As Jay-z says in one of his songs "money, cash, hoes". Sure, the documentary probably just attacked it from a list perspective but monetary, commercial aspects is a big part if hip hop nowadays so why do you think it was wrong of them to present that side of it and show the business aspects that hip hop has provided. It evolved way past just the music and I dont see that as a negative.

Even in the roots of hip hop it wasn't just about the music. Tagging, breakin' and clothes were always a big staple. Nowadays they added cars, bling and video vixens. Correction, bling just replaced the big gold chains.
