The Forty-Year-Old Version
The movie really takes shape once Radha feels she’s written enough rhymes to need some beats and reaches out to a Brownsville DJ named D (Oswin Benjamin), who gets paid in weed. The first track she records, is “Poverty Porn,” which reflects back on those supposed “woke” patrons of the arts, and the likes.
