The uncut rise and fall of the group behind the best-selling 12 inch single "Rumors!"

In the summer of 1986, "Rumors/Vicious Rumors" by Timex Social Club dominated radio airwaves. Their song also topped Billboard magazine's urban charts, garnishing the number one position respectively for hot black singles, hot dance club play, and 12-inch sales.

How Do Rumors Get Started is a powerful, edgy, and amusing look behind the scenes of the rap music industry in the mid-80's.
