What I'm curious about is How was Robert allowed to shoot the camera? That's always been something that's strictly controlled by the Unions on a Union set! And Columbia IS a Major studio and signatory to ALL the Union contracts. Just because a movie is shot in Mexico that wouldn't negate the Union Contract for Cinematographers. Would someone please address this?

He can cut costs so much, why don't he get hired to make more movies?

Anyone 2024❤❤??? R.I.P to my childhood 😢😢

In the widely circulated article 'The Photographer Who Captured The Birth of Hip Hop' which appeared in 'The New Yorker' magazine, all of the photos snapped by puerto rican joe conzo featured FBA artists and FBA artists only. If latinos/puerto ricans were there from the beginning as they claim, why weren't and why aren't there any latinos/puerto ricans depicted in any of joe conzo's numerous photos?..

Why aren't puerto ricans producing puerto rican rappers NOW?

Black people we are staying separated do yLl Puerto ricans music from now own we do black from now on separated no more stealing our beats

American music forms: Spirituals, Blues, Ragtime, Jazz, Country, Gospel, Bluegrass, Folk, Rock n Roll, Doo-Wop, Soul, Funk, Disco, House and of course RAP AND HIP HOP all enjoy well documented African American roots coupled with undeniable African American influence---whether directly or indirectly. Latinos -- Puerto Ricans particularly -- please explain how you co-created or co-invented yet another installment in the legacy of Black Musical expression known as Rap and Hip Hop, yet didn't co-create or co-invent or contribute to any of the elements of the 14 or so African American music forms that existed before it? Or why you were nowhere to be found and absent during the creative and inventive foundation outlining the forms of African American musical expression, brilliance and greatness throughout, or even prior to the previous 14 or so African American music forms mentioned above and then all of a sudden--out of nowhere, you folks came along and co-created and co-invented Rap and Hip Hop 50/50 half n half (which is the utter nonsense being pushed by Dr. Derrick Colon, Fat Joe, The Radical Latino and numerous others)---it just doesn't add up---it makes no sense. Make it make sense Latinos.

And you move on 😎 1:20

I love how RR used the same bar in El Mariachi for Desperado.

This feature in once upon a time in Mexico.

He's no ordinary director, he's smart.

Anyone else perform a choreographed dance to this in Jesus camp? Lol

As a kid I would always pause movies and study the special effects or details in a shot or cut. Videos like this are treasure to me, thank you!

Been ten years since I’ve watched these. It actually makes me feel good bc rob rod thinks a lots similar to me in creativity. I thought i was disorganized but there’s a clear method bc how he did mariachi reminds me of my own films I’m working on.

Love this song 🎵 so much ❤🙏🏾💪🏾

Still a jam in 2023

"it doesn't look like a CG Eye"

I don’t agree with this

Why were there kids driving a car

This video is the realest you’ve seen so far ! THE BRONX IS THE HOME OF HIP HOP

Latinos only role in the hip hop game was biting off Black Americans while also hating on us. From the swag, the slang, to the sneaker culture. Rican’s and Latinos didn’t create one thing. Truth hurts

They were racist and hating on black americans for Hiphop but the style and culture was so infectious that they dropped their own culture to ride our wave.

Go to a black party cookout etc there will be no Latin music playing

So did Latinos help create jazz rnb gospel soul funk country rock blues also since when have we needed anyone to help us create anything this is so Pathetic Latinos don’t even like blacks what other music have y’all created ever one has a sick obsession with black people damn just leave us alone watch and learn we will continue to create with no outsiders help

They just called the beginning of the 80s the get go of hip hop...plz stop the bs... I was there and they learned it from us so stop lying. Charlie Chase started in 75 and and said PRs called hip hop jungle bunny music and hated on him for participating...

It's not a street thing. It's a black thing. Proximity to black people doesn't give you a right to claim a culture you did not create. When Charlie chase became a dj, there was no such thing as hip hop. What group of people was pushing thIs funk and soul street culture? It was FBA.

You all acting like Caucasians with Elvis Presley. CULTURE VULTURES!

Black Spades were before Zulu Na. Kris one and Crazy legs both admitted they were wrong about how hiphop started Those people came later. Not creators. Everyone latched on later. Carlos Santana said all music is Afrixian music and Blacks deserve there credit.

It’s a urban thing 🗽💎💯

taco eater want to be part of black music but hate black people

Just give black americans credit for creating a culture yall like n wanted to be a part of

Very Deceptive language trying to give the impression that Latino's were co-creators at the foundation of Hip Hop and that is not the case. They did not CREATE the Culture. Hip Hop Is: DJ'ing, MC'ing, B-Boy Dancing, Fashion, Graffiti and BLACK CONSCIOUSNESS AKA Knowledge of Self. This is ALL Documented.

No one is trying to remove Latino's from Hip Hop. That is impossible and stupid. For the record however BLACK FBA Americans CREATED Hip Hop and that will be the record FOREVER. We will not allow what happened with Rock & Roll to happen with Hip Hop.

It's true, we used to all be together and the labels started trying to segment Latinos off from Blacks in Hip Hop. For the record I think that this organized LIE that Black American FBA are not the CREATORS of Hip Hop is a part of it. People are trying to say that Black people are saying Latinos were not there and that is not the case.

2022 and im just finding this is a radio head sample

Nobody listening to this slave teaching no more. He needs to study and get his head out the clouds of his slavemaster. Them days are over.

Thanks for my 16th birthday gift. It sure was a blessing. Thursday, September 10, 2009

Love it! Still a bop in 2022. ❤️🎵👏🏾

We have no excuse now, not to make a cheap but Hollywood hit movie. God bless.

God is good all the time
