Synopsis: The hip hop generation has embraced entrepreneurship with a passion! Whether selling T-shirts at local swap meets or running multi-million dollar multimedia corporations, these paper chasers... The hip hop generation has embraced entrepreneurship with a passion! Whether selling T-shirts at local swap meets or running multi-million dollar multimedia corporations, these paper chasers recognize that success comes to those who handle their business. For some it's about independence. For others it's about power. But always· it's about the paper.

Paper Chasers is a feature length documentary about the impact of hip hop entrepreneurs who have built successful businesses in music, film, fashion, TV, print media, and now the Internet. Filmmaker/entrepreneur Maxie Collier (aka Son #1) and his production team travel the country in an RV, documenting the ambitions, successes, and failures of paper chasers at all levels of the gameś everyone from hungry upstarts to successful old school veterans.

The film combines these interviews with behind-the-scenes footage as Collier struggles to hold his team together through the rigors of their ambitious low budget production. The end result promises to be an insightful documentary filled with unpredictable moments and an incredible soundtrack. -- © Next Wave Films [More]

Fans of the artistry of hip-hop music will find a whole lot to enjoy here, as Collier clearly has a lot of respect for his subject material.
