Rap World is a great drama film with a documentary spin to it. It depicts a ‘so bad that it is actually good’ example of nonholo graphic style filming. It makes for an interesting development as it tells the story of three kids who collaborated to create a cringe-worthy video recording that we are sure many people would want.
In the film, the three kids hype it up by stating that the so-called punch which is a ‘great use of irony’ meets ‘hunter x hunter style manic nostalgia‘. It does explain this rise to a niche that people will always seek. Displaying this with a release on YouTube would amass millions as sadly these videos exist and people end up searching for it. Of the three kids, O’Malley does emerge to be the most memorable one, all thanks to his personal style selection and over-the-top cringe humor, along with being a wannabe rapper seeking work in a simply put franchise cinema.
The storyline starts as he meets his smiling better halves, and they leave with their arms wide open to a wonderful night that their kids will talk about. All that is bound to get old all the awesome bit of sleepover parties and in most cases do. But the only difference is that the abovementioned are boys in their mid-twenties or early thirties age brackets, which gives them just about enough lost sense of idealism, and real time wasted on the actual plans that they have made for the night.
What a world of irony we live in while the makers of the film chose to start from the opposite side of the globe and their first premiere was to happen in new york pleasured within the walls of the brooklyn academy of music this past week only to get a smack at the end of this reunion shining from the teeming clouds of people who wanted to try the film out. Such is the irony of the film which at being counterproductive and still rather uncanny to the pieces of art, that a lot of friends had a good laugh at, two hands and three are of a ‘friend white’ if you will.
So, the advance can be seen as a tribute to the effort, which is endearing such to the rap world even though, it is funny and sad at the same time, and not so much of a home music and movie making which is bewildering.
It is easy to picture how the three must have appeared when they were much younger, and may be that’s what the creators of 2009 seem to be around the time which was during the casting. The cinematographers are perfectly adequate in constructing a set design that captures both an incredibly celebratory and tremendously depressing emotion. It’s as if they regard the movies to be decorous, every corridor is a playground, all the dark corridors and vacant auditoriums are fascinating mysteries for the ones who wait for the last customer to leave, toward the already ominous littered set. And then there are the “small” things. Everything is shot on a digital video camera, with some conditions. In the future, a Samsung phone with a nice slid-out QWERTY keyboard will allow the boys to get in touch with people they will meet. A TV, a VCR, and a DVD player are there too.
In addition, they are the owners of a Nintendo Wii, which was a mere dream alongside the promises of change that the era of Obama had to offer. Another dimension that Rap World also attempts to explore is that of geography.
Watching these white lifers aimlessly wander the suburban streets in search of something is both hilarious and somewhat tragic. The analysis illustrates the messiness of such reality with all its absurdity, but without pity or in the revisionist fetishism to which so many other ‘real’ worlds to which they are clearly so close, are subjected. Their awareness and the love of being located somewhere have something to enjoy and admire. O’Malley’s character says, some of the best memories they have in their life are outside in the parking lots.
A viewer who is only interested in the entertainment aspect is not disclosed the processes of making of Rap World. In addition to the prominent cast, the director who was also the editor Bensinger was also able to compile a 56 minute long film using 70 hours of footage. The joy that comes with the movie Rap World is the viewing of a movie that is cringeworthy yet, kind of enjoyable. It quite honestly is a bad, and I mean cringingly bad, movie with a so called ‘character’ made by ‘guys’ for some ‘people’ wanting to see it.
This film is dubbed in the same broad context but the RULER film does a brilliant job of portraying the provoking moments and feelings of male lovestory. It would be rather telling that the night starts off with thrilling anticipation surpassing the edge.
After an eventful night involving unwarranted pranks, junk food, and testosterone, the three boys shift their focus towards the party they are planning to attend. As the night progresses, they relocate their attention towards alcohol, weed, and video games. Undoubtedly, this makes their time at the supermarket inefficient as they lose sight of their goals and take a much needed break. They begin to realize the amount of trouble this can lead to but before they get a chance to figure things out, it’s too late their perspectives drastically shift. The tension in the room escalates and soon enough, they start to panic. Out of the blue, a new rap album triggers an inspiration that helps them overcome the stress.
Shifting the conversation towards the Question and Answer session that took place shortly after the directors unveiled ‘Rap World’, it is safe to say that everyone was highly confused. The directors were uncertain when to classify their project as a movie and were reluctant in calling it one. However, it is more than clear that it is embedded deep in the underground culture of the Kuchars and is a series in itself. The buzz surrounding this project continues to grow, and all signs indicate that it will only continue to grow.
This film boasts a simplistic and well-known identification style which is quite frequently found in the creations of the O’Malley YouTube channel. The platform which creativity was supposed to be initiated as the real creators depicted is where this film is likely to survive, which is reasonable given the insight.
Its aged nature, I think would have allowed it to garner just a couple dozens likes, a couple of comments and a handful of views over the period of 15 years, imagine the rate at which people would watch and interact with it today, they surely would have slowly started to watch it significantly less, but its beauty would have remained.
