Coinciding with next weeks release of Year of The Dragon, this 20 minute mini-doc on Busta Rhymes comes your way via Google Play. With a bulk of the interviews happening at this years Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival (where Busta reunited with Leaders of the New School), various folks close to the rambunctious MC reflect on his past (Spliff Star recalls Bustas early rap/reggae rhyme style and time spent drummin and breakdancin as a kid) and articulate why he has had such a storied career (says ATCQs Phife Dawg: He has dope albums, he has a better stage show than most and his cadences, different flows and energy are second to none.). Busta himself talks about listening to Kool DJ Red Alert on WHBI as a youngin and making pause tapes of Cold Crush and Force MCs, his move to Long Island from East Flatbush BK, being inspired by a Dana Dane show, the formation of L.O.N.S., how Chuck D gave him his name, and the making of Scenario. All that, plus a look at his successful solo career.
