The ultimate goal of this plottin' is to shift the narrative from the streets to the screen—a theme explored in stories about "survivor, identity, and legacy" designed for a global audience.
As many artists have noted, the grind is rarely solitary; it’s a "battalion of creativity" where friends and supporters fuel each other’s passions.
Whether it’s in rap lyrics or narrative storytelling, "plottin'" involves several key elements:
Knowing exactly where you want to end up, often after navigating "trauma few could imagine," as seen in the themes of Thru the Eyes of the Hustler's Daughter .
It’s about being "prolific" on the "pitch," using that time in the studio or the boardroom to plan the next move.
The "plottin'" involves breaking down cycles of, in some cases, violence or inherited hardship through art, and shifting from "surviving" to "thriving."
