    Love, Love, LOVED It

    by lameishasherri

    Enlightening, Engaging and Entertaining: just three words to describe the quality of this film. I have no complaints ... no "aw, how come they didn't do/say/show this that or the other". It's a MUST see for all aspiring emcees, especially the wannabies. I'm gonna watch it again

    Excellent especially if you don't know rap

    by Chicago_48

    I am old school (Teddy, Teena, Aretha) and rap is not something I can get into. What rappers I know about are Grandmaster Flash, Kurtis Blow and Run-DMC, but I never really got into the lyrics. This movie basically teaches you the abc's of rap. What surprised me was how literate and educated these rappers are. They are not dummies. Ice-T did a great job as a director of this documentary.

    Wish it was longer...

    by BBKG1979

    EXCELLENT... just wish it was longer, I could watch a movie like this all day everyday. I know Ice tried to get ahold of several people but couldn't or had to edit out a lot. This definitely takes you deep inside the minds of a veteran rapper and also gives you different perspective of Hip Hop culture. Whether you like the music or not, I believe if you see this it will either change your mind or enhance how you already feel about Hip Hop culture. Thank you GOD for giving us Hip Hop. I LOVE YOU!!

    A must-see for any fans of rap music

    by umjames

    Ice-T interviews a lot of fundamental rap artists from the 70s/80s through now, particularly artists from NYC, Detroit, and LA. I'd love to see a sequel to this movie that includes artists from other areas of the country (like the South, Chicago (although Common and Kanye are in this one)).
