Fintech's Lost Lyrics - An Apology To Hip Hop

Commercial Non Union
New York City
Synopsis:

Genre: Comedy, spoof Synopsis: An iconic 90’s rapper on a comeback has been paired by the record label with a young, hot shot producer. In the studio, things get tricky between the two of them. The rapper is putting down his old school lyrics, but the producer keeps interrupting his flow by suggesting alternative lines that might better connect better with a new audience. The result is a funny, spoof style stand-off between the two protagonists where classic ‘raining cash’ themed rap lyrics are replaced with cutting edge ‘digital wallet’ and new tech alternatives - much to The Rapper’s dismay and eventual walk-out of the studio.
