I remember going to a few of these events and the vibe was everything they covered and more! The stories and experiences they shared are unique to the culture of a free-sprits and unification through hip-hop! A great documentary!

    I was away for school while much of this was going on in LA, but I did attend Live at the BBQ (which was epic). This covers such a special time in underground hip hop. Watching it got me all up in my feelings. Haha. If I was living in LA at the time, I'm sure I wouldve been at these events. So dope to see all the footage of what I missed. If you're a hip hop head, this is a must-watch! Don't sleep!
