1
00:00:00,492 --> 00:00:02,148
Previously on "The Breaks"...
2
00:00:02,210 --> 00:00:04,039
- Give me the tape.
- I don't have it on me.
3
00:00:04,108 --> 00:00:06,101
- You got DeeVee's tape?
- Sorry, sis.
4
00:00:06,180 --> 00:00:08,613
My dumbass cousin
got it stolen in Jersey.
5
00:00:08,682 --> 00:00:10,515
Got your tape here.
6
00:00:10,684 --> 00:00:12,651
- I'm not going to South Carolina.
- Yes, you are.
7
00:00:12,820 --> 00:00:14,500
And you gonna get away
from this Ahm nigga.
8
00:00:14,525 --> 00:00:16,672
Geronimo's crew caught Bug
over there by Kennedy.
9
00:00:16,697 --> 00:00:18,680
They chopped the nigga up.
10
00:00:20,361 --> 00:00:21,393
This is for you.
11
00:00:21,462 --> 00:00:24,213
I'm sorry about your loss.
12
00:00:24,598 --> 00:00:27,966
What do you say you and me,
we get out in front of this?
13
00:00:28,035 --> 00:00:29,568
Never in a million years.
14
00:00:29,637 --> 00:00:31,336
What are you gonna tell Mattie
Taylor when you find her?
15
00:00:31,405 --> 00:00:32,838
I'm gonna tell her the time is nigh
16
00:00:32,907 --> 00:00:34,306
to get with Fouray Records,
we about to blow up.
17
00:00:34,375 --> 00:00:35,807
You know, you're too good.
18
00:00:35,876 --> 00:00:37,843
You say that like it's a bad thing.
19
00:00:37,912 --> 00:00:39,411
It's sweet.
20
00:00:39,480 --> 00:00:43,048
I'm sorry, David, but I need you
to put your shirt back on.
21
00:00:45,586 --> 00:00:48,720

23
00:01:19,053 --> 00:01:20,953
Okay, so it's really over?
24
00:01:21,021 --> 00:01:22,454
Yeah.
25
00:01:22,523 --> 00:01:24,523
I don't understand.
You guys were so good together.
26
00:01:24,592 --> 00:01:25,791
We were.
27
00:01:25,859 --> 00:01:27,426
And I mean, don't get me wrong.
28
00:01:27,494 --> 00:01:29,661
He's still great and I still love him.
29
00:01:29,730 --> 00:01:31,830
It's just, I can't move
30
00:01:31,899 --> 00:01:34,032
the way I want to move with
David right now.
31
00:01:34,101 --> 00:01:36,168
You know, he's...
32
00:01:36,237 --> 00:01:39,104
- (zipper zipping)
- What?
33
00:01:39,173 --> 00:01:40,173
Sweet.
34
00:01:40,241 --> 00:01:42,207
Y'all broke up because he's sweet?
35
00:01:42,276 --> 00:01:43,475
Sweet.
36
00:01:43,544 --> 00:01:46,345
Good. Patient. You know.
37
00:01:46,413 --> 00:01:47,946
I don't know.
38
00:01:48,015 --> 00:01:50,215
If we'd have stayed together,
39
00:01:50,284 --> 00:01:53,452
I'd just end up hurting him
even more than I already did.
40
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:54,720
I understand.
41
00:01:54,788 --> 00:01:56,555
Of course you do. We're the same.
42
00:01:56,624 --> 00:01:57,823
Not exactly.
43
00:01:57,891 --> 00:02:01,093
And not since, you know...
44
00:02:01,161 --> 00:02:02,995
So, what, you're not hungry anymore?
45
00:02:03,063 --> 00:02:04,229
I am.
46
00:02:04,298 --> 00:02:06,698
And in certain ways, I'm hungrier,
47
00:02:06,767 --> 00:02:08,200
but other things matter now.
48
00:02:08,269 --> 00:02:10,736
And I have to take her
to the park sometimes.
49
00:02:10,804 --> 00:02:13,205
- I get it.
- I know you get it.
50
00:02:13,274 --> 00:02:15,040
That's why you said what you said.
51
00:02:15,109 --> 00:02:17,409
Damita, you cannot keep
lording that over me.
52
00:02:17,478 --> 00:02:20,112
- You asked my opinion, so...
- And you gave it and it's fine.
53
00:02:20,180 --> 00:02:21,913
I just never understood
why you disappeared
54
00:02:21,982 --> 00:02:23,515
when I decided to keep her.
55
00:02:23,584 --> 00:02:25,917
- You moved!
- Come on, Nikki.
56
00:02:25,986 --> 00:02:27,886
How many times are you
gonna make me apologize?
57
00:02:27,955 --> 00:02:30,922
(woman) Damita, where you
put Lucinda's sandals?
58
00:02:30,991 --> 00:02:33,358
By the library books.
59
00:02:34,295 --> 00:02:36,762
You're right. My bad.
60
00:02:36,830 --> 00:02:38,463
(woman) I can't find them.
61
00:02:52,079 --> 00:02:56,048
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
62
00:02:56,116 --> 00:02:59,451
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
63
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,720
Quiet on the set 'cause I'm
ready to handle you
64
00:03:01,789 --> 00:03:02,978
I'm black royalty
65
00:03:03,025 --> 00:03:04,845
Pay me my mechanicals
in dollars and cents
66
00:03:04,924 --> 00:03:06,431
I ain't in it for
the hollas and gents
67
00:03:06,510 --> 00:03:07,959
Be like Imani rock your soul...
68
00:03:08,020 --> 00:03:09,274
I'm just looking at them like
69
00:03:09,345 --> 00:03:10,634
Boy, where's your follow-through?
70
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,610
MCs out there, they kinda cute
71
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,690
But they can't compare
and they can't contest
72
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,237
'Cause next to me she's just
another model in a body suit
73
00:03:17,307 --> 00:03:19,504
Call it what you want,
I'm making no apologies
74
00:03:19,573 --> 00:03:21,473
My rhymes slice like a knife
through your arteries
75
00:03:21,542 --> 00:03:23,041
Razor sharp incision...
76
00:03:23,110 --> 00:03:24,776
Imani X is dope right?
77
00:03:24,852 --> 00:03:26,147
Yeah, yeah.
78
00:03:26,218 --> 00:03:27,979
I just got my hands on her demo.
79
00:03:28,048 --> 00:03:29,848
I want Barry to sign her.
80
00:03:29,917 --> 00:03:32,250
There's, like, 150 tapes on his desk,
81
00:03:32,319 --> 00:03:34,820
but Imani X, she's the one.
82
00:03:34,888 --> 00:03:36,988
83
00:03:37,057 --> 00:03:39,324
Baby, baby, take me higher
84
00:03:39,393 --> 00:03:41,960
I still can't believe that
you got another job.
85
00:03:42,029 --> 00:03:45,564
At another black radio station.
86
00:03:45,632 --> 00:03:49,601
You sure Juggy doesn't have
anything to do with this?
87
00:03:49,670 --> 00:03:52,137
Why you gotta fuck up my morning?
88
00:03:52,206 --> 00:03:54,439
(laughing) Yo, I'm kidding,
I'm kidding, okay?
89
00:03:54,508 --> 00:03:56,511
- Don't be so sensitive.
- It's a fresh start
90
00:03:56,603 --> 00:03:58,212
- without Juggy's initials.
- Okay.
91
00:03:58,278 --> 00:04:02,614
I actually get to program
a couple tracks and...
92
00:04:02,683 --> 00:04:04,850
You believe me?
93
00:04:04,918 --> 00:04:07,052
I have to, okay?
94
00:04:07,121 --> 00:04:09,020
My dad's on my ass.
95
00:04:09,089 --> 00:04:10,589
Ahm's on my ass.
96
00:04:10,657 --> 00:04:12,958
I don't even have a place to stay.
97
00:04:13,026 --> 00:04:15,060
Crash at my place.
98
00:04:15,129 --> 00:04:18,697
You can't put out new music
if you're in hiding.
99
00:04:20,834 --> 00:04:22,401
You sure?
100
00:04:22,469 --> 00:04:24,403
It's cool.
101
00:04:26,974 --> 00:04:28,507
It's all good, man.
102
00:04:28,575 --> 00:04:31,076
I got a couple passes to
the New Music Seminar.
103
00:04:31,145 --> 00:04:32,711
Why don't you come down and meet 'em?
104
00:04:32,780 --> 00:04:35,113
Why? I don't have a demo.
105
00:04:35,182 --> 00:04:38,150
And Ahm won't let anybody hear the
stuff that we're doing, so...
106
00:04:38,218 --> 00:04:40,652
You never know what's gonna happen.
107
00:04:40,721 --> 00:04:43,855
You can split tomorrow.
108
00:04:43,924 --> 00:04:45,357
Okay.
109
00:04:45,426 --> 00:04:47,292
There's gonna be girls there, right?
110
00:04:47,361 --> 00:04:49,428
Hell yes, there's gonna be girls there.
111
00:04:51,899 --> 00:04:53,231
Gotta go.
112
00:04:53,300 --> 00:04:55,233
- Where?
- To the job, Mama.
113
00:04:55,302 --> 00:04:57,636
What job? This your job.
114
00:04:57,704 --> 00:04:59,371
You supposed to be here.
115
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,274
Your father can't be here,
so he needs you to be.
116
00:05:02,342 --> 00:05:04,142
- Ma, I know.
- Yeah, you know?
117
00:05:04,211 --> 00:05:06,055
Then why you leave?
118
00:05:17,791 --> 00:05:20,459
(cash register dings)
119
00:05:27,768 --> 00:05:30,273
- You're fucking with me today, right?
- Actually, no.
120
00:05:30,343 --> 00:05:32,204
I'm Nikki Jones,
I'm with Fouray Management.
121
00:05:32,272 --> 00:05:33,705
I heard your demo,
122
00:05:33,774 --> 00:05:36,541
and I'd like to talk to you
about joining Fouray.
123
00:05:36,610 --> 00:05:39,678
Look, you can't be in line
if you ain't buying nothing.
124
00:05:39,746 --> 00:05:44,182
Okay, let me get a pack of
sour apple Now and Laters.
125
00:05:44,251 --> 00:05:46,718
- 25 cents.
- I think you're dope.
126
00:05:46,787 --> 00:05:50,589
We could help you get a recording
contract, get you in the studio.
127
00:05:50,657 --> 00:05:52,324
(popping gum)
128
00:05:52,392 --> 00:05:53,625
25 cents.
129
00:05:53,694 --> 00:05:55,594
Everyone's crazy over Ill Jake's album.
130
00:05:55,662 --> 00:05:57,730
He just got a new record deal,
but you don't got shit.
131
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,230
- And your point is?
- You wrote "Spit Take."
132
00:06:00,331 --> 00:06:02,634
That's the joint that got him
picked up by Atlantic.
133
00:06:03,730 --> 00:06:06,371
Look, I'd love to introduce you
to Barry Fouray.
134
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,541
He's speaking on a panel at
the New Music Seminar today.
135
00:06:09,610 --> 00:06:11,543
I'll leave two passes at the door.
136
00:06:14,848 --> 00:06:16,548
(pop)
137
00:06:17,784 --> 00:06:19,351
25 cents.
138
00:06:23,257 --> 00:06:25,090
You're better than this.
139
00:06:31,732 --> 00:06:34,132
(music playing, people chattering)
140
00:06:34,201 --> 00:06:35,800
(laughing)
141
00:06:35,869 --> 00:06:37,836
Yo, everybody is up in here.
142
00:06:37,905 --> 00:06:40,872
Yeah. Yes, they are.
143
00:06:40,941 --> 00:06:42,073
Hey, Mama. What's up?
144
00:06:42,142 --> 00:06:43,742
Hey, are you in the DJ battle?
145
00:06:43,810 --> 00:06:45,544
I'm covering it.
146
00:06:45,612 --> 00:06:47,078
Yeah, yeah, I am.
147
00:06:47,147 --> 00:06:48,880
Cool. The lyric, right?
148
00:06:48,949 --> 00:06:50,215
I'll try and stop by later.
149
00:06:50,284 --> 00:06:52,784
- Okay.
- Bye.
150
00:06:52,853 --> 00:06:54,185
So...
151
00:06:54,254 --> 00:06:57,522
since when were you selected
for the DJ battle?
152
00:06:57,591 --> 00:06:59,846
Since just now.
153
00:07:00,961 --> 00:07:05,797
And how exactly do you plan on
getting into the DJ battle?
154
00:07:05,866 --> 00:07:07,732
I have no idea.
155
00:07:07,801 --> 00:07:09,234
Holy shit!
156
00:07:10,904 --> 00:07:13,271
- Dude, is that Lynch Mob?
- Come on!
157
00:07:13,340 --> 00:07:15,206
No, bro, I'm... I'm black.
158
00:07:15,275 --> 00:07:17,509
I don't run toward shit, no.
159
00:07:17,578 --> 00:07:20,579
I was gonna be in the DJ battle!
160
00:07:34,127 --> 00:07:38,363
My son's name was Wayne Louis Calder.
161
00:07:38,432 --> 00:07:41,700
He was born February 14th, 1975,
162
00:07:41,768 --> 00:07:44,102
at Brooklyn Hospital
right up the street.
163
00:07:44,171 --> 00:07:46,438
5:36 p.m.
164
00:07:46,506 --> 00:07:50,442
My husband had to work,
so he couldn't be there.
165
00:07:50,510 --> 00:07:52,344
But my cousin Melba, she came with me.
166
00:07:52,412 --> 00:07:54,980
She held my hand the whole time.
167
00:07:55,048 --> 00:07:57,182
What you want, lady?
168
00:07:57,250 --> 00:08:00,218
He didn't cry too much
when he came into the world.
169
00:08:00,287 --> 00:08:03,922
He just laid on my belly
with his eyes open.
170
00:08:03,991 --> 00:08:07,459
I don't want your money.
171
00:08:10,797 --> 00:08:12,530
Let's go.
172
00:08:16,036 --> 00:08:18,637
He was my only child.
173
00:08:22,709 --> 00:08:25,410
(car starting)
174
00:08:25,479 --> 00:08:26,789
Not the bragging or boasting
175
00:08:26,882 --> 00:08:28,061
And plus it ain't no secret
176
00:08:28,156 --> 00:08:29,249
Why they tapping my phone
177
00:08:29,343 --> 00:08:30,781
Although I can't keep it a secret
178
00:08:30,867 --> 00:08:32,615
So I decided to kick it, yo
179
00:08:32,700 --> 00:08:34,140
And yes, it weighs a ton
180
00:08:34,233 --> 00:08:36,338
I say it once again,
I'm called the enemy
181
00:08:36,425 --> 00:08:38,545
I'll never be a friend
of those with closed minds
182
00:08:38,629 --> 00:08:41,563
Don't know that I'm rapid,
the way that I rap it...
183
00:08:42,265 --> 00:08:43,983
New Music Seminar's kinda cool.
184
00:08:44,093 --> 00:08:47,069
What they got, like, new carpet
or something in since last year?
185
00:08:47,138 --> 00:08:48,546
You remember?
186
00:08:48,654 --> 00:08:49,920
It's the same carpet, Barry.
187
00:08:50,007 --> 00:08:51,406
The sign-in table moved.
188
00:08:51,476 --> 00:08:52,842
Mm, you got a good eye.
189
00:08:52,911 --> 00:08:54,177
You have a good memory.
190
00:08:54,245 --> 00:08:55,578
Ha.
191
00:08:55,647 --> 00:08:57,814
I think Imani X should
audition for the label.
192
00:08:57,882 --> 00:09:00,583
Yeah, yeah, yeah, but listen,
this is the setup,
193
00:09:00,652 --> 00:09:03,619
and I need you to pay attention,
because it's all here...
194
00:09:03,688 --> 00:09:06,556
the money, the distribution, the talent.
195
00:09:06,624 --> 00:09:07,890
And look, look.
196
00:09:07,959 --> 00:09:10,827
That's Harvey Rosen right there,
from Landmark Distribution.
197
00:09:10,895 --> 00:09:12,556
Only thing about them
is we would have to
198
00:09:12,635 --> 00:09:14,197
put up all of the production costs.
199
00:09:14,265 --> 00:09:15,298
Ah, the queen!
200
00:09:15,366 --> 00:09:17,033
Uh, excuse me, Miss Taylor!
201
00:09:17,102 --> 00:09:19,463
I thought... I thought we was
gonna have that sit-down.
202
00:09:19,541 --> 00:09:20,607
Yeah, we are, we are.
203
00:09:20,717 --> 00:09:22,738
Things have just been a little
crazy with the transition,
204
00:09:22,807 --> 00:09:24,874
so make sure Nikki talks
to my assistant.
205
00:09:24,943 --> 00:09:26,943
We'll get her on the books
for next week.
206
00:09:45,997 --> 00:09:48,331
(humming)
207
00:10:00,345 --> 00:10:03,379
(phone line ringing)
208
00:10:04,849 --> 00:10:05,948
Cheryl.
209
00:10:06,017 --> 00:10:07,316
Hey, darlin'.
210
00:10:07,385 --> 00:10:10,686
Tell Horace
Juggy's on the line, will you?
211
00:10:14,592 --> 00:10:17,927
Horace, what's shakin', baby?
212
00:10:17,996 --> 00:10:20,496
Listen, I want to talk to you
213
00:10:20,565 --> 00:10:23,566
about this new Keith Sweat record.
214
00:10:25,670 --> 00:10:27,837
215
00:10:27,906 --> 00:10:30,473
That's why I don't care
if he breach his contract.
216
00:10:30,542 --> 00:10:32,008
If Tommy Boy doesn't drop D Bone,
217
00:10:32,076 --> 00:10:33,209
who's gonna be our first artist?
218
00:10:33,278 --> 00:10:34,310
We're about to find out.
219
00:10:34,379 --> 00:10:36,245
All right, listen up!
220
00:10:36,314 --> 00:10:37,914
I got a new label
221
00:10:37,982 --> 00:10:41,083
and we holding auditions here
later on today!
222
00:10:41,152 --> 00:10:42,785
I'm looking for a star.
223
00:10:42,854 --> 00:10:45,021
Who got the hot shit? Bring it?
224
00:10:45,089 --> 00:10:46,822
Here, right here!
225
00:10:46,891 --> 00:10:48,024
(all shouting)
226
00:10:48,092 --> 00:10:50,359
Right here. Give it to him.
227
00:10:50,428 --> 00:10:51,661
All right, ladies,
228
00:10:51,729 --> 00:10:53,596
we got our distinguished
panel of judges here.
229
00:10:53,665 --> 00:10:56,799
It's gonna be a straight vote,
no ties, no tiebreaker.
230
00:10:56,868 --> 00:10:59,502
We gonna have fun, we gonna
keep it entertaining,
231
00:10:59,571 --> 00:11:02,205
and I don't want
to see your ass this year.
232
00:11:02,273 --> 00:11:04,140
Nah, don't worry,
I got something better.
233
00:11:04,209 --> 00:11:06,409
Look, the winner's gonna get 500,
234
00:11:06,477 --> 00:11:08,077
a fresh ashtray of techniques,
235
00:11:08,146 --> 00:11:10,046
and of course... (laughs)
236
00:11:10,114 --> 00:11:11,447
Yeah.
237
00:11:11,516 --> 00:11:13,082
This is what it's all about right here.
238
00:11:13,151 --> 00:11:14,695
- (applause)
- Right?
239
00:11:14,786 --> 00:11:18,721
Y'all go get ready, man, act
like y'all want this, okay?
240
00:11:20,291 --> 00:11:22,592
Hey. Um... you know, I was gonna ask you
241
00:11:22,660 --> 00:11:24,961
if I could be a last-minute
substitute for Prince Sid.
242
00:11:25,029 --> 00:11:26,195
He kinda got caught up
243
00:11:26,264 --> 00:11:28,431
in that squabble out there
with Lynch Mob.
244
00:11:28,500 --> 00:11:30,066
All right, you in, man.
245
00:11:30,135 --> 00:11:31,664
- Word?
- Yeah, just...
246
00:11:31,726 --> 00:11:33,836
Just go set your crates up
right over there.
247
00:11:34,005 --> 00:11:36,239
Uh, you know what? About my crates, I...
248
00:11:36,307 --> 00:11:38,274
Whatever, man, you can just use mine.
249
00:11:38,343 --> 00:11:39,675
- All right?
- Yeah.
250
00:11:39,744 --> 00:11:40,710
- Thank you.
- Whatever, carry on.
251
00:11:40,778 --> 00:11:43,012
Pop-rap ain't the problem.
252
00:11:43,081 --> 00:11:44,213
I like pop.
253
00:11:44,282 --> 00:11:45,715
It's short for popular.
254
00:11:45,783 --> 00:11:47,183
(laughing)
255
00:11:47,252 --> 00:11:48,751
The problem is that hip-hop,
256
00:11:48,820 --> 00:11:50,953
it don't get the chance
to become popular
257
00:11:51,022 --> 00:11:53,623
because the radio, the radio
wants to keep it safe
258
00:11:53,691 --> 00:11:56,559
and make a little bit of money doing it,
you know what I'm saying?
259
00:11:56,628 --> 00:11:59,462
So the radio will play Young MC
260
00:11:59,530 --> 00:12:01,634
and not play Public Enemy?
261
00:12:01,704 --> 00:12:05,534
And I don't even mean that
as a disrespect to Young MC.
262
00:12:05,603 --> 00:12:08,471
I'm just saying, there's room for Hammer
263
00:12:08,539 --> 00:12:11,040
and there's room for Rakim, the God.
264
00:12:11,109 --> 00:12:13,609
(murmurs of approval)
265
00:12:13,678 --> 00:12:17,079
Mrs. Taylor, do you have
something to say?
266
00:12:17,148 --> 00:12:21,417
Radio's looking for songs
that have melody.
267
00:12:21,486 --> 00:12:25,221
Now, rap music is only just beginning
268
00:12:25,290 --> 00:12:26,684
to mature and understand that.
269
00:12:26,770 --> 00:12:29,746
- (man) What?
- People don't just want to hear beats.
270
00:12:29,824 --> 00:12:31,927
They want to hear singing,
they want beautiful music.
271
00:12:32,410 --> 00:12:35,865
We at EBJ Music truly
believe in the future of rap,
272
00:12:35,933 --> 00:12:38,534
and we're gonna be looking for
rap that has balance.
273
00:12:38,603 --> 00:12:41,604
C+C Music Factory is a great
example of that,
274
00:12:41,673 --> 00:12:44,507
both melody and rap...
275
00:12:45,743 --> 00:12:47,910
- Hey. I'm glad you could make it.
- Hey.
276
00:12:47,979 --> 00:12:49,445
So after this, I'm gonna
take you upstairs
277
00:12:49,514 --> 00:12:51,314
so you can audition for Barry.
278
00:12:51,382 --> 00:12:53,516
- Audition?
- Well, it...
279
00:12:53,584 --> 00:12:55,718
How much you paying her?
280
00:12:55,787 --> 00:12:57,948
- This my mom.
- Her manager.
281
00:12:58,034 --> 00:12:59,722
Nikki Jones, Fouray Records,
282
00:12:59,791 --> 00:13:02,291
and it's not a gig, it's an opportunity.
283
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,460
I'd like Barry to hear
what Imani X can do.
284
00:13:04,529 --> 00:13:06,295
I think you'll kill it.
285
00:13:06,364 --> 00:13:08,864
I got all the respect in
the world for my sister here,
286
00:13:08,933 --> 00:13:12,802
but this is an old person's view
of what music is supposed to be.
287
00:13:12,870 --> 00:13:15,538
I've been in this business long
enough to know what sells,
288
00:13:15,606 --> 00:13:18,074
and I also understand that music
is always changing.
289
00:13:18,142 --> 00:13:20,042
Then you can't... You can't...
You can't tell me that...
290
00:13:20,111 --> 00:13:23,312
EBJ Music is looking forward
to progressing with rap music.
291
00:13:23,381 --> 00:13:24,990
You can't tell me that "Humpty Dance"
ain't as catchy as...
292
00:13:25,015 --> 00:13:27,116
- ..."You Can't Touch This."
- But it's more than just being catchy.
293
00:13:27,185 --> 00:13:28,617
It's more than just being catchy.
294
00:13:28,686 --> 00:13:30,820
Hey, can you cover me for a few?
295
00:13:30,888 --> 00:13:34,472
- ...and NWA don't make great songs...
- ...has a melody, that has a message...
296
00:13:34,558 --> 00:13:36,949
...that aren't more than
catchy and have messages.
297
00:13:37,051 --> 00:13:37,860
- I don't think so.
- (applause)
298
00:13:37,929 --> 00:13:40,963
- Public Enemy don't have a message?
- Well, but we want...
299
00:13:41,032 --> 00:13:42,992
- Public Enemy don't have a message.
- We want melody.
300
00:13:52,110 --> 00:13:55,144
(knocking on door)
301
00:13:57,315 --> 00:13:59,048
(knocking continues)
302
00:14:12,163 --> 00:14:16,866
Yo, man, we found that nigga
that killed Bug.
303
00:14:16,934 --> 00:14:18,067
Yo!
304
00:14:18,136 --> 00:14:21,270
Yo, Ahm, man.
305
00:14:21,339 --> 00:14:23,472
Look, man, this is Bug's...
306
00:14:26,711 --> 00:14:29,645
Look, man, stop tripping
over that woman, a'ight?
307
00:14:29,714 --> 00:14:32,081
If she ain't want it, she ain't want it.
308
00:14:32,150 --> 00:14:35,184
I mean, if you really wanna
do something for her,
309
00:14:35,253 --> 00:14:38,621
we staying at his girl's crib
up in Crown Heights.
310
00:14:38,689 --> 00:14:41,991
We got eyes on him.
311
00:14:48,065 --> 00:14:49,065
(door slams)
312
00:14:49,555 --> 00:14:50,921
Okay.
313
00:14:50,981 --> 00:14:53,944
It's time to open it to
the audience for questions.
314
00:14:54,039 --> 00:14:55,406
Uh...
315
00:14:55,571 --> 00:14:56,971
The young lady in the yellow shirt.
316
00:15:01,985 --> 00:15:04,018
I got a question for Barry.
317
00:15:05,930 --> 00:15:11,821
I wanna know how you use a coke
habit as an artist's expense.
318
00:15:11,846 --> 00:15:12,831
Yo...
319
00:15:12,929 --> 00:15:14,362
- Creative accounting or something, what?
- Ladies and gentlemen,
320
00:15:14,431 --> 00:15:16,581
this cornfed bitch used to work with me
321
00:15:16,675 --> 00:15:19,334
until I fired his ass for
pocketing artists' money.
322
00:15:19,403 --> 00:15:22,628
Brother, you don't have
no money to steal.
323
00:15:22,714 --> 00:15:25,464
Huh? Yo, this man ain't got
no distribution, people,
324
00:15:25,550 --> 00:15:26,604
you know what I'm saying?
325
00:15:26,629 --> 00:15:29,415
If you tell the folks that you
giving them a record deal...
326
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,293
You talking, but what...
327
00:15:31,318 --> 00:15:33,832
You first ought to make sure that you
to enough wax in your store, right?
328
00:15:33,857 --> 00:15:36,659
What have you ever started? Nothing!
You a leech, boss!
329
00:15:36,684 --> 00:15:38,204
You don't know nothing about being no...
330
00:15:38,252 --> 00:15:40,786
- Hey, hey, look, your boy...
- You stepping up?
331
00:15:40,855 --> 00:15:41,855
(overlapping shouting)
332
00:15:41,907 --> 00:15:44,245
- You won't be nothing without me!
- You wanna step up?
333
00:15:44,339 --> 00:15:46,392
I'm the cat who helped you
start this thing!
334
00:15:46,461 --> 00:15:48,245
You a sucker, you gonna
always be a sucker.
335
00:15:48,308 --> 00:15:50,575
I knew that Fouray wasn't shit.
336
00:15:50,643 --> 00:15:52,043
Come on, let's go.
337
00:15:52,111 --> 00:15:53,878
- I'm so scared.
- Yeah, I want you to be.
338
00:15:53,947 --> 00:15:55,580
- Be very scared.
- Ooh, I'm scared!
339
00:15:55,648 --> 00:15:57,315
Get outta here, you a sucker!
340
00:15:58,985 --> 00:16:01,152
My mom got called into work last minute.
341
00:16:01,221 --> 00:16:02,153
Okay.
342
00:16:02,222 --> 00:16:04,822
I gotta go catch Imani.
343
00:16:07,861 --> 00:16:11,462
Imani X! Mrs. Williams!
344
00:16:11,531 --> 00:16:14,232
Please! Please! I...
345
00:16:14,300 --> 00:16:15,233
Tell me.
346
00:16:15,301 --> 00:16:17,802
How is that man gonna manage Imani
347
00:16:17,871 --> 00:16:20,872
when he can't even manage
his own God damn self, huh?
348
00:16:20,940 --> 00:16:22,440
I am sorry for all the drama.
349
00:16:22,509 --> 00:16:24,208
Gordie is Barry's closest
childhood friend.
350
00:16:24,277 --> 00:16:25,676
You know how those things can turn ugly.
351
00:16:25,745 --> 00:16:28,846
And what exactly is Fouray
gonna do for my baby?
352
00:16:28,915 --> 00:16:30,848
He's gonna make her a star.
353
00:16:30,917 --> 00:16:32,450
So why do I have to audition?
354
00:16:32,519 --> 00:16:34,452
Please, believe me,
355
00:16:34,521 --> 00:16:37,388
the auditions are just
a formality, trust me.
356
00:16:40,220 --> 00:16:43,661
Let's just do it. I already took
the whole day off anyway.
357
00:16:43,730 --> 00:16:46,731
In that nasty-ass Army surplus shit?
358
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,066
Ain't nobody at war.
359
00:16:49,135 --> 00:16:50,902
Ma, why you tripping?
360
00:16:50,970 --> 00:16:53,237
Because, we trying to get you a deal,
361
00:16:53,306 --> 00:16:54,539
and you running around here
362
00:16:54,607 --> 00:16:56,340
looking like a raggedy-ass little boy.
363
00:16:56,409 --> 00:16:58,024
- Oh, hey, girl.
- Hey.
364
00:16:58,086 --> 00:17:00,469
Just wanted to let you know
that the article on Barry got approved.
365
00:17:00,531 --> 00:17:02,146
- Dope, that's great news.
- Yeah.
366
00:17:02,215 --> 00:17:03,681
Hey, can you help me out with something?
367
00:17:03,750 --> 00:17:06,451
I need a few seconds with Imani.
368
00:17:06,519 --> 00:17:07,519
- Got it.
- Thanks.
369
00:17:07,544 --> 00:17:08,586
Here, take the baby.
370
00:17:08,655 --> 00:17:09,954
(baby fussing)
371
00:17:10,023 --> 00:17:12,056
I'll get her from you later.
372
00:17:12,125 --> 00:17:14,359
You have a cheetah dress on right now,
Mom? You feelin' it?
373
00:17:14,527 --> 00:17:15,726
- I do?
- Hey.
374
00:17:15,795 --> 00:17:16,938
- You have a cheetah dress.
- I'm Damita Alonzo
375
00:17:17,016 --> 00:17:18,463
from the "Village Voice."
376
00:17:18,531 --> 00:17:19,931
I'd like to get a few quotes for a piece
377
00:17:19,999 --> 00:17:21,933
I'm working on about artist management.
378
00:17:22,001 --> 00:17:24,043
- Sure.
- Yeah? Great, thanks.
379
00:17:24,152 --> 00:17:25,937
- I'll get you.
- Over here.
380
00:17:26,005 --> 00:17:29,168
What magazine did you say
you worked for?
381
00:17:29,476 --> 00:17:30,842
Sorry about your mom.
382
00:17:30,910 --> 00:17:33,344
It's not your fault. Whose kid?
383
00:17:33,413 --> 00:17:34,645
Not mine.
384
00:17:34,714 --> 00:17:37,415
Hey, I think Barry will
be ready for you in a sec.
385
00:17:37,484 --> 00:17:38,816
I'll go check.
386
00:17:38,885 --> 00:17:41,185
- Come on. Come on.
- (elevator bell dings)
387
00:17:43,056 --> 00:17:45,022
Who left this beautiful child with you?
388
00:17:45,091 --> 00:17:47,825
Whoa! Okay...
389
00:17:47,894 --> 00:17:49,560
Okay, but whose baby is this?
390
00:17:49,629 --> 00:17:51,963
(sniffing) All right!
391
00:17:52,031 --> 00:17:56,033
(clapping) Let's get the party started!
392
00:17:56,102 --> 00:17:57,802
No, no, no. It's all right.
393
00:17:57,871 --> 00:17:59,770
Yo, let... let me see what you got.
394
00:17:59,839 --> 00:18:02,240
Words of a mastermind,
that's how I'm feeling
395
00:18:02,308 --> 00:18:04,475
Knocking MCs out like
Mike Tyson did Givens
396
00:18:04,544 --> 00:18:07,044
Rhyme after rhyme,
I'm flowing without a flaw
397
00:18:07,113 --> 00:18:09,247
I keep it going and going
without a pause
398
00:18:09,315 --> 00:18:11,516
Word to Chuck D, nasty it must be
399
00:18:11,584 --> 00:18:13,551
You wanna draw hammers,
but you can't even touch me
400
00:18:13,620 --> 00:18:15,086
'Cause you don't really want it
401
00:18:15,154 --> 00:18:16,721
And you ain't gonna blast, son
402
00:18:16,789 --> 00:18:18,422
Any day stepping up to me
be your last one
403
00:18:18,491 --> 00:18:20,525
So stop all the fronting and acting
404
00:18:20,593 --> 00:18:23,094
I'm coming out of Queensbridge,
the main attraction
405
00:18:23,162 --> 00:18:24,662
You now listening to the best, kid
406
00:18:24,731 --> 00:18:27,231
Telling whack MCs step off
like a jet bridge
407
00:18:27,300 --> 00:18:28,900
Born with the gift of gab
408
00:18:28,968 --> 00:18:31,335
Heading to liquor store
looking for a fifth to grab
409
00:18:31,404 --> 00:18:34,639
In the studio when I put pen
to pad, I'm out of orbit
410
00:18:34,707 --> 00:18:37,208
And keep coming right back
with all that raw shit
411
00:18:37,277 --> 00:18:39,544
Okay, you nice with yours,
kid, for sure.
412
00:18:39,612 --> 00:18:42,547
You got flow.
Keep... Keep doing your thing.
413
00:18:42,615 --> 00:18:43,948
Who's next, though?
414
00:18:44,017 --> 00:18:45,249
I need next. Next, next.
415
00:18:45,318 --> 00:18:47,618
Go! Go!
416
00:18:47,687 --> 00:18:49,720
Go, go, go, go, go
417
00:18:49,789 --> 00:18:51,856
(cheering and applause)
418
00:18:51,925 --> 00:18:53,324
419
00:18:53,393 --> 00:18:54,393
(scratching)
420
00:18:54,427 --> 00:18:56,527
(indistinct rap music and scratching)
421
00:19:04,103 --> 00:19:06,404
(crowd cheering)
422
00:19:14,180 --> 00:19:15,613
There it is
423
00:19:15,682 --> 00:19:16,581
(crowd cheering)
424
00:19:16,649 --> 00:19:18,416
All flash.
425
00:19:18,484 --> 00:19:21,118
426
00:19:22,188 --> 00:19:24,021
(record trilling)
427
00:19:24,090 --> 00:19:27,158
(crowd cheering)
428
00:19:29,729 --> 00:19:33,064
(scratching)
429
00:19:33,132 --> 00:19:34,865
There it is, there it is
430
00:19:34,934 --> 00:19:37,134
There it is, there it is,
there it is, there it is
431
00:19:37,203 --> 00:19:39,971
There it is, there it is,
there it is, there it is...
432
00:19:40,039 --> 00:19:42,306
(music continues)
433
00:19:44,477 --> 00:19:45,242
Oh, no, he did not.
434
00:19:45,311 --> 00:19:46,811
There it is
435
00:19:46,879 --> 00:19:49,113
There it is, there it is,
there it is...
436
00:19:49,182 --> 00:19:50,748
What is that, a baby's arm?
437
00:19:50,817 --> 00:19:52,083
There it is...
438
00:19:52,151 --> 00:19:53,484
Yo, man, what is wrong with you?
439
00:19:53,553 --> 00:19:55,419
There it is, there it is...
440
00:19:55,488 --> 00:19:56,520
(music stops)
441
00:19:56,589 --> 00:19:58,689
Man, he gets good
traction with that thing.
442
00:19:58,758 --> 00:20:00,658
What a dick move.
443
00:20:00,727 --> 00:20:02,159
(laughter)
444
00:20:02,228 --> 00:20:04,829
Make some noise for
DJ Breakmaster G, y'all!
445
00:20:04,897 --> 00:20:07,131
(cheering and applause)
446
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:08,768
Yo, you still go by the name DJ DeeVee?
447
00:20:08,869 --> 00:20:10,368
- Nah, it's just DeeVee.
- Okay.
448
00:20:10,436 --> 00:20:13,070
Make some noise for our
challenger, DeeVee, y'all!
449
00:20:13,139 --> 00:20:15,606
(cheering and applause)
450
00:20:15,675 --> 00:20:17,074
DeeVee, where you from?
451
00:20:17,143 --> 00:20:18,976
From Queens!
452
00:20:19,045 --> 00:20:20,645
(cheering and applause)
453
00:20:22,048 --> 00:20:24,649
It's on you, Queens.
454
00:20:24,717 --> 00:20:26,317
(crowd chattering)
455
00:20:27,987 --> 00:20:30,321
I don't know his fucking crates!
456
00:20:30,390 --> 00:20:32,289
I should have known you was gonna choke.
457
00:20:32,358 --> 00:20:34,659
Yo, this sucker's from Queens.
458
00:20:34,727 --> 00:20:35,893
(audience booing)
459
00:20:35,962 --> 00:20:37,228
Yo, is Brooklyn in the house?
460
00:20:37,296 --> 00:20:38,296
(scattered cheers)
461
00:20:38,364 --> 00:20:40,631
Fuck that guy. Don't listen to him.
462
00:20:43,569 --> 00:20:45,703
Actually, I think I will.
463
00:20:45,772 --> 00:20:47,638
Fucking hypocrite.
464
00:20:47,707 --> 00:20:49,140
(scattered cheers)
465
00:20:49,208 --> 00:20:51,208
(man) What's up? See what Queens about.
466
00:20:51,277 --> 00:20:53,577
(scratching record)
467
00:20:55,982 --> 00:20:58,349
All you other DJs be at your best
468
00:20:58,418 --> 00:21:00,618
All you other DJs just...
just confess
469
00:21:00,687 --> 00:21:02,987
All you other DJs
you can steal your all
470
00:21:03,056 --> 00:21:05,690
All you other
DJs just take your fall
471
00:21:05,758 --> 00:21:08,392
All you other DJs already try
472
00:21:08,461 --> 00:21:10,594
All you other DJs disqualify
473
00:21:10,663 --> 00:21:13,030
If you think you can beat him
I'd say you're wrong
474
00:21:13,099 --> 00:21:15,700
If you think you can
beat him I'd say you're wrong
475
00:21:15,768 --> 00:21:18,102
If you think you can beat him
I'd say you're wrong
476
00:21:18,171 --> 00:21:20,871
All you other DJs think...
think you can beat him
477
00:21:20,940 --> 00:21:23,140
All you other DJs you must be nuts
478
00:21:23,209 --> 00:21:25,743
All you other DJs think...
think you can beat him
479
00:21:25,812 --> 00:21:28,879
All you other DJs you must be nuts
480
00:21:28,948 --> 00:21:30,281
(cheers and jeers)
481
00:21:30,349 --> 00:21:31,916
DJs think... think
482
00:21:31,984 --> 00:21:33,417
(record scratching)
483
00:21:33,486 --> 00:21:36,587
Other DJs you must be nuts
484
00:21:36,656 --> 00:21:38,456
All you other DJs
485
00:21:38,524 --> 00:21:40,391
Think... think... you can beat him
486
00:21:40,460 --> 00:21:41,926
Other DJs
487
00:21:41,994 --> 00:21:44,061
You must be nuts
488
00:21:44,130 --> 00:21:45,663
(cheers and jeers)
489
00:21:45,732 --> 00:21:47,665
Still scratching cuts... cuts
490
00:21:47,734 --> 00:21:50,134
(scratching)
491
00:22:07,386 --> 00:22:11,188
(cheering and applause)
492
00:22:11,257 --> 00:22:14,258
All right. Wow, okay, okay.
493
00:22:14,327 --> 00:22:16,794
Let's go to the judges
and see who won that round.
494
00:22:20,199 --> 00:22:21,599
(overlapping chatter)
495
00:22:21,667 --> 00:22:22,867
496
00:22:22,935 --> 00:22:25,336
DeeVee!
497
00:22:25,404 --> 00:22:26,604
(speaking indistinctly)
498
00:22:26,672 --> 00:22:29,173
Make some noise for DeeVee, y'all!
499
00:22:29,242 --> 00:22:31,142
(cheering and applause)
500
00:22:33,045 --> 00:22:34,645
My man Yapmaster B.L.
501
00:22:34,714 --> 00:22:36,547
is in central booking right now, right?
502
00:22:36,616 --> 00:22:40,117
So I'm gonna do his part
and I'm gonna do my part, right?
503
00:22:41,287 --> 00:22:42,153
(beat starts)
504
00:22:42,222 --> 00:22:43,669
Check it out.
505
00:22:43,723 --> 00:22:45,556
I got the beat, no, I got the beat
506
00:22:45,625 --> 00:22:48,259
Yo we got the beat
to rock the streets, huh
507
00:22:48,327 --> 00:22:50,728
I got the beat, yo, I got the beat
508
00:22:50,797 --> 00:22:53,297
Yo, we got the beat
to rock the streets, yo
509
00:22:53,366 --> 00:22:55,666
I'll hip the hop
and I'll flip the flop
510
00:22:55,735 --> 00:22:58,269
There's a drip a drop
and I'm not a cop
511
00:22:58,337 --> 00:23:00,653
Yo, together we could
rock this beat nonstop
512
00:23:00,678 --> 00:23:01,972
- Yo...
-
We're the B.L. Crew
513
00:23:02,041 --> 00:23:03,641
And we can never be stopped, huh
514
00:23:03,709 --> 00:23:05,409
Time out, time out, time out,
yo, time out, time out.
515
00:23:05,478 --> 00:23:07,311
Do you know what year it is, man?
516
00:23:07,380 --> 00:23:09,246
- It's 1990.
- Are you sure?
517
00:23:09,315 --> 00:23:11,982
Do you know that for a fact?
518
00:23:12,051 --> 00:23:13,684
You looking real fam...
519
00:23:13,753 --> 00:23:14,885
Yo...

00:23:14,954 --> 00:23:17,428
Yo, Ponds, that's the motherfucker
bootlegging our shit!
521
00:23:17,453 --> 00:23:18,589
Oh! I recognize you!
522
00:23:18,658 --> 00:23:20,291
Get him, grab him, Ponds!
523
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:21,959
(elevator bell dings)
524
00:23:24,430 --> 00:23:26,463
What now, Juggy?
525
00:23:26,532 --> 00:23:27,698
I know you're very busy
526
00:23:27,767 --> 00:23:30,634
with the new job and the fancy title,
527
00:23:30,703 --> 00:23:35,773
so I reached out to some old
friends from back in the day
528
00:23:35,842 --> 00:23:40,244
and I have secured for you
about a dozen or so stations
529
00:23:40,313 --> 00:23:42,546
that are just chomping at the bit
530
00:23:42,615 --> 00:23:45,049
to put Keith Sweat's new single
531
00:23:45,117 --> 00:23:47,218
into their rotations.
532
00:23:48,354 --> 00:23:51,222
Why would you do that?
You don't work at EBJ.
533
00:23:51,290 --> 00:23:53,157
You don't work anywhere,
for that matter.
534
00:23:53,226 --> 00:23:54,925
(chuckling)
535
00:23:54,994 --> 00:23:56,527
I just... I...
536
00:23:58,598 --> 00:24:00,497
I want to see you succeed.
537
00:24:00,566 --> 00:24:01,765
Mm-hmm.
538
00:24:03,669 --> 00:24:04,768
Hmm.
539
00:24:04,837 --> 00:24:06,837
You know, sometimes...
540
00:24:06,906 --> 00:24:09,807
a good word from an old pal
can go a long way.
541
00:24:09,876 --> 00:24:11,308
(elevator bell dings)
542
00:24:11,377 --> 00:24:14,478
It certainly can't hurt to have
"I'll Give All my Love to You"
543
00:24:14,547 --> 00:24:18,015
playing in three major Midwest markets.
544
00:24:18,084 --> 00:24:20,150
Well, I'm sorry, did I overstep?
545
00:24:20,219 --> 00:24:21,485
(elevator bell dings)
546
00:24:21,554 --> 00:24:22,920
You want me to call 'em all back
547
00:24:22,989 --> 00:24:25,656
and tell 'em it's a no-go?
548
00:24:25,725 --> 00:24:27,958
Taken from the motherland,
stolen from our homes
549
00:24:28,027 --> 00:24:30,127
To rap for the white man
on his microphones
550
00:24:30,196 --> 00:24:32,596
They call it new music,
but that ain't a fact
551
00:24:32,665 --> 00:24:34,765
'Cause it was already here
and created by blacks
552
00:24:34,834 --> 00:24:37,201
First they stole rock and
roll then they stole the soul
553
00:24:37,270 --> 00:24:39,603
Left brother Chuck Berry
starving out in the cold
554
00:24:39,672 --> 00:24:41,971
And now rapping is hot
and you know what's a waste?
555
00:24:42,073 --> 00:24:44,268
We trying to get home
but we on third base
556
00:24:44,370 --> 00:24:45,643
Sashay!
557
00:24:45,711 --> 00:24:47,811
All right, we not looking
for the next Clan.
558
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:49,413
Say, my brother...
559
00:24:49,482 --> 00:24:51,582
who's distributing this so-called label?
560
00:24:51,651 --> 00:24:53,484
Okay, I can't deal with this shit.
561
00:24:53,552 --> 00:24:55,519
I'm out, all right? Move.
562
00:24:55,588 --> 00:24:57,068
The revolution ain't gonna televised,
563
00:24:57,123 --> 00:24:58,555
- fucking around with y'all clowns.
- Imani X is ready.
564
00:24:58,624 --> 00:25:00,157
Well, you tell her to leave her demo.
565
00:25:00,226 --> 00:25:01,558
- But she's been waiting for...
- I don't care!
566
00:25:01,627 --> 00:25:03,994
What'd I say? She can wait forever!
567
00:25:12,338 --> 00:25:15,406
(indistinct chatter)
568
00:25:15,474 --> 00:25:17,474
Yo, J, what's up?
569
00:25:18,711 --> 00:25:20,644
What you doing here, Tiffany?
570
00:25:20,713 --> 00:25:22,880
Ain't nobody interested
in that lame flow.
571
00:25:22,949 --> 00:25:25,649
Boy, what? I'm the reason why
people checking for you now.
572
00:25:25,718 --> 00:25:29,320
If you're the reason I got this deal,
573
00:25:29,388 --> 00:25:31,722
then how come you don't
have a deal at all?
574
00:25:31,791 --> 00:25:33,657
Riddle me that.
575
00:25:39,966 --> 00:25:42,533
There you are. Is Barry ready for me?
576
00:25:42,601 --> 00:25:44,134
Well, not exactly.
577
00:25:44,203 --> 00:25:46,637
Barry just got called into
an important emergency meeting,
578
00:25:46,706 --> 00:25:48,572
- but he's promised to listen to your demo...
- I knew it.
579
00:25:48,641 --> 00:25:50,307
He promised me... Look, I... I knew.
580
00:25:50,376 --> 00:25:52,109
I told you, baby.
581
00:25:52,178 --> 00:25:53,544
This bitch ain't shit.
582
00:25:53,612 --> 00:25:55,346
- I... I...
- Just like her boss.
583
00:25:55,414 --> 00:25:56,814
Let's go.
584
00:26:02,864 --> 00:26:04,464
(bell chimes)
585
00:26:23,485 --> 00:26:25,418
Yo, why is you sweating me, man?
586
00:26:25,487 --> 00:26:26,586
You buy something or not?
587
00:26:26,655 --> 00:26:27,736
Ma, Ma, I got it.
588
00:26:37,899 --> 00:26:40,133
You're Jamil's little brother, yeah?
589
00:26:40,202 --> 00:26:41,768
Tell him what's up.
590
00:26:44,306 --> 00:26:45,338
(bell chimes)
591
00:26:45,407 --> 00:26:46,906
He's a good kid.
592
00:26:46,975 --> 00:26:48,875
Good at stealing.
593
00:26:48,944 --> 00:26:51,144
The store's dead. I've got a gig.
594
00:26:51,213 --> 00:26:52,412
And you leave me here?
595
00:26:52,481 --> 00:26:55,448
My other job is important, too, Oma.
596
00:26:55,517 --> 00:26:57,584
(cheering and applause)
597
00:26:57,652 --> 00:26:59,953
Okay, okay, okay,
okay, okay, okay, okay.
598
00:27:00,021 --> 00:27:02,555
This is what it's about right now.
599
00:27:02,624 --> 00:27:04,524
The big show.
600
00:27:04,593 --> 00:27:06,826
The final round.
601
00:27:06,895 --> 00:27:09,229
Can you fucking believe
you made it this far?
602
00:27:09,297 --> 00:27:10,563
It's fucking crazy.
603
00:27:10,632 --> 00:27:11,898
I know, crazy.
604
00:27:11,967 --> 00:27:15,268
You really want to leave all this?
605
00:27:15,337 --> 00:27:16,870
Man, I don't know.
606
00:27:16,938 --> 00:27:19,572
Okay. We'll send you off right.
607
00:27:19,641 --> 00:27:22,542
Up first is my man DJ Steve T, y'all!
608
00:27:22,611 --> 00:27:25,545
(cheers and jeers)
609
00:27:25,614 --> 00:27:27,046
610
00:27:27,115 --> 00:27:29,149
(turntabling)
611
00:27:47,269 --> 00:27:49,302
(cheering and applause)
612
00:27:53,141 --> 00:27:56,509
Hey, there's an orange record
back there, all right?
613
00:27:56,578 --> 00:27:59,045
With a fist on it. Get me that.
614
00:27:59,114 --> 00:28:00,346
615
00:28:00,415 --> 00:28:02,682
(scratching record)
616
00:28:10,292 --> 00:28:12,225
(cheering and applause)
617
00:28:12,294 --> 00:28:14,127
Look at you. Huh?
618
00:28:14,196 --> 00:28:17,063
(cooing softly)
619
00:28:24,639 --> 00:28:26,573
I can't believe I missed everything.
620
00:28:26,641 --> 00:28:28,708
- Where were you?
- Where do you think?
621
00:28:28,777 --> 00:28:30,043
You don't get a day off?
622
00:28:30,111 --> 00:28:33,213
- My dad had a stroke.
- Oh, my God, I'm so sorry.
623
00:28:33,281 --> 00:28:34,747
It's fine, it was last year,
624
00:28:34,816 --> 00:28:37,484
but he still can't work,
so they expect me to.
625
00:28:37,552 --> 00:28:39,152
So that's why you're always late.
626
00:28:39,221 --> 00:28:40,221
Yeah.
627
00:28:40,288 --> 00:28:42,455
And here I thought
you was just on C.P. time.
628
00:28:42,524 --> 00:28:45,058
(both laugh)
629
00:28:45,126 --> 00:28:47,794
Yo, Imani X is battling
Ill Jake in the lobby.
630
00:28:49,698 --> 00:28:52,398
(singsong) You gonna fall asleep.
631
00:28:52,467 --> 00:28:55,401
Uh... Tamika, right?
632
00:28:55,470 --> 00:28:56,970
Yes?
633
00:28:57,038 --> 00:28:59,572
What... this your baby?
634
00:28:59,641 --> 00:29:01,174
Yes.
635
00:29:01,243 --> 00:29:03,343
Hi. Thank you.
636
00:29:03,411 --> 00:29:04,644
And don't forget her bunny.
637
00:29:04,713 --> 00:29:06,713
Hi. Oh. Hi...
638
00:29:06,781 --> 00:29:08,681
Let me take this intermission
639
00:29:08,750 --> 00:29:11,117
To say from musician wishing
640
00:29:11,186 --> 00:29:13,152
Ill Jake can't be wrong
when I tell y'all
641
00:29:13,221 --> 00:29:15,922
That this black bitch
belongs in the kitchen
642
00:29:15,991 --> 00:29:17,557
Cooking my eggs and my biscuits
643
00:29:17,626 --> 00:29:20,126
And stop frontin',
you ain't like a Jamaican
644
00:29:20,195 --> 00:29:22,195
I see the crown and it's
ripe for the taking
645
00:29:22,264 --> 00:29:25,031
You ain't an MC
you a bitch in the making
646
00:29:25,100 --> 00:29:26,933
Now you wanna pop off, cry about it
647
00:29:27,002 --> 00:29:28,902
Your hair you can chop off
648
00:29:28,970 --> 00:29:30,737
That's what hoes do
when y'all careers drop off
649
00:29:30,805 --> 00:29:32,272
How did I get here?
650
00:29:32,340 --> 00:29:35,008
Back in the middle with
this Monie Love knockoff
651
00:29:35,076 --> 00:29:36,976
Y'all say he ain't right
652
00:29:37,045 --> 00:29:39,145
But she ain't Latifah
and she ain't Lyte
653
00:29:39,214 --> 00:29:41,648
Ain't nobody gonna sign you
'cause you ain't light
654
00:29:41,716 --> 00:29:43,516
And your rhymes
ain't even tight, a'ight?
655
00:29:43,585 --> 00:29:45,785
- (crowd "oohs")
- Yeah.
656
00:29:45,854 --> 00:29:48,388
And you can take that back
to the boys' bathroom, Imani.
657
00:29:48,456 --> 00:29:53,359
(beat continues)
658
00:29:53,428 --> 00:29:54,561
Okay, all right.
659
00:29:54,629 --> 00:29:55,929
That was cute for you.
660
00:29:55,997 --> 00:29:57,530
He clearly doesn't get any pussies.
661
00:29:57,599 --> 00:29:58,531
- We get it.
- (all chattering)
662
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,266
Uhh, yo
663
00:30:00,335 --> 00:30:02,235
I don't claim to be
the meanest chick
664
00:30:02,304 --> 00:30:04,671
It's been a while since I seen
a scene this thick
665
00:30:04,739 --> 00:30:07,173
Matter fact the last time
I seen a scene this thick
666
00:30:07,242 --> 00:30:09,709
Was probably the last time
Ill Jake seen his dick
667
00:30:09,778 --> 00:30:11,277
And now I got a gunclap
668
00:30:11,346 --> 00:30:13,746
How a diabetic claiming
that he run rap
669
00:30:13,815 --> 00:30:15,615
When he probably can't even run laps
670
00:30:15,684 --> 00:30:17,650
Look at his stomach, it's
done lapped over his belt
671
00:30:17,719 --> 00:30:19,352
Where yonder money buns at
672
00:30:19,421 --> 00:30:21,421
So let's put it on a display
673
00:30:21,489 --> 00:30:23,523
It's time for the truth,
it's overdue
674
00:30:23,592 --> 00:30:26,092
Now I'll admit the little
rhyme that you spit was ill
675
00:30:26,161 --> 00:30:28,761
But not as half as ill
as the ones I wrote for you
676
00:30:28,830 --> 00:30:30,697
Jake, you a snake
and I got you rattled
677
00:30:30,765 --> 00:30:33,166
John Candy asshole,
how you like them apples?
678
00:30:33,234 --> 00:30:35,176
How you like it
when a girl get at you?
679
00:30:35,268 --> 00:30:36,801
But I'm gonna be considerate stock
680
00:30:36,872 --> 00:30:38,285
You look ill, Jake,
don't go into shock
681
00:30:38,340 --> 00:30:40,607
Is there a nurse
in the house and a doc
682
00:30:40,675 --> 00:30:42,508
That can administer this
fat nigga insulin shot?
683
00:30:42,577 --> 00:30:44,257
Wonder Woman
and I'm packing the lassos
684
00:30:44,312 --> 00:30:46,379
Smacking all you cackling assholes
685
00:30:46,448 --> 00:30:48,147
So let's give it up to the fatso
686
00:30:48,216 --> 00:30:49,882
Clap clap, nigga, you made it
687
00:30:49,951 --> 00:30:50,984
- That's my star.
-
Signed to a deal
688
00:30:51,052 --> 00:30:52,919
But you not top pedigree
689
00:30:52,988 --> 00:30:54,854
Call me a bitch
but everybody know this bitch
690
00:30:54,923 --> 00:30:57,624
Is more man than your
bitch ass'll ever be
691
00:30:57,692 --> 00:30:59,492
(crowd gasps and applauds)
692
00:30:59,561 --> 00:31:00,793
Yeah!
693
00:31:00,862 --> 00:31:03,229
(cheering and applause)
694
00:31:07,769 --> 00:31:08,901
Hey!
695
00:31:08,970 --> 00:31:10,962
- Hey yourself, culture vulture.
- (Nikki) What the fuck?
696
00:31:11,048 --> 00:31:12,872
It's okay, Nikki, give Jake some space.
697
00:31:12,948 --> 00:31:15,482
He just got sunned by an earth.
698
00:31:15,543 --> 00:31:16,442
- (laughter)
- Bitch.
699
00:31:16,501 --> 00:31:18,177
Fuck you, egg roll.
700
00:31:18,246 --> 00:31:19,612
Fuck you, fat boy!
701
00:31:19,681 --> 00:31:20,913
(crowd) Ooh...
702
00:31:23,251 --> 00:31:26,285
Hey. Don't listen to that knucklehead.
703
00:31:26,354 --> 00:31:27,720
Uh, I... I won't.
704
00:31:27,789 --> 00:31:28,955
Hey, I'm Ralph McDaniels.
705
00:31:29,024 --> 00:31:31,557

- Nice to meet you.
706
00:31:31,626 --> 00:31:33,626
I'd love to see your photos
when you get 'em developed.
707
00:31:33,695 --> 00:31:36,195
Yeah! (chuckling)
708
00:31:38,433 --> 00:31:41,200

(woman shrieks)
715
00:32:35,790 --> 00:32:37,457
(man) Yo, what you doing?
716
00:32:37,525 --> 00:32:38,825
Yo, what you want me to do with her?
717
00:32:38,893 --> 00:32:39,792
- Let her go.
- Don't you even...
718
00:32:39,861 --> 00:32:40,793
- What the fuck do you mean?
- Let her go!
719
00:32:40,862 --> 00:32:42,390
Fuck, man! (grunts)
720
00:32:42,415 --> 00:32:43,996
Come on, bitch. Come on.
721
00:32:44,065 --> 00:32:45,298
(woman shrieking)
722
00:32:46,768 --> 00:32:48,134
Don't even think about it.
723
00:32:48,203 --> 00:32:50,303
(grunting) Run, bitch!
724
00:32:52,407 --> 00:32:53,506
(gunshot)
725
00:32:53,575 --> 00:32:56,342
(screaming)
726
00:32:59,500 --> 00:33:02,367
(cheering and applause)
727
00:33:02,436 --> 00:33:05,080
All right, y'all, all right,
y'all, this is it!
728
00:33:05,172 --> 00:33:08,073
Our challenger DeeVee is about
ready to get this shit started,
729
00:33:08,142 --> 00:33:10,976
so without any further ado,
let's go, DeeVee.
730
00:33:11,044 --> 00:33:13,291
(scattered cheers and applause)
731
00:33:15,782 --> 00:33:16,915

(turntabling)
736
00:34:05,332 --> 00:34:07,132
Hey! (crowd cheering)
737
00:34:07,201 --> 00:34:08,633
(crowd) Hey!
738
00:34:09,603 --> 00:34:11,102

00:34:13,507 --> 00:34:16,541
(beats going out of sync)
741
00:34:16,610 --> 00:34:18,677
(scratch)
742
00:34:18,745 --> 00:34:20,879
- (crowd groans)
- Oh, ho ho, the pressure.
743
00:34:20,948 --> 00:34:22,013
The pressure.
744
00:34:22,082 --> 00:34:24,516
Somebody lost control of their vehicle.
745
00:34:24,585 --> 00:34:27,118
(cheering and applause)
746
00:34:29,223 --> 00:34:30,989
Hey, man, close, but no cigar.
747
00:34:31,058 --> 00:34:32,991
Make some noise for DeeVee, y'all.
748
00:34:33,060 --> 00:34:34,893
(cheering and applause)
749
00:34:38,365 --> 00:34:40,298
Hey... congratulations, man.
750
00:34:40,367 --> 00:34:41,533
I was worried for a minute.
751
00:34:41,602 --> 00:34:43,702
(laughing)
752
00:34:43,813 --> 00:34:46,253
(cheering and applause)
753
00:34:46,306 --> 00:34:48,707
Now, that was fucking fantastic.
754
00:34:50,644 --> 00:34:52,010
Yo, Young God,
755
00:34:52,079 --> 00:34:55,047
every time I see you,
you doing big things, man.
756
00:34:55,115 --> 00:34:57,115
Ah, thank you, big homey.
757
00:34:57,184 --> 00:34:59,251
Word. We gotta get in the studio.
758
00:34:59,319 --> 00:35:00,919
Absolutely, without a doubt.
759
00:35:00,988 --> 00:35:02,220
Word.
760
00:35:02,289 --> 00:35:04,356
Yo, these shorties
trying to holler at you.
761
00:35:06,693 --> 00:35:07,893
Yeah?
762
00:35:07,961 --> 00:35:09,127
Mm-hmm.
763
00:35:09,196 --> 00:35:10,328
Word.
764
00:35:10,397 --> 00:35:12,197
765
00:35:12,266 --> 00:35:14,633
(crowd chatter)
766
00:35:16,870 --> 00:35:18,437
I'm Barry from Ray Fouray Records.
767
00:35:18,505 --> 00:35:20,439
I understand you manage Imani X.
768
00:35:20,507 --> 00:35:22,841
And I'm her mother, Ella Williams.
769
00:35:22,910 --> 00:35:24,443
Well, it's nice to meet you.
770
00:35:24,511 --> 00:35:26,044
Listen, I need your daughter
in the studio right now,
771
00:35:26,113 --> 00:35:27,873
and by right now, I mean
right now right now.
772
00:35:27,915 --> 00:35:28,847
Hold up, slim.
773
00:35:28,916 --> 00:35:31,550
I been hearing a lot of stuff about you,
774
00:35:31,618 --> 00:35:33,518
and most of it ain't good.
775
00:35:33,587 --> 00:35:36,354
If people ain't hating some,
you ain't doing it, right?
776
00:35:36,423 --> 00:35:38,190
I'm doing it.
777
00:35:38,258 --> 00:35:40,625
So let me ask you this.
778
00:35:40,694 --> 00:35:42,427
Like, what you do you need
to be on board?
779
00:35:42,496 --> 00:35:44,162
What... what do you really need?
780
00:35:44,231 --> 00:35:46,064
Two things.
781
00:35:46,133 --> 00:35:47,133
Okay.
782
00:35:47,167 --> 00:35:49,901
$25,000 up front.
783
00:35:51,405 --> 00:35:52,871
You got it.
784
00:35:52,940 --> 00:35:54,005
Cool. What else?
785
00:35:55,776 --> 00:35:58,677
I want that bitch out the picture.
786
00:36:07,354 --> 00:36:09,087
What? What's up?
787
00:36:09,156 --> 00:36:10,622
Barry's signing Imani X.
788
00:36:10,691 --> 00:36:12,357
- Really?
- Mm-hmm.
789
00:36:12,426 --> 00:36:14,593
Yo! And?
790
00:36:14,661 --> 00:36:17,629
And you ain't a part of her team.
791
00:36:17,698 --> 00:36:18,430
What?
792
00:36:18,499 --> 00:36:20,465
You reap what you sow.
793
00:36:26,473 --> 00:36:28,540
Hey, Nikki...
794
00:36:29,877 --> 00:36:31,643
Could I talk to you for a minute?
795
00:36:31,712 --> 00:36:33,712
Yeah, sure, what's up?
796
00:36:33,780 --> 00:36:38,817
Uh, it'd be great if you could
get your stuff out of my place.
797
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:41,887
Okay. Sure, I'll come by tonight.
798
00:36:41,955 --> 00:36:45,590
Great. I'll, uh,
I'll stay out later tonight.
799
00:36:49,930 --> 00:36:51,563
Perfect.
800
00:36:55,469 --> 00:36:58,637
801
00:37:25,999 --> 00:37:28,700

802
00:37:30,270 --> 00:37:32,671

00:38:00,167 --> 00:38:01,167
(kiss)
805
00:38:02,302 --> 00:38:04,436
Wanna look at Mommy's notes?
806
00:38:04,504 --> 00:38:05,737
What is that?
807
00:38:08,575 --> 00:38:10,408
What's that?
808
00:38:13,513 --> 00:38:14,813
(chuckles)
809
00:39:01,128 --> 00:39:02,594
(pounding on door)
810
00:39:04,097 --> 00:39:06,531
Jesus, David, I'm out.
811
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:07,866
You got it.

(announcer) Next time on "The Breaks"...
815
00:39:21,448 --> 00:39:22,881
Yo, y'all, I'm ready.
816
00:39:22,949 --> 00:39:23,949
817
00:39:23,984 --> 00:39:25,650
What's your angle in all this?
818
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:26,951
We don't know this girl.
819
00:39:28,288 --> 00:39:29,321
I need your help.
820
00:39:29,389 --> 00:39:31,189
We're good, the two of us.
821
00:39:31,258 --> 00:39:32,258
(both laughing)
822
00:39:34,594 --> 00:39:35,594
What's in the bag?
823
00:39:35,662 --> 00:39:38,096
You got some balls.
824
00:39:38,165 --> 00:39:41,099
He could die. My baby is not gonna die.
825
00:39:43,537 --> 00:39:45,003
Put the God damn gun down!
