Synopsis by Tracie Cooper

King of the Streets revolves around the fascinating world of urban marketing. Each night, a variety of "street teams" travel different neighborhoods in order to distribute flyers and posters, which they hope will help promote the hip-hop industry. Filmmaker Anthony Quinn takes an in-depth look at the people behind these concentrated efforts and reveals a surprising, behind-the-scenes take on the amount of work and types of campaigning required for this unique operation.
