The Revival is documentary that was directed by female emcee, Invincible in Europe in 2009. Here's some background for the film from Invincible's site:
The Revival gives a candid glimpse into the first meeting of legendary Hip-Hop pioneer Roxanne Shante and veteran Philly emcee Bahamadia, as they trade stories of their struggles and triumphs in the industry over their long careers. It also shows the exchange of lessons between them and up-and-coming artists DJ Shortee, Eternia, Stacy Epps, andInvincible. This short documentary, a collage of performances and behind the scenes footage, was filmed and directed by Invincible while on the road in Europe as part of We-B Girlz all women in independent Hip-Hop tour. The largest all female Hip-Hop tour of its kind, it spanned over three weeks, six countries, and featured dozens of female artists who performed for tens of thousands of supporters.
Enjoy!
As support for the release of the documentary, The Fembassy featured weekly interviews of the artists who are in The Revival.
Produced by Emergence Media and Igaa the Olivetone, this is a interesting look inside the lives of real female emcees.
