Now, for the first time, the true story behind these sensational cases is uncovered in Murder Rap. This is the riveting account of the task force that finally exposed the shocking truth behind the death of these two rap music icons.

Producer/Director Mike Dorsey says: “I have long been a student of both Hollywood history and true crime, and I am fascinated when the two intersect. The film is an unprecedented inside look at the investigation into a pair of high-profile celebrity murders, loaded with 50 police documents, 10 taped witness interviews, and dozens of photos and videos from the case files.”
