for that microphone right there
when the one right next to it
look just like it but cost half, man.
Let's do it this way, man.
If I buy two of them, say you give
them to me both for $90.
This is studio quality. It costs $250.
Now, why would I sell you
two of them for $90 apiece?
Just because of that statement, man,
"The customer's always right,"
ain't you heard?
Not in this case, sir, no.
If you want quality,
you have to pay for it.
Look, man, can't you cut me some
type of break on this stuff here?
What was that?
- What?
- I mean, what you looking at, man?
- Nothing.
- Don't worry, Sparky, man.
I ain't gonna pop or nothing like that.
Look here, man.
The thing is, that gal over there, right?
I got it in real good with her.
I mean, she's my gal and all,
but she don't necessarily
belong to me.
You see, a gal like that, man,
she the type of girl that wanna
shut them doors, lock them,
see what type of specials
you got going on in the back.
And me, I'm the kind of man that
just walk out of here and
leave a girl like that behind
because, like I say, she with me
and all, but she don't belong to me.
Not necessarily.
And maybe when she leaves...
...she can take something that don't
necessarily belong to her neither.
It's like you say, man, you want
quality, you got to pay for that.
Hey, gal.
I need that microphone.
Okay.
I need you to go back there
and be friendly with him
and bring that microphone
out with you, okay?
No. No way.
Nola, I need that microphone.
Get it.
Y'all be good, now.
Hey.
Hey.
- Don't ever do that to me again, D.
- What? I ain't...
No, I ain't some f***ing cash machine,
where you can get sh*t for free.
Ain't like you was
in there sweating bullets.
- I gotta have a say in what I do!
- You was in there for a minute.
- I gotta have a say in what I do!
- Look, man, I was gonna give...
I'm not gonna suck dick
every time you come up short!
You got something for me.
- Do you got something for me?!
- F*** you, D.
- Here, take it! You earned it!
- What the f***'s wrong with you?
This is expensive motherfucking...
Hey, Nola, bring your ass...
- I'm f***ing out of here. I don't care.
- Nola! Don't you do this sh*t right now!
Nola! Bring your ass here, man!
Don't you ever walk away from me!
We do what the f***
we gotta do, man! By any means!
Ain't that right?
We take care of our sh*t.
You think I like this sh*t?
You think I wanna
spend the rest of my life
pimping your pimpled country ass?
Well, not me! I f***ing hate you.
I hate this sh*t!
D!
Do you know what I do
in the back of them cars?
Do you?
Everybody's got something to do!
Everybody's got something important
going on in their life but me, D!
And I want something!
- What do you want?
- I don't really know, but I want some...
- What do you want?
- I don't know.
- Tell me what the f*** you wanna do!
- Not this, D!
You know what, man?
I just got you dressed all wrong.
You know, b*tch like you, man,
you need to have on
one of them suits.
Get you a mobile phone and sh*t.
Get an ear jack.
Man, you gonna feel different.
I'm gonna put you in some
new shoes tomorrow, man.
And you gonna feel
- like you are in charge.
- D!
I know when you're messing
with my head.
Because I let you.
Because sometimes my head
needs to be messed with.
But right now, just don't.
Okay?
Okay.
Hey, Shelby,
I need some high-hat, man.
Give me some high-hat
up top, all right?
Okay, man. This takes a little time.
Look, it should come in right
after the kick. Right there.
Yeah, that's it.
- Try that bit.
- Keep hustlin'
- Keep flowin'
- How that sound?
Tell her to put some more dick in it!
- Most gracious and heavenly Father,
- Okay.
We ask that you bless this food...
...and our home.
- Hi.
- Hey.
My name is Yevette.
I'm Clyde's... I mean, Key's wife.
Oh, yeah. He in the back
with the rest of the fellas.
They fitting to cut something.
Cut?
Well, I like that first one, but you don't.
Well, I think you should
throw out your best ball.
And to me, that's the second one.
Okay. We gonna gab, or we gonna
do the damn thing? Which one?
- Hey, let's beat that b*tch, then, man.
- Hey, everybody.
This here's Yevette, Key's wife.
And look, she brought
everybody sandwiches.
Yeah, yeah. There's...
There's some dill sauce there
in the middle if y'all wanna dip.
If you want.
Hey, you know...
...Key worked really hard
on this last one there,
so you might wanna
just take a little listen to it.
Oh, no. I don't wanna interrupt. I...
- It's just dinnertime. I thought y'all...
- But I think we'd like for you to stay.
Right, Key?
Yeah.
Okay.
Look, this track here, man, this...
This is my heart, man, so...
Before I do my thing,
put my mouth to this mike,
I wanna bless it with a kiss
from my primary investor, all right?
Come on, baby.
Go on, girl.
Hey, just like our primary investor,
that mike is hot.
So kill them fans.
Look, this is my life
And it's a battle within
I gotta survive
Even if I'm sinnin' to win
And if I show no remorse
I'll reap the devil's reward
He said he'd give me riches
But I'm lookin' for more
When I was young
Witnessed my dad standin' for right
Black pride in him
Even though he passin' for white
Took years from my life
Now I'm missin' the man
Mom's on some other sh*t
And now I'm missin' the plan
So I'm stuck
In this f***-the-world mold
All the lessons
To a young teen nigga was cold
Then my pimpin' ass uncle
Put me up on the game
It really ain't no love
It's 'bout this paper, man
Put me in a position
Got me out on a mission
Collectin' from the ho's
Turned me on about pimpin'
A nigga from Memphis
Dealin' with life as a struggle
This is the gift I was given
So I just live by my hustle
Keep hustlin'
It ain't over for me
No, it ain't over for me
Keep flowin'
Flowin'
I'ma step my game up
And get what's coming to me
Keep hustlin'
It ain't over for me
No, it ain't over for me
Keep flowin'
Keep on flowin'
I'ma step my game up
And get what's coming to me
We got to get this sh*t done
by the Fourth of July, man,
because I got some people
I gotta slip this to.
- Who do you know?
- You remember Skinny Black.
I think I see a hater right there.
Hold up.
Hey, there go Skinny Black, man!
- "Skinny Black" Skinny Black?
- Yeah, I know who Skinny Black is.
I've got all of his early stuff,
back when he was still good.
Now, do you really know him,
or just know of him?
I mean, he may not know me, because
we went to different schools and all.
We went to different schools and all,
but, yeah, I know Skinny.
But I'm here to let you know
you ain't taking sh*t,
because I'm running
this goddamn thing!
You wanna make a dollar? Best get
your ass up here with that good sh*t.
Those boys don't want
dirt weed.
Me and him gonna be kicking it over
at Arnel's club on the Fourth of July.
If I can pimp $20 ho's out the back
