Good, But Not Up To ExpectatcionsSep 13, 2004
By Judson 1
Not having seen the first Beef, Beef II is not quite what it is expected to be. You expect to hear full battle raps or the punch line to a battle that you make you say, "DAMN!!! He ripped a new one!!!" This only happens with Canibus and LL, in which LL got wooped, but being who he is, didn't losing credit or status. The Beef series is a good way to understand why battles occur and why friends become foes (Eric & P of EPMD, Eminem & Royce da 5'9"). It also shows that you can solve problems man to man (Ice Cube & B-Real (Cypress Hill). I would recommend this dVd to everyone. It is a good buy, but when it's over, you feel like there should be more to it. So buy Beef II and get Beef I, sit down and take a history class on Hip-Hop.

Alright DVD, i enjoyed Beef 1 betterDec 14, 2004
By ThaHed
"Tay"
I highly anticpated this and i ordered it of of sandbox automatic, hoping that i would get another enjoyable experience of beefs in hip hop like i did in the original. It turns out that Beef 2 doesn't have the same spark as the first one and the interviews with hip hop artists are from the same interview as in beef one, not the same words, but taken from the same interview, more interviews with different artists could have helped instead of mostly the same artist being interviewed besides two second scenes Saigon, Onyx, Redman,Method Man, Angie Martinez and such. They still have huge amounts of time with interviews with KRS-One,Big Daddy Kane, and Ice-T, the KRS-One interviews he gets out of control, which is entertaining and i have had huge amounts of laughter over the KRS-One footage with him being interviewd, but in the end they did some good jobs and some lazy footage. I didn't enjoy the Roxanne Shante peice much, but i liked the Cypress Hill Vs. Westside Connection, it helped me learn about the beef i didn't no much about it. I don't know if the EPMD beef was nessecary it wasn't like Erick and Parrish lyrical dissed each other or anything but was interesting. The LL Cool J Vs. Canibus was appealing, as Canibus is one of my favorite Emcee's of all time and they breakdown the "4,3,2,1" story. The DMX Vs. K-Solo was dissapointing, although, K-Solo had some hot bars in the middle of the dvd, the lie detector test was stupid. The KRS-One Vs. Nelly was covered well a Nelly interview could have been better, instead of a phone conversation. Finally the Royce Da 5'9" Vs. D-12 beef was the last one and it was good and all but there was no Eminem vocals or interviews speaking about it which could have made a difference it was just ugly Bizzare running of with the mouth and Proof speaking on the beef, views of the beef from the leader of D-12, Eminem could have helped and the DVD shouldn't have ended on 5'9" vs D-12, it ended like just when you where getting into it. Bonus Footage included the "Let's Go" video featuring KRS-One, Warren G and a Asian female emcee Lil'Ai and also you hear Violent J of ICP speak about a beef with Eminem and Grand Master Caz hilariously diss Big Bank Hank of Sugar Hill Gang who jacked Caz's lyrics on the classic "Rappers Delight". Overall Beef 1 was most definetley better, but Beef 2 is worth a look, if you are interested in details in any of the hop hop beefs i mentioned.
3/5

 Know the history of the culture of hip hopApr 09, 2005
By DJ I DA I
I find it very interesting that people rated this documentary so low. It's obvious that they are looking for something instead of accepting it for what it is. I applaud Q3 for his efforts because he kept it true to the culture of hip hop and its historic events.
The segment on "Roxanne" may be uninteresting to those who didn't live through that era, but those of us who did remember how large those records were and even though it was "Beef", it remained on record and never indicated the taking of anothers life. The younger generation is being drawn towards extreme violence because of what the music industry has done to hip hop in order to sell records.
Many have forgotten EPMD, (which is without a doubt, one of the all time greatest hip hop groups) and how "Business" ended their reign is given it's due in this segement. EPMD produced the Hit Squad (which would have rivaled the WU..yes I said it)Redman, Keith Murray, Das EFX, K-Solo, Molly G, with Sermon on the boards? Just think...
Ice Cube is a staple in hip hop history. The Cypress Hill "Beef" was major because of the magnitude of people that could have gotten involved. I can respect the Hill, but Cube has always been a Chameleon in hip hop. From the Bomb Squad to "hip hop started in the west"...Those who know..Know.
It goes on and on with through breakdown of several historic battles. The Nelly/KRS battle is the crux of hip hop's dilemia. The corporation/hip hop culture battle. The corporation has packaged hip hop into what the youth perceive it as...Nelly..when it is the culture of those that lived it that created hip hop...KRS. Who you believe won the battle determines which aspect of hip hop your connected to.
I failed to mention the LL/Canibus or the Royce 5'9/D12 issue, but they are done just as well. Perhaps the most ironic victor of all these battles is Roxanne Shante. You will have to see the DVD to understand my point.
Bottom line this is a wonderful addition to the first. All of these DVDs will be of the utmost importance as the years go by. Those of us that understand the "culture" understand that it needs to be maintained. Q3 has played his part in that. To the critics..what have you done?

It's okDec 02, 2005
This isn't as good as the first one but you still get some pretty good battles. The best one in my opinion is cypress hill vs. westside connection. Man that beef was vicious. Most of this dvd is about how bussines can turn former friends into bitter rivalries. You also see the roxanne battle, ice cube vs priority records, nelly vs. krs one and others. Well if you can find it at a video store and rent it first or find someone who has it and see it first before you buy it.

 BEEF II Glad Cannibus Struck At LL.Apr 12, 2011
By Jose Lopez
"Jose Lopez"
Beef 1 is the best one of the 4,the only reason worth watching is Pac',all the rest is just post-1996(Rap Game is Dead)malarkey,Biggie,G a y -Z, flab boy,mobb sleep are all whack, East Coast Rap unless it's 80s or BDI and Bootcamp Clik/SmiffnWessum it doesn't matter, And all these so-called "Positive Rappers" as Willie D once said Positivity ain't getting nobody paid. All these back-packers read Fake muslims(Nation of Islam is a Radical Communist Sect-yet they have an monopoly on bean pies and providing security for the industry,ironically the suspect last seen around BIG was an Bowtie wearing "Peaceful" follower.) The only ones worth listening to Yukmouth,Scarface,Willie D,Dru Down,E-40,Bone,Spice 1,GrandMaster Flash,Big Daddy Kane,but all these others are all over rated,Krs-one is one self centered sucka MC.Backpackers or bling rap is still dead.
