Roxanne Roxanne

The historical fiction account of Roxanne Shante, one of the first hip-hop female rappers from NY in the 1980's. She was only 14 yrs old coming up, and being both adult performer and kid figuring out a new genre was difficult to say the least. This film version is interesting, and informative, but not super engaging. I was hoping for something more like 8-mile with more music and battle, less biopic.
2 stars (out of 5)
