Video: Ice T Documentary The Art Of Rap [Full 80-Min Doc]

Lord Jamar in a still from Ice T's Art of Rap documentary

The critically-acclaimed Ice T documentary / rap-umentary Something From Nothing: The Art Of Rap aired on Vh-1 last night and as is the way of the world, it’s now viewable online in its entirety. From the opening clarion call of David McCallum/Axelrod‘s “The Edge” and a young Lord Jamar‘s memory of taking his MC baby-steps over the “Do-It-Yourself” b-side version of Kurtis Blow‘s “The Breaks”–you know this shit is gonna be a good watch and a true lesson in the art of rap. So waste no further time, stop pretending like you are gonna get any work done on a Friday afternoon, ignore the pop-up ad and (munch, munch) press play on this Ice T documentary,The Art of Rap. Pass the popcorn.

US Only Or at least not available to us in the UK. I suppose we could run a proxy or something to see it.

The South not represented AT ALL! I know IceT gave some sort of excuse as to why it got edited this way but seriously? The dvd has an additional 2hrs of material…hopefully there will be something there to see that would justify buying it.
