Just got off the phone with Monica.

674
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:43,378
Your sample didn't clear.

675
00:32:44,462 --> 00:32:45,964
Which sample?

676
00:32:46,047 --> 00:32:47,340
The Deniece Williams one.

677
00:32:48,841 --> 00:32:50,468
(SCOFFS) Yeah.

678
00:32:50,551 --> 00:32:52,553
Yo, you fuckin' with me.

679
00:32:52,637 --> 00:32:54,722
Yo, that's the entire--
That's the entire single.

680
00:32:54,806 --> 00:32:57,725
Yeah, I know. I know.
And they want you to rerecord it.

681
00:32:59,268 --> 00:33:03,815
Yo, that's-- that's the reason
why all these people out here, man.

682
00:33:03,898 --> 00:33:05,984
For that single, for that version.

683
00:33:06,067 --> 00:33:09,153
That's the version they heard.
That's the only reason why they know me.

684
00:33:09,237 --> 00:33:10,363
I know, Ra.

685
00:33:10,446 --> 00:33:11,990
It's fucked up, Ra,
but somebody fucked up.

686
00:33:12,073 --> 00:33:14,200
But right now,
we gotta collect these records.

687
00:33:14,283 --> 00:33:15,785
We can't sell this shit anymore.

688
00:33:15,868 --> 00:33:17,495
Look, grab the Rakeem records
and take them to the back.

689
00:33:17,578 --> 00:33:19,205
Yo, how the fuck
are we even supposed to have

690
00:33:19,288 --> 00:33:22,792
a record signing without records, yo?

691
00:33:22,875 --> 00:33:24,293
Ah, shit.

692
00:33:24,377 --> 00:33:26,796
This is what you needed?

693
00:33:26,879 --> 00:33:28,756
Yo, for real, Dre?

694
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:30,466
For real?

695
00:33:30,550 --> 00:33:32,176
"We love you, Rakim"?

696
00:33:32,260 --> 00:33:33,594
Yo, this is fucking amateur hour.

697
00:33:33,678 --> 00:33:34,887
-Yo, fuck this.
-Look, just sign--

698
00:33:34,971 --> 00:33:36,431
just sign the posters and stickers.

699
00:33:36,514 --> 00:33:37,557
Take pictures.

700
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:38,725
-Yo.
-Give away the shirts.

701
00:33:38,808 --> 00:33:41,811
They spelled my fucking name wrong.
I'm not passing them motherfuckers out.

702
00:33:41,894 --> 00:33:44,897
No, this is bullshit. It's bullshit.
I know it is. It's bullshit.

703
00:33:44,981 --> 00:33:47,442
Right? We know this.

704
00:33:47,525 --> 00:33:50,278
Okay, you gonna get to rerecord it.

705
00:33:50,361 --> 00:33:53,072
New song, new beat.

706
00:33:53,156 --> 00:33:54,824
And it's gonna be just as dope.

707
00:33:56,034 --> 00:33:57,994
Then we're gonna shoot a video for it.

708
00:34:01,247 --> 00:34:04,042
-They want to shoot a video?
-Yeah.

709
00:34:04,125 --> 00:34:06,794
I just got off the phone with Monica.
That's what she told me.

710
00:34:06,878 --> 00:34:10,214
All right, they just
put us out a budget for you

711
00:34:11,215 --> 00:34:13,009
for a music video.

712
00:34:13,384 --> 00:34:14,635
For you.

713
00:34:16,596 --> 00:34:18,639
All right, and what about my uncle?

714
00:34:18,723 --> 00:34:19,807
Comin'.

715
00:34:20,558 --> 00:34:23,895
I mean, if they approve the video,
they gotta believe in you.

716
00:34:26,814 --> 00:34:28,232
All right.

717
00:34:28,900 --> 00:34:32,153
They know I have some ideas.
You know that.

718
00:34:32,236 --> 00:34:34,655
Want to make it all cinematic and shit.

719
00:34:35,656 --> 00:34:37,617
We can talk about that, but right now,

720
00:34:38,242 --> 00:34:43,206
I just need you to focus on signing those.

721
00:34:43,289 --> 00:34:45,458
All right, look, I'm telling
you, look, it's not gonna be--

722
00:34:45,541 --> 00:34:49,128
it's--it's gonna be in a couple of months
a cakewalk, all right, small potatoes,

723
00:34:49,212 --> 00:34:51,506
that's how you're gonna see it.

724
00:34:51,589 --> 00:34:55,009
All right, just go in here,
sit down, suck it up.

725
00:34:55,093 --> 00:34:57,386
I mean, you wanted to see the fans, right?

726
00:35:01,724 --> 00:35:03,184
All right, man.

727
00:35:03,267 --> 00:35:04,852
Yo, whatever.

728
00:35:04,936 --> 00:35:07,897
Just fucking put those
corny-ass shirts away,

729
00:35:07,980 --> 00:35:12,860
and we can fucking just leave out
the stickers and the posters-- whatever.

730
00:35:12,944 --> 00:35:15,279
Look, just make the fans happy.

731
00:35:16,614 --> 00:35:17,698
Relax.

Yo, I can hook you up if you want me to.

743
00:36:30,313 --> 00:36:31,355
No, no, I'm all right.

-Are you sure?
-Mm-hmm.

How's everything going with you and Nia?

747
00:36:38,237 --> 00:36:41,657
She don't want nothing to do
with me right now.

Well, at least I got that carpet
cleaning shit to keep me busy.

that De La Soul joint, right?

thought they was coming out
with a new album.

I was producing my own shit.

I was talking about.

and where I come from, yo.

It's so classic and cinematic.

You're gonna look great.

All right, I'm gonna steal
Rakeem for a second.

-Sure.

00:40:22,336 --> 00:40:26,132
We haven't talked since you left.
How was the tour? Did you have fun?

835
00:40:26,215 --> 00:40:28,008
It was a'ight.

836
00:40:28,092 --> 00:40:29,677
I mean, I think we rocked it.

837
00:40:30,886 --> 00:40:34,014
That Carolina record signing, though,
that shit was fucked up.

838
00:40:34,098 --> 00:40:35,391
Yeah, I know.

839
00:40:35,474 --> 00:40:38,352
Okay, and it's our bad,
and we take full responsibility,

840
00:40:38,436 --> 00:40:41,897
but, honestly,
I think the new version's better.

841
00:40:43,524 --> 00:40:45,651
Oh, you don't look convinced.

842
00:40:45,734 --> 00:40:48,487
Yeah, well, if y'all like it...
Look, all I'm saying is,

843
00:40:49,405 --> 00:40:51,031
this ain't my vibe, man.

844
00:40:51,782 --> 00:40:53,367
I do have some ideas for the video--

845
00:40:53,451 --> 00:40:56,412
Okay, okay, look, I get your skepticism.

846
00:40:56,495 --> 00:40:58,747
I know you're asking yourself, I mean,

847
00:40:58,831 --> 00:41:02,168
"What does this White woman know
about hip-hop anyway," am I right?

848
00:41:02,877 --> 00:41:04,336
I didn't say all that.

849
00:41:05,212 --> 00:41:06,213
It's okay.

850
00:41:07,173 --> 00:41:10,426
But we do happen to know
what works and what sells.

851
00:41:11,343 --> 00:41:14,138
All right, when I started at Tommy Boy,
I was the only employee.

852
00:41:14,221 --> 00:41:16,557
In fact, I don't even think
we were a label yet.

853
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,310
It was just me and Tom
in a cramped apartment.

854
00:41:19,393 --> 00:41:23,647
But I had an eye and ear for talent
and Tom believed in me,

855
00:41:23,731 --> 00:41:27,026
and ten years later,
look at our track record.

856
00:41:27,109 --> 00:41:31,155
I had a hand in every single one of
those videos that we did for our artists.

857
00:41:31,238 --> 00:41:33,324
You remember <i>Ladies First,</i> right?

858
00:41:33,407 --> 00:41:35,284
Yeah. Latifah's dope.

859
00:41:35,367 --> 00:41:37,244
Right, okay, so you remember
those clips of South Africa

860
00:41:37,328 --> 00:41:39,038
and the struggle to end apartheid?

861
00:41:39,121 --> 00:41:41,040
Those were controversial,
and they were debated.

862
00:41:41,123 --> 00:41:44,210
But I fought for those because we believe

863
00:41:44,293 --> 00:41:46,962
that all of our videos
should represent our artists,

864
00:41:47,046 --> 00:41:50,466
whether it's, I don't know,
<i>Me Myself and I</i> or <i>The Humpty Dance.</i>

865
00:41:50,549 --> 00:41:51,634
(SCOFFS)

866
00:41:51,717 --> 00:41:53,344
Shit.

867
00:41:53,427 --> 00:41:55,387
Y'all got me looking
like Humpty on my shit.

868
00:41:55,471 --> 00:41:57,598
I don't see it that way.

869
00:41:57,681 --> 00:42:00,893
No, I think it's fun
and it shows your personality.

870
00:42:00,976 --> 00:42:02,853
Listen, Rakeem, you have a style

871
00:42:02,937 --> 00:42:05,314
that's not like any other artist
that we have on our roster,

872
00:42:05,397 --> 00:42:07,983
and I think that this video
is gonna showcase that.

873
00:42:08,067 --> 00:42:12,154
Now, this is Chelsey, and this is Emily,
and they're gonna take great care of you.

874
00:42:13,155 --> 00:42:15,449
Y'all got me in a penguin suit?

875
00:42:15,533 --> 00:42:17,743
Well, it's just for the stage scene.
It's not for the whole video.

876
00:42:17,826 --> 00:42:20,204
-Monica.
-It's sophisticated.

877
00:42:20,287 --> 00:42:23,832
And in a couple of months,
when your video is all over MTV Raps,

878
00:42:23,916 --> 00:42:27,753
Rap City, Video Music Box, you're gonna
love it. All right? I promise.

879
00:42:28,921 --> 00:42:31,674
Try them on.
You can go change behind there.

880

BOBBY: Hey, Monica.

881
00:42:38,430 --> 00:42:39,515
I was thinking...

882
00:42:39,932 --> 00:42:42,935
Look, I know you guys
are looking for producers,

883
00:42:43,018 --> 00:42:45,396
but I really think
I should do the beats on my album.

884
00:42:45,479 --> 00:42:49,024
I did the single, both versions,
y'all liked that.

885
00:42:49,108 --> 00:42:50,651
You heard <i>Pass the Bone.</i>

886
00:42:50,734 --> 00:42:53,904
And I have a few more
that I could play for you if...

887
00:42:53,988 --> 00:42:56,115
Monica? What do you...

888
00:42:57,950 --> 00:43:01,787
Come here. Let me help you.
Can you tuck in for me, please?

889
00:43:01,870 --> 00:43:03,289
Yeah.

890
00:43:04,039 --> 00:43:05,124
Yo, where did she go again?

891
00:43:05,207 --> 00:43:07,876
She just went out.
She's gonna talk to production.

892
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:09,295
Tuck in.

893
00:43:10,296 --> 00:43:12,756
CHELSEY: It looks nice. How's it feel?

894
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:14,341
Feels pretty tight.

895
00:43:14,425 --> 00:43:16,677
It's supposed to be
a little tight, sweetie.

896
00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:18,596
Arms up. Turn around.

897
00:43:21,724 --> 00:43:23,350
How do you like the color?

898
00:43:25,519 --> 00:43:27,354
Follow me, this way.

899
00:43:27,438 --> 00:43:28,939
I'll deal with that.
