Hustle & Flow Page #4
like a puzzle.
So, you know...
I wish there was something
I could do.
You know, just...
Sh*t, baby, you my whole operation.
You might be what they call a...
Like, a primary investor, you know?
Making this sh*t happen
one trick at a time.
- Hey, Nola.
- What?
Remember when I first met you?
Remember, you was at the truck stop?
Smallest little lot lizard I'd ever seen,
tricking them truckers for change.
But you had balls, man.
Big gorilla balls.
I got love for you, Nola.
Big love.
And I ain't talking about a way a man
love a woman or nothing like that.
I'm talking about like a brother.
Hey, do me a favor.
I want you to put your hands
right here. Both of them.
Now, I'm gonna put
my hands here too.
Know what this means?
What?
It means we in charge.
It means we got our hands
on the wheel. We in charge.
Not them tricks out there, man.
We in charge.
I wanna hear you say it...
...so I can believe in you
the same way you believe in me.
We in charge.
That's the best you can do?
Say it like you mean it.
We in charge.
You said you was all right with this.
It's what you wanna hear, right?
So let's just drop it.
No, Yevette.
I wanna hear what you really think.
- No, you don't.
- Yes, I do.
You say that,
but I know you wanna hear what you
want, so that's what I'm gonna say.
I'm sick and tired of people telling me
what I'm thinking,
like I don't know my
own goddamned mind.
Don't you dare take that tone
with me, Clyde, okay?
- I have supported you in everything...
All right, fine! I'm thrilled!
Okay? Thrilled.
What woman wouldn't want
her husband spending all his time
in a house full of ho's?
What's all this sh*t again?
Drink holders.
Poor man's soundproofing.
So you ain't so dumb, huh?
- D?
- What?
There's someone at the door for you.
Well, sh*t, baby, you know my rates.
- I don't think he want no weed.
- Then wake Nola's ass up.
- I don't think he want that either.
- Sh*t, man.
We have to come up with some
f***ing rules in this house!
- Well, if you just tell me not to
- I wanna put a red light bulb up there
- answer the door, that's fine with me.
- To say I'm working.
- It ain't for me!
- Every time I'm f***ing working,
y'all come and bothering me.
Hey, man.
You Mormons is some
brave motherfuckers.
No, I'm Shelby.
Okay, you Shelby.
All right, look.
Hey, turntable's set up,
and the mixer that D got
has room for four inputs.
- Cool. You got a power strip?
- Oh, we tight.
How many outlets you need?
- Three. I brought my MPC.
- Smart move.
Hey, Key.
Let me holler at you
for a second, man.
- What's up, man?
- Who the f*** is this nigga, man?
That's Shelby. He play piano
down in my church.
You know, I figure we bring him in,
help him develop our sound.
You know he white, right?
No, he just light-skinned.
Yo, peep. I got this sh*t right here
that...
I keep this notepad
so that I can just jot down some sh*t.
It's something...
Get the f*** out of here, man.
It go like this, man.
Y'all sure y'all don't wanna, like,
burn one first, man?
No, man. We can toke up later.
Let's hear what you got.
Fine, man. I got...
Okay.
I bet you won't beat that b*tch
Whoop that b*tch
Got me acting buck and sh*t
Ho's telling me to calm down
But I'm like, "F*** that sh*t"
I'm already on that Hpnotiq
And that Grey Goose
That just gave me a...
What the f*** wrong?
You don't like that sh*t?
- No, D, look.
- I got other sh*t, man.
- No, look... It's okay, man.
- I think that's tight.
It's just that we want radio play, right?
You got a song called
"Beat That B*tch,"
they might hear that
and think that's degrading.
But that's if you're calling
a woman a b*tch.
This sounds like a
tearing-the-club-up song.
Man, I ain't trying to call no ho
no b*tch.
Yeah, I mean, besides,
most of the b*tches I know are guys.
Look, man, y'all preaching to the choir,
all right?
If you had to say something different,
other than "beat that b*tch,"
what would you say?
I don't know. Sh*t. Stuff like...
"Stomp that ho."
- Who gonna play that?
- F***.
- Sh*t, "whoop that trick."
- No, no, no.
- Go back.
- What?
- "Whoop that trick."
- That's it.
- Like what?
- Like a chant, man.
- Whoop that trick
- Whoop that trick?
Get 'em
Whoop that trick

Come on, Shel, find it, man. Find it.
Speed it up. Speed it up.
There you go.
I like that clap.
Not bad to be light-skinned, huh?

Recognize I ain't playin', ho
If you violate off the top
Trick, you gotta go
I done held in a lot of sh*t
And I'm 'bout to flip
Now I think it's time to show
You b*tches who you f***in' with
Djay, that's the name
And I came to bring the pain
Ana on my chest got me
Bustin' at you lemon lames
You ain't know
You f***in' with a street nigga
From the gutter
Pimp-type/drug dealer
Born and raised in the M
Memphis, Tennessee
Before it's said and done
It's only the beginning
I got a lot to say
It's been a long time
And you got hell to pay
Ain't no love, ho
Just bring it to the door
I bar none let my nuts
Hang to the floor
So if you want some
This is your death wish
Better come correct

Okay, let's go smoke that joint.
It's nice to have company, huh?
Thank you.
See, the thing is...
And I believe this, man... . Rap is
coming back home to the South.
- Yeah, man.
- Because this, man...
This is where it all began.
Heavy percussion, repetitive hooks,
sexually suggestive lyrics.
Man, it's all blues, brother.
"Back Door Man" to
"Back That Ass Up."
It's all about pain and...
And p*ssy.
Sorry, baby. And making music, man.
With simple tools,
by any means necessary.
You've got to get what you got to say
out because you got to.
Every man, you know
what I'm saying?
Every man has the right,
the goddamn right...
...to contribute a verse.
