Rapper SKG and West Coast icon Cold 187um made a notable appearance at the Pomona premiere of Higher Power, the newest Chicano drama directed by Anthony “Cisco” Viramontes. The film’s debut drew major attention, with many attendees calling it a powerful new entry in modern Chicano storytelling.
The cast features an impressive lineup, including Cold 187um, Omar Gooding, Mr. Homicide, Pete Vásquez, Angel Salazar, and Panchito Gómez. With actors tied to classics like Blood In Blood Out, Mi Vida Loca, Scarface, Colors, and American Me, the movie blends legacy talent with a gripping narrative centered on loyalty, struggle, and redemption.
SKG (Helecia Choyce) attended in support of Cold 187um—her former Death Row Records label mate. The two artists walked the red carpet together, celebrating both the film’s release and their longtime connection within West Coast hip-hop culture.
