The Get Down is a relatively new Netflix original show that came out last August. The Get Down is about teenagers living in the Bronx in the late 1970s early 1980s, their lives and music discovery at the end of the disco era leading into the hip-hop era. With executive producers such as hip hop legends Nas and Grand Master Flash, this show is oozing with music that will make any music lover so appreciative and addicted to this show.
In each episode of this series there are many popular songs from the late 70s and early 80s that make its way into the scenes, also incorporated into the episodes are songs made specifically for this show and the writers and producers do a really good job of making the songs sound like they were made in this era even though they were made and produced in 2016.
Some artists music featured in this show include of course Grand Master Flash (he is a producer of the show) also Earth, Wind & Fire, Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin, Kool and the Gang, Nina Simone, The Supremes, Stevie Wonder, James Brown and Donna Summer. Those are just some of the artists that have music in this 6 episode show, and with more episodes on the way and the show moving more into the hip-hop era the new episodes are sure to have much more amazing artists within the show. This show is definitely a must watch, so get up and watch The Get Down. :)
