Synopsis

Player Hating: A Love Story focuses on Half-a-Mill who is a young hip hop artist from the Albany Housing Projects in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. By the time he was seven, Half was sharing a gun with his brother, ‘cause he was sick of adult men putting guns in his face and not being able to defend himself. Half’s been running with the same ten guys his whole life, and they’re his crew, but he’s the one with real musical talent. He’s the one that will take all of them all out of the projects.


Player Hating: A Love Story follows Half and his crew as they write, perform and launch Half’s first album, “Milion” in a heroic bid for fame and wealth. Delving intimately into “thug life”, Player Hating takes the audience into the underground world of hip hop music, poverty, gangs and murder. Player Hating A Love Story Watch trailer.
