Maybe the documentary was good but I thought it was garbage and just hit the 120X FF. The music videos of various rapper with some ranging into hip hop wrap and actually pretty well done videos that makes this music DVD a real jewel.

"Zino been killing the mixtapes lately. If you don't have his last two mixtapes "The Black Mixtap" or "One Foot In One Foot Out" you need to get both quick. This DVD got Over 20 video's, behind the scene's footage and exclusive Interviews. Should be fire. I'm also getting The Arch Nemesis LP too, first single is called Bottles & Up and that song is hot."

Great Bio and Interview with Benzino
Hydrofoil80 | Virginia | 08/14/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)
"This DVD is certainly worth the price for any hip hop fan or intellectual concerned with society. In this DVD Benzino explains his background and roots from Boston. And describes what he calls the "power triangle" or "3 P's" of press, politics, and police. Ray "Benzino" Scott is an interesting individual and one of the pioneers of hardcore rap. This also discusses his partner at the SOURCE magazine Dave Mays. This DVD outlines his career in an interview format and features around 20 videos from his music career. A great summary of forefather of hip hop and a timeless experience. Recommended."
