Dragged my family to see this yesterday. The freestyles were great, the interviews were straight, and my girl and I came out with a better appreciation for the old school. I'll be writing a review for the blog tomorrow.

Only complaints I had was, they didn't go to the south, they went to Detroit and only interviewed Em and Royce, and they didn't interview anyone from the new school.

It was funny in the theater cause it was us and a small handful of white people. First freestyle is Grandmaster Caz calling everyone nikka, and I'm looking around the theater like

Just got back from this...pretty dope.

I was reading an article on the making of the doc...and Ice said the original cut was about 4 hours long...hope he releases that version on Blu-Ray/DVD...would love to see that.


I liked the "rawness" of the filming...you had motherfukkers on the street taking pics and trying to be on camera and Ice calling them out

During the Dre segment I was like when he was claiming he's only never been in the studio for 2 weeks...drop something then a$$hole.

It was funny when Ice lost his temper and told his goons to take care of those cats.

Immortal Technique really surprised me. I thought it was funny how Ice asked Dre about Pac when Pac hated Dre.

Hope all the raps and songs get released as an album and can't wait for the 4 hour blu-ray

 

[Pop123]

[JulesWinfield]
