    This woman is spiritually grounded. Her lack of anger and humble outlook is why these blessing keep happening.

    Netflix is killing the game when it comes to original movies. 'Roxanne, Roxanne' truly highlighted various underlining messages that need to be discussed from teenagers taking on adult responsibilities to older men preying on young girls. Phenomenal film and kudos to Netflix and Roxanne for this amazing film!

    I met Roxanne Shante and MC Shan at a concert at the Hyatt in Oakland Ca 1984, I was 9 years old. She was so dope, she made THE REAL ROXANNE from UTFO cry on stage it was crazy. She has an Iconic voice and dope rap style, she paved the way for female rappers. She still looks good, I am happy she is finally getting recognized with a movie that will last till the test of time.

    I saw Roxanne Roxanne yesterday, I was pissed when it was over! I definitely wanted to know more about her growing as a young adult with a child, when she started school [college], why she decided to get her degree. I'm so intrigued by her story!

      Nicky Krystals OMG I had no idea she lied! I remember years ago she did say she received her doctorate and she did acknowledge it. That's very disappointing because I really thought she received her doctorate. I wonder if I can find it online when she did say she's a doctor. 🤔

    • @pk7ghalm23
      @pk7ghalm23 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Tee Cee Natural me too. I was like really proud of her. Was like that's dope af. Hold up lemme find this interview where she's actually giving medical advice lmmfaoooooo she's pathological.

    Just finished watching the movie. The lead portraying her had her mannerisms and characteristics down to a T. Especially with Boo-Boo from _The Get Down_ as young Nas. That was just pivotal. Shante _definitely_ brought the female hip-hop scene all the way up in her time! Salute!!

    Props to Shante'. She's a very intelligent sister. I'm so glad she has a level head and came on and dropped so many jewels about ego and maturity. I'm glad she put the movie out because I was getting mishandled by my mother and men the exact same way. The movie was theraputic for me. Much love and success to you Sis.

      It's weird to me that white people shouldn't listen to black music. I grew up listening to what we now refer to as old school hip hop and rare groove and probably know more about it than the people making these comments. To me it is part of my culture, like it or not. Although there are racists in England, even they are not dumb enough to suggest that we shouldn't listen to each others music.

    This movie came out of nowhere and did the most for me. I was not talking to my son for almost a month before this day. I had lunch with a friend and he told me that life was too short to be petty with my family. All I wanted was a date with my son and through a meeting with my friend who encouraged me to rectify my relationships that were broken to keep them sustained, I was able to practice forgiveness, patience and love. My birthday is next week and all I care about is spending time with my son.

      Given the budget, I think they did a great job. I lived during this era and a lot of what I saw in the movie had me reminiscing about the past. We lived for those rap battles. If they really wanted to make it powerful they could of gave us more of her battling.

    I still can't believe they made a movie about her. That shit hit me like a ton of bricks. I didn't expect it. Can't wait to watch it when i get home. I love Roxanne Shante. I remember her squeeky voice blasting outta cars in Brooklyn. As a music producer now, Watcging that movie with the kids is very important to me tonight. I even heard a young Nas is in it. My oldest son who worships Nas is gon flip. They don't even know its out. I'm not even gonna tell em anything. I'ma make em just watch it. They don't know who Roxanne Shante is, But they gon find out tonight.

    Yo, please don't get me wrong. I love the movie but I'm one of the ones who thinks the movie should've been longer. The touring, The Krs-One beef, more Cold Chillin, and I feel like more of that added would have made this movie even more dope. Been a fan when I first heard her music (and other albums) going through my brother's records and tapes in like 89-1990 when I was 7 years old. After those moments I been a fan of Hip Hop ever since lol. This interview is dope.

    • @djShuttlenyc
      @djShuttlenyc 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I felt the same way also however I think they really wanted to focus more on her personal side and less on the music. They probably had some budget limitations as well.
