After two successful screenings in New York and one in Baltimore the controversial Hip Hop comedy, “Monkey Gang: The Mockuementary” will have its final NYC summer screening this Saturday 8/20 at 7pm in New York at the Anthology Film Archives at 32 2nd Ave in Manhattan.
“Monkey Gang” The Mockumentary (Director’s Cut) is a MUST SEE!A Mock/Documentary about the current state of Hip Hop Culture, & the story of the rise & fall of fictional gangsta rap group”Monkey Gang”
Not only are people saying its very funny, they also admit to the movie being revolutionary, yet to some it’s border line offensive. This is attributed to the topics and situations that this movie
spoofs & exposes; also the “hold no punches” approach of the cast (MC Mighty Casey, & more) and company
(Chicken & Beef INC, & associates).
This is an unprecedented grassroots effort, raising conciseness of the origin & pollution of hip hop. So we are raising funds as well, so that the movie can showcase on numerous screens across the nation in the forthcoming months so if you can, please show your support!
Tickets are only $10 in advanced
