ANNOUNCER: We now return to Thugnificent:

Rags to Bitches.

[?]

The story of Thugnificent begins here...

In the projects of Terra-Belle, Georgia,

one of the poorest and toughest towns in the country.

Terra-Belle leads Georgia in homicides, infant mortality,

AIDS, and everything else bad.

Yeah, you know, in Latin they say

"terra belle" means "beautiful earth. "

But in Georgia, Terra-Belle means,

"fucked-up place to live. "

Terrible Terra-Belle.

Yes, sir. That's our name for it.

Now, this right here is where I grew up.

I seen everything, man. Everything.

I seen a nigga get killed right over there, you know?

They beat him up, stomped him, shot the dude,

stomped the nigga again,

and then I seen 'em take a dump on the dude.

I swear to God, man, they actually, like,

shot a deuce on this nigga, man.

You know what I'm saying? They shat on the nigga, man.

And I started thinking to myself:

"Man...

what did he do to make them niggas that mad?"

Now, right over here,

that's where the police station used to be.

They must not have liked that location,

'cause, uh, they up and left.

So where's the new police station?

What? Nigga, there was no more police station after that.

Pigs got the fuck up outta here.

That's when they put

this big-ass fence up around the city.

[SCREAMS]

So, what was it like growing up

in a place like this?

It was hard, you know?

A lot of people don't know

that places like this even exist in America.

They don't know how dirty the South really gets.

[KIDS LAUGH] Mm-hm.

GIRL: Hey. That's a damn shame.

But that's real shit, though, nigga.

You got naked kids.

Parents gotta choose between food and clothes

for their kids, shorty.

Or for themselves.

It's real out here, nigga.

That's right, y'all.

Put your hands up, white folks,

'cause Thugnificent's in the motherfucking...

Man, I wanna go over there,

but I don't wanna dick ride, you know?

Would that be dick riding? You think? To go over there?

What it do, Woodcrest? Ha-ha.

What's 'hood in the Wood, white folks?

I just wanna say we happy to be out here

in our new crib in Woodcrest...

A'ight. What if I just go over there

and give him a pound, and be like:

"What up, Thugnificent?"

Like, not really all on his sack or nothing? Yeah.

THUGNIFICENT: I'm here for everybody.

Get back here, Riley.

Ah, come on, Granddad. Oh, no.

I'll be right...

THUGNIFICENT: My house is your house. All is yours.

I don't want either of you going near that house. You hear me?

THUGNIFICENT: I might buy everything.

Know what? Uh,

I don't wanna dick ride,

so I'm gonna just, uh,

go back to the house.

THUGNIFICENT: ... our new crib in Woodcrest,

with all these trees and white bitches and lemonade,

and bagels and shit.

But you know how we do.

We bring the 'hood with us, right here.

Now let's make it rain.

GIRL: Yeah. This is fantastic.

Ha-ha. Whoo. That's right, nigga.

I'm about to do it big in Woodcrest.

Right across, I'm gonna put a club.

Uh, next door is gonna be my detail shop.

Nigga, I'm about to clear all this shit out. Ha-ha.

GIRL: Welcome to the neighborhood.

Huh? That's right, y'all.

Thugnificent bringing the 'hood

to this very street. Eh-heh.

The ghetto is here, y'all. Heh.

Ain't this a bitch?

Who in the hell left the gate open?

... 'cause I love it. Heh.

What up, old nigga?

You got some words of welcome

for all this thugnificence?

Come on over here. Do it big, man.

Thug out with the homey.

Mm-mm.

Nappy-headed ho's.

Oh, yeah? Well, fuck you, old-ass nigga.

Stop hating and get money, my nigga.

You just mad at all this thugnificence.

Respect it, man.

[INHALES DEEPLY]

Breathe it in, nigga. Bask in it.

Now, where were we?

Uh, I don't know. I- I think it's pretty cool, I guess,

having a big celebrity move in.

Well, I don't know much about him,

but my two teenage kids are very excited.

You know, they love him.

They have the CD diskettes and the video games

and the dungarees with his name

on the, um, pocket.

I don't want them damn niggas

living across the street from me. Shoot.

Paid too much money for my house. Funny-ass music.

[LIKE RAPPER] Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Get 'em outta here.

I'm gonna kill this motherfucker.

MAN [ON TV]: Thugnificent and his cohorts, Macktastic and Flonominal,

formed The Lethal Interjection Crew,

and tasted success early

with the smash club anthem

"Booty-Butt Cheeks. "

Now Thugnificent has a new

multimillion-dollar major-label deal,

a new house in the suburbs

and a new album,

Rags to Bitches.

See, Rags to Bitches is more than a album.

I consider it as a movement.

The way I'm looking at it,

I'm picking up where Malcolm X left off, nigga.

It's that big. You know what I'm saying?

This is the movement that says, you know:

"Don't grow up and act like a fucking fool all the time,

"and you can still make it up out the 'hood

and enjoy everything that life has to offer. "

[?]

RUCKUS: It's like somebody threw a million dollars

into the monkey cage at the zoo.

It breaks my heart to watch

the "negridation" of this decent place.

Well, we can't live next to their kind.

We have kids.

I ain't gonna stand for it.

We were here first. Right.

GRANDDAD: What we gonna do?

TOM: I'd sell my house if I thought

it was still worth anything.

Why don't you just invite them over for dinner,

and get to know one another?

Yeah.

I guess I could do that.

[?]

MACKTASTIC: What's happening, nigga?

Where the chicken wings and the doughnuts?

What the fuck you got to eat in this bitch, nigga?!

Mm-mm. That shit ain't happening.

[RAP MUSIC PLAYING]

[GRUMBLING]

[GROWLS]

What the hell going on out here?

[LOUD RAP MUSIC PLAYING]

Hey! Shut up all that damn noise!

I'm a old man. Y'all need to listen to some Nat King Cole

and some Johnny Mathis.

[GROANS]

[GROANING]

[PEOPLE CHATTERING]

WOMAN: Why don't you call her then?

MAN: That's what I'm talkin' about here.

THUGNIFICENT: Hey, hey, hey. Little homey.

Hulk up, my nigga.

You ain't got no drink?

Get some of this

incredible hulk, little nigga.

Thanks, man.

Hey, my name is Riley,

and I live across the street.

Oh, with the mean old man?

Yeah, that's my granddad.

Don't mind him. He a hater.

Look, I don't wanna be dick riding

or nothing, you know.

I just wanna say that I like your music.

And, uh, you know, this is my turf over here,

and I'm holding it down for all the young G's.

So, you know, holler at your man

if you need anything.

I ain't on your nuts, though.

[LAUGHS]

Oh, man. Respect, little partner.

Hey, this little nigga's all right, y'all.

Hey! Nigga, get your motherfucking feet

off the table.

Your mama taught you better than that, ghetto-ass nigga.

Get your mother- Hey!

Who put the motherfucking Kool-Aid... [SPITS]

...in the Jacuzzi?

WOMAN 2: Whoo!

[GROANS]

[RILEY LAUGHS]

So then I say to R. Kelly,

"Did you wash your hands?"

Hey, for real? On the real?

Yo, this little nigga funny. Come on.

This little nigga like.

Charlie Murphy or some shit, man.

Hey, man. This your brother?

Hello. Goodbye.

Yo, nigga. Your brother told us

how you be all into reading and shit.

Hey, that's some real good shit, my nigga, for real.

Congratulations, nigga.

Did you just congratulate me for reading?

Word. Oh, yeah, man, you know,

Word. You know what I mean?

You know, that reading shit, it's hard, son.

Word. You know what I mean? Word.

And we got incredible hulks, nigga.

All the kids is welcome, motherfucker.

WOMAN 3: Who called me a bitch?

Huh? [MAN SNORING]

Get your drunk ass outta here.

[GRUNTS] Ahh!

[GASPS]

What the fuck? My yard.

911 emergency. I'll hold.

Uh, okay.

So that's complaint number 34457-dash-2,

regarding excessive noise,

people walking around

where they don't want them to be,

eating outside

when they think they should be inside at a table.

[DOORBELL RINGS]

Uh-oh.

You filed a complaint against Thugnificent?

Fine. It's on now.

NARRATOR: We now return to Thugnificent:

Rags to Bitches.

Thugnificent's rags-to-bitches story

took an unexpected turn recently

when he moved into his first home

in the super-elite suburb of Woodcrest.

Several of the black residents filed a complaint

to have Thugnificent forced out of the neighborhood.

Let me ask you something.

How did it make you feel

knowing that this neighborhood's black residents

didn't want you here?

Man, that hurt more than anything, you know?

To be stabbed in the back by your own people?

And for no reason? Man, we been good neighbors.

Superb, homey. Exemplary.

I feel sorry for 'em, though,

'cause they must have forgot

where they came from.

GRANDDAD: You don't know where I came from.

I'm from a small town called

Whip a Rapper's Little Narrow Country Ass. And you-

Hey. Put that camera back over here.

I ain't finished my damn line.

And y'all are making me homesick.

There, now stick that up your ass.

Eat a dick, old man.

You fucking-ass,

punk, old pussy-ass man.

MACKTASTIC: Eat a sack of baby dicks, motherfucker.

Yo, welcome back, welcome back. It's your boy, T.

Let's get into something brand new,

the club banger, "Eff Granddad" by my man-

That's my boy, my friend, Thugnificent.

You know what it is. Fatman Scoop on the radio right here.

New Thugnificent, "Eff Granddad,"

the first dis record against somebody's family member.

And it's got my main man,

Nate "Doggity" Dogg, on the hook.

Check it out.

Oh, wait, wait. Let me guess.

You gonna hate on it

just 'cause they was talkin' about you.

You need to stop with the hate crimes, Granddad.

That wasn't even me.

That was that nigga from Friday,

dressed like me. I'll sue.

You might wanna go over there and talk to them

before this gets outta hand.

You know what? Fuck them.

They can make all the silly little videos they want.

When the council vote on my complaint,

they'll be out of the neighborhood.

Dang, Granddad. Heh.

I always knew you was a hater,

but I never thought you'd be famous for it.

[?]

[DOG BARKING, DOOR OPENS]

TOM: Goodbye, Thugnificent.

[CHUCKLES]

Tom.

Oh, uh- Heh-heh.

Hey, Robert.

But, Tom, you filed the complaint with me.

Yeah. Then I thought about it,

and I just went over there and met the guys.

And turns out they're not so bad.

A little country, maybe, you know.

They use the word "thar" instead of "there. "

But, Tom. I thought we were in this together.

Yeah. [SUCKS IN AIR]

I know.

Me too.

[DOG BARKS, HOWLS]

This is... really uncomfortable,

so I'm just gonna mosey.

Mm-hm.

[VIBRATES]

[MAN COUGHING]

MAN: Hello?

Yo, this X. Who's this?

Uh, hey, there. This is, uh, Granddad.

Uh, you did some work on my car?

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

You talking about the Granddad

from the Thugnificent song?

Oh-ho, shit.

Man, that's my shit right there. Man, I love that song.

They roasted you.

Man, how'd it go? How'd that go?

? Oh, you're just mad 'Cause your ass is old?

Man, they killed you.

Yeah, see, that's actually why I'm calling.

See, I'm gonna make my own rap

about Thugnificent and embarrass him.

Hey, yo. You never gonna guess who on the phone.

And did you know that fool parked cars on my yard?

I'm gonna rap about that too.

So, uh, XYZ, uh, whatever your name is,

I was wondering if you would be interested

in rapping with me on this song?

See, I'll rap first, and you can come in and rap second.

But no curse words.

And none of them crazy metaphors:

"Your breasts look like two mountains. "

None of that garbage. Just stick to the point.

Can you turn me up in the headphones?

Granddad, you're only making things much, much worse.

Oh, hush, boy. I can rap.

Big Tank, please make it hot, player.

Yeah, this rap go out to Punknificent

and all his fans.

? Yeah, yeah?

? Old Punk-ass-nificent Never went to high school?

? That's why he's?

? A mother-mother-mother Mother fool?

? Momma was a fool?

? Daddy was too?

? You wanna be Like Thugnificent?

? Don't go to school, fool?

GRANDDAD [ON LAPTOP]: ? Yeah, yeah, yeah ?

This motherfucker went to YouTube?

No, this nigga didn't.

It's really on now. Oh, hell no.

This little fucking bitch-ass, old-ass nigga.

Hey, yo, word to mother...

Hello?

Oh, hey, hey, Mom.

What's-? What's going on, Ma?

Ma... I ain't threaten no old people.

Come on, Ma. That ain't

even my style, Ma.

This little old dude, Ma. Just one.

Ma, I really need to call you back, please.

'Cause I do. Mom, I'm in a meeting.

Mommy. Can I call you back, please, Ma?

Oh, okay, okay, cool.

I will. I'm gonna call you back, Mommy.

I love you too. [HANGS UP]

Hey, are we gonna fuck this old-ass nigga up?

Now, you know, I don't hate old people.

Just sometimes you gotta let 'em know

not to get it twisted.

Just 'cause you lived a long life,

don't mean it can't come to a short end, nigga.

What's up, world? This is Sway.

Law enforcement sources have confirmed

that two Cleveland teens have been arrested

for assaulting this man while reciting the lyrics

to Thugnificent's hit, "Eff Granddad. "

SWAY: One of the teens reportedly told police:

"I beat up old people

"because Thugnificent does it,

and that makes it cool. "

It wasn't the last incident.

Recently, a rash of elderly assaults

attributed to the beef, have broke out,

including two in Lithuania and one in Tokyo.

SWAY: The AARP announced a boycott

of Thugnificent's record label.

It's feared that the protest

could soon explode into more violence.

Man, Thugnificent ain't telling nobody

to beat up no old people.

I don't see how someone could get something like that

outta that song.

Thugnificent is talking about

what he's going through,

so maybe a young person listening

won't have to go through the same shit.

You smell me? You know, people always wanna-

[STAMMERS]

You know what I mean?

[CHATTER] HUEY: Ladies and gentlemen,

what started as a simple disagreement between neighbors

has devolved into senseless, ignorant, self-destructive

generational tribalism.

Fortunately, a robust exchange of ideas has taken place,

and we are hopeful to having a resolution shortly.

Thank you.

[REPORTERS TALKING]

He lets me whup him, we can call it even.

What's a nigga want? Try to whup me.

Whup your ass, nigga.

You know who you messin' with, nigga?

[ALL TALKING AT ONCE]

Would somebody here please be an adult?

You're neighbors. You have to live together.

THUGNIFICENT: Hey, man, you know what?

Somebody here needs to be an adult.

We're neighbors.

We have to learn to live together.

Yeah. Exactly.

Exactly. That's what I'm talking about.

That's a really grown-up way

to look at it, Thugnificent.

Not that I'm pole-jocking or nothing.

Hey, everybody good in here? Beverages?

What about you, big guy? You good?

Hey.

Let me get that for you, homey.

Any of y'all need a coaster?

Let me go get y'all these coasters, right quick.

Now, old man, we feel like

we been very courteous neighbors.

Courteous. What about the loud party?

Nigga, you gave us permission to have that party.

That's not my signature.

Hey, uh, I think I'm gonna go

whip y'all up a little snack or something.

Who's up for guacamole?

I make some mean guacamole...

Well, what about parking all those damn cars

on my yard and ruining my lawn?

Man, how was we to know valet was parking cars on your yard?

Niggas was passed out by then.

We was fixing to come over and apologize.

But then you had to go off filing complaints

and doing all that old gay shit.

THUGNIFICENT: You know what hurts?

You didn't respect us enough as homeowners

to just talk things out in a neighborly fashion.

That's a really powerful sentiment

you just expressed right there, Thugnificent.

Well, what about all that stuff in the video, huh?

Oh, nigga, that was just entertainment.

You being real sensitive right now, man.

Yeah, man. Anybody could see

that that was a satirical ass-beating.

Granddad, if you apologize to Thugnificent

for filing the complaint,

then I'm sure, Thugnificent,

you will be willing to apologize for the video.

[?]

Hell, no, I ain't apologizing, punk-ass nigga.

Kiss my ass, old-ass nigga.

Wait, wait, wait, wait! Please. Stupid-ass...

Can we at least agree,

for the sake of old people everywhere,

that there will be no more dis records?

Fine, whatever. I spits hot fire.

I'll eat your ass up on the M-I-C,

if you keep messing with me.

[CROWD CHEERS, APPLAUDS]

[CROWD CHATTERING]

You gonna pay for my lawn, boy.

Eat a dick, old nigga.

[CHEERS, APPLAUSE]

Yeah, you know, what Rags to Bitches means

is that there's more to life than what you're born into.

There's also bitches.
