About this movie

The story follows 16-year-old Cyrus DeBarge, an aspiring musician who has a gift for rhyme yet lacks the self-confidence to take the stage and, through his rap song, tell his longtime crush Roxanne Andrews how he feels about her. After he and his flighty best friend, Kris McDuffy enter a songwriting contest, Kris is mistakenly named the winner for a song Cyrus wrote. Fearful of being thrust into the spotlight, Cyrus panics and allows Kris to take credit for his heartfelt lyrics and soon he's standing by as Roxanne begins to fall for Kris.

This movie was great ( has catchy songs, which are great, too) but forgettable. All movies are forgettable, well, not The Hunger Games, so I am giving this four stars. Great job with the movie anyway!

I love seeing the movie with all the singing and raping of the Hip-Hop, R&B, and Gospel. I miss watching this on Disney Channel years ago
