Lemme break it down fo ya...

Hip Hop = Love

When the 2 characters were first introduced to hip hop, they were first introduced to love. Being that they both had a love for hip hop, they had an unknown love for each other.

Real Hip Hop was represented by the relationship between Sidney and (Taye). This is why Mos Def was in the movie. He is one of a handful of known artists who are trying to bring back the real Hip Hop.

Bull**** Rap was represented by the relationship between Sidney and that Boris dude; and Taye and his wife. This explains the Hip Hop Dalmations.

The whole point of the movie was Taye was trying to bring back the feeling (love) that he got when he first heard hip hop(= the love of his life;= Sidney) a.k.a "The perfect rhyme over a tight beat"

Both characters were in relatonships that they weren't really feeling( Bull****;= Dalmations). Their true love lied within each other (Real Hip Hop;= Mos Def).

The whole movie correlates to the history of Hip Hop being that in the beginning it was inspiring, fresh, and new. Now it has progressed to a lot of Bull****! The real Hip Hop needs to be brought back and recognized worldwide once again. But that will never happen as long as the Hip Hop Dalmations keep getting record deals and constant exposure while the true MC's are driving cabs.

I never said I didn't understand what they were saying...I didn't feel the analogy that's all. I USED TO LOVE HER....I feel it and always have...but the movie just didn't break it down the way that it could have...that is all...Overall I give the movie a C+
