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.

Watch that wording.... "born out of Bronx gang life" is not where Hiphop came from, but more as an alternative to the violence and social injustices.... Don't believe the hype.
