In Cuban Hip Hop All Stars, director Joshua Bee Alafia, in 2000 and 2001, captures the quick rise of Cuban hip hop during its infancy.

If either of you go, tell me how this film is, cause I heard about this a couple of months back and it's looks like it might be a really good documentary.

Sounds dope man. I love documentaries, especially ones on hip hop.
