Katz System ~ Episode 1

Distribution - Southside Recordz ~ (THE CONGLOMERATE) Films

In the vibrant streets of Charlotte, North Carolina, "Katz System: Episode 1" revives the spirit of classic urban comedies like "Friday," starring an "yet-to-be-announced" hip-hop artist/rapper playing the character Kelly "FirePower" Lawrence in a breakout "blockbuster" role that channels a 'larger-than-life persona'. On summer break after graduating the twelfth grade, young and financially exhausted "FirePower" is determined to earn enough cash for his dream car and dream girlfriend, forcing him to navigate the chaotic Charlotte, North Carolina "Katz System" bus line alongside his wisecracking, perpetually stoned best friend —"Pebo Patton" aka "Little PP"— a slacker who's always one puff away from trouble.

Bullied relentlessly by a menacing 30 year-old Notorious Criminal Thug ~ "Killer Gotti" who rules the bus routes with intimidation, "FirePower" lands a gig slinging soul food chicken at a local restaurant, where he falls hard for his sassy co-worker: "Shantae" Burris. As romance blossoms, he juggles family life with his homemaker mom and "Katz System" bus-driver dad, all while dodging bullets from "Killer Gotti" and pranks from a cranky security guard (also in a role that will be offered to Martin Lawrence to reprise one of his signature "old school-character antics"), to portray a security guard hell-bent on making bus patrons and their travel safe but miserable. "FirePower" will also pull double duty in the film, embodying various quirky characters inspired by his "real-life" rap music videos, adding layers of humor and absurdity.

Tensions erupt when "FirePower" finally scores a first date at a thumping new club with "Shantae" Burris, only for his arch-nemesis "Killer Gotti" to crash the party, sparking an epic brawl that ends with the bully behind bars. By summer's end, "FirePower" cruises into an exciting unknown future in his shiny new ride, proving that hustle, heart, and a little chaos can turn the ordinary into legendary.

Executive Producer: Edward Rawlinson, distributed by Southside Recordz ~ (THE CONGLOMERATE), and based on an original story and idea from Celestial South Enterprises Films.

Independent Film Documentary: "THE MUSIC INDUSTRY WARS"

SYNOPSIS -  This is a groundbreaking documentary on the music industry and its key players including a full-length personal interview from the "Corporate Executive"/"Owner" of Southside Recordz ~ (The Conglomerate): Edward Rawlinson and also features music videos and unreleased music owned by Southside Recordz ~ (THE CONGLOMERATE)..... Plus insight on some of the music industry's most power executives like Jimmy Iovine and Lyor Cohen; and covers the dirty underbelly of the entertainment music industry that includes exploitation, racketeering and murder. The documentary also dives into the attack and takedown of three independent black owned record companies in the early 2000's being Rap-A-Lot Records, Murder Inc and Death Row Records just to elevate rapper 50 Cent so he could use his fake and overhyped 'street cred' with his beef against rapper Ja Rule that was only tolerated because it benefited white rapper Eminem and music industry powerhouse Interscope Records so that the same fate that befell Vanilla Ice didn't occur to Eminem. Within this dispute; a darker and more sinister occurrence struck the hip-hop community when Jam Master Jay was also murdered making a thin veil connection between certain artist debut entrance songs like Notorious BIG's "Who Shot Ya" and 50 Cent's "Wanksta"......

When his last-chance skip leads him straight to the wolves who stole his life, "Hound" unleashes a storm of old-school grit and vengeance. This time, the bounty isn't just cash... it's redemption.

In-Depth Storyline - He carries the scars of a life lived on the edge, and the bitter taste of betrayal. This embodies "HOUND", a once-revered bounty hunter in the humid Florida landscape, a man whose weathered face tells a thousand stories of successful captures and hard-won justice. Years ago, a slick corporate buyout promised him a comfortable twilight, but it turned into a brutal lesson in greed, leaving him financially gutted and his reputation tarnished. Now, scraping by, "Hound" reluctantly takes on what seems like a simple skip – Lena, a young woman caught in a minor legal bind. But beneath the surface of this routine case lies a dangerous conspiracy, a tangled web that leads directly back to the cold-blooded executives who orchestrated his downfall. As "Hound" delves deeper, his old instincts awaken, fueled by a burning need to reclaim not just the bounty, but his own stolen dignity. This isn't just about bringing in a fugitive; it's about a broken man finding a reason to fight again, confronting his past demons while hunting the wolves who wear corporate suits.

Cinematic Viewpoint ~ This a raw and powerful performance featuring the complex character of ~ (HOUND). Once the king of the bounty hunters, he was betrayed by a system that values profit over justice. Now, with nothing left to lose, (Hound) is back on the streets, tracking a skip that holds the key to exposing the corruption that cost him everything. Get ready for a gritty, action-packed ride as "HOUND" delivers a vengeance you won't forget.

Characters:

* Starring: Hound ~ "Unknown Actor"

* Female Co-Star ~ "Unknown Actress": Lena, in her early twenties, isn't a hardened criminal. She's a young woman with a spark of defiance but ultimately more a product of circumstance than malice. She's a struggling artist, a college student overwhelmed by debt, trying to make ends meet in a town where opportunities are scarce. Her initial bail jump wasn't born out of a desire to evade justice for a serious crime; it was a moment of panic, a desperate attempt to buy time, a misguided act of loyalty to someone else. The minor charge she faces – petty theft and a minor drug offense – feels disproportionate to the forces that are about to descend upon her. Then she found her redeemer.....
