Serving a life sentence for murder, music prodigy Ike White had plenty of time to perfect his musical talent. Ike's skills were so exceptional that his story captured the media's attention and he was able to record an album inside the prison. With an acclaimed album under his belt and the support of Stevie Wonder, Ike was poised for stardom. But, instead, he went off the grid for over 40 years.
