  • Résumé

  • We begin the episode with a revelation that flips the entire script– Gordon Parks is suggested as photographer! The groundbreaking photojournalist, and symbol of African-American creative genius, is perfect, but will he do it? Convincing a masterful legend like Mr. Parks to shoot a hip-hop photo turns out to be quite the challenge, but Sheena and the team won’t take no for an answer. This wasn’t the only hurdle facing the team, it turns a competitor is interfering with the shoot, attempting to sabotage.

About the Creator and Performer - Sheena Lester

About the Creator and Performer

Sheena Lester: Previously an assistant news editor and multiplatform editor at Philadelphia Media Network, Sheena Lester is also the former arts & culture editor of Philadelphia Weekly and former managing editor of BlackAmericaWeb.com. A pioneer in urban music magazines, Lester has served as editor in chief of RapPages and XXL as well as music editor of Vibe, executive editor of 360HipHop.com, and VP of music content at BET Interactive.
She began her foray into journalism at the Los Angeles Sentinel before being hired by Larry Flynt Publications to oversee its flagship rap publication, turning RapPages into an international sensation with its provocative mix of music, advocacy, and culture reporting. She brought that same mix of energy and intellect to New York-based media circles, first at Vibe, then in the top chair at XXL. For the latter, Lester co-produced 1998’s "A Great Day in Hip-Hop," a recreation of Art Kane’s famous "Jazz Portrait" with over 200 rap music greats—convincing legendary photographer Gordon Parks to capture the image for posterity on the same Harlem stoop where the stalwarts of jazz were immortalized 40 years prior.
