The focus of the game is to get your graffiti plastered all over each and every area you come across. This game is about Trane, a man who loves to draw graffiti (graf for the cool kids), but is suffering in New Radius, a fictitious city overrun with cops and other law enforcers eager to get people like him off the streets. Trane is portrayed by musician Talib Kweli rap artists such as Sean "Diddy" Combs, Michael "MC Serch" Berrin, and The RZA, as well as veteran actors George Hamilton and Adam West (among others), also provide voice acting. The characters and storyline of Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure are said to be the culmination of over seven years of planning by title project lead Marc Ecko, whose "Rhino" brand of urban attire helped propel him to the heights of the fashion world in the early '90s.

Set in the fictional city of New Radius, the game pits Trane against an overbearing, repressive government, and the hero must use stealth, street fighting, and spraycan style to assert his idealistic presence. In the role of a thoughtful urban rebel named Trane, players tag their way to greatness in this graffiti culture action-adventure.
