Common Talks First Verse and Influences In Outtakes from Something from Nothing: The Art of Rap

Ice-T takes us on an intimate journey into the heart and soul of hip-hop with the legends of rap  music. This performance documentary goes beyond the stardom and the bling to explore what goes on inside the minds, and erupts from the  lips, of the grandmasters of rap. Recognized as the godfather of Gangsta rap, Ice-T is granted unparalleled access to the personal lives of the masters of this artform that he credits for saving his life.  Interspersed with the performers’ insightful, touching, and often funny revelations are classic raps, freestyle rhymes, and never before heard a cappellas straight from the mouths of the creators.  What emerges is a better   understanding of, and a  tribute to, an original American art form that brought poetry to a new  generation.
