4 stars If Rhyme is the Reason
If you're looking for a look into the revolution that is Hip Hop, you've decided to take a glipse into the insides of some of real mc's behind the game. With rhyme and reason, you hear from some of the greatest names behind this cultural revolution. With appearances from the worlds best mcs such as Method Man, The Rza, and even Biz Markie, you get a ideal of what the hip hop game is truly about, not to mention Ice-T sporting a wu-tang shirt, so in conclusion show some love and watch this definitely. Otherwise you may as well fall on your head like a tragedy....

4 stars The Hip Hop Psyche
"Rhyme and Reason" gives the reason (motivations) behind the rhyme (rap) in a very respectful and honest way. It also provides a good basic historical overview of the movement of hip hop.

5 stars The best doc on hip-hop ever!
The culture of hip-hop is totally analyzed here. Great music, and a great message. I just saw it recently, and made me feel like I wish we could go back and live that time again. They were keeping it real with this one.

Little Brother Get Back CD  (2007)

Rhyme & Reason movie DVD
CD $12.15  3.8 stars Audio Samples
On Little Brother's third studio album GETBACK, 9th Wonder backs off the boards, producing just one cut and yielding production credits to Illmind, Khrysis, Mr. Porter, Nottz, Rashid Hadee, Zo!, and Hi-Tek. The end result is still an incredibly cohesive LP that relies on elevated lyricism and true-school reverence. Phonte and Big Pooh continue to hone their already-impressive mic skills, deconstructing narratives behind brand name materialism, myths of celebrity glamour, and flimsy arguments that blame hip-hop for society's ills. Lil Wayne, Carlitta Durand, Darien Brockington, Jozeemo, and Dion make guest appearances. GETBACK is another example of innovative hip-hop from one of the underground's most talented acts.

Fire Engines Hungry Beat CD  (2007)

Rhyme & Reason video
CD $11.55  Top 500
Thanks in part to the popularity of Scottish dance-rock act Franz Ferdinand in the early 2000s, the Fire Engines became perhaps the most name-dropped band most people had never actually heard. The band's limited recorded output was released on vinyl seven-inch, LP, and EP in the early '80s; it quickly went out of print, and became nearly impossible to track down. In 2007, Acute Records issued HUNGRY BEAT, a 16-track collection spread across the band's various releases, including its debut 1980 self-released single "Codex Communications." Offering a proto-dance punk sound pulled so tight you can practically bounce a quarter off it, the Fire Engines excelled at blending stutter-funk grooves with pre-C-86 jangle pop. A wonderful service to Britpop and post-punk fans alike, HUNGRY BEAT is absolutely essential. Recording ...

St. Louis Cardinals Vintage World Series Films 1960'S DVD  (1964)

Rhyme & Reason DVD
DVD $14.49
Major League baseball began creating official World Series films in 1943 to support and entertain the U.S. troops serving overseas. These films, which have since grown into dynamic documentaries, include some of the most exciting baseball moments of all time. This volume covers the St. Louis Cardinals in the series of 1964, 1967 and 1968. The famous '64 World Series had the powerhouse Cardinals (behind pitching great Bob Gibson) taking on the fading remnants of a great Yankees team, in games marked by tense pitching duels and heroic clutch hitting. In '67, the Cards faced the Red Sox, with predictable results, and in '68 they took on the Detroit Tigers behind the still-dominant Gibson and slugger Orlando Cepeda. This collection in cludes 3 official World Series films ...
