Ravenel Records' Nina B, a female emcee from New York, has been grinding on the underground scene and paying dues for some time now. The hustle has not gone unnoticed: Nina B has been selected as one of the two up-and-comers for "Gimme A Break", a segment on Angela Yee's show The Morning After. For 12 weeks, Nina B undergoes "artist boot camp": beside getting a chance at showcasing her talent. she's issued a series of challenges and gets advice/criticism from industry insiders and the show's audience throughout. That will help determine if she's got what it takes to make it in the music industry. Nina's learning experience is chronicled through 12 episodes, courtesy of Scenario. The breakdown after the jump.
- Week 1: The Morning After's audience is introduced to Nina B as she recounts her journey and achievements thus far.
- Week 2: Time to work on the interview skills, with help from RapRadar's B.Dot and the audience.
- Week 3: Nina B and KY clear the air and tensions and get feedback on their challenge: a party song.
