Trick Daddy - Straight From The Projects (2008 Documentary)

Hang with Trick Daddy at project parties and see his old neighborhood through his eyes! Straight from the Projects is a series about rappers returning to the gritty streets where they grew up. Rappers show you where it all went down in their hoods - from day one. You'll visit the legendary places that inspired the music and you'll understand what the lyrics are all about. No sugar-coating, no Hollywood sets, no scripts, just the real on-the-streets action as it unfolds with one hand-held camera capturing the guns, drugs, and violence that are part of everyday life. Trick Daddy's music is all about where he grew up: in the pork and beans projects, one of the toughest projects in Miami. This is the flip-side of the Big Easy... not Miami Beach, not South Beach, just the mean streets where poverty, drug abuse, and violence are epidemic. See his neighborhood uncensored: talking with his pops... lifestyle of thugs... as well as the warmth and love so vital to the neighborhood's survival and its hope for the future. You'll also be hanging out with Trick Daddy going to project parties at the local night-club that inspired his music videos. Seeing the neighborhood through Trick Daddy's eyes following in his footsteps is the only way to know the truth in his music.
