IT'S YOURS: HIP-HOP & THE INTERNET is an indie feature-length documentary by Marguerite de Bourgoing that explores how Hip-Hop's use of the Internet revolutionized the music industry.
Filmed over a decade, the film made its world premiere in London at the Doc N Roll Film Festival in 2019 under the title "IT'S YOURS (A Story of Hip-Hop & the Internet)."
Its U.S. debut followed at the Pan-African Film Festival in Los Angeles in 2020, and it has since been featured worldwide in film festivals, universities and community events.
In 2021, ARTE France acquired and updated the film in co-production with Kidam Films, for broadcast in France , Germany, Italy, and Poland. In 2024, it was picked up for global distribution by Under The Milky Way and is available to stream on Prime as well as all the major VOD platforms. Coming to Tubi soon.
