Description
C-Murder's music is all about where he grew up in Calliope 3rd Ward (CP3), one of the toughest projects in New Orleans, where poverty, drug abuse and violence are epidemic. For the first time, see his neighborhood uncensored: gunfire breaking out... children toting guns in their waistbands... the young men who died too early... as well as the warmth and camaradeire so vital to the neighborhood's survival. Also see dirty dancing at the Rhythm City nightclub and the music videos that the club inspired. Getting to know where C-Murder's from and his lifestyle is the only way to really get inside his music.

I was going to buy this DVD because of the reviews here and it said that it last for like 109 minutes but when I saw the back of it, in my local video store, it said 48 minutes...so, which one is it?

109 minutes or 48 minutes?

I'm still gonna give it 5 stars tho cuz it looks interesting!

This documentary is Real and Raw it gives you a perspective on life in new orleans Uptown Ghetto. showing raw footage of Calliope, Magnolia and Melphomine housing projects in New Olreans. It also shows you the kinship, loyalty and unity that is so vital to this community and other communities like it across the country. If you dont have it, buy it.


4 out of 5 stars A Must See   July 16, 2004
 4 out of 5 found this review helpful

This DVD is packed with some shocking and disturbing things. Rapper C-Murder walks around New Orleans toughest housing projects(Magnolia, Calliope, Melphomine) and gives you and insight on how life is down there. You're gonna see teenagers walking around toting guns on there waist side and releshing the street life. The most disturbing part of this DVD is while filming 3 people are murdered. Slain rapper Soulja Slim is featured in this and rapper Turk from the Hot Boys has a brief appearance.

If you're a fan of C-Murder or gangsta rap you gotta see this DVD.

This is a must see!!!!
