Video: BET’s Chicago Rap Documentary – ‘Murder To Excellence’ [Full Doc]

The 3-part BET documentary takes an in-depth look a what goes behind Chicago’s culture and hip-hop scene. BET puts a spotlight on the history of dangerous activity (as many news outlets have deemed the city a warzone) and sits down with some Chicago artists to discuss growing up and making music in the dangerous city. Part 1 has L.E.P. Bogus Boys, Sasha Go Hard, and King L (among others) give their personal accounts of what’s going on in the windy city and try to clear up some of the misconceptions regarding hip-hop’s violent subject matter. Part 2 has community leaders looking at problems and suggesting solutions and Part 3 shows the city’s youth giving some hope for the future. Some have felt that the doc provides a narrow or one-sided (dare we say sensationalist?) view of Chicago and its music scene but for those of us on the outside looking in, things do seem pretty crisis-mode in Chi-town lately. Watch and judge for yourself below.

Short and didnt really go into details about the gang violence specfically. Lot of slow mo black and white shots of Chicago and sinister music but it was mostly positive dudes talking about what the kids and community need to do to make things better and dudes who chose to do music vs gangbanging.

The 3rd part was kind of interesting with the school of those aspiring rappers, singers and poets all under 19 and what not. I know this is stating the obvious but Chicago really genuinely has a long extension of black music talent and that school was no exception. Some very well aware and bright kids too.

Because Chicago has like 30x more street gangs than the avg city.

To clarify, not Lil' RooRoo's Crew from around the way, but officially recognized street gangs.
