Reality Show Spin?

The other day, I posted something about how I was thinking about doing a reality show.. Basically the idea was that I, and a couple friends are making music and hustling in Atlanta.. Part of the show was going focus on me trying to right some of my past wrongs by reconciling with people.. mostly female, where things, somehow went wrong in the past.

After writing that post, I pretty much scrapped the idea because it felt really self serving.. It felt like if I really did try to contact all these females.. females who very well could have long forgotten me and whatever wrong I did to them.. and just stir up some old shhh.. All of this is an effort to heal myself, somehow.. But what does the female get out of it? Here she is living some nice, happy life.. and I come, from out of nowhere, and bring up some unpleasant topics???

Even the chance of something like that happening was reason enough to scrap the whole project.. Today, however, I experienced something interesting. There I was.. chilling, listening to dubstep, and it occurred to me how much I've always wanted to experiment with incorporating some dubstep-type elements into my music.. That led to an idea of doing a DJ Shadow -type album, with dubstep influences.. that tells the story of all those females I wanted to reconcile with.. I figured I would even name each song after the female who inspired it.. and then catalog them together under some "Growth Through Heartbreak.." concept.

Ok, so how does that idea sound?
