About me: ****************************************************************
We are Duval directors inspired 2 document the tremendous talent in Da Bang Em! J-Pimp & I have been on a 10-month mission of filming freestyles, battles, concerts, videos, & 1-on-1's on some of Jacksonville's finest in hip hop~This city is loaded! From the backpackin hip-hop heads 2 some gutter durty-south type sh*t, we have stirred err flavor of kool-aid into one jumbo jug of the sweetest hip hop, bound 2 give yo azz diabetes...Grind2Shine!
****************************************************************
"If U dont grind, U dont shine", the infamous words of Mike Jones, are what sparked the movie's name...with the idea of a movie bout duval hip hop coming from C-Bizil & Pimp G...the movie evolved from a fictional krush groove type of story, to documenting the actual grind & survival of the hip-hop dream chasers of Duval ****************************************************************
Thus, Grind2Shine...the story of the grind, the struggle of chasin ur dreams, being bigger 2morrow than u are 2day...the luv of hip hop, Duval County Luv!
****************************************************************
What makes a 14 year old wanna be an MC?
What makes a father of 3 chase the same dream?
What makes a D-boy wanna be a B-boy?
Whether it's slangin or bangin dope azz rhymes & beats, or cookies & arm & hammer crispy treats!
In the murder capital of Florida that we call Duval,
all U can do is Grind2Shine...
"1 city 1 dream 1 mic"...peace:)
