This ain't East Coast. This ain't West Coast.

Overview

Bursting with banging tunes, illuminating and often hilarious interviews, stunning breaking, graffiti pieces and live performances, the film charts the arrival of hip hop in the UK in the 1980s, the formation of home-grown Britcore crews and their success in Europe but invisibility in the UK, the dark days of rave when UK hip hop was a pariah, up to recent years where it has found a distinct English accent and bounded out of the U.S. shadow.
