VH1's original movie The Breaks doesn't air for another month, but right now, we're giving you a sneak peek of the movie and a chance to get to know its cast!

Set in New York City in the summer of 1990, The Breaks follows three friends who share a love for hip-hop. Nikki (Afton Williamson), David (David Call) and DeeVee (Mack Wilds) dream of making it big in the music industry, and they ultimately make it their mission to do so.
