    Anyone wanna record this or something and perhaps upload it somewhere?
    I've been wanting to see this again for a long time, but I have no channel 4 anymore.

    Cool, if you can get all 3 parts I'll yoink the video off you then and figure something out.

    I have it recorded somewhere from when it was originally aired, but I never labled videos so I'd have to go through a couple of hundred in order to find it.

    Anyone else watch this?, i thought the first part was the best, its seemed like it was lacking in most other areas, its seems to skip over alot of stuff...for example no mention of KRS, BDP etc and doesn't really talk about the flip side of Hip-Hop when all the Gangsta rap thing was getting all the attention.

    Also they don't explain the 2pac and Biggie beef enough, it just seemed they focused on NWA, Death Row and Ice T too much, dont get me wrong, its probably the best program about Hip-Hop i've ever seen on television but i just feel that it could have been alot better and more complete/authoritative or something.

    Only saw the first episode...was pretty good, I was surprised. They mentioned Apache, b-boys, Kool Herc, and even graffiti (for a split second), good stuff

    Yea, i was impressed with the first episode aswell, unfortunately it went downhill after that though.
