I rarely post actual documentaries or films here but this is definitely worth the watch. Whether you are into hip hop or not, this documentary has many stories, levels, morals and structures that kept me interested. Following the emotional stories of the individuals as well as keeping fresh scenes and music flowing toward the viewer really made this an enjoyable watch...inspirational stuff.
Plot:
The Hip Hop Project is the dynamic and inspirational story of a group of New York City teenagers who transform their life stories into powerful works of art, using hip hop as a vehicle for self-development and personal discovery. The film traces the evolution of this award-winning outreach program developed by Kazi, a formerly homeless teenager turned youth mentor. After four years of collaboration, the group produced a powerful and thought-provoking album that provides a revealing look at their lives. In contrast to all the negative attention focused on hip hop and rap music, this is a story of hope, healing and the realization of dreams.
