Super Director Rik Cordero has finally finished his first feature-length film. And it's looking great thus far. The name of the film is Inside a Change. Here's a lil more info about the movie:
"Chris Price (Ephraim Benton) is about to serve 180 days in prison for a first-time offense. When his mother (Karen Chilton) invites him home for dinner, he finds his younger brother (Darrell Vanterpool) following in his footsteps and his older brother, Shawn (Donté Bonner) disowning him. With his family falling apart, Chris is forced to re-examine his life and how he can bring everyone together for his mother's birthday.
Three/21 Films present a feature film by Rik Cordero, starring Ephraim Benton (Push, Baby Boy) and Karen Chilton (Half Nelson). Written by Rik Cordero and Aaron F. Schnore, from a story by Rik Cordero. The executive producer is Dwight King. The film was produced by Mike Fox. The co-producers are Nancy Mitchell, Steve Carless, Brady Nields and Seth Abrams."
The film drops next month and is going to feature some DOPE ass music. I'll let ya'll go visit the OFFICIAL MOVIE SITE to get the low down on just who will be scoring this masterpiece, but I'll bless you with two videos I just watched that were created to couple the film.
The first one is a new joint by The Kickdrums, your favorite remixers favorite remixers, and producer supernovas. They just dropped their first album as a musical act and this is the lead single. MAN, this is a gnarly summer, music on point to the left and right and up and up. a REAL hot song. And an even hotter video..
Get there new album RIGHT HERE! Courtesy of ON SMASH. YUP.
And the second is Wale's "Family Affair" that just dropped a couple days ago. Another hot one from Mr. DC himself. The video is amazing, Rik Cordero is a true genius and he has some fucking masterminds making this music to go with these films, Wale serves it wit this one, on some SERIOUS BIZ!
FUCKING BANANAS. SOULFUL SUNDAES IN FULL EFFECT YA'LL.

Smizzy once said he likes Mr. Ortiz, but he feels like he's one of those rappers that will never blow up. If he keeps making tracks like this, nobody can ignore dude. Joell goes in on this.
