nobody can agree before hand not to record if there's a fistfight.

Here's what I'm saying. Remember that scene when Rapaport asked Dave and Pos if they thought it was Tribe's last show, and Dave replied: "I hope so", and then went on to explain that he wouldn't want them going through the motions of being a group and pretending all the other shit hadn't happened. As a fan of the group, it would've been REALLY hard for me to film that fight and then pick up the camera later on and ask them what it was like hearing their shit on the radio for the first time. You see what I'm saying? I like documentaries, but sometimes I think they show fans a bit too much.

I'm pretty sure that Q-Tip has taken a lot of shit based on how he was presented in the movie. and all we saw was what happened during the 2 or 3 years when the doc was being made. We never saw the good shit.
