Who´s performing the ´theme´ pçayin´ while Ice-T shakes his behind?

[Haz657]

"Freddies Dead" by Curtis Mayfield, off of the Super Fly soundtrack. A great album, check it out.

a lot of sociological race politics talk here doesn't change the fact that I dig hot women who pull knives and throwing stars out of their big fros.

I want every soundtrack of every blaxpoitation film. That would make me a very happy man.

see that? everytime someone says something like FUCK john lennon, FUCK elvis, FUCK quentin tarrantino...suckers jump out their bitch box and act like you committed a sin for not liking their work. Meanwhile, most of the actors or directors that came out of blaxploitation people'll NEVER know. Yet, suckers want to give praise to quentin tarantino like he's yet another cracker lord and savior or some shit. PATHETIC! "quentin likes us...YAYYY!" OK, quentin, you can call us nigger! YAYY quentin!!

white people always say: "i always loved Ray charles, i always loved jimi hendrix, aw..deud bob marley was a GOD..." yeah right!when they get the spotlight so aunt jemimas & mudboys can run to jump on their bandwagon. Where it REALLY counts, they always give credit to the beatles, elvis and the rolling stones. That being said, quentin tarantino is no different. he's a white boy who cums on himself because HE can use the N word...and his movies suck. Now stop thinking only your opinion counts

Excuse me for being a little off-topic here Haz657, but I've felt that something should be said here to this guy.

This is some great stuff here. This is the 3rd documentary on Baaadasss Cinema that I've seen here & loving it.

Thanks a lot.

With all due respect but that's total bullshit. Tarantino is a huge fan of Badass Cinema, he considers Melvin Van Peebles as one of his folk heroes, & his films made Pam Grier & Samuel L. legends of black heroes again. He's a passionate, generous man & Ice-T KNOWS IT.Granted his flicks glamourized The 'N' Word as being a cool thing to say, but damn-it so did Blaxploitation in the 70s. If you were a fan of Badass Cinema, you would've known that.Now relax & enjoy the show.
