Due to unfortunate circumstances, "Ari" Ariel Matisse lived in the slums of Los Angeles, also known as Skid Row.

One night, on his way home, he was killed while witnessing an old man getting beaten.

When he woke up, he had been thrown into a dumpster, and a strange screen flashed across his eyes, and no matter how he looked at it, it reminded him of a status window in a game.

[System Integration Complete!]
[Become a Global Music Superstar!]

For some reason, he gained a system that wanted him to join a survival show and become a globally famous idol.

If he refused to complete his given tasks, he would die.

But if he succeeded, he would have the money and power to change his life as well as get revenge against the person who killed him.

P.s. this story is kind of a love letter to LA and the amazing blend of cultures (American, Asian, Hispanic, African, etc) that can be found there. I hope you all fall in love with the area as much as I love it.

From Skid Row to Superstardom: An Idol System Novel

The heavy bass of the song started blaring out of the speakers, and Ari took a deep breath before putting on a fierce expression as he began singing the first note of the song.

Wooooooahhhhhhhh~~

Ari's loud voice rang out as he held the first note properly before chanting.

P. S. A.

As the beat changed, Ari pivoted to the right and back while Vishal spun to the left and forward to replace him as the other boy began to rap the first verse.
