Backstage Movie Review 2000

Absolutely nothing about this concert film will appeal to those who do not already embrace hip-hop music. It follows several rappers on a bus tour. As the title suggests, most of the action takes place away from the auditoriums--in hotels, corridors, buses, and bathrooms. The guys swear constantly, smoke a lot of dope, and brag about their various exploits.
