Filmmaker Nina Blackburn is doing this documentary as a thesis for her doctorate in sociology. She chooses the rap group N. W. H. ("Niggaz With Hats") for her subject.
Sure, this is Spinal Tap... for rap. It may not be completely original, but it is opening a different avenue for satire. It has some low key fun and a few big laughs. The three characters do need to be dumber and it would help for them to be played by better comedians. Larry B. Scott is probably the best and I wouldn't mind keeping him. I remember him from Revenge of the Nerds. This is a good concept with mostly fine indie execution.
