“It’s not just a movie, it’s a movement”
The Attic was that fly guys room which was the popular hang out spot. Everyone wanted to check out and be down with the brothers. There were many good times and many lessons learned…..Up in the Attic! Filled with comedy, drama, hot hip hop music and a lot of fun.Young heads and old school heads will love it!
This film is a great conversation piece for dialogue that will help bridge the generation gap.

Up in the Attic the Movie Brief Summary....


Up In the Attic" is about a group of teenage young men, some of whom were 5%ers and B-Boys in Hip Hop’s Old School Era. They resided in the suburbs of NYC and hung out in the Attic of one of the guys whose mother worked several jobs and had an idea that her son wasn’t perfect, but at least she knew where he was at. The teens were the most popular brothers in the area. Everyone wanted to get with them and many started doing too much drugs and crime. The lead character started realizing that they were about to graduate from High School and it was time to start getting serious. Then he found out who his real friends were. Some of the young men turned out successful and others weren’t so lucky. “Up in the Attic” also provides sub themes of domestic abuse and messages for teens regarding general respect. It also has its comedic moments. We hope we will have everything completed by July 2009.....

It's that time so i bust a rhyme to define, how we celebrate and shine, after the grind
At my peoples I holla, cause it's holla day time
Aint no stoppin us now, we take a vow, to come to the Karamu
and stay a little while
to relax with the fam
and have a feast
It's been a good year cause we conquered the beast
We conquered all fear now we chillin in peace
ready for the new year
it's time for resolutions
soulutions
afromations
visualizations
We unite as one, in supreme elevation
Praisin the lord for divine creation

Happy Kwanzaa

It's Kwanzaa, clap your hands and through em up
Let your feet tap, come to the feast and kick back
You might even get the itis, and take a nap
But it's alright fam, cause its all about fam
You'll ressurect when we pray and hold hands
cause yo, we light a candle, every day
and pray that we always play this way.
and stay this way and praise this day
So keep the Kwanzaa Swagga, everyday
and find yourself in the kwanzaa spot today

Happy Kwanzaa

It's Kwanzaa, thanks to Maulana Karenga
For keeping the connect with Africa
The first fruits, in Kwazulu and Swahili
It reminds me of the color purple
with Miss Cieli,
and her children
It's glam to have fam, in the building
We reconnect---
With love in effect
It don't matter your religion
It's Africa we rep
To the Ancestors, We pour libations
and give thanks for the future generations

It's Kwanzaa
Happy Kwanzaa
