Lani POV

I woke up with a text from Cookie saying "Empire at 1:30. You better be there."

I text her back saying "I'll be there."

then got up out of bed and immediately got ready. This is a big ass deal for me...  A lil girl from the bottom living on the streets now making my way to the top at Empire. I can't mess this shit up in any way. I took my shower then did my hygiene routine and straightened my hair.  After getting dressed (Media 1) I grabbed my phone, ran downstairs and grabbed my grape Arizona then drove to Empire. 1:25 already. I walked in Empire, confident as fuck. Can't let these people think i'm weak cause I am nothing of the sort. I called Cookie and after 3 rings she answered

"Hey baby, you here?"

"Yeah, i'm at the front but I don't know where to go from here."

"Aight i'll be down there in a second."

"Aight, I'l see you"

We ended the call then about 30 seconds later, Cookie was running up to me.

"Follow me baby"

we walked down a hall then turned into a room. A studio. and damn, I'm used to recording in people's basements. This is crazy. As we walked farther into the room, I noticed Jamal sitting on a couch.

"Nice to see you again Kehlani." he said as he walked over to hug me

"So you two have met before?"

"Yeah, we met the other day after the meeting." I replied

"Well damn, ruined my surprise." we laughed then cookie pushed me into the booth.she pushed a button then said

"Do you have a song for me today?"

"Yeah but um.. I don't have a beat or a tempo."

"That's Jamal's job, Jamal get on that"

"Aight, Imma give you a beat, just tell me if you like it."

He played the beat and I replied with "I love it"

Cookie smiled then said "Lets get it going then"

The beat started then came the Lyrics (Media)

"Came up from nothing

Had to start hustling

Had to be something

You just had to be stunting

Mad at his mama cause she couldn't buy Jordan's

His mama was poor yeah she could never afford it

Down to do anything Yeah down for whatever

Kids on the come up you know we stick together

That hustle could kill you yeah you gotta be clever

It's cool while you young but you can't do it forever

So if you ride then I'm riding too

By your side kinda stuck on you

You know I fuck witcha, witcha, witcha

You know I fuck witchu, witchu, witchu

He said he loves me cause loyal

Put none above me because I'm loyal

He fucking with me cause I'm loyal

Yeah he with me cause I'm loyal

Up in the morning made you some breakfast

Bank account statements yeah I already checked it

House looking spotless I already swept it
