Sixteen-year-old Bri wants to be one of the greatest rappers of all time. Or at least win her first battle. As the daughter of an underground hip hop legend who died right before he hit big, Bri\u2019s got massive shoes to fill. But it\u2019s hard to get your come up when you\u2019re labeled a hoodlum at school, and your fridge at home is empty after your mom loses her job. So Bri pours her anger and frustration into her first song, which goes viral . . . for all the wrong reasons.<\/p>\n

Bri soon finds herself at the center of a controversy, portrayed by the media as more menace than MC. But with an eviction notice staring her family down, Bri doesn\u2019t just want to make it\u2014she has to. Even if it means becoming the very thing the public has made her out to be.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\t\t
