Over the summer, the Shan Nicholson directed documentary Rubble Kings took audiences on a journey through a gang-riddled 1960's-70's New York. Holding back nothing, the film explored everything from the widespread gang violence and the peace that ended it to the beginnings of what would become hip-hop.

Serving as an audio companion to the film, DJs Sammy Needlz, Rok One, Tahleim and director Shan Nicholson have put together an official Rubble Kings Mixtape. Comprised of music from the era (War, Syl Johnson, The Rolling Stones, James Brown, etc.), the influence on today's music can clearly be heard as many of these tunes have since been sampled time and again.
