Gifted young rapper Nico Jones navigates ambition, identity, and the dangerous pull of his surroundings. Told across two timelines, the story begins in South Central Los Angeles, where Nico’s early creative promise is shaped by family loss, a fractured home life, and the looming influence of local street figures.
