The story

Rising East Coast rap star Jaxx has formed a musical partnership with longtime buddy Mayhem. Domino Breed, a ruthless CEO of Da Block Records, a West Coast label, is filling Jaxx's head with promises of solo stardom and innumerable creature comforts (not all of them legal), Domino lures the young performer to California. As he becomes immersed in the gangster lifestyle common to so many of Domino's disciples, Jaxx grows distant from his friends and loved ones, especially his wife Shonda, who had originally been in favor of her husband's career move.
