The lowdown on Netflix's 'The Get Down'

Hosted by and

Australian filmmaker Baz Luhrmann explores the birth of hip-hop – 1977 in the South Bronx – in the new Netflix series The Get Down. Luckily, the series employed an impressive list of collaborators and consultants, including Grandmaster Flash and Kurtis Blow, who weren’t just there for the birth of hip-hop – they fathered it.
