Player HatingHalf-a-Mill is a 26 year old hip hop artist from the Albany Projects in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. By the time he was seven, Half was sharing a gun with his brother, ‘cause he was sick of people putting their guns in his face in the elevator of his building, and not being able to do anything about it. Player Hating is about Half and his NY crew, the Godfia Criminals, as they struggle to escape poverty and violence through music in the Albany Housing Projects. In raw, uncensored form, Player Hating delves intimately into the lives of young "thugs,” and reveals the core of human poverty.Released: April 6, 2012 Running Time: 97 minMPAA rating: UnratedDirector: Maggie Hadleigh-WestGenres: Musical, Docudrama
