Synopsis – What to Expect from “Roxanne Roxanne”
Roxanne Roxanne is a 2017 biographical drama film directed by Michael Larnell and starring Chanté Adams, Mahershala Ali, Nia Long, and Elvis Nolasco.
The film tells the story of the real-life hip hop artist Roxanne Shanté, who rose to fame in the 1980s as a battle rapper. Born Lolita Shanté Gooden in the Queensbridge Projects of New York City, she was just 14 years old when she released her first single, “Roxanne’s Revenge,” which became an underground hit.
The film follows Roxanne’s rise to fame as she navigates the male-dominated hip hop scene of the 1980s. Despite her success, she struggles to balance her career with her personal life, dealing with poverty, an abusive relationship, and a teenage pregnancy. With the help of her mother, she perseveres and eventually becomes the first female rap artist to be signed to a major label.
Roxanne Roxanne is an inspiring story of a young woman’s determination to overcome the odds and find success in a male-dominated industry. It showcases the power of female resilience and the importance of family and community.
