June. 1988

My name is Destiny Patterson im 17.i live in compton one of the most dangerous places in the U.S. I just graduated 2 days ago now im trying to focus on my singing carrer. I live with my brother  Lorenzo but he goes by Ren. And our mother . Ren can rap a lil bit ... He's working on planning a group and i've been BEGGING him to let me get in the studio with them.

"Ren just give me a chance yo!" i screamed as i followed him into the kitchen

"How many times i gah tell you... Im not bringing you with me" he said as he got his juice out the refrigerator

I rolled my eyes "Why not?"

"Because.." he said

"Because what nigga ! See you dont even have a real answer" i said semi yelling

"Because Me and my crew are rappers we aint singing love songs and shit" he said

"You being cruddy rite now" i crossed my arms

"Thats what i do best baby sis" he said in a baby type voice

"What are you two arguing about now ?" mother said as she walked passed us

"Lorenzo won't let me go to the studio with him" i sat down at the table

"Why Lorenzo?" mother asked him

"She can't ma we too hardcore for her"
He said

"Hardcore my ass" i mumbled under my breath but somehow my mother heard it

"Excuse me?" mother said

"My bad.. But ma !" i said

"Im sorry baby i can't make Lorenzo do anything he's damn near grown" mother said

"Look ren just like u wan be a star .. I wanna be a star too ! Think about how badly you wanted to start making. Music" i said.

He sat there silently i bet he was considering it . he finally spoke

"I'll think about it"

"Yes yes ! Thank you brother i love you ! So much !" i said hopping around

"Yea yea" he said walking outside

I knew that was a positive answer because anytime he says he'll think about it .. It means yes

I went upstairs into my room and put on my record player .. I played Michael jackson off the wall album and drifted to sleep

(Later that day )

I heard a loud knock on my bedroom door

"Open the door man!" Lorenzo yelled

I sighed "wutchu want ?"

"Do you wan go to the studio or fucken wut?! Open the door" he said

My eyes widen Nd i hopped up and unlocked the door and opend it

"Im leaving in 20... So get ready " he said and walked away

I got in the shower real quick and then i got out my outfit . i put on a black croptop and some dark ripped jeans with my butter Timberland boots and curled my hair then did my make up . black lipstick is my thing ya kno 😭 lol by that time Ren was ready to go . we hopped in his 6 4 low rider and in about 10mins we were at the studio at his friends house .

"When we go inside dont have a attitude with my dudes aight?"

"Boy what ever" i said as i got out the car

As we approach the house my stomach has butterflies yo like wut if they think im trash at singing .. I just hope everything goes ok 😩
