10 Corso Como Gallery in New York, NY is hosting a photo exhibit by British photgraphers Janette Beckmand and David Corio, along with never-ssen-before Getty images until Feb. 2, 2020.

Focusing on 1981-1993, the collection uses turntablism, MC’ing, graffiti writing and breaking to categorically display the unique prints, with include Run DMC, Slick Rick, Salt-N-Pepa, Big Daddy Kane, LL Cool J, The Fat Boys, and more.
