For three burgeoning filmmakers looking to put their city on the colossal map that is hip-hop, there’s no time like the present to pinpoint their hometown as a region that will be justly known for its booming musical landscape in the near future.

As the city emerges in musical circles with its signature club music–with artists such as Kanye West and Swizz Beats integrating the sound made famous by B-More icons DJ Equalizer, DJ Class and the late DJ K Swift–these three filmmakers look to build off of this momentum as they present each eclectic musical palette that their city has to offer.
