>> I DON'T TAKE CARE
OF MY CHILD?
>> YOU DON'T.
YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO GIVE WHAT
THE COURTS TELL YOU TO GIVE.
YOU DON'T GIVE THAT.
>> I RECENTLY GOT SERVED PAPERS
FROM MY DAUGHTER'S MOTHER
FOR CHILD SUPPORT.
YO, LATER, HOMEY.
I'LL GIVE YOU YOUR MONEY.
WHY PEOPLE BE TELLING ME
THE SHOP IS CLOSED
AT 2:30 IN THE AFTERNOON?
WHO'S DUMB ENOUGH
TO SKIP OUT ON WORK AND THEN
POST PICTURES ON INSTAGRAM?
I'M DEMOTING WALT'S ASS.
THIS IS WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN.
THIS IS MY SHOP!
>> KIND OF MISS YOUR CRAZY ASS
RUNNING AROUND HERE.
FOLKS AT THE SHOP
MAY NOT BE FEELING ALEX,
BUT I AIN'T GOT NO BEEF
WITH HER.
>> SOMETIMES THINGS HAVE
TO FALL APART IN ORDER FOR
BETTER THINGS TO FALL INTO
PLACE.
>> RIGHT.
>> SO WE'RE NOT GOING BY RULES.
WE'RE HAVING TO DEAL WITH
[bleep] AS IT [bleep] GO!
>> LATELY, DUTCHESS' ATTITUDE
IS SCARY AS [bleep],
AND CEASER NEEDS TO RECOGNIZE
THAT SHE IS [bleep] UP
HIS BUSINESS RIGHT NOW.
>> YOU THINK WE'RE MOVING
TOO FAST?
>> I DON'T KNOW IF WE'RE ON
THE SAME PAGE WITH WHAT WE WANT.
'CAUSE IF WE'RE NOT,
THEN IT'S KIND OF A CONFLICT
OF INTEREST.
SO DO YOU WANT TO END THIS NOW?
[hip-hop music]
**
[hip-hop music]
*
>> COME HERE.
YOU KNOW WHY I ASKED YOU TO COME
WALK WITH LEROY WITH ME?
>> WHY?
>> I WANTED TO TALK TO YOU.
>> WHY YOU WANT TO TALK
IN THIS [bleep] COLD AS HELL?
>> WHAT IF I GOT TO GO AWAY
FOR SIX MONTHS?
SO MY BABY MOTHER--
SHE'S TAKING ME TO COURT AGAIN,
CLAIMING THAT SHE NEVER RECEIVED
A DOLLAR SINCE THE FIRST TIME
WE WENT, WHICH IS NOT TRUE.
BUT IF THE JUDGE BELIEVES HER,
I'M GOING TO JAIL.
I GOT A LOT ON MY PLATE.
I NEED YOU TO BE THERE.
>> I'M GOING TO BE THERE.
>> BUT I NEED THE OLD DUTCHESS
BACK.
'CAUSE YOU'VE BEEN ACTING
KIND OF STRANGE LATELY.
DUTCHESS' BEHAVIOR LATELY
IS CRAZY.
SHE HAS A SHORT FUSE.
SHE'S STARTING TO STAY
TO HERSELF.
HONESTLY, SHE'S ACTING
LIKE A BITCH.
>> IS THAT ALL YOU WANTED
TO TALK ABOUT?
>> I'M GOING THROUGH WILD
[bleep] RIGHT NOW.
I DON'T NEED ALL THIS DRAMA
FROM DUTCHESS ON TOP OF THIS.
I WANTED TO KNOW WHAT WAS
GOING ON.
>> NOTHING'S GOING ON.
I'M GOOD.
>> YOU SURE?
>> WORRY ABOUT YOUR OWN SELF.
WORRY ABOUT YOUR OWN PROBLEMS.
>> LISTEN,
I'M WORRYING ABOUT MY PROBLEMS,
BUT I GOT TO WORRY ABOUT YOU
TOO.
>> I'M FINE.
>> AND HONESTLY,
IF YOU'RE STRESSING ABOUT
SOMETHING WITH US,
YOU NEED TO LET ME KNOW.
>> YOU FINE.
I'M FINE.
WE FINE.
CEASE NEEDS TO JUST GIVE ME
SOME [bleep] SPACE.
I GOT [bleep] THAT I'M DEALING
WITH ON MY OWN.
I DON'T WANT TO TELL HIM
EVERYTHING RIGHT NOW,
SO I JUST NEED TO DEAL
WITH MY [bleep].
YOU PRYIN'.
>> I'M NOT PRYIN' NOTHING.
>> YOU ARE.
>> I FEEL THAT YOU'RE LYING.
IF I FEEL THAT YOU'RE LYING--
>> NOW I'M LYING.
>> WHY EVERY TIME WE TALK,
YOU GOT TO SHUT DOWN LIKE THIS?
>> AIN'T NOTHING WRONG WITH ME.
STOP [bleep] BADGERING ME.
>> I'M NOT BADGERING.
BUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?
>> I'M FINE.
WALK LEROY.
I'LL SEE YOU LATER.
>> WHERE YOU GOING?
I'M TRYING TO ASK YOU
A QUESTION, YO.
YO!
IN A RELATIONSHIP,
COMMUNICATION IS KEY.
IF ONE PERSON IS TRYING
TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE OTHER
AND THE OTHER ONE COMPLETELY
SHUTS DOWN,
MORE THAN LIKELY,
THAT RELATIONSHIP IS NOT GOING
TO LAST.
COME ON, LEROY.
SHOULD BE HAPPY YOU AIN'T GOT
A WOMAN.
THEY TOO DAMN DIFFICULT, YO.
>> * WHAT DOES IT TAKE
* WHAT DOES IT TAKE
* GET INSIDE, GET INSIDE
*YOUR HEAD *
* GET INSIDE, GET INSIDE YOUR
* GET INSIDE, GET INSIDE
*YOUR HEAD *
>> HEY, YOU GUYS.
>> YOU READY?
YOU READY TO STRIP DOWN?
>> [laughs]
AM I READY?
SO TODAY I HAVE A PHOTO SHOOT
FOR ROCKSMITH NYC,
AND I'M REALLY EXCITED.
NOW THAT I'M NOT BEING CONSUMED
WITH THE DAILY DRAMAS
FROM THE TATTOO SHOP,
I HAVE TIME TO FOCUS
ON MY PROJECTS.
SO GIVE ME THE RUNDOWN.
WHAT ARE WE DOING?
>> AND IT'S GOING TO BE
COLLABORATION--
ROCKSMITH, 2 DOPE BOYZ.
>> NICE, NICE.
>> SO WE'RE GOING AS EXPLICIT
AS POSSIBLE.
DOPE HOUSE.
>> LET'S BANG IT OUT, YOU GUYS.
>> GORGEOUS.
NICE, NICE.
>> FOR ME GROWING UP,
I WAS ALWAYS GETTING PICKED ON.
I NEVER FELT PRETTY.
MY CONFIDENCE WAS ALWAYS
BEING BROUGHT DOWN BY UGLY GIRLS
THAT, YOU KNOW,
HAD THEIR OWN DEMONS
THAT THEY COULDN'T FIGHT.
AND I STARTED TAKING PICTURES
AT 15,
BUT I DIDN'T GET MY FIRST BREAK
UNTIL, LIKE, A GOOD THREE YEARS
LATER.
[laughs]
NOW I'M A MODEL.
IT WAS ME WINNING.
IT WAS ME, YOU KNOW,
WORKING, WORKING,
NEVER GIVING UP,
NOT LISTENING TO WHAT PEOPLE
HAD TO SAY.
IT WAS ME SAYING "[bleep] YOU,
WATCH ME."
READY WHEN YOU ARE.
>> READY TO SHOOT.
>> OKAY, YOU GUYS.
[camera shutter clicking]
[upbeat dance music]
*
I FEEL VERY CHRISTMASSY.
*
>> COOL.
I THINK WE'RE GOOD.
THAT'S A WRAP.
>> YAY!
THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH.
THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN.
AT THE END OF THE DAY,
WHEN PEOPLE WANT TO SAY
YOU CAN'T DO THINGS,
YOU DO THEM.
THANK YOU.
SUCCESS IS THE BEST REVENGE.
[hip-hop music]
*
>> WHAT'S GOOD, MAN?
>> WHAT UP?
>> GOOD WITH YOU?
>> I'M ALL RIGHT.
>> SO I CLOSED DOWN THE SHOP
THE OTHER DAY,
AND CEASER FOUND OUT ABOUT IT
AND DEMOTED ME.
I WAS LIKE, "WHAT?"
I WAS KIND OF SURPRISED BY THAT,
'CAUSE, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN,
I DIDN'T THINK HE WOULD REALLY
DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
I KNEW YOU WAS GOING TO BE
UPSET, BUT--
>> HOW DO YOU EXPECT ME
TO ACT WITH YOU?
LIKE, EVERYBODY'S [bleep] UP,
YO.
[bleep] STARTING TO GET TO ME
NOW, I AIN'T GOING TO LIE.
THE REASON WHY I DEMOTED WALT
IS PLAIN AND SIMPLE.
I'M ABOUT MY MONEY, HOMEY.
YOU WANT TO GO MUSEUM HOPPING,
YOU WANT TO GET YOUR NAILS DONE
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY
WHILE MY SHOP IS CLOSED.
YOU BUGGIN' UP.
YOU LUCKY I DIDN'T SMACK FIRE
OUT OF YOU
AND FIRE YOUR DUMB ASS.
>> I HAD TO GO RUN AND PICK UP
SOME PAPERWORK.
YOU KNOW, I'M TRYING TO FIND
A PLACE AND ALL THAT STUFF.
THAT'S WHAT THAT WAS ABOUT.
>> I'M LOOKING AT INSTAGRAM,
I'M THINKING, "OH, THIS [bleep]
IS TRYING TO PLAY ME.
HE'S DOING THIS AND THAT
AND THE THIRD--
AND THE SHOP IS CLOSED."
>> BUT NOW WHEN YOU--
WE OPENED UP THE SHOP
IN THE MORNING, YOU KNOW--
>> EXACTLY.
>> I TOLD YOU.
YOU WAS LIKE,
"WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?"
I'M LIKE, "YO, I'M TRYING TO GO
GET MY NAILS DONE REAL QUICK."
>> I THOUGHT ALL THAT [bleep]
WAS GOING TO BE DONE.
IT'S 2:30 IN THE AFTERNOON.
>> THAT'S NOT WHAT I WAS DOING
AT 2:30 IN THE AFTERNOON.
>> WE HAVE TO RUN THIS [bleep]
MORE PROFESSIONALLY.
>> CAESAR'S THE TYPE THAT,
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN,
IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU DO.
HE ONLY SEES THE [bleep]
THAT YOU DON'T DO.
ONCE THAT ONE WRONG THING--
THAT'S ALL HE'S GOING TO FOCUS
ON.
"OH, YOU NEVER DO THIS
AND YOU NEVER DO THAT."
>> AS FAR AS THAT JOB,
YOU CAN'T DO THAT [bleep]
RIGHT NOW.
I'M GOING TO LET SASSY DO THAT
RIGHT NOW.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M GOING
TO DO WITH YOU RIGHT NOW.
>> I WORKED HARD.
LIKE, Y'ALL DON'T UNDERSTAND.
I WORKED HARD TO EVEN GET TO
WHERE I WAS AT TO JUST LOSE IT
FOR SOMETHING SO EASY.
LIKE, "WHAT?"
LIKE, IT'S KIND OF
DISAPPOINTING.
I'M NOT EVEN UPSET.
I'M JUST DISAPPOINTED THAT
YOU WOULD GO TO THIS EXTREME
OVER SOMETHING LIKE THIS, BRO.
LIKE, AFTER EVERYTHING
WE'VE BEEN THROUGH.
TOTALLY UNDERSTAND THAT,
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
FRUSTRATED ON THINGS GOING ON,
BUT, YOU KNOW,
LIKE I'VE ALWAYS BEEN DOING,
ANYTHING THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE,
IF I CAN, I WILL.
>> I'M GOING TO LET YOU KNOW
HOW WE'RE GOING TO GO ABOUT
THIS.
ALL RIGHT.
TALK TO YOU LATER.
[R&B music]
*
>> * THE SUN IS CREEPING IN
*AND A NEW SEASON BEGINS *
* OOH, OOH, OOH
>> GUESS WHO I'M GOING
TO TATTOO TODAY.
>> WHO ARE YOU TATTOOING?
>> MY BAIL BONDSMAN.
>> SHUT UP.
>> AWESOME.
>> [bleep] MAKING SURE YOUR
BLACK ASS IS STILL HERE.
>> WHEN I GOT BUSTED
A WHILE BACK FOR THAT GUN
CHARGE,
MY BAIL BONDSMAN--
HE TOLD ME THAT HE WANTED
TO GET A COVER-UP.
SO HE HITS ME UP,
HE TELLS ME THAT HE WANTS
TO COME BY THE SHOP
TO GET HIS TATTOO DONE TODAY.
>> ARE THEY, LIKE, COPS THOUGH?
LIKE--
>> [bleep]
>> THEY'RE NOT COPS.
THEY'RE JUST LICENSED
TO CARRY GUNS.
>> DO THEY HAVE BADGES
AND [bleep]?
>> [bleep] BADGES.
>> BUT WHAT DOES THEIR BADGE
SAY?
>> I THINK IT JUST SAYS,
"DON'T [bleep] WITH ME."
>> [laughs]
>> HE'S, LIKE, A DUDE THAT
FAILED POLICE ACADEMY.
>> MM-HMM.
>> THAT'S USUALLY WHAT
BAIL BONDSMEN ARE.
>> LIKE BOBCAT GOLDTHWAIT
[bleep].
>> LIKE BOBCAT GOLDTHWAIT.
>> I FORGOT WHAT HIS CHARACTER
WAS.
>> BAIL BONDSMEN ARE LIKE
BOBCAT.
>> MM-HMM.
>> THEM [bleep] IS POLICE, MAN.
>> HOW YOU JUST COMING OUT
COMBING YOUR BEARD, YO?
>> [laughs]
>> IF I WAS IN [bleep]'S
SITUATION,
I WOULDN'T WANT TO SEE
MY BAIL BONDSMEN UNLESS I WAS
GOING TO REPORT.
O'[bleep] BETTER NOT MESS UP.
HE'LL BE GOING TO JAIL
SOONER THAN WE ALL THINK.
>> OH.
>> OH, BOY.
>> THE [bleep] THE BACK.
[siren wailing]
>> WHEN I SEE THE BAIL BONDSMAN
WALK IN WITH HIS MUSCLE,
I'M JUST LIKE,
"WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?"
>> OH, AND HE'S SMOKING
AND [bleep].
OH, MAN.
>> HEY, WHAT'S GOING ON, MAN?
HOW YOU FEELING?
>> OH.
>> WHERE YOU BEEN?
[bleep].
>> OH!
>> RUN, RUN!
>> [bleep].
[laughter]
>> YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?
>> DID YOU HAVE ANY FAMILY
MEMBER AROUND, LIKE YOUR DAD,
GRANDMA?
>> I HAVEN'T SEEN
OR SPOKEN TO MY POPS
SINCE I WAS 15 YEARS OLD.
>> THAT BROKE MY HEART
TO HEAR MY FRIEND SAY THAT.
>> I WAS THINKING ABOUT TRYING
TO FIND MY POPS.
>> CAN'T BELIEVE I GOT TO DO
THIS [bleep] STUPID
COURT [bleep], YO.
IT'S A REAL EERIE FEELING
WAKING UP KNOWING THAT
THE NEXT MORNING YOU COULD BE
WAKING UP IN A JAIL CELL.
I DON'T KNOW HOW THAT [bleep]
GOING TO GO.
>> DUTCHESS.
CUZZIN TODD.
SO THIS IS WHAT I NEED DONE
FOR YOU.
I'M GETTING A TATTOO
ON MY PENIS.
[siren wailing]
>> WHERE YOU BEEN, MAN?
>> [bleep]
>> OH!
>> RUN, RUN!
>> [bleep]
>> HA, HA, HA.
VERY FUNNY,
MISTER BAIL BONDSMAN.
>> YOU NEVER HEARD THAT
EXPRESSION--
YOU CAN RUN BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE?
>> BUT SERIOUSLY THOUGH,
I KNOW I'M GOING TO HAVE TO DO
A GOOD TATTOO,
BECAUSE THIS IS MY
BAIL BONDSMAN,
AND IF I [bleep] UP ON THIS,
THEN WHO KNOWS WHAT'S GOING
TO HAPPEN?
I'LL PROBABLY BE IN JAIL
FOREVER.
TAKE A LOOK AT THAT.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
>> OH, DUDE, THAT'S AWESOME.
THIS IS SICK.
>> MAN, IF HE [bleep]
YOUR TATTOO UP,
SEND HIS ASS TO JAIL.
>> [bleep] TATTOO UP,
HE'S GOING BACK TO RIKERS
TONIGHT.
>> I'M HOPING YOU SCREW UP,
BECAUSE I MAKE MORE MONEY
THAT WAY.
>> [bleep],
YOU GOT 'EM BETTING AGAINST YOU.
>> LET ME SEE WHAT YOU GOT
RIGHT NOW, BRO.
>> OKAY.
>> IT'S PERFECT.
>> ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO AHEAD.
LET'S DO THIS THEN.
LET'S GET THIS STARTED.
ALL RIGHT.
BOOM.
>> BROTHER.
>> MY BROTHER FROM ANOTHER
MOTHER.
>> OH, MAN.
>> WHAT'S UP, MY BROTHER?
>> I THOUGHT NEXT TIME
I'D SEE YOU YOU'D BE ARRESTING
THIS CLOWN.
>> WELL, IF THIS ASS DOESN'T
MAKE THIS [bleep] NICE,
IT'S MEATLOAF SURPRISE
TONIGHT AT RIKERS.
>> YO.
HOOK HIS TATTOO UP, YO.
>> I GOT IT.
>> IF YOU MESS UP--
>> YOU GOING TO FIX IT?
>> HELL NO.
HE'S GOING TO RIKERS,
THEN I FIX IT.
>> TONIGHT, MEATLOAF SURPRISE.
>> YEAH, EXACTLY.
>> CEASE IS THE LAST ONE
WHO SHOULD BE MAKING JAIL JOKES.
HE HAS A CASE IN TWO DAYS,
AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
HE'S PROBABLY GOING TO BE IN
JAIL BEFORE I EVEN GO TO COURT.
>> * IN THE DARKNESS
* I HEAR 'EM CALLING *
* TRYING TO TAKE ME
* BUT I KEEP STALLING
*TRYING TO TAKE ME TO SEE *
* IT'S THE ORDINARY *
* THE ORDINARY
*BUT I DON'T WANT TO GO *
* I DON'T WANT TO GO *
*I DON'T WANT TO GO *
* GO, GO, GO, GO
* GO, GO
>> ALL RIGHT, BROTHER.
SO WE ARE ALL DONE HERE.
>> YO, O'[bleep],
LOOKS LIKE YOU HAVE ANOTHER WEEK
OF FREEDOM.
>> RIGHT.
>> [bleep]
I AIN'T COMING THIS WEEK.
>> ALL RIGHT, GOOD.
THAT BOUGHT ME ANOTHER WEEK.
>> YEAH.
YO, THAT LOOKS AWESOME, DUDE.
>> YEAH? YOU LIKE IT?
>> YEAH, MAN.
>> I'M GLAD THE BAIL BONDSMAN
IS HAPPY.
I REALLY HAD TO DO MY THING
AND DODGE AND A BULLET
WITH THIS ONE.
YEAH, LET ME WRAP THAT UP
FOR YOU AND EVERYTHING.
>> AWESOME.
>> AND LET YOU GET ON YOUR WAY
HOME.
>> * WE ARE
*NEVER GUARANTEED TODAY *
* SO I MAKE EVERY BREATH
* MY RIGHT
*WE ARE *
*LIVING ON THE EDGE *
*OF GREATNESS *
* OH, YEAH
* HOW ABOUT IT
* ESCAPE THE MATRIX
*OH, YEAH *
* CAN YOU TASTE IT
* OH, YEAH
* YOU COULD BE WEIGHTLESS
* OH, YEAH
*WITHOUT A SPACE SHIP, YEAH *
[hip-hop music]
*
>> HOLA.
>> WHAT'S GOOD, BABY?
>> SORRY IF I TOOK TOO LONG.
>> YEAH, YEAH, YEAH.
>> HOW ARE YOU, LOVE?
>> I'M GOOD.
I'M CHILLING.
JUST RELAXING.
EVER SINCE CEASER DEMOTED ME,
YOU KNOW, I WAS THINKING,
YOU KNOW, I COULD USE
THE OPPORTUNITY TO REALLY, LIKE,
EXPLORE SOME OF MY OTHER
PASSIONS,
ONE OF THEM BEING, YOU KNOW,
PHOTOGRAPHY.
I REACH OUT TO ALEX
BECAUSE ALEX IS NOT LETTING
WHATEVER'S GOING ON IN HER LIFE,
LIKE, STOP HER FROM DOING
WHAT SHE WANTS TO DO,
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
IT'S KIND OF COOL.
>> CHEERS.
>> YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
I WON'T SAY, LIKE, WE'RE ALIKE,
BUT I THINK DEFINITELY CAN
RELATE TO HER WITH THAT WHOLE
OUTCAST,
AND, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN,
NOT REALLY LETTING PEOPLE IN,
AND JUST LIKE [bleep]
DON'T REALLY CARE
WHAT PEOPLE THINK.
WHAT'S BEEN GOING ON WITH YOU,
LIKE, YOU KNOW,
WITH THE MODELING THING
SINCE YOU'VE BEEN, LIKE,
AWAY FROM THE SHOP
AND ALL THAT?
>> I GOT TO DO A GREAT
COLLABORATION WITH
2 DOPE BOYZ...
>> YEAH.
>> AND ROCKSMITH.
WHAT ABOUT YOU?
WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING MORE?
>> I MEAN, ME--
JUST BEEN, YOU KNOW,
JUST DOING WHAT I CAN.
I'M REALLY STARTING TO TAKE THIS
PHOTOGRAPHY THING MORE
SERIOUSLY.
I'M TRYING TO, LIKE, GET MY--
>> REALLY?
>> BUILD UP MY PORTFOLIO,
AND I WAS THINKING MAYBE,
YOU KNOW--
>> BRO, I'LL HELP YOU OUT.
>> YEAH.
>> ANY [bleep] WAY.
LET ME KNOW.
>> YOU KNOW.
>> WITHOUT A DOUBT.
WHEN WALT TOLD ME HIS
ASPIRATIONS IN PHOTOGRAPHY
AND ALL THAT,
THAT REALLY SHOCKED ME.
I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS SOMETHING
HE WANTED TO PURSUE SERIOUSLY,
SO I CAN ACTUALLY HELP HIM.
I CAN, YOU KNOW, BE HIS MUSE,
AND I CAN ALLOW HIM
TO PHOTOGRAPH ME.
RIGHT, YOU'VE ALWAYS TAKEN PIC--
YOU'VE TOOK--
YOU TOOK MY PICTURES WHEN
ME AND O'[bleep] DID OUR THING.
>> THAT'S THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF,
LIKE, ME PICKING UP THE CAMERA
IN THE FIRST PLACE.
THE FOLKS I GREW UP WITH
DON'T EVEN LEAVE THE BRONX.
THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT
THE OUTSIDE WORLD IS ABOUT.
I JUST WANT PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND
THAT THIS YOUNG BOY FROM
THE BRONX REALLY IS OUT HERE
DOING IT.
SPEAKING OF, LIKE, THE SHOP--
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THAT?
LIKE--
>> YOU KNOW WHAT I LEARNED?
YOU'VE MADE A FEW ENEMIES
IN YOUR LIFE, GOOD.
ALL THAT MEANS IS THAT
YOU STOOD UP FOR SOMETHING.
>> ALL THAT [bleep] THAT YOU'RE
PROBABLY LIKE--
IF YOU LOOK BACK--
CAN MAKE YOU CRY,
OR YOU FEEL RESENTFUL
OR BE ANGRY ABOUT--
IT MADE YOU WHO YOU ARE.
>> PAIN IS ONLY TEMPORARY.
>> NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.
PAIN IS FOREVER.
TRUST ME--
>> PAIN IS TEMPORARY.
>> FOR ME, LIKE,
I'M AN ELEPHANT.
LIKE, I REMEMBER EVERYTHING.
WHICH IS WHY I'M DOING
EVERYTHING I CAN TO NEVER
GO BACK.
YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO SEE ME
PLAYING NO CORNER NO MORE, EVER.
LIKE, ALL THAT "TIME HEALS"
[bleep]--NO, IT DON'T.
I WAS HOMELESS.
THREE YEARS AGO,
WALT WAS HOMELESS.
[exhales]
GOING TO PANTRY LINES,
SHELTERS.
WALKING AROUND WITH THE SAME
CLOTHES ON FOR A WHOLE MONTH.
PEOPLE LAUGHING AT YOU
IN SCHOOL.
YOUR MOTHER ROBBING YOU
THE DAY BEFORE YOUR GRADUATION.
I'VE BEEN THROUGH ALL THAT PAIN.
YOU'RE REALLY DEALING WITH
SOMEBODY THAT BEEN THROUGH
IT ALL.
>> BUT SEE, THE THING WITH YOU
IS THAT IF YOU WERE GOING
THROUGH SOMETHING
AND WE WERE ALL AT THE SHOP,
HONESTLY, NOBODY WOULD KNOW,
'CAUSE YOU'RE ALWAYS, LIKE,
HAPPY.
>> NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.
DON'T GET ME WRONG.
I'VE COME A LONG WAY,
'CAUSE I'VE LEARNED HOW TO DEAL
WITH IT, TO CONTROL IT.
YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?
>> DID YOU HAVE ANY FAMILY
MEMBER AROUND, LIKE YOUR DAD,
GRANDMA?
>> I DON'T GOT NONE OF THAT
[bleep].
I HAVEN'T SEEN OR SPOKEN TO MY
POPS SINCE I WAS 15 YEARS OLD.
>> THAT BROKE MY HEART--
BROKE MY HEART--
TO HEAR MY FRIEND SAY THAT.
>> I WAS THINKING ABOUT TRYING
TO FIND MY POPS, YOU KNOW.
'CAUSE I DON'T REALLY KNOW
IF HE'S EVEN, LIKE,
ALIVE OR NOT.
>> YO, ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT
TO DO THAT, THOUGH?
THAT COULD BE TOUGH.
>> IT DOESN'T MATTER,
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN,
WHAT YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH.
ALL THAT MATTERS
IS WHERE YOU'RE AT NOW.
>> RIGHT.
>> I AM THE TRUE DEFINITION
OF OVERCOMING THE STRUGGLE.
I COME FROM NOTHING.
NOTHING.
THAT'S WHY I CAN APPRECIATE
SIMPLE [bleep].
BECAUSE I'VE BEEN THROUGH IT.
>> RIGHT.
>> THAT'S WHY I CAN SIT DOWN
AND, LIKE, LAUGH AND JUST JOKE
AND WAKE UP,
FIRST THING IN THE MORNING
AND START DANCING.
PEOPLE BE LOOKING AT ME LIKE,
"YOU'RE CRAZY.
WHAT THE [bleep] IS WRONG
WITH YOU?
IT'S 7:00 IN THE MORNING."
[bleep] YOU BETTER BE HAPPY
YOU UP 7:00 IN THE MORNING
DANCING.
>> RIGHT--YOU'RE ALIVE.
>> IT'S A BLESSING.
AT FIRST, I USED TO BE MAD
AT MY LIFE,
BUT I'M GLAD I WENT THROUGH
ALL THAT PAIN.
I'M GLAD I WENT THROUGH
ALL OF THAT,
'CAUSE NOW I CAN APPRECIATE LIFE
A LITTLE MORE.
EVERYWHERE YOU GO,
PEOPLE ARE GOING THROUGH THINGS
PROBABLY TEN TIMES WORSE.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
BUT YOU'RE HERE.
YOU'RE BLESSED.
>> * THE TRUTH IS THAT
*WE WERE BLESSED *
*SOME SETTLE FOR A LOT LESS *
* AND WE KNOW THAT IT HAD
*TO END *
* EVEN IF IT DON'T FEEL LIKE *
* WOUNDS CAN MEND
*WE GOT TO LIVE IT *
* FOR A MINUTE
*GAVE IT ALL THAT WE COULD *
* GIVE IT
[hip-hop music]
*
>> I'M JUST IN A DIFFERENT SPACE
THAT I'VE NEVER BEEN IN.
>> OKAY.
>> YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
I'M A VERY AGGRESSIVE,
STRONG WOMAN.
I'M NOT USED TO HAVING
TO NOT BE MYSELF.
SO IT'S DEFINITELY SOME [bleep]
THAT I GOT TO GET USED TO.
I'M USED TO DEALING WITH STUFF
ON MY OWN,
AND THAT'S THE WAY I--
I'VE LIVED.
SO FOR ME TO BE THIS CLOSE
WITH CEASE, IT SCARES ME.
I DON'T WANT TO BE,
AT THE END OF THE DAY,
THE ONE STANDING THERE HURT.
IT'S DEFINITELY SOMETHING
DIFFERENT FOR ME,
SO IT IS SOMETHING THAT'S MOVING
AT A PACE THAT I AIN'T USED TO.
>> RIGHT.
>> BUT--
>> ARE YOU HAPPY THOUGH?
LIKE, ARE YOU HAPPY THE WAY THAT
THINGS ARE GOING?
WHERE IS IT GOING?
>> YEAH.
>> YOU KNOW?
>> I GUESS IT'S GOOD TO HAVE
SOMEBODY TO GO THROUGH
[bleep] WITH, ESPECIALLY SINCE
I AIN'T AT HOME.
THERE'S SOMETHING THAT I'VE BEEN
HOLDING ON TO
THAT I HAVEN'T TOLD ANYBODY--
NOT EVEN CEASER.
I DON'T KNOW HOW TO TELL HIM.
I JUST WANT TO SHUT DOWN.
I KNOW THINGS HAVE BEEN
DIFFICULT BETWEEN ME AND CEASE,
ESPECIALLY WITH THE BABY MAMA
DRAMA,
BUT HE'S TRYING TO MAKE IT WORK,
AND I'M GOING TO PUT FORTH
THE SAME EFFORT.
I CAN'T HOLD THIS IN ANY LONGER.
I GOT TO TELL CEASE
WHAT'S GOING ON WITH ME.
I WENT TO THE DOCTOR.
>> I THINK I HAD THIS
CONVERSATION BEFORE.
OH, YEAH,
WITH MY BABY MOTHER,
WHEN SHE TOLD ME SHE WAS
PREGNANT.
OH, [bleep].
>> PULL IT OUT.
SOON AS HE GOT IN THAT CHAIR,
HE BITCHED UP LIKE A [bleep]
4-YEAR-OLD.
>> ALL RIGHT, GUYS.
>> YO, YOU THE DJ, RIGHT?
WELL, WHERE THE BOOGIE AT?
NO, LIKE THIS.
PD&P.
* WHERE'S THE BOOGIE *
* DOWN WITH THE BOOGIE
* WHERE'S THE BOOGIE *
*SHOO-BE, YEAH *
>> STOP, BABY.
HAVE A REAL CONVERSATION.
STOP.
>> OKAY.
REAL CONVERSATION ABOUT WHAT?
>> ABOUT...
A SITUATION THAT WE GOT TO DEAL
WITH.
>> WAIT, I THINK I HAD
THIS CONVERSATION BEFORE.
OH, YEAH,
WITH MY BABY MOTHER,
WHEN SHE TOLD ME SHE WAS
PREGNANT.
KIDS ARE COMPLICATED,
AND ME AND DUTCHESS'
RELATIONSHIP IS COMPLICATED
ENOUGH.
>> I WENT TO THE DOCTOR.
>> OH, [bleep].
>> WHY YOU SAYING "OH, [bleep]"
FOR?
>> JUST TELL ME.
>> I MIGHT HAVE TO HAVE SURGERY.
MIGHT HAVE A, UM,
A HEART CONDITION
THAT IS KIND OF GENETIC.
I'M GOING THROUGH SOMETHING
THAT I NEVER THOUGHT
I WOULD BE GOING THROUGH
AT THIS AGE.
MY BLOOD PRESSURE'S OUT OF
CONTROL.
I HAVE CONSTANT CHEST PAINS.
I HAVE TROUBLE SLEEPING NOW.
MY MEDICINE MAKES ME SICK.
I'M NOT MYSELF.
I MAY HAVE TO HAVE SOMETHING
PLACED IN MY HEART
TO HELP FIX THE PROBLEM.
>> DUTCHESS.
I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS THIS BAD.
NOW I KNOW WHERE DUTCHESS' CRAZY
BEHAVIOR COMES FROM.
SHE'S TERRIFIED.
SHE'S TRYING TO BE STRONG.
MADE ME REALIZE HOW MUCH
I CARE FOR HER.
LIKE, HONESTLY,
I COULDN'T SEE MYSELF
WITHOUT HER NOW.
MAKES ME KNOW HOW IMPORTANT
SHE IS TO ME.
MM, MM, MM.
SO NOW IT LOOKS LIKE I'M GOING
TO HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF YOU.
>> [laughs]
IT WON'T BE HARD.
>> YOU BE STRESSING OUT
TOO MUCH.
I KEEP TELLING YOU.
>> I KNOW.
>> YOU BE FLIPPIN' SO MUCH.
I'LL HELP YOU OUT.
I'M GOING TO BUY YOU SOME
INCENSE AND SOME CANDLES TODAY,
AND [bleep] LIKE THAT.
NICE LITTLE PRAYER MAT.
AND YOU JUST GO, "OM."
AREN'T YOU SUPPOSED TO
CHALLENGE, LIKE, YOUR THIRD EYE,
OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT?
WHAT?
IT'S GOOD FOR YOU.
IT'S GOOD FOR YOUR SOUL.
>> MM-HMM.
>> AND I'LL MELLOW YOU OUT,
AND YOU WON'T HAVE TO HAVE--
YOU DON'T GOT TO DO NOTHING.
>> NO.
>> NO?
>> I'M GOING TO START
EATING BETTER AND WORKING OUT...
>> MM-HMM.
>> AND TRY TO MAKE IT BETTER,
BUT EVENTUALLY I'M PROBABLY
STILL GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE
THE OPERATION.
>> DON'T WORRY.
I'LL SPOON-FEED YOU
AS SOON AS YOU COME OUT, BABE.
>> [laughs]
>> THOUGHT YOU WAS ABOUT TO TELL
ME SOMETHING ELSE.
>> WHAT YOU THOUGHT
I WAS GOING TO TELL YOU?
>> OH, MAN, I THOUGHT THIS WAS
GOING TO START OFF WITH THE "P"
WORD.
>> [laughs]
>> WHEW.
MAN.
>> IF I WAS KNOCKED UP,
IT WOULD BE THAT BAD?
>> WHAT?
OF COURSE NOT, BABY.
>> MM-HMM.
[laughs]

CUZZIN TODD IS WHAT HAPPENS

BROAD IS PREGNANT.
A LOT OF FEMALES ARE TRYING
TO TRAP ME INTO HAVING MY CHILD,
AND I'VE BEEN DODGING IT.
WHAT HAPPENED WAS,
IT WAS A DRUNK NIGHT, SO--
YOU KNOW HOW THOSE GO.
THERE'S A TWIST, THOUGH.
SHE'S NOT CLAIMING ME
AS THE BABY FATHER, RIGHT?
>> SO WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?
>> PUT THE TIMING TOGETHER,
I'M, LIKE, 54% SURE
THAT I COULD POSSIBLY BE
THE FATHER TO THIS BABY.
>> HE MIGHT THINK IT'S HIS KID,
BUT I KNOW IT'S HIS KID.
I WASN'T THERE OR NOTHING,
BUT MY SPIDEY SENSE IS TINGLING.
THEY FINALLY GOT HIM.
>> SO WHAT THE [bleep] DO I DO?
DO I BE A PIECE OF [bleep]
AND DON'T SAY NOTHING
AND JUST LET THIS [bleep] ROCK
UNTIL IT OCCURS, OR DO--
>> BUT IF IT OCCURS
17 YEARS FROM NOW,
AND IT IS YOUR CHILD,
YOU JUST MISSED 17 YEARS
OF THAT CHILD'S LIFE.
>> THAT'S, LIKE,
THIS OTHER PERSON.
I DON'T KNOW WHERE THE [bleep]
THIS [bleep] CAME FROM.
THIS OTHER PERSON THOUGH--
THAT'S WHAT HE'S TELLING ME.
I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO,
YO.
>> I WAS KIND OF SURPRISED
AT TED'S REACTION.
I THINK TED'S GROWING UP.
MAN, MAN, MAN.
WHAT CAN I TELL YOU HERE?
WHEN I FIRST HEARD
MY BABY MOTHER WAS PREGNANT,
MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS,
"WE GOT TO GO TO THE CLINIC.
I DON'T WANT NO KID WITH YOU."
BUT THEY DID THE SONOGRAM
BEFORE THE ABORTION,
AND HER HEART WAS BEATING
STRONG.
I COULDN'T DO IT.
THAT [bleep] BROKE ME DOWN,
B.
>> I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW CEASE
HAD THOUGHTS OF ABORTING
CHEYENNE.
THAT WAS MY FIRST TIME HEARING
THAT, LIKE, HE ALMOST BROUGHT
A TEAR TO MY EYE.
IT TOTALLY MADE ME FEEL
100% MORE GUILTY.
>> MAN, [bleep] IT.
WHEN THE BABY COME OUT,
GET THAT [bleep] TESTED.
IF IT'S NOT YOURS,
[bleep] PARTY ON.

YOU DODGED A BULLET.
YOU GOT TO TAKE CARE
OF THIS [bleep].
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?
YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE [bleep]
EAT YOU ALIVE?
YOU'RE GOING TO START
LOSING WEIGHT.
THEN YOUR CURLS AIN'T GOING
TO BE CURLY NO MORE.
[bleep] GET FLAT.
LIKE, WHAT?
>> [bleep] CAN'T LOSE HIS CURLS.
>> CAN'T LOSE YOUR CURLS.
CAN'T LOSE THAT.
>> [bleep]
OH, MAN, YO.
>> IF IT DOES HAPPEN,
IT'S ABOUT TIME.
>> THAT'S ALL YOU CARE ABOUT
AT THE END OF THE DAY.
LIKE, IN YOUR HEAD--
>> IT'S REVENGE, YES, YES.
>> RIGHT.
>> WHY THE [bleep] SHOULD I BE
THE ONLY ONE, YO?
YOU RUN AROUND HAPPY.
I'M NOT [bleep] HAPPY.

PART.
>> WHAT?

I KNOW SHE CRAZY.
'CAUSE YOU DON'T LIKE
BLACK JOINTS.
>> YOU KNOW HER.
>> WHAT?
>> YOU KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE

>> YEAH, BUT THEY DON'T HAVE
A BABY MOTHER LIKE MINE.
