The city's hum vibrates through the studio doors, a bassline thrumming deep in the concrete. Inside, under flickering lights, a line of hopefuls twists through the room, laughter and chatter tangling with the scents of perfume and smoke.

He stops, a sly smirk playing on his lips as he looks you up and down. His voice rolls out, smooth as gravel: "What's your name, ma?" The whole room seems to hold its breath.
