The movie should of have way more of Chuck and forgotten about stupid Beyonce, she was a joke! CHuck is the father of rock and roll! Mos Def did a good job.

@howlingsandy credited though never got one royalty, ever, in his lifetime, for his (Arthur Crudup's) blues or rock classics, covered by just about everybody at some point.

@coy0te9 (Genre PR/artist's ethnicity crossover-marketing doors). Arthur Goldberg's (then Rupe, old family name) Specialty Records began w/gospel & "race records," black listener market, later rock. Fiszel Czyż (Phil Chess w/bro/dad)'s 3 labels marketed R&B/blues to black customers, later rock. Yes, both "white boys" if you dumb down resumes (wink) Sam Phillips specifically sought "an" Elvis, whose 3 earliest gold records were faithful covers of OPENLY-praised CREDITED inspiration Arthur Crudup.

@howlingsandy

I don't take anything away from Mister Sam and Elvis but they didn't do anything for Chuck Berry and Little Richard. That was two different white boys named Phil Chess and Art Rupe.

I don't like rap or hip hop very much, and know nothing about Mos Def's music/career (except I've heard of him), but what a fantastic actor! He happens to nail this role as Chuck Berry - even looks like him!

@kht777 did u know that beyonce played etta james so if u take her out u taking out one of the best female artist of her time

[VitalSoX]

@kht777 Lol beyonce did a AWSOME job in that movie noobass aka Etta James. ;) Etta was amazing so does Chuck.

[DaviJonezz]

I thought Mos Def was an awesome actor after I saw "Something the Lord Made." I loved his Chuck Berry!!!

@MUJAHID56787 they weren't talking about Etta James, just that Beyonce didn't really do a good job portraying her, in which i agree. but not taking anything from Etta, shes's a legend

[colourfulartist]

Mos Def is a good rapper but a better actor. He did Chuck Berry justice in Cadillac Records
