About the Film
For the people of Cape Town’s Cape Flats, Hip Hop connects them to the region’s ancient energy while providing liberation from both the structures of apartheid South Africa and the neocolonialism that continues to define life in the city for many. Featuring some of Cape Town’s Hip Hop talent, including Ready D, Isaac Mutant, and Mutant’s daughter, Lyrix, this powerful documentary tells the history of Cape Hip Hop, which it uses as both the medium and the message. As one of the interviewees notes, “Hip Hop provided a space in post-apartheid South Africa for people to find each other after centuries of oppression”, an aspect that Notes From The Underground, with its collective archive of voices, memory, and street-corner culture, celebrates and explores in great depth.
