Fredro Starr<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0is taking the energy of hip-hop\u2019s golden era from the stage to the screen with\u00a0The Tunnel<\/em>, a new film inspired by the legendary New York nightclub and the experiences that made it unforgettable.<\/p>\n

Fredro Starr has spent more than three decades making sure people feel something.<\/p>\n

As a founding member of the legendary Queens hip-hop group Onyx, Starr helped usher hardcore rap into the mainstream with the group\u2019s 1993 platinum debut,\u00a0Bacdafucup<\/em>, and the explosive smash \u201cSlam.\u201d The song reached No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and helped redefine what a hip-hop crowd could look and sound like, bringing the intensity of slam dancing into rap.<\/p>\n

Now Starr is channeling that same raw New York energy into filmmaking.<\/p>\n

He recently hosted a premiere of\u00a0The Tunnel<\/em>\u00a0on a luxurious New York rooftop, giving guests an early look at the film before its September release. Radio\/TV personality\u00a0Jazmyn Summers\u00a0<\/strong>was there for Radio One to bring you the tea<\/strong>, catching up with Starr about the project and the inspiration behind it.<\/p>\n

And the inspiration for\u00a0The Tunnel<\/em>\u00a0is deeply personal.<\/p>\n

Before there was a screenplay, there was a night in New York.<\/p>\n

Starr recalled walking through the Chelsea projects on his way to The Tunnel when a group of men attempted to rob him of his jewelry and sneakers. The experience was traumatic, but what happened after he made it to the club stayed with him for an entirely different reason.<\/p>\n

\u201cI got to the Tunnel, had the best time of my life,\u201d Starr recalled.<\/p>\n

That unlikely collision of danger and exhilaration planted the idea for a story. Starr initially envisioned\u00a0The Tunnel<\/em>\u00a0as a six-episode television series, but eventually turned the concept into a film, writing and directing the project himself.<\/p>\n

For Starr, making the movie was also about preserving a piece of New York culture while creating something new.<\/p>\n

The original Tunnel, which operated in Manhattan\u2019s Chelsea neighborhood from 1986 to 2001, became one of the city\u2019s most legendary nightlife destinations, particularly during hip-hop\u2019s golden era. Its reputation grew alongside the artists, DJs and audiences who made New York nightlife a cultural force.<\/p>\n

Starr knows that world firsthand.<\/p>\n

But rather than wait for Hollywood to come knocking, he took the independent route.<\/p>\n

\u201cI shot the first episode with my money I had saved up in my piggy bank,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

It must have been a big azz piggy bank but that DIY mentality feels very familiar coming from Starr. Onyx itself emerged from South Jamaica, Queens, before connecting with Run-DMC\u2019s Jam Master Jay, who signed the group to his JMJ Records label.<\/p>\n

Onyx went on to create a sound that was impossible to ignore.\u00a0Bacdafucup<\/em>\u00a0delivered a darker, harder edge to mainstream rap, while \u201cSlam\u201d became a cultural phenomenon.\u00a0Jam Master Jay<\/strong>\u00a0and producer\u00a0Chyskillz\u00a0<\/strong>helped shape the album\u2019s sound, while Starr,\u00a0Sticky Fingaz, Sonny Seeza<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Big DS<\/strong>\u00a0brought the unmistakable Mad Face energy that made Onyx stand apart.<\/p>\n

More than 30 years later, Starr sees\u00a0The Tunnel<\/em>\u00a0as another opportunity to do what hip-hop taught him to do in the first place:\u00a0make something happen. Sticky Fingaz stars in the movie.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cEverybody picking up a camera because they not waiting for nobody,\u201d he said. \u201cThat\u2019s the move. Just make it happen.\u201d<\/p>\n

That philosophy extends beyond Starr himself. One of the most meaningful parts of\u00a0The Tunnel<\/em>\u00a0is his decision to give young, inexperienced performers an opportunity to get in front of the camera.<\/p>\n

Starr specifically pointed to\u00a0Ja Jacquetore, Razor, Mag Mason<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Big Al<\/strong>, among others, as performers who had never acted in a film before.<\/p>\n

For Starr, that is part of the reward.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I wanted to do with the Tunnel movie was the same thing\u00a0Forrest Whitaker<\/strong>\u00a0did for me,\u201d he explained. \u201cI want to put young actors who\u2019ve never even acted before in a movie.\u201d<\/p>\n

He sees the possibility of what could come next.<\/p>\n

\u201cWho knows where they\u2019re going to be in 10 years? We might have the next\u00a0Michael B. Jordan<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a particularly revealing evolution for an artist whose own career was built on opportunity, mentorship and recognizing what could happen when somebody gets a chance.<\/p>\n

His Legacy is Not an Isolated Chapter<\/h3>\n

And when it comes to his legacy, Starr doesn\u2019t view Onyx as an isolated chapter.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy legacy is part of Run DMC\u2019s legacy, Jam Master Jay\u2019s legacy,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s part of Queen\u2019s legacy. It\u2019s part of New York legacy. It\u2019s part of Def Jam legacy.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe camin the game in the spirit of hip-hop just to make people smile and make people feel good,\u201d Starr told Summers. \u201cThat\u2019s what hip-hop is about.\u201d<\/p>\n

For an artist who built his reputation on making records hit hard, Starr\u2019s newest project is ultimately about something softer: creating opportunities, sparking laughter, telling stories and keeping the culture moving forward.<\/p>\n

The Tunnel<\/em>\u00a0drops September 1, bringing a piece of New York\u2019s legendary nightlife mythology to a new generation while giving Fredro Starr another canvas on which to leave his mark.<\/p>\n

The Onyx chapter isn\u2019t over.<\/p>\n

Starr is simply taking the fire somewhere new.<\/p>\n
