Starz announced recently that it's planning to develop a drama series based around the origins of Hip Hop in New York City's South Bronx. The show is called "Turf" and will feature how hip hop was born out of Bronx gang life in the 1970s.

Patrick Macmanus, who has written on Starz's "Marco Polo" and "Noir," will write the script for the show.
