4.0 out of 5 stars Really Good Documentary, August 27, 2005

By	mistermaxxx@yahoo.com "mistermaxxx" (usa) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)

this DVD is really cool because it shows what a Manager does within the Music Business in the Land of Hip-Hop. also shows the A&R Department&also goes into detail about Budgets for Projects. I was hoping to see the Points a Artist gets per release&also the reaction of Artists through these meetings. but this is a Pretty Good documentary on the Corperate World of Hip-Hop Music.alot of Politics&Decision making.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent documentary behind the scenes, November 6, 2007

By	P. Curtwright (-- Chicago) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I plan to show this to my high school juniors/seniors, hoping they can work past the occasional f-bomb, as the presentation of the manager, A&R rep and other industry elites far outweighs the foul language. In particular we see smart, focused, professional young African-Americans making on-point decisions for their clients, putting in the long hours and dedication it takes to make themselves and their clients successful. Very well done. -- PC, Chicago

5.0 out of 5 stars Music Business 101, March 12, 2006

By	R. Jackson "Sayyid Woundur" (Wilmington, DE) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This DVD is essential to anyone wanting to be on the executive side of the music industry. This DVD shows the hard work and tears it takes to maintain in the music industry and its rewards.
