Idol
Training
Camp.
Lil Joe trains to debut as a pop idol, live and uncut on Kick. Six days a week, from a practice room in Detroit.
Reps. Records. Rough drafts.
Different parts of the day.
The same work toward debut.
Training, music and the work toward debut.
Uncut
Fixed cameras in a real practice room, including the reps that don't land.
