171
00:09:34,783 --> 00:09:35,825
[low murmuring]

172
00:09:35,909 --> 00:09:36,826
Also...

173
00:09:37,452 --> 00:09:40,538
I'm collecting for Malik Hayes' service
next Friday.

174
00:09:42,373 --> 00:09:45,418
His mother could really use your help.
Okay?

175
00:09:46,377 --> 00:09:47,337
Thank you.

176
00:09:49,756 --> 00:09:50,715
Thank you.

177
00:09:52,592 --> 00:09:53,510
Thank you.

178
00:09:58,598 --> 00:09:59,724
Quality speech.

179
00:10:00,725 --> 00:10:02,185
[chuckles] Uplifting.

180
00:10:04,145 --> 00:10:04,979
What?

181
00:10:06,898 --> 00:10:08,900
I'm gonna need you to
talk to these fools in payroll.

182
00:10:08,983 --> 00:10:10,318
They won't give me my damn check.

183
00:10:10,401 --> 00:10:11,236
[scoffs]

184
00:10:11,694 --> 00:10:13,113
Listen to the announcements.

185
00:10:14,030 --> 00:10:15,698
Nobody's getting paid this week.

186
00:10:16,157 --> 00:10:18,243
Downtown messed up payroll again.

187
00:10:20,036 --> 00:10:21,871
I'm gonna need something to hold me over.

188
00:10:22,455 --> 00:10:23,373
Like 300.

189
00:10:24,582 --> 00:10:26,292
When am I going to get my nine back?

190
00:10:27,877 --> 00:10:29,379
Not the next time I get paid,

191
00:10:29,462 --> 00:10:31,131
but the next time

192
00:10:31,214 --> 00:10:32,465
after the next.

193
00:10:32,549 --> 00:10:33,675
Mm.

194
00:10:33,925 --> 00:10:34,926
On my soul.

195
00:10:36,261 --> 00:10:37,262
Or...

196
00:10:38,179 --> 00:10:41,724
this is just part of your plan
to get me to move back in?

197
00:10:43,143 --> 00:10:45,145
- [buzzer buzzing]
- Funny.

198
00:10:45,228 --> 00:10:47,188
[man on PA]
All persons without assigned homerooms,

199
00:10:47,272 --> 00:10:49,607
go to the south auditorium
for further instructions.

200
00:10:50,525 --> 00:10:51,359
[sighs]

201
00:10:51,442 --> 00:10:55,280
Today will be a chance to sign up for ROTC
and the Mathletes club...

202
00:10:55,363 --> 00:10:56,197
Tell you what.

203
00:10:58,324 --> 00:11:00,785
Bring me five kids from this list...

204
00:11:01,369 --> 00:11:02,579
and I'll give you the three.

205
00:11:04,873 --> 00:11:09,460
So, you want me to go find fools now,
but I'm a security guard.

206
00:11:11,004 --> 00:11:11,838
I secure shit.

207
00:11:12,505 --> 00:11:13,673
Then go secure your job.

208
00:11:15,633 --> 00:11:18,344
["Apache" playing]

209
00:11:26,311 --> 00:11:27,687
Hi, yes. I'm from the high school--

210
00:11:27,770 --> 00:11:28,813
[door slams shut]

211
00:11:38,156 --> 00:11:39,741
Hey, man, you seen Deshawn Hall?

212
00:11:39,824 --> 00:11:40,992
Man, fuck you.

213
00:11:42,076 --> 00:11:43,203
There's a line over here.

214
00:11:43,703 --> 00:11:44,704
Hey.

215
00:11:45,288 --> 00:11:47,123
- Y'all seen Tony?
- [man] Hey, fuck off, man.

216
00:11:47,874 --> 00:11:50,126
- Young buck, you seen Tony?
- Tony dead.

217
00:11:51,169 --> 00:11:53,880
Dead dead,
or not-around-here-no-more dead?

218
00:11:53,963 --> 00:11:56,090
Dead dead, motherfucker.
Fucked around and got smoked.

219
00:11:56,841 --> 00:11:57,800
Damn.

220
00:11:57,884 --> 00:11:59,219
Yo, let me hit that.

221
00:12:01,596 --> 00:12:04,015
Man... you're not supposed to be smoking.

222
00:12:04,515 --> 00:12:06,100
Nigga, you ain't supposed to be smoking.

223
00:12:06,851 --> 00:12:08,895
Fuck is wrong with this... Man.

224
00:12:08,978 --> 00:12:10,605
Come on, Trey Smith. Get down here.

225
00:12:12,690 --> 00:12:13,566
[intercom buzzes]

226
00:12:13,650 --> 00:12:14,776
Anybody home?

227
00:12:15,276 --> 00:12:16,361
Deshawn Hall?

228
00:12:19,072 --> 00:12:20,907
Deshawn, why you not in class, boy?

229
00:12:21,324 --> 00:12:22,200
Huh?

230
00:12:24,535 --> 00:12:28,498
Hey, if you come back to class,
you could win a McDonald's gift card.

231
00:12:28,998 --> 00:12:29,916
A'ight?

232
00:12:30,667 --> 00:12:32,085
They're giving away Big Macs.

233
00:12:32,168 --> 00:12:35,088
We got another metal detector opening.
Come on, let's go.

234
00:12:38,049 --> 00:12:39,759
[door buzzing]

235
00:12:43,137 --> 00:12:43,972
[knocking at door]

236
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,479
Hi. Is, uh, August Monroe here?

237
00:12:51,562 --> 00:12:52,647
Who's asking?

238
00:12:53,064 --> 00:12:55,900
Uh... Romelo Reese.
I work at the high school.

239
00:12:56,401 --> 00:13:00,863
It says August hasn't been
in class since last October.

240
00:13:01,906 --> 00:13:04,075
That can't be right. October?

241
00:13:04,158 --> 00:13:05,952
Mm-hmm. That's right.

242
00:13:07,078 --> 00:13:08,037
He been ill.

243
00:13:08,121 --> 00:13:10,164
[hip hop music blaring in background]

244
00:13:10,248 --> 00:13:13,626
Look, you all know this,
so what exactly are you here for?

245
00:13:17,547 --> 00:13:18,673
He been ill.

246
00:13:20,049 --> 00:13:21,175
Hm?

247
00:13:21,259 --> 00:13:24,512
I take my son's work to school.
Y'all already know this.

248
00:13:24,929 --> 00:13:27,265
Oh. Okay. That's cool.

249
00:13:29,851 --> 00:13:33,438
Yeah, but it's a budget thing.
They actually need him in the classroom.

250
00:13:33,521 --> 00:13:35,106
- A budget thing?
- Yeah.

251
00:13:37,233 --> 00:13:38,109
So...

252
00:13:39,861 --> 00:13:41,571
you gonna take a bullet for him?

253
00:13:41,654 --> 00:13:42,655
Well... [chuckles]

254
00:13:43,281 --> 00:13:45,908
That's actually not in my job description,

255
00:13:45,992 --> 00:13:47,118
so, no.

256
00:13:47,201 --> 00:13:48,119
Right.

257
00:13:48,536 --> 00:13:49,412
See...

258
00:13:50,455 --> 00:13:53,374
Y'all want me to send my son
off to the slaughter.

259
00:13:55,126 --> 00:13:57,253
I ain't gon' do it for no budget.

260
00:13:57,754 --> 00:13:58,963
[music continues]

261
00:14:02,884 --> 00:14:04,844
Is your son in the next room making music?

262
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,393
Well, thank you, Ms. Monroe,
for your time.

263
00:14:12,810 --> 00:14:14,354
Hey, uh...

264
00:14:15,396 --> 00:14:17,190
mind if I use your bathroom real quick?

265
00:14:18,358 --> 00:14:22,111
Ever since I got back from Iraq,
every five minutes, I gotta use one.

266
00:14:26,866 --> 00:14:27,867
Thank you.

267
00:14:40,171 --> 00:14:41,381
[music continues]

268
00:14:45,176 --> 00:14:47,387
[Ms. Monroe] Baby, turn the music down.

269
00:14:48,805 --> 00:14:50,723
[flushes toilet]

270
00:15:09,784 --> 00:15:10,868
[music stops]

271
00:15:11,744 --> 00:15:13,871
- I put my headphones on.
- [Romelo] Hey, man.

272
00:15:14,622 --> 00:15:16,499
Yo, man, that is cold as hell.

273
00:15:16,582 --> 00:15:19,502
Hey, hey. Hey, hey, hey, relax, man, look.
I work at the high school.

274
00:15:20,586 --> 00:15:23,423
All right? Yo, you make that beat?

275
00:15:25,299 --> 00:15:26,426
How long it take you?

276
00:15:29,762 --> 00:15:30,721
Damn.

277
00:15:31,889 --> 00:15:34,225
I ain't never met a deaf producer before,
man. How you--

278
00:15:34,809 --> 00:15:36,394
[raises voice] How you make a beat?

279
00:15:36,853 --> 00:15:39,730
Huh? You just feel the bass
and you just build around that?

280
00:15:41,399 --> 00:15:42,233
Two minutes.

281
00:15:43,025 --> 00:15:44,944
Two... minutes?

282
00:15:45,027 --> 00:15:47,029
Man, I swear to God,
you cold as hell, man.

283
00:15:47,113 --> 00:15:49,449
- [shouts] Ma! Mama! Ma!
- Hey!

284
00:15:49,532 --> 00:15:52,076
- Ma! Ma! Ma! [screeching]
- Hey, hey, hey...

285
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:53,911
What the hell are you doing?

286
00:15:53,995 --> 00:15:56,038
- I was just talking to him about music--
- Get out.

287
00:15:56,122 --> 00:15:57,498
Hey. Hey, wha--

288
00:15:58,082 --> 00:15:59,584
Hey, hey, big man.

289
00:15:59,667 --> 00:16:01,586
August, August, slow and steady. Come on.

290
00:16:01,669 --> 00:16:02,753
What's wrong with him?

291
00:16:02,837 --> 00:16:04,505
- Out through the mouth.
- What's going on?

292
00:16:04,589 --> 00:16:05,506
Big man, just breathe.

293
00:16:05,590 --> 00:16:06,424
Get out!

294
00:16:06,507 --> 00:16:09,427
Ma'am, I was just talking to him
about music. I'm a manager, not just--

295
00:16:09,510 --> 00:16:10,970
Get out!

296
00:16:11,053 --> 00:16:12,680
- Okay! Okay, ma'am.
- Get out!

297
00:16:13,931 --> 00:16:14,765
I just--

298
00:16:15,683 --> 00:16:16,934
[wheezing]

299
00:16:17,518 --> 00:16:18,936
[Ms. Monroe] August. Hey.

300
00:16:23,065 --> 00:16:26,319
[man on PA] Attention, students.
Please be advised, today at 2:30,

301
00:16:26,402 --> 00:16:28,905
we have our weekly lockdown drill
in the auditorium.

302
00:16:29,238 --> 00:16:30,990
Attendance is mandatory.

303
00:16:32,033 --> 00:16:35,036
- [man] Understand, ma'am, she's not--
- [Ms. Monroe] I don't care. Where is she?

304
00:16:35,119 --> 00:16:36,996
[man] Please,
you can't just walk in there.

305
00:16:37,079 --> 00:16:39,707
What the fuck is wrong with you people?

306
00:16:40,166 --> 00:16:41,000
Yeah.

307
00:16:41,083 --> 00:16:43,544
Well, I was coming out of the bathroom,
I heard music,

308
00:16:43,628 --> 00:16:46,380
went to where the music was playing,
kid started screaming.

309
00:16:46,464 --> 00:16:47,298
That's what happened.

310
00:16:47,381 --> 00:16:50,635
You went into a student's room
without parental supervision?

311
00:16:50,718 --> 00:16:53,638
Hey, hey, hey, hold up.
You're making it sound inappropriate.

312
00:16:53,721 --> 00:16:54,847
It was.

313
00:16:55,598 --> 00:16:57,099
The kid is incredible.

314
00:16:57,850 --> 00:16:59,227
All right, he's some type of...

315
00:16:59,852 --> 00:17:01,812
retard savant.

316
00:17:01,896 --> 00:17:04,690
Don't call him that. He's... He's fragile.

317
00:17:05,525 --> 00:17:06,984
He's a machine...

318
00:17:07,068 --> 00:17:09,487
that makes a beat a minute,
just like Tone.

319
00:17:09,570 --> 00:17:10,571
He's different.

320
00:17:11,155 --> 00:17:12,740
You're gon' make me regret this.

321
00:17:13,115 --> 00:17:15,243
You promised me
you were done with that music shit.

322
00:17:15,326 --> 00:17:17,537
You told me you were down
for this job, remember?

323
00:17:17,620 --> 00:17:19,330
I won't do nothing.

324
00:17:21,249 --> 00:17:22,124
On my soul.

Hey.

328
00:18:06,335 --> 00:18:07,795
I was holding the bell.

329
00:18:07,878 --> 00:18:09,714
Get away from my window
before I call the cops!

330
00:18:09,797 --> 00:18:10,631
A'ight.

331
00:18:11,132 --> 00:18:13,301
Just have an hour to talk music
before they get here.

332
00:18:13,384 --> 00:18:16,220
- I ain't supposed to talk to you.
- Harriet Tubman wasn't supposed to run.

333
00:18:16,304 --> 00:18:17,888
That doesn't make it a bad idea.

334
00:18:19,557 --> 00:18:22,268
Hey, hey, hey, Aug--
August, August, August, hey.

335
00:18:22,351 --> 00:18:24,395
- Hey, man, calm down, all right?
- [panting]

336
00:18:24,478 --> 00:18:25,396
Breathe.

337
00:18:27,064 --> 00:18:28,733
Breathe, come on, in and out.

338
00:18:29,150 --> 00:18:30,776
All right? Hey.

339
00:18:31,277 --> 00:18:34,113
That track the other day?
It was too fast, man.

340
00:18:34,864 --> 00:18:35,865
Slow it down.

341
00:18:36,741 --> 00:18:38,200
That's what all the great ones do.

342
00:18:39,035 --> 00:18:39,994
Here.

343
00:18:40,661 --> 00:18:41,871
I'mma leave you this.

344
00:18:44,665 --> 00:18:45,791
Clean up the cereal.

345

349
00:19:32,463 --> 00:19:33,964
[buzzer buzzing]

350
00:19:35,466 --> 00:19:37,510
All right. Come on, Oaktown 357. Let's go.

351
00:19:38,010 --> 00:19:40,096
- [beeping]
- You're good, young thug. Go.

352
00:19:40,304 --> 00:19:43,516
[man on PA] ...to the Malik Hayes family.
They could really use your support.

353
00:19:49,397 --> 00:19:51,107
[door buzzer buzzing]

354
00:20:06,789 --> 00:20:07,790
[Romelo] Damn.

355
00:20:08,541 --> 00:20:10,793
What'd you do,
pour the whole box of cereal in that bowl?

356
00:20:11,085 --> 00:20:13,129
I wasn't expecting you
to know about Nomad.

357
00:20:13,921 --> 00:20:17,299
Thought you was one of those
old head hip hop dudes.

358
00:20:17,383 --> 00:20:19,844
No, man, I go hard on my Brazilian shit.

359
00:20:20,845 --> 00:20:21,846
What you know about 'em?

360
00:20:21,929 --> 00:20:24,890
YouTube.
After J. Cole sampled Milton Nascimento,

361
00:20:24,974 --> 00:20:26,142
I went hard on Brazil.

362
00:20:26,225 --> 00:20:28,310
Yeah, I got some underground shit
from Trinidad, but...

363
00:20:28,811 --> 00:20:31,439
- couldn't fit it on the disc.
- Why you even use CDs?

364
00:20:31,522 --> 00:20:32,857
USB is better.

365
00:20:32,940 --> 00:20:36,277
Old head, old habits.
Man, I used to make tapes.

366
00:20:36,360 --> 00:20:40,281
You don't know nothing about
the pain of making the perfect mixtape.

367
00:20:40,364 --> 00:20:41,741
Look, August.

368
00:20:42,366 --> 00:20:43,951
I wanna help you with your music, man.

369
00:20:44,034 --> 00:20:45,703
You wanna make a bag of money?

370
00:20:46,620 --> 00:20:49,373
Why you shrugging?
Man, we gotta move on this, man.

371
00:20:49,457 --> 00:20:51,876
I gotta get you with the right MC,
get you some studio time.

372
00:20:51,959 --> 00:20:53,669
- We got label meetings--
- Can I do it online?

373
00:20:53,753 --> 00:20:54,670
Online?

374
00:20:55,588 --> 00:20:57,089
Nigga, do you know who I am?

375
00:20:57,173 --> 00:20:58,758
- Security guard at my school.
- No.

376
00:20:59,550 --> 00:21:02,428
Yeah, I am, but I'm also
a dope-ass manager, man.

377
00:21:02,803 --> 00:21:04,597
I'm the one that discovered Tony Bigs.

378
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:06,348
You know who Tony Bigs is, right?

379
00:21:06,432 --> 00:21:07,266
Everybody do.

380
00:21:07,349 --> 00:21:08,184
All right.

381
00:21:08,267 --> 00:21:10,269
But I ain't never heard nobody
talking about you.

382
00:21:10,352 --> 00:21:11,854
I created that nigga, man.

383
00:21:11,937 --> 00:21:13,355
I got him studio hours.

384
00:21:13,439 --> 00:21:16,066
I hounded GCI till they played his shit.

385
00:21:16,150 --> 00:21:17,067
That was all me.

386
00:21:17,526 --> 00:21:19,695
- Merch.
- On my mama's grave.

387
00:21:19,779 --> 00:21:20,946
You can't stain me.

388
00:21:21,030 --> 00:21:22,573
Check the liner notes, young'un.

389
00:21:22,656 --> 00:21:24,116
I'm all over that shit.

390
00:21:26,285 --> 00:21:30,498
I can make you the most famous
17-year-old in Roseland.

391
00:21:32,041 --> 00:21:33,125
Nah, I'm good.

392
00:21:33,209 --> 00:21:34,126
You're good?

393
00:21:34,835 --> 00:21:35,961
Don't look like it.

394
00:21:36,045 --> 00:21:37,963
They up a pole on these music cats.

395
00:21:39,799 --> 00:21:41,884
They killed Tone
while he was getting a sandwich.

396
00:21:41,967 --> 00:21:43,302

397

- They shot Bango. Lil' Jeff.
- [police radio chatter]

399
00:21:48,098 --> 00:21:51,310
You gonna have your ass in Paris
eating croissants and shit.

400
00:21:51,393 --> 00:21:53,604
Man, you think Kanye still kicking it
on the South Side?

401
00:21:53,687 --> 00:21:55,898
Hell, no, man. He up in Beverly Hills.

402
00:21:56,357 --> 00:21:57,942
Actually, he's in Calabasas.

403
00:21:58,025 --> 00:21:59,819
What's the difference? The nigga eatin'.

404
00:22:00,820 --> 00:22:01,904
You want to eat?

405
00:22:04,490 --> 00:22:05,699
[Romelo laughs]

406
00:22:08,327 --> 00:22:09,161
Hey.

407
00:22:09,703 --> 00:22:10,663
Ah.

408
00:22:12,289 --> 00:22:13,833
So you making house calls now?

[laughing]

410
00:22:18,295 --> 00:22:19,839
Deshawn came back today.

411
00:22:20,464 --> 00:22:21,298
Really?

412
00:22:21,382 --> 00:22:22,550
Mm-hmm.

413
00:22:24,009 --> 00:22:25,886
- So I got one.
- You got one.

414
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:30,808
Wanna come inside?

415
00:22:32,226 --> 00:22:33,727
I got that green tea you like.

416
00:22:41,110 --> 00:22:43,445

[Kari vocalizing]

424
00:23:13,642 --> 00:23:15,644
Okay. Okay, okay.

425

That thing look about good.

426
00:23:18,063 --> 00:23:20,441
[chuckles]
Don't worry, you'll get one, too.

427
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,236
Hey, I heard you using my new shit.

428
00:23:25,237 --> 00:23:26,655
And I'm gonna need my cut.

429
00:23:26,739 --> 00:23:28,115
That's my best hook yet.

430
00:23:28,198 --> 00:23:29,116
[chuckles]

431
00:23:30,034 --> 00:23:31,201
You'll get a credit.

432
00:23:32,661 --> 00:23:33,495
A credit?

433
00:23:34,538 --> 00:23:35,748
Boy, you must be crazy.

434
00:23:36,624 --> 00:23:38,417
I'm your big sister. Don't play me.

435
00:23:38,876 --> 00:23:39,919
Yeah, I see you looking.

436
00:23:40,002 --> 00:23:42,254
This is Chef Boyardee right here.
This is perfection.

437
00:23:42,338 --> 00:23:44,006
[August] Looking like Chef Cardio Arrest.

438
00:23:44,632 --> 00:23:46,634
Stop talking mess. Do you want one or not?

[smoke alarm beeping]

440
00:23:57,645 --> 00:23:59,730
August, what are you doing?

441
00:24:00,147 --> 00:24:01,231
Oh, my God!

442
00:24:07,112 --> 00:24:08,656
[muffled] Boy, what are you doing?

443
00:24:09,239 --> 00:24:10,407
What's wrong with you?

444
00:24:14,453 --> 00:24:15,287
Sorry, Mom.

445
00:24:16,038 --> 00:24:17,164
I-I forgot to watch it.

446
00:24:17,247 --> 00:24:18,916
[beeping continues]

447
00:24:29,218 --> 00:24:30,177
[groans]

448
00:24:32,429 --> 00:24:33,263
Hey.

449
00:24:34,264 --> 00:24:35,099
Where you going?

450
00:24:36,517 --> 00:24:37,893
I need my toothbrush.

451
00:24:38,686 --> 00:24:40,938
And my head scarf. I got to go home.

452
00:24:41,939 --> 00:24:42,982
Come on, babe.

453
00:24:44,149 --> 00:24:45,234
Come on. Get back in bed.

454
00:24:46,986 --> 00:24:47,820
Why?

455
00:24:49,321 --> 00:24:50,864
Because you're my wife.

456
00:24:51,740 --> 00:24:52,908
Estranged.

457
00:24:55,202 --> 00:24:56,578
I hate it when you say that.

458
00:24:58,872 --> 00:25:01,166
Makes it seem like
we don't like each other.

459
00:25:17,891 --> 00:25:18,892
What's this?

460
00:25:24,273 --> 00:25:25,983
Come on, Vanessa, you're still on this?

461
00:25:27,526 --> 00:25:28,610
I love you.

462
00:25:29,069 --> 00:25:32,740
Two people who file their taxes separately
can still love each other.

463
00:25:32,823 --> 00:25:34,742
We should be under one roof.

464
00:25:39,538 --> 00:25:40,748
Look, babe.

465
00:25:45,044 --> 00:25:47,212
I'm going to be the man
that you want me to be.

466
00:25:48,005 --> 00:25:49,339
I'm going to make you proud of me.

467
00:25:52,634 --> 00:25:56,180
[reporter] Another young life taken.
Another mother left grieving.

468
00:25:56,263 --> 00:26:00,142
Her daughter, just one of 14 people
killed by gun violence

469
00:26:00,225 --> 00:26:04,271
on a weekend that saw 54 Chicagoans
injured by gunfire.

470
00:26:04,730 --> 00:26:07,775
And still no answer
to the plague of violence

471
00:26:07,858 --> 00:26:10,569
that has become,
for so many, just another day...

472
00:26:10,652 --> 00:26:11,820
It's 2:30 a.m., Ma.

473
00:26:13,489 --> 00:26:14,948
Your ankle is gonna swell up.

474
00:26:16,784 --> 00:26:18,285
Come on, let's get you to bed.

475
00:26:18,952 --> 00:26:19,953
[TV turns off]

476
00:26:23,999 --> 00:26:26,418
[distant police siren wailing]

[beeps]

480
00:26:49,983 --> 00:26:50,859
Who is it?

481
00:26:50,943 --> 00:26:52,736
It's me. Come on, man. Buzz me in.

482
00:26:53,278 --> 00:26:54,113
[buzzing]

483
00:26:56,865 --> 00:26:58,450
[exhales deeply]

484
00:26:59,868 --> 00:27:02,496
[knocking at door]

485
00:27:02,579 --> 00:27:04,706
[Romelo's voice echoes] Come on, man.
You in or you out?

486
00:27:04,790 --> 00:27:06,667
[breathing heavily]

487
00:27:07,793 --> 00:27:09,795
Come on, man.
You already let me up. What's up?

488
00:27:09,878 --> 00:27:10,963
[knocking at door]

489
00:27:15,968 --> 00:27:17,261
You was right about the tempo.

490
00:27:18,470 --> 00:27:20,806
But the people need to hear
what you got locked up, man.

491
00:27:20,889 --> 00:27:22,391
They deserve to hear your gift.

492
00:27:22,474 --> 00:27:25,102
And if we can get your ass
some money, even better.

493
00:27:28,522 --> 00:27:30,107
Man, it's just got to be me and you.

494
00:27:30,524 --> 00:27:33,152
Can't do no shows. No meetings.

495
00:27:34,027 --> 00:27:36,196
Everything we do got to be in this house.

496
00:27:37,322 --> 00:27:39,366
Just need something to help my moms out.

497
00:27:40,284 --> 00:27:41,577

499
00:27:54,673 --> 00:27:56,133
[tempo changes]

500
00:28:00,804 --> 00:28:02,681
Okay, so now you just flexin' on me.

501
00:28:03,891 --> 00:28:04,808
Nah.

502
00:28:06,310 --> 00:28:07,352
Now I am.

503
00:28:07,436 --> 00:28:09,062
[beat changes]

504
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,362
Hey, hey, whoa, whoa.
Sound a little boomy right there.

505
00:28:19,698 --> 00:28:20,908
Speaker's kind of old.

506
00:28:21,658 --> 00:28:22,993
- [music stops]
- It was my pop's.

507
00:28:24,786 --> 00:28:28,665
Mama said he dodged a bunch of bullets
just to come home to a heart attack.

508
00:28:28,749 --> 00:28:29,583
Hm.

509
00:28:29,666 --> 00:28:31,210
Died waiting on the ambulance.

510
00:28:32,002 --> 00:28:32,961
Damn.

- [music stops]
- Yo, you got to go.

513
00:28:39,259 --> 00:28:41,470
Hey, what... Come on. Come on, man.

514
00:28:41,553 --> 00:28:43,222
How many more of those
you got stashed away?

515
00:28:43,305 --> 00:28:45,724
You gotta go. My mom gets home
in 11 minutes and 11 seconds.

516
00:28:45,807 --> 00:28:47,017
- You gotta go.
- Okay, man.

517
00:28:47,100 --> 00:28:49,978
That means I got at least, what,
eight, nine minutes before she get here.

518
00:28:50,062 --> 00:28:52,522
Hey, hey. Hey, hey, hey, August.

519
00:28:52,606 --> 00:28:53,690
Okay. I'm out.

[police siren blaring]

522
00:28:58,987 --> 00:29:00,906
[man] Nah, I don't think
that really works, man.

all that Uber money, I mean, shit.

1371

I should've told you about August sooner,
but it all just happened so sudden.

1372
01:13:35,077 --> 01:13:37,413
You are a staff member that I hired.

1373
01:13:37,496 --> 01:13:39,874
He is a student.
How do you think that makes me look?

1374
01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:43,920
He wasn't smoking, he wasn't drinking,
he was just out having a good time.

1375
01:13:44,003 --> 01:13:45,379
His mother could sue the school.

1376
01:13:45,463 --> 01:13:47,715
- Come on.
- She just had you arrested.

1377
01:13:49,050 --> 01:13:51,677
You know what?
As a matter of fact, this is my fault,

1378
01:13:51,761 --> 01:13:54,347
for believing that hustle
about you needing this damn job.

1379
01:13:54,430 --> 01:13:55,723
But I did need it.

01:14:02,271 --> 01:14:04,857
- Zero shine to that, trust me.
- Mm.

1383
01:14:04,941 --> 01:14:07,902
Vanessa, this kid is our way back in.

1384
01:14:08,319 --> 01:14:09,987
I'm really trying to help these kids,

1385
01:14:10,071 --> 01:14:12,114
and you out here
trying to get rich off of 'em.

1386
01:14:13,407 --> 01:14:15,701
- Hey, Vee, that is not--
- Don't fucking touch me.

1387
01:14:16,077 --> 01:14:18,913
I'm about a second away
from busting you in your damn mouth.

1388
01:14:19,956 --> 01:14:21,540
Just sign the damn papers.

1389
01:14:21,624 --> 01:14:23,960
- Vanessa, come on.
- Stop playing this house shit.

1390
01:14:25,753 --> 01:14:27,880
I just took the boy to a block party!

1391
01:14:29,131 --> 01:14:29,966
Really?

1392
01:14:31,592 --> 01:14:32,885
[car engine starting]

1393
01:14:32,969 --> 01:14:34,887
So, you're just gonna
leave me standing here, huh?

1394
01:14:59,996 --> 01:15:01,914
I wasn't trying to be disrespectful, Mom.

1395
01:15:02,915 --> 01:15:04,500
No one loves you more than me.

1396
01:15:07,586 --> 01:15:08,462
You know that, right?

1397
01:15:09,839 --> 01:15:11,507
And you know that I need you.

1398
01:15:13,050 --> 01:15:14,301
It's just you and me now.

1399
01:15:17,638 --> 01:15:19,223
- I just thought we was--
- [pounds table]

1400
01:15:19,306 --> 01:15:20,141
What?

1401
01:15:20,683 --> 01:15:22,435
You thought you'd be back
before I got home?

1402
01:15:22,852 --> 01:15:24,729
I got to be able to trust you
in this house.

1403
01:15:24,812 --> 01:15:27,106
Everybody liked the song
that me and Romelo made.

1404
01:15:28,232 --> 01:15:29,191
And...

1405
01:15:29,775 --> 01:15:30,735
Niyah was there.

1406
01:15:30,818 --> 01:15:31,819
Oh, Niyah?

1407
01:15:33,237 --> 01:15:35,156
Oh. So you got your nose open now.

1408
01:15:35,239 --> 01:15:36,866
Is that why you acting so crazy?

1409
01:15:36,949 --> 01:15:38,868
Oh, you think you're grown now, okay.

1410
01:15:40,244 --> 01:15:42,329
I mean, you're making decisions
that affect this house,

1411
01:15:42,413 --> 01:15:43,581
so you must think you grown.

1412
01:15:43,664 --> 01:15:44,915
All I did was go to a party.

1413
01:15:44,999 --> 01:15:47,626
And kids get killed at parties every day.

1414
01:15:48,461 --> 01:15:51,047
- I wasn't even thinking about that.
- Well, I know that's right.

1415
01:15:51,130 --> 01:15:53,007
If something had happened to you,
August...

1416
01:15:53,090 --> 01:15:55,217
Anything could've happened to you.

1417
01:15:55,301 --> 01:15:56,844
- But it didn't.
- And-- Don't.

1418
01:15:58,054 --> 01:16:00,556
Don't you make it seem like
I'm the crazy one.

1419
01:16:07,188 --> 01:16:08,439
I gotta go to work.

1420
01:16:21,077 --> 01:16:22,036
She's right.

1421
01:16:28,125 --> 01:16:29,251
[knocking at door]

1422
01:16:29,877 --> 01:16:31,170
[Romelo] Come on, man, open up.

1423
01:16:35,633 --> 01:16:36,550
I bought gyros.

1424
01:16:37,176 --> 01:16:38,010
I can't.

1425
01:16:38,094 --> 01:16:39,929
Come on, last night didn't end right.
All right?

1426
01:16:40,012 --> 01:16:42,556
But we got real momentum, August.
We got to keep moving on that.

1427
01:16:42,640 --> 01:16:43,599
Damn, man.

1428
01:16:44,475 --> 01:16:45,351
You just don't get it.

1429
01:16:45,434 --> 01:16:47,686
I should've never let you
talk me into all this stuff.

1430
01:16:49,939 --> 01:16:51,816
- My mom, she--
- Hey, look, hey, hey, August,

1431
01:16:51,899 --> 01:16:53,734
we got to keep moving on that, all right?

1432
01:16:53,818 --> 01:16:55,444
She'll get over it, man, trust me.

1433
01:16:55,528 --> 01:16:58,280
We can't stop the creative process, man,
look, because--

1434
01:16:59,532 --> 01:17:01,242
[door locking]

1435
01:17:04,578 --> 01:17:06,539
[Terrence]
You ever played billiards before?

1436
01:17:07,623 --> 01:17:10,584
She called it pool. I thought
maybe she was swinging. I wasn't sure.

1437
01:17:10,668 --> 01:17:12,628
- [Cabrini] Guys, kill the noise.
- [Terrence] Okay.

1438
01:17:12,711 --> 01:17:15,214
I'm saying we got to start
that cross-branding shit.

1439
01:17:15,297 --> 01:17:16,882
We got to brand you, get that drink,

1440
01:17:16,966 --> 01:17:19,343
the-- the Cabrini Martini,
you know what I'm saying?

1441
01:17:24,223 --> 01:17:25,474
What's going on in here?

1442
01:17:29,228 --> 01:17:30,229
[Romelo] Huh?

1443
01:17:32,606 --> 01:17:34,441
Sitting back thinking about
how you did Tone.

1444
01:17:34,859 --> 01:17:37,528
- That was grimy as shit, bro.
- You don't know nothing about that.

1445
01:17:39,238 --> 01:17:40,531
The karma not right.

1446
01:17:40,865 --> 01:17:42,241
You got to work on that redemption.

1447
01:17:43,033 --> 01:17:44,451
Mister, what did you do?

1448
01:17:45,119 --> 01:17:46,203
What'd I do?

1449
01:17:46,996 --> 01:17:47,913
Ten percent?

1450
01:17:48,497 --> 01:17:49,665
Of your ten percent?

1451
01:17:51,167 --> 01:17:52,334
That's the best I could get?

1452
01:17:52,418 --> 01:17:54,003
- Me?
- Yeah, nigga.

1453
01:17:54,086 --> 01:17:56,255
- [Mister scoffs]
- It ain't nothing personal, Ro.

1454
01:17:56,797 --> 01:17:57,923
You still my dog.

1455
01:17:58,382 --> 01:18:00,009
It's just business.

1456
01:18:00,092 --> 01:18:03,053
Terrence, come on, man. What the fuck
is going on? She is my artist.

1457
01:18:03,137 --> 01:18:05,514
It's what homegirl said.
It's nothing personal, man.

1458
01:18:05,598 --> 01:18:08,475
Come on, Mister. You know
I'm trying to get this shit right again.

1459
01:18:09,852 --> 01:18:12,521
Trying to get this shit--
Romelo, she's too big for you, dog.

1460
01:18:12,605 --> 01:18:13,522
What?

1461
01:18:14,023 --> 01:18:16,901
Dog, you had to come beg me
to let her open for free.

1462
01:18:16,984 --> 01:18:19,445
Hey. Terrence, fuck you, man!
Fuck you, man!

1463
01:18:19,528 --> 01:18:21,405
I came to you with
a motherfucking deal, man!

1464
01:18:21,488 --> 01:18:23,199
I put hard work into this shit, man!

1465
01:18:23,282 --> 01:18:24,867
You're not doing none of that. Back up.

1466
01:18:25,075 --> 01:18:27,161
Can't let you put your hands
on my partner like that.

1467
01:18:29,955 --> 01:18:31,874
- Your partner?
- Back up. My partner.

1468
01:18:33,209 --> 01:18:34,126
Oh.

1469
01:18:34,210 --> 01:18:36,462
We both know you would've
fucked this up, man.

1470
01:18:40,633 --> 01:18:41,634
Okay.

1471
01:18:44,094 --> 01:18:45,054
Fuck you.

1472
01:18:47,181 --> 01:18:50,809
Hey, man, it is what it is.
Cabrini's part of the Ill Note family now.

1473
01:18:52,645 --> 01:18:54,230
But you do recognize talent.

1474
01:18:55,022 --> 01:18:57,691
Yo, what about that, uh,
that producer kid, what's his name?

1475
01:18:58,943 --> 01:18:59,777
Austin?

1476
01:19:02,071 --> 01:19:03,656
[Terrence] He's all you got, Romelo.

1477
01:19:04,698 --> 01:19:06,033
Let's do business.

1478
01:19:13,290 --> 01:19:14,124
[exhales]

1479
01:19:20,839 --> 01:19:22,925
- What's up, man, how you been?
- Like you give a fuck.

1480
01:19:24,843 --> 01:19:25,970
So, what you say to her?

1481
01:19:26,053 --> 01:19:27,304
- What?
- Niyah.

1482
01:19:28,097 --> 01:19:30,474
She ain't talking to me.
I heard you and her been kicking it.

1483
01:19:30,557 --> 01:19:31,976
So I know you sneak dissin' on me.

1484
01:19:32,601 --> 01:19:34,228
- I didn't say nothing about you.
- Bullshit.

1485
01:19:34,311 --> 01:19:36,313
I ain't step to her all last year
because of you,

1486
01:19:36,397 --> 01:19:38,565
and now we talking,
and you just wanna pop back up?

1487
01:19:38,649 --> 01:19:39,942
That's some bitch-ass shit.

1488
01:19:41,277 --> 01:19:42,778
Why she like your fat ass anyway?

1489
01:19:43,320 --> 01:19:44,488
Unless you're fucking with me?

1490
01:19:46,740 --> 01:19:47,741
She like me.

1491
01:19:53,622 --> 01:19:55,040
[grunting]

1492
01:19:57,167 --> 01:19:58,877
[Laz] You're supposed to be
my homie, nigga!

1493
01:20:06,260 --> 01:20:07,386
Man, why you got that here?

1494
01:20:07,469 --> 01:20:09,054
I wasn't gonna dead your ass.
I always got it.

1495
01:20:09,138 --> 01:20:10,097
But you don't need it.

1496
01:20:10,180 --> 01:20:11,932
How the fuck you gonna tell me
what I need?

1497
01:20:12,016 --> 01:20:14,893
I'm out there doing what I gotta do,
and your ass up here not doing shit!

1498
01:20:17,604 --> 01:20:19,064
You gonna be there when I need you?

01:20:19,773 --> 01:20:20,607
Huh?

1500
01:20:20,983 --> 01:20:22,151
You gonna have my back?

1501
01:20:24,570 --> 01:20:25,946
That's what the fuck I thought.

1502
01:20:27,531 --> 01:20:29,450
I better not catch your ass
on the block again,

1503
01:20:29,533 --> 01:20:31,785
'cause I promise you
it won't be no words next time.

Don't worry about it.
I promise you, I'm good,

1515
01:21:09,448 --> 01:21:11,116
- I'll text you, all right?
- All right.

1516
01:21:12,284 --> 01:21:15,329

I can't tonight.

I don't know.

1523
01:21:46,735 --> 01:21:48,320
Stop acting like a little bitch!

1524
01:21:51,073 --> 01:21:53,075
- It ain't even like that.
- That's exactly what it is.

1525
01:21:53,158 --> 01:21:54,159
Your ass scared.

1526
01:21:55,202 --> 01:21:56,495
Got to make shit good again.

1527

The hell is wrong with you, August?

1528
01:21:58,247 --> 01:21:59,331
This Chicago.

You wrote me that song.

1533
01:22:08,841 --> 01:22:10,175
You took me to that show.

1534
01:22:11,593 --> 01:22:14,096
You got me standing outside
in this itchy-ass dress,

1535
01:22:14,179 --> 01:22:16,223
and you can't even come out
the damn house, nigga?

1536
01:22:16,306 --> 01:22:18,475
You embarrassed me in front of my friends!

1537
01:22:20,477 --> 01:22:21,812
Lose my number.

1538
01:22:25,732 --> 01:22:26,650
Niyah.

1539
01:22:31,196 --> 01:22:32,990
You gonna have more fun

[Ms. Monroe] Who is it?

1552
01:24:27,938 --> 01:24:28,939
Romelo.

1553
01:24:29,856 --> 01:24:31,692
Didn't I tell you
to stay away from my son?

1554
01:24:32,234 --> 01:24:35,487
I didn't come here for that.
I came to talk to you.

1555
01:24:35,904 --> 01:24:37,906
"You should've ran it by me first"?

1556
01:24:38,532 --> 01:24:39,658
That's your apology?

1557
01:24:39,741 --> 01:24:42,327
Hm. I'm not apologizing,
just explaining what happened.

1558
01:24:42,411 --> 01:24:43,954
Hell, I'm the one who went to jail.

1559
01:24:44,037 --> 01:24:47,249
You ever ask yourself why a grown-ass man
is hanging out with a teenager?

1560
01:24:48,000 --> 01:24:51,420
I'm just trying to show August
the bigger life. You know, he needs--

1561
01:24:51,503 --> 01:24:53,380
No, don't talk to me
about what my son needs.

1562
01:24:54,840 --> 01:24:56,216
He needs friends.

1563
01:24:57,301 --> 01:24:58,343
He needs a purpose.

1564
01:24:58,427 --> 01:25:01,763
No, he needs to make it
to his 18th birthday.

1565
01:25:01,847 --> 01:25:04,141
Your son is very talented.

1566
01:25:04,224 --> 01:25:06,226
Not too many people can do what he can.

1567
01:25:06,685 --> 01:25:09,855
He can do big things in this world,
but he's got to be in the world.

1568
01:25:12,649 --> 01:25:13,483
Listen.

1569
01:25:16,987 --> 01:25:18,322
Come on, take a listen.

1576

[August] Told you,
I can't do music no more.

1577
01:26:05,285 --> 01:26:07,245
You didn't have to get
all dramatic with it.

1578
01:26:09,956 --> 01:26:11,375
Hey, you know...

1579
01:26:13,960 --> 01:26:15,879

I don't know if I did it
'cause I liked it...

1583
01:26:26,473 --> 01:26:27,933
or I do it 'cause she liked it.

1584
01:26:29,017 --> 01:26:30,686
- Who?
- My sister.

1585
01:26:32,771 --> 01:26:34,439

big man.

that shit's burned.

Romelo, I just gave you 40 grand, man.

- Did you already forget that?

I'm not touching this money.

1736

- Why he give you that money for my music?
- Because he lied to us, baby.

1737
01:34:40,675 --> 01:34:44,637
It's complicated, all right? Look, we can
get a deal someplace else, trust me.

1738
01:34:44,721 --> 01:34:46,848
If you trust him,
you might end up like Tone.

1739
01:34:46,931 --> 01:34:48,975
Yeah. That was a thick-headed kid

1740
01:34:49,058 --> 01:34:51,686
who had no idea his best friend
was robbing his end.

1741

What's he talking about?

1742
01:34:52,812 --> 01:34:55,231
What am I talking about?
Around the time that Tone got killed,

1743
01:34:55,315 --> 01:34:57,901
this dude had his label so strapped

1744
01:34:57,984 --> 01:35:01,446
that he had to steal checks
from Tone's moms just to dig hisself out.

1745
01:35:04,282 --> 01:35:05,491
That was a long time ago.

1746

anything from your deal, August.

1749

Just a, uh... what was it, a pay bump?
And a producer credit for hisself.

Wasn't nothing good
about that deal, all right?

1778
01:37:12,452 --> 01:37:14,579
Believe me, there's better shit
out there for us--

1779

Man, you ain't been 100 about nothing,
from the jump.

1780

You right.

1782
01:37:28,092 --> 01:37:29,886
I was dead wrong about you.

1783
01:37:33,598 --> 01:37:36,726
You see that building way out there,
the one with the blue lights on it?

1784
01:37:38,227 --> 01:37:39,937
Me and Tone, we grew up right there.

1785

Man, I'm tired of you
throwing that nigga name in my face.

Hey.

01:38:01,501 --> 01:38:02,502
Look here, man.

1788
01:38:04,504 --> 01:38:06,672
I came up in a Robert Taylor Home...

from two floors down, man.

1790
01:38:10,635 --> 01:38:12,804
Next thing I know, we got our own imprint

and died in that motherfucker.

1796

I didn't know much back then,
but I knew one thing.

1797
01:38:37,286 --> 01:38:38,663
I was never going back.

1798
01:38:38,746 --> 01:38:41,040

to everyone.

how my life was supposed to be.
