    • An ambitious group of New York City teens navigate America’s ultimate concrete jungle to form one of music’s most groundbreaking crews, pioneering a new sound in the process. From their ascension above the pitfalls of the drug-filled 80s and the ultra-violent 90s to their premature fade into obscurity, the music collective known as the Native Tongues must endure a series of life lessons amidst a generational culture shift that threatens to erase the legacy of their impact.
