this movie is on point on so many levels. it starts out takin it back with fat lip from the pharcyde freesytling. so it covers the hip hop heads from back in the day. then it does everything from showing ice-t freestyling, to interviews with tupac, to showing why puff daddy was originally named as such. krs-one gets more than his fair share of mic time and thats okay but there's just too many great acts and too many interesting interviews too pass this one up. its more hardcore than the stuff you see on vh-1 (even though that stuff's alright too), its edgier and rawer than most of the tapes you can buy on the history of rap/hip-hop, and it covers more without being too long than any specific documentary on b-boys or graphitti artists... in short, don't miss it. its freakin awesome.
