Lani POV

We been on the phone with Cookie and Andre for hours now, tryna figure out what the fuck we're gonna do to get our label started. We been discussing names, people, artists, everything.

"Ma, I wanna start a girl group." Keem said to Cookie Over the phone

"That's a great Idea Keem, I think I can rent a space for us if Andre can cu us a deal."

"Well is Andre in?"

"He's gonna be, Look, Just meet me at Ghetto Ass Studios. I'll text you the address."

"Aight ma."

"See you."

He hung up

"Ghetto ass studios?" I asked

"Yeah.. You'll see when we get there."

(Media) *At The Building*

We showed up to some raggedy ass building, spray paint everywhere, paint chipping off the walls. Felt like I was in Oakland.

"She's kiddin right? Forget Lyons Den, lets just call it a Pig sty" Dre said

"Nigga we need a name like Emp-"

"Forget the name, the name is beside the point. When we started Empire, we wasn't no Empire. Makin music in Carol's livin room til we graduated to a garage that was way grimier than this place but see, it was those first few songs that planted seeds, and I had to sit on the sidelines and watch Lucious grow into a multi million dolla company worthy of a name like Empire. Now it's my time, so whatever we call it, as long as I got something to do wit it, it's gon look up to it's name." Cookie Explained "Let's go"

We walked into the building and was greeted by some guy.

"Hey Cookie." He said

"Hey, Look, I wanna make a deal for usin this space as our main space"

"You crazy." He walked away but Cookie followed with us behind her

"Oh I know I'm crazy"

"You already in one of our studios, Anika recording with V."

"What!?"

We walked to one of the studios and saw V singing with Anika watching.

Anika tried to put her irrelevant ass input in on V song and it got V mad so Cookie stepped in

"Anika Beat it! I'm working with V now"

"What are you-"

"Out!"

She pushed Anika out

"Aight, ma. We gon go meet these girls at the studio and figure out who gon be in this girl group." Keem told Cookie

"Go do that Hakeem. Come up here when ya'll done."

"Aight."

We left and headed to the dance studio. When we got there, there was girls liked up, we walked in and saw Chicken, Ryan, Max and someone that I haven't met yet. I hugged them then Chicken moved her seat to let me sit next to Keem.

"Aight, bring em in."

We saw a couple girls then got down to the last two.

"Aight, Valentina Gallona... Gollana?" Chicken said

"Gallindo, It's a spanish name meaning, Philosophical and opinionated." She said as she walked in with an attitude

"We'll be the ones with the opinions." I said
