CGiii Comment

Catchy title!!!

Get rid of that hideous introductory voice-over!

As a film...it's a point-and-shoot exercise that displays no film-making talent whatsoever!

Surely, this should have focused on the music...let the music speak for itself...rather than the rambling speeches that the 'filmmakers' [unwisely] preferred!

The(ir) Blurb...

A documentary about an emerging scene which is on the verge of becoming mainstream - the queer hop scene. In addition to documenting the scene, we also wanted to challenge the assumption that the 'queer hip hop' movement is progressing solely because the US is more open to homosexuality compared to say 10 years ago. The ethnographic/interview approach uncovered a plethora of other variables that can be attributed to the increased visibility and success of gay hip-hop artists and the broader movement.
