In this movie based on the life of Russell Simmons, hot young record producer/manager Russell Walker has all the hottest acts on the record label Krush Groove Records. The acts include Run-DMC, Dr.Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and Kurtis Blow.
When Run-DMC has a hit record and Russell doesn’t have the money to press records, he borrows money from a drug dealer/loan shark. At the same time, Russell and Run are both competing for the heart of Sheila E.
