Shabazz is best known for his posed street photographs of urban-styled young Black people in New York City. His work records self-determination and joy, and is positioned as collaborative with his subjects. Now considered an unparalleled archive of street culture in the 1980s and 90s, Shabazz's imagery is intentional, exuberant, and proud.
