I had to write this because it's so crazy. My name is Andre Beard, and I currently Graduated from Sonoma State University in spring 2020. It's so so surreal that he didn't even predict George Floyd nor the Corna Virus. But after having an English degree and still remaining broke it does truly hurt indeed. Heed his words, as they are gifts for inspiration, as he's not lying. You don't wanna be trapped, in debt, with nothing left to hang on but a nose of bad food. Be smart, be wise, and have a great rest of your life, to those of who watch later in time to come.
I loved hearing the history. In grade school break dancing was popular. Most of us was breaking white and black together. Glad for it cause we had unity. No stress just love for your fellow brother. God bless
KRS ONE is very inspirational. I recall the first time I heard the Edutainment CD. That made me very curious to learn. As a result I began to gravitate to he and other artist such as X-Clan, Poor Righteous Teachers, and Brand Nubian. I gained an insatiable appetite for HIP HOP and Self-Actualization. Like KRS ONE, I too was broke and homeless but HIP HOP empowered me to go on to earn four degrees (receipts) and become a lawyer. lol
Nobody seemed to answer so far... the three films mentioned are Wild Style, Beat Street, and Style Wars. Also - Do The Right Thing by the great honourable Spike Lee falls in the same bracket. Respect to the teacha. Peace, and much love.
I can relate to everything he says. My whole life, people have seen me, and assumed I'm a nerd, socially inhibited, and shy. Then, they test me. The people that at first glance underestimate, I trample and embarrass them. Then, I dare them to tell me I can't do something.
People underestimate me, and try to treat me like I have no idea. Those are the people that I just embarrass. Either don't help them, and let what their trying to do fall apart, or do it better than them so the client changes his or her mind and hires me instead.
You Must Learn and I know Because of KRS ONE. Sublime fans know what I mean. That's how shit goes. Sublime turned me on to KRS ONE and the rest is history.
Very interesting lecture. As an aside, shame on the person who wrote the video description for claiming that KRS-One kicks "utter nonsense" at some points in his speech, as I saw the entire lecture and didn't hear anything nonsensical, just passionate thoughts on various topics. If you're going to be disrespectful like that, at least have the courage to mention your name/username in the description, so people can pin an identity to your aforementioned claim, rather than using internet-provided anonymity to disrespect somebody; It seems low of university staff to do this.
blk folks just learned how to talk. Now we have to learn how to do something practical. Like instead of getting into entertainment, get a a trade. Forget entertainment.
He’s awesome but he’s delusional if he thinks cool Herc created hip hop people was rapping on music since the 60s Cool Herc made changes with Music but he wAsnt a rapper he was a DJ without the rappers the music would’ve been just cool sounding music. He knew cool Herc personally but Herc never said he created hip hop KTS Ima need you to stop this narrative! They all sampled James Brown if anything it’s him- He’s trying to say this Jamaican not African Americans created hip hop no he didn’t!!

@djsvideodiarys To tell you the truth; I don't know. I guess he's number 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Lol.
Yeah, the Tony Robbins of hip-hop (take that any way you like it).
Nope
He’s awesome but he’s delusional if he thinks cool Herc created hip hop people was rapping on music since the 60s Cool Herc made changes with Music but he wAsnt a rapper he was a DJ without the rappers the music would’ve been just cool sounding music.
