25th Anniversary Of The Bombin' Documentary

“To throw up a huge graffiti piece. Also known as tagging a lot of areas in one night. Bombin' isn't meant to be senseless vandalism, it is meant to be art just like other graffiti.”

- Definition of the word Bombin' taken from the Urban Dictionary.

It's been 25 years since the first and only airing of Bombin' documentary on the UK's Channel 4 back in the Summer of 1987. Now I was only 2 at the time, but I can only imagine that it made an impression on quite lot of the youth at the time. Just ask James Lavelle of Mo'Wax/UNKLE fame. There's a good quote from him on the influence this documentary had on him right here.

Bombin' was directed by documentary filmmaker Dick Fontaine and was a sequel to his earlier 1984 documentary "Beat This!", once again taking a look at how American hip-hop culture was making its way…
