You can sing, you can dance, and you can rap. All in all you're a performer.
Except you aren't. Even though you want to be.
You want nothing more than to make music, sell out shows, and perform for people.
But the doors haven't opened for you...
I've never in my life been to a listening party. Not like this anyway.
Quick recap. Scooter had my song played with a focus group and they loved it. From 13 year old kids to a 48 year old, which is amazing. He then explained that the release party would determine how much of a hit this song is. Even though the few people in the focus group liked it that doesn't mean everyone will. So he's going to get the song into a club and fill it.
A few things about it made me nervous the main two being: a lot of people are about to hear my first ever recorded song and celebrities are going to be there.
Scooter said that it's best that some famous people come to hear the song so that, if they like it, they can post about it and hype it up before it's officially released.
I asked what we'd do about everyone else who will no doubt be recording the song and he said that we want people to do that.
Tonight is the night for the release party.
Scooter hasn't told me the celebrities that are going to be there. He just said to come looking my best.
Which is my problem now.
"Ant!" I call.
"Sup?!"
"Uh, I don't know what to wear!" I call.
His chuckle is quiet because he's in the other room and it's gone by the time he gets in.
My eyes scan his outfit:

"You obviously know what you're doing." I point out.
He shakes his head and starts going through my suitcase. After pulling some stuff out he leaves and comes back with something of his.
"Go get dressed."
I grab the clothes he picked and go change in the bathroom.

"So?"
"What you mean so? I picked it out, of course you look good." He rolls his eyes.
