All of New York is their stage when the Big Apple's hottest hip hoppers ignite in this uplifting story of teenagers who dream of making it in the recording business. A musical love story with fabulous songs and flashy dance sequences. Breakdancing, rapping, graffiti art, and DJ scratching are the driving beat!

Steve and Wardell sneak out of their houses to visit an illegal nightclub. During their visit they are robbed of their wallets. When Steve's wallet turns out to have contained a winning lottery ticket they set out to find the crooks.

Sidney Poitier ('Guess Who's Coming to Dinner,' 'Sneakers') directs and stars with the legendary Bill Cosby and Richard Pryor and an all-star cast in this hilariously broad comedy about two pals who try to retrieve a stolen winning lottery ticket, and become involved with an underworld kingpin. Spawned two hit sequels: 'Let's Do it Again' and 'A Piece of the Action.'

An aspiring DJ, from the South Bronx, and his best friend, a promoter, try to get into show business by exposing people to hip-hop music and culture.
