Nashville’s pride in our music is justified, but there is so much more that we should be celebrating as a city with just as much fanfare. Standout MCs and organizers JusBam and AL-D brought together an extensive crew from across the wide realm of Nashville hip-hop to tell the story of the 1960 lunch counter sit-ins — an integral part of our rich civil rights history. The Sit-In Mixtape, which incorporates a slew of original raps in a film made at NECAT’s PEG Studios, stars JusBam as Diane Nash, Remsteele as the Rev. James Lawson along with many others in a head-nodding, hip-dipping effort to keep this history at the center of the stories we tell ourselves about Music City.
