Having been a mainstay of the UK hip-hop MC 'battle' scene (think '8 Mile') and an undefeated champion, REVEAL is transforming. He has always held within himself two conflicting identities, British and Iranian, now he his fusing his UK hip hop style with Persian rhythms, and has teamed up with the top Iranian hip hop artists to create a new sound that has helped to kick-start the burgeoning but underground Iranian hip hop movement known as '0-21' which refers to the Tehran phone code.

Both guys are awesome...REVEAL reminds me of a more conscious and lighter Big Pun...watch his other video "What Estate You From" and see what I mean.

I'm impressed again with the fine documentary style of Mr. Jewel, who once again informs and inspires, opening a window we didn't even know was there...nice.

this is a really great piece, there is so much richness to these sort of hybrid cultures which allow young people like Reveal to express their position in the world
well done filmmakers and rappers

It's great to see how Hip Hop is universal and felt by all regardless of their race background and culture. I enjoyed having an insight into someone else's struggle. The pod was amazing
