Rap music. Analyses "Hope" by Twista and Faith Evans. "Rite of Spring" (1912) by Igor Stravinsky. Uses Cuban music as an example of complex and popular dance music which fuses African rhythms with European harmony and local percussion instruments.

Looks at anticipation, using multiple runners and "En Guantanamo".

  • Stravinsky was not a classical composer, asshole. 

  • I'd really like to see an episode of this on noise

  • mmmm... hot, steamy, and... musical

  • @crazypianolady cry out loud, yeah, dude(what's his name) BREAKS-IT-DOWN!

  • I remember the The Message from Grandmaster Flash from GTA VIce CIty woot. Good times haha

  • I´d trade my suma cum laude degree in macro economics + my Merceces Benz for that son sense of rythm.

  • Nobody will ever convince me that "Twista" or whatever the fuck his name is will ever be half, or even one eighth, as rhythmically mature as Elvin Jones.

  • I've never seen such a clear, simple and interesting documentary as this one!

  • Is there anyone else alive that has such a comprehensive understanding and appreciation of so many different styles of music and is able to communicate it so effectively?
