Movie Info

An ambitious white reporter, David Katz (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), gets an assignment covering rappers Damon Dash (Capone) and Jay-Z (Robert Stapleton), during which he tries to insinuate himself into the hip-hop world. When he overhears an executive telling Damon that his career at record label Roc-A-Fella is done, David is the first to report it, which gains him notoriety and his own column at a leading hip-hop magazine. Unfortunately, he also ignites a bitter feud between Damon and Jay-Z.
