These social themes run through CONNECTED, augmented by the type of hip Afro funk-jazz mix that distinguished early archetypes of this rap style such as Gil-Scott Heron.","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47014427525407,"sku":"731451274329","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/e0c44925338824c321e038e6de55365d.jpg?v=1779966502","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/connected-uk","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
