Dudley Perkins “Interplanetary Peace Talks 2012 A.U.” (Documentary)

Beats Hip-Hop

I like watching documentaries, especially about music. And last night, I watched the wonderful documentary about Declaime aka Dudley Perkins. I learnt a lot about the life of this artist and his vision. The duo of filmmakers A.J. Calomay and Paul Dang filmed Dudley from 2003 to 2008 and you can see the evolution of the artist and the man in his actions and his music.

INTERPLANETARY PEACE TALKS (2012 A.U.)
A Documentary about Rapper, Vocalist, and Prophet?: Dudley Perkins AKA Declaime

After producing and directing a documentary on rapper Wildchild of The Lootpack in 2003, “Wild ‘N You” (youtube.com/watch?v=YAu98z_3E2g), filmmakers A.J. Calomay and Paul Dang began shooting their next project that same year. The subject: the enigmatic Dudley Perkins aka Declaime. The process was not what they expected.

Vegas, Spaghetti, Smoke, Bugs, Beer, Amoebas, Sunlight, Darkness, Pogo Sticks. This is not your average hip hop documentary.

Experience what the filmmakers saw through their time spent with Dudley, from 2003 to 2008. Artist, singer, father, preacher, poet, partner, rapper, friend, and enigma. Why take so long for this film to be released? Because Dudley can show us the path to love and life in 2012 and beyond.
