MOVING FORWARD IN OUR

RELATIONSHIP.

SHE CAN'T EVEN SHOW ME, YOU

KNOW, HOW TO BE AFFECTIONATE.

YOU FEEL ME?

YEAH, BECAUSE SHE NEVER HAD

THAT MOTHER'S LOVE.

AFFECTIONATE DON'T HAVE

NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR MAMA.

BABY.

I GOT TO GET MY OWN SPOT.

I STILL HAVE TO FIGHT DOWN

THIS STEREOTYPE THAT K.MICHELLE

IS OUTRIGHT CRAZY.

WHEN BUSINESS IS INVOLVED, NO

ONE CARE IF YOU HURT.

EVERYBODY WANT YOU TO SLING.

SHUT UP AND MAKE THE MONEY.

WE NEED TO DO A REAL VIDEO--

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING--

LIKE, A TOTAL CONCEPT,

STORYBOARD, THE WHOLE SHEBANG.

ALL RIGHT, STAND BY.

YO, WHERE ARE YOU?

YOU'RE TWO HOURS LATE.

AND ME AND YOU AIN'T HERE.

WHO IS IT?

WHOSE BABY IS IT?

WHO YOU BEEN [bleep] WITH?

I JUST WANT TO KNOW.

YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW?

I AIN'T BEEN [bleep] NOBODY FOR

YOU AIN'T BEEN [bleep] ME FOR

SIX MONTHS.

FOUR MONTHS.

WE HAVE--[bleep].

FOUR MONTHS.

WE HAVE [bleep], RIGHT?

BUT IF THAT WAS MY BABY, IT'D BE

BIGGER THAN THAT.

BELIEVE IT OR NOT, I'M VERY

SENSUAL WITH MY CUTTY CAT.

AND I KNOW PEOPLE'S NOT GONNA

BELIEVE THIS.

BUT GUESS WHAT?

THEY DON'T HAVE TO.

I DON'T GIVE A [bleep].

YOU KNOW HOW MIMI BROUGHT YOU

THAT 20%--THAT 20% PAPERWORK

THAT SHE BROUGHT YOU?

WHAT THAT GOT TO DO WITH

ANYTHING?

I'M GONNA BRING YOU THE 50%

PAPERWORK.

FOR WHAT?

YOU AIN'T GONNA HAVE NO MONEY

LEFT AFTER YOU MESS WITH ME,

JUST BECAUSE YOU SAID WHAT

YOU SAID.

YOU GOT A FEVER?

DON'T TOUCH ME.

YOU MUST BE HIGH.

NO, JUST BECAUSE YOU SAID

WHAT YOU SAID--WHO'S THE BABY

DADDY?

I'LL BRING IT. GO BRING IT.

WHO'S THE BA--

GO GET WHAT YOU THINK YOU

GONNA GET.

YOU GONNA GET WHAT YOU HAD

BEFORE YOU MET ME.

THAT'S WHAT YOU GONNA GET.

OKAY.

[bleep] WITH ME.

MM-HMM.

DID I HIT IT?

YEAH.

HAVE I SPENT A COUPLE DAYS OVER

THERE?

YEAH.

BUT THAT'S AS FAR AS THAT GOES.

BUT SHE'S NOT TOUCHING NONE OF

MY [bleep].

50%--50% OF WHAT?

OF THIS?

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

I DON'T WANT THAT NO MORE.

EH, SO BUSINESS IS BUSINESS.

THAT'S NOT A TURN-ON, SO I

DON'T WANT IT.

SO WE BACK TO BUSINESS,

RIGHT?

YEAH.

100%.

YEAH, HE'S THE BEST I EVER

HAD.

BUT I DON'T EVEN WANT IT

ANYMORE.

HE JUST...

[sighs]

HE JUST DISGUSTS ME.

[claps]

WHAT YOU TOUCHING ME FOR?

[laughs]

JUST HELPING YOU UP.

I'M NOT SIX MONTHS PREGNANT.

I'M ONLY MAYBE, LIKE, THREE

WEEKS.

IT COULDN'T HAVE BEEN THREE

WEEKS.

WELL, A MONTH AND--A MONTH

AND A HALF--I'M NOT SIX MONTHS.

YOU DON'T GOT TO HELP ME UP.

K.

* LA-LA-LA

WHAT'S UP?

[growls]

HEY.

B. COX HAS PRODUCED

MARY J. BLIGE, MARIAH CAREY,

AND MONICA.

AND NOW I'M HONORED THAT HE

BELIEVES IN ME.

THE FIRST THING ON THE AGENDA IS

TO SHOW ALL THE LOCAL RECORD

EXECS MY TALENT.

LISTEN, THE SHOWCASE IS

VITAL.

THE PEOPLE THAT ARE GONNA BE

THERE ARE GONNA BE WATCHING YOU

UNDER A MICROSCOPE.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT K.MICHELLE

THE ARTIST.

IT'S ABOUT K.MICHELLE THE BRAND.

AND THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF US

PUTTING THIS SHOWCASE TOGETHER

IS TO INTRODUCE THAT...

YEAH.

NEW BRAND TO THE PEOPLE WHO

DON'T KNOW YOU OR HAVE HEARD

THINGS OR--YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

THE WRONG THING.

THE WRONG THINGS.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

[laughs]

WHEN I LEFT JIVE RECORDS, I WAS

VERY HURT.

I HAD NO MONEY TO RECORD A ALBUM

BECAUSE IT WAS SPENT.

I WENT UP TO THE RECORD LABEL,

AND I JUST SCREAMED,

"WHO'S RESPONSIBLE?"

LIKE, I WANTED TO KNOW.

I WANTED THE RECEIPTS.

I WANTED TO KNOW WHO DID IT.

SO AS I START SCREAMING,

EVERYBODY START RUNNING, LOCKING

DOORS, SCARED.

I WAS FIGHTING TO BE HEARD.

SO IT GOT TO BE, "OH, MY GOD,

SHE'S SO AWFUL.

OH, MY GOD, SHE'S CRAZY."

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

MM-HMM.

YOU GOT LEAVE THAT WHERE IT IS.

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

WHEN YOU DO THE SHOWCASE, SHAKE

HANDS, KISS BABIES, GET UP

ONSTAGE, SING YOUR ASS OFF,

YOU KNOW, MAKE EVERYBODY IN

THERE KNOW WHO YOU ARE.

WILL THEY EVER, EVER LOOK

OVER WHAT I'VE DONE OR WHAT I'VE

BEEN THROUGH?

LIKE--

LISTEN, THESE EXECUTIVES WANT

TO WORK WITH YOU.

THEY WANT TO SIGN YOU.

THEY WANT TO GIVE YOU AN

OPPORTUNITY.

THEY SCARED.

THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY

TERRIFIED THAT YOU GONNA RUN UP

IN THEY BUILDING AND GO CRAZY ON

THEM IF IT DON'T GO YOUR WAY.

I GOT TO KILL IT.

I GOT TO BE GREAT, BUT AT THE

SAME TIME, I GOT TO BE HONEST

WITH MY EMOTIONS.

IT'S MAKE IT OR BREAK IT FOR ME

NOW.

THIS IS A SECOND CHANCE,

AND NOBODY EVER GETS A SECOND

CHANCE.

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

[door rattles]

MAMA DUKES.

AFTER I WENT TO HOLLER AT ERICA

TO TELL HER HOW I FELT, YOU

KNOW, I WENT TO GO HOLLER AT

MAMA DUKES.

HOW YOU DOING?

I'M GOOD.

HOW YOU BEEN?

THAT'S THE PERSON

YOU NEED TO GO TO.

SHE GONNA KEEP IT STRAIGHT

WITH YA.

WHAT'S UP, SON?

JUST FINDING ME A LITTLE

SPRIZZOT.

WHAT?

NEW PLACE.

REALLY?

YEP, MADE FOR A BACHELOR.

WHAT'S GOING ON WITH YOU AND

ERICA?

I MEAN, WE GOOD, MAN, BUT I

JUST GOT TO GET UP OUT OF THERE,

MAN.

I GOT TO GO DO MY THING,

YOU KNOW?

I'M TRYING TO, YOU KNOW,

JUST GET SOME UNDERSTAND--

'CAUSE I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW--YOU FEEL

ME--LIKE, YOU IN THE SAME

HOUSE, YOU TALK ALL THAT, YOU

KNOW, THAT LOVEY-DOVEY STUFF,

BUT YOU DON'T--YOU CAN'T--LIKE,

YOU CAN'T DO IT.

YEAH, IT'S NOT IN YOU.

YOU CAN'T EVEN DO IT.

BUT AGAIN, IT GOES BACK TO

SAYING SHE CAN'T SHOW YOU

SOMETHING THAT'S NOT IN HER.

YOU KNOW, ERICA MY BABY MAMA

AND ALL.

I LOVE HER.

I MESS WITH HER, THE WHOLE

100,000 YARDS, MAN, IF THERE

WAS, BUT, YOU KNOW, THAT DON'T

MEAN YOU GOT TO BE WITH

SOMEBODY.

ARE YOU GONNA STILL SEE HER,

OR ARE YOU JUST GONNA START

DATING OTHER WOMEN?

'CAUSE I HAVE TO KNOW.

I'MA TRY TO. I'MA TRY TO.

I KNOW YOU.

I'MA TRY TO.

YEAH, WELL, ENOUGH SPACE,

YOU GONNA RUN IT.

YEAH, YOU GONNA DO SOME STUFF.

NAW, I'M GONNA TRY TO.

YEAH.

YOU FEEL ME?

BUT, YOU KNOW, IF IT DON'T WORK,

YOU KNOW, THAT WAY, I AIN'T

GOT TO MOVE.

SHE AIN'T GOT TO MOVE.

YOU GOT YOUR OWN STUFF.

I GOT MY OWN STUFF.

WELL, YOU KNOW SHE CAME OVER

RECENTLY.

AND I TOLD HER, YOU KNOW,

HONESTLY, "YOU GOT TO STEP YOUR

'A' GAME UP, BECAUSE IF YOU

DON'T, YOU'RE GONNA LOSE HIM,

AND I KNOW MY SON.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

HE'S LIKE ME.

IF WE NOT FEELING IT, WE CUTTING

OUT, 'CAUSE YOU AIN'T GONNA MAKE

ME FEEL IN LOVE."

YEAH, NAW, NAW.

MA, IT AIN'T EVEN NO LOVE.

IT'S JUST LIKE--YOU KNOW WHAT

I'M SAYING--I'D RATHER KICK IT

WITH A MILLION CHICKS AND GET

THAT FROM A MILLION CHICKS

THAN NOT GET THAT FROM ONE.

AS LONG AS HE DOESN'T DRAGS

IN ANOTHER WOMAN LIKE DIAMOND,

MAMA DOWN WITH THAT.

I'D RATHER FOR MY SON TO BE

WITH, SLEEP WITH, TO DO WHOEVER

HE WANTS, THAN FOR ONE WOMAN

NOT TO GIVE HIM THE ONE THING

HE ASKS FOR.

HAVE YOU HIRED MOVERS YET?

NAW, I WAS GONNA ASK YOU TO

DO THAT.

WOW.

[laughs]

I'LL DO IT.

I DON'T DO THAT.

I'LL GET 'EM TOGETHER.

I DON'T DO THAT.

I DON'T DO THAT AT ALL.

OH, I KNOW.

I'M ALWAYS DOING IT.

I DON'T NEVER DO THAT.

WHEN DOES THAT STOP?

WHY, EVERY TIME I GO OUT,

I HAVE TO HEAR ABOUT YOU AND

SOMEBODY?

I AIN'T TAKE HER DOWN.

OKAY, SO THERE'S NO TRUTH

TO IT, IS WHAT YOU'RE SAYING?

NO TRUTH.

I'M GETTING SHORTCHANGED.

I'LL BE THERE WHEN I [bleep] GET

THERE.

HOW MUCH DOES THAT COST, $300,

$400?

A FEW THOUSAND DOLLARS.

I KNOW WHO BABY I HAVE IN MY

STOMACH, AND YOU KNOW TOO.

SO AT THE VIDEO SHOOT,

RASHEEDA WAS TWO HOURS LATE,

NOT ANSWERING THE PHONE,

NOT TEXTING BACK.

AND I'M LIKE, "WHAT THE [bleep]

IS WRONG WITH YOU?"

LIKE, I'M PISSED.

YOU PISSED OFF WITH ME

ABOUT TIME.

IT'S LIKE, SOMETIMES I BE

THINKING YOU DON'T REMEMBER THE

HATS THAT I DO WEAR.

YOU KNOW, LIKE, I AM MAMA.

I AM RUNNING A BUSINESS

WITH YOU.

DON'T FORGET, WHEN YOU HUNGRY,

WHO GOT TO COOK.

BUT YOU GOT TO KEEP

BUSINESS--

EVERY TIME I TURN AROUND

BECAUSE--LET ME SAY THIS--

THERE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE

FOUR DANCERS.

THERE'S TWO DANCERS THERE.

SO I FELT LIKE,

"HEY, I'M GETTING SHORTCHANGED."

I'LL BE THERE WHEN I [bleep]

GET THERE.

THAT'S HOW I WAS FEELING.

THAT'S COOL FOR YOU.

FOR ME, I CAN'T DEAL WITH THAT.

TWO HOURS LATE, HOW MUCH DOES

THAT COST, $300, $400?

A FEW THOUSAND DOLLARS.

YOU ACTING LIKE THIS IS NOT

TAKING FOOD OFF OF YOUR TABLE

AS WELL.

AND I FEEL LIKE, YOU KNOW,

YOU NOT REALLY BEING SMART ABOUT

THE BUSINESS BECAUSE YOU HAVE

A ATTITUDE.

NOW WE HAVE TO CUT INTO THE

BUDGET THAT WAS ALREADY CUT

INTO.

AND THIS IS WHAT I'M THINKING.

WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR

AND WHAT YOU WANT, I THINK

THERE'S A MAJOR LABEL SITUATION.

WHAT?

YOU KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE

A INDEPENDENT ARTIST AND HAVE,

LIKE, A GREAT HIT RECORD THAT'S

GETTING INSTANT RESPONSE?

THAT'S YOUR TICKET FROM BEING

HERE TO, LIKE, HERE.

THAT'S MONEY FOR KIDS DOWN THE

LINE WITH PUBLISHING, WITH

ALWAYS MAKING MONEY.

THAT'S HOW WE EAT A LOT OF

TIMES.

SO WHEN WE GET A MAJOR DEAL,

THAT MEANS WE NO LONGER OWN

THE MASTERS, OKAY.

I DON'T EVEN CARE ABOUT THAT

PART OF IT.

HOW COULD YOU NOT CARE ABOUT

THAT?

YOU'RE A MAN WHO CAN GO GET

A SONG, PUT IT IN A MOVIE,

AND GET $100,000 AND $50,000.

LABELS DO IT ALL THE TIME.

YOU THINK A ARTIST SEE THAT

MONEY?

NEVER.

BUT IT'S LIKE, I DON'T WANT

TO BE MAD ALL THE TIME ABOUT

WHAT I CAN'T DO, AND, "I CAN'T

REALLY MAKE THIS HAPPEN RIGHT

NOW; I GOT TO WAIT."

AND I'M REALLY TO THE POINT--

AND YOU KNOW WHAT?

IF WE COULD JUST WAKE UP AND,

YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST US.

AND YOU NOT--YOU NOT,

"WHAT WE GOT TO DO?

WHAT WE GOT TO DO?

WE GOT TO GO HARD.

WE GOT TO--"

IT'S LIKE SOMETIME I JUST BE

WANTING TO BE LIKE, YO,

YOU GOING FOR SOMETHING,

BUT, LIKE, YOU LOSING PERSONAL

RELATIONSHIP AND CAN'T EVEN GET

A HUG SOMETIME, AND IT'S JUST

ALWAYS JUST--

DON'T THINK I DON'T THINK

ABOUT THE PERSONAL STUFF,

BUT WE RIGHT HERE.

I KNOW THIS.

I--

WE HAVE A BRAND.

WE GONNA BUILD IT.

BOSS BITCH, BOSS CHICK,

THE INDEPENDENT BITCH--

THAT'S WHAT IT IS.

AND THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO ROLL

WITH.

WELL, SCRAPPY'S TALKING ABOUT

MOVING OUT.

AND EVEN THOUGH I AGREED THAT,

YOU KNOW, WE DO NEED TO STAY

SEPARATELY, I'M HAVING

SECOND THOUGHTS.

SO TONIGHT I'M GONNA DO

SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR HIM.

HUH, WHAT?

HOPEFULLY I GET HIM TO CHANGE

HIS MIND.

WHAT'S UP, BABY?

WELL...

WITH THE CHOCOLATE STRAWBERRIES.

FOR YOU.

WOW.

SO YOU TELL ME.

WHERE YOU WANT TO START?

THIS HERE'S

THE [bleep] THING.

[romantic music]

♪

WHY YOU LOOKING AT ME LIKE

THAT?

I REALLY FEEL LIKE

PRINCE AKEEM RIGHT NOW,

YOU KNOW?

I DONE CAME BACK TO AMERICA.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

LIKE, ONCE YOU GET TREATED

LIKE ROYALTY--YOU FEEL ME--

IT'S HARD TO LEAVE.

ERICA AIN'T NEVER HAD ON NO

LINGERIE LIKE THAT, MAN.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

HAD ME UP ON CHILL--

YOU FEEL--READY TO GO.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

SHE WAS TRAINED TO GO RIGHT

THERE--T.T.G.

YOU FEEL ME?

I DON'T KNOW HOW I'M GONNA TELL

SHAWTY.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

IT IS DONE-DEALY.

I FOUND A SPOT.

YOU DID?

YEAH, I FOUND A SPOT.

JUST A COUPLE PAPERS NEED TO BE

SIGNED.

YOU FEEL ME?

SO WHEN ARE YOU SIGNING THEM?

SUNDAY.

OKAY.

THE TIMING COULDN'T HAVE BEEN

ANY WORSE.

IT'S LIKE, "LOOK WHAT I GOT

GOING ON, AND THIS IS WHAT

YOU GONNA HIT ME WITH?

THIS IS THE FIRST THING

YOU SAY?"

WHERE DOES THIS LEAVE US?

IT LEAVE US STILL

WHERE WE AT.

WE WORKING ON IT.

WE GETTING IT RIGHT.

I FEEL LIKE I JUST PUT A LOT

OUT THERE, AND I'M WANTING YOU

TO SOAK IN THE MOMENT AND ENJOY

IT, AND YOU'RE JUST LIKE,

"YEAH, I GOT MY OWN PLACE."

I'M MOVING FORWARD.

YOU FEEL ME?

I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE

I TRUST HIM.

I TRUST THAT HE'S GONNA DO

RIGHT, BECAUSE THIS IS

THE LAST TIME RIGHT HERE,

AND HE KNOWS IT.

THIS IS FINAL.

I WON'T BE DISRESPECTED AGAIN.

DON'T BE LIKE THAT.

YOU FEEL ME?

DON'T BE LIKE THAT.

YOU ALREADY KNOW I'M IN.

YOU--I ALREADY KNOW YOU IN.

BUT I STILL NEED THAT

CONFIRMATION FROM YOU.

OKAY.

I'M WORKING ON YOU, AND YOU

WORKING ON ME...

YEAH.

AND ONLY YOU AND ONLY ME.

YEAH.

YES?

I'M NOT FEENIN' TO SAY,

"YES, YOUR HIGHNESS."

BUT YOU CAN SAY, "YES."

YES.

IF ERICA WAS THAT KIND OF PERSON

THAT COULD GIVE ME THAT, THAT

OOMPH IN LOVE--YOU KNOW WHAT

I'M SAYING--NOT JUST THE "L"

AND THE "E" BUT THE "OV" IN

THE MIDDLE--YOU KNOW WHAT I'M

SAYING--I'D MESS WITH THAT.

I'D STICK AROUND WITH THAT,

BECAUSE ALL THE OTHER QUALITIES

ARE THERE.

TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT:

MY BIG SHOWCASE.

AND I WANTED TO INVITE ALL THE

LADIES, YOU KNOW, JUST SO THEY

CAN GET A GLIMPSE OF K.MICHELLE

THE ARTIST.

WHAT YOU ALL DRINKING?

WHAT IS THAT?

IS THAT WATER?

FOR NOW.

[laughing]

HOW YOU BEEN, GIRL?

OH, SAME OLD THING, WORKING,

WORKING, WORKING, WORKING.

GOT A NEW ALBUM I'M WORKING ON,

GETTING READY TO SHOOT THE

VIDEO--

HI, RASHEEDA.

HELLO.

HI.

ANYWAY.

IT LOOKED LIKE STEVIE WAS AT

A PRE-PARTY, 'CAUSE HE WAS

DRUNK, LOUD, AND CAUSING A DAMN

SCENE.

I KNOW ONE THING: STEVIE PLUS

ALCOHOL EQUALS TROUBLE.

I WANT YOU GUYS TO ABSOLUTE

GIVE A ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR MY

SISTER, MY GIRL, K.MICHELLE.

[cheers and applause]

YEAH.

[whistling]

HELLO.

[audience shouting]

OKAY, SO THIS SONG IS CALLED

BURY MY HEART.

AND I WANTED A SONG THAT COULD

JUST TALK TO WOMEN.

YOU KNOW HOW Y'ALL MEN DO,

HOW Y'ALL TREAT EVERYBODY,

YOU KNOW?

SO I WANTED A SONG THAT

EXPRESSED THE HURT THAT I WENT

THROUGH WITH A BREAKUP.

[applause]

♪ OH, NO

♪ I FOUND SOMETHING I COULD

♪ BELIEVE IN

♪ OH, AFTER A WHILE

SING THAT SONG, BROTHER.

* YOU LET ME DOWN

[cheers and applause]

YEAH, WHOO!

GREAT JOB.

YEAH!

WHOO!

THANK YOU.

I DID EXACTLY WHAT I WAS

SUPPOSED TO DO.

I LEFT THE HATERS WITH THEY

FACE ON THE FLOOR.

I LEFT MY FAMILY EXCITED.

I LEFT MY FRIENDS OVERJOYED.

AND YOU KNOW WHAT?

[claps]

BAM, A STAR WAS BORN.

WAIT, WAIT--MIMI, MIMI,

MIMI, MIMI...

WHERE? WHO?

SO HERE WE ARE HAVING A GOOD

TIME, AND KARLIE DROPS ANOTHER

BOMB AT ANOTHER K.MICHELLE

EVENT.

LIKE, IS THIS BECOMING A PATTERN

OR SOMETHING?

I DON'T WANT TO HEAR THIS

EVERY TIME I GO OUT.

I DON'T.

I WANT TO FEEL SOME TYPE OF

AFFECTION WHEN I SEE MY GIRL.

BUT WHEN I LOOK UP, MIMI'S

GIVING ME SOME KIND OF

STINK EYE.

I DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND WHY.

"GIVE ME A KISS.

YOU AIN'T GO--"

GET THE [bleep] OUT.

THERE'S THE DOOR.

ONE OF THE FORMER EMPLOYEES

OF YOUR LABEL SAID TO ME, "JEFF,

YOU MESSING WITH THAT?

SHE'S CRAZIER THAN A BAG OF

HAMMERS."

MY NEXT QUESTION IS TO YOU,

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO ABOUT

THE BABY?

I'LL SEND YOU BACK TO THE

STRIP CLUB.

AND EVERY TIME SOMETHING

DON'T GO YOUR WAY, THE FIRST

THING YOU SAY IS, "I'M GONNA

SEND YOU BACK TO THE [bleep]

STRIP CLUB."

YOU WOULD NEVER SEND ME BACK TO

THE STRIP CLUB, 'CAUSE I'M NOT

GOING BACK.

* THEY SAY THAT ALL WOUNDS

[laughing]

I JUST THOUGHT HE WAS SOME

RANDOM DUDE JUST TALKING AND

SAYING STUFF, UNTIL MIMI,

OF COURSE, LET ME KNOW THAT

THAT WAS HER BABY'S DADDY.

SO IT ALL CAME TOGETHER THEN,

WHY HE WAS DOING ALL

THE EXTRA.COM.

HE DEFINITELY DON'T WANT TO

GO THERE, REALLY.

WAS HE FOR REAL?

HUH, EVIDENTLY.

NAW, I'M SAYING...

HE WANTS TO CALL ME A BITCH

AND GO OFF.

AND LITTLE DOES HE KNOW, HA,

I'M THE ONLY BITCH.

I'M, LIKE, NUMBER ONE,

THE ONLY ONE.

YOU SEE ME?

THERE IS JUST TOO MUCH GOING

ON FOR ME TONIGHT.

THAT'S WHY I'M LIKE,

"DUDE, JUST"...

YOU SAW WHAT I DID.

"JUST GO."

MIMI, YOU GOT TO STOP.

MIMI, WHEN ARE YOU GONNA GET IT?

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

LIKE, WHEN IS ENOUGH GONNA BE

ENOUGH?

ALL THE TIME WITH SOME

DUMB-ASS [bleep] [bleep].

SHUT THE [bleep] UP.

[laughter]

STEVIE HAD A WHOLE LOT TO SAY

LAST NIGHT WHEN WE GOT HOME.

BUT I WAS SO FED UP, I KICKED

HIS DRUNK ASS OUT THE BEDROOM

AND LOCKED THE DOOR.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT WAS YOUR DEAL

LAST NIGHT.

I HAD A FEW DRINKS LAST

NIGHT, RIGHT?

OKAY, SO WHAT WAS YOUR DEAL

WITH ERICA?

WHY'D YOU GO OFF ON HER?

I--

I JUST FELT LIKE GOING OFF

ON EVERYBODY.

THAT WAS BANANAS.

I KNOW.

I WANT TO TALK TO HER.

I WANT TO APOLOGIZE TO HER--YOU

KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING--'CAUSE

SHE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

I JUST WAS HEATED ABOUT THE

WHOLE SITUATION.

WELL, MIMI'S CONSTANTLY GIVING

ME FEVER THESE DAYS, NOT 'CAUSE

OF ANYTHING THAT I'M DOING--

BECAUSE OF THE THINGS THAT

SHE'S HEARING FROM

THESE "LADIES."

I USE THAT TERM LOOSELY.

HOW MANY TIMES WE GONNA GO

THROUGH THAT "HE SAY, SHE SAY"

AND ALL THAT?

SO THERE'S NO TRUTH TO IT,

IS WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.

NO TRUTH.

NO TRUTH TO IT.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

I'VE SEEN HER IN THE STUDIO

ONE OR TWO TIMES BEFORE.

BUT I DIDN'T [bleep] THAT BROAD.

WHY YOU LOOKING LIKE THAT?

I DIDN'T [bleep] THAT GIRL.

I HEAR YOU, STEVIE,

BUT I DON'T KNOW

ANY WOMAN THAT WAS GONNA GO RUN

AROUND SAYING SHE SLEPT WITH

A DUDE SHE DIDN'T SLEEP WITH;

I DON'T KNOW ONE.

I DON'T RECALL--

WHY WOULD SHE DO THAT?

YOU DON'T RECALL?

I DIDN'T TAKE HER DOWN.

YOU DON'T RECALL?

I DIDN'T TAKE HER DOWN.

YOU'RE--

I DIDN'T TAKE HER DOWN.

OKAY, I DON'T BELIEVE YOU.

SHE AIN'T EVEN ON THAT LEVEL.

SHE DON'T HAVE TO BE FOR YOU

TO TAKE HER DOWN.

I DIDN'T [bleep] HER.

I DON'T REMEMBER.

CAN WE JUST GET PAST ALL OF THIS

BULL[bleep]?

CAN WE GET PAST IT?

YES.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

YOU MAKE YOUR MONEY.

I'M NOT STOPPING NO CHECKS

COMING IN.

MAKE YOUR MONEY.

BUT WHY, EVERY TIME I GO OUT,

I HAVE TO HEAR ABOUT YOU AND

SOMEBODY?

I DON'T ALWAYS WANT ANOTHER

FEMALE COMING IN BETWEEN US AND

OUR RELATIONSHIP.

IF THEY'RE YOUR ARTIST OR YOU

SUPPOSED TO BE WORKING WITH

THESE GIRLS, CHECK 'EM.

I GOT 'EM.

I'LL CHECK 'EM.

THEY NOT RUNNING THIS--

YOU RUNNING--

JOSELINE, NOBODY.

NONE OF THEM BITCHES IS RUNNING

[bleep].

YEAH, THAT'S YOUR THING,

BABY.

YOU RUNNING [bleep].

YOU WON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT

ANY OF THAT AGAIN.

YOU GOT TO STOP THE

BULL[bleep], 'CAUSE I CAN'T TAKE

TOO MUCH MORE.

I CAN'T.

[knocking]

HEY.

HI, BROTHER.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

REUBEN IS MY NEIGHBOR AND MY

BEST FRIEND.

AND AFTER WHAT HAPPENED AT THE

STUDIO WITH STEVIE, I JUST

NEEDED A FRIENDLY SHOULDER TO

CRY ON.

WHY YOU CRYING?

I'M PREGNANT.

YOU'RE WHAT?

YOU KNOW WHEN ME AND I--

STEVIE MET, IT WAS JUST

A CONNECTION, THAT IT HAPPENED

SO FAST, AND...

ARE YOU IN LOVE WITH HIM?

I DO LOVE HIM.

I LOVE HIM.

EVEN IF HE IS A BAD MAN, HE GAVE

ME A CHANCE.

HE GAVE ME OPPORTUNITY.

AT THE END OF THE DAY,

I LOVE HIM.

AND THAT'S JUST WHAT IT IS.

MY THING IS, WITH HIM,

I ALWAYS GO BACK WITH.

NO MATTER HOW MAD I AM AT HIM,

I ALWAYS GO BACK TO, LIKE,

"DAMN, IF IT WASN'T FOR STEVIE,

I'D STILL BE STRIPPING."

I GREW UP POOR.

I WAS ONE OF SIX KIDS.

MY MOM WAS ON DRUGS FOR 25

YEARS.

I RAN AWAY FROM HOME WHEN I WAS

12 YEARS OLD.

AND I LEARNED HOW TO SURVIVE.

I HATED THOSE MEN THAT TOOK CARE

OF ME.

I'M JUST GLAD THAT I ENDED UP IN

THE STRIP CLUB AND NOT DEAD.

I JUST HAD TO TAKE CARE OF

MYSELF.

HEY, YOU KNOW, I DON'T--

THAT WAS THE ONLY WAY I KNEW

HOW TO GET SOME FAST MONEY.

SO I'M JUST LIKE--IF SOMEBODY

CHANGED YOUR LIFE IN FOUR OR

FIVE MONTHS, WHAT YOU GONNA DO?

YOU GONNA BE IN LOVE TOO.

I DON'T CARE WHAT NOBODY SAYS,

WHETHER YOU'RE HAVING SEX WITH

THAT PERSON OR NOT.

AND NINE TIMES OUT OF TEN, YOU

WILL BE HAVING SEX WITH THAT

PERSON, FOR THAT PERSON'S

CHANGED YOUR LIFE SO FAST.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

WHY DID YOU KEEP THIS

SUCH A SECRET?

I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW ABOUT THIS.

STEVIE USED TO ALWAYS TELL

ME, "YOU TELL PEOPLE THAT WE'RE

HAVING SEX, YOUR CAREER'S OVER."

IF I TELL ANYONE, HE'S NOT GONNA

WORK WITH ME ANYMORE.

DO I STAY TRUE TO MYSELF AND

JUST GO AHEAD AND TELL WHAT'S

GOING ON?

OR DO I CHOOSE MY CAREER AND

JUST KEEP QUIET?

I JUST CANNOT BELIEVE THIS.

AND I TOLD YOU HOW HE WAS,

AND THEN ON TOP OF THAT, DIDN'T

YOU TELL ME THAT MIMI ALSO HAS

A CHILD BY HIM?

YOU NEED TO SIT DOWN, AND YOU

NEED TO TALK TO MIMI.

YOU NEED TO TALK TO STEVIE ABOUT

THE SITUATION 'CAUSE IT'S

AFFECTING YOU.

THEY'RE LIVING THEIR LIVES.

MIMI PROBABLY DON'T EVEN KNOW

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON.

STEVIE OUT HERE JUST DOING HIM.

YOU'RE HURTING RIGHT NOW.

MY NEXT QUESTION IS TO YOU, WHAT

ARE YOU GONNA DO ABOUT THE BABY?

* SAY YOU WANT TO GIVE

♪ BUT ALL YOU DO IS TAKE

♪ TAKE AWAY JOY

♪ LEAVING ME IN PAIN

♪ I DON'T WANT TO DROWN ♪

♪ IN YOUR STORM

I'M JUST GONNA HAVE TO DO

WHAT I HAVE TO DO.

* WELL, I'VE GIVEN ALL ♪

♪ I CAN GIVE

♪ AND IT SEE THAT

♪ IT'S NOT WORKING ♪

♪ AND I KNEW THAT THIS...

BITCH?

YES, "BITCH."

THAT'S WHAT HE CALLED ME.

I WANT TO PUT THEM PAWS ON.

YOU DIG THAT?

THIS GIRL REALLY IS A PIECE

OF WORK.

IF YOU KEEP ON DOING

SOMETHING TO ME, I'MA SEE YOU

FOR IT.

HOW YOU DOING SO FAR?

PRETTY GOOD?

I'M GETTING THERE.

OH, WOW.

I'M GETTING THERE.

YOU GOT A LITTLE WAYS TO GO.

I LOVE SCRAPPY.

AND WE'VE BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH.

WE'RE A UNIT.

WE'RE A FAMILY UNIT.

BUT WITH HIM MOVING OUT, WE'RE

GONNA BE TOGETHER BECAUSE WE

WANT TO BE TOGETHER, NOT BECAUSE

WE WERE PUT IN THAT SITUATION.

I WAS KIND OF KEEPING SOMETHING

FROM YOU.

I DIDN'T KNOW HOW YOU WAS GONNA

TAKE IT.

WHAT?

BUT I HAD A LITTLE INCIDENT.

TAKE YOUR FRIENDS WITH YOU.

[laughing]

THAT'S YOUR FRIEND.

TAKE HIM WITH YOU.

THAT'S YOUR COUSIN, OPIE.

[laughing]

SHUT UP, FOOL.

BUT WHEN I HAD MET UP WITH THE

GIRLS...

MM-HMM.

I KIND OF HAD A RUDE

INTRODUCTION, I GUESS, TO

STEVIE J.

HEARD A LOT ABOUT HIM.

OH, REALLY?

YEAH.

ANYHOO, WE AT THE TABLE,

TALKING.

AND HIS BABY MAMA SITTING NEXT

TO ME.

AND HE'S TRYING TO GET HER TO

GIVE HIM A KISS.

SHE'S JUST LIKE,

"I'M COOL, YOU KNOW?

I'LL TALK TO YOU LATER."

SHE WOULDN'T GIVE HIM NO

KISS?

NO.

SHE WOULDN'T.

WHY SHE DIDN'T GIVE HIM NO

KISS?

I DON'T KNOW.

I'M JUST--I'M SITTING THERE

LOOKING.

AND HE'S BEING, LIKE, AGGRESSIVE

WITH IT, LIKE, "YO, MA, GIVE ME

KISS."

SO SHE DIDN'T GIVE HIM A KISS.

HE WALKS OFF AND WHATNOT.

I'M LIKE, "YO, MA, GIVE ME

KISS."

SO I GUESS HE WAS OFFENDED.

YOU KNOW, HE HEARD ME MOCKING

HIM.

HE COMES TRUCKING ON ALONG BACK

TO THE TABLE.

AND HE WAS LIKE, "WHAT THE

[bleep] YOU SAY?"

WHOA.

YOU KNOW ME--SLOW-MOTION,

LIKE, "WHAT?"

WHAT THE [bleep]?

EXACTLY WHAT YOU SAID.

HE WAS LIKE, "NO, BITCH, WHAT

THE [bleep] DID YOU SAY?"

"BITCH"?

YES, "BITCH."

WOW.

MM-HMM, THAT'S WHAT HE CALLED

ME.

DID HE KNOW YOU PRIOR TO

THEN?

NO.

I DON'T KNOW HIM.

SO HE JUST COME DOWN HERE

AND JUST THINK IT'S COOL

TO, YOU KNOW, NOT KNOW A CHICK--

[bleep] CAN GET KILLED LIKE

THAT--YOU FEEL ME?

'CAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW.

THIS IS LIKE SOMEBODY WALKING UP

TO YOUR MAMA, AND YOU CUSS OUT.

NEXT THING YOU KNOW,

YOUR DONG PIECE IS ON

THE GROUND SOMEWHERE.

YOU FEEL ME?

I THINK I DESERVE AN APOLOGY,

LIKE, FOR REAL.

HE NEEDS TO APOLOGIZE TO ME.

OH, NO, WE GONNA GET AN

APOLOGY.

WE GONNA GET MORE THAN AN

APOLOGY.

LIKE, I WANT TO ROUGH HIM UP,

THOUGH--YOU FEEL ME?

I WANT TO PUT THEM PAWS ON HIM.

YOU DIG THAT?

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

JUST FOR--YOU KNOW WHAT

I'M SAYING--GETTING OUT OF LINE,

TALKING ABOUT "BITCH," AND

YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO YOU

TALKING TO.

I CAN'T EVEN LET THAT SLIDE.

THAT'S WHERE I'M AT WITH IT.

I DONE PICKED UP TOO MANY

BOXES--YOU FEEL ME?

I'M MAD.

I'M AT THAT SUCKER [bleep]--

YOU FEEL ME--ON EVERYTHING.

I'M ON PROBATION, MAN.

AIN'T TRYING TO GET INTO

NO DRAMA, NO ALTERCATIONS,

BUT HOMEBOY, MR. STEVIE,

WHOEVER HE IS, DEFINITELY GONNA

GET A VISIT FROM YOUR BOY.

I'M GONNA BE VERY POLITICALLY

HOOD-CORRECT ABOUT IT WHEN I

CHECK HIM, WHEN I CHECK HIS

TALK.

"POLITICALLY HOOD-CORRECT"?

POLITICALLY HOOD-CORRECT.

YOU FEEL ME--REAL SPIFF.

ALL RIGHT.

AFTER MY SHOWCASE, I WENT TO

GO VISIT ARIANE.

THAT'S MY GIRL, AND I KNOW SHE'S

GONNA KEEP IT REAL WITH ME.

HEY.

[laughing]

I WANTED TO GET HER TRUE OPINION

ON THE SHOWCASE.

I THINK YOU WERE AMAZING.

I SHOULD HAVE DROPPED IT

A LITTLE BIT, LIKE--

NO, I SAID--

REALLY?

"HMM, MAMA UP THERE SINGING

FOR HER LIFE, HEY, NOW."

[laughing and clapping]

GIRL, HERE'S FOR MY LIFE.

YOU DID GOOD.

I WAS PROUD OF YOU.

NO, BUT, OUT OF ALL THE GOOD

STUFF...

MM-HMM.

I WANTED TO GIVE YOU THE

REAL "T" ON A SITUATION THAT'S

BOTHERING ME.

WITH WHO?

KARLIE.

SHE WALKS UP TO B. COX,

MY PRODUCER, AND SAY,

"YOU KNOW, I WANT TO WORK WITH

YOU OR WHATEVER, BUT YOU MESSING

WITH THE WRONG ARTIST."

YOU CAME INTO MY EVENT WITH MY

PEOPLE, AND YOU BE ON SOME

BULLCRAP LIKE THAT?

YOU TOLD MY PRODUCER THAT HE

SIGNED THE WRONG ARTIST.

HONEY, LAST TIME I CHECKED,

PEOPLE AIN'T THROWING OUT RECORD

DEALS TO 50-YEAR-OLD ASPIRING

ARTISTS WITHOUT EVEN A WIKIPEDIA

PAGE.

YOU 50.

YOU NEED TO BE PREPARING FOR

RETIREMENT OR SOMETHING.

BUT YOU WORRIED ABOUT ME.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND KARLIE

AT ALL.

LIKE, IT WAS, LIKE, TO HURT YOUR

FEELINGS, TO HURT MIMI'S

FEELINGS.

IT WAS JUST--

MIMI?

[clicks tongue]

SOME GIRL WHO USED TO [bleep]

WITH STEVIE I GUESS--I DON'T

KNOW--SHE WAS THERE.

AND SHE KIND OF, LIKE, POINTED

IT OUT.

SO I'M STILL SITTING IN THE

MIDDLE LIKE, "WHAT THE [bleep]

IS WRONG WITH THIS GIRL?"

WHAT DID SHE SAY TO MIMI?

I DON'T REMEMBER IT VERBATIM,

BUT I JUST KNOW IT WAS TO THE

POINT WHERE IT PISSED MIMI OFF.

LIKE, IT GOT TO HER.

I WANT MIMI TO GET OUT AND

HAVE A GOOD TIME.

BUT WHEN YOU DISRESPECT FAMILY,

FRIENDS, BUSINESS, ANY OF THAT--

I FELT LIKE IT WAS VERY

DISRESPECTFUL OF HER.

IT IS DISRESPECTFUL.

VERY.

I HOPE SOMEBODY GIVE HER SOME

KIND OF JOB, THE NATIONAL

ENQUIRER, OR SOMEBODY

GIVE HER A CHECK, BECAUSE

SHE'S IN EVERYBODY'S BUSINESS

BUT HER OWN.

AND SHE GOT ENOUGH BUSINESS.

SHE WALKING AROUND HERE WITH A

DEFLATED ASS CHEEK.

SHE SHOULD DEAL WITH THAT FIRST.

THIS GIRL REALLY IS A PIECE

OF WORK.

THAT GIRL CAME TO BE MESSY,

MESSY, MESSY.

AT THE END, THOUGH--

HER FACE IS MESSY.

HER CLOTHES ARE MESSY.

HER JEWELRY IS MESSY.

HER ATTITUDE IS MESSY.

HER ASS IS LOPSIDED AND MESSY.

WHAT YOU NOT GONNA DO IS BRING

ALL THAT [bleep] AROUND ME.

IF YOU KEEP ON DOING SOMETHING

TO ME, I'MA SEE YOU FOR IT.

AND THAT'S ME.

YOU'RE A STRIPPER AND NOW YOU

PREGNANT BY HIM?

YES.

DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHO YOU

PREGNANT BY?

>> I'LL SEND YOU BACK TO THE

STRIP CLUB.

YOU WOULD NEVER SEND ME BACK

TO THE STRIP CLUB, 'CAUSE I'M

NOT GOING BACK.

HI.

HOW ARE YOU?

I'M GREAT.

GOOD TO SEE YOU.

AT MY SHOWCASE, I FELT LIKE

I DID AMAZING, BUT SINGING GOOD

IS ONLY HALF THE BATTLE.

EVERYBODY WAS EXCITED, YOU KNOW?

I DID GOOD.

AND NOW I'M JUST LIKE,

"WHAT'S GOING ON?

WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO MOVE

FORWARD?"

WERE THERE A LOT OF PEOPLE

THERE?

UH-HUH, BUT THEY WEREN'T

THE PEOPLE THAT COULD REALLY

MAKE NO MOVES.

THEY WEREN'T LIKE THE PEOPLE

THAT YOU GET TO.

JEFF ROBINSON IS THE GO-TO GUY

WHEN YOU WANT TO MAKE IT AND YOU

WANT YOUR BRAND TO BE BUILT.

HE'S RESPONSIBLE FOR

ALICIA KEYS, TYRESE, LOT OF BIG

ACTS IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY.

HE'S ALSO KNOWN FOR BUILDING NEW

ARTISTS.

THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I NEED.

I NEED MANAGEMENT.

I NEED MY SITUATION RIGHT.

WELL, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU

FIRST CAME TO MY OFFICE, ONE OF

THE FORMER EMPLOYEES OF YOUR

LABEL SAID TO ME, "JEFF, YOU

MESSING WITH THAT?

SHE'S CRAZIER THAN A BAG OF

HAMMERS, YOU KNOW?"

WELL, DO HE STILL GOT A JOB?

THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS

THAT HE MAY GET ANOTHER JOB,

BUT YOU MAY NOT GET ANOTHER

RECORD DEAL.

THAT RECORD DEAL THAT YOU HAD

WAS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU TO

BUILD SOMETHING.

YEAH.

TO THE PUBLIC AT LARGE AND

YOUR FAN BASE AND YOUR FAMILY AT

HOME, IT LOOKS LIKE YOU FAILED.

AND IT'S VERY UNFAIR.

THE ONLY REASON I STILL CAN EAT

AND I STILL BOOK SHOWS EVEN

WITHOUT A DEAL IS BECAUSE I'M

ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS UNKNOWN

PEOPLE.

PEOPLE WALK AROUND SINGING MY

SONGS AND BE SINGING IT IN MY

FACE AND DON'T EVEN KNOW IT'S

ME.

WELL, BOOKING SHOWS IS NICE,

BUT THAT'LL DRY UP.

AND THEN YOU'LL BE THAT GIRL

WHO USED TO BE SOMEBODY THAT'S

TRYING TO GET IN THE CLUB,

THAT'S TRYING TO GET IN THE VIP

SECTION.

THEY'RE LIKE, "YO, WASN'T THAT

SUCH-AND-SUCH?"

YOU DON'T WANT TO BE THAT GIRL.

I MESSED UP A LOT IN MY LAST

RECORD DEAL.

I SHOULD HAVE JUST KEPT MY

HOT POCKET CLOSED AND JUST SANG.

SITTING THERE WITH JEFF, I

REALIZED AT THAT MOMENT HOW HIGH

THE STAKES WERE FOR ME AND MY

CAREER.

I WANT YOU TO CRY.

I WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND WHY IT

HAPPENED AND MAKE SURE IT NEVER

HAPPENS AGAIN, BECAUSE YOU LEARN

FROM IT.

ONLY A CRAZY MAN MAKES THE SAME

MISTAKE TWICE.

WELL, I NEED HELP.

I NEED--I NEED YOU TO MANAGE ME.

I KNOW I NEED SOMEBODY THAT'S

RESPECTED.

I KNOW I NEED SOMEBODY THAT

KNOWS WHAT TO DO.

AND I KNOW I NEED HELP.

YOU CAN ALWAYS CALL UPON ME

FOR ADVICE, BUT I GOT TO KEEP IT

100% REAL.

IT'S NOT PROMISED TO YOU.

IF WE DECIDE TO WORK TOGETHER,

YOU GOT TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY

FOR YOURSELF, AND YOU GOT TO

TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR

BRAND.

REUBEN IS RIGHT.

TIME TO SPEAK OUT.

I'M TIRED OF BEING THE OTHER

WOMAN WHILE MIMI AND STEVIE IS

JUST LIVING THIS REGULAR LIFE

LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED.

IF MIMI WANTS TO GET INVOLVED IN

HIS BUSINESS, I'LL GET HER

INVOLVED.

I'M GONNA GET STRAIGHT TO THE

POINT.

YOU KNOW--YOU AND I KNOW THAT

WHEN I FIRST MET HIM BACK IN

DECEMBER, HE DIDN'T COME HOME

FOR THREE MONTHS.

SO I'M GONNA JUST TELL YOU LIKE

THIS: I KNOW WHO BABY I HAVE IN

MY STOMACH, AND YOU KNOW TOO.

I'M DISGUSTED.

SHE'S TALKING ALL THIS [bleep]

TO ME.

I'M LIKE, "OKAY, JOSELINE, IF

YOU THINK I'M GONNA LOSE MY COOL

'CAUSE YOU TELL ME YOU'RE

PREGNANT BY STEVIE, IT'S NOT

GONNA HAPPEN.

BABY, YOU'RE NOT WORTH IT."

JOSELINE, I KNOW WHAT I'M

DEALING WITH...

OH.

WHEN IT COMES TO STEVIE.

I'M NOT A [bleep] FOOL.

I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT I GOT.

AS FAR AS YOU ARE CONCERNED,

YOU'RE A STRIPPER WHO'S TRYING

TO GET ON--

I WAS A STRIPPER.

AND I'M NOT TRYING TO GET--

I WAS A STRIPPER.

I HAVEN'T BEEN TO THE--

YOU [bleep] AROUND AND

GOT [bleep] EVERY WHICH WAY

FROM SUNDAY.

NOW YOU PREGNANT BY HIM?

YES.

DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHO YOU

PREGNANT BY?

I'M PREGNANT BY YOUR MAN.

I GET IT.

YOU WANT TO BE A STAR.

I GET IT.

YOU GET PREGNANT AND THIS, THAT,

AND--UH, BITCH, PLEASE.

THIS [bleep] PULLED YOU OUT OF

THE STRIP CLUB [bleep] IN VIP.

AT LEAST I KNOW WHAT I'M

DEALING WITH.

AND I'M GETTING MYSELF--

I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE

DEALING WITH TOO, SWEETHEART.

FOUR MONTHS. FOUR MONTHS.

THIS IS HIM, RIGHT HERE.

TRUST AND BELIEVE.

THIS IS HIM, RIGHT HERE,

TEXTING ME, SEE?

WHY IS HE TEXTING ME WHILE WE

TALKING?

AS WE'RE HAVING OUR

CONVERSATION, SHE SAYS THAT

HE'S SENDING HER TEXT MESSAGES.

SO I SAID, "WELL, TELL HIM TO

COME UP HERE."

I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY I WAS AT

THIS "MEETING" BY MYSELF ANYWAY.

OH, THERE HE GO.

WHAT YOU LETTING HER KNOW?

WHAT'S GOING ON?

SHE TELLS ME SHE'S PREGNANT

BY YOU.

THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID?

THAT'S WHO I BE [bleep]

EVERY DAY.

I DON'T KNOW.

THIS IS WHO I [bleep]

EVERY DAY.

IT IS HIS BABY.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THAT?

I DON'T KNOW ANY MAN IN THEY

RIGHT [bleep] MIND WHO'S GONNA

CARRY AROUND THE NEXT BITCH'S

PREGNANCY TEST IN THEIR POCKET.

WHO DOES THAT?

SO WHEN'S THE LAST TIME YOU ALL

[bleep]?

ABOUT FIVE DAYS AGO.

A MONTH AGO.

ABOUT FIVE DAYS.

FIVE DAYS AGO?

FIVE DAYS AGO.

ABOUT A MONTH AGO.

I'M NOT GONNA ARGUE WITH HIM

ABOUT--

SO IF YOU [bleep] HER A MONTH

AGO, IT VERY WELL COULD BE YOUR

BABY, IF SHE'S PREGNANT, IF YOU

[bleep] A MONTH AGO.

I'M NOT ARGUING WITH YOU

ABOUT HOW I MADE--THE LAST TIME

I [bleep].

MAYBE.

THAT IS NOT EVEN THE CASE.

SO NOW IT'S "MAYBE."

I MEAN, IT'S BEEN A MONTH,

SO, YOU KNOW...

IT'S BEEN A MONTH, SO MAYBE.

THE PART THAT JUST REALLY

DISGUSTS ME IS, YOU'RE SLOPPY

AS [bleep].

YOU [bleep] THIS BITCH [bleep],

AND SHE COULD POTENTIALLY BE

PREGNANT BY YOU?

AND THEN YOU WANT TO COME HOME

AND LAY DOWN WITH ME?

REALLY?

THAT'S WHERE--

YOU THINK IT'S [bleep] CUTE.

THAT'S WHERE WE AT?

OBVIOUSLY, SHE'S PREGNANT.

IS SHE PREGNANT?

YOU GOT THE TEST IN YOUR

HAND.

DON'T [bleep] PLAY STUPID.

YOU GOT THE TEST IN YOUR

HAND; YOU CARRYING

THE [bleep] THING AROUND.

HEY, WATCH YOUR MOUTH.

DON'T PLAY STUPID, STUPID.

JOSELINE--

NAW, YOU CHILL.

YO, YOU CHILL.

GET YOUR HAND OUT OF MY FACE.

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BABY.

GET YOUR HAND OUT OF MY FACE.

GET YOUR [bleep] OUT OF MY FACE.

WHERE YOU GOING, MIMI?

COME HERE, MA.

GOOD LUCK.

TALK TO YOUR BITCH, AND HAVE A

GOOD NIGHT.

I'M GLAD THAT MIMI LEFT,

'CAUSE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A

CONVERSATION THAT JOSELINE AND I

HAD BEFORE MIMI EVEN CAME INTO

THE PICTURE.

SO I'M GLAD SHE LEFT, 'CAUSE

I HAD TO HANDLE MY BUSINESS.

I GOT PAPERS ON YOU FOR THE REST

OF YOUR LIFE.

WHAT?

I'LL SEND YOU BACK TO THE

STRIP CLUB.

AH, [bleep], YOU SEND

YOURSELF BACK TO GO PIMPING.

BITCH.

DON'T--DON'T [bleep] PLAY

WITH ME.

WHY YOU [bleep] WITH ME?

GO GET YOUR BITCH.

GET YOUR BITCH.

OR WHAT?

I DON'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU

ANYMORE.

WHAT WE HAVE IS OVER.

BYE.

YOU KNOW WHAT YOU TELL ME?

"I GAVE YOU YOUR LIFE."

OKAY, IF YOU GAVE ME MY LIFE,

IF YOU GONNA TAKE IT BACK EVERY

CHANCE YOU GET, I DON'T NEED YOU

TO GIVE ME NO [bleep] LIFE.

JOSELINE.

WHY IS YOU COMING BACK HERE

AND TALKING TO ME?

WHY?

I DON'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU.

I DON'T GIVE A [bleep]

WHETHER YOU WANT TO TALK OR NOT.

GET YOUR [bleep] HANDS OUT

OF MY--AND I'M PREGNANT.

YOU'RE FINISHED.

FOR REAL?

I'M FINISHED?

WHAT, YOU THREATENING ME NOW?

THIS IS ALL YOU DO.

I GOT PAPERWORK ON YOU.

"DON'T SAY THIS,

OR THIS IS WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN."

I'M TIRED OF FOLLOWING BY YOUR

RULES.

I DON'T PUT NO RULES ON YOU.

I'M TIRED OF YOU

CONTROLLING ME.

THAT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN NO MORE.

CONTROL YOU?

HOW DO I CONTROL YOU?

STEVIE, PLEASE.

HE TOLD ME THAT IF IT WASN'T HIS

WAY, I WASN'T GONNA BE IN THE

INDUSTRY.

WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO BELIEVE?

I WAS ONLY 24.

AND NOW I KNOW BETTER.

SO IF STEVIE WANTS TO [bleep]

WITH ME, WE JUST CAN'T WORK

TOGETHER.

ALL RIGHT.

SO HOW WE GONNA HANDLE OUR

BUSINESS?

YOU KNOW YOU STILL GOT BUSINESS

WITH ME, RIGHT?

WE GONNA HANDLE IT WHEN WE

GOT TO HANDLE IT.

WHAT YOU MEAN?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN.

WHAT I JUST SAID.

HUH?

YOU TELLING ME [bleep] WITH ME?

THAT'S WHAT YOU TELLING ME?

FOR WHAT I DID FOR YOU, YOU

TELLING ME--

YOU AIN'T DO NOTHING FOR ME,

BECAUSE EVERY TIME YOU GOT

A CHANCE, YOU--

I AIN'T DO NOTHING FOR YOU?

NOTHING.

I GAVE YOU ANOTHER LIFE.

ALL YOU DO IS TELL ME, WHEN

I DON'T DO WHAT YOU SAY,

"OH, I'M GONNA SEND YOU BACK TO

THE STRIP CLUB."

YOU KNOW WHAT YOU TELL ME?

"I GAVE YOU YOUR LIFE."

OKAY, IF YOU GAVE ME MY LIFE,

IF YOU GONNA TAKE IT BACK EVERY

CHANCE YOU GET, I DON'T NEED YOU

TO GIVE ME NO [bleep] LIFE.

YOU SAY THAT [bleep] EVERY TIME

YOU GET MAD.

JOSELINE, STOP.

AND EVERY TIME SOMETHING

DON'T GO YOUR WAY, THE FIRST

THING YOU SAY IS, "I'M GONNA

SEND YOU BACK TO THE [bleep]

STRIP CLUB."

YOU WILL NEVER SEND ME BACK

TO THE STRIP CLUB, 'CAUSE I'M

NOT GOING BACK.

AND I DON'T WANT YOU TO GO

BACK.

I'M NOT--YES, YOU DO.

NO, I DON'T.

YES, YOU DO, BECAUSE YOU

LIKE TO TALK TO BITCHES ANY TYPE

OF WAY.

AND YOU LIKE DOGGING BITCHES,

BUT I'M NOT GONNA LET YOU DO ME

LIKE THAT.

I DOGGED YOU OUT?

YES, YOU DON'T REMEMBER WHAT

YOU TELL ME.

YOU DON'T REMEMBER WHAT YOU DO.

EVERYTHING THAT YOU DO IS A

[bleep] LIE.

YOU ARE A [bleep] PIECE OF

[bleep].

WATCH YOUR MOUTH.

I DON'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU

NO MORE.

BE A LADY.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

BE A LADY.

I DON'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU

NO MORE.

I'M DONE TALKING TO YOU.

YOU'LL NEVER BE FINISHED

TALKING TO ME.

UNDERSTAND THAT.

AND WATCH HOW YOU SPEAK TO ME,

JOSELINE.

YOU LOOK NICE, BY THE WAY.

ON THE NEXT LOVE & HIP-HOP:

ATLANTA...

YOU GOT TO KEEP YOUR [bleep]

[bleep] IN YOUR PANTS.

I'M SORRY.

I MADE A MISTAKE.

DID YOU TELL HER THAT?

I DIDN'T [bleep] NOBODY AND

GET 'EM PREGNANT; YOU DID.

YOU WANT A [bleep] SLUT-ASS

BITCH, YOU GO DO THAT.

HAVE YOU EVER REALLY LOVED

ME, STEVIE?

DO YOU LOVE ME?

HOW ARE THINGS GOING WITH YOU

AND SCRAP?

WE'RE MOVING FORWARD.

AND WE'RE HAPPY.

PUT SOME OF THIS ON ME,

PLEASE?

REALLY?

YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO.

IT'S ME WORKING ON YOU.

YOU WORKING ON ME.

AND IN THE END, I'M GONNA HAVE

A RING.

ERICA GOT INTO IT WITH A DUDE

NAMED STEVIE J.

GO AT HIM.

MAKE HIM ANSWER.

CHECK HIM.

THAT'S HIM, RIGHT THERE.

IF I CUSSED YOUR [bleep] OUT

RIGHT NOW--IF I CUSSED--

WELL, WAIT A MINUTE.

WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

WHO ARE YOU?

GET IN THE CAR.

BITCH, LEAVE!

COME HERE!

SCRAPPY!

DON'T DO IT!

HEY, SCRAP--

[bleep].
