I'm off work today. I'll watch it because of u.:salute:

IT BETTER BE GOOD!:dahell::ufdup:

breh, I saw CB4 first, it took me a while to get a copy of Fear but it's better music, better parody, better storyline, better documentary style, better in almost every way IMO CB4 has Gusto which is iconic as fukk and they're very similar in a lot of ways too. Fear was written and started shooting first too i think

CB4 had the better concept/story, but Fear was overall funnier to me...

From what I understand the OG concept was Rusty's that someone took and made a more simple/watered down version of it, just like they did with Sprung/Booty call.

FOABH is/was supposed to be Hip Hop's "Spinal Tap". CB4 is a dope movie, but Fear is fukking brilliant lol, just as funny and the music was way better.

I feel like if you stacking up a Hip Hop cinema collection you need both of them.

I'm not expecting people to have seen it when it came out if you were only 2 but it's been 25 years since then and it's fairly easy to get, even on DVD still, it's even on blu ray now. it must be quick and easy to download as well. Maybe CB4 has stayed in the mainstream mind more because of Chris Rock but Fear is the better movie IMO

I never heard of it either. Never heard it referenced

Fear is a classic. Hip-Hop's answer to Spinal Tap, even though slightly different. It's brilliant and the songs are better.

"...Of their eyes?"
"Whose eyes?"
"It's an expression. Don't shoot til you see the whites of their eyes"
"Nah. Don't Shoot Til You See the Whites. Period. End of story."
