In T. Chandy’s home studio, KAR33M, Banggz, and T. Chandy meet to record the final song for their collective performance at the upcoming music showcase and live community event that they are preparing to host. They begin by candidly discussing what they want the audience to take from their music and performance; Banggz sees his music as a form of truth-telling and wants to create a unique experience for his listeners, T. Chandy creates his music to stand out and be a source of authentic representation for Sri Lankans, and KAR33M reflects on his music as a way to connect with his community and how important it is to have a trustworthy team around him.
Following their discussion, the three artists describe the artistic choices behind each element of their finale song, called, “Jazz You” - from the meaning behind this finale song to the beat choice and lyricism.
The artists are joined by more instrumentalists to record this final song in the studio. Later, they are joined by Kenza, the group's creative director, who shares her thoughts about their finale song as they share their excitement for the upcoming performance.
