CB4 background

CB4

In this comedy film, a filmmaker sets out to create a documentary about the rap group CB4, which rose to fame by emulating the style and image of a rival group, Gusto. However, Gusto's lead singer is hell-bent on taking down CB4 and exacting revenge for their theft of his identity.

The movie is a satirical "rapumentary" that chronicles the meteoric rise of the rap trio CB4, comprised of MC Gusto, Stab Master Arson, and Dead Mike. However, beneath their façade of rap stardom, the group's members lack genuine musical talent, yet their popularity soars despite this shortcoming. The film pokes fun at the music industry's tendency to prioritize image over substance, as the group's lack of skills is compensated by their convincing performances.
