Photographer Jamel Shabazz is one of the most important figures documenting the early days of hip-hop -- his career is full of classic photos from the '80s and beyond, and has been featured in everything from the recent doc Fresh Dressed to the cover art for The Roots'Undun. Now, Oscilloscope is set to release its documentary about Shabazz himself, titled Jamel Shabazz: Street Photographerand directed by Wild Style's Charlie Ahearn, on VOD. (Thanks to Tribeca Film for pointing this out.) Check out the trailer below, download the movie here, and hop over to a gallery of some of Shabazz's photos.
