Music & Movement

From Eazy and Dre to Kendrick

The sound of this city, told through artifacts you can stand next to. Lyric sheets, mixing-board photos, fan-made flyers, and the actual microphone from a 1989 NWA studio session. A room that hums even when it's empty.

Curator's Note

Hip-hop changed this city's relationship to its own image. This room is about that turn.
