The funny thing is in the last 48 hours of so many of these discussions I'm now thinking the only hip hop movies for ME are Wild Style, Beat Street and Breaking. To me Krush Groove, 8 Mile & Straight Outta Compton are only hip hop movies because they're based on those MC's stories.

@Kil889 Now I'm curious. What movies are considered Hip Hop besides Krush Groove and Beat Street?
