Skillmatic123 it's always someone making comments and stating alternative facts BEFORE watching the video. As if a valid point is being made 😂😂😂😂 talking about "she not tripping" well it ain't bcz of a PhD 😂😂😂
The fact that she could easily explain why they would always want to ensure there was no unity with female rappers, without giving some cliche answer.. makes it clear she's like OG. I actually learned something new.
Netflix is killing the game when it comes to original movies. 'Roxanne, Roxanne' truly highlighted various underlining messages that need to be discussed from teenagers taking on adult responsibilities to older men preying on young girls. Phenomenal film and kudos to Netflix and Roxanne for this amazing film!
I met Roxanne Shante and MC Shan at a concert at the Hyatt in Oakland Ca 1984, I was 9 years old. She was so dope, she made THE REAL ROXANNE from UTFO cry on stage it was crazy. She has an Iconic voice and dope rap style, she paved the way for female rappers. She still looks good, I am happy she is finally getting recognized with a movie that will last till the test of time.
I saw Roxanne Roxanne yesterday, I was pissed when it was over! I definitely wanted to know more about her growing as a young adult with a child, when she started school [college], why she decided to get her degree. I'm so intrigued by her story!
Tee Cee Natural here read this. They exposed her years ago www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/hey_wait_a_minute/2009/09/roxannes_nonexistent_revenge.html
Nicky Krystals OMG I had no idea she lied! I remember years ago she did say she received her doctorate and she did acknowledge it. That's very disappointing because I really thought she received her doctorate. I wonder if I can find it online when she did say she's a doctor. 🤔
Tee Cee Natural me too. I was like really proud of her. Was like that's dope af. Hold up lemme find this interview where she's actually giving medical advice lmmfaoooooo she's pathological.
Just finished watching the movie. The lead portraying her had her mannerisms and characteristics down to a T. Especially with Boo-Boo from _The Get Down_ as young Nas. That was just pivotal. Shante _definitely_ brought the female hip-hop scene all the way up in her time! Salute!!
I was so happy to see dude from The Get Down as the Nas cameo! The movie was super good and I hope it educates as many younger people just like it did me
Props to Shante'. She's a very intelligent sister. I'm so glad she has a level head and came on and dropped so many jewels about ego and maturity. I'm glad she put the movie out because I was getting mishandled by my mother and men the exact same way. The movie was theraputic for me. Much love and success to you Sis.
She is so profoundly secure in her own craft and overwhelmingly knowledgeable about her impact, footprint on hip hop culture. So much respect for Roxanne Shante! The best who's ever done it! #certified #genuine
This movie came out of nowhere and did the most for me. I was not talking to my son for almost a month before this day. I had lunch with a friend and he told me that life was too short to be petty with my family. All I wanted was a date with my son and through a meeting with my friend who encouraged me to rectify my relationships that were broken to keep them sustained, I was able to practice forgiveness, patience and love. My birthday is next week and all I care about is spending time with my son.
I still can't believe they made a movie about her. That shit hit me like a ton of bricks. I didn't expect it. Can't wait to watch it when i get home. I love Roxanne Shante. I remember her squeeky voice blasting outta cars in Brooklyn. As a music producer now, Watcging that movie with the kids is very important to me tonight. I even heard a young Nas is in it. My oldest son who worships Nas is gon flip. They don't even know its out. I'm not even gonna tell em anything. I'ma make em just watch it. They don't know who Roxanne Shante is, But they gon find out tonight.
Roxanne Shante movie was the bomb it's a must watch movie. She's definitely a hip hop legend and I'm glad she receiving her flowers while she still living
Nyesha Brooks that movie was boring and wack. I'm happy that she benefited from having a movie about her bc I never knock a legal check but this was another Netflix boring movie
Given the budget, I think they did a great job. I lived during this era and a lot of what I saw in the movie had me reminiscing about the past. We lived for those rap battles. If they really wanted to make it powerful they could of gave us more of her battling.
Just finished watching the movie on Netflix. It was a great movie! very well written, and true to the era. Nia long killed her role, and so did Chante Adams.
slick1hit very true!!! But Nia long had me thinking I was watching Monique in precious again😅 she played that role too well with her bitter ass character.
It's weird to me that white people shouldn't listen to black music. I grew up listening to what we now refer to as old school hip hop and rare groove and probably know more about it than the people making these comments. To me it is part of my culture, like it or not. Although there are racists in England, even they are not dumb enough to suggest that we shouldn't listen to each others music.
TheFactsAccordingToGabbie1791 No I'm saying everyone, both men and women not just female rappers. And female rappers definitely don't have it easy they always have to show skin to get noticed.
Yo, please don't get me wrong. I love the movie but I'm one of the ones who thinks the movie should've been longer. The touring, The Krs-One beef, more Cold Chillin, and I feel like more of that added would have made this movie even more dope. Been a fan when I first heard her music (and other albums) going through my brother's records and tapes in like 89-1990 when I was 7 years old. After those moments I been a fan of Hip Hop ever since lol. This interview is dope.
I felt the same way also however I think they really wanted to focus more on her personal side and less on the music. They probably had some budget limitations as well.
It would have been nice if they showed who exactly ripped her off of her money. Marley Marl camp is quiet. He claims he knows nothing but they had the same manager
I wish the movie was longer, but after watching and learning some of her story and meeting her in person I definitely have a deeper respect for this Queen 👑 , the young lady also did a great job playing her , and Nia Long can do no wrong 😍😍😍😘
Queen Tajae Yeah there's so much they didn't touch on. Her battle with KRS-One, her Big Mama diss, the Cornell school lie, her work as a casa (court appointed special advocate)....a lot.
Queen Tajae or a book. I will like to know what happened with her years after. I believe she went to college and is a licensed psychologist. I could be wrong. I wish the movie would have added another 30 minutes or so
Listening to her breakdown the progression of female hip hop artist, and the need to properly finesse a battle rap response is so beautifully articulated!
I'm so glad her story is being told by her! A legend and a boss back in a time when it was not even thought of for women. Better yet little black girls from the projects. Such an inspiration!
Shante’s attitude toward receiving her blessings was waaaay different than Monique. Got a whole biopic and didn’t throw anyone else under the bus. Peace and love Shante, I loved the movie.
The movie was so dope. I grew up listening to Roxanne Latifah and Lyte. Like I be 2 hype when I hear these ladies and what they talking about in their lyrics, it's raw. They had something to fight for. Today's music is hard to understand when you don't hear the struggle. 2018 and I still and will always play old school. Big fan Shani!!
This movie was dope AF! Very very VERY powerful!!! I literally balled my eyes out and not the regular cry, it was a huffing puffing and short of breathe cuz ur crying so hard cry. That’s how touching it is! Her story is very sad & powerful!!! Glad to see she over came it all
Beautiful interview--so humble and much wisdom. And, indeed, the movie is beautifully told--all should celebrate Roxanne Shante by viewing the movie. Thanks for the interview.
It’s rare that I get moved by movies but man I shed some tears for the stuff she went thru. I got a daughter and I wouldn’t want her to go thru that. But I’m very proud of Roxane shaunte for still making it thru all them storms. Great movie.
Watching this interview for me is like my grandmother made my favorite meal and I’m sitting there enjoying every morsel! The Era of Roxanne was the Best and I just am so proud of her accomplishments!
Just watched the movie!!!! It was EVERYTHING.. it shows you Nas’ Beginnings (Biz Markie, Marley Marl) you get to see the other Roxanne and all.. The whole Queens culture, how everything begins.. But most importantly you get to see Roxanne Shante killing all the battles and her over story.. So good and powerful 😩😩😩🖤
Dope interview. I have even more respect and admiration for her now. The movie was also amazing. Chante Adams is such a sweetheart and I hope to see her a lot more.
smokey. mcwallace nah they ain't even touch on this lie! Shante has no credibility she's a pathological liar! Peep this bullshit ua-cam.com/video/oTcBqaVoyAI/v-deo.html
I was too young to completely understand and enjoy Miss Shante music but my older sister did (plus she dated slick Rick briefly) and she put me on to her. I grew up in the lil Kim, Foxxy Brown, Eve, Amil and Da brat era.
yes! I could listen to this women all day. would love to hear even more of her journey. I remember being a child of the 80's when she came on the scene....loved everything about the biopic except that it was not longer.
Dawnzalea Byers Exactly... I felt that the movie was incomplete at the end, she should of made it like the new edition movie from beginning to end. She didn't explain how she had made her lawyer type up an iron clad contract that help mold her future. New artists need to hear and learn about that.
Yes I wanted to see her group home experience that she always talks about. And the other children she had after her first child. Also how she met her husband. I need a part two!
I wish they would've talked about her 1992 song "Big Mama" where she went allll the way in on Latifah, Yoyo, Lyte , and the rest of the girls around that time. but yes, I do understand its all about being positive now.
Billy T Shante was like a female 50, she beefed with everyone. LL, Run DMC, KRS One, Salt n Pepa, Latifah, Yo Yo, Lyte. But Lyte, Yo Yo, Latifah and Salt n Pepa came back so hard at Shante.
This was an AWESOME movie! Took me way back. I was so empathetic to the struggle of the 80s, coming up in that era and dealing with similar home life myself. Roxanne Shante' is a pioneer, so humble, and her story deserved to be told. Much Love ❤️
Dope film. Everyone was great but someone give Nia Long some recognition for her performance. She killed it!!!!
Daryl Sams she absolutely did
Yes!!! She played the hell out of that roll. I was scared of her for Shante
Jupiter Moon Girl, me too! Brought back flashbacks lol. Nia dis her thang
Yaaas!
That death stare she was giving!!!
This woman is spiritually grounded. Her lack of anger and humble outlook is why these blessing keep happening.
John JohnRN86 amen
Glad to see her humble now. Back in the day, she was nasty asf dissing females.
That was an act lol
A.B. Cee It was a part of the job. Female rappers needed to hype up attention.
Yeah dread I love her n biz markie on 98.7 KISS with Kool dj red Alert
This young lady only had only 8 days to prepare for the role of Roxanne Shante' and owned it 100%.
Godamn only 8?! Shiit!
Nia long played the hell out of that role, i didn't know she could act like that.
Santana Gonsalves I was shocked when she stated cussing.
Well then you’re not a fan. Smh
D_money exactly...Nia is an excellent actress and has always been.
how...? Shante, I understand. but you didn’t know that Nia Long could act as well as she can...?
Nia has always been an amazing mind blowing actress love me some nia long
Nia Long and Chante did Great jobs in this Film. Go watch!
Jibril Builder yes I'm glad to Nia played a different role.. She was awesome
She’s very posed, confident and lacks anger ... that’s real spirituality manifested
KnwName she a phd and a doctor she not tripping
#WaterSigns
Nikki Nicole She literally said she doesn't have a PhD. I'm guessing you didn't watch the full interview.
Skillmatic123 it's always someone making comments and stating alternative facts BEFORE watching the video. As if a valid point is being made 😂😂😂😂 talking about "she not tripping" well it ain't bcz of a PhD 😂😂😂
The fact that she could easily explain why they would always want to ensure there was no unity with female rappers, without giving some cliche answer.. makes it clear she's like OG. I actually learned something new.
Abigail Jones I like how she so straight up whenever she expresses herself
Roxanne Shante is just too jealous
I love Cats ... stfu you seem like the one that’s jealous
They look like mother & daughter!😍
Anna Maye ikr, the casting was on point, Nia Long, too.
Ikr
Legend in the building and the movie was so dope to me.
Afric Network yes🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Yes legend for sure! I actually just watched the movie last night! They did a really good job on it.
#RoxanneRoxanne #RoxanneRevenge
The only thing that disappointed me was it wasn't longer. I could've watched more
Yes, I agree! May do a vlog about it.
Afric Network yes!! I loved the movie they did a great job

She has an Iconic voice and dope rap style, she paved the way for female rappers. She still looks good, I am happy she is finally getting recognized with a movie that will last till the test of time.
The fact that even the lead actress is named Chante just goes to show that this was in the cards
That's so spooky but cool. Chante looks like Roxanne's daughter.
I loveeee her humility and how she’s embracing other women in the game!
Patrisha Luxe you’re attractive
Yessir
Ronald Bell, Jr thank you
it took her a lloooon time to get to that point. she was known to diss all female rappers. remember this jam?ua-cam.com/video/OOLynxq4k9w/v-deo.html
Patrisha Luxe agreed
THE CHAMP IS HERE!!! I love the movie. It was amazing. I also loved this interview and seeing her.
Kay Jewels hey kay. Where are you from?
Kay Jewels Yes
old heads lmao
Nia long did an awesome job 👏🏿
Chanté Adams hair looks soooo good😍😍
I saw Roxanne Roxanne yesterday, I was pissed when it was over! I definitely wanted to know more about her growing as a young adult with a child, when she started school [college], why she decided to get her degree. I'm so intrigued by her story!
Tee Cee Natural she was exposed as a fraud for that degree thing. She's a pathological liar!
Tee Cee Natural here read this. They exposed her years ago www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/hey_wait_a_minute/2009/09/roxannes_nonexistent_revenge.html

Tee Cee Natural here's the original video where she said she got her doctors
ua-cam.com/video/oTcBqaVoyAI/v-deo.html
It’s crazy that she ran into Shante for this role and they look like mother and daughter.
like what are the chances ?!?!?!
God’s Plan
yall that ponytail is LAID love black ppl
Brittney O'Neal I was thinking the same thing
Lol facts
I wish they would've asked her about NAS
mzhotniz86 i was waiting for that
Yeah, I was waiting for that. Thought it was going to happen
But I'm guessing, these fools didnt watch the movie b4 doing this interview. Asking a bunch of stupid questions
It’s on sway
*sway’s universe
I smiled through this whole interview. I'm glad the OG is able to share her story!!
GulleyBoy the movie was good too
I'm surprised you aint covered her in your diss tracks you never heard lists
GulleyBoy #word
GulleyBoy Yesssssss before there was a Queen Lah and an MC Lyte
GulleyBoy I smiled through too!!! 😁
This actress did a great job. Totally believed she was the character. Nia Long also did a great job too.
omg , yes ! I had never heard of Roxanne Shante , but the way this actress brought her to life , I felt like I did & wanted to know more about her
The Movie was perfectly made and the girl playing Roxanne did a good job.
Now #Netflix we need a #Nas Biopic
Jay75Euro yes
PLEASE! YES!!!! NAS is like … imagine that.. that Biopic would Rule the World.. 🔥
girl that played Roxanne fine as hell
Just finished watching the movie. The lead portraying her had her mannerisms and characteristics down to a T. Especially with Boo-Boo from _The Get Down_ as young Nas. That was just pivotal. Shante _definitely_ brought the female hip-hop scene all the way up in her time! Salute!!
I was so happy to see dude from The Get Down as the Nas cameo! The movie was super good and I hope it educates as many younger people just like it did me
I agree!
David Richardson real spit!
Shingie Chagiya I agree. I always said Boo-Boo should play Nas in a biopic in some way. Now this should get the ball rolling for Nas' biopic now.
David Richardson he does resemble Nas a lot, the mannerisms and awkwardness were on point
Props to Shante'. She's a very intelligent sister. I'm so glad she has a level head and came on and dropped so many jewels about ego and maturity. I'm glad she put the movie out because I was getting mishandled by my mother and men the exact same way. The movie was theraputic for me. Much love and success to you Sis.
It was amazing!!! But I hated the way it ended...like I want more!!!! So good.
CJ Raiford Same here. I watched it with my cousin. When it ended we were like is that it? It's over?
Yes it’s like they ran out of money or something and just stopped. The ending was terrible but overall a good story.
Roxanne Shante is a real Queen. She speaks so eloquently, and is very wise. She's a great leader. She reminds me a lot of Sister Souljah,
That's because she is a Doctor
LOVED THE NETFLIX SPECIAL!
I WISH THEY COULD'VE DONE THE TUPAC MOVIE LIKE THAT... SHANTE' IS DEFINITELY A LIVING LEGEND
J. Lamar Bro i was saying the same thing That Tupac movie was all done wrong it just alright most of the stuff i Tupac’s movie i already knew
ken mckee Her movie was that Good. By the end of the movie, it made me think about how poorly directed 2pac's biopic was.
Right!!! PAC deserves it!
I got to watch the Tupac movie. Is it on Netflix? I agree they did a great job on Roxanne's movie.
Taylor, Faye Nah, they still want you to pay for it😒
Nia Long needs an oscar for her role.
Nia did her thing! Never saw her play a role like that before.
Of course she does.....
Nia was phenomenal.
Shit she played the role so good I thought I was her child damn lol she didn't play
YES, Nia did that!
She is so profoundly secure in her own craft and overwhelmingly knowledgeable about her impact, footprint on hip hop culture. So much respect for Roxanne Shante! The best who's ever done it! #certified #genuine
This woman speaks so eloquently and is unashamed of her story. Such an inspiration to all women from any walk of life.
I just got done watching her movie on Netflix. She did a great job with it! It really tells a story. I love it!
Li Taylor; Li's Life I watched the movie first then I had to see interview.
This movie came out of nowhere and did the most for me. I was not talking to my son for almost a month before this day. I had lunch with a friend and he told me that life was too short to be petty with my family. All I wanted was a date with my son and through a meeting with my friend who encouraged me to rectify my relationships that were broken to keep them sustained, I was able to practice forgiveness, patience and love. My birthday is next week and all I care about is spending time with my son.
That's love ❤
For her first movie (I think), Chanté Adams did a great job 👍🏾
I remember her as a tiny little girl. I always thought she was so strong, so brave. Still the same to this day
I still can't believe they made a movie about her. That shit hit me like a ton of bricks. I didn't expect it. Can't wait to watch it when i get home. I love Roxanne Shante. I remember her squeeky voice blasting outta cars in Brooklyn. As a music producer now, Watcging that movie with the kids is very important to me tonight. I even heard a young Nas is in it.

Roxanne Shante movie was the bomb it's a must watch movie. She's definitely a hip hop legend and I'm glad she receiving her flowers while she still living
Nyesha Brooks that movie was boring and wack. I'm happy that she benefited from having a movie about her bc I never knock a legal check but this was another Netflix boring movie
james Barber did they touch on why she lied about getting a doctors degree?
Nicky Krystals nope, now I felt like the ended should've and could've been better. It's like they stuck the storyline in her teens era.
+TheFactsAccordingToGabbie1791 so she can make twice as much p releasing the follow up movie....
Given the budget, I think they did a great job. I lived during this era and a lot of what I saw in the movie had me reminiscing about the past. We lived for those rap battles. If they really wanted to make it powerful they could of gave us more of her battling.
loved the movie just hated how it ended😔😔 wish it was longer.
I watch a interview where Roxanne said her mother was very pleased with Nia long playing her
drop the link
Tara Phillips yeah I saw that too
Essence interview
Just finished watching the movie on Netflix. It was a great movie! very well written, and true to the era. Nia long killed her role, and so did Chante Adams.
Yea I watched it last night, damn good movie
Yesss
slick1hit very true!!! But Nia long had me thinking I was watching Monique in precious again😅 she played that role too well with her bitter ass character.
Roxanne is DOPE. So humble and just all around good people yo. I'm mad she doesn't get enough recognition
Great inspiration for hip hop
I love Roxanne Shante
Legendary
Prestige
Diva
QUEEN
Very confident artist/woman - so glad she produced this movie so the world could hear and see her story!!!!
As a 14 year old white male, growing up in England at the time of the Roxanne phenomenon, I am so pleased to see that she finally made it.
Peter Poot You obviously live in a very small world. White people can't have black heros? Shame on you.
Success is relative. Her birth was discussed and planned millions of years before so that she can be here exactly as she is.
Eclectic Jon 101 white people are so funny but yr time is up.
Eclectic Jon 101 you're white, here's a cookie. Foh
It's weird to me that white people shouldn't listen to black music. I grew up listening to what we now refer to as old school hip hop and rare groove and probably know more about it than the people making these comments. To me it is part of my culture, like it or not. Although there are racists in England, even they are not dumb enough to suggest that we shouldn't listen to each others music.
She’s so smart and intelligent. I get chills hearing her speak. So powerful
P Chantel I got chills when I seen your sexy ass pic 😍
me too
I'd love to see her with a hair care line because her hair has always been healthy...🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
she is so smart...articulate like her
Deron Reed you're fine.
She is...
That movie was Amazing!!! She went through so much OMG they should have made it go to Movie theatre
Mia J How long is the movie?
Leaundra Gates i want to say about a hour and few mins i didn't want it to end
Leaundra Gates. Hr 42min
I know right . maybe a part two or diff look will make it to the theatres
Back when MCs actually had to prove themselves. Miss that era
millienl me too!! Today's lil female rappers have it too easy/simple compare to them back then.
TheFactsAccordingToGabbie1791 No I'm saying everyone, both men and women not just female rappers. And female rappers definitely don't have it easy they always have to show skin to get noticed.
C-LAROCK THE MAYOR I remember if you said you was an MC, you automatically ended up in a Cypher 😂 You HAD to prove it!
millienl - Oh man I miss the days of the Cypher's. I loved them!
Chante Adams bad 😍😍
On God. She can get it fs ‼️😩
Yo, please don't get me wrong. I love the movie but I'm one of the ones who thinks the movie should've been longer. The touring, The Krs-One beef, more Cold Chillin, and I feel like more of that added would have made this movie even more dope. Been a fan when I first heard her music (and other albums) going through my brother's records and tapes in like 89-1990 when I was 7 years old. After those moments I been a fan of Hip Hop ever since lol. This interview is dope.
I felt the same way also however I think they really wanted to focus more on her personal side and less on the music. They probably had some budget limitations as well.
Right that way I did street battle wrap.
Agree!!!
It would have been nice if they showed who exactly ripped her off of her money. Marley Marl camp is quiet. He claims he knows nothing but they had the same manager
I wish the movie was longer, but after watching and learning some of her story and meeting her in person I definitely have a deeper respect for this Queen 👑 , the young lady also did a great job playing her , and Nia Long can do no wrong 😍😍😍😘
There's no way they ain't already scripted the second one, twice as much p. If they ain't got the funds, Netflix will sort that asap.
I liked the movie she needs a part two
Queen Tajae aka Roxanne's REVENGE
Queen Tajae Yeah there's so much they didn't touch on. Her battle with KRS-One, her Big Mama diss, the Cornell school lie, her work as a casa (court appointed special advocate)....a lot.
Queen Tajae or a book. I will like to know what happened with her years after. I believe she went to college and is a licensed psychologist. I could be wrong. I wish the movie would have added another 30 minutes or so
The way it ended....i can definitely see a sequel.
l know, I was left hanging, waiting for more
I LOVE her spirit. So light and just joyous!
i love how down to earth she is soooo humble we need more women like this beautiful inside and out ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Man y'all betta respect these legends gotdammit!
She gave the best answer I’ve ever heard anyone give to the what do you think about female beef question and there only being one at a time.
Roxanne Shante is a beautiful spirit, and I love her wisdom and positivity. The movie was wonderful.
Listening to her breakdown the progression of female hip hop artist, and the need to properly finesse a battle rap response is so beautifully articulated!
I'm so glad her story is being told by her! A legend and a boss back in a time when it was not even thought of for women. Better yet little black girls from the projects. Such an inspiration!
Slim Goody exactly! we need more of this so legends full stories can be told
Ayesha Go. U single?
Slim Goody you ugly
Absolutely
This the first guest Envy actually knew something about.
Shante’s attitude toward receiving her blessings was waaaay different than Monique. Got a whole biopic and didn’t throw anyone else under the bus. Peace and love Shante, I loved the movie.
I LOVE HER!!! So well spoken, still young, level headed, just a all around fly chick
This needs to be there most viewed video not that other bs she spoke nothing but facts much respect and the movie was fire
kennyjg89 this lady a pathological liar foh. Her word is doo doo
kennyjg89 she lied about being a doctor lmmfaoooooo watch this
ua-cam.com/video/lvFcdQ5N4ws/v-deo.html
I’m SO HAPPY AND EXCITED for Roxanne Chanté. She deserves ALL the accolades and success.
Thanks Roxanne for speaking at my event! Great meeting you...ill never forget!!! Thanks Queen
She speaks so eloquently. Good interview.
The movie was so dope. I grew up listening to Roxanne Latifah and Lyte. Like I be 2 hype when I hear these ladies and what they talking about in their lyrics, it's raw. They had something to fight for. Today's music is hard to understand when you don't hear the struggle. 2018 and I still and will always play old school. Big fan Shani!!
april powell I lost respect for her when she was lying about being a doctor.
Love her interview and the way she thinks about waiting for her time to be blessed!!! Very intelligent and humble!! A true Legend...
She dropping the facts and wow you can tell she been through it and it is amazing the peace she has and damn sure deserves
This movie was dope AF! Very very VERY powerful!!! I literally balled my eyes out and not the regular cry, it was a huffing puffing and short of breathe cuz ur crying so hard cry. That’s how touching it is! Her story is very sad & powerful!!! Glad to see she over came it all
Omg....I love her. She dropped knowledge that I will be supplying to my life.
Beautiful interview--so humble and much wisdom. And, indeed, the movie is beautifully told--all should celebrate Roxanne Shante by viewing the movie. Thanks for the interview.
It’s rare that I get moved by movies but man I shed some tears for the stuff she went thru. I got a daughter and I wouldn’t want her to go thru that. But I’m very proud of Roxane shaunte for still making it thru all them storms. Great movie.
Chante played the heck out of this role.... Put that young lady in more movies!!!
damn she sound super humble alot of artist need to learn from her...
yeah , & it doesn't sound like that fake humble mumble jumble
Watching this interview for me is like my grandmother made my favorite meal and I’m sitting there enjoying every morsel! The Era of Roxanne was the Best and I just am so proud of her accomplishments!
What a wise, patient, humble and well enveloped woman. I love her!
The movie Roxanne Roxanne was nice.. I wouldn't mind a part. 2
Just watched the movie!!!! It was EVERYTHING.. it shows you Nas’ Beginnings (Biz Markie, Marley Marl) you get to see the other Roxanne and all.. The whole Queens culture, how everything begins.. But most importantly you get to see Roxanne Shante killing all the battles and her over story.. So good and powerful 😩😩😩🖤
she rap'd like 3 times the entire movie
ShonDeveron Shears 🙄 here we go... So what 🤷🏾♀️ they had to fit so much of her life in like short of two hours.. still dope 👌🏾
i like it okay...but it was kinda boring had some great moments..seemed liek they left alot out..
@@Hello_Im_Dev or yaw'll was expecting a whole lot
Roxanne Shante! She gave good talk about her life/career/contributions to female hip hop and is humble. She and I need to talk! Lol
Dope interview. I have even more respect and admiration for her now. The movie was also amazing. Chante Adams is such a sweetheart and I hope to see her a lot more.
Her story is amazing. I hope God stay blessing y’all❤️
Now this is the interview worth watching!
smokey. mcwallace Factossss
smokey. mcwallace nah they ain't even touch on this lie! Shante has no credibility she's a pathological liar! Peep this bullshit ua-cam.com/video/oTcBqaVoyAI/v-deo.html
smokey. mcwallace right, no stupid shit!
I fell in love with Hip Hop when I heard Roxanne Roxanne and memorized every single word!!! #1984
I was too young to completely understand and enjoy Miss Shante music but my older sister did (plus she dated slick Rick briefly) and she put me on to her. I grew up in the lil Kim, Foxxy Brown, Eve, Amil and Da brat era.
Candie P don't forget Missy Elliot.
XAVIER1992 definitely Missy
Candie P me too grew up in the 90s.
Candie P i heard about her through my sister as well and I was born in 88
Where is your friend that was screaming here's the champ
veverly sumlin Ranita
The champ is here lol loved her I just watched it just now finish watching it for the first time
mkedrona 😂😂
She was the best addition to her entourage, honestly.
She is preaching!!!! 👏👏👏 this really blessed me 💖
I love her mentality about this. She has the right attitude and this show on Netflix will be successful.
Love how positive she is! I love Roxanne Shante' :)
Shawnte Numekevor me too such a beautiful woman for our culture
I know right.... it's refreshing
Shawnte Numekevor yess!
The movie was good, but to short. Should have been a mini series
yes! I could listen to this women all day. would love to hear even more of her journey. I remember being a child of the 80's when she came on the scene....loved everything about the biopic except that it was not longer.
Me 2
i love this movie it was so good, but i wanted to see more of her life it should have been a mini series
Dawnzalea Byers Exactly... I felt that the movie was incomplete at the end, she should of made it like the new edition movie from beginning to end. She didn't explain how she had made her lawyer type up an iron clad contract that help mold her future. New artists need to hear and learn about that.
Yes I wanted to see her group home experience that she always talks about. And the other children she had after her first child. Also how she met her husband. I need a part two!
Yes I agree. I definitely wanted more
Another great interview after Erica Alexander's. I was just talking about Roxanne Shante. 👍🏾
Selena Thomas factd
Yes!!! Loved the Erica Alexander interview!
Selena Thomas faaaaaa
Exactly! both interviews!
It would've been greater but they put that 69 video first before this
I wish they would've talked about her 1992 song "Big Mama" where she went allll the way in on Latifah, Yoyo, Lyte , and the rest of the girls around that time. but yes, I do understand its all about being positive now.
Billy T Shante was like a female 50, she beefed with everyone. LL, Run DMC, KRS One, Salt n Pepa, Latifah, Yo Yo, Lyte. But Lyte, Yo Yo, Latifah and Salt n Pepa came back so hard at Shante.
Just watched it. Great film. Love Roxanne. I like the last scene at the end with Nas showing off his skills.
I'm not going to ruined the movie however the girl playing her did a he'll of job playing her.
Davon Gordon-White Yes She Did I Loved Her In The Movie
She did an amazing job
Roxanne throwing JEWELS! Thanks for this interview.
KRAS 4 FOR REAL...I'm taking it all in.
KRAS 4
*WUMP WUMP WUMP WUUUUUUMP*
Ayyyee!!! I’m hype I’m bout to watch the movie right now!
This was an AWESOME movie! Took me way back. I was so empathetic to the struggle of the 80s, coming up in that era and dealing with similar home life myself. Roxanne Shante' is a pioneer, so humble, and her story deserved to be told. Much Love ❤️
