Following the trail of rap, graffiti, DJing and breakdance in Europe: in cooperation with the popular music journalist Niko Hüls, Porsche presents the documentary "Back 2 Tape". Amsterdam, Barcelona, Berlin, Copenhagen, London and Paris: these are the stops on a roadtrip that explores the roots of an urban youth culture that crosses borders and language barriers. Beyond lucrative promotional tours or packed concert halls, hip hop expert Niko Hüls meets rappers, DJs, street artists and dancers, while diving into the creative scenes of European metropolises to shed light on the contribution this culture makes to European cohesion. Featuring big names from the scene such as Kool Savas, Lord Esperanza, Pete Philly, Duan Wasi, Josi Miller, Edson Sabajo, Apex Zero, El Xupet Negre, Lars Pedersen, Toni-L and Michael "Mikel" Rosemann. It quickly becomes clear that hip hop is not just a fashion trend or a music genre - it has the power to connect people regardless of country or background, while communicating values such as respect, tolerance and passion across all generations.
