The New York Post and the New York Daily News both report that Jadakiss, Ashanti and Treach of Naughty By Nature will star alongside former Sopranos star Michael Imperioli in You’re Nobody ’til Somebody Kills You. The film is a murder drama with a Hip-Hop fueled plot based in New York. Spike Lee’s longtime assistant director, Michael “Boogie” Pinckney will direct the film under his Blackfoot Films imprint and Lee will serve as executive producer. Sonae Ryder will also make an appearance–those who frequent HipHopDX will remember her being featured here in July.
The film reportedly finished shooting in May. Pinckney’s former credits include work on The Huey P. Newton Story, Inside Man, Bamboozled and The 25th Hour. Although no date has been scheduled for the film’s release yet, a brief trailer is included below.
