Now, Sing and his right-hand man, Kai (RUSSELL WONG), control a powerful Asian crime family that's hostile to the local African-American crime family run by Isaak O'Day (DELROY LINDO). Although Isaak eventually wants to get into a legitimate business with his son, Colin (D.B. WOODSIDE), and an ambitious businessman, Roth (EDOARDO BALLERINI), he must first contend with allegations that his people were responsible for Po's death.
Thus, his right-hand man, Mac (ISAIAH WASHINGTON), is put on notice, as is Maurice (ANTHONY ANDERSON), a portly and bumbling fellow assigned to protect Isaak's adult and very independent daughter, Trish (AALIYAH), who wants nothing to do with her father's illegal business activities.
With Han arriving in the U.S. and repeatedly running into Trish, and more members of each crime family being murdered, the two young members of the opposing families try to figure out what's going on and determine exactly who's responsible.
Profanity consists of at least 9 "f" words (perhaps more since many of the rap songs' lyrics could not be understood), while other profanities and colorful phrases are also uttered. Most of the characters belong to crime families and thus have bad attitudes (especially the ones who double-cross their own people).
A woman's bare breast is briefly seen as two women do a sensual dance and part of a man's bare butt is seen after he loses his belt and his pants fall down. Beyond that, there's some smoking and drinking, along with some brief drug use.
