INT. MUSIC SHOP – DAY KangoBlood, a charismatic music producer, and JonnieWidecock, a skilled rapper, are discussing their latest project in KangoBlood’s music shop. JONNIEWIDECOCK: I don’t know, man. It’s like the more we try to make a name for ourselves, the harder it gets. KANGOBLOOD: That’s because we’re going up against the top industry. They don’t want us to succeed. HoneyByte, KangoBlood’s business partner, walks in with a worried look on her face. HONEYBYTE: Guys, we have a problem. KANGOBLOOD: What’s going on? HONEYBYTE: Dealerskip and Dealer K are here. They want to talk business. KangoBlood and JonnieWidecock exchange a knowing look. JONNIEWIDECOCK: Let’s hear them out. INT. BACK ROOM – DAY Dealerskip, a slick-talking drug dealer, and Dealer K, a femme fatale, sit across from KangoBlood, JonnieWidecock, and HoneyByte. DEALERSKIP: Look, we know you guys got talent. But talent don’t mean nothing without the right connections. DEALER K: That’s right. And we got connections. KANGOBLOOD: We don’t need your connections. DEALERSKIP: Oh, really? You think you can make it in this industry without a little help from the big guys? JONNIEWIDECOCK: We’re not interested in playing by their rules. DEALER K: You better watch your back. You don’t want to end up like those independent artists who got killed off for trying to play the game. HONEYBYTE: What are you talking about? DEALERSKIP: The music industry is cutthroat. The top guys will do whatever it takes to protect their profits. KANGOBLOOD: Even if it means killing off the competition? DEALERSKIP: All I’m saying is, you guys better watch your back. INT. RECORD LABEL OFFICE – DAY KangoBlood, JonnieWidecock, and HoneyByte are meeting with Sid, KangoBlood’s father and the owner of a successful record label. KANGOBLOOD: Dad, we need your help. SID: What’s going on? JONNIEWIDECOCK: We’re up against the top industry, and they’re killing off independent artists for the profits. SID: I’ve heard rumors, but I didn’t think it was that bad. HONEYBYTE: It’s worse than you think. They have the government on their side. SID: The government? KANGOBLOOD: Yeah. They believe African Americans should only be selected for wealth through three degrees of separation. SID: That’s ridiculous. JONNIEWIDECOCK: We know. That’s why we’re going to prove them wrong. INT. MUSIC AWARDS SHOW – NIGHT KangoBlood, JonnieWidecock, and HoneyByte are attending the Music Awards Show, where the top industry is being honored.
