What Something from Nothing: The Art of Rap Is About
Ice-T's 2012 documentary explains how rap is made by asking rappers. He is behind the camera as director and interviewer, talking with names from his own generation and after it about how music born in the street took over the world. What separates it is that it discusses the craft rather than the industry or sales: building rhymes, flow, writing habits, whether or not you use paper. Almost every interview ends with the artist performing something on camera, and those passages are the film's spine. Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, Eminem and many from the genre's first generation speak. The commercial side and the genre's contested aspects are largely left out. Who it's for: hip hop listeners and anyone who likes music documentaries that talk about writing and technique. Who it's not for: viewers wanting a comprehensive, critical history of the form.
