Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - This Movie Should Be Called "Suckin'"
I have never heard of this movie before and I regret spending an hour and 33 minutes of my time watching it yesterday. "Rappin' has to be the cheesiest, most boring film ever made in the 1980's. Imagine how surprised I was to discover that this movie was filmed in Pittsburgh. A lame movie filmed in a lame city! I can't even remember the last time I had seen so many white people up on the Hill District where the movie took place- they're actually terrified to go up there. The only good thing about ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Rappin'!
This is the perfect movie to watch with some friends, MST3K-style. I have never seen such shlock in my life. It is awful beyond compare. "It's so bad, it's good" was never more fitting. The music is terrible. The acting is horrendous. You do get to see a young Ice-T at a rap audition doing what sounds like a demo version of "Cop Killer." And listen to our hero rapping about colors for a group of kids ("Green is the color of the rasta's stash!"). Sealab 2021 fans should be happy to see that Harry Goz ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Joanna Gardner
Joanna Gardner was in one of the scenes singing with Eugene Wilde. They sounded wonderful! Joanna is definately a star and anyone that workd with her will be delighted! Her voice is definately phenominal!



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - JUST STICK WITH KRUSH GROOVE ~~~~
There area few pioneers in the movie - thats cool. I hate to say it, this movie was stupid, even back when it was produced. Just watch Krush Groove, its way more entertaining.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Rappin'
This was one of my favorite movies as a kid. Even though the performances are not fabulous the film is memorable for it's cast. Even Ice-T has one of his pre-gangsta performances i.e. Breakin' & Breakin'2. This is a must have for 80s hip hop fans. Eric LaSalle of E.R. fame even stars in this film alongside Mario Van Peebles. This film is a reminder of how simple life was in the 80s and how easy it was to make films that appeal to a culture.
