The Five Heartbeats are a nineteen-sixties Motown-era singing group, made up of lead singer Eddie (Michael Wright), songwriter 'Duck' Matthews (Robert Townsend), ladies' man J.T. Matthews (Leon), bassman 'Dresser' Williams (Harry J. Lennix), and tenor 'Choirboy' Stone (Tico Wells). When the group catches the eye of manager Jimmy Potter (Chuck Patterson), who helps them launch a hit single, their fortunes take a turn for the better. The group improve, turn pro, and rise to become a top flight music sensation.
But success has its price - internal conflict, drug addiction, infidelity, racism threaten to destroy the integrity of the band.
