The Shuffle

THE SHUFFLE chronicles the making of the 1985 Chicago Bears' iconic rap music video that became a cultural phenomenon enroute to the team's storied Super Bowl XX championship. Featuring rare behind-the-scenes footage and new interviews with the star players who performed the song, the film explores the conception, execution, and impact of the GRAMMY(R)-nominated track that energized the city of Chicago and football fans everywhere 40 years ago. Conceived by the Chicago-based record label executive Dick Meyer of Red Label Records, the song sparked debate over swagger versus superstition, as it was recorded weeks before the Bears had officially secured their spot in the Super Bowl. Ultimately, it was the bravado of the legendary team and everyone involved in the making of the hit song that marked a major turning point in the relationship between sports, music, and pop culture.
