FILM SCHOOL GRAD ENTERS THE WORLD OF RAP MUSIC - When film school graduate Leta (Melissa De Sousa, "Miss Congeniality") accepts a job as an assistant to a big-time rap video director, she doesn't know the job description includes chaperoning a bus full of wanna-be rap stars from Harlem to Miami. Leta soon finds an ally in Poppa (Malik Yoba, "Soul Food"), an old friend of the music producer who wants to start a program for youth in the inner city. En route to the gig, there are breakdowns, bickering, impromptu jam sessions and barroom fights, but the group ultimately forms a strong bond. John Witherspoon, Fredro Starr and Cedric the Entertainer also star. The film was written and directed by Millicent Shelton.
