Recording sessions took place at One on One Studios in Los Angeles over an eight-month span that frequently found Metallica at odds with their new producer Bob Rock. It was released on August 12, 1991, by Elektra Records. Thumbs way up.Metallica (commonly known as The Black Album) is the fifth studio album by American heavy metal band Metallica. But, if you're inclined to read this, you will not be disappointed.

If not, something may be lost in translation. Energetic, always entertaining and humorous, this is a good film, especially if you're a hip hop fan.

This film would be a ten if it was just the concert from beginning to end. The making of the album footage, while interesting, because Jay-Z never writes his rhymes down, he memorizes them all, and kinda freestyles in the booth, that's very compelling. In short, this is an excellent concert film and if you are a Jay-Z fan, you should buy this one, because you will not be disappointed. Others, such as Missy Elliott and Foxy Brown barely make an impression. Twista, Kanye West, Memph Bleek and Beanie Siegel make an impression. Some get more screen time than others, such as Memphis Bleek. The guests are always game, even, if only for a verse. Jay-Z's performance on stage is nothing short of adrenaline pumping. One of the best concert films I've ever seen. The first is Jay's last concert at Madison Square Garden promoting his latest and last album, 'The Black Album.' The second film is recording sessions that go behind Jay'Z's making of said album. Jay-Z's 'Fade to Black' is two movies in one. When 'Reasonable Doubt' was released, it was an instant classic by one of the best rappers of all time.
