You love to hear the story, again and again, of how it all got started, way back when... Sorry, is this thing on? OK, so Sacha Jenkins is an eminent writer/journalist/tv producer who co-founded a little magazine that changed the world. He's also a longtime "F.O.C." which could either stand for "friend of Complex" or "father of Complex" (they're both true). Dude knows what he's talking about, and in this video he talks about Queens and rap and growing up in Queens and currents and undercurrents and a bunch of other really interesting shit in under four minutes (he's a little more to the point than we are). Check it out. [Nah Right via Media Gasface]
