The latest offering from Michael Cukr‘s Xorbent series profiles South LA native Donta Hill.

From boxing to skateboarding to modelling for Louis Vuitton, Donta’s level headed approach is a testament to his success. Growing up in and around Crenshaw and Slauson, Donta talks candidly about his Father’s incarceration, being conscious and the role both played in avoiding gang life.

As always, Cukr’s editing is on point, splicing together mic’d up interviews with archival clips in trademark rhythmic fashion, with friends Blake Myers & Julian Klincewicz providing additional footage to boot.
