i first saw this movie when it come out in 1994 and just watch it recently and it be still funny . i do not know if you have to understand hiphop in the 90 and but it help if you do . in the 90 when nwa and public enemy be at the top and there be internal strife within the group and member when their separate way ( ice cube and easy e and etc ) . also there be the wan na b and accessible rapper that start make the scene ( vanilla ice and freedom williams from c and c music factory and etc ) . this movie make fun of all of that in a way that seem like it an actually documentary . kasi lemmon play an interviewer that spend a year in the life of a fictitious rap group name n. w. h. the member of the group be ice code ( rusty condieff or director ) and tasty taste ( larry b scott or revenge of the nerd and and tone def ( mark christopher lawrence ) . they be an up and come rap group whose politics make them controversial . whats good about this film be that it be so thourough in it portrayal of the hiphop industry of the 80 and they way it poke fun at it . but and if you know 80 /90 rap and you know how much of this stuff be true . still and on it own and without hip hop knowledge and it be still a funny funny movie . and for all of those who ask and yes spinal tap come first and but spinal tap be not the first spoof movie either . this and in my opinion be equally a funny and in some way and good than spinal tap . a spinal tap be to heavy metal and fear of a black planet be to rap . and the song be off the hook also . the dvd be chalk full of extra to include music video of nwh a a group and a solo artist . brilliant performance by rusty condieff and larry b scott .
