  I enjoyed this! I can’t name a ton of films exploring that tension between ambition and insecurity, especially as well as this did. It felt easy, the atmosphere calming, and was a good way to start the morning :)

  SXSW DAY 3

  PREMIERE 

  Maybe I was just a little too tired, but this movie felt too long. It is about an aspiring rapper who attempts to make connections in Toronto to promote his music which he cares a lot about. The whole movie made me think about one of my best friends Nikhil who is a rapper, a lot of the stuff in the movie sounds like things I’ve heard Nikhil talk to me about. That being said, 40 minutes could be cut from the movie and it would have been a lot better. Some parts I liked, but overall too long. Plus everyone sounded like Drake

And there's just something about that vibe that makes…

  "I didn't. Other people told me I was ready. I guess I just believed them."

  Yoooooooooooooooo. Charming, fun, funny, felt so true to this city in so many ways – bathroom scene especially. Appreciated the compressed/slice of life timeline and the honesty it gives. Thank you RPFF for the Q&A!

  Loved the story. Something many artists can relate to. Well done and well executed. Made the city a character in the film.
