The film opens with pageantry pimp Baron (John Daniels) driving his customised two tone red and yellow Rolls Royce around down town - night time L.A. His ladies have been coming up short lately and he wants to know why. Turns out that two L.A.P.D. cops - Dempsey and Gordon (who have been after Baron for some time now) have resorted to rousting his girls every chance they get. Indeed in the next scene they have set Baron up with a copper in drag to entrap him with procurement of prostitutes. Of course the Baron is wise to their ploy and ends up grabbin the ecopper by the short and curlies. (official distributor synopsis)

Blaxploitation films are a peculiar genre, but often they work, as is the case with The Candy Tangerine Man, which I enjoyed. It's pleasantly flashy, with plenty of attractive women, many of them scantily clad. The action scenes aren't great, but they're not terrible either; this is just the blaxploitation as I imagine it.
