Plot:

Danielle (Dani) Bolton, an upper-class Brooklyn girl, defies her parents in order to attend a college in Atlanta so she can join, and revitalize, their once-prominent drumline. Dani's quest to become the first female section leader of the drumline in the school's history will be hampered by upperclassmen (including her cousin Tyree), her feelings for bandmate and rival Jayven, and the school's crosstown rivals.
