Before transformation comes pressure.

Episode 1 captures the early weight — the years when responsibility arrived before readiness, and life began tightening around every decision. It moves through reflection and self-confrontation, documenting what it felt like to carry fear, obligation, and unresolved history while trying to build something stable from unstable ground.

This is Story Mode — the primary form of the work.

A hip-hop memoir told through original music and spoken narrative, documenting pressure before clarity and the conditions that made change unavoidable.

Everything else grows from here.

A first glimpse into Rising Action Potential.

Story Mode is the work itself: a hip-hop memoir told through original music and spoken narrative. Each episode unfolds as a focused, twenty-five-minute listening experience — truth first, no filler.
