MOVEMENT

Hip-hop is the perfect embodiment of movement in both its nature and history. With roots in the 1970s Bronx, what started as block parties of various Black, Latine, and Caribbean-American communities quickly became the start of a genre — one that was unapologetically new and vibrant. Since its birth, hip-hop has undergone many evolutions, but its power, energy, and conviction remain unchanged, hence why we chose to feature Syndicate in our “Movement” issue. Their eccentric poses, intuitive improvisation, palpable enthusiasm, and fierce synchronicity masterfully contribute to the enduring legacy of hip-hop.
