Netflix has announced Rapture, an original eight-episode documentary series that dives deep into the world of Hip Hop. The series is set to premiere March 30.
Nas, Dave East, Just Blaze, Rapsody, Logic, T.I., G-Eazy, 2 Chainz, and A Boogie wit da Hoodie are among some of the names teased in the show’s first trailer. In an accompanying press release, Netflix said Rapture will allow audiences to experience “the artists’ lives with their families and friends, to sitting front row in the studio and grinding on tour, to experiencing the ecstatic power of moving the crowd.”
Netflix’s announcement comes just under a week after SHOWTIME unveiled their Hip Hop original Word is Bond, which is set to premiere on February 16. Interestingly, both documentaries are directed by famed Hip Hop filmmaker, Sacha Jenkins.
