Beyond Beats and Rhymes

I think that Beyond Beats and Rhymes is important for youth to see. The people who didn't grow up or live in the ghetto should watch this film. So they can experience whats hip-hop all about. The music videos that I watch on T.V relates to this documentary. Celebrities make music videos to: make money, to show that their tough, and to show off. Basically they make money and get fame and glory for making a music video. "hip-hop is trapped in a box" This line means hip-hop is going to repeat it self again. People are still going to make new songs and music videos. I understand hip-hop is music, I have to say I listen to it, but it doesn't have to be about money, girls, and power. It can be about love or anything, to me its kind of overrated. I think its successful because he spend a lot of time making this documentary. He ask rappers to get involved, people who help celebrities to make their music videos, and etc. He breaks down hip-hop to separate parts and explain each part about. He wants to show you what is behind hip-hop what are they hiding.
