Overview

""You can be whatever you want to be."" In school, it's the first lie teachers tell. Maybe it's true elsewhere in America, but not in Philly. Here, ""making it out"" means surviving another 24 hours. There's no alternate route, just harsh reality. Jalen learns this firsthand. A recent, terrible family tragedy shatters his world, leaving him confused and lost on Philly's cold-hearted streets. He finds an unlikely comfort with Cassius, Moe, Rolex, and Reese, notorious figures in the neighborhood who take him in. They teach him the brutal rules of street survival. But Jalen has a secret weapon: a raw talent for singing, a fact he's only beginning to realize-and maybe too late. At a karaoke night, Kenny, a washed-up music manager, hears Jalen's voice. He sees a chance for both of them and desperately tries to convince Jalen to pursue music. At a crossroads of death, destruction, and destiny, find out how Jalen plays the hand he's been dealt. Can he defy the odds? Because we all know: ""Tha Streetz Ain't 4 Errbody!""
