    Bobbito has been like a north star for authenticity, heart, and the creative/innovative spirit I associate with hip-hop culture. This documentary beautifully captures all those things, from humanitarian work in South Africa, to the joyous Wonder-Full parties, his life has built and celebrated the communities I'm proud to be a part of. Enjoy the rare and never-before-seen footage of streetball legends, along with highlights from his time playing basketball professionally in Puerto Rico. And if you're looking for inspiration or encouragement, his story and message serve that up lovely. This is a gem and I recommend watching and sharing with anyone that has any connection to hip-hop culture, New York, streetball, basketball, sneakers, DJ'ing, radio, Puerto Rico - or you know what, share it even if they don't. It's that great. Salute!
  • Brought me back to why I love this culture..

Which I credited BoB for being courageously brave. The BBalls sack story was hilariously funny. I was rolling. I recommend everyone to see this film. You will find yourself in any of these circumstances! Don’t Sleep Go and Check it! PeAce! RoCcA! 2018

    It's always moving to see a story of the American underdog, their struggle and journey to how they achieved their dreams. Garcia typifies this in "Rock Rubber 45s". In the struggle of growing-up through rejection, abuse, and bullying, he immersed himself into his passions: music and basketball. We see how Garcia's mind just continues to churn and he creates ideas from this. Big deal, we call create ideas. Bobbitto actually pursues on a Global level and reaches every type of people. Unlike most triumphant stories that I noticed is, the funny unspoken theme is NEVER about money. It was a heartfelt, funny, moving, tearful documentary for everyone. I had my wife and parents watch it.

    If you haven't watched his first two documentaries, "Doin' It The Park" and "Stretch and Bobbito: Radio That Changed Lives", you're sleepin. But it's not too late. Cop this and learn something about the guy behind all the things you love. I've been a fan for years and this film is a heartwarming, tear jerking, painfully truthful, funny, and just overall fantastic look into what make Bob Bob. 10/10 all day. Then go buy the other 2 films and support.
