Synopsis

Public Enemy’s Chuck D leads a cast of hip-hop icons and leading African-American and Latino cultural commentators as they chart the factors that led to the birth of the revolutionary art form of hip-hop in 1970s New York, as well as the creation of the seminal hit The Message. They evoke a picture of how, after the turbulence of the 60s and the civil rights struggles, desperate social conditions and the experience of countless dispossessed people of colour living in a city mired in crisis helped give birth to a new art form.

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
Ortiz Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
