Kadus

In the pulsating heart of Atlanta's hip-hop scene, Kadus Yacob's dreams throb with ambition until one event sends him spiraling. Fleeing from a brush with the law, he finds himself in the vibrant chaos of Houston's art world, right in the path of Rebecca "Bex" Hartley.

Bex is a force to be reckoned with—a rockstar by night, leading her band with wild energy, and a bold, defiant artist by day, her murals splashing the city with rebellion, challenging every societal norm.

Kadus, striving to carve his name in the music industry, finds an unexpected muse in Bex, pestering her for help. But Bex is fighting her own war, torn between her art installations, her band's touring schedule, and her family's conservative expectations, she doesn't want or need a nagging kid around.  When he steps into her world, a collision of paint, power, and passion ensues, igniting a sizzling connection that neither can deny.

From the underground beats of Atlanta's nightclubs to the colorful splashes of Houston's art district, their connection deepens, painting a love story as passionate and chaotic as Bex's art. Can the rhythm of Kadus's hip-hop beats resonate with the wild pulse of Bex's rock anthems and the vibrant strokes of her artwork, or will it be another one-hit wonder between these two?

Kadus is an electrifying romance that dances across the lines of opposites-attract, blending the raw energy of a hip-hop artist and a punk rock painter. This passionate narrative charts the journey of two unlikely lovers, discovering that true harmony resonates in embracing their differences, melding their disparate worlds of music and art, and igniting a love as vibrant as a mural and as rhythmic as a beat.
