Paper Chasers is a depiction of the far-flung Hip hop scene, featuring such well-known artists as James Brown, Chuck D., Flavor Flav, Master P., Chris Bridges, and Russell Simmons. The title of the film it is derived from hip-hop terminology for an individual who is pursuing a lucrative goal or career, where paper money would be the reward for great effort.

The film, which contains the original music score and title theme song "Paper Chase" by writer/composer Angel Red, granddaughter of Master alto saxophonist and orchestra leader, Johnny Hodges.
