Episode one was solid. But the rest is just not good. I expected more. Very uneven. It feels like a mishmash of YouTube clips. Meandering narrative threads. Wack interviews. Little off topic stories jarringly shoehorned in at weird edit points. Needed more artist interviews, or less artist interviews. And more relevant artists. Lots of cringe. More academics or less. But not this. I can't make a documentary so don't listen to me. Watch it for yourself. You may enjoy it. I found it severely lacking based on the Chuck D co-sign. IMDb is telling me the review is too short? So they just want me to say more than is needed? That's the problem with the documentary I'm reviewing. You really don't want me saying more than necessary.
Mediocrity abounds. The doc. IMDb. Me. Everywhere. SMH.
