"Pick Up The Mic is the definitive film about the world of queer hip-hop. Shot over a three-year period in San Francisco, New York, Chicago, Minneapolis, Houston, and even the Ozarks, the film captures the birth of the "homohop" movement and chronicles its growth into a global community of our artists that has emerged and thrived despite improbable odds. More than a dozen LGBT rappers expose their lives and take to the stage in searing and triumphant performances that challenge the traditionally homophobic world of hip-hop. Many of these performers meet and collaborate for the very first time as we follow their journeys. Pick Up The Mic is a story about family, support, and true evolution."--Container.
