SHE LOOKED LIKE THE BEGINNING OF

SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL.

Her name was Rain. They met at a rooftop gathering, where a glance became a conversation and a conversation became an invitation.
She seemed thoughtful, independent, and almost too easy to trust.

Then came the unexplained absences, the quiet phone, and a

stranger exchanging money with her in the dark.

“Set Up Queen” reveals the dangerous introduction behind “This Girl’s a Freak.” What first looked like attraction becomes a mystery with consequences far beyond a broken heart.

A NEIGHBORHOOD DOESN'T FALL

APART IN ONE NIGHT.

First came the rumors. Then the suspicious raids, missing evidence, planted accusations, and the growing fear that somebody with authority was

playing both sides.

People who once trusted their neighbors began questioning everyone. Families demanded answers. Every new incident pushed the community

closer to a breaking point.

“Cracked Foundations” exposes one of the roads leading toward “10 Casualties.” It is a story about what happens when corruption damages the very foundations a neighborhood depends on.

BEFORE THE COME-UP, THERE WAS A CHILD

TRYING TO MAKE IT THROUGH.

No spotlight. No applause. No promises that

tomorrow would be better.
Just a mother holding things together, a father who wasn't there, and a boy learning lessons no child should have to learn.

“One Glock, One Shot” reaches back into the life behind “All About Coming Up.” The ambition you hear later didn't appear overnight. It grew out of scarcity, fear, observation, and a determination to become more than his surroundings expected.

WHEN EVERYBODY SAYS BE CAREFUL,

WHO DO YOU BELIEVE?

Trent leaves a warning. Jerry's place has been disturbed. A mysterious flash drive contains information somebody is desperate to recover.
Every new clue makes an old friendship look suspicious.

But the deeper the investigation goes, the harder it becomes to tell the difference between betrayal, blackmail, and somebody trying to protect the people they love.

“Shadows on the Avenue” leads into “Ride With Me 2,” where the past refuses to stay buried and loyalty becomes a

question nobody can answer easily.

THE STREETS WERE QUIET. THAT DIDN'T

MEAN THEY WERE AT PEACE.

A young man is wounded during a police encounter. A family home is raided. Questions go unanswered while cameras and

evidence seem to disappear.

The neighborhood remembers every incident, even when the official explanations fail to satisfy the people who witnessed them.
“Silence Don't Live Here” traces another path toward “10 Casualties.”

It examines the anger, grief, and unanswered questions that accumulate before a community reaches its breaking point.

BEFORE YOU ASK SOMEBODY TO RIDE WITH YOU,

YOU NEED TO KNOW WHO THEY REALLY ARE.

The barbershop feels different. Familiar faces are missing.

A warning from a friend suddenly makes sense.

One phone call changes the mood of an entire night.“The Night Before the Ride” takes you into the hours preceding “Ride With Me.” It captures that uneasy moment when friendship, suspicion, and danger collide—and when the people standing closest to you may be

the hardest to understand.

YOU HEARD WHAT HAPPENED. NOW DISCOVER WHY.

Some songs drop you into the middle of a situation. The danger is already there. The relationship is already broken.

Somebody has already crossed the line.

But every consequence has a history.
BEFORE I GOT HERE follows the clues backward,

giving you the missing conversations, warning signs, and defining experiences that make the stories hit differently

when you hear them again.

HE LEFT HOME CHASING A DREAM.

THE CITY HAD OTHER PLANS.

A Greyhound ticket. Fifteen dollars. A bag full of rhymes.

He thought Los Angeles would be the place where his music finally found a home. Instead, he discovered hunger, dangerous expectations, and a world where even refusing to

participate could carry a price.

“Before I Got Here” reveals the journey that leads into “Around Here”—and the moment a young dreamer realizes his pen

may be the only way to tell the truth and survive it.

BEFORE LOS ANGELES BECAME A BATTLEGROUND,

IT WAS SOMEBODY'S CHILDHOOD.
There were basketball games, bicycles, corner-store trips, and mothers calling their children

home before dark.

Then friendships changed. Neighborhood rules hardened. Familiar streets became places where an innocent mistake could carry a terrible cost.

“Cracks in the Concrete” remembers the childhood before the trouble. “Before the Yellow Tape” follows the loss of innocence that came afterward.

Together, they reveal the experiences that shaped “LA Living”—not just the danger, but the people and memories behind it.

NOBODY SEES EVERY BATTLE A PERSON

FOUGHT BEFORE THEY BROKE DOWN.

Sometimes the hardest part of a story isn't the moment somebody falls. It's everything they carried before reaching that point.

“Before I Fell” explores the difficult choices and personal

struggles leading into “Angel's Exist.”

“Ashes in the Alley” reaches into the exhaustion and

disappointment behind “I'm Tired.”

These stories ask you to look beyond a person's lowest moment and consider the circumstances, hopes, and

unanswered prayers that came before it.

SOME STORIES BEGIN BEFORE A CHILD CAN EVEN SPEAK.

A hospital room. A mother in labor. A city already carrying

its own troubles outside the window.
Every birth brings hope, but no child gets to choose the circumstances waiting beyond the delivery room.

“Cradle to Chaos” and “Roots of the Struggle” explore different beginnings connected to “Child Birth.” They examine family, environment, inherited hardship, and the possibility that a new generation might find a different way forward.

EVERYBODY GETS A DAY. NOT EVERYBODY

GETS THE SAME OPPORTUNITY.

The alarm rings. The morning begins. Another day disappears into responsibilities, bills, unfinished plans, and the feeling that

time is moving faster than life itself.

“Borrowed Minutes” sets the stage for “Losing Time.”
It is a reminder that some of life's biggest losses happen quietly—not in one dramatic event, but in the days we spend

waiting for the right moment to change.

BEFORE I GOT HERE — THE BEGINNING

CHANGES EVERYTHING.

Once you know what happened before, you may never hear the original stories the same way again.

The relationships carry more weight. The warnings become clearer. The decisions reveal their consequences. And the characters become more than the moments that made them famous—or infamous.
BEFORE I GOT HERE is a DIZAZTA storytelling experience about origins, survival, trust, ambition, and the roads that lead people to unexpected destinations.
