Darby Wheeler is an accomplished television producer and
filmmaker whose credits include The Strombo Show and Matty
Matheson's Dead Set on Life.
His latest project, Hip-Hop Evolution, is an award-winning Netflix
docu-series that profiles the history of hip-hop music through
in-depth interviews with influential artists.
We talk to Darby about assuming the enormous responsibility of
telling the story of hip-hop music, why host Shad got nervous while
interviewing Q-Tip and KRS-One, and that time in high school when
he and his friends drove to Detroit to see a Public Enemy
concert.
