We've occasionally noted the ties between hardboiled/noir and
hip-hop. Well, I was reading Yes Yes Y'All, a history of
hip-hop culture, and ran across this:
Ray Chandler: Pioneering hip-hop promoter who ran the Black
Door club/Black Door Productions and booked Grandmaster Flash
and the Furious 5. Known for his imposing stature,
no-nonsense attitude, and his hiring of the notorious
Cassanova Crew as is security.
Down those mean Bronx Streets a man must go?
