Director: Kevin Savo

Cast: Kevin Savo, Positive K, Professor Griff, Dante Stallone, R.A. the Rugged Man

In a high-stakes collision of old-school soul and new-age fire, *The Headliner* delivers a sweeping, multi-generational saga on the rise, rip-off, and resilience of hip-hop. When a mythic, hermit-like beatmaker from the genre’s legendary golden age is dragged back into the spotlight, he’s paired with a raw, razor-sharp street poet whose talent outshines her discipline. Sparks fly as their creative visions war—one fighting for the purity of the craft, the other for the hunger of the moment—until a common enemy forces them to merge forces. Together, they must dismantle a corporate machine that would commodify their culture, proving that the heartbeat of the streets can’t be bought, broken, or silenced.
