  • Summary

  • When up-and-coming young rapper Koh is discovered on a live Twitch stream and sent out to Los Angeles to follow his dreams, he is quickly thrown to the wolves by producers, agents, and money-hungry industry hangers-on. Soon he meets the sexy and talented songwriter Jessi Fyre, and he tells her about his desire to work with a relatively unknown producer whose identity remains a secret but goes by the moniker "Pierre." When Jessi realizes she can help Koh by revealing who Pierre is, she does. The problem is, Pierre is the alter-ego of NBA star JaVale McGee. And JaVale has no interest in revealing his Pierre alter-ego to the public for fear of not being taken seriously in the music industry. To make matters even more complicated, JaVale is currently in Tokyo for the Olympics where he is playing basketball for Team USA. With Koh’s opportunities running low, songwriting deals on the table, and no idea how he’ll get to Tokyo, he has to decide how he can "Find Pierre" and save his career. With freestyles, late nights in Roppongi, and Team USA struggling to get past the first round of Olympic competition, Finding Pierre is a hip-hop musical adventure that spans the globe and hopefully ends with some dreams coming true.
