Atlanta's contributions to the hip-hop community are endless. While some people only acknowledge New York and L.A. as the cities that hip-hop has grown out of, Atlanta artists were creating timeless rap music at the time, too. Artists like MC Shy D and Mojo were some of the first rappers to hit the local scene, and they paved the way for bigger artists including Kris Kross, Arrested Development, and, of course, Outkast.
VH1's "ATL: The Untold Story Of Atlanta's Rise In The Rap Game" documentary chronicles the city's hip-hop roots. From early studio sessions with Big Boi and Andre, to the emergence of Kris Kross, the show captures the entire Atlanta hip-hop experience from the start.
With guests like Killer Mike, T.I., MC Shy D and more, "ATL: The Untold Story Of Atlanta's Rise In The Rap Game" is a must watch for any true hip-hop head.
