"I am never satisfied
with things god allows.
"I am the kind of woman
who sins for entertainment.
"Who says ugly things
about ugly people.
"Who says even uglier things
about prettier people
"who have been ugly to me.
"I am the kind of woman
who is ugly for fun.
"And god knows
I could be so much prettier.
"I am the kind of woman
"who uses her
vagina as a missile.
"Who will beg your pardon,
if you ask for it.
"Who will bust your head,
if you ask for it.
"Who will help you bust your
nut, if you ask for it.
"I am the kind of woman
who says things like,
"'don't ask me for sh*t.'
"but I will give up
anything if you need it.
"But be cautious.
"Because I lose things.
"Like children."
Does anyone else
want to share tonight?
I mean,
Coco Ford.
Miss Ford,
I don't have anything prepared.
Oh, come on.
Please, don't make me do this.
I don't like when
people tell me, "no."
Ladies and gentlemen,
this is my protege,
the very opinionated and
talented hip-hop poet,
coco Ford.
I hope you like this.
That's enough. Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you.
She is both
talented and opinionated.
Well, you can see
how important it is
for all of us to continue
to uplift the unenlightened.
Coco.
Listen, we gotta
talk about this.
Nothing to
talk about. It's over.
I'm done.
Look, coco, wait.
Why would she
invite me out just to
embarrass me in front
of all of her friends?
Dixon likes to toy with people.
It's like her
twisted way of teaching.
hard lessons are poetic.
I'm dropping the course.
You have a gift.
But if we're being perfectly
honest with ourselves.
What happened in there...
I know.
It was a rap, not a poem.
You said it, not me.
Come on, you.
Let's get out of here.
"As you learn to
love yourself better."
"Teach me.
"As you learn to
forgive yourself for failing."
"Teach me."
Ready? Switch.
"The way
"your window was
always brighter to me.
your doorstep is more inviting.
"You've shaken my world."
"You've awoken
my dreams."
"You free my soul."
"You set my goals."
"So...
"Come run with me."
"Come run with me."
That's beautiful.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Read it again.
I've got a better idea.
Really blows my mind.
The way he expresses
love with his words?
Quite magical.
Oh, don't get that.
Si's finest
can't have you today.
I have to get it.
It's my mom.
Hi, mom.
Where are you?
At my friend Derek's house.
Honey, I need you.
Missy canceled.
You gotta come in.
Really?
Girl.
Ma...
I'll be there in 20.
Sorry. I gotta go to work.
Couldn't we just say no today?
No, I can't say no to my mom.
I'll come with you.
What?
Thanks but no.
Stay and enjoy your weekend.
No, it's fine, I'm actually,
a specialty dishwasher person.
Coco, I think it's
time you realized that
I'm more than just
a poet with a pretty face.
And I make a fantastic Shepherd's
pie with Yorkshire pudding.
Gonna go check in with mom.
Okay.
I don't care what you do.
I just need you to boil those
carrots until they are mush.
We do not have denture
insurance up in here.
Hi, mom.
Don't you "hi, mom" me.
Go put that apron on,
get to work.
And where were you last night?
And who is this new guy?
And why haven't I met him?
He's here.
What do you mean, "he here?"
You brought him here, girl?
I don't have time to entertain
the hip-hop nation.
He better not be out there smoking
dope with old man Johnson.
Mom, chill.
It's not even like that.
And besides,
he insisted on helping.
Helping? Yeah, right.
Helping to eat my food.
Do I need to remind you of
your priorities, young lady?
Where is he?
You guys all set? Fantastic.
Ladies, I'm gonna take
I'll be back in two seconds
if you need anything else.
Guys, coffee?
Coffee. Coffee.
I've got you covered, okay?
Oh, he is a cutie.
I know that look.
Yes, I do.
Uh-huh.
Oh!
Mom, you're such a creep.
I like him.
Girl, go help that boy.
I got this.
You wrote that sh*t, co?
I wrote it as a poem,
actually. Play it again.
What do you think?
That sh*t cool, man.
So you a poet now
like your boy Harry Potter?
better herself with poetry.
I've written more in the last
month than I have in years.
No, I ain't feeling it.
Or your whole new direction.
I mean, coco, it's cool
and all, but it doesn't
sound like any of
our other songs.
Well, this is where
I'm at right now, so...
I've been busting my ass writing
lyrics and here you come.
On some hallmark
greeting card type sh*t?
I've had to rap around your stupid
thug fantasy lyrics for years.
You could at least
just give me one song.
Save that sh*t for
a poetry reading.
Well, if I can't make
the music I want then
what's the point of
me being in the group?
Maybe you don't need
to be in the group.
Coke...
This is bullshit.
Coke, he didn't mean that.
Yes, I did.
Malik,
you didn't mean that sh*t.
Yo, reas, play my sh*t.
Play that.
Yeah.
Hi, it's Derek.
You've reached my voicemail.
It's finals time so
I've been pretty busy,
but please leave
Hey, Derek, it's me, coco. I know
you have a late class, but...
I just really need
Call me back when
you get this. Bye.
Things are different now.
You what?
Things are just as
they've always been.
You're seriously?
Look, look, look.
I can't do this anymore.
Hey, don't go.
Don't mess up a good thing.
Coco! Coco, wait!
Coco, listen!
Let me explain to you. Please,
please stop! Just stop!
Just let me explain, okay?
I've been reading professor
Dixon's poetry since high school.
She's the whole reason
I came to America.
I sent her my writing and she
gave me a full scholarship.
Coco, I come from nothing.
No one ever did anything
like that for me before.
Listen, I knew it wasn't right.
But it started happening and...
I didn't know
how to make it stop.
No, coco! Listen, please.
Please. Please,
please, please.
I have one question.
What was gonna happen
if I didn't walk in?
You were supposed
to be different.
Okay, class.
Final exam starts now.
Coco? Coco. Where are you?
How'd you find me here?
Talked to your moms.
She said you had a lot on your mind.
got up in your head, huh?
get the group back together?
Is that your way of
saying you're sorry?
Sorry for what?
For giving Naveen our mix demo?
You sent our demo to Naveen?
Yup.
What did he say?
What did who say?
Naveen.
Well, he liked it. He liked the tracks.
He thinks we got potential.
Come on, what did he say?
Nah, he said,
Si's finest is headlining
the rough street records showcase.
We did it.
He loved our sh*t.
