Renowned in the R&B music realm, Jaire Woods, also known as "Jaja Slidin'," commands respect as a top-tier producer and songwriter, boasting multiple GRAMMY Awards and spearheading the thriving record label, Chosen 4 Eternity Records (C4E). His journey is a testament to overcoming obstacles, navigating daily challenges exacerbated by his ADHD, compounded by the complexities of being a Black transgender male. Despite the burnout from his demanding life, Jaire seeks change, finding solace in the idea of forming a band with his talented college buddies. However, their enthusiasm is marred by one dilemma: no one wants to step up as the lead vocalist. Enter Alaia Mondesir.
Born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, but raised in the vibrant streets of New Orleans since the age of three, Alaia's American dream revolves around becoming a celebrated R&B sensation. Unfazed by naysayers, from classmates to her own parents, Alaia's infectious humor and captivating charm have garnered her a substantial following on TikTok and Instagram. Yet, despite her online success, Alaia's musical aspirations struggle to take flight. Following a heart-wrenching breakup with her ex-fiancée, Alaia fully commits to her dream, relocating to the pulsating heart of Los Angeles, where she finds refuge with her vivacious news anchor cousin, Amor. Three months into her LA adventure, Alaia is on the brink of an unexpected, life-altering opportunity.
