so they’re gonna make a movie about the legendary Juice Crew… for those who don’t know Marley Marl and Mr Magic founded probably the most formidable rap alliance of the 1980’s, showcasing the indelible rap styles of Big Daddy Kane, MC Shan, Kool G Rap, Biz Markie, Craig G, Masta Ace, TJ Swan, Roxanne Shante and Tragedy Khadafi (with DJs Cool V, Polo, and of course Mr Magic and Marley Marl). Together they dropped a shitload of essential records on the Cold Chillin and Prism labels and basically, with the inimitable Kool G Rap, hilarious Biz Markie and verbally profound Kane, Craig and Ace, took the hiphop game to the next level…. the movie goes into production this month, so I’m guessing will be released early 2009. Personally a documentary of archive footage and up to date interviews would suit me better, but hey we’ll see what Furqaan Clover comes up with. Oh and it seems that Cuba Gooding Jr, otherwise known as Tre Styles from Boyz n the Hood, is gonna play the drummachine don Marley Marl. Real hiphop fans around the world are waiting with baited breath!
