Turn It Up

Synopsis: Trying to bootstrap his way out of Brooklyn's mean streets is Diamond, a rap musician. With his long-time pal Gage acting as his manager, he's trying to lay down a demo tape with cut-rate studio time. To pay the bills, he and Gage run drugs for "Mr. B." Inside a week, Diamond's beloved mother dies suddenly, his father appears after an absence of 12 years and wants a relationship, and his girlfriend Kia tells him she's pregnant, asking him if he's ready to be a father. Gage steals $100,000 in a multiple-felony robbery so that Diamond can record a full album, not knowing it's Mr. B's money he's taken. B wants his money, Diamond wants his music, Kia wants an answer.

Do not wait for fair play.

You see, I'm right?

So what? He who does?

Does that little guy?

Look, bro. Watch how it's done.

The friend I was talking about.

Nice, Diamond.

- And to me, Mr. White.

Well, Diamond, your manager tells me

that music is it to you.

Would you like to iztananikam something?

You do not need, just give me demokaseta.

If you are as good

Honestly, Mr. White, I tell you.

Cartridge is nearly ready. Super E.

Sure am.

So you and your artist

Work on it

and if I ever finish the

To call you?

Only so, can you call?

Not so much hair.

Forget about it.

Hell Joker!

- At least it was a good experience.

All right.

They call us. Let's go.

What took you so long?

Would, as ever f*** with me?

You came?

Diamond, no they will not lately.

Working on his music.

I signed

with a recording studio?

Not yet.

Gage delivers goods,

Tell those pedals

that if I jump with Teddy

pretrepya them.

Well, It. I will warn them.

Come on, Dee.

It is a pleasure to see you again.

Yes, yes. Give brief.

Where is the money?

Why treat me like a stranger?

To say that would not be happy

how do you f*** with Teddy?

No longer do business with Teddy.

Mr. It will be particularly happy

to understand.

All right.

Now it's your turn.

Everything is here.

- Leave it on the table.

Let's get out of here!

Damn! Quick!

I can not believe it.

That small filthy cockroach!

And you try to shake.

- If it was Di,

Now we would be the next world.

- You must feel it.

As Gay said, lucky us.

- Nonsense!

In such a crap

luck is not enough.

I am pleased Gage.

- Yes. You're the best, It.

Enough for me today.

Will hear.

Diamond?

Come.

Did you not to his shadow?

I want to talk to Diamond.

Good. I go out.

Sit down.

Diamond is not my job

to tell you how to live,

but maybe more, much more.

Twice smarter from Gage.

And you know, I know it.

So do not talk nonsense.

I know you want to be rap star

like any other kid in the neighborhood.

I'll be honest with you.

Like Gage, hardworking E.

But I need someone with brains.

Someone like you.

It would, I know Gage is a bit dull

but he is my friend.

Together I am 6 years old.

I am his faithful as he is correct.

Would you make me become a traitor?

Not known.

If you hold on to Mr. B,

will earn money for a whole album.

If you hold on to Mr. B,

or die ... or we will conclude.

The day will come

It will withstand when the wall

and he betrayed us,

without even thinking.

If our music as it should be,

will ever get out of the mire.

I'll tell you something, bro.

This, where we do,

pay for the rent of your studio.

Pay for your f***ing records.

Pay for my car even!

Do not want to go back

the projects?

I do not want any projects

just want to be legitimate.

I want respect.

As we walk in clubs

not all b*tches?

Did not scare niggas all,

Do not crouch with drinks?

How do you want more respect?

You know what your problem is?

Too long to be silly

with industrial Negroes.

They are wrong in the head.

And now you come

and going to confuse me.

Who is it?

Denzel ... I am.

He said he would come straight here

and all night I sit and wait.

I was not his job.

I called the studio was not there.

What do you, check me now?

You know I love it!

Not show such disrespect.

- What? I'm Dee, remember?

Let's stop this game that I

apparently do not know what to do with Gage.

Why did you injure?

- Do not b*tch me out, Diamond,

Your job is what you do,

but when it affects me,

I have the right to rule.

Dear, when they met,

You were so nice.

So nice that not only is unbelievable.

I just wanted to'm your girl.

But I grew up, and you still move

with Gage and playing Batman and Robin.

Are not you tired yet?

This has nothing to do with Gage and me.

I have some things to doopravyane.

As they do, end the recording.

Since when repeating it, Dee?

- What do not believe me?

Dear, if you do not believe,

I long to go.

Then why do I imbed cycling-friendly?

Because you hold.

And I love ...

and do not want to lose.

Diamond, all night I do not go to bed?

Yes, I write.

I'm half an hour of work.

What do you do?

I'll go see Mom

that something is not good.

Yesterday I heard on the phone

I mention nothing.

Call me to tell me how it is

OK, I'll call you.

Give me the number of mobile phone,

you to call me.

I can not.

Why? Tisha has a number of her boyfriend.

I know he's henpecked husband.

If it was conditionally released from jail

with those bracelets

where the signal

every time you leave the perimeter.

Zar-zar! Tisha here Tisha there ...

- Come on.

I tell you, he cursed the day

which gave her the phone.

Did not.

- On the contrary.

Why do you think

that the first work of doctors is

to cut the umbilical cord of the baby?

For men shall be free.

You can roam the earth.

For me, I give you my phone

is like back in the womb.
