With the rapid Latino population growth on the West Coast, Hip-Hop was bound to find a new groove.

The film shows their everyday lives, the struggles they go through, and how Hip-Hop has given them an outlet to speak out and represent their growing culture.
The film has already gained attention in publications such as RealTalk LA with a featured article entitled, "Delivering Messages Through Hip-Hop", as well as over the Internet amongst the many fans of the featured artist.
