Radical tells two stories: the history of French hip-hop culture and the demise of their major rap magazine, which went by the name of Radikal, says Lewis, a Bronx native who lived in Paris from 2004 to 2011 listening to French rap like Stomy Bugsy and Ministre AMER. I grew up as a kid under the movies of Ridley Scott, Steven Spielberg and George Lucas. I kept getting amped up to pursue film-watching later directors like P.T. Anderson, Sofia Coppola, Christopher Nolan, and of course Spike Lee.
