"...and they were like, bet!"

my favorite part of the interview. :)

This interview is fantastic. Thank you for bringing this stuff to the web. You're a great interviewer too, only alluding to things and keeping it concise on your part and leaving Charlie to do the talking. Keep up the good work; this is my favorite video blog and it's only getting better.

That's an interesting point about the Bronx. There was really no explanation for how the BX was back then. Maybe there is, but I can't think of what it is.

Good interview. I would like to see more.

Imagine the difficulty it was shooting this movie back then with all the heavy equipment. Times have changed.

Dope interview indeed. Interesting how Charlie made some topical commentary about the film and shattered the illusion of how some folks associate being locked up with street cred. It's true, I can't think of saying his last name that way either.
Peace.

Great interview, can't wait for the second part. This was a really pioneering movie and captured a historic point of the Bronx in the '80's...Check my blog, www.wheretheyat.blogspot.com.

Great interview jay. Is there anyway this video can be downloaded? I'm writing an undergrad thesis on representations of space in hip hop and would love to cite portions of the interview. Regardless, its refreshing to see a cultural critic both passionate about and critically engaging issues in hip hop.

Thanks for bringing the Cat back..., Smooth.
