WHAT THEY ARE SAYING ABOUT THE FILM
Like the classic early-'80s American films Wild Style and Style Wars ,
Hip Hop Colony is a historical document, capturing a fast-developing
culture at a seminal moment in time - Erick K. Arnold - East Bay
express

Hip Hop Colony is an educational well-paced gem which should be
included in high school and college campus curriculum's across the
globe in an effort to dispel stereotypes about our kinship, Kenya, and
about African Diaspora - Vanessa Morman - Houston Black Film Festival

Hip Hop Colony is a film that any person interested in learning about
the global impact of rap must see!! - Adisa Banjoko, author
"Lyrical Swords Vol. 1: Hip Hop and Politics in the Mix"

This piece is Chock-a-block! - GA - freelance writer

Kenya is not just about Lions, giraffes and fast running men, . . . it's
also about Studios and Hip-Hop! - Tedd Josiah - Music Producer
