Summary
"Sixteen-year-old Bri wants to be one of the greatest rappers of all time. Or at least win the first battle. As the daughter of an underground hip-hop legend who died right before she hit big, Bris got massive shoes to fill. But it's hard to get your come up when you're labeled a hoodlum at school and your fridge at home is empty after your mom loses her job. So Bri pours her anger and frustration into her first song, which goes viral for all the wrong reasons. Bri soon finds herself at the center of a controversy, portrayed by the media as more menace than MC. But with an eviction notice staring her family doesn't, Bri doesn't just want to make it--she has to. Even if it means becoming the very thing the public has made her out to be"--Container cover
