2. I really liked that movie a lot.....
But I just couldn't get this straight....

Why do all these great minds have to be so self destructive....

It's like there is a play book somewhere that says you can't have talent unless you are a troubled soul......

3. The best artists are the tortured souls
They keep it real, they express the pain that most people do their best to hide.

About the movie, I really enjoy the Latin music and the scenes where Bratt is reciting poetry. Pinero is said to be one of the forefathers of modern rap music and Bratt did a good job with the role.

4. Rap goes back a lot further than that......
Beat poets, Alan Ginsberg and even before that there was a lot of rap skat in big band jazz......
