rashaad hasani : Funk in Focus

2/4/2020

 
Rashaad Hasani talks about his journey as a popper and the roots of the dance. Rashaad is originally from Harlem/QueensNYC. He grew up in a family full of music and funky. When he moved to DC in 2003, he found mentorship with Junious “House” Brickhouse and would later become Aristic Director of Urban Artistry, an organization devoted to hip hops ancestry and future. Rashaad is a wealth of knowledge on the traditions of funk. This mini-doc made by UMA's Adriana Imhof walks through milestones of Funk music and dance while exploring Rashaad's relationship to genre.
