When Hamilton debuted off Broadway in 2015, telling America's founding story through the language of hip-hop, it became a sensation, immediately yanking the American songbook into the 21st century.
Hamilton has had several lasting effects, encouraging producers to merge history with pop scores, establishing new industry norms for robust social media campaigns and direct promotion.

Miranda explains that the legacy of Hamilton will change over the years, following the sentiment that 'you have no control who lives, who dies, who tells your story.'
