Best Hip Hop Documentaries

Postby stillmatic » Dec 8th, '10, 01:39

Just finished watching '2 Turntables And A Microphone: The Life And Death Of Jam Master Jay' and loved it, and got me thinking about other great Hip Hop Docs.

I think 'Tupac Resurrection' is probably easily considered the best of all time considering it was nominated for an Oscar as well as the great reception it got.

Any other good ones?

I love watching documentaries! The Carter Documentary was excellent, IMO. :y:

I've only seen certain parts of Tupac Ressurection.

not be too predictable but i think 2pac Resurrection is as good as it gets, hearing it straight from the man himself
ahead of my time, in my prime, one of a kind, out of my mind
