[Jasmine] Is Rasheeda available, by any chance?

I just wanted to finally sit down

and hash things out with her.

Well, I don't know if that's a good idea.

[Shooter] This [bleep] I did in the streets,

I did it so he wouldn't have to go through what I went through.

And I know he didn't live like that.

So for him to lose his life to the gun, man.

That [bleep] hurts, man.

I'm thankful for everybody's help, man.

My boys knew how hard I'd been struggling,

dealing with this [bleep],

so they all came together

and tried to uplift me.

I wanna thank the dear God, man.

For sustaining me

when I almost lost my mind, man.

We're gonna be here for you.

Yeah, I appreciate that, man.

I appreciate the love, I appreciate that

y'all doing what y'all doing for me, man.

When I heard Shooter's son got shot,

my heart really broke for him.

This gun violence is out of control.

Black children and black men are out here dying every day,

for nothing.

This makes me feel like I need to be more involved

in Kannon's life to make sure he don't get caught up

in none of these kind of situations.

The last conversation I had with him, bro, like, shawty called me.

My last words with him was, "All right, y'all, then go ahead on.

Be safe, man. Call me tomorrow or something."

And that was it.

He was dealing with a guy. Him and a guy got into it.

About something small-- $35, bro.

The boy shot my son in the neck.

Damn.

Shot him four times, bro.

The sad thing about it, bruh,

it just happen way too often.

Yeah, it do, man.

[K. Botchey] You know what I'm saying?

That [bleep] happen way too often.

[Tabius] Yo, Shooter's a good dude.

I been knowing him throughout the industry,

and my heart really goes out to him right now, man.

It's a shame when anyone is lost to gun violence.

But when it's a young kid with a promising future,

man, it's crazy out here.

T, what's up, baby? Chillin', man.

My boy. Got my dog Bleu with me.

[Tabius] Bleu DaVinci, he living in Miami.

But he came up in Atlanta with BMF,

with Big Meech and the rest of the crew.

He tight with Shooter, so he come to show his respect, too.

Well, y'all know I just lost a son, man.

We'll be touching on that and black-on-black crime

in the community, man.

How we gonna stop this [bleep], man?

These young ones, nobody's really teaching them

or culturing them up in the right way.

They see what they see on TV, they what they hear in these rap songs,

and they gonna take it for face value and wanna live it out.

You know, with the whole, like, the BMF,

that whole era with so many youngsters

that come up these days, that look at that,

"Ah, the cars, the money." That's all they see.

I come back from prison with a whole new mindset.

These kind of incidences right here,

that got me ready to jump out there and talk to the kids.

The more than we put out there, bruh,

I feel like the better off we'll be.

'Cause it's only gonna get worse.

Are the youngers listening to us?

I don't think they respect that OG thing no more.

It seem like they respect the pills, the drinking,

the wildin', the guns.

At one point in time,

I was always hoping to make it to 18.

Being in the streets, that's why I got out.

We ain't got to fight fire with fire.

You kill-- you kill hate with love, brother.

And also, going through that,

y'all already know me and my wife

is having our differences, man.

Like, divorce is-- is near.

The hardest [bleep] ever was

not to be there during the time that I really needed--

When you needed her most. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

No, I mean, after the funeral, man, like...

I ain't heard from her since, bro.

I been strong for the rest of my kids, man,

but who the [bleep] gonna be strong for me

when I need somebody, man?

Me and Sierra been going through...

what we been going through.

But at the end of the day, man, it's supposed to be a family.

I was expecting her to show

way more love and support than she showed.

Other than showing up at the funeral,

she ain't been down at all.

And that [bleep] hurts, man.

I know you going through your mourning.

Everybody mourns in their different way.

But one thing I do know.

You got a band of brothers around you, brother.

And I respect that. I love that, man.

I appreciate y'all, man.

We gonna elevate you to the utmost.

That love, baby.

All right, man, enough said.

Let's go get something to drink, man.

[Tommie] I was living a peaceful life--

back on track with my mom, no charges against me.

And then all of sudden, all hell breaks loose.

What's up, Ma?

[Samantha] Hey.

[Tommie] My mom wanted to meet up,

and I agreed because I'm sorry that she got caught up

in the middle of me and Versace's fight.

I know she had good intentions.

I just want to apologize for whatever the other night.

Like, I didn't mean to-- you know what I'm saying?

Me, too, man.

I am so disappointed in the way

Tommie and Versace's get-together went the other night.

Tommie does a lot of wonderful things for me and my family.

But she's stubborn, she's hot-headed.

And Versace definitely didn't deserve

to get hot chocolate thrown at her.

Actually, I've been sitting down with Versace.

My stomach hurt.

Can we talk about this?

What's going on now, Ma?

You got some new plans, I'm sure.

I do! You know I'm always gonna have a plan for y'all, man.

I want y'all to get along. I want y'all to sit down

with no fighting, no "swings" attached.

I'm not gonna move forward with anybody, any rodents.

We know that you wrote a statement to the police,

and that's how I got battery charges.

Like, how can I sit there and be like, "It's all over,"

if you won't even own up to what you done in the first place.

I know how you feel-- An apology is due for me.

And I want her to apologize to you.

You might just sweep [bleep] under the rug

and just move forward-- I'm not gonna do that.

It's not that I want to sweep [bleep] under the rug,

I just wanna get things to a-- a head, like--

This is how: you need to talk to Versace and tell her--

I'm going to, but can me and you agree

that you will at least soften up a little bit

so that you'll be willing to accept an apology?

I thought I was pretty soft, like, in there.

Okay, I'm asking you now.

Are you gonna be willing to accept an apology from her?

Yeah, I'll accept an apology if she give me a...

Okay. ...genuine apology.

Thank you so much.

One more thing.

I want a family portrait.

What is this, man? Don't look so painful!

Everybody's out of jail, nobody's dead.

Thank you, Lord.

Yeah.

All we need is you.

Like, everybody else is willing.

Everybody's ready.

Then y'all could crop me in, too,

No, man. Come on, man. Come on.

[Kirk] The past year has been filled with difficult

First, telling my wife about Jasmine,

and then down to telling the kids that I'm Kannon's father.

None of this has been easy.

But today's conversation might be the one

I just dreaded the most.

Today, I'm sitting down for a meeting

that I wish I didn't have to have.

I'm definitely stressed out, but I'm mad at myself

for getting myself in this situation in the first place.

♪♪

How are you?

Kirk asked me to meet him at his attorney's office

because we only speak through our lawyers.

And I'm guessing it's because he has an issue

with me going to Pressed.

But I have some questions of my own for Kirk,

and I plan to get some answers today.

It's been a little minute.

How long has it been? Like, over a year

since I last seen you?

Yeah.

Kannon's about to be two.

Why you feel like you haven't seen him yet?

All the last year,

it was like a war zone against me.

That people were speaking out, so...

No, I get all that, but from the time

that you found out that Kannon is your son--

That's why I put the child support in place

to make sure, financially, you guys can...

live the way you need to live.

But do you feel like that's enough?

Like, you don't feel like

you need to be playing a role?

I mean, first of-- 'cause--

Well, one thing about me,

I'm definitely gonna play a role.

I just don't wanna have outside issues.

Like, I'm not gonna be arguing with dudes

and girls about-- I'm just not gon' do that.

Well, for the record,

I'm no longer with Keanna or Rod.

There was a lot of jealousy in that relationship.

It was time for me to move on.

and make sure that Kannon grows up

in a healthy and happy environment.

One that hopefully includes his dad and, in time,

his siblings, too.

Do his brothers and sisters know

that he is their brother?

Of course they know.

How do they feel about it?

Well, you know how Kelsey feel, right?

I know how Kelsey feels. Oh, okay.

You know, it's an awkward situation.

But, at the same time,

of course they want to meet they brother.

I'm just trying to get to the point where...

that can happen.

Keep in mind, you can't do certain things.

Pop up at Pressed is a hurtful thing for her.

It's a embarrassing thing.

I mean, the last thing I wanted to do was

make anybody feel some type of way.

I think that I more so just wanted to

finally get a chance to talk to her in person.

You know, I feel like she deserves an apology in person.

I think timing is everything.

I don't think rushing it makes it any better.

You just need to let me kind of facilitate that.

But I got a lot of repairing to do inside my household still.

[Kirk] I thought I'd be angrier when I seen Jasmine.

But it seems like she's coming from a good place

and only looking out for Kannon's interests,

and I can respect that.

It's been a while since I seen Kannon,

but I can't deny he's my son, too.

And regardless how he cames about,

he does deserve the best possible life.

So Kannon, he's good.

Yeah, he's getting big.

Pictures, videos? You have any?

Yeah, I got a video. You wanna see one?

Yeah, that'd be cool.

[Kannon cooing and laughing]

[Kirk chuckles] Yeah, he's a little handsome guy.

He has gotten big.

Isn't he so handsome?

Yeah... yeah.

I did that. Yeah.

Got a little...

picnic in the living room for you.

I had no idea you was this romantic.

Like, I love it.

Yeah, I do a little serenading.

You know what I mean? Wow.

When Sean and I started our "situation-ship,"

I didn't know what to expect.

But it turns out that he's really romantic.

It's a welcome change from my last few relationships.

I heard about the funeral.

Yeah, I wanted to be there to support Sierra

'cause she's going through so much with Shooter.

You know, whenever I hear about a funeral,

you know, it all just takes me back Yeah.

to dealing with my mom.

What happened? Um... ahem.

I lost my mom to cancer.

I'm so sorry.

Were you close to your mom?

Oh, yeah. I got good parents.

Like, I came from a good family.

So I thought-- Wow, so your mom and dad,

they've always been together.

Yeah, yeah. Oh, that's so dope.

Because I wasn't fortunate to have both my parents.

My dad left my mom when I was two.

And me and my dad didn't have no relationship.

"Your dad had a heart attack.

You gotta come now!" I'm like, "What?"

Just, out of nowhere?

Out of nowhere!

Wow. Lucky thing,

he, you know, made it through.

But the doctor came and spoke to me,

and he said, "Your dad has cancer."

[Karlie] My dad decided to one day

up and move to Florida by himself.

All of a sudden, he got sick.

And he is looking for me to take care of him,

but I barely know my dad.

Now, how is it that God placed me

to take care of my dad, and he did nothing for me?

But you can't look at it like that.

Even though you didn't grow up with your dad...

Mm-hmm. ...that's still your dad.

Yeah, it is. You know?

And maybe God is wanting you

to experience this time with your dad

to build a relationship with your father.

So, you know what?

I think what you should do...

Mm-hmm.

...is I think you should, you know,

fly him to Atlanta.

I know that's probably a lot,

but the fact that he's in the hospital,

he's just been diagnosed with cancer,

he's had a heart attack, and he's by himself.

You know what I'm saying?

It was already [bleep] up. Yeah.

I didn't think about it like that.

Yeah.He's probably depressed.

He probably is. You're the first person

I'm the first person?

Bringing my dad to Atlanta

What's up with you and Sierra?

Ooh... Ah, you know.

Whew. The what?

Divorce is near.

Might as well say it. It's how I'm feeling.

No, ain't no "might as well," 'cause--

Your feelings can change tomorrow.

Them papers get served, them papers get served.

I done been through it. I'm Team Shooter all day long.

If you feel like she has moved on,

she ignore you or doing whatever,

you know, might be time for you to have a distraction.

What you mean?

Hell you meant with distractions?

All I'm saying is this.

Do you think she out there doing her?

Course. So why you ain't doing you?

I don't know.

Sierra and I used to be cool,

but my loyalty lies with Shooter,

and I don't care what they got going on in their marriage.

For her to abandon him in his time of need is disgusting.

You don't turn your back on a man who just lost his child.

If that's kind of woman that she is,

then maybe Shooter is better off without her.

I want you to be happy.

There's somebody I think you might like.

But what if it confuses him even more?

Especially at this time right now.

Everything he going through in his life,

and you bring somebody new, a "distraction."

Why try to block his blessings,

and he could find someone

that he actually gets that support--

That's rolling the dice. It might not be a blessing.

Her thing was, "Can we make it to where

"he can meet his brothers and sisters,

"and can I get to talk to Rasheeda?

I just want her to know I'm sorry for the stuff I did."

I mean, the thing about it is,

place over there, and I'm cool.

As far as you and Kannon, yeah, I mean, you going through something,

You're an amazing dad.

And you need to be an amazing dad to him.

While I'm personally not ready

to have a relationship with Kannon,

I do want Kirk to be a great father to his child.

And if the kids decide they want to have a relationship

with their new brother, I would never stand in the way of that.

It's only fair.

Due to your situation,

don't think I'm giving you no goddamn.

No, I'm not. But I'm speaking to you

as just being 100 with you

on me knowing you as a friend.

Right. And the type of person that you are.

And I greatly appreciate that.

I'm definitely grateful for Rasheeda's support

in me and Kannon's relationship,

both on a personal level and as a manager.

is gonna make us some good money.

in the family photo, that's it.

Why you just can't do that?

Who will be the main speaker?

It's not about you, because talking to you

will get me totally irate right now.

Okay. Fine. All right.

What's up?

I just feel, as a family, we should all like coexist.

Like what is-- It's just turning into a lot.

Like I love you as a sister and I feel like,

I apologize about what happened.

But I feel like you should apologize as well.

Oh, no, I'm not gonna ever do that,

because I have done... Okay, well, then

I don't feel like we should... do this.

Good! Good. Like we don't.

I'm not kissin' no bitch ass.

Why are you still here? Get out.

No, bitch!

[overlapping shouting]

Please calm your [bleep], ho.

[overlapping shouting]

I don't [bleep] with you, and I never will!

Dirty bitch!

[overlapping shouting]

Bitch, you can't even wash your ass... bitch!

You got no money, bitch!

All I wanted was a genuine apology,

but the [bleep] that she put me through!

But she's not even woman enough to do that.

She wants to act like a mother[bleep] wolf.

But she already know I'm a mother[bleep] lion,

and I will shred that bitch.

I went around with you, ho!

You will never. Shut the [bleep] up.

You about to piss me off, too, bitch.

You about to piss me the [bleep] off, bitch.

Who the [bleep] you think you talking to, bitch?

[overlapping shouting]

Girl, bring your mother[bleep] little ugly ass!

I don't give not one [bleep], bitch.

Don't ever [bleep] play with me, bitch.

[overlapping shouting]

You don't give a [bleep] about your kids.

What are you talking about? [bleep] you, ho.

Keep that same energy, ho!

[bleep] that bitch.

This some weak, weird-ass [bleep].

It's okay, it's over with. I swear to God.

And I don't know why you try to beg me

to come to your mom...

What was the point in that?

To do a family [bleep] photo.

You calm down, we can talk about it, okay, because...

I don't want to talk about [bleep]

'cause I'll beat their ho ass again!

Everybody's looking like, what in the hell,

what kind of family is this?

The whole energy should've been about love today.

I mean, it's just no words to explain it.

Like we cannot keep trying to reconcile with you.

You are tearing this family apart.

Bitch, I raised your daughter for five [bleep] years, bitch!

The [bleep] you doing for me?

You ain't sending out a tampon

or nothing for her.

Not a goddamn food stamp or nothing!

I've forgiven my mom for everything we went through.

I bought her a car, I got her a place,

I even took care of my siblings.

You know, I kinda held down my whole family.

And it's just like, this is the thanks I get?

I don't need, you know, my mother's relationship anymore.

I'm just good.

Stay the [bleep], come around me.

[bleep] [bleep].

[bleep] goofy-ass [bleep].

Puttin' that [bleep] on. [bleep], get off.

Now, when Botchey's not out here saving the world,

he's doing things like hosting some of the biggest events.

Matter of fact, tonight he's hosting

a performance for Rick Ross's new artist, Just Brittany.

Brittany and Keely are friends too, so you know,

she came out to support her. Everything's good.

[cheering and applause]

[Yung Joc] Botchey has asked me to entertain this girl Keely

because, apparently she don't always act right

when she comes to these events, so I'm "bae sitting" tonight.

You didn't heard that word before, have you?

"Bae sitting."

[Yung Joc] You stepped out tonight.

Hey... I had to.

You know, I don't even come to,

you know, a lot of Botchey's events and stuff.

But I'm back.

I'm 100% in Atlanta and...

I'm not 100% happy with the things

that I've been seeing.

Look at, look at this.

I understand that my man is a promoter

and there's gonna be females around.

And I'm okay with that.

He can have a million thoties around in his section,

but I do have a problem when the lines are getting crossed

and the boundaries are getting blurred.

He gotta clean up his act.

He a promoter!

He has no business letting girls put numbers in his phone.

We haven't been in the same city for about a year,

but I'm back now.

And if we're gonna make this relationship work,

he's gonna need to make some adjustments.

What you got going on?

I'm just working my move out here.

You always working.

You were there at the community event.

I was glad you got Shooter to come out.

Shooter and I are very close. That's like family.

He's family with my family.

The fact that I heard that Sierra

was not there for Shooter,

my heart breaks for him.

Like he did what he did, he's apologized.

But at the end of the day, when tragedy calls,

you do what you gotta do to take care of home.

And I feel like she didn't do that.

You know, so I hooked my girl Dija with Shooter...

Oh. ...so that he would be able to get his mind off of Sierra.

He's going through more than just Sierra.

The man just lost his son.

Now, I understand that Keely wants to do her best

to make Shooter happy, but honestly, man,

I don't think nothing gonna make Shooter happy right now.

Keely trying to hook Shooter up with her homegirl.

It's just gonna create extra drama

that no one needs right now, you know what I mean?

But judging by the way that Keely's going in on her man

just for doing his job,

seems like she's very familiar with the drama.

Joc. Hi, boy.

What's up, man? Well, well, well...

What's up?

How are you? I'm good. What's up?

You looking like a little somethin'.

I am. I'll see you after the club.

Oh, okay. What's up, big fella?

You sure you're not gonna see them after the club?

Who? Them behind us.

Well, I don't know what you talking about.

You don't know what I'm talking about?

No, I was working.

They was all in your phone, they was all over you

popping bottles and taking shots.

Let's talk about it.I'm--

Look, let me explain something to you.

This why I don't invite you out to places.

No, it's not about me being invited.

I don't need an invitation.

You over here posting with a bitch.

I'ma turn up on your mother[bleep].

I don't care. I like all that.

Yeah, I bet you do love it. Ooh, ooh...

Yo, get the [bleep] out of here with that [bleep]...

Had the [bleep] energy when we get to the house.

I'ma have that same energy every mother[bleep] time

you think that you finna disrespect me.

'Cause I'm not gonna tolerate disrespect from you

or nobody in this bitch. So you gonna shut the whole club down.

I will shut the mother[bleep] down, shut it down.

You don't want nobody have a good time.

No, [bleep] it.

Now, how rude is that? Don't give a [bleep].

How rude is that? Don't give a [bleep].

Don't play with me.

Kick your feet up if you want, [bleep],

because I don't have to sit here

and I don't have to talk to you.

You better realize who the [bleep] you're dealing with.

Well, I'll see you when I get to the house.

You better figure out what house you going to

because you ain't coming to mine. God bless your heart.

Get the [bleep] outta here.

[Yung Joc] Keely! Why you do that?!

[bleep] you, [bleep].

But you good, though, 'cause when she threw that [bleep]...

[mimics whooshing] See, 'cause when you got the blood of Jesus on,

it just-- it just bounce, though.

I'm getting mail, all this paperwork.

And it says I'm the power of attorney of everything.

What is going on? Okay, that's serious.

Enchiladas, she's like,

[whiny voice] I'm the First Lady of Danger Zone.

You talking about Estelita?

I don't know how to pronounce her name. Agh!

♪♪

[Karlie] Dad, let me take your blood pressure.

I'm not used to doing this, so...

All right, just put it on my left arm.

Shawne really got me thinking about moving my dad to Atlanta

so that I can take care of him.

My dad is proud of being independent

and he's always resisted the idea of moving to Atlanta.

But I'm glad I could convince him to come visit me.

All right, oh... [doorbell chiming]

That's Katrina.

So I have two older sisters.

We all have the same dad, but we all have different moms.

My dad, he wasn't really present in any of our lives.

But none of us really bothered to fix that

until we got grown.

Hey!

Hi, Aunt Karlie.

Hi, baby. Give me a hug.

My oldest sister Sandra lives in New York,

but we don't talk very often.

I'm closer to my other sister Katrina,

and I asked her to come over so I could fill her in

with everything that's going on with my dad.

Hopefully she'll pitch in, do something.

I need some help here.

I hear it's your birthday, man. How old are you?

[boy] Nine.

Now that we've said our hellos to Grandpa,

we're gonna go upstairs and go play, right?

Yeah. Okay, have fun.

[Katrina] So what's up?

You know, so you know, he had the heart attack. Right.

And then the doctor put a defibrillator in his heart.

Also have a stent.

Then he has cancer.

That, too. And I'm a little concerned

the fact that he's by his self, that you're by yourself, Dad.

Why? Nobody lives in Florida with you.

And anything could happen.

Just like when you had the heart attack,

you were laid out.

I've been with this almost eight months now.

But still I'm uncomfortable with the fact

that you're by yourself. Me too.

And so that's something we need to talk about.

Well, let me take you upstairs so you can get some rest.

[Karlie] My dad keeps telling me he's fine.

But then, when I talk to his doctors,

they're like, it's bad!

I'm gonna end up having to make some major decisions

about my dad's health,

and I just don't know if I can do it by myself.

So one day I literally like get in the mail

all this paperwork.

And it says I'm the power of attorney of everything.

Here's his living will and testament.

I'm like... what is going on?

Okay, that's serious.

But why he made me the power of attorney, not you?

[laughs]Or Sandra?

'Cause you're the youngest one.

And I have a whole bunch of stuff on my plate.

And I know you do, too!

I'm not the leader, I am the helper.

So why-- How did I become the leader?

Because that's you.

That's your gift in life.

But how does he know that I'm the leader?

Because he never was there for me.

He never took care of me.

No, I know Dad wasn't there all the time,

but that's our Christian obligation.

Literally all day long I get a doctor calling me

asking me to make major decisions that I don't--

Never-- This is my first go-round.

I've never done this before.

What if I change my number? Then what's gonna happen?

Who, who the doctors gonna call?

They're gonna have to call Jesus.

No, I wouldn't leave Dad high and dry like that.

Yeah, "honor thy mother and thy father."

♪♪

Stevie has been reaching out to me to do some work,

and my music has been my top priority.

But I still feel a lot upset about how I got ambushed

by Estelita and Erica.

Mind your business at my rehearsal.

So I'm not sure if working with him is the right move.

So I reached out to the one person who I know

can give me some great advice.

[mimics fanfare] Hey!

How you doing? How are you?

Good. You lookin' beautiful.

You too.

Girl, I gotta get these nails done.

I got two of 'em broke.

I met Keely through my manager

who told me that, you know, she's somebody

that will look after me when I'm in Atlanta.

We just been cool ever since.

Congrats on the performance. You did really, really good.

I'm so proud of you.

Thank you for putting it together.

Absolutely. No problem.

You know, Atlanta is all in who you know

and how you move out here.

Well, my whole point of moving out here

is to follow my dreams.

And you know, Ross is out here.

Right.The label is out here.

How's that going with Ross?

Everything is going good.Good.

You know, I got the single deal.

It might be looking like something more

than a single deal. Nice. Nice.

I'm just ready to put the music out for the people.

So, you know, Stevie and I, we have this record,

and it's called "Shoulda Been Yours."

It's that, you know, Mary J. Blige feel,

real feel-good, real music.Right.

That's what he does. He does the best.

Right, he's great at this. Yeah, right.

So, the other day, I was rehearsing.

He was kinda coaching me or whatever.

And then, all of a sudden,

Enchiladas and Esperelda had walked in.

Wait, what? Who was that?

Erica Mena.Okay.

And you talking about Estelita?

I don't know how to pronounce her name. Agh!

Estelita, that is his artist too, correct?

I mean, I believe so.

But anyways, they walked into the set,

and so, Enchiladas, she's like,

[whiny voice] I'm the First Lady of Danger Zone.

And this and that. And he tells her, you know,

that he's working with me now.

She wanted to see more out of Stevie

when it comes to management.

She's like looking at you

like you're taking away from her? Basically.

He was like, well, maybe Brit can like help you out.Oh, no.

I think that kinda like started a little something.

I mean, Erica started getting into it.

She tried to start talking about my shoes and my clothes.

They be trying to come for me like a cheap bitch or something.

She probably felt threatened

and there's something else going on

that we don't know about that triggered that.

And that's it.

But that's not my problem, though.

I'm just not trying to get into a situation

to where it's for the love of Stevie

because I'm not on that.

My goal is to have a platinum plaque.

He got a couple more on his wall.Right.

I need one that say "Just Brittany."

Right."Produced by Stevie J."

Bitch, I ain't never had to sleep with nobody for anything.

And I take care of my own [bleep],

and if I want a man to have my time,

then I will give it to him.

And it's not on no mother[bleep] business [bleep],

it will definitely be personal.

Did Stevie offer you some type of contract?

First of all, Stevie is not my manager.

One thing that I really hate is,

when you start working with somebody,

they want to start feeling like you have to sign to them,

like... So was he pressing you to sign?

I mean, he sent me some paperwork or whatever,

and I forwarded it to my lawyer.

Then he needs to try to bring everybody together

so that they understand, because there's all kinda labelmates,

you know, people that get managed by multiple people.

There shouldn't be beef within the company.

Let me find out. I need to talk to Stevie

about coming over to Danger Zone

and being a project manager for you.

Wouldn't that be a great idea?

No, I absolutely will.

I've never worked with Stevie directly,

but we've both been in the industry forever.

He makes great music.

But sometimes he puts his artists in bad situations.

And I really don't want to see my girl go through that.

I don't like stepping on people's toes.

I will absolutely talk to Stevie and see if

that's something that maybe we can partner on.

[Just Brittany] Stevie is very talented,

and we produced a wonderful song together.

But then he start talking about that he want to manage me

and sign me to Danger Zone.

And I'm just like, I'm not with the drama at all.

So Stevie invited me to a mixer, and I declined.

Because I just want to stay up out the drama.

No. But only if you... You gonna go with me?

If you go with me, then I'll go. Listen, let me tell you something.

We'll go to the mixer, and if drama comes,

then [bleep] it, we face that [bleep].

That ain't no [bleep] problem. I ain't scared of nothing.

I gotta get my "Freakum Dress" together.

You know what I'm saying?

'Cause that bitch better not come for my shoes.

I'm gonna have to kick a ho. Nah, I'm just playing.

[laughing]

And it begins! [chuckles]
