HIP-HOP MOVIES 101:NOW LET’S KEEP IT REAL!!!
Now as “REAL” as some “HIP-HOP MOVIES” may seem, not all of them convey “REAL HIP-HOP”. The movie’s that started it all for me was of course KRUSH GROVE, which debuted LL‘s raw energy, WILD STYLE, and BREAKIN!!! Now There are so many other movies to name so let’s get started with one of the best in DO THE RITE THING, A Spike Lee Joint!!! This movie nearly single handedly helped launch the Legendary Revolutionary Golden Era in conjunction with PUBLIC ENEMIES video FIGHT THE POWER!!!(check out FIGHT THE POWER in PUBLIC ENEMY 101:FIGHT THE POWER) Then there’s of course NEW JACK CITY, BOY’S IN THE HOOD, & MENACE TO SOCIETY, All of which beaconed in the street knowledge era. And then of course there’s SCARFACE. Now let’s just stop here for a moment. SCARFACE didn’t start out as a HIP-HOP joint but is now a Cult Classic in “ALL” Hip-Hop circles!!! It doesn’t matter if your EAST-COAST, WEST COAST,THE DIRTY SOUTH or whatever!!! Now nearly every rapper no matter who they are has a piece of SCARFACE memorabilia in their crib…period. Then there’s the comedies like FRIDAY 1,2 & 3,TALES FROM THE HOOD,CB4 and HALFBAKED!!! Then there are more current romantic HIP-HOP flicks like LOVE & BASKETBALL,BROWN SUGAR and HONEY all dope. Then there is more serious flicks like BELLY staring DMX , NAS, & METHOD MAN. Also CLOCKERS,COLORS,WAIST DEEP COVER,BELLY and then there is 8 MILE Ah yes 8 MILE: Passion. Drive. Perseverance. Unfortunately I’m not a “Big” Emenim fan because he made an “underground” racist song called “OH SO MANY STYLES” when he first started out. But he is said to be “THE ABSOLUTE BEST FREESTYLE BATTLE RAPPER IN THE WORLD!” Being from Detroit myself I didn’t like the way they treated me either, that’s why I stay in Miami now. Plus the fact MIAMI is a virtual paradise. Yea man I didn’t like the way they treated me and IM BLACK!!! So I could imagine what he went threw. If you have seen this movie 8 time’s watch it again because it show’s you what it take’s to persevere in this game we call Hip-Hop. Now is it a “true” Hip-Hop flick? Well it is the highest grossing & critically acclaimed Hip-Hop movie ever made and maybe that’s what makes it “REAL” But ya boy CALI doesn’t measure real by the dollar!!! I’m CALLOUS the FUTURISTIC MILITANT and I measure REAL by what you HALLA!!! Last but not least is another Spike Lee joint and one of my best pick’s of all time BAMBOOZLED!!! staring DAMON WAYANS, SAVION GLOVER, JADA PINKETT-SMITH, TOMMY DAVIDSON, MICHAEL RAMPAPORT and a laundry list of some of HIP-HOP’S FINEST like MOSDEF:Big Blak Afrika,CHARLIE BALTIMORE:Smooth Blak,GANO GRILLS:Double Blak,DJ SCRATCH:Jo Blak,muMs da Schemer:Hard Blak and THE SCIENTIFIC CHAMPION CANIBUS:Mo Blak as THE MAU MAU’s!!! OH yeah M.C. SEARCH 2 as 1/16th Blak.Now there are much more movies to be named but
this is a Blog and I would be going on for days so I will end it on BAMBOOZLED!!!PLUS MY MAIN MAN CANIBUS THE SCIENTIFIC CHAMPION IZ IN THIS ONE!!!(REREAD CANIBUS 101:THE SCIENTIFIC CHAMPION!!!FOR A MORE DETAILED ANALYSIS ON THIS SCIENTIFIC MASTER OF CEREMONY) So as an act of “PURE” HIP-HOP magic hear is THE MAU MAU’s in BLAK IZ BLAK!!!WHY???I KEEP IT CALLOUS!!!
