    Shit sucked.puff daddy documentary

  12. ilexx says:

    I’m half way through the series and so far I’m loving it. I read a comment saying they didn’t mention pac once… If that really is sooo, that actually is extremely disappointing but so far its pretty good and a story that needs to be told.

    There are a lot of things about Hip Hop culture and black people in mainstream america that get touched on in this and I think people need to know this shit..
