In the late 80s/ early 1990s, the most feared battle MC in Queens, New York, was a fierce teenage girl with the weight of the world on her shoulders. At the age of 14, Lolita “Roxanne Shanté” Gooden was well on her way to becoming a hip-hop legend as she hustled to provide for her family while defending herself from the dangers of the streets of the Queensbridge Projects in NYC.

“Much better than most hiphop movies previously made, with a bit more depth and budget I would have gone to the cinema to see this.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHopefully there will be more movies of this type as there some great stories to tell about the golden era of hiphop and plenty of fans.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGood acting and casting and held my attention throughout which is a rarity nowadays for tv output. Way better acted and far more authentic than The Getdown.”
