Back in July we interviewed photographer Claudio Abreu, creator of the popular YouTube Hip-Hop archival channel, HipHopVCR. Abreu speaks about how his appreciation for life led to him archiving every possible moment from his earliest memories, such as 1990s Chicago Bulls games, up until adulthood. Abreu also goes into how he started archiving footage for selfish reasons, and that developing into something selfless as he began to document his family and archive footage for Blacks and Latinos. We eventually end up speaking about the never-before-seen 2001 JAY-Z Hot 97 Summer Jam performance that blew up the channel, thus leading to YouTube shutting the channel down due to music and video copyright issues.
