  • Résumé

  • The big day is here. It’s early morning, Sheena arrives on the block - 126th Street in Harlem. Already buzzing, the atmosphere is electric. An ocean of hip-hop genius, gathering at the same time, at the same place, for a photo taken by Gordon Parks. Concerns loom large for many of the attendees: will the day be peaceful? Will there be beef? Will the rappers settle down long enough for Mr. Parks to snap the shot?

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.
