[@annettejenkins1397]

I watched this again, lived through it. A lot of Rappers and Sports figures called him a " Sell Out" back in the day. But in reality he paved the way for All of them. They are reaping the rewards from what he did. Everyone from Ice Cube to ASAP Rocky! He was a " Liason" a bridge. But they " Clowned" him. If it was not for him alot of people wouldn't have crossed over and gotten recognition. He is a Living Legend!😘. The things he was " Clowned" for. Rappers are doing it everyday now. Look at Snoop. On a show and making commercials with Martha Stewart. A Woman wouldn't even do this But Yet, they Clowned MC Hammer😒😒😒. He had a cartoon, commercial, and clothing line. He is a Living Legend!

[@azimaben5236]

The movie was inspirational! I am grateful the world now know Honorable MC Hammers story. I had joy and tears in my heart and eyes. He touched many souls, but glad he put rapping behind to return to the ministry where needed. I'm a large fan of Mr. Hammer. So much dancing energy, creative skills which were so positive and clean. May God continue to bless him and family and keep them safe. He never forgot his people to which he shared his wealth with. He will always be remembered in life. What a fantastic human being with love for humanity and his family. Thank you for this production. Peace and Love!

[@telam1744]

Yep...What you said!

[@sharonjackson268]

Hammer had a conscience . He knew the power of God.

[@theodoremartin9333]

ON Ice T's album OG-original ganagsta which had the track New Jack Hustler and the movie New Jack city had just come out too. Ice T was at the top of his game. On that Album I referenced at the end Ice T is giving shots out he specifically gave big props to MC Hammer for taking rap to the highest level. I always remember that when groups like 3rd Base started dissing Hammer.

To me they were quite similar in personality i can see how they could have been close being both community minded and came from very humble beginnings coming out of the Oakland area where Tupac significant time there and Rapped Oakland hard, I'm pretty sure they knew the same ppl. He was a little older than Pac by a few years and probably saw a young version of himself in Pac.(like this is not who you are going back to your roots type shit) I could only imagine how deep their conversations went. Wish I was a fly on the wall to witnessed those good builds.

"PRAY" is right up there with any hip hop classic!! Who could sample Prince's classic song, "When Doves Cry?!" And make it sound like Fire🔥, with a religious message?! 🙏 Who else, but MC Hammer!!🔨 Prince NEVER licensed his music to anyone when he was alive!! But he let MC Hammer sample this classic 25X Platinum selling song, from the "Purple Rain" soundtrack !!💜 Rest In Peace, Prince!! 🙏 🤲 It Still bumps on my playlist in 2022!! MC Hammer absolutely "Killed" that sample!! Very underrated! But its still definitely DOPE!!

This is a really good biopic on MC Hammer Romany Malco did a great job portraying him, from him being a preacher to him being a big time rapper This movie really gives us a glimpse into the ups and downs of the rappers life I have to admit, the scene where he is rapping in his church was pretty cool, how come gospel can't be more like that these days All the dancing in this movie were amazing Once again this is a pretty amazing movie, thanks for uploading this

I don’t understand how Hammer went broke. “Can’t Touch This” literally took over the world.

[@michaelnewton1332]

Buying a $10 million house in a state with high property taxes, buying thousands of pairs of shoes and suits and over a dozen luxury cars. I think if he had been modest with his personal purchases, he would have been fine even with the large payroll.

[@caramelcapricorn06]

Taxes, that's how. The government gets a large portion of your paycheck, the more you make the more they take. If you don't have someone around you that knows about finances you're screwed

[@pjmoneybags2780]

The more you make the more they take doesn't necessarily apply to all when you see multi millionaires & billionaires only paying 8% tax and people making a lot less money pay over twice that much. The thing is you can't spend more than you are making and expect your wealth to grow. You need to pay attention to your finances, make good investments, spend wisely.🙂

In my opinion, Hammer’s music was right up there with Big Daddy Kane’s music. They both were DOPE. I never knew Hammer signed with Deathrow Records, which makes a lot of sense now as to the reason why his music started to change from good ol’ rap music to him rapping about “girls in pumps.” I also think that Hammer lacked a lot of knowledge when it came to the business side of the industry, which is why he went bankrupt so fast, as well as him wanting to live a lavish lifestyle. However, when it was all said and done, he realized where his place was- in the presence of the Lord, and not in the music industry.

Gotta love the pre-Gangsta Rap era. Even the 90’s Gangsta Rap era is one of the best musical periods in history, it was nice when rap was fun. Hammer, Will Smith, and Kid N Play were considered corny by the mid-late 90’s but they were some of the only rappers who were “keeping it real”. We know now that the so-called Gangsta rappers were lying about most of what they did. The real Gangsta Rappers mostly ended up dead or in jail. Hats off to the hip hop artists who didn’t try glorify the negative aspects of the hood just to make a buck.
