1
00:00:00,049 --> 00:00:02,548
- Previously on Empire...
- I didn't know Gram was
2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:03,793
performing with Tiana tonight.
3
00:00:03,828 --> 00:00:04,994
Why don't you spit some napalm
4
00:00:05,096 --> 00:00:07,797
on a diss track and bury him
5
00:00:07,832 --> 00:00:08,998
and everything he cares about.
6
00:00:09,123 --> 00:00:10,957
There is no head of
A&R to oversee the deal.
7
00:00:11,025 --> 00:00:12,892
- We hired Xavier Rosen.
- Who?
8
00:00:12,927 --> 00:00:14,827
Given the dangers to Ms. Gathers,
9
00:00:14,863 --> 00:00:16,262
the court agrees to grant bail.
10
00:00:16,364 --> 00:00:17,630
What I was most proud of
11
00:00:17,699 --> 00:00:19,565
was that you paid off that doctor.
12
00:00:19,601 --> 00:00:22,068
How does it feel to know
you're just like your daddy?
13
00:00:22,136 --> 00:00:24,237
- I had to put in work on a couple of cats.
- Mm-hmm.
14
00:00:24,272 --> 00:00:25,838
The three horsemen who wanted us dead.
15
00:00:25,874 --> 00:00:27,373
Well, there was a fourth horseman.
16
00:00:27,442 --> 00:00:29,242
But Shine, he ain't no snitch.
17
00:00:29,277 --> 00:00:30,676
Cookie, we're not that different.
18
00:00:30,712 --> 00:00:33,479
I truly believe we can make this work.
19
00:00:33,514 --> 00:00:35,181
- That was hot.
- Oh, so...
20
00:00:35,216 --> 00:00:37,016
first you hate me, then you love me.
21
00:00:37,051 --> 00:00:38,184
You have no idea...
22
00:00:39,954 --> 00:00:41,153
... what you're worth.
23
00:00:41,222 --> 00:00:43,189
An attack on me is an attack
24
00:00:43,224 --> 00:00:44,991
on each and every one of you.
25
00:00:45,059 --> 00:00:47,727
Lucious and Andre Lyon want a war.
26
00:00:47,795 --> 00:00:48,794
So we war.
27
00:00:55,570 --> 00:00:58,170
Yeah, that feel right to you?
28
00:00:58,206 --> 00:01:00,940
I think you could make
that bass a little harder.
29
00:01:01,042 --> 00:01:02,808
Yeah.
30
00:01:02,844 --> 00:01:05,011
Look, I know we haven't
worked together in a while,
31
00:01:05,079 --> 00:01:06,512
but I appreciate you coming through.
32
00:01:06,547 --> 00:01:08,648
Feel like this is about
to be something big.
33
00:01:08,683 --> 00:01:10,616
Couldn't think of anyone better.
34
00:01:10,685 --> 00:01:12,285
Oh, come on, Mal.
35
00:01:12,320 --> 00:01:14,287
You know we make good music together.
36
00:01:14,322 --> 00:01:15,454
Yeah.
37
00:01:15,490 --> 00:01:16,889
Yeah, we do.
38
00:01:16,925 --> 00:01:19,992
But that's all we need to do, Derek.
39
00:01:36,844 --> 00:01:38,377
Let's go kill some Lyons.
40
00:01:38,446 --> 00:01:39,645
You heard him. Let's roll.
41
00:01:49,057 --> 00:01:52,391
Now, you know I love getting
coffee with you before work,
42
00:01:52,427 --> 00:01:54,026
but one of these days,
43
00:01:54,062 --> 00:01:56,062
you got to let me
bring it to you in bed.
44
00:01:56,097 --> 00:01:59,265
Huh. Well, I might like that,
45
00:01:59,300 --> 00:02:01,701
one of these days in the far future.
46
00:02:01,769 --> 00:02:03,736
Oh, the future, okay.
47
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,440
Come on. No... no sugar? No cream?
48
00:02:07,475 --> 00:02:09,442
Oh, no. I like mine dark and strong.
49
00:02:09,477 --> 00:02:12,545
Ah, well, you're gonna have
to do a little better than that
50
00:02:12,613 --> 00:02:14,680
if you want to get in these drawers.
51
00:02:16,250 --> 00:02:17,717
Make a right right here.
52
00:02:17,752 --> 00:02:19,251
Watch out for the cops.
53
00:02:23,327 --> 00:02:26,095
And make sure Tony has his guys fan out.
54
00:02:26,130 --> 00:02:27,630
Yes, sir.
55
00:02:27,665 --> 00:02:29,031
And we got three marks over there
56
00:02:29,067 --> 00:02:31,534
at that hot dog stand.
57
00:02:31,569 --> 00:02:35,004
Now, you see that dude
with the newspaper?
58
00:02:35,073 --> 00:02:36,505
Nobody reads print anymore.
59
00:02:36,574 --> 00:02:39,341
I never thought I'd be making
60
00:02:39,444 --> 00:02:41,377
doctor visits in an
armored personnel carrier.
61
00:02:41,412 --> 00:02:43,813
Well, I know Shine;
he's gonna clap back.
62
00:02:43,848 --> 00:02:45,448
So if you want to step your ass out
63
00:02:45,516 --> 00:02:46,849
and see if you're bulletproof, go ahead.
64
00:02:59,163 --> 00:03:01,797
I'm-a try Nessa one more time.
65
00:03:01,833 --> 00:03:03,732
Still texting Nessa again?
66
00:03:03,768 --> 00:03:05,201
When you gonna hit that?
67
00:03:05,296 --> 00:03:07,296
I will.
68
00:03:07,331 --> 00:03:09,698
I want her to meet my daughter.
69
00:03:09,734 --> 00:03:12,034
Cute little babies, that
always gets the girls.
70
00:03:12,069 --> 00:03:14,103
I thought it was your rap
skills that got the honeys.
71
00:03:14,205 --> 00:03:16,038
That, too.
72
00:03:16,073 --> 00:03:18,307
I'm-a invite her to
my livestream concert.
73
00:03:18,342 --> 00:03:22,111
Once she sees me doing
my thing, it's game over.
74
00:03:22,146 --> 00:03:23,312
That's gonna be enough?
75
00:03:23,381 --> 00:03:24,780
Period.
76
00:03:31,122 --> 00:03:32,588
- Get him.
- Yeah.
77
00:03:32,623 --> 00:03:35,457
And that bitch of his gonna
catch a few of these, too.
78
00:03:40,264 --> 00:03:42,264
So why are you going
through so much trouble
79
00:03:42,300 --> 00:03:44,333
to announce you're running for mayor?
80
00:03:44,368 --> 00:03:46,335
- I say just call a couple reporters...
- Right.
81
00:03:46,370 --> 00:03:47,803
... do the damn thing,
and keep it moving.
82
00:03:47,872 --> 00:03:49,505
Well, you know, I just
want to be prepared
83
00:03:49,540 --> 00:03:51,907
for any questions
they might throw at me.
84
00:03:51,943 --> 00:03:53,909
Oh. Yeah, questions like,
85
00:03:53,945 --> 00:03:56,312
uh, "Why are you trying
to date an ex-con?" Huh?
86
00:03:56,380 --> 00:03:58,747
Yes, they may ask that.
But, look, I'll just say,
87
00:03:58,816 --> 00:04:00,983
"I haven't been to
third base yet," so...
88
00:04:01,018 --> 00:04:04,119
Unless we're planning on, you
know, changing that tonight.
89
00:04:04,155 --> 00:04:06,088
No. I got to see my P.O. tomorrow.
90
00:04:06,190 --> 00:04:08,591
You still have a parole officer?
91
00:04:08,626 --> 00:04:10,259
Yeah, it's called
supervised release, so...
92
00:04:10,294 --> 00:04:12,461
- Heads up, Councilman.
- Excuse me, Ms. Lyon.
93
00:04:12,496 --> 00:04:13,495
You need to come with us.
94
00:04:13,531 --> 00:04:14,663
- Step back.
- Uh, no, I don't.
95
00:04:14,699 --> 00:04:16,131
I don't even know who the hell you are.
96
00:04:16,234 --> 00:04:17,299
All right, stand down.
97
00:04:17,335 --> 00:04:18,300
What's going on here, gentlemen?
98
00:04:18,336 --> 00:04:19,301
All due respect, Councilman.
99
00:04:19,337 --> 00:04:20,369
Your husband sent us, ma'am.
100
00:04:20,404 --> 00:04:22,171
- For your own safety.
- He is not my hu...
101
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:23,872
- Come with us, ma'am.
- He's not my husband.
102
00:04:23,908 --> 00:04:25,608
Look, I don't know
what he did this time.
103
00:04:25,643 --> 00:04:26,709
Stay back. Stay back.
104
00:04:26,744 --> 00:04:28,010
Get your hands off of me!
105
00:04:28,112 --> 00:04:29,612
I'm sorry!
106
00:04:40,324 --> 00:04:42,024
Long night at the studio, huh, brother?
107
00:04:42,093 --> 00:04:44,026
Get some of these eggs, man.
108
00:04:44,128 --> 00:04:45,261
I made plenty.
109
00:04:46,430 --> 00:04:47,329
Good morning, sunshine.
110
00:05:02,112 --> 00:05:05,995
- Synced and corrected by chamallow -
- www.MY-SUBS.com -
111
00:05:09,553 --> 00:05:10,819
Yo...
112
00:05:10,888 --> 00:05:12,521
Shine, what the hell are you doing?!
113
00:05:12,590 --> 00:05:13,856
What the hell are you doing here?!
114
00:05:15,126 --> 00:05:17,159
You smashing this dude?
115
00:05:18,462 --> 00:05:21,430
After what him and his father did to me?
116
00:05:21,465 --> 00:05:23,732
That's how you got the bruise, Andre?
117
00:05:23,834 --> 00:05:25,234
We had a disagreement.
118
00:05:25,303 --> 00:05:26,368
Oh, we had a disagreement.
119
00:05:26,404 --> 00:05:27,670
No, no, no.
120
00:05:27,705 --> 00:05:28,904
Shine, look at me.
121
00:05:28,939 --> 00:05:30,406
- Get out the way, Nessa.
- Look at me!
122
00:05:30,441 --> 00:05:32,374
You're my brother, and I love you.
123
00:05:32,443 --> 00:05:34,877
I ain't got nobody else! You know that.
124
00:05:34,912 --> 00:05:37,813
And I will not have you catching
a case over this. Look at me.
125
00:05:37,882 --> 00:05:39,148
Let's go.
126
00:05:40,418 --> 00:05:41,617
Let's go.
127
00:05:41,652 --> 00:05:43,619
Let's go, Shine.
128
00:05:46,824 --> 00:05:48,691
Shine...
129
00:05:48,726 --> 00:05:50,059
No! Shine!
130
00:05:52,089 --> 00:05:54,890
I don't get my hands
dirty in front of her.
131
00:05:54,992 --> 00:05:57,392
But I'll be back.
132
00:05:57,495 --> 00:05:59,495
In fact, I think I'll save you for last.
133
00:06:14,411 --> 00:06:15,978
Hey, brother.
134
00:06:18,349 --> 00:06:20,382
Sorry about my friends, man.
135
00:06:20,451 --> 00:06:23,452
Sometimes they, uh...
136
00:06:23,487 --> 00:06:25,454
they get out of hand.
137
00:06:39,216 --> 00:06:41,850
What's with all the
security outside my spot?
138
00:06:41,885 --> 00:06:43,952
We're good for my livestream
show on Friday, right?
139
00:06:43,987 --> 00:06:45,120
Not exactly, Hakeem.
140
00:06:45,155 --> 00:06:46,755
Lucious, why don't you tell him.
141
00:06:46,824 --> 00:06:48,790
As I was saying, once Shine
142
00:06:48,826 --> 00:06:50,092
reentered into my orbit,
143
00:06:50,127 --> 00:06:51,993
I knew there was gonna come a time
144
00:06:52,029 --> 00:06:54,529
in which he needed to be corrected.
145
00:06:54,598 --> 00:06:56,364
So fortunately, last night,
146
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,166
my eldest son and I decided
147
00:06:58,202 --> 00:07:02,003
that his actions were
extremely disrespectful
148
00:07:02,039 --> 00:07:03,572
and, if left unchecked,
149
00:07:03,674 --> 00:07:06,007
a threat to this family. And so we...
150
00:07:07,144 --> 00:07:08,877
... checked his ass.
151
00:07:08,912 --> 00:07:10,812
Checked him how?
152
00:07:10,881 --> 00:07:12,347
How you think?
153
00:07:12,382 --> 00:07:14,850
Except now Shine is at my
place trying to clap back.
154
00:07:14,885 --> 00:07:17,052
I'm sorry about that,
Jamal; it won't happen again.
155
00:07:17,087 --> 00:07:18,820
I'm moving in to Pop's guesthouse.
156
00:07:18,856 --> 00:07:21,389
No, Dre.
157
00:07:21,425 --> 00:07:23,792
Trust me, you don't want to
be all up under him like that.
158
00:07:23,767 --> 00:07:25,400
Hold up. We beating up our friends now?
159
00:07:25,502 --> 00:07:26,902
Boy, he is not your friend.
160
00:07:27,004 --> 00:07:29,871
Look, all of y'all, the only reason why
161
00:07:29,940 --> 00:07:32,307
we are even messing with
him is to block Tariq
162
00:07:32,342 --> 00:07:34,476
from building a case
against us, you got that?
163
00:07:36,180 --> 00:07:38,080
Now, how in the hell
are we gonna stop him
164
00:07:38,115 --> 00:07:39,581
from flipping out on us now?
165
00:07:39,616 --> 00:07:41,283
Because Shine is not a snitch.
166
00:07:41,318 --> 00:07:43,118
He'd rather be dead than be a rat.
167
00:07:43,153 --> 00:07:44,486
I swear, am I the only one...
168
00:07:44,521 --> 00:07:45,854
See, you love this type of drama.
169
00:07:45,889 --> 00:07:47,089
Yeah, he does.
170
00:07:47,097 --> 00:07:49,064
It brought my family
back together, didn't it?
171
00:07:49,166 --> 00:07:51,566
The music I'm doing with
Shine is some of my best stuff.
172
00:07:51,602 --> 00:07:53,435
Well, you're gonna have
to postpone that for now.
173
00:07:53,470 --> 00:07:55,037
I already told my fans it's happening.
174
00:07:55,072 --> 00:07:56,638
I don't care what you told your fans!
175
00:07:56,674 --> 00:07:58,373
Ain't no do-overs in
live streaming, Mom.
176
00:07:58,475 --> 00:08:00,709
There also ain't no do-overs
if you get shot in the head.
177
00:08:00,744 --> 00:08:02,411
Look, look, relax. Ain't
nobody changing anything.
178
00:08:02,513 --> 00:08:04,413
Everything stays according
to what we're doing.
179
00:08:04,448 --> 00:08:08,383
Everybody just needs to be
alert and stay in their lane.
180
00:08:08,419 --> 00:08:11,053
And then soon as you're
done playing house with...
181
00:08:11,088 --> 00:08:13,221
the mayor of Dingleberry,
182
00:08:13,257 --> 00:08:15,557
you owe me a Tiana single.
183
00:08:15,659 --> 00:08:17,392
And, Jamal, you can go back to doing
184
00:08:17,494 --> 00:08:19,828
whatever you do when
you're not making music.
185
00:08:19,863 --> 00:08:21,930
You want to help the
family? You help the family.
186
00:08:22,032 --> 00:08:24,332
You want to go and free
the world? Free the world.
187
00:08:24,401 --> 00:08:27,669
But, Keem, your Empire XStream show
188
00:08:27,705 --> 00:08:29,871
goes on as planned.
189
00:08:29,973 --> 00:08:31,840
We got to keep pushing them stats up.
190
00:08:31,875 --> 00:08:34,142
I got Shine exactly where I want him.
191
00:08:34,178 --> 00:08:36,645
Now it's time to tuck
his little bitch ass in.
192
00:08:52,793 --> 00:08:54,726
- There he is!
- Hakeem!
193
00:08:57,631 --> 00:08:58,964
What's up, little brother?
194
00:08:59,066 --> 00:09:01,066
You feeling this track?
195
00:09:07,875 --> 00:09:10,942
You already know.
196
00:09:10,978 --> 00:09:12,177
Get in.
197
00:09:12,781 --> 00:09:14,480
Yo, can you pause that?
198
00:09:15,415 --> 00:09:17,549
Yo, you want it?
199
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,087
What I got to do for it?
200
00:09:22,122 --> 00:09:24,957
Make your Empire XStream event
a double bill. You and me.
201
00:09:25,025 --> 00:09:26,625
Come on, bro, I'm doing
my own jam right now.
202
00:09:26,650 --> 00:09:28,517
No, I get it, Hakeem. But listen,
203
00:09:28,552 --> 00:09:31,086
we could give the people what
they missed out on at the ASAs.
204
00:09:31,122 --> 00:09:33,122
And keeping it real, I need it, too.
205
00:09:33,157 --> 00:09:36,091
It's important that I show the
fans that I'm still in the game.
206
00:09:36,127 --> 00:09:37,393
Bro, you can't even perform.
207
00:09:37,461 --> 00:09:39,094
- You know that.
- Not in front of
208
00:09:39,130 --> 00:09:40,963
a big crowd with all these
bells and whistles, no.
209
00:09:40,998 --> 00:09:43,098
But I was thinking we could
do it at my living room.
210
00:09:43,134 --> 00:09:44,500
We could make it mad intimate
211
00:09:44,568 --> 00:09:46,969
and just blast it out to the fans.
212
00:09:47,004 --> 00:09:48,437
Maybe.
213
00:09:48,506 --> 00:09:51,573
Hakeem and Jamal, the Lyon brothers.
214
00:09:51,609 --> 00:09:53,542
Live and alive.
215
00:09:53,577 --> 00:09:55,778
You know the message that
that sends to the world?
216
00:09:55,813 --> 00:09:57,613
Why we even doing music
217
00:09:57,681 --> 00:09:59,948
if we don't make a real
imprint on the next generations?
218
00:09:59,984 --> 00:10:01,784
You know what this is about?
219
00:10:01,852 --> 00:10:03,752
You and Dad.
220
00:10:03,821 --> 00:10:05,721
That "end the cycle"
beef you got with him.
221
00:10:05,756 --> 00:10:06,755
Nah, man,
222
00:10:06,791 --> 00:10:08,490
it's about you and Bella.
223
00:10:08,526 --> 00:10:11,326
It's about the fact that our
father... her grandfather...
224
00:10:11,362 --> 00:10:12,928
beat up your favorite producer.
225
00:10:12,963 --> 00:10:16,365
That's really the type of world
you want her to grow up in?
226
00:10:19,703 --> 00:10:21,570
We're going to Laviticus.
227
00:10:21,639 --> 00:10:23,138
Yes, sir, Mr. Lyon.
228
00:10:27,211 --> 00:10:28,777
All right, listen.
229
00:10:28,813 --> 00:10:30,779
What's up, y'all? It's
your boy, Jamal Lyon.
230
00:10:30,815 --> 00:10:32,448
And I'm the smooth baby brother, Hakeem.
231
00:10:32,516 --> 00:10:34,116
And we have a very special announcement.
232
00:10:34,151 --> 00:10:36,118
- Tell 'em, Keem.
- Yeah. Nah, you tell 'em, Mal.
233
00:10:36,187 --> 00:10:38,587
All right, look, this Friday
make sure y'all are tuned in,
234
00:10:38,622 --> 00:10:40,722
8:00... we have a very special event.
235
00:10:40,825 --> 00:10:42,958
And look, #TeamKeem, all day, ladies.
236
00:10:42,993 --> 00:10:44,526
Yeah, yeah. Y'all know what that is.
237
00:10:44,562 --> 00:10:45,594
Hey, what kind of fun-boy stuff
238
00:10:45,663 --> 00:10:47,763
y'all two clowns doing up there, man?
239
00:10:47,832 --> 00:10:49,097
Hey, yo, what this dude doing
240
00:10:49,133 --> 00:10:50,466
- in our spot for, man?!
- Yo, yo, yo...
241
00:10:50,501 --> 00:10:52,034
What it look like I'm doing, man?
242
00:10:52,069 --> 00:10:54,169
I'm coming at you. You a MC. Battle me.
243
00:10:54,238 --> 00:10:56,038
- What, you want to go right now, little man?
- Keem...
244
00:10:56,073 --> 00:10:57,873
No, let's do it in front
of your subscribers.
245
00:10:57,908 --> 00:10:59,208
Let them enjoy the show.
246
00:10:59,243 --> 00:11:01,176
I'm-a bring my subscribers, too.
247
00:11:01,212 --> 00:11:03,846
I designed my own little
streaming apps and everything.
248
00:11:03,948 --> 00:11:05,481
I didn't need daddy money for that.
249
00:11:05,516 --> 00:11:07,182
But since I'm a gentleman,
250
00:11:07,284 --> 00:11:09,284
that's what I'm-a do for you, okay?
251
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:10,986
I'm-a have you bloody
and trending worldwide
252
00:11:11,088 --> 00:11:13,322
in a matter of seconds.
253
00:11:13,357 --> 00:11:15,123
Say "cheese" for the camera.
Y'all like selfies, right?
254
00:11:15,159 --> 00:11:16,325
Yeah, anything for the fans.
255
00:11:16,427 --> 00:11:17,392
Thank you.
256
00:11:17,428 --> 00:11:19,161
We're gonna leave, man.
257
00:11:21,765 --> 00:11:25,000
- I got to go talk to him.
- Wait, stop. Come here!
258
00:11:25,035 --> 00:11:26,802
You are better than that.
We are better than that.
259
00:11:26,837 --> 00:11:27,903
Look at me.
260
00:11:27,938 --> 00:11:30,706
Start using your mind, all right?
261
00:11:30,774 --> 00:11:32,641
How the hell did he even get up in here
262
00:11:32,676 --> 00:11:33,942
with all of this security around?
263
00:11:36,714 --> 00:11:38,747
Lucious.
264
00:11:38,782 --> 00:11:40,749
So, we have that great new song,
265
00:11:40,784 --> 00:11:42,150
"Starlight." Tiana loves it,
266
00:11:42,186 --> 00:11:43,685
and I think it's time to record it.
267
00:11:43,787 --> 00:11:45,020
Well, I don't think it's a lead single.
268
00:11:45,122 --> 00:11:46,421
Now, the song she did at Laviticus is
269
00:11:46,457 --> 00:11:48,524
already getting crazy heat.
And the numbers show...
270
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,392
Can we just stop with the
numbers really quickly?
271
00:11:50,427 --> 00:11:53,362
I actually spoke to Tiana, and
that song is not what she wants.
272
00:11:53,397 --> 00:11:54,830
Well, Becky, in A&R, we can't always
273
00:11:54,865 --> 00:11:56,565
give in to what the artist wants.
274
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:57,900
Do not mansplain to me.
275
00:11:57,935 --> 00:12:00,736
And especially do not
white-mansplain to me.
276
00:12:00,838 --> 00:12:02,504
Then don't be uninformed.
277
00:12:02,540 --> 00:12:03,705
Now, if it makes you feel better,
278
00:12:03,741 --> 00:12:05,240
we can throw an experimental track
279
00:12:05,276 --> 00:12:07,276
- deeper in the album.
- This isn't about how I feel,
280
00:12:07,311 --> 00:12:09,311
first of all, and
secondly, I disagree...
281
00:12:09,413 --> 00:12:10,846
with everything that you are.
282
00:12:10,881 --> 00:12:13,048
Okay. Let's put down the guns.
283
00:12:13,083 --> 00:12:14,516
All right?
284
00:12:14,585 --> 00:12:16,485
Fiddler on the Roof here has a point.
285
00:12:16,554 --> 00:12:18,020
He's looking at the bigger picture.
286
00:12:18,122 --> 00:12:19,555
And I agree with him.
287
00:12:19,590 --> 00:12:22,291
That song Tiana did
is getting crazy heat,
288
00:12:22,326 --> 00:12:24,927
so that is the song
we will record. Okay?
289
00:12:24,962 --> 00:12:26,862
All right, now, can't
we just all get along?
290
00:12:26,897 --> 00:12:27,863
Kiss and make up.
291
00:12:28,899 --> 00:12:30,599
Don't.
292
00:12:38,008 --> 00:12:39,808
Nessa.
293
00:12:39,843 --> 00:12:41,376
Thanks for coming.
294
00:12:41,412 --> 00:12:43,412
You okay?
295
00:12:43,514 --> 00:12:45,614
Yeah, I...
296
00:12:45,649 --> 00:12:47,249
What the hell is going on, Dre?
297
00:12:47,284 --> 00:12:49,618
You think you can just hook up with me
298
00:12:49,653 --> 00:12:51,486
and then not tell me
that you just got done
299
00:12:51,522 --> 00:12:52,754
stomping out my best friend?
300
00:12:52,790 --> 00:12:54,890
- That's what we doing?
- I should've told you.
301
00:12:54,992 --> 00:12:56,592
I couldn't help it.
302
00:12:58,596 --> 00:13:00,095
So what do we do now?
303
00:13:02,199 --> 00:13:04,333
Lucious wants to have
a sit-down with Shine
304
00:13:04,368 --> 00:13:05,500
and get things back on track.
305
00:13:05,536 --> 00:13:06,602
What? A sit...
306
00:13:06,637 --> 00:13:07,936
I promise you, Nessa,
307
00:13:07,972 --> 00:13:09,671
we're not gonna screw him over.
308
00:13:09,707 --> 00:13:11,907
You better not, Dre.
309
00:13:11,976 --> 00:13:13,809
Because he's all I got.
310
00:13:13,877 --> 00:13:16,278
- Come here.
- N...
311
00:13:16,313 --> 00:13:18,780
Come here. Come here. Come here.
312
00:13:23,854 --> 00:13:26,755
I respect that he's all you got.
313
00:13:26,790 --> 00:13:28,724
You could have more.
314
00:13:31,061 --> 00:13:33,462
What you said when you came to see me...
315
00:13:33,497 --> 00:13:36,898
if you had my musical talent...
316
00:13:37,001 --> 00:13:38,433
what did you mean by that?
317
00:13:38,469 --> 00:13:41,069
Help me get Shine to the table.
318
00:13:43,007 --> 00:13:45,841
I'll show you what I meant by that.
319
00:13:51,048 --> 00:13:52,981
All right, Keem, you ready to put...
320
00:13:55,052 --> 00:13:56,852
You look surprised to see me.
321
00:13:56,887 --> 00:13:58,220
Surprised.
322
00:13:58,255 --> 00:14:01,923
But happy to see my son,
even if it's the wrong one.
323
00:14:01,992 --> 00:14:03,759
Okay.
324
00:14:05,529 --> 00:14:07,129
Well, look, I have good news.
325
00:14:07,164 --> 00:14:09,898
Hakeem is squashing that
little petty-ass beef with Gram.
326
00:14:09,933 --> 00:14:11,500
So, yes, I...
327
00:14:11,535 --> 00:14:14,736
I lost Freda, but...
I'm not losing Hakeem.
328
00:14:14,772 --> 00:14:18,874
Why are you throwing bricks when
you live in a glass house, son?
329
00:14:18,942 --> 00:14:21,309
Have you forgotten
all those lies you told
330
00:14:21,345 --> 00:14:23,378
in order to get Freda out of that place?
331
00:14:23,414 --> 00:14:25,514
- I did what I had to do.
- Yeah, and then
332
00:14:25,549 --> 00:14:28,116
you dropped her ass
back off in the projects.
333
00:14:28,218 --> 00:14:30,419
You know, Shakespeare said,
334
00:14:30,454 --> 00:14:32,020
"To thy own self be true."
335
00:14:32,056 --> 00:14:35,357
The sooner you accept that you
are the younger version of me...
336
00:14:35,459 --> 00:14:37,926
with a twist... the sooner you'll be
337
00:14:37,961 --> 00:14:40,796
back on that stage and
be your old self again.
338
00:14:40,898 --> 00:14:43,665
It's this space, man.
339
00:14:43,701 --> 00:14:46,234
Last time I sat in this chair,
I turned against my mother.
340
00:14:46,270 --> 00:14:47,669
Because she deserved it.
341
00:14:47,705 --> 00:14:49,571
And what do you deserve?
342
00:14:49,606 --> 00:14:51,506
How you get so corrupt?
343
00:14:51,608 --> 00:14:54,209
There's no way that
you were born this way.
344
00:14:54,278 --> 00:14:58,346
Jamal, you are 50% genetically
predisposed to become me.
345
00:14:58,382 --> 00:15:00,482
It's inevitable.
346
00:15:00,551 --> 00:15:03,185
You know what I like about Keem?
347
00:15:03,220 --> 00:15:06,455
He knows that he likes what I like,
348
00:15:06,490 --> 00:15:08,757
and he knows he's going to become me.
349
00:15:08,826 --> 00:15:11,126
He knows nothing except
what you told him.
350
00:15:11,161 --> 00:15:13,295
Maybe you should let him
be the man he wants to be
351
00:15:13,330 --> 00:15:14,863
instead of the man
that you want him to be.
352
00:15:14,898 --> 00:15:17,132
Oh, my God, you are so corny, Mal.
353
00:15:17,167 --> 00:15:20,435
I'm-a book a duet with
you and Mary Magdalene,
354
00:15:20,471 --> 00:15:23,405
soon as God gives me the okay.
355
00:15:23,474 --> 00:15:25,407
Oops. I said no.
356
00:15:35,189 --> 00:15:37,523
Hey, girl. How you doing?
357
00:15:37,558 --> 00:15:39,191
You look good! You lost weight.
358
00:15:39,260 --> 00:15:41,794
Julio, my man. Oh.
359
00:15:44,165 --> 00:15:45,731
- Sharlene!
- Holloway.
360
00:15:45,766 --> 00:15:47,900
Hey, girl, I bought you your favorite.
361
00:15:47,935 --> 00:15:50,836
- Keep it. You're late.
- Excuse me?
362
00:15:50,905 --> 00:15:54,139
Your appointment was 9:00
a.m. It's a quarter to 10:00.
363
00:15:55,576 --> 00:15:59,044
I know, but I always
come here at this time.
364
00:15:59,113 --> 00:16:02,548
You seem a little off. Is
there something I can do?
365
00:16:02,617 --> 00:16:04,250
The rules of your supervised
release stipulate that
366
00:16:04,285 --> 00:16:06,552
you need to contact me if
you're going to be late.
367
00:16:06,587 --> 00:16:08,187
I'm gonna have to write you up.
368
00:16:14,128 --> 00:16:16,695
What's going on, Sharlene?
369
00:16:16,731 --> 00:16:18,697
I don't know what you mean.
370
00:16:18,733 --> 00:16:20,699
Well, the last time I was here,
371
00:16:20,735 --> 00:16:23,002
you were showing me
pictures of your kids, and...
372
00:16:23,037 --> 00:16:24,403
now you're acting brand-new.
373
00:16:24,505 --> 00:16:25,504
About that.
374
00:16:25,573 --> 00:16:27,339
Your last visit was three months ago.
375
00:16:27,375 --> 00:16:29,875
Since you can't tell time,
we're going to have to have you
376
00:16:29,911 --> 00:16:31,210
report here three times a week.
377
00:16:31,245 --> 00:16:32,878
Oh! Sharlene, no, come on, now.
378
00:16:32,980 --> 00:16:34,380
You know I run a company.
379
00:16:34,415 --> 00:16:36,282
I can't come here three times a week.
380
00:16:36,317 --> 00:16:37,583
This isn't some thug rapper
381
00:16:37,618 --> 00:16:39,018
you're negotiating with, Holloway.
382
00:16:39,053 --> 00:16:42,521
This is the United States government.
383
00:16:52,133 --> 00:16:53,465
You need time to consider,
384
00:16:53,501 --> 00:16:55,935
I can send you back to
Danbury to think it over.
385
00:16:56,003 --> 00:16:59,004
Right now, you need to use the bathroom.
386
00:17:16,157 --> 00:17:18,123
Let's just get this over with.
387
00:17:18,192 --> 00:17:19,758
I'm sorry.
388
00:17:19,794 --> 00:17:22,394
I know you're not excited
to come in to record "Me."
389
00:17:22,463 --> 00:17:24,697
I get it... it's what Cookie wants.
390
00:17:26,367 --> 00:17:28,767
What if I told you that
you're actually here
391
00:17:28,803 --> 00:17:30,469
to record "Starlight"
392
00:17:30,504 --> 00:17:33,105
because it's about to
be your lead single?
393
00:17:33,207 --> 00:17:35,074
What? I thought Cookie said that...
394
00:17:35,109 --> 00:17:37,910
No, I... I talked her out of it.
395
00:17:37,945 --> 00:17:40,779
I told her that you were
gonna get in that booth
396
00:17:40,815 --> 00:17:42,514
and slay the hell out of that song,
397
00:17:42,550 --> 00:17:44,617
and she... agreed with me.
398
00:17:44,685 --> 00:17:46,185
- Are you serious?
- Dead serious.
399
00:17:46,220 --> 00:17:48,287
Oh, my God! Yo, thank you!
400
00:17:48,389 --> 00:17:49,488
You're the best.
401
00:17:49,523 --> 00:17:51,423
You know I got your back
like bra straps, girl.
402
00:17:51,525 --> 00:17:52,458
Yo!
403
00:17:52,493 --> 00:17:54,994
- I'm-a always get you what you want.
- Yeah! Yes!
404
00:17:57,531 --> 00:17:59,865
"I asked for bread in the name
405
00:17:59,900 --> 00:18:04,303
"of love and mercy, but
humanity did not heed me.
406
00:18:08,142 --> 00:18:11,477
So now I shall take it
in the name of evil."
407
00:18:13,147 --> 00:18:14,647
Why's she always sleeping?
408
00:18:15,916 --> 00:18:17,483
'Cause that's what babies do, son.
409
00:18:17,518 --> 00:18:20,119
They sleep.
410
00:18:20,154 --> 00:18:22,821
But you can't afford to do that.
411
00:18:22,890 --> 00:18:24,957
You see, as a patriarch of the family,
412
00:18:25,026 --> 00:18:26,792
you're responsible for
413
00:18:26,827 --> 00:18:31,130
teaching your young ones how
to survive in this cold world.
414
00:18:31,198 --> 00:18:32,564
Jamal don't understand that.
415
00:18:32,633 --> 00:18:33,832
He thinks it's all
416
00:18:33,901 --> 00:18:36,268
Kumbaya and love, but he's wrong.
417
00:18:39,073 --> 00:18:40,673
It's kill or be killed.
418
00:18:40,775 --> 00:18:41,840
Eat or be eaten.
419
00:18:41,876 --> 00:18:43,142
Look, I know you're trying
420
00:18:43,177 --> 00:18:44,576
to get me up under you
421
00:18:44,612 --> 00:18:46,245
like how you got Andre up under you.
422
00:18:48,182 --> 00:18:49,715
I want you to crush Gram
423
00:18:49,784 --> 00:18:51,483
because it means money for Empire,
424
00:18:51,519 --> 00:18:54,086
and Empire XStream needs that kind of
425
00:18:54,121 --> 00:18:55,854
fanfare and activity.
426
00:18:55,890 --> 00:18:58,190
But I want you to destroy him,
427
00:18:58,225 --> 00:18:59,825
'cause you're a Lyon,
428
00:18:59,894 --> 00:19:05,197
and I want the world to know that
you're not someone to be trifled with.
429
00:19:05,266 --> 00:19:09,334
I want this little girl to know
what kind of man her daddy is.
430
00:19:09,370 --> 00:19:11,503
Why is everybody
bringing Bella into this?
431
00:19:11,539 --> 00:19:14,173
Because, like you...
432
00:19:14,208 --> 00:19:17,676
she was born a Lyon.
433
00:19:17,712 --> 00:19:19,978
So she's born into this.
434
00:19:21,549 --> 00:19:23,716
See this book?
435
00:19:23,751 --> 00:19:25,050
It's written by Kahlil Gibran.
436
00:19:25,086 --> 00:19:26,719
It's called A Tear and a Smile.
437
00:19:26,754 --> 00:19:31,356
Inside it is the story
of "The Criminal."
438
00:19:31,425 --> 00:19:35,160
It tells of a young man...
439
00:19:35,262 --> 00:19:37,229
who was very kind of heart,
440
00:19:37,298 --> 00:19:40,833
and he depended on the
kindness of humanity
441
00:19:40,901 --> 00:19:42,768
in order for him to eat.
442
00:19:42,870 --> 00:19:46,572
But after some time, he found
himself starving to death.
443
00:19:46,607 --> 00:19:49,274
And right when you thought
he was about to die,
444
00:19:49,310 --> 00:19:51,577
he realized his own true nature.
445
00:19:51,645 --> 00:19:54,780
You see, Keem, the
nature of humanity isn't
446
00:19:54,815 --> 00:19:59,952
love and peaceful,
it's dark and beastly.
447
00:20:00,020 --> 00:20:03,255
And it'll turn the meek and
the humble into a criminal,
448
00:20:03,290 --> 00:20:06,125
and the sons of peace into...
449
00:20:06,193 --> 00:20:08,727
destroyers of men.
450
00:20:14,268 --> 00:20:17,669
He became a destroyer of men.
451
00:20:17,705 --> 00:20:19,471
Because he had to.

Um, one, can you not
do the stool like that?
493
00:22:21,395 --> 00:22:22,794
It makes you look pissed.
494
00:22:22,863 --> 00:22:25,063
And then also, you are
literally out of bounds.
495
00:22:25,099 --> 00:22:26,431
That's what all this tape is for.
496
00:22:26,467 --> 00:22:27,532
You're, like, in my balcony.
497
00:22:27,568 --> 00:22:30,569
Yo, this whole performance is too soft.
498
00:22:30,604 --> 00:22:32,437
It needs to command respect, Mal.
499
00:22:32,506 --> 00:22:34,406
Yo, why you sounding like Lucious now?
500
00:22:34,475 --> 00:22:36,575
Hakeem, our performance
is tomorrow, okay?
501
00:22:36,610 --> 00:22:39,244
They're rearranging my entire
apartment, and we have a song.
502
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,280
- A dope song.
- It is dope, but this verse,
503
00:22:41,315 --> 00:22:43,548
I need to use to clap back to my haters.
504
00:22:43,617 --> 00:22:44,716
No, you should not.
505
00:22:44,752 --> 00:22:46,451
You know what, you're literally
506
00:22:46,487 --> 00:22:48,520
gonna stand your whole career
doing clap-back records.
507
00:22:48,589 --> 00:22:49,621
That's fine, and I don't care,
508
00:22:49,690 --> 00:22:51,123
but do it on someone else's track,
509
00:22:51,158 --> 00:22:52,958
'cause you're not gonna
put that B.S. on mine.
510
00:22:52,993 --> 00:22:54,393
We got terms and conditions?
511
00:22:54,461 --> 00:22:55,994
If you had enough followers,
512
00:22:56,030 --> 00:22:58,764
you'd be doing this on your
own channel, not Empire XStream.
513
00:22:58,799 --> 00:23:00,966
You know what, bro, you
about to piss me off.
514
00:23:01,001 --> 00:23:03,735
Bro, you're the one
that needs this, not me.
515
00:23:03,771 --> 00:23:06,772
You're the one that's
losing his fans, not me.
516
00:23:06,807 --> 00:23:09,041
Now, if it's gonna be
terms and conditions,
517
00:23:09,109 --> 00:23:11,343
just think about it... it's mine.
518
00:23:11,378 --> 00:23:12,811
'Cause everybody knows
519
00:23:12,846 --> 00:23:14,546
this concert is life or death for you.
520
00:23:15,849 --> 00:23:17,582
Just think about it.
521
00:23:28,568 --> 00:23:30,134
Arms up.
522
00:23:30,170 --> 00:23:33,037
Hey, come on, man.
Hey, if I was packing,
523
00:23:33,073 --> 00:23:35,139
I would have violated
the terms of the sit-down.
524
00:23:35,175 --> 00:23:36,274
This is a violation.
525
00:23:36,342 --> 00:23:38,076
If I wanted to violate you,
526
00:23:38,111 --> 00:23:40,878
Shine, you'd be getting
patted down with some bullets.
527
00:23:40,914 --> 00:23:42,447
Yeah. Is that right?
528
00:23:42,549 --> 00:23:43,815
Well, I got four shooters outside
529
00:23:43,850 --> 00:23:44,916
that say you won't.
530
00:23:44,951 --> 00:23:46,317
No, you got three.
531
00:23:46,352 --> 00:23:48,553
One stayed back at a five-star hotel,
532
00:23:48,588 --> 00:23:52,490
where he's getting some room
service sent up by me right now.
533
00:23:52,525 --> 00:23:54,992
And if you like, I can
send your boys outside
534
00:23:55,028 --> 00:23:56,394
a snack, too.
535
00:23:56,429 --> 00:23:58,629
Don't forget I do this, Shine.
536
00:23:58,665 --> 00:24:00,498
No, you don't do this, Lucious.
537
00:24:00,533 --> 00:24:01,766
I do this.
538
00:24:01,868 --> 00:24:03,801
You ain't did this for years.
539
00:24:03,837 --> 00:24:06,237
You industry. And I'm
still in the streets.
540
00:24:06,272 --> 00:24:07,939
And if I got to blow somebody up,
541
00:24:07,974 --> 00:24:09,740
I don't care if I die with him.
542
00:24:09,809 --> 00:24:11,909
But you already know this.
543
00:24:11,945 --> 00:24:13,578
Look, maybe we got off
544
00:24:13,613 --> 00:24:15,413
on the wrong foot, huh?
545
00:24:15,448 --> 00:24:17,348
You want a drink or something, man?
546
00:24:17,383 --> 00:24:18,749
No, I'm straight.
547
00:24:18,785 --> 00:24:20,618
'Cause we can talk tough all night.
548
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,822
But last time I checked, we had
something real good going with Nessa.
549
00:24:24,924 --> 00:24:26,958
Yeah, I thought so, too.
550
00:24:26,993 --> 00:24:28,993
That's until you and your son
tried to divide and conquer.
551
00:24:29,028 --> 00:24:30,261
You came at us first, man.
552
00:24:30,363 --> 00:24:31,629
What is this?
553
00:24:31,664 --> 00:24:34,532
What are we doing?
554
00:24:34,567 --> 00:24:36,901
Come on, Lucious, it's me, bro.
555
00:24:37,003 --> 00:24:38,903
I could have buried you a long time ago
556
00:24:39,005 --> 00:24:40,805
with any one of them bodies you got.
557
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:42,640
You forget Camden?
558
00:24:42,675 --> 00:24:43,975
Hold on, man.
559
00:24:44,077 --> 00:24:45,877
It's me you're talking to.
560
00:24:45,912 --> 00:24:47,044
Calling me "bro,"
561
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:48,679
and you're gonna bring
something like that up?
562
00:24:48,715 --> 00:24:51,482
Which I don't know what the
hell you're talking about.
563
00:24:51,518 --> 00:24:53,184
But if I did,
564
00:24:53,253 --> 00:24:55,753
that would be violating code right here.
565
00:24:55,822 --> 00:24:57,221
Okay, you know what?
566
00:24:57,257 --> 00:24:58,856
This is a waste of my time.
567
00:24:58,892 --> 00:25:00,825
Come on, Nessa, let's move.
568
00:25:00,894 --> 00:25:03,694
Shine. Hey, I thought
I heard you in here,
569
00:25:03,730 --> 00:25:05,830
waking up my baby.
570
00:25:05,865 --> 00:25:08,733
Look, Anika, we in the
middle of something right now.
571
00:25:08,768 --> 00:25:11,969
Oh, good. Did you tell him
about the idea that we discussed?
572
00:25:12,071 --> 00:25:13,471
My husband,
573
00:25:13,506 --> 00:25:15,239
just the other day, he had just said
574
00:25:15,275 --> 00:25:17,842
how much he really appreciates
having you around here.
575
00:25:17,877 --> 00:25:19,610
You know, putting your ear to Hakeem,
576
00:25:19,712 --> 00:25:21,045
bringing in Nessa.
577
00:25:21,114 --> 00:25:22,513
He even said that it was such a shame
578
00:25:22,549 --> 00:25:25,883
that your talent had been
slept on all this time, and...
579
00:25:25,919 --> 00:25:27,985
imagine what you could
do with your own imprint.
580
00:25:28,021 --> 00:25:29,854
Right, babe?
581
00:25:29,923 --> 00:25:32,056
But, you know, I mean,
if you ever need somebody
582
00:25:32,125 --> 00:25:34,158
to bounce anything off of, I'm here.
583
00:25:34,260 --> 00:25:36,160
Just let me know.
584
00:25:38,231 --> 00:25:40,198
Good to see you.
585
00:25:43,436 --> 00:25:46,170
Is that what you're offering, Lucious?
586
00:25:46,239 --> 00:25:48,072
My own imprint?
587
00:25:48,107 --> 00:25:49,941
That's what I was trying to get to
588
00:25:49,976 --> 00:25:54,245
when you came charging in like
King Kong or something, man.
589
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,013
Is Nessa part of that deal?
590
00:25:56,049 --> 00:26:00,017
Look, Nessa's under a different
contract with Empire, but...
591
00:26:00,053 --> 00:26:02,019
we can cross-pollinate, man.
592
00:26:02,055 --> 00:26:04,322
What about Freda Gatz?
593
00:26:04,424 --> 00:26:06,023
I heard she out.
594
00:26:06,092 --> 00:26:07,692
I hear she's dope.
595
00:26:11,164 --> 00:26:15,800
Hey, if Freda gets it done
for you, she's all yours, bro.
596
00:26:15,835 --> 00:26:18,536
Freda's the one, Shine.
597
00:26:18,571 --> 00:26:21,138
And this could be a good deal for you.
598
00:26:21,174 --> 00:26:23,040
Oh, for me, huh?
599
00:26:23,076 --> 00:26:25,443
For us, Shine.
600
00:26:27,447 --> 00:26:29,313
We got a deal.
601
00:26:30,617 --> 00:26:33,551
Welcome to the Empire, baby.
602
00:26:37,357 --> 00:26:39,423
Hey, you okay? I barely got through,
603
00:26:39,459 --> 00:26:42,960
uh, last two meetings.
604
00:26:42,996 --> 00:26:45,329
You been talking to
my probation officer?
605
00:26:45,365 --> 00:26:47,665
Say what? No.
606
00:26:47,700 --> 00:26:49,800
Why would I do that?
607
00:26:49,836 --> 00:26:52,270
So, it's a total coincidence
that after I tell you
608
00:26:52,372 --> 00:26:54,805
I'm on supervised release,
609
00:26:54,907 --> 00:26:57,508
my P.O. starts acting strict with me.
610
00:26:57,543 --> 00:26:59,777
No, I don't know nothing
about that. It's not me.
611
00:26:59,812 --> 00:27:02,313
Hmm. Then it must be because
you're running for mayor
612
00:27:02,348 --> 00:27:04,148
and you want to keep me in check.
613
00:27:04,183 --> 00:27:06,817
Oh, uh, okay, look,
614
00:27:06,853 --> 00:27:09,854
I don't make a habit of
keeping women in check.
615
00:27:09,889 --> 00:27:12,690
You must've got me confused
with your ex-husband.
616
00:27:12,725 --> 00:27:15,059
Leave Lucious out of this, man.
617
00:27:15,128 --> 00:27:16,594
Well, how can I?
618
00:27:16,629 --> 00:27:17,762
He's making sure
619
00:27:17,797 --> 00:27:20,064
he's very much a part of this.
620
00:27:20,166 --> 00:27:22,333
And what the hell is that
supposed to mean, Angelo?
621
00:27:22,368 --> 00:27:25,036
Cookie, look, I'm feeling you.
Okay, I know you know this.
622
00:27:25,071 --> 00:27:26,771
But you and Lucious,
623
00:27:26,806 --> 00:27:29,240
y'all got some unresolved
issues you need to take care of.
624
00:27:29,342 --> 00:27:33,010
My only issue is being
told what issues I have.
625
00:27:33,046 --> 00:27:34,645
See, Angelo,
626
00:27:34,681 --> 00:27:36,714
- you don't know me like that.
- I don't. How can I?
627
00:27:36,749 --> 00:27:38,282
You don't let me. Every time I try
628
00:27:38,318 --> 00:27:40,017
to get close to you, you put a wall up.
629
00:27:40,086 --> 00:27:41,852
- Aw, man...
- See? Look, there you go.
630
00:27:41,921 --> 00:27:43,154
- I can't! What?
- Okay.
631
00:27:43,189 --> 00:27:44,689
Uh, let's just cut this night short,
632
00:27:44,757 --> 00:27:47,491
all right, 'cause we're both
getting reckless in the mouth...
633
00:27:47,593 --> 00:27:49,193
- Yeah.
- ... and one of us is gonna say something
634
00:27:49,262 --> 00:27:50,461
that we're gonna regret.
635
00:27:50,496 --> 00:27:51,696
Already did that.
636
00:27:53,333 --> 00:27:54,865
Good night, Cookie.
637
00:27:54,901 --> 00:27:56,434
Yeah, well, good night.
638
00:27:58,705 --> 00:28:00,604
- Thank you.
- Good luck.

Yet you still disobeyed a direct order,
654
00:28:47,653 --> 00:28:48,953
and you lied to Tiana.
655
00:28:48,988 --> 00:28:50,421
This ain't Chutes and Ladders.
656
00:28:50,456 --> 00:28:52,256
It's the music business.
657
00:28:52,291 --> 00:28:55,793
I thought you people understood
what the word "business" meant.
658
00:28:55,828 --> 00:28:57,762
You know, Cookie is going to be pissed.
659
00:28:57,864 --> 00:29:00,731
I know. That's why I wanted
you to listen to the song first.
660
00:29:00,767 --> 00:29:02,733
You can help me convince
Cookie that this song is a hit.
661
00:29:02,802 --> 00:29:04,935
- I don't know that it is a hit.
- Yes, you do!
662
00:29:05,004 --> 00:29:06,604
The song is dope. Listen to it.
663
00:29:06,639 --> 00:29:09,306
More importantly, it's
what the artist wants.
664
00:29:09,342 --> 00:29:11,308
All we have to do is let
Cookie hear it tomorrow.
665
00:29:11,344 --> 00:29:13,778
She'll love it, and
all will be forgiven.
666
00:29:13,813 --> 00:29:15,446

I'm-a give you the number
to my cleaning lady,
673
00:29:30,630 --> 00:29:33,397
because this place
is disgusting, Hakeem.
674
00:29:33,499 --> 00:29:35,800
I should've known you
would have ran to Mom.
675
00:29:35,902 --> 00:29:37,435
So much for being a grown-up.
676
00:29:37,470 --> 00:29:38,803
Yeah, I played her the song.
677
00:29:38,871 --> 00:29:41,005
Yes, and it's fire, and you will do it
678
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,407
the way you and Jamal
arranged it, end of story.
679
00:29:43,509 --> 00:29:45,176
How you gonna make me?
680
00:29:45,211 --> 00:29:47,411
- Why don't you stop acting like a baby.
- You the baby!
681
00:29:47,447 --> 00:29:49,413
You the baby, the dumb little
baby... that's what you do.
682
00:29:49,449 --> 00:29:50,581
And you the semi-bald-
headed-looking baby.
683
00:29:50,650 --> 00:29:52,917
Shut up!
684
00:29:52,952 --> 00:29:55,920
Now, what did I have, two
boys or two little girls?
685
00:29:55,955 --> 00:29:58,823
'Cause y'all sound like two sissies.
686
00:30:00,693 --> 00:30:03,761
Now, what did I tell y'all way
back at that investor showcase?
687
00:30:03,796 --> 00:30:06,997
Hmm? What y'all not gonna
do is come in between
688
00:30:07,033 --> 00:30:08,666
me and my money.
689
00:30:08,701 --> 00:30:10,768
Now, it's been too long
since you and your brother
690
00:30:10,870 --> 00:30:12,203
performed in front of the people.
691
00:30:12,238 --> 00:30:13,237
And that's what they want,
692
00:30:13,272 --> 00:30:14,538
and that's what we will give them.
693
00:30:14,574 --> 00:30:16,340
Y'all just trying to drag me
694
00:30:16,375 --> 00:30:18,209
into a fight y'all are
having with Lucious.
695
00:30:18,244 --> 00:30:19,810
Get your narrow ass back up here, boy.
696
00:30:19,879 --> 00:30:21,479
Don't you ever walk away from me.
697
00:30:24,584 --> 00:30:27,017
I'm trying to stop one son
698
00:30:27,053 --> 00:30:29,687
from clapping back at an artist
that's not even on our label.
699
00:30:29,789 --> 00:30:30,554
Mm-hmm.
700
00:30:30,590 --> 00:30:32,056
Oh. And I'm only trying
701
00:30:32,091 --> 00:30:34,391
to help my other son
get back to performing
702
00:30:34,427 --> 00:30:36,160
in front of his fans before they forget
703
00:30:36,229 --> 00:30:38,162
how much they love his stupid ass.
704
00:30:38,264 --> 00:30:40,030
Mm-hmm.
705
00:30:40,132 --> 00:30:41,765
If you are afraid
706
00:30:41,834 --> 00:30:45,236
of getting on the wrong
side of your daddy...
707
00:30:45,271 --> 00:30:48,305
you don't want to get on
the wrong side of your mama.
708
00:30:48,341 --> 00:30:49,607
You feel me?
709
00:30:50,710 --> 00:30:53,210
I said, do you feel me?
710
00:30:53,279 --> 00:30:54,778
Yeah, I feel you.
711
00:30:55,882 --> 00:30:57,548
Good. Come here.
712
00:30:57,617 --> 00:30:58,782
Mmm.
713
00:31:01,587 --> 00:31:03,020
Hey, Ma...

Smelling like ass in here!
716
00:31:06,893 --> 00:31:08,926
Next time, take your shoes
off in my house, please.
717
00:31:08,961 --> 00:31:10,961
- Shut up, Hakeem.
- Boy, you better clean this place up before
718
00:31:11,030 --> 00:31:13,330
I throw an acid bomb in
here. Nasty-ass pigsty.
719
00:31:17,004 --> 00:31:18,536
What's up, everybody?
It's your boy, Jamal Lyon.

so much for tuning in.

beef. We crush that.

we could have talked about
this at a different time.

level, and I want to know why!

00:35:16,143 --> 00:35:18,977
Wack-ass performance was
your idea in the first place!

I shouldn't have never listened to you.
824
00:35:22,048 --> 00:35:23,515

825
00:35:23,550 --> 00:35:25,216

there and do it yourself!

Hakeem... nothing happened!

00:35:40,066 --> 00:35:42,967

We didn't vibe together?

- Turn these cameras off!
845
00:36:01,937 --> 00:36:04,003
Hello, Becky. Come in. Have a seat.
846
00:36:04,039 --> 00:36:06,773
So, uh, Tiana...
847
00:36:06,875 --> 00:36:08,675
unfortunately, there
was a miscommunication
848
00:36:08,710 --> 00:36:10,510
in your lead song, so...
849
00:36:10,545 --> 00:36:14,047
we're gonna have to postpone
the release of your album.
850
00:36:14,082 --> 00:36:16,216
No... What do you mean,
a miscommunication?
851
00:36:16,251 --> 00:36:19,319
Well, Xavier told me that
you recorded "Starlight"...
852
00:36:19,387 --> 00:36:21,154
which that is lightweight snitchin',
853
00:36:21,189 --> 00:36:22,856
but we gonna deal with that later.
854
00:36:22,891 --> 00:36:25,558
I did not sign off on that song.
855
00:36:25,660 --> 00:36:27,627
So now we got to put
you back in the studio
856
00:36:27,696 --> 00:36:29,229
to record "Me," the song I wanted.
857
00:36:30,365 --> 00:36:32,298
So... you lied to me?
858
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:33,933
No. I believed in the song.
859
00:36:33,969 --> 00:36:35,168
I can't work with no liars, Cookie.
860
00:36:35,203 --> 00:36:36,503
- I want her off my team.
- What?
861
00:36:36,538 --> 00:36:37,737
Are you serious?
862
00:36:37,772 --> 00:36:39,205
I'm the only one around
here fighting for you.
863
00:36:39,241 --> 00:36:40,773
Yeah, and look where it got me.
864
00:36:40,809 --> 00:36:44,711
T... Cookie, she's just mad right now.
865
00:36:44,746 --> 00:36:46,179
Please don't take me off her team.
866
00:36:46,248 --> 00:36:47,413
You said it, Becky.
867
00:36:47,516 --> 00:36:49,549
We got to give the artist
what they want. Now...
868
00:36:49,584 --> 00:36:52,519
I can try and talk to her and
see if I can change her mind,
869
00:36:52,621 --> 00:36:54,187
but... you did this.
870
00:36:54,256 --> 00:36:55,855
You need to learn how to listen.
871
00:37:00,262 --> 00:37:02,328
What happened? I thought
you liked the song.
872
00:37:02,397 --> 00:37:03,696
I did.
873
00:37:03,732 --> 00:37:05,865
So why didn't you have my back?
874
00:37:06,935 --> 00:37:08,902
It's just business.
875
00:37:16,311 --> 00:37:18,578
There she is. Cookie,
876
00:37:18,613 --> 00:37:20,580
I'd like to introduce you
to a good friend of mine,
877
00:37:20,649 --> 00:37:21,781
Gus Rodriguez.
878
00:37:21,816 --> 00:37:23,283
You know Ms. Davis.
879
00:37:23,318 --> 00:37:24,817
Oh, so...
880
00:37:24,853 --> 00:37:26,452
it's like this now, huh, Angelo?
881
00:37:26,488 --> 00:37:28,321
I'm here to apologize, Ms. Lyon.
882
00:37:28,356 --> 00:37:30,924
Ms. Lyon, Officer Davis
has been reprimanded
883
00:37:30,959 --> 00:37:32,959
for her overzealous behavior.
884
00:37:32,994 --> 00:37:34,460
She hopes that that will be sufficient,
885
00:37:34,496 --> 00:37:36,195
and you won't choose
to file a complaint.
886
00:37:36,298 --> 00:37:37,730
I'm not.
887
00:37:38,934 --> 00:37:41,167
Uh, what's going on here?
888
00:37:41,202 --> 00:37:42,569
It seems that we got
889
00:37:42,604 --> 00:37:44,737
some wrong information about
an ongoing investigation
890
00:37:44,773 --> 00:37:47,140
that has nothing to do with you.
891
00:37:47,242 --> 00:37:50,109
So who you saying told her
to put the squeeze on me?
892
00:37:50,145 --> 00:37:52,512
I'm not at liberty to say, but
you've been a model offender,
893
00:37:52,547 --> 00:37:55,582
and my office sees no reason
to extend your restrictions.
894
00:37:55,617 --> 00:37:57,584
I've known my man here
since we balled at Columbia.
895
00:37:57,619 --> 00:37:59,752
He says you're good
people; you're good with me.
896
00:37:59,788 --> 00:38:01,688
Okay. I'll wait for you out front.
897
00:38:01,723 --> 00:38:02,922
All right, man, thanks.
898
00:38:02,958 --> 00:38:04,891
I'll see you in three months, Hollo...
899
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:06,192
Ms. Lyon.
900
00:38:06,227 --> 00:38:07,660
Give the kids my love, Sharlene.
901
00:38:07,696 --> 00:38:09,963
So you went to a lot
of trouble for me, huh?
902
00:38:10,065 --> 00:38:11,764
I saw your boys tonight
903
00:38:11,833 --> 00:38:14,767
on Empire XStream, and, uh...
904
00:38:14,803 --> 00:38:17,036
I realized something
about you and your family.
905
00:38:17,105 --> 00:38:19,272
Yeah, I'm sure the whole world did.
906
00:38:19,307 --> 00:38:22,609
Well, I realized that... fighting
907
00:38:22,677 --> 00:38:24,377
is your family's way of life.
908
00:38:24,412 --> 00:38:26,613
It's... it's like it's in your blood.
909
00:38:26,648 --> 00:38:29,015
But somehow, y'all got
the idea that I'm...
910
00:38:29,050 --> 00:38:30,650
I'm not a fighter.
911
00:38:30,685 --> 00:38:32,986
Look, I am not trying to
fight with you right now.
912
00:38:33,021 --> 00:38:34,988
Baby girl, I'm not talking about
913
00:38:35,023 --> 00:38:36,789
fighting with you...
914
00:38:36,825 --> 00:38:38,691
I'm talking about fighting for you.
915
00:38:40,829 --> 00:38:43,696
And if that means going
up against Lucious, well...
916
00:38:43,732 --> 00:38:45,365
then so be it.
917
00:38:48,503 --> 00:38:49,669
Hmm.
918
00:38:52,107 --> 00:38:53,973
You got me all the
way out in Brownsville.
919
00:38:54,009 --> 00:38:55,174
I hope you're ready to talk.
920
00:38:55,243 --> 00:38:56,743
Yeah, I'm ready to talk.
921
00:38:56,778 --> 00:38:59,178
You ready to be about that WITSEC life?
922
00:39:00,415 --> 00:39:02,849
WITSEC? You must be smoking.
923
00:39:02,917 --> 00:39:04,784
You ain't gonna be walking
around in the sunshine
924
00:39:04,886 --> 00:39:06,152
after giving me a body.
925
00:39:06,187 --> 00:39:07,487
Even you ain't that crazy, my G.
926
00:39:07,589 --> 00:39:08,855
What body?
927
00:39:08,957 --> 00:39:10,523
The one you and Lucious hid
928
00:39:10,558 --> 00:39:13,660
in a slab of concrete back in Camden.
929
00:39:13,695 --> 00:39:15,261
I don't know what you're talking about.
930
00:39:15,296 --> 00:39:16,629
You know what I'm talking about.
931
00:39:16,731 --> 00:39:18,731
Look, I ain't the one to
be playing with, Shine.
932
00:39:18,767 --> 00:39:20,600
I'm squeezing the Lyon
family on all sides.
933
00:39:20,635 --> 00:39:23,670
Got Cookie's P.O. to tighten
the leash on her, and I can
934
00:39:23,705 --> 00:39:25,471
turn that same heat
on you anytime I want.
935
00:39:25,540 --> 00:39:29,008
That don't sound like gratitude, Tariq.
936
00:39:29,044 --> 00:39:30,410
Especially when I'm about to make
937
00:39:30,445 --> 00:39:31,644
Christmas come early for you.
938
00:39:35,450 --> 00:39:36,649
Who's that?
939
00:39:36,718 --> 00:39:39,052
That's Freda Gatz.
940
00:39:39,087 --> 00:39:41,721
The rapper that shot
Jamal Lyon at the ASAs?
941
00:39:41,790 --> 00:39:43,723
Exactly.
942
00:39:46,661 --> 00:39:49,128
Do you know who her dad was?
943
00:39:49,164 --> 00:39:51,064
- Remember Frank Gathers?
- Of course I remember Frank.
944
00:39:51,132 --> 00:39:52,565
You, Lucious and Cookie,
945
00:39:52,634 --> 00:39:54,834
you used to run material
for him back in the day.
946
00:39:54,903 --> 00:39:56,235
Allegedly.
947
00:39:56,271 --> 00:39:58,204
More importantly, you know her father
948
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:00,106
was locked up with Lucious at the BCC.
949
00:40:00,141 --> 00:40:02,809
You know, he got killed up there.
950
00:40:02,844 --> 00:40:07,080
Now, I can't tell if it was
a coincidence or... or what.
951
00:40:07,115 --> 00:40:08,981
I don't know.
952
00:40:09,017 --> 00:40:11,684
So you saying Lucious had
something to do with it?
953
00:40:11,753 --> 00:40:13,419
Nah, that's not what I'm saying.
954
00:40:13,455 --> 00:40:15,221
Actually, I ain't saying nothing.
955
00:40:15,256 --> 00:40:17,957
I'm just taking my dog for a
walk through the neighborhood.
956
00:40:26,668 --> 00:40:29,802
I know what you was up to in
that meeting with Shine today.
957
00:40:29,838 --> 00:40:31,971
I ain't mad at you, though.
958
00:40:32,006 --> 00:40:34,507
It was a good idea.
959
00:40:34,576 --> 00:40:36,442
Well, when it comes to good ideas,
960
00:40:36,478 --> 00:40:38,611
let's just say I learned from the best.
961
00:40:40,014 --> 00:40:42,381
Nah, I'm just glad I could help.
962
00:40:44,352 --> 00:40:48,955
I could continue being a help, you know.
963
00:40:49,057 --> 00:40:50,456
Shine's gonna need an A&R.
964
00:40:50,525 --> 00:40:52,959
Look at you.
965
00:40:53,027 --> 00:40:54,427
Trying to get something for yourself
966
00:40:54,462 --> 00:40:55,828
out of this whole thing.
967
00:40:55,897 --> 00:40:57,463
- I'm just saying.
- Yeah.
968
00:40:57,532 --> 00:40:59,232
I'll think about it, all right?
969
00:41:01,302 --> 00:41:03,669
Look, let me talk to
my boy for a minute.
970
00:41:03,772 --> 00:41:04,937
Okay.
971
00:41:09,811 --> 00:41:11,778
I'm-a place her right on your chest.
972
00:41:11,813 --> 00:41:13,813
She's so tiny, I think
I'm gonna break her.
973
00:41:13,882 --> 00:41:15,148
Nah, don't worry.
974
00:41:15,183 --> 00:41:17,717
Just trust yourself.
975
00:41:17,752 --> 00:41:19,418
Right there.
976
00:41:19,487 --> 00:41:22,622
Make sure her head is nice and relaxed.
977
00:41:22,724 --> 00:41:24,991
You were right, Dad.
978
00:41:25,059 --> 00:41:27,093
Yeah.
979
00:41:27,162 --> 00:41:29,462
I wasn't gonna let you
get punked like that.
980
00:41:29,531 --> 00:41:30,696
And if that means you got to
981
00:41:30,765 --> 00:41:32,198
go to war with your brothers, then...
982
00:41:32,300 --> 00:41:33,900
so be it.
983
00:41:33,935 --> 00:41:35,301
You were right about Jamal, too.
984
00:41:35,370 --> 00:41:36,335
Yeah, I know.
985
00:41:37,772 --> 00:41:39,205
So this means I don't have to
986
00:41:39,240 --> 00:41:40,706
play tug-of-war with you no more?
987
00:41:40,742 --> 00:41:42,675
I wasn't trying to do that.
988
00:41:44,345 --> 00:41:46,879
You want what's right for Bella, right?
989
00:41:46,915 --> 00:41:49,115
Want to set the world up for her.
990
00:41:49,217 --> 00:41:51,784
But I need to find
myself again, musically.
991
00:41:51,853 --> 00:41:54,353
But things are just so
tense with Shine right now.
992
00:41:54,389 --> 00:41:57,557
Ah, don't worry about
him. I took care of that.
993
00:41:57,592 --> 00:41:59,025
Look at her.
994
00:41:59,060 --> 00:42:00,593
Sound asleep in your arms.
995
00:42:02,530 --> 00:42:05,164
It's the first time she's
not screaming in my arms.
996
00:42:05,233 --> 00:42:06,365
Know why?
997
00:42:06,434 --> 00:42:09,535
You got your swagger back.
998
00:42:11,206 --> 00:42:12,371
Come on.
999
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:14,674
Let's put her down over here.
1000
00:42:14,776 --> 00:42:16,409
When you swaddle a baby,
1001
00:42:16,444 --> 00:42:18,911
you want to bend down
the top of the corner
1002
00:42:18,980 --> 00:42:20,713
like you're making a nice "V."
1003
00:42:20,748 --> 00:42:23,216
Then you put her head,
the top of her head,
1004
00:42:23,251 --> 00:42:26,519
right there, right
there, at the top of that.
1005
00:42:26,621 --> 00:42:27,787
Okay. You got it.
1006
00:42:27,822 --> 00:42:30,523
She trusts you.
1007
00:42:30,558 --> 00:42:32,725
Yeah, support that neck.
1008
00:42:32,794 --> 00:42:34,026
- I got you.
- Oh...
1009
00:42:34,062 --> 00:42:35,461
Oh, little baby.
1010
00:42:36,497 --> 00:42:38,564
Oh, you got it,
1011
00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:39,932
you got it, you got it.
1012
00:42:40,001 --> 00:42:41,567
She's good, she's good.
1013
00:42:41,603 --> 00:42:42,869
All right.
1014
00:42:44,272 --> 00:42:46,305
Let's talk about this music of yours.
1015
00:42:46,341 --> 00:42:49,542
I have some thoughts about
1016
00:42:49,577 --> 00:42:51,377
who you should and
shouldn't be working with.
1017
00:42:51,412 --> 00:42:53,579
And, yeah, you should
do some songs with Shine,
1018
00:42:53,648 --> 00:42:55,715
but not all of 'em.
1019
00:42:55,850 --> 00:42:58,718
Maybe I'll produce you again.
1020
00:42:58,786 --> 00:43:02,021
Turn you into a destroyer of souls.
