Does Idlewild got that swing, or ain't got that swing?Set in Prohibition-era Georgia, 1930s, Idlewild portrays the story of two childhood friends going in completely different directions. Percival—played by André 3000—is a quiet, introverted church pianist who dreams of playing bigger stages, and then there's Rooster, Big Boi's character, running the hottest speakeasy in town, the Idlewild club, dealing with gangsters and all the chaos that comes with it. It's a story about friendship, dreams, and survival —all set to an OutKast soundtrack in a glittering, dangerous Jazz Age world. Topics discussed:📸 A quick snapshot of this bold musical experiment🎤 Where this fits in the hip hop canon🎞️ Fun facts about this cult classic💥 The impact this film had on hip hop cinema😱 Fan reaction then and nowCreditsHip Hop Movie Club is produced by your HHMCs JB, BooGie, and DynoWright.
