The first time Amala Dlamini saw Jermaine Cole, she thought he looked annoying.
The first time Jermaine saw Amala, he thought she looked bored.
Neither of them thought much of it.
Until Monday morning.
Professor Ellis assigns them as partners for the semester's biggest project. They have to write, produce, record, mix, and master a song together.

He's a rapper with a guitar, a notebook full of unfinished verses, and a habit of turning every argument into a creative challenge.
They don't agree on much.
Except that the other one is talented.
