Young rapper Courtney Rose (Brandon Micheal Hall) needs his big break. For years, he’s toiled away in a small inner-city apartment, making music in his junk-filled bedroom closet.
Tired of waiting for an opportunity, Courtney cooks up the publicity stunt of the century: Running for mayor of his hometown in California to generate buzz for his music career. Unfortunately for Courtney, his master plan goes wildly awry, ending in the most terrifying of outcomes: An election victory.
With the help of his mother (Yvette Nicole Brown, “Community“) and friends, including Valentina (“Glee’s” Lea Michele), Courtney will have to overcome his hubris if he wants to transform the struggling city he loves.
The Mayor Stars:
- Bernard Jones as Jermaine Hardaway
- Brandon Micheal Hall as Courtney Rose
- Lea Michele as Valentina “Val” Flores
- Marcel Spears as TK
- Yvette Nicole Brown as Dina
