A talented young hip-hop performer becomes the vehicle for her father's unfulfilled ambitions in this feature documentary. A struggling father and former rapper, Jesse Diaz works hard to support his family as a single dad. He regains custody of his two daughters after incarceration and finds himself broke, unemployed and living in temporary housing. He pins his hopes for the family's fortunes on his youngest daughter, Priscilla a.k.a. P-Star. Recognizing Priscilla's natural musical talent and precocious personality, Jesse sets out to make his 9-year-old daughter the next rap phenomenon 'the youngest girl on the scene.'
