The idea of finding your place in the world and "working your shit out", so to speak. Janet Jackson proves herself in the poetry she writes and the prose she speaks. She shows her true colors by letting us into her mind.

Tupac Shakur makes the effort to hide his emotions in the beginning, but lets it all out and shines brighter than the Sun.

Regina King's character shows her vice and how it affects her best friend. Relationships end between Regina and Joe Torry's characters revealing egos and Shakur leaves his friend behind when events turn towards the worst.

The soundtrack also utilizes their behavior towards one another, explaining reasons as to why they travel such long distances for a dream of possibilities and how they deal with their own problems.

John Singleton proves yet another story for the coming-of-age and explains in detail how the road trip opened and closed barriers within love and friendship. A truly wonderful tale for all those looking for answers to life's tough questions.
