I Got Now

I Got Now

Talk show host Leo Legend has just unveiled the most anticipated news to rock the hip-hop scene: a high-stakes competition between some of New York's most talented and ruthless rap artists. The prize? Half a million dollars and a fully equipped studio to launch the winner's career for the next year. But behind the glitz and glamour of the contest lies a brutal world of desperation, crime, and shattered lives. I Got Now dives deep into the stories of independent artists willing to sacrifice everything-family ties, personal demons, and even their own morals-in their relentless pursuit of fame and fortune. In this gritty world, it's a game of survival: kill or be killed, where only the most vicious will make it to the top. In the battle for success, everyone's got something to lose, and the cost of winning may be higher than anyone ever imagined.
