This new movie is an urban drama similar to that of Boyz N the Hood, documenting the underworld of L.A. Hip Hop. It sounds like a typical love triangle plot but the music is what is going to make this movie. I am not big into this style of underground hip hop but I know quite a bit and I haven't heard of any of the artists on this soundtrack. Enter this review with a fresh mind because All or Nothing is bringing us a bunch of underground acts that deserve some attention. One of my favorite tracks is by an artist called Iroc with a track called "Worldly Things"?. The entire album has the R&B hip hop feel to it as opposed to hardcore but its good. It does get into the gangster rap a bit talking about being real in the streets. Another killer track is Ben Hated's "Escalades and Navigators"? which I believe is the first single on the album. Check out Eightball featured on the Young Draper track. It is good to know that the future rap stars are about to hit the scene hard. All or Nothing proves as a great introduction to a lot of these artists.
