The story of three emcees from the Midwest, who formed as a tribe and set out on a quest. Leaving their loved ones and hometowns behind, while seeking for success, so blessed and ended up in a city where winters are harsh and the people are on the go. There they sharpened their skills, hustled to pay bills, and tightened up their flow. They wrote the words to shape their fate, living in a state surrounded by Great Lakes: in divine time, their paths intertwined, turnpikes and freeways lead them to find. A love that they shared for hip-hop combined, a powerful thread rooted in rhyme.
