What up Highbrid Nation.  I’m amped to go see “Notorious” tonight.  I’m not expecting too much but it’s going to be sweet to see Brooklyn’s Finest honored on the silver screen.

Speaking of B.I.G. and movies, I came across this very unique project.  Its called the City of God’s Son.  Described as an art installation, this abstract cinematic feature combines theater and opera set on the backdrop of the Golden Era of Hip Hop.  Paying homage to the classics while grasping the spirit of the remix by combining elements of music videos to create the visuals set ablaze with what I anticipate will be a killer soundtrack.

Here’s how the project is described on its website cityofgodson.com.  I strongly suggest you check it out and peep the trailer for the flick after the jump.

“City of God’s Son” is an experimental hip-hop opera starring Nas, Jay Z, Ghostface, Biggie Smalls, Raekwon, Samuel Jackson, Delroy Lindo, and Laurence Fishburne. It is a crime drama/coming of age tale of three fictitious characters growing up in a crime ridden city in a jungle. This project explores the icon of the gangster in modern media, and weaves musical history and gangster film history into an operatic music based story of brotherhood and survival. An homage to 90’s New York hip-hop, “City of God’s Son” is the redefinition of the remix. Featuring legendary soul singer Joe Bataan.

This is what hip hop is supposed to be about, taking the elements of the past flip them, bounce them and create a whole new remixed work of art.  Enjoy.
