Without proof reading what I send out before sending it... I'm still not going to change it lol because you new what I was talking about... Lol! My bad again *knew but Thank you dough... There I go again I mean *though
Hammer got lucky as a young man...Some of us have to wait Some of us meet that one early in life You can't hurry love..No you juss have to wait..Love don't come easy.Its a game of give and take
Ahmad2423 only of black women like this still exist. Buetiful, humble, modest. Black women who are by his your side. Not talking shot about black men then kissing their ass wants you made it. Notice you said 35 years. A whole different era.
Hammer was (and still is) a true Hip-Hop legend in my book. He gave people from his hometown opportunities to perform and tour with him, gave his all and tried to give the world a great show when performing, and recorded great, POSITIVE music! 👍🙌💯
I watched this again, lived through it. A lot of Rappers and Sports figures called him a " Sell Out" back in the day. But in reality he paved the way for All of them. They are reaping the rewards from what he did. Everyone from Ice Cube to ASAP Rocky! He was a " Liason" a bridge. But they " Clowned" him. If it was not for him alot of people wouldn't have crossed over and gotten recognition. He is a Living Legend!😘. The things he was " Clowned" for. Rappers are doing it everyday now. Look at Snoop. On a show and making commercials with Martha Stewart. A Woman wouldn't even do this But Yet, they Clowned MC Hammer😒😒😒. He had a cartoon, commercial, and clothing line. He is a Living Legend!
The movie was inspirational! I am grateful the world now know Honorable MC Hammers story. I had joy and tears in my heart and eyes. He touched many souls, but glad he put rapping behind to return to the ministry where needed. I'm a large fan of Mr. Hammer. So much dancing energy, creative skills which were so positive and clean. May God continue to bless him and family and keep them safe. He never forgot his people to which he shared his wealth with. He will always be remembered in life. What a fantastic human being with love for humanity and his family. Thank you for this production. Peace and Love!
ON Ice T's album OG-original ganagsta which had the track New Jack Hustler and the movie New Jack city had just come out too. Ice T was at the top of his game. On that Album I referenced at the end Ice T is giving shots out he specifically gave big props to MC Hammer for taking rap to the highest level. I always remember that when groups like 3rd Base started dissing Hammer.
Hammer got rejected by the studio dude, got laughed out when he had the hammer pants on that was an idea put into action by his wife, got told he was tripping about being somebody by his brother. What God has for u, no one can stop it. Now won't he do it 🤗💪🙌
Hammer will always be a legend to me. He stood on what he believed in, and never wavered. He helped a lot of people, and he lost a lot. But through it all, he is still the man to me.
Anyone knows me - know I'm a TRUE, DIRE HARD MC HAMMER fan!! I always dreamed of being one of the MC Hammer dancers - and ALL of his music is on my playlist to this very day!!! I bump MC Hammer EVERYDAY!! Its part of my daily workout!! You gon' stay in shape if you dance to DA HAMMER everyday!! LOL!! Great movie........did not disappoint! BUT!! LET'S TALK ABOUT MRS. STEPHANIE BURRELL SHALL WE??? A Mississippi born real woman!! I'm so in love with her and how SHE SUPPORTED and stood by her man...........through it all - LOVE YOU STEPHANIE!!! Mississippi LOVES you!!!
Me and my cousins had that same dream , I was telling my son today when I was younger I wanted to dance with the group and I started crying and my son asked why are u crying momma? I miss when I was a child life was so much easier and we literally played outside all day and practicing dancing watching MC Hammer and Michael Jackson
Rhealistick JUST BECAUSE YOU WANNA SLEEP WITH SUM 1 DOESN'T MEAN THEY SHOULD BE IN ANY HALL OF FAME! IF THERE WASN'T ANY ARSENIO HALL YOU PROBABLY WOULD'NT KNOW OF ANY HAMMER ,HALL OF FAME IS A 20-30 YR. RUN OF KILLIN SHIT NOT A LIL 4.5-6 YR RUN NOT EVEN THAT HAM. DID ABOUT 3 YRS. KILLED IT & DRIED UP LOVE HIM BUT LIKE WHEN HE WAS BATTIN' UP HE MISSED A COUPLE😌
I smiled the entire time watching this movie. It brought back so many great memories of my childhood and watching Hammer on tv as a kid. Not too mention my brother may he Rest In Peace 🕊loved MC Hammer! The actors were phenomenal and I’m pleased 😊… Especially with the dancing aspect 💯
I used to laugh at the ignorance of some of my peers who took the piss and laughed at Hammer because he wasnt NWA or gangsta.....Too Legit wasnt just a record it was a fact, the guy was real as fook , Pac recognized it, respected it and defended it! Real recognizes real! No one should be surprised that Hammer & Pac were close during their time together at Death row. You might not like his music but you gotta respect the man for what he did tried to do and went on to do, nuff respect for Hammer!
To me they were quite similar in personality i can see how they could have been close being both community minded and came from very humble beginnings coming out of the Oakland area where Tupac significant time there and Rapped Oakland hard, I'm pretty sure they knew the same ppl. He was a little older than Pac by a few years and probably saw a young version of himself in Pac.(like this is not who you are going back to your roots type shit) I could only imagine how deep their conversations went. Wish I was a fly on the wall to witnessed those good builds.
His,"friends" took full advantage of his giving spirit. MC Hammer,was one of the most caring recording artist out there. He went broke for the people he loved unfortunately! #HammerHammerIAm
If you weren't blessed enough to see this man in concert...you missed a special moment, I promise! I was 12 when 2 Legit came out and I saw him while he was touring. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING SHOW!! I still say it's the best concert I've ever seen! Of course being a child at the time I hadn't a clue all this happened. I just knew he went bankrupt, not why. He was genuinely a good guy! He was just trying to feed his employees/half the community because he definitely hired everyone he knew! Thanks for the upload! I enjoyed this. 😉
I saw him concert, and he wore me out! His concert had so much energy. When the main act ( I believe it was Midnight Starr), half the people started leaving, because the only came to see M.C. Hammer. He was incredible!❤❤❤
I have so many good memories from my childhood, listening and dancing to Hammer. This movie was wonderful. A lot of things that i didn't know about him and his life. I can honestly say that the Lord Jesus touched my heart this morning, just through watching this movie. Thank you for sharing. It is greatly appreciated.
My favorite entertainer of all time!!! hammer was the 200% real. i love the fact that he did what rappers didn't do then and still haven't done now. employed the hood with no hesitation
LowDown803 ; Believe it or not that whole 2pac ain't dead stuff is a bunch of bull. MC Hammer witnessed him getting the plug pulled. Outside of all that Hammer had moves from James Brown mixed with Michael Jackson. I think he can even dance better than Usher when it comes down to the FOOTWORK GAME. Him and James Brown got that down pack
LowDown803 I agree! Hammer is a man who loves his people and did the best he could to help them. He loves and respects his wife and kids. He loves, lives, and speaks the word of GOD. Hammer is a REAL man.
Someone said in the comments they didn't know how this got on their timeline. Idk...but I think that we needed to see or get reminded again how its important it is to have financial literacy. Generating great wealth should be transferred through the generations not in one's lifetime. As black ppl Hammer's experience is a learning lesson to not make the same mistakes twice. God Bless.
Jessi B. ....what I notice about most of these pass celebrities..... They would spend heavy and do less investment.... Does not matter how much wealth you have if you don't invest for it to grow it will vanish like that.... The kadashians, j lo, and a lot of celebrities now are investing in other things to keep their wealth growing via different businesses
I didn't know MC Hammer had a biopic out...it was very insightful. I've forwarded it to some of my friends because it was a very good movie. I wish it was longer! MC Hammer had a very good heart and was truly unselfish. May God continue to bless him and his family.

"PRAY" is right up there with any hip hop classic!! Who could sample Prince's classic song, "When Doves Cry?!" And make it sound like Fire🔥, with a religious message?! 🙏 Who else, but MC Hammer!!🔨 Prince NEVER licensed his music to anyone when he was alive!! But he let MC Hammer sample this classic 25X Platinum selling song, from the "Purple Rain" soundtrack !!💜 Rest In Peace, Prince!! 🙏 🤲 It Still bumps on my playlist in 2022!! MC Hammer absolutely "Killed" that sample!! Very underrated! But its still definitely DOPE!!
Mc Hammer is a great man I met him once he's a down to earth talented man. Who helped PAC get ready for his wings. The actor who played him did a wonderful job.
Seen Hammer in concert, but didn't have the pleasure of meeting him. Maybe one day I hope. And you're right, Lamont Bently was very talented and did Pac justice on this movie. I remember him from the TV show Moesha. He died a few years after this movie came out. RIP Lamont and 2Pac.🙏🙏
Hammer you will always get respect from me ...You gave back to the hood with out hesitation... I got see you At Madison Square Garden when I 13 ...I was amazed at how many people were dancing on stage and how you danced from one end to another 👏🏽 you moved around so much they had a spot light on you lolz
I watched this flick with Hammer last year. I told him "thank you for doing your best to keep the People in your Heart", after watching this. He said "I don't know any other way to do it, I've got God in my Soul".
I met Hammer in person, like many people, and he was gracious humble and I had no idea the full circle he had been through. I love this brother so much more. Amazing life story Hammer. Your biggest fan since High School 1987
It's good not to always judge individuals off of what society thinks they should be. This is my first time watching his story and I am so proud of him and what he accomplished. God is good all the time! P.S., my mom passed in 2016 and she requested at her funeral, M.C. Hammer's Do Not Pass Me By to play. That was her favorite uplifting song. M.C. Hammer, you are appreciated!
This is The Greatest Movie I've Ever seen I had no idea he had a movie I cried watching it he's relationship with he's wife and friends Hammer You The Man Still 2018 Still the Man A Man Of Faith A Man Of The Most High Yah
Watching this movie brought back some good memories from my teen years! Who remember the Mc Hammer pants and the 357 shoes with the bow shoe strings if you didn't have a pair you was not apart of the Hammer wave! Lol😍😍
It seems like he was an outstanding person. he never left his family, wife and people he grew up with.. weather they had talents or not.. he supported them
Sometimes the lord will allow you to make it ,and when you feel like you on top of the world he will knock you down to humble you and let you know he’s your source for everything !!!!
Conviction of self is powerful. Having the courage to bring a vision to reality is one of the deepest spiritual journeys, that one can take. You gotta believe💯

This is a really good biopic on MC Hammer Romany Malco did a great job portraying him, from him being a preacher to him being a big time rapper This movie really gives us a glimpse into the ups and downs of the rappers life I have to admit, the scene where he is rapping in his church was pretty cool, how come gospel can't be more like that these days All the dancing in this movie were amazing Once again this is a pretty amazing movie, thanks for uploading this
@@wns0564 not sure how old you are. But yes you can. I love my black king like that for 15 yrs. Good women are still out there. We are raising a good woman. Keep hope.
yall must aint have cable or wasnt cool then...cause honey this movie use to come on so much in the late 90's & early 2000's ...😒 I got tired of watching it
Just “WOW” ...what a trendsetter MC HAMMER actually came from the Church, but then was the first to go into the ministries before Rev Run and Mase and Montell Jordan, plus I had no idea him and PAC were tight...
I was in the 5th grade when “Please, Hammer, Don’t Hurt ‘Em” album came out. He was huge! He was selling albums, had his doll, & his own cartoon. He was like James Brown of our generation. He was just amazing!
My Lil cousin won a dance contest or dance-off in Dallas and became part of his dance crew. She remarks how he and his wife looked out for her and her child. She was one of the explosive dancers who was nicknamed “POWER”! So much respect for what he has done and continue to do under Gods covering. May he be blessed beyond measure! Absolutely loved this biopic of him.
MC Hammer will always be one of my favs. I remember going to the To Legit concert. He helped so many and went bankrupt behind it. He was and still is an amazing person. Thanks for the upload. 🤗🤗
I really enjoyed this movie ... again!!! I hate when people try and make fun of him. He went wrong trying to employ his whole neighborhood and beyond. I think he’s a hero of sorts. Last I heard is that he was investing in tech companies in Silicon Valley. I wish him the absolute best along with his wife and their children.
Just watched 2/21/20. Was a huge Hammer fan back in the day. Hard to believe its been 30 years since I bought that epic cassette tape "Please Hammer Dont hurt em"
This is by far one of my favorite movies… I’m a huge Hammer fan. He was a stand up guy. More people need too see this and it’s sad that RUclips is the only platform you can watch this on. His story needs too be heard. Thankful I finally found this
Megan D .rite! this movie is so old but its New to me.. the little boy who played young mc hammer is grown, I remember him from parent hood he was cee cee friend.
SAW THIS FOR THE 1ST TIME ON WEDNEDAY AM ( 2 SOMETHING IN THE MORNING, January 12, 2022. . GREAT STORY. HE HAD A GOOD HEART AND A TRUE OAKLAND PIONEER THAT CARED FOR THE CITY OF OAKLAND AND HIS FOLKS ( FRIENDS), ETC.... MAKES ME " EXTRA" GLAD TO BE FROM OAKLAND, CA. I ALWAYS LOVED HIS MUSIC, TO SEE HIM " CUT A RUG', AND HIS VIBES. THANKS FOR THIS STORY, SINCERELY PATRICIA . CHOCOLATE SMILES!😎
In 92' my mom took me to the mc hammer jodeci concert here in Detroit and it was awesome I remember he hugged her and took off his chain and gave it to her the diamond shaped one. She gave it back to security though
What I really love out of this is through all the hard times him and his wife stood by their vows before God and their witnesses. this is awesome I like the movie what he needs to understand sometimes we just too nice and people will take you down including family and friends When is our goal so are they!
MC hammer came to my city and performed. He put on a good show. Man he was so humble. He engaged with the crowd, let us come up on stage and dance with him, and prayed for everyone. I would go to his show again if he had one! He don't get the regconizition he deserve!! (Hint BET)
This my man right here. I love his drive and how he just took people from the hood and transformed then. He such a business man. He was in a league all by himself.
1st time seeing this movie.As a kid he was so cute dancing with determination & making his dream in the music business becoming a reality was so amazing!!! He went through alot but in the end went back to the church& did his thing!!! I also loved Charlie the manager of the A's who was there for him from a little kid thru his adulthood & fame. Hammer was well respected did alot for others. A good Husband, Father, Son, brother, man & friend to those he loved & loved him. I'm so glad I saw this movie & really enjoyed it!!!!!! 😊😚😙😃😘😄😍😉😁❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏✌
im sitting here thinking this just came out until i saw thw credits with lamont bentley 😞 not sure how i let this movie slip past me all these years....
Thanks For Nothing i seriously don't know how i missed it unless i just completely forgot about it. we had cable.....i was still with my parents back then....graduated in 2002.....
Mc Hammer always put on an entertaining show got your money worth. I recall looking at Yo MTV Raps catching on doing the dances watching with my cousins to do at the school dances.
Everybody Ate When Hammer Was On Top But When He Started Starving, Nobody Threw Him A Bone... Just Sad!!!
Hammer Deserves All Of His Flowers For All He Has Contributed To The Culture... He Will Forever Be A Big Important Piece Of The Entertainment World... Keep Going Hammer!!! #BoughtLessonIsBoughtSense
That was fucked up but yet he’s still strong and never lost his faith
He is good now!! He is now rich because of his royalties and he has made good investments in the tech world

I'm glad he is still with his wife and she never left his side ever.
THAT'S DEFINITELY UNUSUAL, IN THIS SOCIETY THAT FOCUSES MORE ON DIVORCE THEN MARRIGE REPAIR.
Yes A Real Godly Woman Would Do That And He Met Her In Church AMEN 🙏😇🙏
She is godly woman so in the Bible Jesus or God doesn't want divorce. She was in it for the long hall through good or bad
Hammer got lucky as a young man...Some of us have to wait Some of us meet that one early in life
You can't hurry love..No you juss have to wait..Love don't come easy.Its a game of give and take
I agree with you 100% Percent!
What's even more special than his musical success. Him and his wife has been married for almost 35 yrs and have 5 children. Now that's what's up!
Ahmad2423 only of black women like this still exist. Buetiful, humble, modest. Black women who are by his your side. Not talking shot about black men then kissing their ass wants you made it. Notice you said 35 years. A whole different era.

ReDrUm9Midnite look at the life he gave her? Fuck who he was fucking. He was and still is a good husband.
Hammer was (and still is) a true Hip-Hop legend in my book. He gave people from his hometown opportunities to perform and tour with him, gave his all and tried to give the world a great show when performing, and recorded great, POSITIVE music! 👍🙌💯
An AMERICAN legend...not just for Hip Hop.

Yes he was & he still is a Hip-Hop legend where is Hammer now?

Yep...What you said!
Hammer had a conscience . He knew the power of God.
ON Ice T's album OG-original ganagsta which had the track New Jack Hustler and the movie New Jack city had just come out too. Ice T was at the top of his game. On that Album I referenced at the end Ice T is giving shots out he specifically gave big props to MC Hammer for taking rap to the highest level.

A God given trailblazer never get the respect the he or she deserves
I respect Hammer because he went back to the neighborhood and gave back to the community
I respect him for that too, but he gave back a little too much
King Gemini true but when you have a heart of gold it’s hard
+Marci Hill That is very true, but look at what happened though: Hammer was taken advantage of
King Gemini true..
Marci Hill
Ikr 😒 something you'll never do.
When you look at this in hindsight, you can see what Hammer did or done was something truly remarkable!

@@yardleyhbk and you're a flaming hater

maybe hammer has his priorities straight and urs are upside down 😅
I didn't know he had such a close friendship with 2pac. That was pretty cool to find out as well.
This man gave a ton of people jobs.....and he's still living well.
Back to the only Legit business - God's work, amen!
The well being of humans matters not to God. God's work is absolute justice. Amen
Hammers down fall was looking out for his friends. And them not having the same loyalty to him
Kimberley Kennedy it was my biggest downfall
Kimberley Kennedy Down Fall to the world but not by God Better to give then receive
plus he wasnt talented
Shane Clark i take it you not a fan the shade is real lol
im a big fan of talent.
Rip to the guy who played Tupac ,
He was a good actor and played tupac
very well .
💯💐
His name was Lamont Bentley
Yeah his name was Hakim and he played a role in Moesha with brandy and Ray J it was sad how he died I think he died on a motorcycle accident.
@@secreteobsession3584 yes his death was so sad
Ahmad Johnson from WWF playing Suge too
MC Hammer was a full blooded entertainer and he changed the world of dance...
He succeeded by returning to the church.. there’s nothing above Jesus and I’m happy that Hammer and his family love Jesus...✝️🙏❤️
Someone said in the comments they didn't know how this got on their timeline. Idk...but I think that we needed to see or get reminded again how its important it is to have financial literacy. Generating great wealth should be transferred through the generations not in one's lifetime. As black ppl Hammer's experience is a learning lesson to not make the same mistakes twice. God Bless.
Jessi B. Amen!!
Man! This!
Love it
Jessi B. ....what I notice about most of these pass celebrities..... They would spend heavy and do less investment.... Does not matter how much wealth you have if you don't invest for it to grow it will vanish like that....
The kadashians, j lo, and a lot of celebrities now are investing in other things to keep their wealth growing via different businesses
Financial literacy bingo
I went to a MC Hammer concert back in the day and it was the best, most energetic concert I've ever seen in my life!
I didn't know MC Hammer had a biopic out...it was very insightful. I've forwarded it to some of my friends because it was a very good movie. I wish it was longer! MC Hammer had a very good heart and was truly unselfish. May God continue to bless him and his family.

"PRAY" is right up there with any hip hop classic!!
Who could sample Prince's classic song, "When Doves Cry?!"
And make it sound like Fire🔥, with a religious message?! 🙏 Who else, but MC Hammer!!🔨
Prince NEVER licensed his music to anyone when he was alive!!
But he let MC Hammer sample this classic 25X Platinum selling song,
from the "Purple Rain" soundtrack !!💜
Rest In Peace, Prince!! 🙏 🤲
It Still bumps on my playlist in 2022!! MC Hammer absolutely "Killed" that sample!!
Very underrated!
But its still definitely DOPE!!
“Pumps and a Bump” was fire 🔥
Mc Hammer is a great man I met him once he's a down to earth talented man. Who helped PAC get ready for his wings. The actor who played him did a wonderful job.
Seen Hammer in concert, but didn't have the pleasure of meeting him. Maybe one day I hope. And you're right, Lamont Bently was very talented and did Pac justice on this movie. I remember him from the TV show Moesha. He died a few years after this movie came out. RIP Lamont and 2Pac.🙏🙏
@@pansysgarden nah pac was a workaholic he was garbage as pac sorry not sorry
Hammer you will always get respect from me ...You gave back to the hood with out hesitation...
I got see you At Madison Square Garden when I 13 ...I was amazed at how many people were dancing on stage and how you danced from one end to another 👏🏽 you moved around so much they had a spot light on you lolz
Who remembers me MC Hammer cartoon with the talking shoes
meeeeee!!!!!
Me!
I love Hammer,but,that cartoon...was not...good...😕
Stanley
Need all of them cartoon on DVD
I watched this flick with Hammer last year. I told him "thank you for doing your best to keep the People in your Heart", after watching this. He said "I don't know any other way to do it, I've got God in my Soul".
🧢
I met Hammer in person, like many people, and he was gracious humble and I had no idea the full circle he had been through. I love this brother so much more. Amazing life story Hammer.
Your biggest fan since High School 1987
man u cap 🧢
@@kingezekiel4931 Why would you say that, sir? Do your healing work, bruh.
@@KaptainKash100 You too.
It's good not to always judge individuals off of what society thinks they should be. This is my first time watching his story and I am so proud of him and what he accomplished. God is good all the time! P.S., my mom passed in 2016 and she requested at her funeral, M.C. Hammer's Do Not Pass Me By to play. That was her favorite uplifting song. M.C. Hammer, you are appreciated!
This is The Greatest Movie I've Ever seen I had no idea he had a movie I cried watching it he's relationship with he's wife and friends Hammer You The Man Still 2018 Still the Man A Man Of Faith A Man Of The Most High Yah
I'm glad this was recommended; I don't think I ever seen this.
Watching this movie brought back some good memories from my teen years! Who remember the Mc Hammer pants and the 357 shoes with the bow shoe strings if you didn't have a pair you was not apart of the Hammer wave! Lol😍😍
Silent Storm
Wow, sounds like a disaster.
Silent Storm good ole days child
...them hammer pants way back when,were called baggies!!
....remember the cartoon
@Plan D lmfaooooooooo yup
I did
Watched the whole thing and this was actually a great movie. I'm suprised I've never seen this before. Thank you for sharing.
It seems like he was an outstanding person. he never left his family, wife and people he grew up with.. weather they had talents or not.. he supported them
Sometimes the lord will allow you to make it ,and when you feel like you on top of the world he will knock you down to humble you and let you know he’s your source for everything !!!!

You're so correct
What a dick move that is.
I remember when MC Hammer came out.I was about 15years old at the time.He made great music in those days.🎶🎶🎶Lets Get it started.🎶🎶
Chauncey Q I was 12 years old in the 7th grade. Wow middle school days

Conviction of self is powerful.
Having the courage to bring a vision to reality is one of the deepest spiritual journeys, that one can take.
You gotta believe💯
I still have MC Hammer on my play list.....love this King

This is a really good biopic on MC Hammer
Romany Malco did a great job portraying him, from him being a preacher to him being a big time rapper
This movie really gives us a glimpse into the ups and downs of the rappers life
I have to admit, the scene where he is rapping in his church was pretty cool, how come gospel can't be more like that these days
All the dancing in this movie were amazing
Once again this is a pretty amazing movie, thanks for uploading this
💯
mc hammer wife loved him very much ,she never gave up on him..
Won’t find that in this day an age smh

@@wns0564 We are out here but most aren't looking our way.
I don't recall hearing anything about this movie. Hammer was very successful.
Jacqueline Pride 😒Me neither
yall must aint have cable or wasnt cool then...cause honey this movie use to come on so much in the late 90's & early 2000's ...😒 I got tired of watching it
Thanks For Nothing actually it was a huge premier on vh1 in 2001 and had the highest ratings for a biopic for its time
HAMMER GETS MAD RESPECT!💯👍🏻
Yasss!! Back in the day!!.. Ice T.. Recognised his talent, as well as pac. Thanks for the upload!! 👍🏾
Salute
I Liked his Music, but never really cared how he got to where he was, but this Movie Makes Me See Him in another Light!!! Good Movie
Just “WOW” ...what a trendsetter
MC HAMMER actually came from the Church, but then was the first to go into the ministries before Rev Run and Mase and Montell Jordan, plus I had no idea him and PAC were tight...
R.I.P 2pac & Lamont Bentley (the actor who played him)🙏🙏🙏
@Michael Lowery mannnn shut tf up Mann you a loser frfr bruh Ong
@Michael Lowery y’all be talking crazy under them RUclips comments 😐
I was in the 5th grade when “Please, Hammer, Don’t Hurt ‘Em” album came out. He was huge! He was selling albums, had his doll, & his own cartoon. He was like James Brown of our generation. He was just amazing!
I was in sixth grade
I remember that doll
I was in 5th grade. My mom bought me a stereo and I used to bump his Hammer don't hurt em tape all day. He was larger than life at that time.
I will always remember MC HAMMER'S Greatness and true dedication that he made toward the industry
My Lil cousin won a dance contest or dance-off in Dallas and became part of his dance crew. She remarks how he and his wife looked out for her and her child. She was one of the explosive dancers who was nicknamed “POWER”! So much respect for what he has done and continue to do under Gods covering. May he be blessed beyond measure! Absolutely loved this biopic of him.
Congrats to your cousin
Nothing better than an artist showing his love for the Lord
HE WAS A BOMB ASS TUPAC!!! 🙌🏽 great talent gone way too soon
That's so true 👍 .
Gone?? He ain't dead.
@@jmrqz6348 he talking about Lemont Bentley
MC Hammer will always be one of my favs. I remember going to the To Legit concert. He helped so many and went bankrupt behind it. He was and still is an amazing person. Thanks for the upload. 🤗🤗
Yes I remember going to that concert back in 92 all I have to say he put on a good show.
When I first saw this movie I did not know who the man playing MC Hammer was. Now that I do, this movie is pure gold.
I really enjoyed this movie ... again!!! I hate when people try and make fun of him. He went wrong trying to employ his whole neighborhood and beyond. I think he’s a hero of sorts. Last I heard is that he was investing in tech companies in Silicon Valley. I wish him the absolute best along with his wife and their children.
The girl playing his wife is gorgeous
I remember her from leprechaun in the hood

May 2024
This is by far one of my favorite movies… I’m a huge Hammer fan. He was a stand up guy. More people need too see this and it’s sad that RUclips is the only platform you can watch this on. His story needs too be heard. Thankful I finally found this
Very good movie. 👏🏾👏🏾Its a lot of things I didn’t know. I don’t even remember this coming out on VH1.
Megan D .rite! this movie is so old but its New to me.. the little boy who played young mc hammer is grown, I remember him from parent hood he was cee cee friend.
honey this movie so old...this was made in the late 90's early 2000's
It was when people started liking bull shows

Thanks for watching, take care
In 92' my mom took me to the mc hammer jodeci concert here in Detroit and it was awesome I remember he hugged her and took off his chain and gave it to her the diamond shaped one. She gave it back to security though
Mi's world. She’s lucky
That would of been nice to see i went to see the jets in concert Bobbalo Island years ago when we flew back east Detroit. The good ole days😊
@@cnicole1510 oooh you said the jets and boblo man i miss bobloooooo
Detroit stand up!
The fact that he and his wife are still together is AWESOME!! Look at God!!
Thank you for your alsome wife
I know! So beautiful and awesome 🥰🥰🥰
What I really love out of this is through all the hard times him and his wife stood by their vows before God and their witnesses.
this is awesome I like the movie
what he needs to understand sometimes we just too nice and people will take you down including family and friends
When is our goal so are they!
I was glued to this from start to finish! There’s a lot I did not know about this man. Great movie :-)
There is nobody like Hammer to ever grace us!! The truest talent
Congratulations to MC Hammer for leaving that horrible life behind, and staying with his spouse and child.❤
Amen!
OUTSTANDING EVERYTHING !!! actors, plot, dancing, theme, writing ...... everything !
MC hammer came to my city and performed. He put on a good show. Man he was so humble. He engaged with the crowd, let us come up on stage and dance with him, and prayed for everyone. I would go to his show again if he had one! He don't get the regconizition he deserve!! (Hint BET)
This my man right here. I love his drive and how he just took people from the hood and transformed then. He such a business man. He was in a league all by himself.
1st time seeing this movie.As a kid he was so cute dancing with determination & making his dream in the music business becoming a reality was so amazing!!! He went through alot but in the end went back to the church& did his thing!!! I also loved Charlie the manager of the A's who was there for him from a little kid thru his adulthood & fame. Hammer was well respected did alot for others. A good Husband, Father, Son, brother, man & friend to those he loved & loved him. I'm so glad I saw this movie & really enjoyed it!!!!!! 😊😚😙😃😘😄😍😉😁❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏✌
Love Hammer. He has a good heart.
Great daddy too
