This film executes a combination of culturally realistic rap battle writing, nuanced protagonist conflict involving real world social inequities, and a story plot line that, once the conflict is revealed, keeps viewers' on high alert hoping the protagonist prevails! Winning combo!

Beautifully shot and directed. Very emotionally drawing. Low budget, shotty, and lazy production design but the director and cinematographer preserver to tell an engaging story.

From the beginning to the end of this film, I was fully engaged! I laughed, I cried, I was in it!! The storyline and message behind the movie was so captivating. From the daytime social to late night club scenes, it was beautifully captured. I would love to see the continuation of this film!

What captured me most about this short was how beautifully it was shot, the colors that were chosen to represent the emotion in each scene was thoughtfully crafted and lended to the overall feel of the film. The storyline was captivating and made you feel like you were right there with Khalil. Overall, really great movie!
