Adaptation

Yesterday
A troubled boy walks through a crowded hallway, searching each and every face for someone particular. He doesn't know why he must find this person, or what he would say to them even if he found them, but his heart aches to be able to just have one more conversation with them. He know's he was wrong the last time they had talked, and wants to make things right. But that's impossible, because he searches for his dad, who passed away.

Ayo For Yayo
A 14 Year old girl wanders the streets of a slum, pondering life and the deeper meaning of it all, when she stumbles upon a riotous group standing outside a bar. Girls Not much older than her, dressed in glittery, shiny clothes, holding onto Wealthy looking gentlemen. The older girls recognize a little bit of themselves in the 14 year old girl so they invite her back to a house for a party. While at the party, the older Girls pull out a white powder, and begin too snort it. They ask her if she would like to try. "She see's the big girls do it so of course it's fine.".....

Hip Hop Saved My life

Just a boy with a paper and pen. He see's his rhymes and lyrics that he writes in his notebook as his way out. People tell him he'll never make it, but from his point of view it can't get any worse so he might as well try. His hard work pays off eventually, he leaves the hood, and raps to younger boys telling them they can do it also.

  1. Is the first one The Beatles? If so, nice change. Isn't the original about a girl? And yours is about a guy's dad passing away.

    And I love Lupe Fiasco's song. There's a good story in that song. It's similar to Biggie's "Juicy"----"It was all a dream"...
