Struggling musicians vie for success in the hard world of the New York hip-hop scene in this grittyurban drama. Rich (Jeffrey D. Sams) is convinced he has a future as a rapper – so much so that he leaves his wife and family to go to New York and reach for the brass ring. While scuffling for work, Rich meets another MC, I Tick (Ron Brice), whose roughneck style is a contrast to Rich's smooth delivery. The two rhymers begin working together and soon find that they may have a shot at the big time. (Sony Pictures Home Entertainment)
