As a 45 year old Hip Hop purist it's hard for me to rate this documentary because to me, the noise that this generation is making has nothing to do wit Hip Hop, rap or music at all.
But leaving this aside it's almost heartbreaking to see where lack of education, negligence and pure stupidity can lead these young people.
If you were ever looking for THE personification of stupidity then here you have it, all compressed into 1:20h.
The main problem lies not within these "artists" this documentary is presenting. It lies with the tens of millions of consumers who made them what they have become. For nothing. It's mind bending. Must watch!

We examine the SoundCloud rap scene's biggest stars from within the culture as well placing them in the broader musical context in an attempt to understand how we arrived here and where we are headed.
