Straight Outta Scotland is the remarkable real life story of how two rappers from Dundee pretended to be two rappers from California & duped the record industry out of hundreds of thousands of pounds. Gavin Bain & Billy Boyd
- or Silibil N' Brains, as they became known
- were two ordinary Scottish boys who shared an extraordinary dream: to become rap superstars. Creating new identities for themselves, they persuaded the music industry that they were the latest hot young talent from California. Silibil N' Brains then lived out that lie for more than two years, securing an enormous record deal with Sony & being catapulted into the industry high-life, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Madonna, Eminem & D12. But, ironically, they could never actually deliver & promote the album that they were paid so much money to put together. As soon as they became famous they would be recognised by anyone who had known them in their former lives in Scotland & the dream would evaporate. As the pressure mounted, there would be disastrous consequences.. . Straight Outta Scotland is a story of incredible highs & terrible lows, of doing whatever it takes to follow your dream.
