Film Description



Philadelphia is often referred to as the mecca for American soul music, however its contributions have been overlooked despite its mass proliferation of artists, many of whom have made landmark contributions as emcees, graffiti artists, dancers, and most notable as deejays.

In this debut featurette, director and producer Maori Karmael Holmes seeks to tell the story of these women—the legends, the famed, and the ingénues—as they struggle to succeed in a male-dominated industry in a city that has been left behind in the national consciousness.
