This can be debated if this film should be in the list. It does not go into depth about music, art, dance, etc. Its more of a drama gangster hood flick were rappers show their acting skill and is directed by a known Hip hop music video director "Hype Williams"and a great music during the film as well as the soundtrack. Without a doubt its a classic film in will be in most Top 10 Hip Hop movies list.
