I expected more (spoilers)

posted 10 years ago by windquake

When I saw this was available, I was really pumped. Being more of an "old school" guy and a fan of 80s and early 90s rap, I really wanted to learn some more and hear from the legends.

I thought there was far too much time with people (not rappers) just walking around living everyday life.

Also, almost every MC did some sort of freestyle that really wasn't necessary. I mean, they are being interviewed about their life, influences, and such. They are already legends, no need to re-prove it.

The interview segments were short and didn't really get to the depth I was hoping.

In the end, if you removed the freestylings and the city scenes, they could have spent twice as much time with each MC.

I expected more Ice!

I hate IMDB's Signature policy...
