A couple of hours had passed and Imani had finished her day at the office with one final task to take a first pass at the material that Rico had recorded for his album. He had already called with the location details, so Imani headed in her car, a sleek black Mercedes G-Wagon to his home. Knocking at the door, she waited for Rico to answer.

Imani smiled as he answered the door, although it was still very much business it was after hours, Imani hadn't had the opportunity to change out of her work clothes. She followed Rico through his home, down into his studio. After listening to the album, Imani nodded enthusiastically. "You certainly put it all out there!" she says with a slight chuckle, "I can definitely see this album being a hit with the female audience."

"You've done a great job with it. It doesn't hide from it's themes. I think there'll be some backlash over the content I have no doubt but I'd be happy for the label to support the release." she smiles, "We'll let you figure out how you want to package everything and put the money behind all of that stuff, I'm sure it'll be a big hit."

Imani laughs a little, "Yeah, you're certainly not lacking in confidence. It's refreshing actually to see someone so abruptly themselves in todays world." She smiles as she's led out of the studio into the hallway of Rico's home. "Of course, thank you for allowing me to check over the album. It's a relief to know that the work is great."

Imani laughs, "Yeah, Aurelia used to be quite shy and demure, she walks with a swagger now." She smirks, although Rico wasn't to know but Aurelia and Imani's close friendship meant that Imani had heard all of the details of their UMA encounter. "Of course, we have to sign off on anything released. But I can't see any issues with what you've shown me today."

Imani nods as she steps out of the door, "I'll be in touch soon. We'll discuss timelines for the record and a rollout plan." She says as she unlocks her car.
