Details

Erik is a hip-hop-lovin' teen living in Philadelphia who'd rather spend time listening to his idol, the rapper Prolifik. One day, Erik finds himself more entangled in Prolifik's life than he ever imagined possible: Prolifik's been kidnapped, his master tapes are gone, and, through a series of twisted events, the same people who are after the musician go after Erik, too.

The best film about the rap-music industry IMO. But it's about so much more than that, it's part mystery, part coming of age drama, part gangster flick, part suspense. With a truly likeable lead actor (which can be rare in these sort of films). A shame that more people haven't seen it, one of ... the best hoodflicks made... Prefer it over both Boyz N The Hood and Belly.
