A new rapper named SOD (Pooch Hall) is finally starting to gain recognition and fame. During an awards show after his celebration party, he is confronted by Clara (Lin Shaye), a mysterious woman who stops time and is revealed to be another Hound of Hell. She shows him videos from his up-and-coming days: from when he first met Quon, (Aries Spears) another up an coming MC to Quon's last day when he was gunned down in a liquor store by a masked burglar. On the first day he met Quon SOD promised God he would change and do better if he was given a chance with his music.
Quon was always acting as a big brother, defending SOD when his ego got out of line demanding ridiculous outfits, jewelry or expensive sets for his music videos. Tired of his attitude Quon was offered a solo career by their Record Dealer (Jason Alexander) after SOD's behavior becomes too out of control including having a rape charge from having sex with a minor he let trick him into believing she was an adult. Quon refused however and stayed with SOD believing he would change.
Clara tells SOD Quon had a chance to focus on the music like they both promised to do and have a life of his own but stood by his side giving it up all up. Because of that and breaking his promise to God SOD’s punishment would only get worse.
When SOD denies having anything to do with Quon’s death to Clara her eyes than give off the glow of an H.O.H like Devon and the Derelict signaling she was about to unleash SOD’s punishment on him. Quon enters the room back from the dead as a zombie with Clara taking her leave. Quon knows it was really SOD and SOD's manager Jersey (Diamond Dallas Page) who were behind his death. Quon reveals to SOD how he was wearing a bulletproof vest as well as Jersey being the gunman in order for SOD to finally be free of him and gain all the fame for himself. Quon then brutally kills Jersey and frames SOD with SOD’s groupies walking in seeing the dead Jersey believing SOD did it. SOD, now knowing with the cops coming his life and career are over tells Quon he doesn’t regret what he did to him and would do it all over again, he is then gunned down by the police during a shootout where he dies in a elevator.
