Blue (Tyler Abron) is a singer who was once in the band Charm with Krystal (Joslyn Y Hall) and Jasmine (Zing Ashford), but has gone solo. However, she’s already having issues as she’s being stalked. Before you can say Whitney and Costner, she’s being protected by Raymond (Jibre Hordges) and starts to fall in love with him. But is he everything that she thinks he is?

Directed by Jaira Thomas (Played and Betrayed) and written by Yvette Wren, this also has a former boyfriend named Tripp (Jaylin Randolph) — the man who once introduced her to the business — insulting Blue and trying to ruin her. Her security sucks, by the way. It’s all her family and friends — sister Brianna (Kajuana S. Marie), stage mom Deborah (Bonita Brisker) and head of security brother Antwan (Kai Malik) — protecting her up until now. They think she’s changed, but maybe they don’t know the pressure that she’s under.

Then again, Blue is singing a new track called “Survivor” in a world where Destiny’s Child already had one with almost the same lyrics. Also: So much lip synching.

Blue is a tough heroine to get to love. She’s rude to almost everyone but can be nice out of nowhere. When Raymond ends up nearly killing a dude in the bar who wants her to sing, she starts to take to him just as her whole family begins to go crazy. Her sister is trying to speak the truth to her, but her mom is full Kris Jenner, filming her all the time. Then someone starts posting her new songs before she can release them, Tripp is posting pictures in bed with Krystal, the momager starts doing backdoor deals, Antwan dies eating a piece of poisoned cake…is this becoming Black Giallo? Yes, it is, with all the red herrings, murders — beyond cake, there’s someone pushed off a building — and how many people could be conspiring against Blue, from the sister who wants her own life to the ex-boyfriend who wants her back and the bodyguard who already lost one client because of how he took over her life.

You could make a double feature of this and Trap and somehow realize this is better.

You can watch this on Tubi.
