Uprising: Hip Hop and The L.A. Riots (VH1 Roc Docs) | Full Episode


"Hip Hop and The L.A. Riots" highlights the relationship between Hip-Hop music and the 1992 Los Angeles Riots. Executive produced and narrated by Snoop Dogg, the show reflected on one of the most significant periods of US history.

Featuring commentary by Nas, Ice-T, the late Eazy-E and several important political figures, ‘Uprising’ is truly one of the most important pieces of the Vh1 Rock Docs series.
