Notorious

Before I watched this movie about some "gangsta" rapper who got killed, I had very very very very very little respect for the rap/urban/"hip-hop" culture in America.  After seeing it, the seemingly impossible happened: I have even less respect for it. When someone's world is so small, so very very insignificant that their life is consumed worrying about "East coast versus West coast" rappers, then they really should just off themselves. Of course, they never do. Too much gangsta pride for that. However, they do a great job offing each other. Was the East-coast-West-coast "War" nature's way of throwing out the stubby dull pencils? I have to give that proposition a great big "Hrmmmm.... that just may be."

1/10

NOTE: this movie should not be confused with the well-made 1946 Alfred Hitchcock film, "Notorious", which was actually a movie worth watching.

Now the song "Notorious" is stuck in my head.
