The Backstory To The Presumed First Ever Photo Of N.W.A. (Video)
Originally written for KCET's Artbound in 2012, Oliver Wang (aka O-Dub) revisited this story for the 2015 Leimert Park Book Fair and decided to record it as a narrated slideshow. It tells the story behind the photo that ended up on N.W.A.'s "Panic Zone" 12" and the "N.W.A. and the Posse" compilation album.
