I&#8217;ve been looking forward to this.. posted the <a href="http://www.herfection.com/2010/05/video-la-is-my-playground-trailer/">trailer </a>a while back. Features some of the West Coast up and coming finest. <em>&#8220;LA is MY Playground&#8221; . . .is a short film about the subculture of burgeoning LA Hip-Hop acts starring Nipsey Hussle, DOM Kennedy &amp; Pac Div (with a special guest appearance by David Banner). The film captures a once in a lifetime experience of these artists on their rise to stardom. Each artist has a song in the film that directly relates to LA; Showtime-DOM Kennedy, The Mayor-Pac Div, Hometown-Nipsey Hussle, demonstrating different places in their career.</em> Shouts to <a href="http://twitter.com/JasonMadison">Jason</a>, cont readint to read the rest of the write-up.<br />
<span id="more-28166"></span><br />
As a soon to be graduate of LMU&#8217;s film school, Jason took a break to  complete this film. As a Music Producer (DOM Kennedy&#8217;s 25th Hour,  Showtime), Rapper (featured on DOM Kennedy&#8217;s <em>Watermelon Sundae</em>, debut album <em>Stick to the Script</em> &#8211; coming soon) and a Director, he felt that it was his duty to present a  window for all into the lives and music of these artists on a different  platform.</p>
<p>&#8220;Mayor&#8221; is PAC DIVs first hit, that sparked them a  deal with Universal Motown and the video shot by myself and  coodie&amp;chike(creative control) was a journey thru the streets of  South Central and Downtown Los Angeles. We go behind the scenes of the  video and their everyday lives to get a feel of how the group operates,  what sparked the song and what&#8217;s up next.<br />
Nipsey&#8217;s story is one of a  rapper on the come up. He is in complete grind mode in the studio  recording his own verses while taking coffee and pizza breaks  in-between. His &#8220;gangsta&#8221; comrades stop in to join him but that doesn&#8217;t  knock him off his hustle for 1 minute.<br />
DOM&#8217;s portion is the direct  video for the never released &#8220;Showtime&#8221; single, due to technical  reasons. The video was shot in front of the Staples Center during Game 1  of the Finals of our World Champion Lakers, as well as a cameo of the  infamous LA In-n-Out burger.</p>
<p>This is something unlike anything  you&#8217;ve seen before and a style that is sure to be often copied in the  future. Some of the best movies are the ones you have to watch over and  over to get the meaning. This is 1 of those films. Equal parts engaging,  funny, and just cool. &#8220;LA is My Playground&#8221; is a groundbreaking short  film, set to be premiering in a number of Festivals across the country  within the next year.</p>
<p>Enjoy the Film &amp; Stay Tuned for <em>Stick to the Script&#8221;</em> coming soon.</p>
