PLOT:
Dolemite is a pimp, comedian, and nightclub owner who is serving twenty years in prison after being set up by a rival, Willie Green, and framed by detectives Mitchell and White, at the direction of the mayor. Released by the governor (thanks to lobbying by fellow pimp "Queen Bee"), Dolemite is freed in order to discover the source of the out-of-control drug problem in the "Fourth Ward" of the city and take revenge on the corruption that put him in prison. He rekindles his reputation on the streets, while trying to get back his "Total Experience" club from the hands of Willie Green. He enlists the help of Queen Bee, and his stable of kung fu trained prostitutes to settle the score, while an undercover FBI agent lurks in the shadows overlooking the proceedings.
