5.0 out of 5 stars THIS THING RIGHT HERE IS FOR MY PEOPLES IN THE STREETS!!!
Start to finish, this is for the true hip-hop/rap fans who can appreciate the end result of hardwork. The money/cash/hoes may upset some viewers but its all a part of life for most innercity/suburban youth nowadays. Picture Quality and angles are on point for a videomentary of Jay-Z's road to the riches. No positive images portrayed but the point is hard work does pay...

3.0 out of 5 stars Lighting, and sounds was excellent- the directing was not.
Jay-Z, " Streets is Watchimg", did not flow well, and even though I love this artist- I must tell the truth. He could have followed a better script that depicted the scenes, and also some scenes did not fit well with each other. The soundtrack was filled with rhythmic grooves sure to keep your attention throughout the movie. He gets props for making a movie,...

This review is from: Streets Is Watching [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Start to finish, this is for the true hip-hop/rap fans who can appreciate the end result of hardwork. The money/cash/hoes may upset some viewers but its all a part of life for most innercity/suburban youth nowadays. Picture Quality and angles are on point for a videomentary of Jay-Z's road to the riches. No positive images portrayed but the point is hard work does pay off and legit is the way to go (you will believe it sooner or later). The way the videos interlock with the story will have you thinking Jay got this thing locked and milking it for all it's worth. Best Videomentary/Short Movie in rap history to date. Sound track is Banging. For a Friday or Saturday late night with your peoples or your Boo. Will he do this every other album?

5.0 out of 5 stars Really Good Music Video Movie!!!, February 21, 2003
By 
This review is from: Streets Is Watching [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is really good....it's just kind of sad that he had to make this video to show his rap persona after dropping the commercial written "My Lifetime Vol. 1."

But he got his name back through this one and I guess that is what counts. This is really smart and I enjoyed watching it even after I seen it some years back.

If you are a Jay-Z fan then I recommend that you see this and check it out.....it's worth a look!!! Peace out folks!!!

This is Reese from SHAOLIN representing. I thought Streets is Watching you was off the hook. I think it should of been in the movies, then he would of had made mad money off of the movie. Love,Peace,and hair grease.

5.0 out of 5 stars I saw the video and I feel that Jay-Z and kept it real ., December 1, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Streets Is Watching [VHS] (VHS Tape)
The video was real . It defined the everyday life of a true "hustler".The best thing about it was no one was acting or trying to put on a show for the camera. In closing, I just love Jay-Z and will watch or buy anything with him on or featuring in it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jay-Z is a deep thinking artist, May 31, 2002
This review is from: Streets Is Watching [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Jay-Z, maybe young, but his thinking is old. He is deep, and the words of his songs are worth thinking about, and try to use some of his advice in your life. GO JAY-Z, I LOVE YOU.

4.0 out of 5 stars must have, December 24, 2001
By 
dj>_ (closer than you think) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Streets Is Watching [VHS] (VHS Tape)
yeah, Master P started the direct to video hip hop trend....... but you knew N.Y. cats would put their own spin on it.
Not to bite but this is a BLUEPRINT on how to produce a long video/short movie: bangin songs,good production values and humor.
the BAD chicks didn't hurt either.
This is the vehicle that brought Jay-Z back after that "Sunshine/City is Mine" debacle. he even takes it back to the old school to visually prove to everybody that by 94, he became the subject of half of y'all's rhymes

5.0 out of 5 stars THIS FLICK WAS OFF DA HOOK, BELIEVE THAT !!!, September 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Streets Is Watching [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Jay-Z is letting ya'll know out here what's really going on out here in the streets and he could care less what the media or anyone else thinks about him. This thing will open up your eyes and really make you think about "STREET-LIFE" and how the game is played altogether. Believe that!!

Streets is watching is the best D%#@ movie I've seen in a while. Jigga is the illest rapper I know. Unlike that Master P sh%# we hearing. Jahova needs to come out wit another movie wit Bleek,Dash,Sauce,Beanie Seagal,and Jaz.

This review is from: Streets Is Watching [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Straight honest, Jigga is THE best out right now!!!! This video is toooo hot to describe!!!! It's like an hour long video. When I heard it was like that, I thought it was gonna be trash, when I saw it though, the people I was watchin it with damn near threw me out!!! This video will definately get you out your seat. I turn up the volume all the way, cut off the phone and lock the door everytime I watch it. This is off the hook!!! I seen it a hundred times and I still wanna see a again. I borrowed the movie first time I watched it, tried to dead my peeps on it , they wasn't hearin it so I;m here at this site to get my own copy. This is a can't miss flick, see it and you'll understand!!!!!
