[b00mh34d5h07]

ysee, this is the kind of media that makes youtube a library of knowledge and experiences. it was definitely worth an hour of my time. this would be a great video to show any greenhorn or pro who's looking not only to flow but to throw themselves into this intense culture of self discovery and grow.

[ern363]

great video should have been a movie in theaters !!

[JayxxRock]

dude kills it at 37:53 just talkin about meeting a girl.

[playaandthepimp]

[OfficialTwigg]

@cvstheabstrac I wish teens my age could realize what Hip Hop truly is :( (I'm 14 btw haha)

[cvstheabstract]

@OfficialTwigg

Same here,The So called BET is Promoting wack artists, who lack the conscious mind, Creativity,Originality and character,All these today artist compare to oldskool are Garbage,there music explains about,Swagg,sex, promoting men to treat there women like hoes and stay fresh,HIP HOP LOST THERE TRUE Artists, who had a message to there music n Love for people n music

[OfficialTwigg]

@cvstheabstract Agree 1000000%!

[cvstheabstract]

@OfficialTwigg

=D, And also in order to be a true artist you must be true to yourself and the fans,Cause they are the one who are looking u to you and getting inspiration,That why today generation is inspired by today rap bullshit

[ThePhazeyPhaze]

What's that thing supernatural holding when he was spitting? It was a purple, thing that like a microphone speaker? What is it...?

[MC0090]

seminal work....may be for hip hop what matt/mark/luke and john is for the bible...showcasing a simple yet often overlooked truth hip hop is a way of life/love/peace and war

[andyli123]

how do u know if they are really freestyling, they could have wrote those shits, all types of different shits, and then when it comes to show time, they'll just throw in what they wrote that make sense for the situation.

[heylookatmeok]

@andyli123 It's obvious to tell when someone's spitting freestyles and writtens. Just need to listen to enough, but it's also one of those if you have to ask you have a lot to learn questions.

[CAZPERsayz]

Ladies and gentlemen. for your safety, please become passive beings.

Ladies and gentlemen. for your safety, please watch TV regularly and eat processed food.

Ladies and gentlemen, for your safety, fear interaction.

Ladies and gentlemen, for your safety, fear to speak to the person next to you.

[Beast82291]

"I dont know why we neva got no money. Nobody neva put they hat down."

-Mos Def

[ErikForeman]

Truth.

[songojin]

Man right when the first credit song kicked in I was wracking my brain thinking like, "where the fuck have i heard that beat frommm!" then i had the aha moment. Gang Starr - Jazz Music

[DoPeMaN60]

REAL shit real hip hop....

[MrMaxPounder]

And they shut me the fuck down over this shit

[morongobob]

haha vincent gallo at around 8:40

[buckwheat333]

i think this might be one of the most interesting movies i have ever watched and i loved every moment and i watched the whole thing in one sitting

[ratm1211]

You should also watch This is the Life. A documentary on the LA underground. I highly recommend to any fan of music...

[reh629]

i am sooo relieved. real hip hop is still alive.

[themagicbus]

this movie is old

[BrAnDoN919]

THE SON TOLD THE SUN THAt 2 SUNS CANT SHINE TOGETHER LMFAO. Ah man that preacher was raw son

[skylinevq35]

This is one sick HIP HOP VID MAN. Makes me want to go back to rappin and kickin beats decipherin

[JTLnotfromtheATL]

this nigga supernatural is a damn beast

[ratm1211]

Funny how they have a picture of the Heavyweights but they barely talk about them in the movie.

What about the footage of Supernat with Alien Nation? How come they didn't show all the footage? There was a cypher Supernat, Naptron, and I think Phoenix Orion but the only footage they used was Supernaturals...

[Revolt714]

Holy fucking shit, this is just one big ass hip-hop history documentary. WORD IS BOND, SON!!!!

[YEE941]

MTV RIFF RAFF IS BETTER

[Northview100]

50:07...hot az hell

[notor1ousguhmz]

Damn Supernat fucking MURDERS the mic.

[airjunior310]

that's crazy that people in the video be talking about Illuminati at 44:16

[SoulSnatchaz]

nice PackFm is also in this

[MoeGigz]

I've been in this music biz game for 30+ years and I will say this again...There is no money in freestyle! If you want to empress the peeps on the street, kewl.

But NO producer worth a damn is going to work with a freestyler. $300+ hr studio time and you can't even get 2 takes ain't gonna work. So, "keep it real" and stay broke. Be real about the music BUSINESS and have chance to make a dollar. That's my $.02

MoeGigz @}>-`-,--

[ChayDawg64]

How do you mean by can't get two takes?

[A1PownSauce]

u r ridiculous. that is how biggie got signed. he was on da street freestyling and guess wat P Diddy came by and signed him with badboy records. so apparently it doesnt look like u in the music biz u rm mor like the music's bitch.

[MoeGigz]

Getting signed is not a career! Please direct me to one their HIT recordings that is frestyle.

[themagicbus]

First of all, fuck you

Anyways, anyone who starts freestyling, rapping, producing, or creating any form of art for money doesn't deserve shit.

The point is that freestyle is magic, just like anytime when humans channel themselves with no interference.

[tnizzle53]

That isnt true.

Some people love the art, and NEED the money. They use it as a stepping stone to get where they need.

Its better than them selling to some baseheads.

[theknod]

truth

it is when you have no respect for the art form

and then just rape it for personal benefit

see lil wayne

50 cent

soulja boy

the only benefit of them rhyming

is that they are not committing crimes

[ssukeul]

they gangsters? nigga plz....

i be the godfather nigga

[ssukeul]

ok...hope you didn't say that expecting for me to believe...peace

[TheRealist]

Truth.. at some point cats need to pay the bills right? All that matters is that in the process of getting cake, you remain humble.

[techn9ne122089]

your so god damn queer

[crazybassplayerdude]

true true

[thrfgd]

thank you finally someone that understands, BUT if you freestyle all the time anyways because you love to WHY NOT get paid to do what you love? But i agree nobody should start it just to make money.

[MyOwnPrivateRhode]

I'm Pound for Pound

Your'e retired

But Humbled before

Only one survivor

Only one wants more

[cctotherr]

and i jizzed in my pants

[MeetTheSpore]

[huskerjeff1]

[dirtydeeds2447]

[RickOnTheKeys]

impossible

everyone in this movie has something to do with real hip hop

pharell is a high sales house negro

a diddy

[HipHopeful09]

52:54 - Dude Officially Snaps LOL!

[Khultan]

Vince the Prince mentioned in beastie groove I didn't know what his function was, Kase 2 was off the hook in Style Wars that's what his free style does, I never smoked a cigar never called a friend a niggar, I got a Fender E. gheetar,I got a finger plucking sitar, I've been going so much far making miles without a car, I'm discovering what I'm uncovering passing by in the cosmic skies like a bright traveling silent star.... Lord Khultan 2009....
