Make sure you check out Rent A Car. It's as if Friday and The Wash had a baby. The hilarious story of a rental car business owner named ‘D-Stacks’ and his dedicated, but sometimes demented, employees. Business is booming and even ‘Little Man’ is taking his job as “Manager” seriously, until one fateful day when big-shot ‘Boogie White’ rents a car and mistakenly returns it with $10,000 dollars in the trunk. Now ‘D-Stacks’ has only 72 hours to replace the money. Lucky for him, one of his employees is a talented musician, but will his single be amazing enough to make $10,000 in 72 hours? Maybe not, but with friends, hookups, and a killer hood concert, it just might.
Rent A Car stars BET comedian, Shawn Harris. Frank White, Chantal Nicole and comedian Rodney "Lil" Yarbrough round out the rest of this amazing cast.
My experience on the set was great! I met some exceptionally talented people and learned a great deal about production, marketing and management.

Mona Scott-Young
Mona Scott-Young is a top industry executive, multi-media broker and the driving force behind many of today's successful entertainers. As former President and Co-founder of Violator Management, she has headed careers of such artists as Missy Elliott, Busta Rhymes, Maxwell and Fantasia. Monami Entertainment LLC provides Talent Management and Career Direction, Film/Television/Music Production and Product and Brand Development as services.
Mona’s management, marketing and business insight secures television and endorsement deals for clients.
She inspires me because she is a woman making a huge impact on the entertainment industry. I personally feel her best work is brand development. She takes already established artists and assists them in “crossing-over”. She gives her clients mass audience appeal that ultimately takes their specific careers to higher heights.
Monami Entertainment LLC is also Executive Producer of the docu-series “Love and Hip-Hop”, a reality television show that airs on VH1. The second season was highly successful and as a result viewers are in great anticipation for the third season, "Love and Hip-Hop: Atlanta", which is currently in production.
Last month The Riverside Theatre hosted a panel discussion “Women Of Excellence In the Arts”, where Mona shared her personal experiences, success strategies and advice.
She owns a restaurant called J’s Southern Express in Lower Manhattan where the Twin Towers were located. “Opening the restaurant is a natural extension for me. Food, like music, is all about passion, flavor and feeling, and I try to impart that in every venture I undertake,” said Young. Mona got the restaurant name from the first initial in both of her children’s names.
Mona has been honored by The National Association of Black Female Executives in Music Entertainment, Marketer of The Year by Ad Age Magazine and was recognized by the National Congress and Convention of Haitian Americans. She presently sits on the board of The Haitian Roundtable and The RSQ Foundation.
