I told you to learn hiphop culture, not to become black

I got numb after watching this movie

One sentence summary: The plot setting is sloppy, the actors' acting skills are given for nothing, and the three views of the characters explode.

Without going into details about the actors' acting skills, it is probably equivalent to the level of domestic fresh meat whose appearance has decreased by 90%.

Let's talk about the three views of the characters in combination with the main plot

The protagonist likes to be afraid of the dark since he was a child. When he was in college, he met a rapper Shire who came to the school to perform. Ciel encouraged the protagonist to sing on stage. With the leader, the protagonist finally entered the circle of professional black fear. There is no problem here.

but! but!

What did the protagonist do after entering the circle?

List a few activities:

1. Drag racing

2. Graffiti everywhere

3. One-night stand Che Zhen (and therefore break up with long-term girlfriend)

Let's see how he makes a living:

1. Stealing a car with the gang

2. Shoplifting

In the end, where did the protagonist’s chance to successfully counterattack come from?

1. The object of the one-night stand is a professional musician in the United States (or the United Kingdom), and pays someone to make music for him

2. Saw a recruiting advertisement for a rap contest while stealing from a store

To be honest, I'm really full of question marks when I see this

That's it? ?

The rap culture that the whole movie promotes? ? That's it? ? ?

My favorite rapper Jiang Yunsheng has a sentence:

"I told you to learn hiphop culture, but I didn't tell you to become black"

The protagonist is not.

Because I'm poor, I can steal cars and go to the store to steal clothes, all for the sake of music

Also, can a musician's one-night stand be called a one-night stand? Like-minded people will definitely be attracted to each other.

...... I'm sorry, I'll spit it out first.

It is recommended that the director watch "The New Generation of Rap" at station B to learn what the spirit of black fear is

It's "Letter from the Academy" that exposes the Internet addiction abstinence school

It is the true reflection of "Rain Night" on campus violence

It's "A Piece of Tape" a cry for free expression

It is an apt depiction of the suffering of all living beings in "All Living Beings"

A real rapper is to use lyrics to gain insight into the dark side of society, and to "follow the rules"

Looking back at this movie, is India's caste system worth paying attention to? Has the health problem of the underprivileged been resolved?

Nothing.

Look at what the protagonist does... but if you do something in the world, it won't make me so sick

In order to avoid misleading the audience, I think this film should not be called "India Has Hip Hop", it may be more appropriate to change the title to "India Has Criminal Law"
