that nonsense out there?

Well, I know, Dad.
46
00:02:40,060 --> 00:02:42,836
That's why it was a gospel rap and not,
you know, something inappropriate.

Any rap is inappropriate
as far as I'm concerned.

00:08:05,919 --> 00:08:08,559
This club is on fire, put out your lights

LEVI: Let's go, let's go
174
00:08:09,756 --> 00:08:11,497
The party's goin' wild
Tonight's the night
175
00:08:11,558 --> 00:08:13,333
LEVI: Yo, yo, come on
176
00:08:13,393 --> 00:08:16,101
This club is on fire, put out your lights

(ALL CHEERING)
179
00:08:20,567 --> 00:08:22,444
All right, all right.
180
00:08:22,535 --> 00:08:25,414
Now this is how we do it
here on our street.
181
00:08:25,438 --> 00:08:27,543
It's summer break
so we give kids the beats
182
00:08:27,574 --> 00:08:28,882
to keep them off the streets.
183
00:08:28,908 --> 00:08:31,479
And Bling is still king!
184
00:08:32,045 --> 00:08:35,720
Wait! And one more thing.
185
00:08:36,716 --> 00:08:41,131
I will be takin' home the crown
at the Rap Grand Slam this year!
186
00:08:41,154 --> 00:08:42,963
(CROWD CHEERING)
187
00:08:44,324 --> 00:08:50,866
All of Atlanta will know who Bling
from Midtown is. Midtown, stand up!
188
00:08:51,231 --> 00:08:52,835
Let's go, let's go!
189
00:08:52,899 --> 00:08:54,901
(CHEERING CONTINUES)
190
00:09:00,006 --> 00:09:01,542
(TECHNO MUSIC PLAYING)
191
00:09:13,219 --> 00:09:14,323
I'm sorry.
192
00:09:14,354 --> 00:09:16,300
Yeah, you are sorry.
193
00:09:16,322 --> 00:09:18,393
You messed up my new shoes, stupid.
194
00:09:18,825 --> 00:09:21,999
You lucky you didn't do it
while I was spitting my hot rhymes.
195
00:09:22,028 --> 00:09:23,439
(LAUGHING)
196
00:09:23,530 --> 00:09:24,565
It wasn't that hot.
197
00:09:24,664 --> 00:09:25,768
What?
198
00:09:25,799 --> 00:09:28,177
No, he did not just call me out!
199
00:09:29,135 --> 00:09:32,139
(RAPPING) Listen up, y'all
We got a brain to find
200
00:09:32,172 --> 00:09:34,743
'Cause this whippersnapper's
done lost his mind
201
00:09:34,774 --> 00:09:36,412
I'm getting rich off my words
202
00:09:36,443 --> 00:09:39,219
But now I'm getting challenged
by "revenge of the nerds"
203
00:09:39,245 --> 00:09:40,656
- (ALL LAUGHING)
- Whoa!
204
00:09:40,980 --> 00:09:44,553
Is that the best you can do?
"Revenge of the nerds"?
205
00:09:44,584 --> 00:09:45,858
I mean, come on, man.
That's just way too easy.
206
00:09:45,885 --> 00:09:48,331
You got some basic skill,
I'll give you that.
207
00:09:48,354 --> 00:09:51,597
But you ain't all that with the rhymes.
208
00:09:51,858 --> 00:09:52,893
Oh.
209
00:09:52,959 --> 00:09:54,632
Oh, really, Mr. Nerd?
210
00:09:55,795 --> 00:09:57,206
So what you really trying to say?
211
00:09:57,497 --> 00:09:59,477
I can come up five better,
212
00:09:59,499 --> 00:10:01,240
and more clever ways
that you could've dissed me.
213
00:10:01,968 --> 00:10:04,847
Five? Please! In your dreams.
214
00:10:05,939 --> 00:10:08,476
(RAPPING) One, I'm tripping literally
215
00:10:08,775 --> 00:10:10,413
I should be dish-washing
216
00:10:10,677 --> 00:10:14,284
Cause I got bow-legged knees
and often they be cross:'n'
217
00:10:14,414 --> 00:10:16,155
Go ahead and ask my bosses
218
00:10:16,249 --> 00:10:18,286
They'll tell you that I'm clumsy
219
00:10:18,384 --> 00:10:22,560
I'll probably fall into your fist
so you won't have to punch me
220
00:10:22,655 --> 00:10:24,191
Yeah! Clean it up!
221
00:10:26,092 --> 00:10:27,503
Let's go, baby! Come on.
222
00:10:29,896 --> 00:10:32,137
(RAPPING) Two, I'm vegetarian
223
00:10:32,265 --> 00:10:33,972
So I don't want no beef
224
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,305
You floss expensive jewelry
225
00:10:36,336 --> 00:10:37,872
I floss my crooked teeth
226
00:10:38,104 --> 00:10:41,950
I sing in church choir
My daddy is a reverend
227
00:10:41,975 --> 00:10:46,321
I tried to be a gangster,
but my curfew was 11:00
228
00:10:53,419 --> 00:10:56,195
Three, I drive my Vespa
through the streets
229
00:10:56,256 --> 00:10:57,826
And wear my helmet proud
230
00:10:57,991 --> 00:10:59,902
Do my homework every night
231
00:10:59,926 --> 00:11:02,372
And then come here
to this rowdy crowd
232
00:11:02,462 --> 00:11:05,739
I signed up for the battle
Filled in all the basics
233
00:11:05,765 --> 00:11:08,006
But when they saw that it was me
234
00:11:08,034 --> 00:11:10,480
They put me on the wait list
235
00:11:17,277 --> 00:11:20,121
Four, I run from bullies in the streets
236
00:11:20,146 --> 00:11:21,750
I don't know how to fight
237
00:11:21,781 --> 00:11:23,783
I don't throw lefts or rights
238
00:11:23,816 --> 00:11:25,352
I just left and sprinted right
239
00:11:25,752 --> 00:11:29,427
I'm skinny, y'all
Scrawny arms and a tiny chest
240
00:11:29,656 --> 00:11:33,627
Shoot, I could hide behind that pole
if I just hold my breath
241
00:11:35,562 --> 00:11:36,666
(EXCLAIMING)
242
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,537
Five, my apron looks like a dress
243
00:11:43,570 --> 00:11:45,516
I should twirl around
like a pretty princess
244
00:11:45,538 --> 00:11:47,313
I'm not a busboy, I'm a waitress
245
00:11:47,340 --> 00:11:49,377
But I can't get the drinks right
Taste test
246
00:11:49,409 --> 00:11:51,446
Let me buy another round
for your guest
247
00:11:51,477 --> 00:11:53,457
My hands got sweaty
and I lost my grip
248
00:11:53,479 --> 00:11:55,459
My shoes don't fit
They're hand-me-downs
249
00:11:55,481 --> 00:11:57,461
From the Salvation Army
right downtown
250
00:11:57,483 --> 00:11:59,463
When I walk into the room,
the lights go down
251
00:11:59,485 --> 00:12:01,328
I'm so ugly, Mom won't hug me
252
00:12:01,387 --> 00:12:03,230
And that's 10 better disses than you
253
00:12:03,256 --> 00:12:05,532
I beat myself
Something you couldn't do
254
00:12:06,426 --> 00:12:08,167
Really? Really?
255
00:12:24,877 --> 00:12:26,288
Yo, yo, everybody!
256
00:12:28,081 --> 00:12:32,496
It seems as if Urkel over here
257
00:12:33,019 --> 00:12:37,195
thinks he's a pretty clever rapper.
Yeah, pretty clever.
258
00:12:37,690 --> 00:12:40,694
So, I'm calling him out.
259
00:12:40,727 --> 00:12:43,799
ALL: (CHANTING) Urkel, Urkel, Urkel,
260
00:12:43,830 --> 00:12:47,107
Urkel, Urkel, Urkel,
261
00:12:47,133 --> 00:12:50,808
Urkel, Urkel, Urkel.
262
00:12:59,512 --> 00:13:01,856
KRIS: Yo, Cy,
don't worry about that clown.
263
00:13:01,881 --> 00:13:04,122
That fake jewelry
is gonna put a rash around his neck.
264
00:13:04,183 --> 00:13:05,890
He straight-up embarrassed me.
265
00:13:05,919 --> 00:13:08,229
One day he'll get his payback.
266
00:13:08,254 --> 00:13:09,961
But seriously, Cy,
what's your deal, man?
267
00:13:09,989 --> 00:13:11,900
'Cause I know you got
them dope rhymes in the notepad.
268
00:13:13,393 --> 00:13:16,203
I don't know. It's just...
269
00:13:16,229 --> 00:13:19,142
It's different
when I'm writing songs by myself.
270
00:13:19,165 --> 00:13:21,475
I can't do all that up on the stage
when everyone's watching me.
271
00:13:22,201 --> 00:13:26,047
Cy. All you need to do
is get your flow tight,
272
00:13:26,072 --> 00:13:28,382
get some new phat gear,
work on your stage presence,
273
00:13:28,408 --> 00:13:31,651
hit the gym a lil' bit, get a haircut,
moisturize that ashy skin,
274
00:13:31,678 --> 00:13:34,659
and if you put some zit cream on that
forehead, you'll be straight, dude!
275
00:13:34,681 --> 00:13:36,217
I'm telling you.
276
00:13:37,083 --> 00:13:39,723
Oh, and then I'll be straight?
277
00:13:42,422 --> 00:13:44,959
- Yo, show's on. Come on.
- All right, bro, turn it on.
278
00:13:47,927 --> 00:13:52,171
EB: Welcome to Eb&Flo, the best urban
music showcase on the planet.

282
00:13:59,972 --> 00:14:02,043
KRIS: Dang, man, she is looking fine!
283
00:14:02,675 --> 00:14:04,677
Dude, just think, we were all
in third grade together.
284
00:14:04,711 --> 00:14:06,816
She was missing
a front tooth, remember?
285
00:14:07,180 --> 00:14:09,023
She's not missing anything now.
286
00:14:09,082 --> 00:14:11,619
We're here to talk to Roxie
about her new video.
287
00:14:11,851 --> 00:14:14,388
What's up with this group
criticizing your music
288
00:14:14,420 --> 00:14:16,058
and how you look in the video?
289
00:14:16,589 --> 00:14:17,829
What else should! wear, a parka?
290
00:14:18,224 --> 00:14:20,465
So I put on a little somethin'.
It's not a crime.
291
00:14:21,127 --> 00:14:22,470
Oh, it's criminal.
292
00:14:22,995 --> 00:14:24,838
Rumor has it that
you and Atlanta Records
293
00:14:24,864 --> 00:14:26,605
are working on a hot new project.
294
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,237
That's right! You make it, we break it.
295
00:14:29,268 --> 00:14:31,248
It's a contest where one amateur artist
296
00:14:31,270 --> 00:14:33,910
will get their song produced
by my record label
297
00:14:33,940 --> 00:14:35,942
and made as a video for On The Beat.
298
00:14:35,975 --> 00:14:37,750
Just send in a track and a recent photo
299
00:14:37,777 --> 00:14:40,417
and the winner
will be announced live on EB&Flo.
300
00:14:40,446 --> 00:14:41,925
- You're so cool! (CHUCKLING)
- Right here!
301
00:14:42,281 --> 00:14:45,728
So, listen. What do you say
to those wannabe stars out there
302
00:14:45,752 --> 00:14:47,857
who want to enter a song?
303
00:14:47,887 --> 00:14:49,833
Just keep it real
and write from your heart.
304
00:14:49,856 --> 00:14:54,828
EB: All right, okay! Now let's hear it
for Atlantaās own Roxie!
305
00:14:54,861 --> 00:14:55,965
(CROWD CHEERING)
306
00:14:56,562 --> 00:14:58,132
I'm gonna submit a song for the contest.
307
00:14:58,231 --> 00:15:02,111
- For real?
- Yeah. I'm gonna win it.
308
00:15:02,135 --> 00:15:03,637
(CHUCKLES)
309
00:15:04,003 --> 00:15:05,949
I don't know about all that.
310
00:15:05,972 --> 00:15:07,042
WW you say that?
311
00:15:07,073 --> 00:15:08,518
'Cause I'm doin' a song
for the contest, too.
312
00:15:08,541 --> 00:15:10,714
'Bout to bust my rap skills
out on you, son.
313
00:15:10,743 --> 00:15:12,347
Okay, we'll see who has skills.
314
00:15:12,411 --> 00:15:15,255
And that would be me. All right, bro,
it's getting late. I'll catch you later?
315
00:15:15,281 --> 00:15:18,125
- You know it.
- All righty. Peace.
316
00:15:29,562 --> 00:15:32,975
CYRUS: (RAPPING) Her beauty's crazy
I watch her from the crowd
317
00:15:32,999 --> 00:15:36,913
Her voice is so amazing
She'd make her momma proud
318
00:15:36,936 --> 00:15:40,543
I tried to send her flowers
But she has no address
319
00:15:40,573 --> 00:15:44,350
Her home is in my heart
It's like she never left
320
00:15:44,710 --> 00:15:46,212
(SINGING) This is more than a crush
321
00:15:46,245 --> 00:15:48,020
More than a like-like
More than a love
322
00:15:48,481 --> 00:15:52,520
Baby, imma make you mine
And I ain't givin' up
323
00:15:52,552 --> 00:15:53,690
This is more than a crush
324
00:15:53,719 --> 00:15:55,995
More than a like-like
More than a love
325
00:15:56,022 --> 00:15:59,401
Baby, imma make you mine
And I ain't givin' up
326
00:15:59,425 --> 00:16:04,602
Don't run away
Don't run away from the truth
327
00:16:04,630 --> 00:16:06,906
'Cause I'm not giving up on you

00:16:07,333 --> 00:16:12,214
Don't run away
Don't run away from the truth

'Cause I'm not giving up on you
330
00:16:14,507 --> 00:16:16,316
(RAPPING)
Normally I couldn't turn your head
331
00:16:16,342 --> 00:16:18,253
That's why I had to write this instead
332
00:16:18,277 --> 00:16:20,223
Let's be friends
Start out slow
333
00:16:20,246 --> 00:16:24,058
Get to know you beyond your glow
You're more than meets the eye
334
00:16:24,083 --> 00:16:27,656
Girl you're pterodactyl fly
Way back when you knew my name
335
00:16:27,687 --> 00:16:29,963
(DISTORTED)
Tell the truth is what I claim.
336
00:16:29,989 --> 00:16:34,768
(SINGING) Don't run away
Don't run away from the truth
337
00:16:34,794 --> 00:16:37,138
'Cause I'm not giving up on you
338
00:16:37,163 --> 00:16:42,374
Don't run away

Somewhere where they can't find us

write that song about me?

Come on, girl. What you think?
692
00:33:50,328 --> 00:33:53,832
I think, if this blows up like I expect,
people will be looking for another song.

00:33:57,469 --> 00:34:00,814
Yeah. Maybe when I record my next CD
we can make some music together.

Yeah. Yeah, baby.
I thought you'd never ask.

00:41:58,216 --> 00:42:00,924
No, I mean real old-school singers,
841
00:42:00,952 --> 00:42:04,593
not new, hot and flashy singers
such as yourself.
842
00:42:04,856 --> 00:42:07,530
Well, I made a few phone calls,
stroked a few egos
843
00:42:07,559 --> 00:42:11,564
and I convinced them that Roxie, here,
is going to help boost their ticket sales.
844
00:42:12,363 --> 00:42:13,603
I don't know, Lyla.
845
00:42:13,631 --> 00:42:16,077
I mean, The Grand Slam audience
isn't very forgiving.
846
00:42:16,100 --> 00:42:18,979
They don't care how many CDs
you've sold, you just better be good.
847
00:42:19,404 --> 00:42:21,406
Yeah. And you will be.
848
00:42:21,706 --> 00:42:23,208
FLY PHIL: Yo, yo, yo!
849
00:42:23,474 --> 00:42:25,010
Yo! What's up?
850
00:42:25,043 --> 00:42:26,283
We gettin' busy or what, yo?
851
00:42:26,311 --> 00:42:27,949
You know it!
852
00:42:27,979 --> 00:42:30,084
Okay. Okay, who are you guys?
853
00:42:30,215 --> 00:42:32,058
Oh, these are the dancers for my video.
854
00:42:32,283 --> 00:42:33,819
ALL: Dancers?
855
00:42:44,328 --> 00:42:45,636
Oh, you came to work?
856
00:42:45,897 --> 00:42:47,604
Levi, I should've called.
857
00:42:47,632 --> 00:42:50,135
Yeah, you should have.
I had a full house last night.
858
00:42:50,301 --> 00:42:55,614
Sorry. I forgot and I fell asleep.
Just in a really weird zone.
859
00:42:56,240 --> 00:42:58,777
- Weird zone, huh?
- Yeah.
860
00:42:59,811 --> 00:43:01,119
Is this about that girl, Roxie?
861
00:43:03,748 --> 00:43:06,126
No. No. I mean,
why would you say that?
862
00:43:06,784 --> 00:43:11,164
Just look at you,
your shoulders are all slumped,
863
00:43:11,189 --> 00:43:13,533
you're lookin' all lost and pitiful.
864
00:43:13,558 --> 00:43:15,469
(LAUGHING)
That girl's got your nose wide open.
865
00:43:15,693 --> 00:43:16,967
Is it that obvious?
866
00:43:16,995 --> 00:43:19,202
Yes, it is. Yes, it is.
867
00:43:19,931 --> 00:43:22,434
Did you tell her the truth?
That you're Truth?
868
00:43:22,467 --> 00:43:23,571
Not exactly.
869
00:43:23,801 --> 00:43:25,212
What does that mean?
870
00:43:25,670 --> 00:43:28,412
Well, Kris is into her and he asked me
if I would help him hook up with her.
871
00:43:28,439 --> 00:43:31,249
So, for now, Roxie is going to
think that Kris is Truth.
872
00:43:31,709 --> 00:43:33,950
What? Man, that is just dumb! No.
873
00:43:33,978 --> 00:43:35,719
Listen, now you tell Kris
that you were feelin' her first
874
00:43:35,747 --> 00:43:36,953
and he needs to back on up!
875
00:43:36,981 --> 00:43:38,255
I can't do that.
876
00:43:38,282 --> 00:43:40,523
I mean, me and Kris been homies
since we were, like, five years old.
877
00:43:40,551 --> 00:43:41,689
I don't wanna be a hater.
878
00:43:41,986 --> 00:43:45,092
All right, Cyrus, there's nothing wrong
879
00:43:45,123 --> 00:43:47,660
with you tryin' to be
a good friend to Kris.
880
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:51,600
But if you use that
as an excuse to not man-up
881
00:43:51,629 --> 00:43:53,631
because you're afraid
you might get rejected?
882
00:43:55,666 --> 00:44:00,137
Okay, I can understand that, too.
But you can't live like that forever.
883
00:44:02,407 --> 00:44:04,512
Ah, yeah, I thought so.
884
00:44:05,009 --> 00:44:07,853
You won't tell your daddy you work here
because he won't approve.
885
00:44:07,879 --> 00:44:10,018
You freeze up
when Bling gets in your face
886
00:44:10,048 --> 00:44:12,050
and it's time for you
to get up on that stage.
887
00:44:12,083 --> 00:44:15,553
And then you get tongue-tied when
it comes to telling Roxie how you feel.
888
00:44:15,586 --> 00:44:18,499
A girl like Roxie
would never go for a guy like me.
889
00:44:18,523 --> 00:44:20,560
I mean, look at me and look at Kris.
890
00:44:20,591 --> 00:44:25,131
He's cool, good-looking,
got that swagger.
891
00:44:25,163 --> 00:44:27,803
And I'm like wallpaper in a hoody.
892
00:44:28,332 --> 00:44:30,403
Kris is a perfect match for Roxie.
893
00:44:30,935 --> 00:44:32,846
Hey, that's not true.
894
00:44:32,870 --> 00:44:36,682
You just got to speak up for yourself
and be who you really are.
895
00:44:36,708 --> 00:44:37,982
Who am I really?
896
00:44:38,376 --> 00:44:39,753
You're Truth!
897
00:44:39,944 --> 00:44:41,150
Oh.
898
00:44:41,379 --> 00:44:43,791
Yeah. And Truth is a bad cat!
899
00:44:43,815 --> 00:44:44,885
He is?
900
00:44:44,916 --> 00:44:47,795
Yeah! Truth won
the Atlanta Records rap contest.
901
00:44:47,819 --> 00:44:50,299
He got skills. He's smooth.
He got that sound.
902
00:44:50,321 --> 00:44:51,925
And you know what?
903
00:44:53,024 --> 00:44:54,059
That's you.
904
00:44:56,527 --> 00:44:57,801
I guess that is me.
905
00:44:57,862 --> 00:45:00,468
Yeah, but Roxie wouldn't know it.
906
00:45:00,498 --> 00:45:02,978
I mean, how can you or Kris
even call yourselves "Truth"
907
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,674
when y'all both
are just living one big lie?
908
00:45:07,472 --> 00:45:09,076
I guess that's a valid question.
909
00:45:09,907 --> 00:45:11,887
Look, I gotta go.
910
00:45:11,909 --> 00:45:15,413
You need to figure out what it is you
want and then do somethin' about it.
911
00:45:16,681 --> 00:45:18,319
Lock up when you leave.

Innovation, till I change
the talk into a conversation

Healing all the hating
That faking and the paper chasin'
917
00:45:59,957 --> 00:46:03,803
It's hard to live up to
these expectations that I'm facin'
918
00:46:03,828 --> 00:46:07,071
And gain the admiration
of an older generation
919

That's why I'm pacin' back and forth
Contemplating, meditating

Not for the money

Not for the car keys or the jet skis
934

Or the vacations in the West Indies
But simply 'cause I love it
935

When I write I'm like a puppeteer

And the honesty makes me
spread my wings

Calling me out was out your mind

back down your spine

I'm on the grind, it's all on the line

at the same time

00:48:12,823 --> 00:48:15,235
Roxie, what are you doing here?
957
00:48:15,626 --> 00:48:17,902
I came to meet Kris.
You were just rapping.

00:48:17,928 --> 00:48:20,101
- (TURNS OFF MUSIC)
- You sound just like Kris.
959
00:48:20,464 --> 00:48:24,310
Oh, that? No, that wasn't me. I was...
960
00:48:24,335 --> 00:48:27,873
This mic's not even on. See?
I was just lip-synching.
961
00:48:28,572 --> 00:48:29,744
Lip-synching?
962
00:48:29,974 --> 00:48:33,046
Yeah, that's one of Kris' old tracks.
963
00:48:33,077 --> 00:48:37,526
I guess I'm not just his DJ,
but I'm also his biggest fan.
964
00:48:38,449 --> 00:48:42,556
Wow! You might just be
the best lip-syncher I've ever seen.
965
00:48:43,254 --> 00:48:46,861
Well, I do a lot of karaoke
so I'm pretty good at it.
966
00:48:47,625 --> 00:48:49,070
What are you doing here?
967
00:48:49,593 --> 00:48:51,937
Well, I came to meet Kris
so we could grab an early dinner,
968
00:48:51,962 --> 00:48:53,600
but he hasn't shown up.

I don't know, maybe we can go
grab something together, or not,
975
00:49:14,252 --> 00:49:17,028
I don't know what you were thinking,
where your head was at.
976
00:49:17,121 --> 00:49:19,032
Which... I don't know,
but I'm just saying.
977
00:49:19,056 --> 00:49:21,730
I mean, we could... It's up to you.

(LAUGHS) Okay.
979
00:49:30,868 --> 00:49:33,610
- I like the way you handle yourself.
- What do you mean?
980
00:49:33,637 --> 00:49:34,741
You know, when people like Bling
981
00:49:34,772 --> 00:49:35,944
and those journalists
say stuff about you.
982
00:49:36,107 --> 00:49:38,417
Oh, that flattering article in Ether?
983
00:49:38,876 --> 00:49:40,856
Yeah, I mean, people think
they know about music,
984
00:49:40,878 --> 00:49:41,982
but don't know a thing.
985
00:49:42,013 --> 00:49:44,687
Like that vocoder you use,
just because it's the "in" thing.
986
00:49:44,715 --> 00:49:47,525
It's a choice.
I can tell you can sing a lil' bit.
987
00:49:48,185 --> 00:49:49,255
A "lil' bit"?
988
00:49:49,287 --> 00:49:51,858
I mean, you ain't given me nothin' more
than what I've heard on the radio,
989
00:49:51,889 --> 00:49:52,959
but I've got a good ear.
990
00:49:52,990 --> 00:49:55,664
Oh, really,
Mr. DJ-Engineering Lip-Syncher?
991
00:49:55,927 --> 00:49:58,737
So, you got any other music
besides your pop hits in your vault?
992
00:49:58,762 --> 00:50:00,400
Yeah, I've got a few special ones
993
00:50:00,431 --> 00:50:02,468
for those who can think
outside the voice box.
994
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,310
But Lyla says that vocoder's
the "in" thing right now.
995
00:50:05,336 --> 00:50:06,406
And she really knows the business, so.
996
00:50:06,604 --> 00:50:08,641
Not everyone who sells uses one.
997
00:50:09,006 --> 00:50:12,112
Well, I mean, I know my voice is good,
but I don't know if it's special.
998
00:50:12,143 --> 00:50:13,713
You know, to be just belting out tunes.
999
00:50:13,744 --> 00:50:16,691
I remember when you sang in church
and you were like eight years old.
1000
00:50:16,714 --> 00:50:18,216
(CHUCKLES) You remember that?
1001
00:50:18,249 --> 00:50:21,628
Yes, of course. The little girl with
the big voice. You were awesome.
1002
00:50:21,652 --> 00:50:23,029
I don't know about all that.
1003
00:50:23,220 --> 00:50:26,258
Okay. Yeah, you were raw,
but the voice was there.
1004
00:50:26,290 --> 00:50:28,793
You've got a really great sound
if you ever care to bring it out.
1005

I can hear some of your other music.

1016
00:51:06,764 --> 00:51:09,506
Oh, yeah. Pavarotti? He's the bomb.

00:51:09,733 --> 00:51:13,078

Yeah, I just think it brings
more foundation to the sound.
1026

You know, every note says something.

01:00:22,552 --> 01:00:24,828
Because that is where
you are going to be sleeping tonight
1172
01:00:24,855 --> 01:00:27,165
after what you did
to poor Roxanne today.
1173
01:00:27,191 --> 01:00:28,932
She's what's wrong with music today.
1174
01:00:28,959 --> 01:00:32,429
I gotta practice what I preach, otherwise
I will look like a fool in my own church.
1175
01:00:32,462 --> 01:00:34,772
Honey, you look like a fool anyway,
1176
01:00:34,798 --> 01:00:37,005
picking on that innocent girl
in front of everybody.
1177
01:00:37,033 --> 01:00:39,377
She didn't look so innocent
in her videos.
1178
01:00:40,003 --> 01:00:41,846
I don't wanna talk
about this right now, hon.
1179
01:00:42,139 --> 01:00:44,483
Fine. Not another word.

Ooh. The sofa's too soft for my back.
1183
01:00:57,788 --> 01:00:59,631
Dad, you slept on the sofa?
1184
01:01:00,123 --> 01:01:02,399
No, no, I just fell asleep
doing some work.
1185
01:01:02,426 --> 01:01:03,666
It's no big deal.
1186
01:01:03,694 --> 01:01:04,832
All right. Well, I gotta go.
1187
01:01:04,861 --> 01:01:08,468
Okay. It's early.
You scheduled a choir practice?
1188
01:01:08,865 --> 01:01:12,836
Oh, no. I just have some errands
to run. It's nothing. Later.
1189
01:01:13,437 --> 01:01:14,882
- Honey?
- Yeah?
1190
01:01:15,239 --> 01:01:16,377
It's says here in the paper
1191
01:01:16,406 --> 01:01:20,115
that Roxie's new rap artist
is filming a music video today.
1192
01:01:20,410 --> 01:01:23,550
And, you know, I am willing to bet
that she's going to be there.
1193
01:01:23,780 --> 01:01:27,125
Which means you can apologize to her.
1194
01:01:27,751 --> 01:01:29,594
Today. Yeah.
1195
01:01:39,730 --> 01:01:42,040
- What do you think?
- Hi! Wow.
1196
01:01:42,065 --> 01:01:43,100

1197

01:01:44,201 --> 01:01:45,771
This, my friend, is hot.

This, my friend, is not.
1200
01:01:48,071 --> 01:01:51,450
I don't know there, Cyprus,
I think Kris has his finger on the pulse.

01:02:02,219 --> 01:02:05,223
Hey. Look, I'm sorry
about my dad yesterday.
1205
01:02:06,823 --> 01:02:08,268
It's fine.
1206
01:02:08,759 --> 01:02:11,205
He's entitled to his opinion
just like everybody else.
1207
01:02:11,228 --> 01:02:13,071
Yeah, but his opinion is
wrong and unfair.
1208
01:02:13,096 --> 01:02:14,632
I mean, he should never
judge you like that.
1209
01:02:16,166 --> 01:02:18,976
Rox, baby! You look fly as always.
1210
01:02:19,002 --> 01:02:21,710
Thank you! And so do you.
Hey, before I forget,
1211
01:02:21,738 --> 01:02:24,378
I've got these two passes
to this Middle Eastern art exhibit.
1212
01:02:24,541 --> 01:02:27,044
They've got these great abstract
and impressionist pieces,
1213
01:02:27,077 --> 01:02:28,420
and it's tonight only.
1214
01:02:29,546 --> 01:02:31,719
That sounds kind of deep and all,
1215
01:02:31,748 --> 01:02:34,592
but America's Funniest Home Videos
is having a four-hour marathon tonight.
1216

You know,
the one with the dancing baby?
1217
01:02:36,753 --> 01:02:39,666
He falls on his butt and then dog,
like, rolls around with him?
1218
01:02:40,190 --> 01:02:41,828
Yeah, I can't miss that.
1219
01:02:41,858 --> 01:02:46,170
But, you know I would love to catch,
you know, the next art situation.
1220
01:02:53,536 --> 01:02:57,245
Kris, Kris, you really are the truth.
1221
01:02:57,274 --> 01:02:59,720
I spoke to the folks at the Grand Slam,
1222
01:02:59,743 --> 01:03:03,088
and I got them to agree
to let you perform with Roxie.
1223
01:03:03,580 --> 01:03:04,888
Yes, that's great!
1224
01:03:05,849 --> 01:03:08,728
But the Grand Slam
has a no lip-synch policy,
1225
01:03:08,752 --> 01:03:10,754
so you're gonna have to
perform the rap live.
1226
01:03:11,121 --> 01:03:13,158
That's no problem. Don't worry about it.
1227
01:03:13,724 --> 01:03:16,204
Great. Roxie, look what I got you.
1228
01:03:17,327 --> 01:03:20,831
For the show! Aren't these hot?
You're gonna rock it in these.
1229
01:03:21,164 --> 01:03:24,839
What? No. They're, like, a foot tall.
I could break my neck in those.
1230
01:03:24,868 --> 01:03:28,816

Hey, Truth, can I talk to you
for a second?

01:03:39,316 --> 01:03:40,556
Wassup?
1235
01:03:40,584 --> 01:03:43,588
You have to rap live at the Grand Slam.
What're you gonna do now?
1236
01:03:43,920 --> 01:03:46,127
Bro, you got the good ideas.
Think of something.
1237
01:03:46,156 --> 01:03:47,829
I mean, after all, the ladies love me,
1238
01:03:47,858 --> 01:03:50,429
the camera loves me,
and Roxie loves me.
1239
01:03:50,994 --> 01:03:52,268
You sure about that?
1240
01:03:52,696 --> 01:03:54,642
What'chu mean?

01:03:54,898 --> 01:03:57,003

or nothing like that, are you?

Just trying to see where your head's at.
That's all.
1243
01:03:59,569 --> 01:04:02,550
Look, bro, all I'm saying
is Roxie's a great girl and all,
1244
01:04:02,572 --> 01:04:04,848
but I pretty much got
the situation in the bag.
1245
01:04:05,075 --> 01:04:08,022
I mean, after that video comes out,
and this Fox thing happens,
1246
01:04:08,044 --> 01:04:10,650
I'm gonna be on tour
with all kinds of honies,
1247
01:04:10,680 --> 01:04:13,456
you know, so I'm not really trying
to be tied down.
1248
01:04:13,483 --> 01:04:15,895
Wait, I thought you were serious
about Roxie though.
1249
01:04:15,919 --> 01:04:18,024
I am. For now.
1250
01:04:19,222 --> 01:04:20,963
Kris, she's not like other girls.

Dude, I know, but that's what I mean.
1252

1253
01:04:24,761 --> 01:04:26,570
and the variety is what I like.

a little burger, son.

the chicken fingers, and the shake.

for my behavior in church on Sunday.

I'd be disrespecting myself.

01:08:57,967 --> 01:09:00,573
I have a job to do,
and that would not be fair to him.

Oh.

the right thing to do, Jacob.

I saw Cyrus. Honey, he works there.

- (GROANS) You found out.
- What? You knew?
1344

Hey. You okay?
1346
01:10:11,441 --> 01:10:13,148
Yeah. I think Dad's upset.
1347
01:10:14,877 --> 01:10:18,882
I'm more than just upset.
I'm disappointed.
1348

But you don't understand.
I'm a songwriter.

I don't care what you are.
1350

I don't care if Jesus himself told you
to go up in that club and get a job.

He was testing you.
And you failed that test.

From this point on,
you're on punishment.

about your rapping skills, son.

01:19:45,748 --> 01:19:48,592
I mean, I can't let him get up
on the Grand Slam stage by himself,
1498
01:19:48,617 --> 01:19:50,426
he'll be humiliated.
1499
01:19:50,853 --> 01:19:53,527
He won't be able to show his face
anywhere, at the club or anything.
1500
01:19:54,357 --> 01:19:56,530
His life would be much worse
than mine ever was.
1501
01:19:57,860 --> 01:20:01,637
Okay, so, what are you gonna do?
1502
01:20:11,240 --> 01:20:12,310
Oh!
1503
01:20:12,441 --> 01:20:14,182
Going somewhere?
1504
01:20:14,210 --> 01:20:16,781
Dad, I know I'm on punishment
and all that,
1505
01:20:16,812 --> 01:20:18,416
but today is a very important day.
1506
01:20:18,447 --> 01:20:20,859
Not just for myself,
but for my friend also.
1507
01:20:20,883 --> 01:20:23,454
So, I gotta do what I gotta do.
1508
01:20:24,720 --> 01:20:27,462
So I'm gonna head out. Right now.
1509
01:20:31,594 --> 01:20:34,234
Maybe not right now.
Maybe in, like, an hour or so.
1510
01:20:34,263 --> 01:20:39,474
Cyrus, I know about your show.
And before you say another word,
1511
01:20:40,369 --> 01:20:44,647
I've been reading your song lyrics.
And I've actually enjoyed them.
1512
01:20:46,208 --> 01:20:48,688
Once I got past the fact
that they were rap songs.
1513
01:20:49,545 --> 01:20:52,549
See, Son, I've realized
I've been focused
1514
01:20:52,581 --> 01:20:55,528
on the type of music
as opposed to its message.
1515
01:20:56,152 --> 01:21:01,602
And your songs have messages
of caring, of sacrifice, devotion.
1516
01:21:02,224 --> 01:21:04,761
Good Christian values.
1517
01:21:05,261 --> 01:21:10,677
So maybe I've been too harsh
to put all rap into one box.
1518
01:21:11,834 --> 01:21:14,815
So I guess what I'm saying, Son...
1519
01:21:16,539 --> 01:21:17,779
I'm sorry.
1520
01:21:22,278 --> 01:21:23,723
(PATS BACK)
1521
01:21:27,083 --> 01:21:31,156
Okay, you two, we better get going
or you are gonna be late.
1522
01:21:31,220 --> 01:21:32,460
Wait, you're gonna come watch?
1523
01:21:32,488 --> 01:21:34,195
If that's okay with you.
Come on, honey.
1524
01:21:34,223 --> 01:21:35,395
Okay, baby.
1525
01:21:37,293 --> 01:21:38,533
Sure.
1526
01:21:44,466 --> 01:21:46,002
(CAMERAS CLICKING)
1527
01:21:51,273 --> 01:21:53,776
Lyla, I'm not wearing this.
1528
01:21:53,842 --> 01:21:56,550
What? Why? You look fantastic.
1529
01:21:56,579 --> 01:21:59,423
Sweetie, I am bringing you
to the next level.
1530
01:21:59,448 --> 01:22:02,554
I've got this whole lunar landing theme
for your next tour.
1531
01:22:02,584 --> 01:22:06,498
I'll explain the details later,
but tonight we test the look.
1532
01:22:06,555 --> 01:22:07,693
No!
1533
01:22:09,224 --> 01:22:11,727
I can't hide
behind these gimmicks anymore.
1534
01:22:11,760 --> 01:22:15,640
What good is it to get famous
if nobody knows who I really am?
1535
01:22:15,898 --> 01:22:18,606
I have my own voice.
I have my own style.
1536
01:22:18,834 --> 01:22:22,338
And if that's not good enough,
I guess I don't wanna be a star.
1537
01:22:22,371 --> 01:22:25,181
Okay, listen, we all love you
for who you are,
1538
01:22:25,207 --> 01:22:29,815
but this is show business.
You gotta play the game.
1539
01:22:29,845 --> 01:22:32,758
And I, my friend,
am the best coach in the game.
1540
01:22:33,415 --> 01:22:37,386
Look, I know you think you're helping,
and I love you for that,
1541
01:22:37,886 --> 01:22:41,390
but I don't love me like this.
So I'm starting fresh tonight.
1542
01:22:41,624 --> 01:22:43,626
- Sweetie, you have to trust me...
- I'm sorry.
1543
01:22:43,926 --> 01:22:45,906
Maybe you picked the wrong girl.
1544
01:22:46,395 --> 01:22:48,705
Maybe you need to find
somebody else to wear this wig.
1545
01:22:50,265 --> 01:22:51,869
'Cause I'm done with it.

You guys, you're on in five, let's go.

KRIS: I'm gonna be sick.
1552
01:23:16,158 --> 01:23:18,035
CYRUS: You don't look too good.
1553
01:23:19,829 --> 01:23:22,036
CY! Cy, you're here!
1554
01:23:23,232 --> 01:23:25,109
I couldn't leave you just hanging out
in the wind like that.
1555
01:23:25,134 --> 01:23:28,206
But after what I said to you,
you'd still come through for me?
1556
01:23:28,937 --> 01:23:30,974
We've been friends
since back in the day.
1557
01:23:32,908 --> 01:23:35,218
Besides, I said some hurtful things
to you, too.
1558
01:23:35,244 --> 01:23:39,351
Yo, listen, all right?
You didn't say anything that wasn't true.
1559
01:23:39,381 --> 01:23:44,421
All right? I was the one being rude,
selfish and disrespectful and I'm sorry.
1560
01:23:45,521 --> 01:23:51,301
I mean, to be honest, I was jealous.
I was jealous that I'm really not Truth.
1561
01:23:52,227 --> 01:23:54,867
I mean, there have been nights
where I couldn't even sleep
1562
01:23:54,897 --> 01:23:56,934
thinking about the fact that I'm not you,
1563
01:23:57,633 --> 01:24:00,170
and that I could never be you, man.
1564
01:24:00,836 --> 01:24:02,440
You wanted to be me?
1565
01:24:02,471 --> 01:24:03,643
Yeah.
1566
01:24:03,672 --> 01:24:05,618
I wanted to be you.

01:24:05,641 --> 01:24:07,450
- Really?
- Yeah.
1568
01:24:08,844 --> 01:24:12,587
Well, look, the truth is,
you deserve to be with Roxie.
1569
01:24:13,282 --> 01:24:15,421
Besides, I'm not the guy
she fell for anyway.
1570
01:24:16,952 --> 01:24:18,260
It's you.
1571

01:29:20,355 --> 01:29:22,198
You're all I ever wanted
1665
01:29:22,224 --> 01:29:24,932
But I got caught in a shadow
in the background
1666
01:29:24,960 --> 01:29:28,169
But I'm back now
And Kris was all this and that
1667
01:29:28,197 --> 01:29:31,770
And my look didn't really fit the rap
It didn't match
1668
01:29:31,800 --> 01:29:34,007
He had the style
and I had the swag
1669
01:29:34,035 --> 01:29:36,379
So I locked up my feelings
in the words he said
1670
01:29:36,405 --> 01:29:38,578
Give me your hand,
and I'll take off my mask
1671
01:29:38,607 --> 01:29:41,019
If you give me a chance, that's all I ask
1672
01:29:41,043 --> 01:29:45,958
What you expecting me to do?
First you were him and now you're you
1673
01:29:45,981 --> 01:29:49,292
Now it's just me,
and you got me on my knees
1674
01:29:49,318 --> 01:29:51,195
Roxie, I'm sorry
1675
01:29:55,757 --> 01:29:57,259
(CROWD CHEERING)
1676
01:30:01,129 --> 01:30:07,603
Give it up for Roxie and Truth!
Or whoever that guy was.
1677
01:30:09,805 --> 01:30:12,081
So who's ready for some rap?
1678
01:30:12,874 --> 01:30:14,046
Then, ladies and gentlemen,
1679
01:30:14,076 --> 01:30:19,048
put your hands together
for Revelation and Lord of Da Bling!
1680
01:30:26,455 --> 01:30:27,763
Rox, come on, open up.
1681
01:30:27,789 --> 01:30:31,100
I'm sorry, but we were electric out there,
couldn't you feel it?
1682
01:30:33,128 --> 01:30:35,005
No. Did you feel that?
1683
01:30:35,030 --> 01:30:37,340
I can't believe
it was you this whole time.
1684
01:30:37,366 --> 01:30:39,209
You two are just one big lie.
1685
01:30:39,234 --> 01:30:40,406
No, you see,
what had happened was, I...
1686
01:30:40,435 --> 01:30:44,144
I don't wanna hear it.
Please just get away from me.
1687
01:30:44,172 --> 01:30:45,480
Such an idiot.
1688
01:30:46,475 --> 01:30:48,819
No, Rox, you're not, I am.
1689
01:30:49,945 --> 01:30:52,084
I should've been upfront with you
from the jump.
1690
01:30:53,215 --> 01:30:55,889
It's just hard to understand that you
didn't wanna hear my words from me.
1691
01:30:56,785 --> 01:30:59,698
You wanted the hot guy
and the hot music all at the same time.
1692
01:30:59,755 --> 01:31:03,828
Wrong, Cyrus. It wasn't about his looks.
1693
01:31:04,559 --> 01:31:08,769
I fell in love with his.
I mean, your words.
1694
01:31:09,998 --> 01:31:12,274
I just wanted someone who was real,
1695
01:31:12,801 --> 01:31:15,372
but now it's clear
that that's neither one of you.
1696
01:31:16,238 --> 01:31:18,741
So both of you just stay out of my life.
1697
01:31:19,608 --> 01:31:21,485
Hey, where you going?
1698
01:31:21,510 --> 01:31:23,649
We want you to present the trophy
to the new champ.
1699
01:31:23,678 --> 01:31:25,715
Thanks, but I'm not in the mood.
1700
01:31:25,747 --> 01:31:30,162
Why don't you ask Truth to do it?
This is his night.
1701
01:31:33,789 --> 01:31:35,234
Follow me.

(CROWD CHEERING)
1703
01:31:44,566 --> 01:31:47,342
All right.
So we've heard from our finalists.
1704
01:31:47,369 --> 01:31:49,474
But there can only be one champion.
1705
01:31:51,073 --> 01:31:54,782
Atlanta, show your love for Revelation.

01:32:00,749 --> 01:32:02,626

(CHUCKLING) Yeah!
1709
01:32:03,752 --> 01:32:07,427

We have a new rap Grand Slam King.
Congratulate Lord of Da Bling.
1712
01:32:18,900 --> 01:32:23,042
Yeah! Midtown, baby, let's go.
I told you I'm number one!
1713
01:32:23,071 --> 01:32:26,575
Our trophy will now be presented
by newcomer, Truth.
1714
01:32:26,708 --> 01:32:28,153
Oh, man!
1715
01:32:34,749 --> 01:32:40,461
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo. Look at this.
The busboy just brought me my trophy.
1716
01:32:40,488 --> 01:32:41,865
CROWD: Oh!
1717
01:32:43,258 --> 01:32:44,737
Congratulations.

01:32:45,494 --> 01:32:46,973
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
1719
01:32:46,995 --> 01:32:48,269
Hold on, hold on there.
1720
01:32:48,296 --> 01:32:50,537
You gotta polish it up
for me there, busboy.

(CROWD CHEERING)
1722
01:32:53,301 --> 01:32:57,681
Oh, oh, oh, wait,
is it Truth or is it Baby Ruth?
1723
01:32:59,941 --> 01:33:02,945
You know, you don't deserve this
trophy, because you're not the best.
1724
01:33:02,978 --> 01:33:06,687
I mean, you're not the best in Atlanta,
you're not even the best in the building.
1725
01:33:13,355 --> 01:33:16,495
Yo! Is that a challenge?
1726
01:33:16,992 --> 01:33:18,630
(CROWD CHEERING)
1727
01:33:21,363 --> 01:33:23,343
Yeah. It is.
1728
01:33:23,365 --> 01:33:25,709
Yo, I'm gonna love beating you
in front of everybody.
1729
01:33:26,601 --> 01:33:29,878
We have a challenge.
So let the challenge begin!
1730
01:33:34,843 --> 01:33:36,413
You want this battle, huh?
1731
01:33:36,444 --> 01:33:39,948
So you're a rapper now, oh. Okay.
1732
01:33:41,650 --> 01:33:43,652
(RAPPING) Here we go again
1733
01:33:43,685 --> 01:33:46,666
Prepare to meet your end
Just looked you up on Facebook
1734
01:33:46,688 --> 01:33:48,964
You have zero friends
This kid's a loser
1735
01:33:48,990 --> 01:33:52,130
Yo, he ain't even kissed a girl
You write her love letters
1736
01:33:52,160 --> 01:33:55,107
I buy her ice and pearls
So how you like me now?
1737
01:33:55,130 --> 01:33:59,010
Even Roxanne's in the background
Saying, "Wow, Bling's got style"
1738
01:33:59,033 --> 01:34:00,603
I'm off the gold chain
1739
01:34:00,635 --> 01:34:02,876
If you're a rapper
why is Kris your backup dancer
1740
01:34:02,904 --> 01:34:05,009
Like an extra on Soul Train?
1741
01:34:05,040 --> 01:34:07,543
I see your mommy and your daddy
in the front row
1742
01:34:07,575 --> 01:34:09,577
They must be embarrassed for you, bro
1743
01:34:09,611 --> 01:34:12,922
You're not a real MC
You should quit hip-hop
1744
01:34:12,947 --> 01:34:15,587
Now be a good busboy
and go get your mop
1745
01:34:15,617 --> 01:34:17,062
(RAPPING)
Bling, you don't wanna battle
1746
01:34:17,085 --> 01:34:18,462
You're the snake without the rattle
1747
01:34:18,486 --> 01:34:21,126
You're the boat without the paddle
You're the duck without the waddle
1748
01:34:21,156 --> 01:34:24,160
You're the horse without the saddle
The ranch without the cattle
1749
01:34:24,192 --> 01:34:26,900
The day without the shadow
Son, I think you should skedaddle
1750
01:34:26,928 --> 01:34:30,000
Kick gravel, sayonara,
punk, arrivederci
1751
01:34:30,031 --> 01:34:33,308
What language do I have to say it in
for you to hear me clearly?
1752
01:34:33,335 --> 01:34:35,941
AdiĆ³s, amigo
You're over with, finito
1753
01:34:35,970 --> 01:34:38,382
This clown couldn't wrap anything
but my burrito
1754
01:34:38,406 --> 01:34:39,942
Kid, you have to hold
your mommy's hand
1755
01:34:39,975 --> 01:34:42,615
Before you cross the street
You have to sneak out the house
1756
01:34:42,644 --> 01:34:43,987
Just to clean and sweep
1757
01:34:44,012 --> 01:34:46,583
And now you look queasy
I made him go mute
1758
01:34:46,615 --> 01:34:49,596
Put your camera phones up
so you can post this on YouTube
1759
01:34:49,618 --> 01:34:52,497
Truth's got a screw loose
He's terrified to bust
1760
01:34:52,520 --> 01:34:55,228
So lightweight that
I could blow him over with a gust
1761
01:34:55,256 --> 01:34:58,135
You're weak like seven days
You deserve boos
1762
01:34:58,160 --> 01:35:01,141
You should walk around
in some high-heel shoes, ha!
1763
01:35:01,162 --> 01:35:03,768
You should rock pigtails and a skirt
1764
01:35:03,798 --> 01:35:06,369
You're shaking in your boots
Are your feelings getting hurt?
1765
01:35:06,401 --> 01:35:09,211
Well, maybe I should hurt
more than your feelings
1766
01:35:09,237 --> 01:35:12,047
Maybe I should rip the roof
off the theater ceiling
1767
01:35:12,073 --> 01:35:15,077
Maybe you should start kneeling
His eyes are getting misty
1768
01:35:15,110 --> 01:35:18,250
You're so whack if you were me
you couldn't diss me
1769
01:35:18,279 --> 01:35:20,725
Kissy-kissy
Roxanne, did you miss me?
1770
01:35:20,749 --> 01:35:23,730
I'll take you out for dinner
after I've eaten this pipsqueak
1771
01:35:23,752 --> 01:35:26,562
And when we're on vacation
I'll let him house sit
1772
01:35:26,588 --> 01:35:29,398
Here's a couple bucks
Buy yourself a better outfit
1773
01:35:33,962 --> 01:35:36,272
- Get him, Cy.
- Come on, Cy.
1774
01:35:39,601 --> 01:35:40,978
You know what?
1775
01:35:41,002 --> 01:35:44,040
You don't have a stack of cash
or a flashy pad
1776
01:35:44,072 --> 01:35:46,882
I saw you last week
driving a taxi cab
1777
01:35:46,908 --> 01:35:49,184
Your secret's out
and now they know, sport
1778
01:35:49,211 --> 01:35:52,158
We'll call you
if we need a ride to an airport
1779
01:35:52,180 --> 01:35:54,820
In fact, you can drop me
off at home after this
1780
01:35:54,849 --> 01:35:58,160
Then you can take
your couple bucks back, but as a tip
1781
01:35:58,186 --> 01:36:00,427
You're playin' yourself like solitaire
1782
01:36:00,455 --> 01:36:03,265
Tellin' everyone that's here
that you're a millionaire
1783
01:36:03,291 --> 01:36:05,271
You're not a baller, you're a phony
1784
01:36:05,293 --> 01:36:08,206
I bet your whole crew
is a bunch of rent-a-homies
1785
01:36:08,229 --> 01:36:11,506
At night you lie in bed lonely
Your persona's a facade
1786
01:36:11,533 --> 01:36:14,810
The only girls you get
are in the pages of a catalog
1787

Here stands Lord of Da Bluff
1788
01:36:16,938 --> 01:36:20,283
His lies were legendary
till the Truth made him hush
1789
01:36:20,308 --> 01:36:23,016
And what's funny is
your truth is enough
1790
01:36:23,044 --> 01:36:25,650
Why'd you have to make up
all the money and the stuff
1791
01:36:25,680 --> 01:36:28,456
I guess it's easier to
play the role and act hard
1792
01:36:28,483 --> 01:36:31,692
'Cause you don't have the guts
to tell us who you really are
1793
01:36:31,719 --> 01:36:34,222
So you can keep a trophy
that you don't deserve

but you just got served

Roxie. Come on, just open up.
Just give me a minute, please. All right?
1805
01:37:32,347 --> 01:37:36,352
What? Look, you got one minute,
and I've gotta go or I'll miss my flight.
1806

Look, Roxie, I am sorry. All right?
1807
01:37:40,655 --> 01:37:44,762
Cyrus and I, we never meant to
hurt you. He did it for me.
1808
01:37:45,560 --> 01:37:48,666
I saw you looking all fine and
I thought that we'd be great together.
1809
01:37:48,696 --> 01:37:51,176
Just like when you saw
that picture with me and Cyrus in it?
1810
01:37:51,199 --> 01:37:53,679
You thought I was the rapper and
he was, like, my roadie or something.
1811
01:37:55,970 --> 01:37:59,474
He's not wrong. It's show business.
1812
01:37:59,641 --> 01:38:01,882
I was the one who asked Cyrus
to help me trick you.
1813
01:38:02,377 --> 01:38:04,857
And he saw you feeling me
and me feeling you
1814
01:38:04,879 --> 01:38:06,756
and he just wanted to do
what was right, you know?
1815
01:38:08,249 --> 01:38:11,059
Of course, then I started feeling
every girl in Atlanta.
1816
01:38:11,085 --> 01:38:12,223
Yeah.
1817
01:38:13,054 --> 01:38:16,058
But if it is the real
that you were looking for,
1818
01:38:16,558 --> 01:38:18,538
that's you and Cyrus. All right?
1819
01:38:18,560 --> 01:38:20,733
And you know that as much as I do.
1820
01:38:21,663 --> 01:38:23,336
We gotta go.

01:38:23,365 --> 01:38:24,435

01:38:44,886 --> 01:38:46,923
Do you mind if I join you all today?
1827
01:38:46,955 --> 01:38:48,662
I hear you're doing
some powerful preaching, sir.
1828
01:38:49,290 --> 01:38:52,737
Cyrus, Son,
it's time to celebrate and be glad,
1829
01:38:53,294 --> 01:38:57,367
'cause this brother of yours was lost
and now he's found. (LAUGHS)
1830
01:38:58,733 --> 01:38:59,871
Yes.
1831
01:39:22,690 --> 01:39:24,226
Cyrus Debarge,
1832
01:39:25,093 --> 01:39:27,801
I don't know if you remember me,
but we went to school together.
1833
01:39:28,263 --> 01:39:32,871
Sure, I do. Roxanne Andrews.
Nice to see you again.
1834
01:39:37,505 --> 01:39:38,848
(CONGREGATION APPLAUDING)
1835
01:39:39,574 --> 01:39:42,020
CHOIR: (SINGING) Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
1836
01:39:42,043 --> 01:39:44,717
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
1837
01:39:45,947 --> 01:39:48,689
(RAPPING) It's been a long road,
but we're finally here
1838
01:39:48,716 --> 01:39:51,060
And the view from the top's
so beautifully clear
1839
01:39:51,085 --> 01:39:53,964
We could see for forever
Not a cloud in the sky
1840
01:39:53,989 --> 01:39:56,265
Picture-perfect weather
every day of our lives
1841
01:39:56,290 --> 01:39:58,896
Just imagine if everything
you wanted came true
1842
01:39:58,926 --> 01:40:01,372
Well, it happened to me
So it could happen to you
1843
01:40:01,395 --> 01:40:04,171
We're on a journey of truth
and belief is the key
1844
01:40:04,199 --> 01:40:06,975
So open up your heart
and let your light free
1845
01:40:07,768 --> 01:40:13,309
(SINGING) And I feel like I'm glowing
And I like where I'm going
1846
01:40:13,341 --> 01:40:17,756
Tonight I'm showing up to shine
1847
01:40:17,846 --> 01:40:21,953
ALL: This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
1848

Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine
1852
01:40:38,566 --> 01:40:39,874
(RAPPING) Front to back,
we're packed in stomping
1853
01:40:39,901 --> 01:40:42,211
Clapping, laughing, singing, dancing
Passion everlasting
1854
01:40:42,237 --> 01:40:43,807
When I'm rapping to the track
and askin'
1855
01:40:43,838 --> 01:40:46,011
Everyone to put your hands up,
stand up
1856
01:40:46,040 --> 01:40:49,180
Roxanne, come take my hand
and make the congregation rock
1857
01:40:49,210 --> 01:40:54,284
We're celebrating and it feels so good
If I could thank everybody here I would
1858
01:40:54,315 --> 01:40:58,161
I feel like I'm finally free and!
Yeah, I'm ready, I'm ready
1859
01:40:58,185 --> 01:41:02,895
I'm ready to fly
Oh, I feel like I'm glowing
1860
01:41:02,924 --> 01:41:09,808
And I like where I'm going
Tonight I'm showing up to shine

- I'm gonna, I'm gonna let it shine
- Yeah
1866
01:41:32,453 --> 01:41:36,265
(RAPPING) You know what's come out
Don't hide your shine, y'all
1867
01:41:37,024 --> 01:41:40,369
Now put your hands in the sky
'Cause your light is your love
1868
01:41:40,394 --> 01:41:41,839
Here we go!
1869
01:41:41,863 --> 01:41:46,107
CHOIR: Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

Come on and sing
Here we go
1871
01:41:50,905 --> 01:41:52,009
CYRUS: All right, all right, all right
1872
01:41:53,774 --> 01:41:58,450
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
1873
01:41:59,047 --> 01:42:03,325
Yeah, I'm gonna let it shine
1874
01:42:03,852 --> 01:42:07,629

Shine
1878
01:42:25,573 --> 01:42:27,018
(ALL CHEERING)
1879
01:42:34,115 --> 01:42:35,150
(MOUTHING)
1880
01:42:48,129 --> 01:42:49,938
- So, do you, like, manage a lot...
- One second.
1881
01:42:49,964 --> 01:42:51,068
Oh.
1882
01:42:51,532 --> 01:42:52,909
Hold on.
1883
01:42:53,801 --> 01:42:56,577
Whoo! Look at you!
1884
01:42:56,604 --> 01:42:58,914
- Matching outfits?
- Stylin' right?
1885
01:42:58,940 --> 01:43:01,011
This, my friend, is hot.
1886
01:43:01,042 --> 01:43:03,386
This, my friend, is not.
1887
01:43:03,778 --> 01:43:07,692
I don't know, Simon. I think
Kris here has his finger on the pulse.
1888
01:43:07,948 --> 01:43:09,052
It's Cyrus.
1889
01:43:09,083 --> 01:43:12,656
I don't know there, Seamus.
I think Kris has his finger on the pulse.
1890
01:43:12,854 --> 01:43:13,924
Cyrus.
1891
01:43:13,954 --> 01:43:18,630
I don't know there, Serious.
I think Kris has his finger on the pulse.
1892
01:43:18,926 --> 01:43:20,234
It's Cyrus.
1893
01:43:20,261 --> 01:43:24,368
All right, relax there, Sinus.
I think Kris has his finger on the pulse.
1894
01:43:24,532 --> 01:43:25,602
Cyrus.
1895
01:43:25,833 --> 01:43:29,508
I don't know there, Cyclone.
I think Kris has his finger on the pulse.
1896
01:43:29,937 --> 01:43:31,075
Cyrus.
1897
01:43:32,306 --> 01:43:33,910
