- No.

It's not that she doesn't like rap.

It's just that she hasn't heard good rap.

Why don't you do one for her?

She'd like it.

- "See, I met this girl

- "The other day

"And this is what she had to say

- "She said she didn't hear rap

- "She did not know

- "About the devastating two

- "I'm Darryl

"This is Joe"

You like that!

- That was funny.

- We're funny over here.

Could we have champagne?

We're a hit with this lady.

The men with the black hats.

We're rappers. The Disco Three.

We're performing here.

I ain't never heard of you.

Is you crazy? You never heard of us?

The Disco Three?

We're known everywhere.

Buff, give him a taste.

Why don't you just give us a break?

We won't drink.

We just want to get on the mike.

I'll tell you what.

I'll give you a break this time.

If I catch you trying to get a drink...

...the same way I'm rolling you in now,

I'm gonna roll your fat ass out of here.

- $10 a piece.

- What? $10?

$10 each.

You must be buggin' man.

It's wild, man. You crazy?

Chill out, man. Be cool.

To new friends.

To your new record.

Here comes my brother.

We got more clubs to hit.

This is Russell. That's Karen.

- Hi, Karen.

- And Sheila.

- Hi.

- I liked your song up there.

It was good.

- Real good.

- Thank you.

And you wanted a $5,000 loan?

Right.

- Do you have any collateral?

- We have recording equipment.

Its approximate worth?

Most of it is used.

I'd say it's worth about five...

$50,000.

It's all digital state-of-the-art stuff.

- $50,000?

- Maybe more.

I'd like to take a look at your books.

Did you bring them?

Sure.

If you don't understand anything,

I can explain it. I wrote it myself.

That won't be necessary.

We got it.

What kind of record company

do you have?

What kind?

What type of music?

- Rap music.

- What?

Rap music.

What is rap music?

Let's just show him.

"An insurmountable beat

subject of discussion

"We can sell records

with the aid of percussion

- "There's no category

- "For this story

"We can make lots of money

in any territory"

Give us the loan.

- Gentlemen, I get the idea.

- Good.

I'm very sorry...

...there's no way I can offer you a loan

at this time.

- What are you saying?

- No.

- What do you mean?

- Your loan request is denied.

Maybe when you're more established...

How can we get established

if you don't give us money to get started?

I'm sorry,

but I cannot offer you a loan at this time.

That's bullshit. You're going to tell me...

- Wait a minute.

- Gentlemen...

I think this guy's gay.

I need six pairs of white-on-white Adidas.

Four pairs of red-and-white,

three pairs of burgundy-and-white...

...and five pairs of black-and-white Adidas.

I can't wait two weeks.

I need it right now.

I don't believe them.

They're fronting me

after all the business I gave them.

Sneaker genius, we're trying to rehearse.

- Rehearse?

- Yes.

Put a little rapping in,

then you'd get somewhere.

So what, big deal, you can rap,

but I bet you can't sing and dance.

- Who?

- You.

I'll show you sing and dance.

Put a beat on,

I'll show you sing and dance.

Yo, don't forget to sing, man.

What's this?

You know what I'm saying?

- Now let's see you rap.

- Anybody can rap.

- Go ahead, then.

- All right. I'll give you something.

Give me one of them sleazy sounds.

All right.

Lord. Good God. Wait.

"Everybody stop on the one, yeah

"Give me two

"Good God, good God"

It's greasy!

Wait.

It's too funky today. I can't talk.

Maybe this'll make you feel better.

Wait. I got it.

"I can sing, rap, dance in dress-up pants

"I can rock your whole world

if you'll give me a chance

"I'm Sheila E and my R-A-P

is the best damn rap that could ever be

"I've got a mass appeal, a little girl smile

"I'll make you happy, baby, all the while

"'Cause I'm bad, good God

"And if you got a big enough stick

then come here, Run

"This is my house

Don't you want to learn a new trick

"You big koala bean head?

"You got any licks?"

You real def. We'll put you on stage.

Why don't you do this part over for me

one more time?

What part?

Take the hat.

Try to act like my man, Diggidy D.

Do this one more time.

"I've got a mass appeal..."

Not like that. Just say it.

"I've got a mass appeal, a little girl smile"

What are you looking at?

I'm just looking at you.

See what you want to do with yourself.

- Do that?

- Let's do the rap.

That was a sucker, man.

Carmen, file this.

Take all my money out of that bank.

We don't have an account.

We got to think about this together.

We got to take our time

and figure out something.

We'll figure out how to get this money.

To press the records, we need the money.

Let's think about this as a team.

We'll come up with something, all right?

Let's work on this.

Rick, Carmen.

I got an appointment I forgot about.

- You can't leave!

- I'll talk to you.

Keep the change.

Jay B!

I knew we could do business.

How much money do you need?

Yeah, we're in a good shape now.

- Oh, sh*t.

- Yeah.

- Where...

- Don't ask.

You're rolling with the rush

and that's all you need to know...

...cousin.

Russell, what's up, man?

How you doing?

Kurtis looks hot out there.

- This rap is really happening.

- I told you that six months ago.

You did. I'm a little slow,

but I'm catching on.

I'm tired of this sh*t.

- Where's your crew at?

- I told you they'll be here. Just chill.

You've been popping that sh*t

for three hours. Run better be here.

Man, slow down, man.

What's eating you?

Why you playing hard to get, Russell?

You know I want your boys

up at Galaxy Records.

In fact, I'm ready to make you

a serious offer right now.

What?

I said I'm ready to make you

a serious offer right now.

Look at Kurtis go.

- How serious?

- Look at him.

How serious?

$20,000 to sign,

and then we'll talk about the rest.

Come on, Beik.

When you get really serious, let me know.

I'll tell you what, Russell.

I am serious.

Number's still on the card. Take it.

Go ahead.

Give me a call. See you later.

- I got them.

- Where?

You have about 60 seconds

to get the kids on stage.

- Where you been?

- I got some surprises for you.

- What kind of surprises?

- You want to see it or what, man?

Let's hear it for the King of Rap,

Mr. Kurtis Blow. Come on, everybody!

The King of Rock!

Ladies and gentlemen, Run-DMC.

- Y'all ready to rock?

- Yeah!

Y'all ready to rock?

Y'all chilling?

Before me and D and Jay get started...

...can y'all do me a favor?

Can y'all do me one favor?

Can you meet somebody for me?

Put your hands together

for a good friend of mine, Miss Sheila E!

We got a deal for one act.

I'm gonna pay you for one act.

I hear you.

I can't hear you, say it!

Come on!

- Oh, Sheila, you was good!

- Thank you.

You know, you was real def.

Y'all should've rocked

those Adidas suits I picked out.

You're crazy! I won't wear that!

What did you think? It was def.

What the hell do you think this is?

Don't throw stuff on stage
