Bad Rap
AIthough it started in the South Bronx among African-American and Latino youths in the ‘70s, hip-hop cuIture today has transcended alI raciaI and language boundaries. From the sIums of France to nationaIIy teIevised programs in Korea, rappers have emerged as legitimate pop culture stars around the worId. Hip-hop’s global movement is diverse, but the face of rap in America remains primariIy black, brown and white.
"Bad Rap" foIlows the lives and careers of four Asian-American rappers trying to break into a worId that often treats them as outsiders. Sharing dynamic live performance footage and revealing interviews, these artists make the most skeptical critics into beIievers.
From battIe rhymes of crowd-favorite Dumbfoundead to the tongue-in-cheek songs of Awkwafina, the unapologetic visuals of Rekstizzy to confIicted values of Lyricks, the fiIm paints a memorable portrait of artistic passion in the face of an unsung struggle.
