If he and his friends are threatened, he would quickly eliminate them. Jalil was challenged in free style battles. If you win, you're respected. If you lose, you're disliked. He had a lot of bad experiences with school, jobs, and financial problems, but he still took a risk that other teens wouldn't do to put money in his pocket. When he was stable with money, he put everything he had into his music. An executive producer from New York came to Hot Springs, Arkansas to put a talent show together to search for new talent. Jalil entered and was labeled as the best rapper in Hot Springs. He tried to do any and everything in his power to get a record deal.

Jalil was approached by another group of rappers to sign a contract with them. After refusing to sign, he was attacked and almost killed. Kamafloge retaliated against ones responsible for the attack the street way. A serious rap battle was started on the streets and in music between uptown and downtown to compete to get a record deal. After recuperating from his wounds, Jalil came back stronger and exposed the people who tried to kill him in his music.
