Trailer Released for "The Get Down", a New Netflix Show About the Birth of Hiphop in the Bronx

A new original series on Netflix titled The Get Down is all about the birth of hiphop in South Bronx during the 1970s.

1970s New York City – broken down, beaten up, violent, cash strapped, dying. Told through the lives and music of a ragtag crew of South Bronx teens - from Bronx tenements, to the SoHo art scene, CBGBs, Studio 54, and even the glass towers of the just-built World Trade Center – The Get Down is a sweeping saga of loyalty, love and betrayal, and the transformation of New York City.

The Get Down will be released on Netflix for your binge watching later this year.
