The Unusual Suspects Book 2

Charles

Yeah we was actually pulling an all-nighter in the studio but we kept the positive energy going from the baby shower. We actually have every artist in the building and we all was kicking it for real. I loved the flow of energy and how they were bouncing ideas off of each other and creating, I loved to see it. At the same time, the song I had started, they all hopped in on. That was gonna be so hard. Each and every artist submitted a verse. Rodney and Iris were just hyping us all up the entire time. The vibe in here was just what we all needed it to be for real.
"Im not gone lie, yall make pain music sound fire as fuck." Rodney said.
"For real. Yall tell your story in such a way that it is relatable to everyone who listens. And even though the situations are deep as hell, there's a light way to take it all in. That's skill." Iris said.
"I'm still stuck that C-Money got bars." Onyx said and everybody laughed.
"I been knew he did. He never told yall how we met?" Little Man said.
"Story Time." Depth said because no one actually did know how I ran into Little Man at all. He was my first artist though because he showed up and out.
"I was in a battle at the time. We used to set shit up in the park. Well I was always out there and when I was walking past, I heard the accent when he was spitting and it caught me off-guard. I'm thinking to myself who tf is the Brit with bars?" Everybody started laughing again. "But anyways, he was battling this dude name Wreck. Now Wreck is nice, I can't lie but C had them punchlines to sink ol boy. I gave him his props and told him to come check out the grand finale. He came over and listened to me battle and immediately walked up and told me we had to talk. I'm thinking he on bullshit, so we battled each other." he said.
"Shit ended in a tie." I said.
"A mufuckin tie. I was mad as fuck. So I'm like naw let's go acapella. So we going round for round. After about an hour though..." Little Man stopped.
"I had to give him his credit, I didn't have nothing left for him. He had that." I admitted to all of them. "But that's how I know good music, I can do my thing too. But each one of yall has something special for sure." I said to them. "So who found Paradox?" Onyx asked.
"That would be me." Rodney said.
"Just like I found you on IG." Paradox said to her. Crazy enough, he is the one that put us on to her and then Iris reeled shorty in. Crazy how that worked.
"So what about Depth?" D asked.
"I found them. I heard Paradox and I'm like damn he sounds like the male version of me. So I had to introduce me." Depth answered.
"I never thought anyone could be more confident than me, but she damn sure made a hell of an entrance." Iris said.
"Swear. She hit me with that 'Yall sound good, but you know what would make yall dope? Me' I had to hear it for myself." I said as I thought back on all of that. Man...she definitely was right.
"Okay so what about the rest of the poly gang?" Onyx asked.
"Aries tells that story the best." I said and Aries immediately burst into laughter as she stood up.
"Alright peep game. I had walked up to this cat because he definitely looked like money and I sell. Feel me? So I walk up like 'The only reason you could possibly be in this neck of the woods is because you coppin cuz you look lost'. He looked at me like I was the craziest bitch in the world." she started.
"You thought she was calling you a Bop?" Rodney asked.
"Hell yeah." I said laughing.
"He did until I'm like I got all types of greenery. I'm showing him flavors, cartridges, hash, the butter and all and then my mixtape fell out my bag. He picked that bad boy up and asked me was the artist any good. I'm like I'm the artist. I played a couple songs and he wasn't convinced so I spit a freestyle."
"While I created the beat off my lil box." Riek had interjected.
"I had to tell him, we all come as a package deal though. You take one, you take all. He just didn't know he was getting three talents." Araya said.
"The rest was history." Aries said.
"And we really just crept up on finding out Dom could write. She never even mentioned it or anything. If it wasn't for her brother's girl mentioning the poetry, we wouldn't even have her." I said.
"Thanks to me for getting her into the studio." Iris said and we all laughed.
"For real though. But yall all showed and proved and I'm grateful for all of yall. No jap."
"Well, glad you said that Big C." Paradox said as Aries, Dom, and Depth walked out the studio.
"Because we got something for you to show you how thankful we are that you changed our lives." Little Man said.
"In more ways than one G." Riek added. They walked back in with this gift bag and handed it to me. I was not expecting this. I opened it and pulled out a box with Iris name on it and handed it to her and then I saw a box for me. We both opened it and saw these Jimmy Choo cologne and perfume sets with these Jimmy Choo duffel bags as well.
"So yall got us in our bag, so we wanted to get yall bigger ones." Araya said.
"By the way this gave us all anxiety. It's hard to pick out scents for people." Onyx said and me and Iris laughed.
"We got you too Rod." D said handing him a bag as well. It was blinged out pocket watch, that bitch was hard.
"You always right on time fam." Depth told him. "We appreciate yall."
