Best Hip-Hop Movie of All-Time?

I am in a wishy washy mood today. I don't know if I want cereal for breakfast or pizza. That same indecision is the reason for the question mark at the end of the title. You see I can't decide between Hustle and Flow and Krush Groove as the greatest hip-hop movie of all time. Right now I am leaning towards Hustle because the plot unfolded as smooth as 1200 thread count cotton sheets. You can see that Craig Brewer really appreciated hip-hop and its history. The music and the acting combined to give viewers a dramatic glimpse into an American story. But don't forget the krush groovin' body moovin'. To be able to see LL and Run DMC on the big screen. Krush Groove was the first time I saw LL and I remember some kids saying, "there he go". I didn't know who the hell LL was but then he turned on his radio and hit like 4 bars in an oh so vicious manner. I was hooked on hip-hop after that and I am pretty sure Krush Groove influenced millions of others. So today I am flipping a coin and calling it for Hustle but hey you never know, I may change my mind and eat that pizza.

It's a Recession Dummies

I haven't bought music in like four months. Money isn't the reason or maybe it is. You see, in a recession everyone's discretionary spending decreases. Factors like inflation and gas prices can contribute to you having less money to buy things like movies, music, and gifts. Now with that in mind like most people I can afford a 12 dollar CD or 10 bucks for some I-Tunes but is there really anything out there worth buying? If you're not a screaming air headed fan is the music being produced lately worth your hard dollars? Also, like most people I want to relate to what I am hearing through my speakers or earphones. Can we really relate to Plies "I got plenty money"? The black community has a staggering 13 percent unemployment rate but we're still hearing songs about rims and and rubber bands. I think rap is the only genre that lives in a vacuum when it comes to reality. I don't think you'll hear Linda Ronstadt singing about her mansion during a recession. So how about some song about getting a job or paying rent? It's only a matter of time before the fans look for music that relates and then guess what Plies will be doing? Looking for a job.
