The film is a story of lifelong friends, A&R Andre and Editor-in-Chief Sidney. The two can attribute their friendship and the launch of their careers to a single, seminal childhood moment – the day they discovered hip-hop on a New York street corner. Now some 15 years later, as they lay down the tracks toward their futures, hip-hop isn't the only thing that keeps them coming back to that moment on the corner. ## Credits - **Director:** [Rick Famuyiwa](https://cinepixo.com/people/rick-famuyiwa) - **Original Music Composer:** [Robert Hurst](https://cinepixo.com/people/robert-hurst) - **Producer:** [Magic Johnson](https://cinepixo.com/people/magic-johnson) - **Director of Photography:** [Enrique Chediak](https://cinepixo.com/people/enrique-chediak) ## Cast - [Nicole Ari Parker](https://cinepixo.com/people/nicole-ari-parker) - [Taye Diggs](https://cinepixo.com/people/taye-diggs) - [Wendell Pierce](https://cinepixo.com/people/wendell-pierce) - [Yasiin Bey](https://cinepixo.com/people/yasiin-bey) - [Sanaa Lathan](https://cinepixo.com/people/sanaa-lathan) - [Queen Latifah](https://cinepixo.com/people/queen-latifah) - [Boris Kodjoe](https://cinepixo.com/people/boris-kodjoe) - [Marc John Jefferies](https://cinepixo.com/people/marc-john-jefferies) - [Erik Weiner](https://cinepixo.com/people/erik-weiner) - [Venida Evans](https://cinepixo.com/people/venida-evans) - [Liza Lapira](https://cinepixo.com/people/liza-lapira) - [Wyking Jones](https://cinepixo.com/people/wyking-jones) ## Criticism on CinePixo No reviews published yet.
