PREVIOUSLY ON LOVE AND

HIP-HOP: ATLANTA...

I TOLD MIMI I FEEL LIKE

SHE HAS A TYPE.

WHATEVER STEVIE "HAD" IS NOT

THE SAME [bleep] HE HAS.

I'M SHOOTING A VIDEO THAT

I'M PUTTING MIMI IN, AND I WANT

YOU GUYS TO SHOW US

SOME SUPPORT.

I NEVER WANT TO FEEL LIKE MY

FRIENDS ARE HURT BY ANY OF

MY ACTIONS.

I WENT THROUGH YOUR PHONE,

SEEING YOU TEXTING, TALKING

WITH FEMALES AND WHATNOT.

I'M GONNA JUST BE STRAIGHT UP.

I THINK WE NEED A BREAK.

BUT YOU KNOW MAMA GOT

YOUR BACK.

BUT JUST HAVE MY BACK

WAY IN THE BACK.

I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW,

YOU KNOW, MY DOOR'S ALWAYS OPEN

FOR YOU.

YOUR DOORS ARE ALWAYS OPEN

FOR ANY [bleep].

LOOK WHAT THE WIND BLEW IN.

HI, STEVIE.

JOSELINE, LET'S DO THIS

LIKE BRUTUS.

LISTEN, I DON'T TALK TO

THE HELP.

[screaming]

YOU TRAIN THESE [bleep].

THEY DON'T OPEN

THEY [bleep] MOUTH.

SAY SOMETHING AGAIN.

GET OFF ME!

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO

WITH THIS.

THIS HAS EVERYTHING TO DO

WITH THIS.

GIVE ME SOME LOVE.

MAN, YOU AND RASHEEDA, MAN,

Y'ALL SEEM LIKE THE PERFECT

COUPLE, LIKE--

BUT YOU GOT TO UNDERSTAND,

WHEN THINGS AIN'T RIGHT--

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?

MISS FROST,

YOUR PREGNANCY TEST IS POSITIVE.

THAT TOPIC COULD BE, LIKE,

Y'ALL BREAKTHROUGH, REALLY.

HI.

HI, HI.

HOW ARE YOU?

SO STEVIE CALLS 'CAUSE HE WANTS

TO TALK ABOUT THE SITUATION

WITH THE BABY.

HE STILL DOESN'T KNOW WHERE EVEN

I LIVE--

THANK GOD--

BUT I KNOW HE'S GONNA

INTERROGATE ME ABOUT IT.

WHAT'S NEW WITH YOU?

OH.

I HEAR WHAT'S NEW.

WHAT?

WHAT DO YOU HEAR?

GOT A NEW GUY NOW, HUH?

STEVIE.

WHAT THIS DUDE DO?

I THOUGHT WE WERE TALKING

ABOUT OUR DAUGHTER.

YOU KNOW, WORD ON THE STREET

IS, MIMI'S RUNNING AROUND WITH

A KNOCKOFF STEVIE J.

COME ON, WHY HAVE SECOND TIER

WHEN YOU COULD BE SITTING

IN THE PENTHOUSE?

I'M HAPPY THAT YOU'RE HAPPY,

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

ARE YOU?

YEAH, BUT HE BETTER GET HIS

TRACK SHOES ON.

KEEP UP AROUND HERE.

THIS IS NO COMPETITION--

THE ONLY COMPETITION'S LIKE

PRINCE AND MICHAEL JACKSON

[bleep].

SO--OKAY, SO WHAT'S

THE PROBLEM?

AND QUINCY JONES AND ALL.

HE IN THE MUSIC BUSINESS, RIGHT?

MM-HMM.

PLAY THE BANJO.

WHAT--WHAT YOU SO WORRIED

ABOUT HIM FOR?

IT'S NOT--I'M NOT.

I'M NOT WORRIED.

YOU KNOW, EVEN SUPERMAN NEEDED

A STUNT DOUBLE, YOU FEEL ME?

STUNT DOUBLE?

WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT?

I WANT TO TALK ABOUT EVA,

'CAUSE WE HAVE TO COME TO SOME

SORT OF...

COMMON GROUND.

WELL, YOU KNOW, I LIKE HER

TO SEE ME ALL THE TIME, JUST

LIKE YOU LIKE HER TO SEE YOU

ALL THE TIME, SO WE GOT TO

FIGURE THAT OUT.

WELL, YOU CLEARLY KNOW

I DON'T LIKE MY DAUGHTER

AROUND YOUR FRIEND.

I DON'T SEE WHAT'S

THE PROBLEM.

YOU DON'T?

SHE'S NOT A THREAT TO HER.

SHE'S COMPLETELY

INAPPROPRIATE FOR A TODDLER.

IT'S NOT LIKE WHEN SHE

AROUND, SHE'S DOING, YOU KNOW,

CRAZY THINGS OR NOTHING.

REALLY?

YEAH.

REALLY?

I MISS YOU.

OF COURSE STEVIE MISSES ME

BUT ONLY WHEN IT'S CONVENIENT

FOR HIM.

HE HAS TO REALIZE THAT I'M HAPPY

WHERE I AM RIGHT NOW.

HE CAN MISS ME ALL HE WANTS.

HE ONLY MISSES ME WHEN, YOU

KNOW, SOMETHING'S GOING ON WITH

HIM AND HIS GIRL, SO GET OUT OF

HERE WITH THAT.

HOW DID YOU GET THIS TATTOO?

I GOT THIS TATTOO BECAUSE

OF YOU.

I WAS IN LOVE WITH YOU.

YOU WERE, RIGHT?

YES, I WAS.

ALL RIGHT, SO JUST KNOW THAT

WE'RE BONDED FOREVER, NOT JUST

BECAUSE OF THE TATTOO, FOR OUR

DAUGHTER TOO.

SO THIS IS TO US BEING GREAT

PARENTS AND FIGURING OUT HOW WE

GONNA HAVE AN ILLUSTRIOUS LIFE

WITH EVA.

YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT HAPPENS

IN THE FUTURE.

I NEVER GIVE UP.

I'M NOT A QUITTER.

NEITHER AM I.

TRACI HAS BEEN IN MY CIRCLE

FOR YEARS, BUT WE KIND OF LOST

CONTACT FOR A MINUTE.

OW.

BAD BITCH IN THE BUILDING.

BUT FOR ME REALLY LOSING MY

BRAIN OVER SCRAPPY...

HEY, BOO.

AND FROM TRACI WORKING SO HARD

AND RAISING HER BABY ON HER OWN,

AT THIS TIME, IT'S TIME FOR US

TO CATCH UP.

I KNOW YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.

THEY STILL TOGETHER, RIGHT?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE [bleep]

IS GOING ON, 'CAUSE I'M TRYING

TO STAY OUT OF IT.

IT AIN'T MY BUSINESS AT ALL.

COME ON.

I'MA BE 100.

BE 100!

I'MA BE 100.

THE LAST TIME I SEEN THAT MAN,

I DIDN'T KNOW WHETHER TO PUNCH

THAT BITCH OR FIGHT HIM.

[bleep] HIM.

FIGHT HIM.

[laughs]

IT'S LIKE I'M CAUGHT BETWEEN

TWO SITUATIONS: DO I WANT TO

MAKE HIM PAY FOR WHAT HE DID,

OR DO I JUST WANT TO SAY,

"FORGET IT.

SCREW IT.

GO ON WITH YOUR LIFE, AND I

DO MINE"?

AS BAD AS I WANT TO DO CERTAIN

NEGATIVE THINGS TO HIM, I CAN'T,

'CAUSE THAT'S WHAT YOU

CALL LOYALTY.

YEAH, HE DID ME WRONG, BUT

RETURNING THE FAVOR AIN'T GONNA

MAKE ME FEEL GOOD, BUT MAKING

HIM FEEL A LITTLE BIT OF

SOMETHING MIGHT.

IT'S NOT WORTH IT, 'CAUSE

I'VE BEEN THERE.

THE PAYBACK IS NOT WORTH IT.

PAYBACK IS NOT WORTH IT.

YEAH.

I'VE DONE IT ALL.

EVERYTHING YOU POSSIBLY IMAGINE

A WOMAN TO DO TO PAY BACK AND

GET REVENGE AND MAKE HIM HURT

AND MAKE HIM FEEL IT, I DID IT.

BUSTING TIRES, BREAKING WINDOWS,

BEATING UP GIRLS, EVERYTHING YOU

COULD THINK OF, 'CAUSE I WAS

IN SO MUCH PAIN, AND IT HURT

SO BAD, AND--

HOW'D YOU GET THROUGH IT?

TIME.

[stammers]

YEAH, EVERYBODY KEEP TELLING ME

THE SAME THING.

THAT'S IT.

TIME.

"TIME, TIME, TIME" IS--

TIME.

I DON'T GOT TIME FOR THAT.

[laughs]

YOU DON'T HAVE TIME FOR TIME?

THAT NEEDED TO HAPPEN

YESTERDAY.

YOU DON'T WANT NO WARRANTS,

SO YOU GOT TO LET IT GO.

WHAT YOU MEAN?

NO PLOTTING.

NO SCHEMING.

YOU'RE DONE.

NO GETTING BACK AT HIM.

NO TRYING TO MAKE HIM FEEL

WHAT YOU FELT.

YOU MEAN GET WITH

SOMEBODY ELSE?

JUST MOVE ON.

[clicks tongue]

[stammers and groans]

HEY.

WHAT UP?

WHAT ARE WE HAVING?

I WAS HOPING YOU COULD SPARE

ME A LITTLE BIT OF YOUR TIME

BEFORE YOU LEAVE.

OF COURSE.

WHY YOU SAY "SPARE"?

THAT'S NORMAL.

WELL, BECAUSE, YOU KNOW,

I MEAN, LATELY WE AIN'T BEEN

IN A GOOD PLACE.

JUST KEEPING IT REAL, YOU KNOW?

I'M GLAD RASHEEDA SAID

SOMETHING TO ME 'CAUSE WE REALLY

HAVEN'T HAD A MINUTE TO LAY

EVERYTHING ON THE TABLE.

I'VE BEEN TRYING NOT TO EVEN

BUMP HEADS WITH HER, JUST STAY

AWAY, BECAUSE I KNOW THAT SHE'S

DOING SOMETHING THAT I'M NOT

INTO RIGHT NOW.

I DON'T FEEL LIKE GETTING TO

A PLACE WHERE I DON'T WANT TO

BE AROUND.

I DON'T KNOW.

I'D RATHER GO RIDE A BIKE

OR FIND SPACE.

WE GOT TO BE AROUND EACH OTHER,

BUT SOMETIME I BE LIKE, "WHAT,

DO WE NEED TO TAKE A BREAK

AND GO LEFT AND SIT DOWN AND

FIGURE OUT PEACE AMONGST

ONE ANOTHER?"

IS THAT YOU FEELING LIKE?

YOU FEELING LIKE YOU WANT TO

TAKE A BREAK?

'CAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW YOU REALLY,

LIKE, TAKE BREAKS IN A MARRIAGE.

LIKE, I FEEL LIKE IT'S LIKE--

YOU WORK YOUR [bleep] OUT.

KIRK AND I HAVE REAL ISSUES,

FROM HIS BROTHER'S HEART

TRANSPLANT TO HIS SON'S LEGAL

ISSUES, BUT LET'S DEAL WITH IT

INSTEAD OF RUNNING FROM IT.

I ALREADY OFFERED A SOLUTION:

MY JEWELRY LINE, WHICH IS

A SLAM DUNK MONEYMAKER.

WITH THE STORE SITUATION, I LOOK

AT LIKE, YOU KNOW, AT FIRST,

YOU'RE LIKE, "YES, RASHEEDA,

WE'RE GONNA DO THIS."

AND LIKE I SAID, I KNOW

[bleep] HAPPENED--

WHAT PART ABOUT BAD TIMING

IS NOT SAYING NO?

I'M TELLING YOU IT'S BAD TIMING.

IT'S TOO MUCH ON OUR PLATE.

THAT IS NOT GONNA FLY RIGHT NOW.

TO ME, YOU'RE NOT BEING

A TEAM PLAYER.

YOU JUST THINKING ABOUT...

AND I FEEL LIKE--

THINGS YOU WANT, AND IT'S

REALLY--AND IT IRRITATES

THE [bleep] OUT OF ME.

WHERE DO WE GO?

LIKE, WHAT YOU WANT ME TO DO?

I WANT US TO TRY TO GET TO

SOME KIND OF PLACE, BECAUSE WE

GONNA HAVE SOME OTHER TYPE OF

RESPONSIBILITIES GOING ON.

YEAH, THAT'S EXACTLY WHY

I SAID "NO STORE RIGHT NOW."

THE TIMING AIN'T RIGHT.

YOU DON'T NEED MORE.

WELL, TIMING IS--

[laughs]

TIMING IS NEVER RIGHT,

TO BE HONEST WITH YOU.

I--

I WENT TO THE DOCTOR YESTERDAY,

AND...

I'M PREGNANT.

YOU JUSTIFY EVERYTHING THAT YOU

SAY AND DO, BUT WHEN IT COMES TO

ME, IT'S ALWAYS FINGER-POINTING.

AM I PREGNANT?

YOU DON'T GOT TO BE ALL IN

MY BUSINESS.

I JUST HAVE TO DO YOU LIKE MY

MAMA DID ME: STEP THE HELL BACK,

AND WHEN YOU FALL, I CAN'T PICK

YOU UP.

EVERY TIME I HAVE A [bleep]

SCENE, IT'S GOT TO BE RUINED BY

SOME BULL[bleep].

I'M NOT THE ONE THAT'S

[bleep] DOING NOTHING WRONG

RIGHT NOW.

THAT'S CRAZY.

I DON'T THINK THE TIMING'S

RIGHT.

I'M JUST GONNA TELL YOU

THAT NOW.

OKAY, SO WITH YOU TELLING ME

YOU DON'T THINK THE TIMING'S

RIGHT, WHAT ARE YOU SAYING

TO ME?

I DON'T KNOW.

THERE'S JUST TOO MUCH ALREADY

GOING ON.

BUT I FEEL LIKE OF ALL

THE TIMES OF YOU TALKING TO ME,

SAYING THAT THAT'S SOMETHING

THAT YOU WANT, AND THEN EVEN

THOUGH, YES, WE GOING THROUGH

A LITTLE BUMP IN THE ROAD--

THAT HAPPENS IN PEOPLE LIFE.

I TELL YOU SOMETHING THAT

THE LORD IS BLESSING US WITH,

AND YOU'RE TELLING ME, "OH,

THE TIMING AIN'T GOOD."

IS THE TIMING EVER GOOD?

BUT THE BEAUTIFUL PART ABOUT IT

IS, WE'LL HAVE A CHILD THAT WE

ALWAYS TALKED ABOUT WE WANTED

ANOTHER KID.

AND KY IS 12 ALREADY.

YES, AND I'M LOOKING FORWARD

TO HIM GETTING 18 AND BE ABLE TO

LEAVE OUT OF TOWN AND DON'T HAVE

TO RUSH BACK HOME.

I'M READY TO HAVE A BREAK.

WELL, I APOLOGIZE THAT ME AND

ME HAVING A BABY'S NOT A PART

OF YOUR LIFE PLAN.

THIS IS THE SAME MAN WHO TOLD ME

A YEAR AGO NOT TO SACRIFICE MY

FAMILY FOR A CAREER.

I GUESS THAT WAS A BUNCH OF

[bleep], AND BESIDES, KIRK AND I

HAVE DONE THIS BEFORE.

WHEN WE HAD OUR SON, KY, I WAS

TOURING AND DOING EVERYTHING

I NEEDED TO DO DURING MY

PREGNANCY, BUT THIS [bleep]

RIGHT HERE IS [bleep].

I'M GONNA DO EVERYTHING THAT

NEED TO BE DONE, AND WHEN--

AND AFTER I HAD A BABY, YOU KNOW

EVERYTHING WILL BE LINED UP--

THAT'S YOUR FAULT, THOUGH.

I TOLD YOU.

THAT'S WHAT I TOLD YOU.

WHAT YOU MEAN IT'S MY FAULT?

'CAUSE I TOLD YOU, YOU

SHOULD'VE KEPT TAKING

YOUR PILLS.

DON'T ACT LIKE I DON'T TAKE

BREAKS SOMETIME.

I MEAN, I'VE BEEN TAKING THEM

[bleep] SINCE A TEENAGER.

YOU JUSTIFY EVERYTHING THAT YOU

SAY AND DO, BUT WHEN IT COMES TO

ME, IT'S ALWAYS FINGER-POINTING.

AM I PREGNANT?

DID I TELL YOU TO STOP

TAKING PILLS?

YOU DID NOT TELL ME, BUT

DON'T ACT LIKE YOU--

OH, BUT YOU WEREN'T ACTING LIKE

YOU CARED.

WELL, WHAT MAKES YOU

SAY THAT?

I MEAN--I MEAN, WE WAS HAVING

SEX JUST, LIKE--

CONDOMS.

OKAY, AND SEVERAL TIMES

WITHOUT THEM.

AND NOT--

SO THAT'S--THAT CAN HAPPEN.

AND NOT DOING IT, LIKE--

THAT'S DIFFERENT.

LIKE, OUT AIN'T IN YOU.

THAT SOUNDS CRAZY.

JUST BECAUSE YOU PULL OUT DON'T

MEAN A WOMAN CAN'T GET PREGNANT.

YOU LEARNED THAT [bleep] IN DAMN

MIDDLE SCHOOL.

RASHEEDA TOLD ME A YEAR AGO

SHE WASN'T READY TO HAVE

A CHILD, AND SHE TOOK ALL

THE PROPER PRECAUTIONS NOT

TO HAVE ONE.

NOW THIS YEAR, SHE WANTS TO HAVE

ONE, AND I'M TOTALLY NOT READY

FOR ONE.

SO HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO BE DOING

BACKFLIPS RIGHT NOW WHEN I HAVE

A MILLION OTHER THINGS

ON MY MIND?

LIKE, THIS IS NOT JOY.

THIS IS NOT PLEASURE.

THIS IS A SETBACK TO ME.

IF I GOT TO GO THROUGH IT

AND YOU'RE NOT AROUND OR HOWEVER

YOU THINK YOU FEELING, THEN

THAT'S ON YOU.

[sighs]

I WANT SOME OF THAT.

OH, THAT'S A VERY SPECIAL

CAKE, SHAY.

YOU SEE IT SAYS, "E.O.E."

"E.O.E."?

"END OF ENGAGEMENT."

SCRAPPY HAS LEFT THE BAT CAVE.

THAT'S THE REASON MERLOT IS

OVER HERE, BECAUSE UNFORTUNATELY

I'M HAVING TO PICK UP AFTER

HIS BEHIND.

YOU THINK IT'S REALLY

OVER, THOUGH?

MM-HMM.

HE BROUGHT HIS CLOTHES OVER.

HE SAID, "MA, I COULDN'T TAKE IT

NO MORE."

WHAT AM I CELEBRATING?

COMING INTO THE CASTLE.

OH, MY GOD.

WHAT YOU GOT UP YOUR SLEEVE?

FOR REAL.

I JUST WANT TO SEE HOW

IT GOES.

YOU ONLY CALLED ME OVER HERE

TO TELL ME THIS?

YEAH, AND--

I KNEW IT WASN'T ANYTHING.

WELL, YOU KNOW, CALLED

SCRAPPY OVER HERE.

I'M--MOMMA DEE.

MY TIME WITH SCRAPPY

IS O.V., HONEY.

THAT IS IN THE PAST.

THAT DUSTY RELATIONSHIP IS

OVER WITH.

FAR AS SITTING ON MOMMA DEE'S

THRONE, I LOVE MOMMA DEE TO

DEATH, BUT I GOT MY OWN THRONE

TO HANDLE.

BE GONE.

[knocking on door]

OH, GOD.

HEY.

HEY, MA.

WHAT'S UP?

YOU MUST'VE JUST GOT OFF

THE PLANE.

WOW.

HEY.

YOU WANT A PLATE, 'CAUSE

I WENT THROUGH THE TROUBLE

OF BUYING A CAKE FOR, YOU KNOW,

CELEBRATING.

CELEBRATING WHAT?

WHAT'S THE CAKE FOR?

YOU WANT TO SEE IT?

I SPECIALLY ENGRAVED IT FOR US.

LOOK WHAT IT SAYS.

"E.O.E."

WHAT IS "E.O.E."?

"END OF ENGAGEMENT."

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

WELL, I JUST THOUGHT WE'LL

JUST CELEBRATE--

FIRST OF ALL--

MAKING A POUND CAKE.

FIRST OF ALL, WHAT IS, MA,

I'M TAKING A BREAK

FROM EVERYTHING.

EXCEPT FOR BEING A DADDY.

MM-HMM.

I'M TAKING A BREAK FROM BEING

A SON.

TAKING A BREAK FROM BEING...

OH, YOU CAN NEVER STOP

BEING A SON.

A FIANCE AND ALL THAT.

I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THIS

LADY GOT THIS CAKE AND SHE'S SO

CHEERFUL ABOUT SOMETHING THAT

HURTS IN MY LIFE.

I JUST FEEL LIKE, ONCE AGAIN,

SHE'S JUST WORRIED ABOUT HERSELF

AND HOW SHE FEELS.

YOU AIN'T GOT TO BE ALL IN MY

BUSINESS, YOU KNOW WHAT

I'M SAYING?

THAT'S WHY YOU GOT AWAY.

BUT YOU DO COME TO ME.

I WON'T COME TO YOU NO MORE.

I JUST HAVE TO DO YOU LIKE MY

MAMA DID ME: STEP THE HELL BACK,

AND WHEN YOU FALL, I CAN'T PICK

YOU UP, 'CAUSE, YOU KNOW WHAT?

YOU TURN ON ME.

RIGHT NOW, YOU KNOW WHAT

I'M FOCUSED ON?

MY DAUGHTER AND MY CAREER.

SO WITH THAT BEING SAID,

IF HE WANTS ME TO STAY OUT OF

HIS BUSINESS, I WILL STAY OUT

OF HIS BUSINESS.

YEAH, YOU DEFINITELY--

Y'ALL DO THIS A LOT.

THEY DO THIS ALL THE TIME.

THEY GO AT IT, GO AT IT,

GO AT IT, AND THEN THEY ACT LIKE

NOTHING EVER HAPPENED.

SO I WAS JUST SITTING OVER THERE

JUST WAITING FOR IT TO BE

OVER WITH.

I'M NOT YOUR WHAT?

YOU'RE MY SON.

AND WHAT I'M NOT?

I'M NOT YOUR DADDY, AND I'M NOT

YOUR BOYFRIEND.

NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY, I'M

STILL YOUR MAMA, AND YOU'RE NOT

THE ONLY CHILD THAT HAS BUCKED

ON THEIR MAMA BECAUSE OF THEIR

LIFE SITUATION,

THEIR LIFE CHOICES.

MA, HERE'S WHAT YOU FAIL

TO REALIZE.

JUST 'CAUSE I DON'T AGREE

WITH YOU--

I JUST GAVE YOU--

JUST 'CAUSE I DON'T AGREE

WITH YOU--

I JUST GAVE YOU PROPS.

YOU GONNA TURN AROUND AND TRY TO

STEP ON ME NOW?

IT'S PROPS WITH A LITTLE

NEGATIVITY IN IT.

YOU FEEL ME?

I UNDERSTAND THAT.

LISTEN, I HEARD IT WELL.

LISTEN.

I'M ME, AND I'MA DO ME.

IF I WANT TO SEE A GIRL

SUCKING HER FINGER, I JUST GOT

TO SAY, "YO, YOU GOT LIPSTICK

ON YOUR TEETH."

EXACTLY, AND BE LIKE,

"I HEARD THAT IF YOU SUCK YOUR

FINGER, YOU KNOW, IT GETS ALL

THAT OFF."

"REALLY? OKAY."

HEY.

HI.

YOU HAVE A LITTLE--

WE WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT THAT.

IS IT ON MY TEETH?

YOU'RE GOOD NOW.

I TOLD DREW THAT I WOULD KEEP

THINGS PROFESSIONAL, 'CAUSE

I THINK THIS STORE'S A GOOD

INVESTMENT, SO I AGREED TO

INTERVIEW SOME POTENTIAL

CANDIDATES, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE HE

BROUGHT IN A BUNCH OF HOS.

HOW YOU DOING, GIRL?

GORGEOUS, GORGEOUS.

JUST CAN'T STOP LOOKING...

[chuckles]

AT YOUR BOOBIES.

YOU GOT NICE TEETH.

THANK YOU.

OH, BOY.

YEAH, SO WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

ASIA.

I'M TIFFANY.

ERICA PINKETT.

NICE TO MEET YOU.

HI.

AND YOU'RE DJ DREW.

UH-HUH.

OKAY.

WHAT'S YOUR ETHNICITY?

I'M LAOS, THAI,

AND VIETNAMESE.

OKAY, LOT OF NOODLES.

I NOTICED A LOWER BACK TATTOO

WHEN YOU WALKED IN.

I DO HAVE ONE.

SOME MAY SAY THAT'S

A HOLE IN ONE.

I'M SORRY.

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?

WE'RE INTERVIEWING.

THIS IS--

THIS IS HOW YOU INTERVIEW?

YEAH.

OKAY.

OKAY, WELL, TELL US ABOUT

YOUR WORK EXPERIENCE.

I'VE WORKED RETAIL IN HIGH

SCHOOL AND A LOT OF

MODELING EXPERIENCE.

I USED TO WORK AT HOOTERS.

A HOOTERS GIRL.

YOU GOT ANY PICTURES OF THAT?

DON'T ANSWER THAT.

GO AHEAD.

[laughs]

I'VE DONE VIDEO WORK.

I WOULDN'T CONSIDER MYSELF

A "VIDEO VIXEN."

THEY CALL 'EM "VIDEO VIXENS"?

THAT'S--YEAH, THAT'S--

I THOUGHT THEY WERE CALLED

VIDEO HOS.

NO, NO.

I'M NOT A HO.

NO, NO, NO, I'M NOT CALLING

HER A HO.

I SAID I THOUGHT THEY WERE

CALLED VIDEO HOS.

OKAY.

LET'S BE PROFESSIONAL.

I'M STARTING TO THINK DREW'S

AD FOR THIS POSITION SAID,

"CHRIS BROWN'S DJ LOOKING FOR

POPCORN VIDEO HO THAT WANTS TO

WORK AT A SNEAKER STORE."

WE NEED TO GET A BETTER

SELECTION IN HERE, 'CAUSE THIS

[bleep] IS INSULTING.

I THINK THIS WENT WELL.

I MEAN, I DON'T AGREE.

YOU'RE NOT THINKING ABOUT WHO'S

RUNNING IT.

YOU'RE NOT THINKING ABOUT SALES.

ALL YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT IS,

PEOPLE WALK IN AND SEE

BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE.

HOWEVER, SPEAKING--

EXCUSE ME.

WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.

CAN Y'ALL BE QUIET, PLEASE?

I WOULD APPRECIATE THAT.

HMM?

CAN Y'ALL BE QUIET, PLEASE?

OH, OKAY.

YOU GOT THAT.

THANK YOU.

I KNOW I GOT THAT.

YOU GOT THAT.

I KNOW I DO.

ACTUALLY, CAN Y'ALL LEAVE?

ARE YOU GUYS DATING?

HOLD UP.

DOES IT MATTER?

I WAS JUST WONDERING.

PLEASE DON'T PISS ME OFF.

I'M NOT IN THE MOOD.

SHE'S JUST A HATER.

I WAS JUST WONDERING, 'CAUSE

THE WAY YOU GUYS ACT--

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

WHAT DID SHE CALL ME?

ARE YOU TAKING OFF

YOUR SHOES?

DID SHE JUST CALL ME A HATER

AT A JOB INTERVIEW?

TRACI, CHILL OUT.

CAN YOU PLEASE LEAVE?

THANK YOU.

BYE, VIDEO HOS.

SEE YOU LATER.

OKAY, SWEETIE.

YOU'RE JUST A HATER.

I'M EDUCATED AND BEAUTIFUL.

BYE, BITCH.

SEE YOU LATER.

WHERE'S YOUR DEGREE?

DO YOU HAVE ONE?

LEAVE, LEAVE, LEAVE.

DO YOU HAVE A DEGREE?

CAN YOU SPELL "DEGREE"?

YEAH?

[bleep].

ALL OF THEM LOOK LIKE HOS.

YOU DID NOT BRING IN GOOD

CANDIDATES WHO COULD REALLY RUN

THIS STORE.

YOU BROUGHT IN HOS!

I COACH THE TEAM.

YOU QUARTERBACK.

I'M STARTING QUARTERBACK.

MM-HMM.

ALL OF THEM LOOK LIKE HOS.

BYE, DREW.

BROUGHT THESE BITCHES IN

HERE TO DISRESPECT ME.

THAT'S WHAT YOU DID.

YOU BROUGHT THEM IN HERE TO

DISRESPECT ME.

WHY WOULD I DO THAT?

SIT DOWN.

I HAVE NO IDEA WHY WE'RE ON

DIFFERENT PAGES.

I KNOW HOW A GUY THINKS.

ONCE A GUY PUTS A PAIR OF SHOES

ON AND GIRL SAYS, "YO, THAT

LOOKS GOOD ON YOU," THEY GONNA

GET IT JUST OFF THE FACT THAT

THE GIRL WAS IN THERE TELLING

HIM IT LOOKED GOOD.

WHAT JUST HAPPENED?

YOU DID NOT BRING IN GOOD

CANDIDATES WHO COULD REALLY RUN

THIS STORE.

YOU BROUGHT IN HOS!

YOU SHOULD'VE ALREADY KNEW FROM

JUMP WHEN THEY WALKED THROUGH

THE DOOR, "TRACI'S NOT

ACCEPTING THIS.

YOU SHOULD PROBABLY GO

THE [bleep] HOME."

INSTEAD, YOU'RE SITTING THERE,

CARRYING ON--

[giggles mockingly]

AND LAUGHING IT UP WITH

THESE HOS.

ALL RIGHT, WELL, WE'LL DO

THIS OVER.

YOU GONNA CONDUCT THE INTERVIEW.

I NEED THE CHECK.

I NEED THE $25,000 BECAUSE WE

NEED TO GO AHEAD AND DO

THE BUILD OUT OF

THE STORE, SO...

I GOT TO GO.

JUST--

WAIT, HOLD UP.

I NEED AN ANSWER FROM YOU

RIGHT NOW.

LIKE, WHEN I CAN GET THE REST

OF THE MONEY?

YOU GOT TO GIVE ME A MINUTE

TO THINK ABOUT THIS WHOLE THING,

BECAUSE LITERALLY EVERY TIME

I GET AROUND YOU, IT'S ARGUING.

IT'S FIGHTING.

IT'S SOMETHING.

AND IT'S ALMOST LIKE YOU DON'T

KNOW ME AT ALL OR WHAT MAKES ME

GET TO THIS PLACE.

YOU JUST GOT TO RELAX MORE.

JUST--IT'S NOT THAT SERIOUS.

LIKE, YOU CALLED THE GIRLS A HO.

THIS IS $25,000 I'M INVESTING

IN THIS BUSINESS.

IT IS THAT SERIOUS.

AND YOU'RE GONNA MAKE THAT

TEN TIMES OVER.

LIKE, IT'S A NO-BRAINER.

I LOOK AT BUSINESS CLEARLY

DIFFERENT FROM YOU.

VIDEO HOS, TO ME, IS NOT A PART

OF OUR BRAND OR OUR BUSINESS.

STILL NEED THE MONEY, THOUGH.

WE'LL DO THIS LATER.

OH, GOD.

CAN I GET THE MONEY, THOUGH?

A LOT OF PEOPLE SAY, YOU

KNOW, YOU NEVER GET A SECOND

CHANCE TO MAKE A FIRST

IMPRESSION, BUT I DON'T

BELIEVE THAT.

I KNOW CHE' MACK WAS ACTING

A LITTLE CRAZY AT THE CLUB, AND

I KNOW THERE'S MORE TO IT

THAN THAT.

SO WHEN SHORTY CALLED ME AND

TOLD ME HER CRIB GOT

BROKEN INTO...

[knocking on door]

I HAD TO SO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

OH, MY GOODNESS.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

BUT YOU KNOW I HAD TO LAY

DOWN THE LAW TO HER FIRST

'CAUSE SHE WAS WAY OUT OF LINE

WITH SOME OF THAT [bleep] SHE

WAS TALKING.

YOU KNOW, I HAD TO COME BY AND

CHECK ON YOU.

I HEARD SOMETHING HAPPENED, SO

I WANTED MAKE SURE YOU WAS

ALL RIGHT.

OH, I'M GLAD YOU DID.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

AND LAST TIME I SEEN YOU--

I WANTED TO APOLOGIZE 'CAUSE--

OH, YEAH?

WHAT'S UP?

YOU WERE GOING HARD.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

YOU WAS GOING HARD ON ME.

WHAT'S UP WITH THAT?

IT WAS THE JAGER, AND IT WAS

A BUILDUP, BECAUSE I REALLY

WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW HOW

I FELT.

'CAUSE YOUR BEHAVIOR

THE OTHER NIGHT LED ME TO

BELIEVE I CAN'T CONTROL--

I CAN'T CONTROL YOU.

I AM AN AGGRESSIVE PERSON.

OKAY.

I HAVE AN ABILITY TO TURN IT

ON AND TURN IT OFF.

I LIKE YOU TO TURN IT UP,

BUT FOR ME TO WORK WITH YOU--

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

I WORK WITH THE DIDDYS,

THE JAYS, THE BEYONCES,

THE WAYNES, THIS ONE, AND

THAT ONE.

IT'S GONNA BE A RISK FOR ME.

LET'S JUST SWEEP THAT

SITUATION UNDER THE RUG,

AND, LIKE--

EVENTUALLY.

LIKE, YOU'RE ABOUT TO MAKE

ME CRY.

IT'S ALL GOOD.

NAH, 'CAUSE IT'S LIKE--

NAH, I DON'T WANT--

PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND.

NO, NO, IT'S COOL.

IT'S COOL.

LIKE, I GOT TO GO

THROUGH ALL THIS.

IT'S JUST ME BY MYSELF.

SO HERE'S--I PUT IN ALL THIS

WORK, AND DON'T NOBODY WANT TO

DO NOTHING.

IT'S MAKING ME MAD.

LIKE, THIS [bleep]--THIS [bleep]

IS FOR REAL.

LIKE, MOTHER[bleep] CAME INTO MY

HOUSE AND STOLE MY STUFF.

I GOT TO REPLACE IT.

NOBODY--

LISTEN, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

LISTEN TO ME.

I'M NOT--I'M--

NO, YOU--

Y'ALL DON'T UNDERSTAND.

I GOT SOMETHING FOR YOU.

ALL RIGHT?

DRY YOUR EYES.

I GOT SOMETHING FOR YOU.

HOLD UP.

YOU KNOW ME.

I HATE TO SEE A WOMAN CRY.

[laughing]

I FIGURE YOU IN HERE--

YOU CAN'T WATCH NO TV [bleep]

BE CRYING BY YOURSELF.

YOU BETTER CRY TO THE TV.

[both laughing]

I WANTED TO BRING A LITTLE

SMILE TO HER FACE JUST TO LET

HER KNOW, IF SHE ACT RIGHT,

SHE COULD BE SMILING FOR A VERY

LONG TIME.

I GOT YOU.

YOU'RE GOOD.

SEE, THAT'S--

I JUST DON'T WANT TO

BE THAT--

YOU AIN'T CRYING.

YOU SMILING.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

'CAUSE I'VE BEEN LOOKED DOWN

A LOT, AND I'M NOT GONNA LET

YOU DOWN.

I REALLY--I REALLY WANT TO

QUARTERBACK AND RUNNING BACK

THIS THING.

LIKE, REALLY, LIKE--

I COACH THE TEAM.

YOU QUARTERBACK.

I'M STARTING QUARTERBACK.

MM-HMM.

WE GONNA GET YOU TRAINED SO YOU

CAN BE READY FOR THE GAME.

WE CAN DO SOME KIND OF

FLORAL DESIGN.

MM-HMM.

LIKE, MAYBE FLOWERS.

MM-HMM, LIKE A VINE.

YEAH.

IT'LL HAVE TO--THAT'S

THE ONLY THING I CAN THINK OF,

LIKE A VINE AND FLOWERS.

REALLY PRETTY TOO.

VERY PRETTY.

SO AFTER THE UNCOMFORTABLE

CONVERSATION I HAD WITH STEVIE

THE OTHER DAY, I DECIDED IT WAS

FINALLY TIME FOR ME TO GET RID

OF THE ONE LAST REMINDER I HAD

OF THIS OLD RELATIONSHIP.

I GOT THE TATTOO.

STEVIE HAD THE TATTOO FIRST.

I NEVER NOTICED THAT.

WOW.

I AIN'T NEVER KNOW THAT.

YEAH.

START THAT THING TODAY.

YOU NEED TO STOP PLAYING

AROUND WITH THE OLD AND BRINGING

IN THE NEW.

I'VE ALREADY STARTED THAT

PROCESS, SO...

I THINK YOU SHOULD GET

SOMETHING THAT'S ABOUT STRENGTH,

ABOUT WHERE YOU'RE AT NOW

TODAY IN YOUR LIFE.

A NEW CHAPTER.

A NEW ARM.

WHAT YOU DOING, NIKKO?

HIGH FIVE, GIRL.

YES.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT STEVIE.

IT'S NOT ABOUT NIKKO.

IT'S NOT ABOUT ANYBODY.

I'M NOT LIVING MY LIFE FOR

ANYBODY ELSE.

IT'S ABOUT ME, MY DAUGHTER,

ME FEELING COMFORTABLE IN MY

SKIN, AND WHERE I WANT TO GO.

LET ME FIND OUT YOU'RE IN

THE STUDIO WITH THIS RATCHET-ASS

METAL-MOUTH ASS-HO.

I'M NOT IN THE STUDIO

WITH HER.

I'M NOT IN THE STUDIO WITH

CHE' MACK.

WHAT'S GOING ON WITH

YOU, DAD?

ALL RIGHT.

YOU GOOD?

I'M REAL, REAL, REAL NERVOUS,

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING, ALL UP

IN HERE TO TALK WITH MY DAD

ABOUT THIS ENGAGEMENT THING,

'CAUSE HE'S, YOU KNOW--

HE'S A PREACHER, YOU KNOW WHAT

I'M SAYING?

LIKE, I KNOW DAD GONNA TELL ME

THE 1,001 TRUTH.

HE'S GONNA BE REAL.

TALK TO ME.

BEEN GOING THROUGH SOME

THINGS, YOU KNOW, UP AND DOWN.

UP AND DOWN.

FEEL LIKE A MERRY-GO-ROUND.

MM-HMM.

YOU KNOW, ALL THE ENGAGEMENT

AND STUFF LIKE THAT.

YOU KNOW, LIKE--

SO WHAT YOU DOING ABOUT IT?

I MEAN, AS OF RIGHT NOW, WE

CALLED IT QUITS.

AND WHY'S THAT?

SHE DON'T TRUST ME...

OKAY.

AND THAT'S 'CAUSE, YOU KNOW,

SHE DONE FOUND TEXT MESSAGES

IN MY PHONE.

OLD TEXT MESSAGES OR

RECENT ONES?

OLD AND RECENT.

COME ON, MAN.

WELL, NOT THIS RECENT,

BUT, LIKE, SINCE WE'VE BEEN

ENGAGED, YOU KNOW WHAT I'M

SAYING, LIKE--

LET ME ASK YOU SOMETHING.

WHY DO YOU HAVE OTHER YOUNG

LADIES' NUMBERS?

I'M NOT GONNA LIE TO YOU.

FOR THE FIRST FOUR,

IT WAS GOING GOOD.

AFTER THAT, SHE SCARED ME, SO

I HIT A COUPLE PEOPLE

JUST TO SEE--

WHAT YOU MEAN "HIT"?

TEXT THEM, YOU KNOW?

LET THEM--YOU KNOW, TRY TO SEE,

YOU KNOW--

SEE IF YOU STILL GOT IT?

YEAH, YOU KNOW.

WHAT KIND OF MESS IS THAT?

NOBODY'S MY MESS.

WHEN A WOMAN PUT IT OUT THERE

THAT SHE DON'T TRUST YOU OR SHE

NOT LIKING YOU AT THE TIME,

YOU GONNA GET SCARED AND DO SOME

TEXTING AND SEE IF YOU STILL

GOT, YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING,

YOUR CLIENTELE.

YOU FEEL ME?

SOMETIME I JUST FEEL LIKE I JUST

NEED A BREAK, JUST--

[exhales deeply]

I ALSO HAVE A TRUST ISSUE WHEN

IT COMES TO A WOMAN, YOU KNOW

WHAT I'M SAYING?

WHY IS THAT?

LOOK AT WHERE I COME FROM.

WHERE DO YOU COME FROM?

COME ON, TELL ME.

WITH MY MOM.

YOU KNOW, SHE DONE PIMPED WOMEN

FOR GOD'S SAKE.

YOU KNOW, I DON'T SAY MY MAMA

PLAYED MEN, YOU FEEL ME?

I DONE SEEN MARRIED WOMEN PLAY

THE MAN, AND THEY CAN LOOK YOU

IN YOUR EYES AND TELL YOU,

YOU KNOW, THEY LOVE YOU AND

EVERYTHING ALL GOOD.

SHE STILL INVOLVED IN

YOUR RELATIONSHIP?

THAT'S THE THING, DAD.

MM-HMM.

I DONE TOLD THIS LADY

A BILLION TIMES, "STAY--GET OFF

AROUND ME.

I'M NOT YOUR BROTHER,

I'M NOT YOUR DADDY,

AND I'M NOT YOUR BOYFRIEND.

I'M YOUR SON.

I DIDN'T HAVE YOU.

YOU HAD ME."

YOU KNOW, YOU GO SOMEWHERE

ELSE AND INVOLVE YOURSELF IN

ANOTHER RELATIONSHIP, YOU MAY

FIND THE SAME ISSUES.

IF THE SAME ISSUE IS IN THAT

RELATIONSHIP THAT YOU JUST GOT

IN, IT MAY BE YOUR MOM

THE PROBLEM.

WHAT YOU DOING OVER THERE

SMILING FOR?

YOU BETTER HAND ME $5 MILLION

RIGHT NOW.

YOU CAN'T TAKE $1 MILLION?

THAT'S NOT ENOUGH.

I SPEND THAT IN ONE DAY.

THAT'S COOL, BUT I'M TALKING

ABOUT MAKING YOU HOT.

[chuckles]

BABY, I'M ALREADY HOT, THOUGH.

YOU SEE HOW WE BE LOOKING IN

THE MAGAZINES AND THIS AND THAT?

I JUST HOPE YOU'RE NOT

PLAYING, YOU KNOW, WITH THE SAME

WHATEVER THE HELL YOU BE ON.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT BE.

YOU JUST BE DOING TOO MUCH.

I JUST--

[groans]

WELL, WHEN I DO TOO MUCH,

IT'S FOR A REASON.

I'M JUST SAYING, THE THINGS

YOU BE DOING, LIKE, JUST--

[groans]

YOU JUST NEED TO KEEP

THE BITCHES AWAY FROM YOU.

EVEN THOUGH THING'S BEEN PRETTY,

PRETTY GOOD WITH ME AND STEVIE,

I STILL HEAR BITCHES COMING

AROUND TOWN TELLING ME THAT

STEVIE BEEN IN THE STUDIO

WITH THEM.

THAT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN.

YOU ONLY NEED TO BE WORKING

WITH ME, STEVIE.

IT'S NO BITCH EVER SUPPOSED TO

COME UP IN MY FACE, STEP UP IN

MY FACE, TELLING ME NOTHING.

WHEN SHORTY WAS WILIN' IN

THE CLUB, DID I LET HER WALK UP

ON YOU?

I WAS WAITING ON YOU TO LET

THAT BITCH GET ANY CLOSER TO ME,

'CAUSE THEN I WOULD NO LONGER

WORRY ABOUT HER.

I WAS GONNA TAKE THAT [bleep]

FROM YOU, AND THIS RATCHET

BITCH--I'M SICK OF THIS HO.

WHY ARE YOU EVEN WORKING WITH

THIS HO?

'CAUSE, FOR REAL, NOW THAT I'M

THINKING ABOUT IT--

IT'S LIKE--

[screeches]

LET ME FINISH.

NOW THAT I'M THINKING ABOUT IT,

TWO LITTLE WHITE BITCHES CAME UP

IN MY FACE AND WAS LIKE,

"STEVIE'S IN THE STUDIO WITH

CHE' MACK."

WHY YOU IN THE STUDIO WITH

THIS HO?

'CAUSE, FOR REAL, YOU AIN'T

FINISHED MY ALBUM YET.

I HAVEN'T BEEN IN THE STUDIO

WITH HER.

LISTEN, THIS WHAT HAPPENED.

I DID SOME GUITAR ON A TRACK,

AND THEY USED IT.

[plays guitar chords]

SO--WAIT, SO YOU'RE GOING IN

THE STUDIO WITH THIS BITCH?

YOU'RE WORKING WITH THIS BITCH?

I DIDN'T GO IN THE STUDIO

WITH HER.

[playing guitar scales]

♪

I'M GONNA TAKE THIS AWAY

FROM YOU.

WAIT A MINUTE.

SO WHY I GOT THESE LITTLE WHITE

BITCHES WALKING UP IN MY FACE

SAYING THAT--

PIECES OF PORCELAIN GONNA

SAY ANYTHING.

I DON'T KNOW.

LET ME FIND OUT YOU IN

THE STUDIO WITH THIS RATCHET-ASS

METAL-MOUTH ASS[bleep].

I'M NOT IN THE STUDIO

WITH HER.

I'M NOT IN THE STUDIO WITH

CHE' MACK.

YOU SO TIRED.

BUT ENOUGH ABOUT THAT.

WHY CAN'T WE TALK ABOUT

ME AND YOU?

COME ON, CHEERS.

WHAT ABOUT US?

TO A HELL OF A TEAM, MAN.

STOP PLAYING.

A TEAM?

YEAH.

WHAT, WE NOT A TEAM NO MORE?

HOW ABOUT CHEERS TO

OUR RELATIONSHIP?

WHAT ARE WE CHEERING TO?

WE'RE CHEERING TO THE TEAM,

TO THE POWER TEAM.

I DON'T LIKE THAT ONE.

HUH?

ARE YOU GONNA GROW UP AND BE

A MAN AND STOP SLANGING [bleep]

AROUND TOWN?

WE NEED TO TOAST TO

THE RELATIONSHIP WITH

THE BUSINESS INVOLVED.

LET'S CHEERS TO BECOMING ONE

WITH EACH OTHER.

HOLD UP.

I DO--

HOLD UP.

HOLD ON BEFORE WE SIP.

I DON'T WANT TO HURT YOU.

I WANT TO BE ONE, JUST ONE.

JUST--I DON'T WANT IT TO BE

YOU AND ME.

IT'S GOT TO BE US.

THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING.

[glasses clink]

WHY IS JOHNNY RAPPING

ABOUT GIRLS?

HE LIKE MEN.

THERE'S SOME CHITTER CHAT,

MIMI, THAT YOUR FRIEND,

K. MICHELLE, IS TALKING TO

YOU ABOUT, THEN YOU CAN--

MAYBE YOU CAN LET ME KNOW.

I COULDN'T THINK OF A BETTER

TIME FOR MY SISTER TO COME DOWN

AND VISIT ME.

WITH EVERYTHING THAT'S GOING ON

WITH THIS STORE, THE ONLY PERSON

I KNOW THAT'S GONNA GIVE IT TO

ME STRAIGHT IS MY SISTER.

I'M JUST TRYING TO MAKE [bleep]

HAPPEN WITH THE STORE OPENING.

I'M SUPPOSED TO BE THE SILENT

PARTNER, BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW

TO BE THAT.

[laughs]

ASKED YOU TO BE SILENT, HUH?

SO I WAS LIKE, "SEE, I NEED

TO BE AT, YOU KNOW,

THE HIRING PROCESS.

I WANT TO BE THERE."

I GO TO THE STORE.

OH, LORD, HERE WE GO.

I GO--HOLD ON.

I WALK IN, AND ALL OF THESE

BITCHES IS MODEL--VIDEO BITCHES.

I'M TRYING TO BE PROFESSIONAL,

AND THEN CHICKS IS GETTING

DISRESPECTFUL BECAUSE I'M

TELLING THEM TO BE QUIET.

ONE CHICK GONNA TELL ME,

"I GOT A DEGREE.

WHAT YOU GOT?"

BITCH, I GOT THE STORE.

WAIT, ONE QUESTION.

WHAT YOU DO WHEN SHE SAID THAT?

I WAS CALM, AND I CALMLY

TOOK MY SHOES OFF.

[laughs]

YOU SEE WHAT I HAD TO

DEAL WITH?

YOU DON'T LIKE TO HEAR IT,

BUT YOU'RE KIND OF ACTING

LIKE MOM A LITTLE BIT

TO THE ASPECT.

YOU'VE SEEN HOW MOTHER CHASED

FATHER AROUND WITH A MACHETE.

YOU'VE SEEN IT.

THAT'S WHAT DREW'S TURNING YOU

INTO A LITTLE BIT.

IT'S TRUE.

I SAW MY MOTHER HAVE A TEMPER

GROWING UP AND DO

SOME CRAZY SH--

AND, TO BE VERY HONEST, I'M VERY

MUCH LIKE HER.

LIKE MOTHER, LIKE DAUGHTER.

HONESTLY, LIKE, WHAT MADE YOU

GO INTO BUSINESS WITH HIM?

WITH YOUR BABY DADDY, YOUR EX.

I WAS THINKING ABOUT LITTLE

DREW AND HIS FUTURE.

YOU DO IT FOR DREWSY, BUT

YOU'RE DOING THINGS FOR DREWSY.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO PARTNER UP

WITH HIM TO DO THINGS

FOR DREWSY.

I MEAN, MY SISTER HAS A LOT

OF GOOD POINTS, BUT WHAT MOST

PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND IS, DREW

HAS A VERY SUCCESSFUL TRACK

RECORD IN BUSINESS, SO THIS IS

SOMETHING I REALLY NEED TO

THINK ABOUT.

SO YOU THINK I SHOULDN'T DO IT,

A BUSINESS.

I DON'T THINK IT'S A GOOD

IDEA HONESTLY, 'CAUSE BUSINESS

AND PLEASURE DOESN'T MIX.

BUSINESS AND FAMILY DOESN'T MIX.

OH.

[laughs]

BUSINESS AND FAMILY.

BUSINESS AND FAMILY,

BUSINESS AND PLEASURE NEVER

WORKS OUT.

SO EVER SINCE NIKKO CAME BACK

INTO MY LIFE, I'VE BEEN ON SUCH

A WINNING STREAK.

I DON'T WANT IT TO END.

I FEEL A CONFIDENCE I HAVEN'T

FELT IN A LONG TIME, SO WHEN HE

ASKED ME TO BE THE STAR OF

HIS VIDEO, I WAS LIKE,

"HELL, YEAH, I'LL DO IT."

OOH.

HELLO.

BLEH.

OH, DON'T "OOH" ME.

YOU LOOK CUTE.

I ASKED K. MICHELLE AND

ARIANE TO COME BY THE VIDEO

SHOOT, YOU KNOW, TO MAKE SURE

MY HAIR AND MY MAKEUP

WAS LOOKING RIGHT.

YOU HEARD THE SONG, THOUGH.

IT'S DEFINITELY--REWIND.

OH, REALLY?

OH, IT'S A GOOD SONG.

YEAH.

OKAY.

I'VE BEEN AROUND HIM.

Y'ALL HAVEN'T, AND HE'S

NOT THAT.

I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH

ANYBODY AND THEIR SEXUALITY,

BUT I DO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH

DOWN-LOW MEN.

I DON'T LIKE FOR PEOPLE TO LIE

ABOUT THEIR SEXUALITY AND LEAD

PEOPLE ON.

ME BEING AROUND HIM ON

A DAY-TO-DAY BASIS--I DON'T GET

ANY OF THAT.

WE ALL HAVE MUTUAL FRIENDS,

MEN THAT, YOU KNOW--

ARE FLAMBOYANTLY GAY.

DO THEY NOT ALSO AGREE WITH

MINE DO.

SORRY.

[chuckles]

100% I DON'T THINK

JOHNNY'S GAY.

I'VE ONLY SEEN JOHNNY WITH

BAD-ASS BITCHES.

ARIANE AND K. MICHELLE ARE

JUMPING TO ALL SORTS OF

CONCLUSIONS ABOUT PEOPLE THEY

I'M FOCUSED.

JUST GET YOUR DIDDY ON.

LET ME JUST PUT THIS

I'M JUST GONNA SAY THIS.

WHATEVER'S BEING SAID ABOUT ME--

WELL, I CARE BECAUSE MY NAME

I'M HEARING GAY TALK.

I HAVE FLASHBACKS WHEN HE'S

YOU'RE HERE FOR THIS.

YO, Y'ALL CAN STEP OUTSIDE

WE AIN'T ATTACKING HER.

I WAS VERY RESPECTFUL TO HER.

HER ASS GOT A MIND OF ITS OWN.

SO [bleep] WHAT?

ALL I HEAR EVERY TIME

THE DOOR OPENS IS YELLING

AND SCREAMING.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON.

MIMI IS--

NIKKO.

WHERE'S MIMI AT?

BRING HER IN HERE.

NIKKO, YOU KNOW Y'ALL

ATTACKED HER.

I DIDN'T ATTACK.

WHEN THEY SAID, "CUT,"

I RUN BACK INSIDE, AND I SEE K.

BUT I SEE ARIANE AND NIKKO

GOING AT IT.

I HAD TO SHUT IT DOWN AT

THAT POINT.

ANYBODY'S GOT SOME [bleep]

BOTTOM LINE IS THIS:

IF IT'S NOT ABOUT K. MICHELLE,

SHE HAS TO MAKE IT ABOUT HER.

YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE

A [bleep] MAN.

I DON'T WANT ONE LIKE YOURS.

THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING.
