Am 27, and I listen to that, I even wear huge clothes, for today people I am drug addict and dealer, lack of knowledge and understanding is huge. Keep in my, I am Czech not even American, and this style have huge impact on me, when I was in 4th grade I started to listen to it, in 7th or so, I started to wear it.
I was working at a movie theater when this came out, I was about 17. On my break I used to sit and watch this, in between movies I watched it, I loved it then and love it now. THIS IS HIP HOP✊🏼
I saw this, opening day August 25th 1995...with my brother 💪🏼💯 (the week before August 18th, I saw Mortal Kombat...with my mom, opening day as well...at the legendary Hyde Park Theater in Chicago)
I was 9 years old when the documentary came out, as a 35 year old man and seeing it made me realize just how fortunate I was to have grew up in the golden age of hip hop. RIP to biggie smalls, Craig mack , Nate Dogg and jam master jay🙏.
@@highfived so they basically all use the same fake 808 plugin nowadays because' as everyone knows hiphop stars don't earn any money to clear the samples...
i would love to see hip hop and its history given the textbook treatment i can already see all the nested/bulletpoint lists and chapters layout its definitely something that needs to be done
I got a chance to see Run DMC live in Fargo, ND 20 years ago, 2 weeks before Jay died. I carry the ticket stub with me still to this day in my wallet. This is real hip hop, I'm fortunate to have experienced this Era growing up.
I was 20 when this came oug and all I can say is the late 80's to mid 90's the realest hip hop moments we wll nevwe see this again! Hip hop was so diverse. U had concious rap,party anthems,club bangers,some of the best underground rappers ever!!
lil people know the man shown at 35:51 was part of one of the most influential Hip Hop groups in the Japanese Hip Hop scene called Rhymester . This doc was in production in 94 , came out in 95 . The same year their critically acclaimed and historic album called Egotopia came out. 1995 being a very important year in the Japanese hip hop scene. Nothing but bangers were coming out that year. Which did catch the eye of American Hip hop groups and artist such as Souls of Mischief, A.G and Producers like DJ Premier , Buckwild , Pete Rock and Lord Finesse . If you get noticed by Dj Premier and do a collab I think the scene in Japan earned its respect from the New York scene when it comes to how they appreciate the art of Hip Hop. Where the west coast and the South were still fighting to earn that.
I dont mean to be off topic but does anybody know a method to log back into an Instagram account..? I was stupid forgot the password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me.
@Dillon Ryan i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I'd advise all the youngsters to watch this whether they rap or not. Know there was a whole world before you and learn from it. Things were a lot more interesting back then in the 90's. Watch Rhyme & Reason too. I couldn't IMAGINE who would be in it if they tried to make this today.
The nostalgia so real 💯 it seem so obvious but gawtdamn it's just so nice to see the crowds just bein consumed by the experience. Hands in the air not cell phones! These were THE times!! Take me back take me bacccckkkk.
This documentary changed my life when I was around 10/11 years old, 100% one of the best hip hop documentaries from the 90's! Having said that, The Stanley Clarke music at the beginning and throughout the film is absolutely beautiful, anybody know where I can find that masterpiece of a track? ❤🙏🔥
This to me is right at the end of the golden age of hip hop, '87 -'95. After '95 there was still some good music but the amount of money generated changed the industry. This is really before the Bad Boy - Death Row beef blew up, Jay Z still hadn't dropped his first album... the landscape changed a lot very quickly after this. It became all about Tupac, DMX, and then Eminem... and the jiggy era.
I used to listen to the soundtrack all the time but I’ve never actually seen the movie. I was in high school when it came out. It’s actually kind of cool that I’m just seeing it now.
Did anyone notice how at the official end of the movie, they show showed you the beginning of the end of hip-hop Industry and as the credits ran you saw the last act which was essentially the end of the beginning of the hip-hop industry. Pretty fuckin deep. Its almost like it was a coded message.
I think you’re looking too deep into things. No one could have predicted what was to come in the next two years that really shook hip hop up, so it’s easy to say what you said looking back and hindsight is 20/20.
This Tape or Cd, I had the Tape, was a true banger. Mix of East & West in a time when the world needed it. Summertime in the LBC was a hit, so was the computer love big jawn. Meth and wu had a couple songs on it too.. only 1 of my friends outta 9 had the cd. Every rap fan should have/hear this. It thumped too
I think Jay Z watched it, that's why he's too of the food chain. Warren G said it best, "if you come into the game as friends, it's gonna break you". The rap game is a jungle, you just have to find a way to survive, good or bad.
Damn, i was in 5th grade when this came out. First time seeing it in over 2 decades (39 yrs old). Apart from biggie & tupac, i never knew just how violent hip hop artist were back then. In those days, as a junior high school kid, we didnt have internet, social media none of that. All we had was the radio, the source magazine, video music box, rap city, and of course: the music. Otherwise we'd see ALL the beef these emcess had amongst each other. All we knew was biggie and tupac's beef. The violence never ended. Every month i'm hearing a new and upcoming emcee was gunned down. Nothing except the music changed. Hip hop became a multi million dollar business. Hip hop became: TRAP music. Not only did the music change, the violence remained. Sad.
Damn this shit gave me goose bumps, I had this vhs 📼 tape I must’ve watched it 100x gettin blunted in my grandma’s basement just zoning to it, literally the best era 80s and 90s hand down!💪🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Whole documentary on hip hop in the 90s and no mention of Tupac. I'm assuming they filmed this while he was in jail, but that makes no sense because they went and saw Slick Rick.... hmmm
+ceppy 2pac was allready gone RIP and yeah is a def jam doc.. lol i think this why they just put what they wanna.. 1995 defjam was still of you know.. for the rest yeah i apogialize the missing of a lot of artist but told you what you gona expect if was from defjam in 95 amin..
ceppy he was in jail at the time but he was on the soundtrack. Niggaz don't know what they be talking about Biggie wasn't singed 2 Def jam neither but he was featured on it. I saw this at the movies back in 95'..
Hip Hop going strong for 50 years!, and still bumping $hit & bobbing heads to the Beat. Greats like Run DMC, Eric B. & Rakim, EPMD, Gang Starr, Tupac, Biggie, NWA, Too Short, ect....😎
.. prior to the social media era, when you appreciated the sight of your favorite artists daily trials projected along the television screen, life wasn't at the press of a button, life actually meant something, free ya mind my folks ✌
East coast rap is so pure they can rap about anything and the west coast was so gangsta they new exactly how to bring there struggle from the hood on the mic but both sides contributed to the culture and also the midwest and the south with a different flair and style to how they flowed with the midwest with a combo of gangsta and conscious rap and the dirty south with having a flashy lifestyle to there rap!!!

Remember renting this from blockbuster in 96. Get chills watching it now just thinking back to how dope the culture was.

When Big said "If I wasn't a big nigga I'd be jumping in the crowd too" that was so cute RIP BIGGIE 👑
If I had a working VCR I'd be watching this a million more times than I did when I first saw this
Def think every rapper, established or up & coming, should watch this.
Last time I saw this, I was in high school, and big and pac was still alive. What Russell was sayin around Slick Rick was 💯
I'd advise all the youngsters to watch this whether they rap or not. Know there was a whole world before you and learn from it. Things were a lot more interesting back then in the 90's. Watch Rhyme & Reason too. I couldn't IMAGINE who would be in it if they tried to make this today.
I just found a group that I love they are called coast kontra
Every hip hop artist/fan should check this out. I remember seeing this in the theater.
I had it on vhs .
The nostalgia so real 💯 it seem so obvious but gawtdamn it's just so nice to see the crowds just bein consumed by the experience. Hands in the air not cell phones! These were THE times!! Take me back take me bacccckkkk.
one of the greatest hip hop docs i can think of
I remember buying the soundtrack to this movie on cassette tap.
Every song was great except for the biggie song
Rick had me rolling at 20:40 "niggas carrying bazookas" 😂 "can't front in front of mom dukes" that's real talk tho.
I was 17 years old when 1st heard Rock Box. Falling into hip-hop changed my entire musical sensibility
Rest In Peace Craig Mack
I saw this my 2nd year of college and to be 20 yrs old and to have witnessed these legends in their youth was amazing!
Damn that part about Wu tang in Japan made me happy
Same Hi ghostface
That part was funny when they told meth to Stfu 🤬 lol
This documentary changed my life when I was around 10/11 years old, 100% one of the best hip hop documentaries from the 90's! Having said that, The Stanley Clarke music at the beginning and throughout the film is absolutely beautiful, anybody know where I can find that masterpiece of a track? ❤🙏🔥
One of the historical eras that Should repeat itself.....Word to Mother Son.
If only we could have this without the bangin
Unfortunately hiphop is out of gas, i mean is in the main stream for 30 plus year so is naturally fading away.

This is really before the Bad Boy - Death Row beef blew up, Jay Z still hadn't dropped his first album... the landscape changed a lot very quickly after this.

Common song I use to love her. That is how I feel now.
Facts
I copped this soundtrack back in 96, I'm sure 2Pac 'My Block' was on this...
First time watching this in it's entirety after so long...
I am super blessed to be able to live and witness this era in Hip Hop. 87-98
I used to listen to the soundtrack all the time but I’ve never actually seen the movie. I was in high school when it came out. It’s actually kind of cool that I’m just seeing it now.
rest well Mack🙏
Raekwon's Green Philadelphia Eagles Hat was the shit, he was wearing the Old Buddy Ryan Jawn

Even when Treach wasn’t trying, he still spit better than most! Peace!
Crazy slick rick and russ in the v.i. when i was 16 watching this in 95 i didn't realize how important this scene was
The Classic Documentary Film 📽️🎥 about The Show on 1995 The Show on the Hip-Hop Culture, Music plus more everyone. For real. Yes.
Biggie predicted his fall 😔
This level of rap is still 1000 years ahead! Vocal tone- mcs have forgotten how your tone was everything- ie Cowboy
I miss this era in rap. 🙏🏾💯

Slick Rick was the 80s version of Snoop
Dang kids will never know how that time was, omg an that st Ides mix tap that also came out that year but this soundtrack went so hard 💯✊🏽
I feel like everybody who wants to be a rapper should watch this first and learn.
I think Jay Z watched it, that's why he's too of the food chain.
Warren G said it best, "if you come into the game as friends, it's gonna break you".
The rap game is a jungle, you just have to find a way to survive, good or bad.
8:44 How dope would it be to be on stage with Big while he's ripping the crowd. Puff lucky to have these memories with this legend.
Puffy all in the videos ...
Would’ve had more memories if he didn’t kill him

In those days, as a junior high school kid, we didnt have internet, social media none of that. All we had was the radio, the source magazine, video music box, rap city, and of course: the music. Otherwise we'd see ALL the beef these emcess had amongst each other. All we knew was biggie and tupac's beef. The violence never ended.

Not only did the music change, the violence remained. Sad.
Damn this shit gave me goose bumps, I had this vhs 📼 tape I must’ve watched it 100x gettin blunted in my grandma’s basement just zoning to it, literally the best era 80s and 90s hand down!💪🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

There's 1000's of documentaries about Pac dude, it's just this one was about DefJam's acts/affiliates. 2Pac was affiliated with Treach but not DefJam.
ceppy he was in jail at the time but he was on the soundtrack. Niggaz don't know what they be talking about Biggie wasn't singed 2 Def jam neither but he was featured on it. I saw this at the movies back in 95'..
glsmokerUS - COOL HIP HOP CHANNEL bro Pac wasn't dead at this time in hip hop he was on the soundtrack he was locked up
They need 2 but Rhyme and Reason on here also it came out lil early in 97' that has everyone on it like Pac & Big Heavy-D Wu-Tang, Ice-T etc
great upload of classic hip hop.
I'll take the 80s 90s and 2000 era over the last 20 years an the next 50 years in hip Hop any day of the week
I watched this til the vhs tape popped.
One of the best soundtracks ever!!
this soundtrack had one 2pac song, the og version of 'my block' it was the first 2pac song i'd ever heard and he's my favorite musician ever since
