57. and I was swimming with the seaweed, but it wasn't seaweed,

58. it was, like, hands.

59. And I was swimming with this girl.

60. And she was saying if the hands grab you,

61. they pull you down and drown you, so swim above them.

62. - Hmm. That's deep. - I know.

63. I think it's about society, 'cause, like—

64. - Who's the girl?

65. - I don't know.

66. - What she look like?

67. - She was fat.

68. And not interesting.

69. - Okay.

70. - You jealous?

71. - I'm disappointed in your story,

72. 'cause you're first saying that she's fat and annoying,

73. and then you all of a sudden turn around

74. and you're making out with this bitch.

75. - I never said we were making out.

76. - Were you making out? - Yeah.

77. Yeah, we were.

78. Oh, man.

79. I know you. - No, you don't know me.

80. - Mmm—oh, no. - What?

81. - My breath.

82. Oh, I love it. What is that?

83. Curry?

84. Are you kidding me? - Like a very deep curry?

85. That is not—that's, like, some freaky shit.

86. - Ooh, I like that.

87. - What are you— - I love that.

88. - You're so stupid.

89. - I don't care.

90. - Mm.

91. Tell me you love me.

92. - Why did you just laugh?

93. - 'Cause you always say that, and I'm always,

94. like, "of course."

95. - Then why don't you just say "I love you"?

96. - I love you.

97. Uh-oh.

98. She's awake.

99. She's gonna kill us all with her cuteness.

100. - You remember you have Lottie tonight, right?

101. - Hey, there.

102. Of course I did.

103. I did not.

104. - 'Cause I have parent teacher conferences.

105. Also, I don't always want her at your parents' house.

106. She lives here.

107. - I promise she won't be at my parents' house.

192. And thanks, Mom.

193. I'm your son, Earn.

194. I used to live in there with you, remember?

195. - Used to? There was a turd

196. the size of my arm waiting for me

197. when I got home yesterday.

198. You supposed to be so smart, you can't remember to flush?

199. - That wasn't me. - It was you. I checked.

200. You better eat something real.

201. Instead of all them candies and cookies

202. and whatever other stuff was in there.

203. - Did you break it up with a stick?

204. - Alfred's at the Glenwood apartments.

205. Love you, son.

206. - Hey, is this milk any good?

207. - What you using it for?

208. - Drinking.

209. - Yeah, no, man, don't use that to drink.

210. - Your peephole's for real.

211. - That's Darius.

212. Cookie?

213. - Thanks.

214. So, Zoo Tycoon— - You want in on Paper Boy.

215. - What?

216. No. - Please, man.

217. People ain't just nice, Earn.

218. When was the last time you were nice to a girl

219. you weren't trying to smash? - This morning.

220. - You talking about your daughter, man, that's gross.

221. - No, it'd be gross if I was trying to smash.

222. I don't want a handout, I want to manage you.

223. - Manage?

224. You know where the word "manage" come from?

225. - "Manus," Latin for hand.

226. - Probably, but I'm gonna say no for the purpose of my argument.

227. "Manage" come from the word "man," and, uh,

228. that ain't really your lane.

229. - My lane? - Yeah, man, I need Malcolm.

230. You too Martin.

231. You know what they did to him? They killed him.

232. - Didn't they kill Malcolm, too?

233. - Oh, no, they say that.

234. But ain't nobody seen the body since the funeral.

235. - That's how funerals work.

236. Alfred, you already Malcolm, okay?

237. You have that already.

238. What you really need is a silent wild card,

239. somebody who's about the money, the opportunity,

240. who can play both sides if needed.

241. - Oh, like Don Lemon.

242. - Fair point, let me rephrase what I'm trying to say.

243. - Oh, wait, wait, wait. It's 4:30.

244. - Oh, damn, man, we late.

245. - No. - Since when?

246. - I'm doing business.

247. - Hey, you want a manager a rapper,

248. but you can't do business hot?

249. VH1 is hiring interns.

250. And that sound like a joke, but they actually,

251. they tweeted that this morning.

252. - How's Princeton, by the way?

253. Still on that year off?

254. Three years is a long year off.

255. - I guess.

256. - I think I know what happened. - I really think you don't.

257. Look, man, is there somewhere we can talk for real?

258. 'Cause...

259. I'm sorry, who is this dude?

260. - Darius, man. - Man, I'm fine with talking—

261. - When you first walked in; I gave you cookie.

262. - No, yeah, I remember who you are.

263. Look, I'm not asking for money.

264. - You should be, ain't you homeless?

265. - Not real homeless.

266. I'm not using a rat as a phone or something.

267. - Don't be racist, man.

268. That make you schizophrenic, that don't make you homeless.

269. - Wait, wait, not if it worked, man.

270. No, if you could use a rat as a phone, man,

271. that'd be genius. I mean, there's like

272. five rats for every one person

273. in New York alone.

274. Everybody would have an affordable phone.

275. Yeah, man, I mean, it'd be messy, but...

276. worth it.

277. - Is he your manager?

278. Rappers need managers.

279. I'm just trying to get paid right quick.

280. - Yeah, man, rap is D-E-D. Ded.

281. - This isn't about rap.

282. If we do this right, your kids can live good,

283. my kids can live good, Darius's kids.

284. - I can't have kids.

285. - I'm sure I'll find out why when the time's right.

286. - When is an appropriate time to talk about

287. my balls getting smashed?

288. - Right now, apparently.

289. Look, I'm not dumb.

290. You're older, you have no real fan base.

291. You're not white and/or selling sex.

292. - I sell sex, man.

293. Hey, track 28. - Yeah.

294. - Oh!

295. - Come on. - Uh.

296. See, the concept is a massage— - I got the concept.

297. Okay, 28 tracks?

298. Lot of skits.

299. I'd cut 'em. - No, but his is different.

300. - Yeah, mine are really good.

301. - I'd still cut 'em.

302. - Well, you not my manager, Earn.

303. - I still know people at Diamond House.

304. Promoters.

305. People who manage big time artists now, man.

306. - Oh, boy, you think you slick.

307. You coming in here, acting like you saving me,

308. when really, I'm saving you again.

309. - Nigga, I'm trying to help you.

310. - Man, nigga, I ain't seen or heard from you

311. since my mom's funeral.

312. And the first thing I hear out your mouth

313. is "let's get rich."

314. Walk, man.

315. - What's up, dude?

316. - Earn? Yo, what's up, man?

317. Yo. - Good.

318. - Did you just come from that dumpster?

319. - No. How are you?

320. - Oh, yo, I'm good, man.

321. I didn't know you were in town.

322. - Uh, yeah, I've been low-key, man.

323. - Yo, obviously— oh, dude, if I knew

324. you was in town, I would've hit you up

325. with this party last night.

326. Yo, we needed a real DJ.

327. This dude—well, he can't spin worth of shit,

328. but then he goes and he plays Flo Rida.

329. - No! - Back to back.

330. - So I calmly pull him aside, I was just like,

331. "Really, nigga?"

332. - You actually said that? - Yeah, man, I had to.

333. - Cool. You know that song "Paper Boy"?

334. - Yeah, "Paper Boy" by Paper Boy.

335. Yeah, I've heard it. Shit's fine.

336. Dude, the streets love it.

337. - Y'all should play it.

338. - Yeah, for real.

339. - Yeah.

340. You guys should really play it.

341. - Uh, I mean, KP picks all the music.

342. - Well, slide it past him.

343. - I mean, KP will usually spin some records

344. for some scratch up top.

345. - How much?

346. - Half a stack. - $500?

347. Am I buying the station?

348. - Everything is who you know.

349. - Then introduce me.

350. - Yeah, I'm gonna introduce every dude in Atlanta

351. with a mixtape in my box. Come on.

352. - I'm not every dude.

353. - Uh, you kind of are.

354. - Look, I don't have $500.

355. I make 5.15, plus commission.

356. I got to pay rent tonight and my parents

357. won't let me in the house.

358. It's like those drug commercials,

359. only not funny.

360. - Man, you know how niggas out here are.

361. I mean, he usually charges a full safe.

362. - Then what's in it for you? Why am I so lucky?

363. What's your cut?

364. - Oh, I'm not about that, I'm too busy, man.

365. I mean, it's just business.

366. You give me the money,

367. I pass it on to KP.

368. But you know, it's probably for the best.

369. Music business is gross.

370. All right, man, well, you know, it was great seeing ya.

371. I'm taking over for Speedy tonight.

372. All right? Keep it locked.

373. What's up, my dudes? What's up, bro?

374. - Hey. Hey.

375. That guy ever say nigger around you?

376. - Yeah, right.

377. I'd break my foot in his ass.

378. - Right.

379. Hey, um...

380. what's your name? - Prince, man.

381. - For real? - Yeah.

382. - Hey, how late are you here tonight?

383. - What's up, Uncle Riley?

384. - Hey, what's going on, Al?

385. - Man, you know.

386. Hey. Hey, Auntie.

387. Oh, hey, Lottie.

388. Hey, bring Lottie over here, let me say hey to my cousin.

389. - That's okay.

390. She getting a contact high from here.

391. - Contact high—

392. that's that new leather you smelling.

393. You smelling it wrong.

394. - Yeah, well, I'm smelling it 'round your head.

395. - Say what? - Hey.

396. - You got a weird wife, you know that, huh?

397. - Hey, um...

398. hey, look, I know you don't know me—

399. my name's Darius.

400. Um, I was just wondering,

401. could I measure your tree?

402. - No, not right now.

403. - Not right now?

404. That basically means no, man.

405. - Look, I got a question.

406. So Earn want to manage me.

407. - Really?

408. And I don't trust him, no offense.

409. - I understand. - That's what's messed up.

410. I don't really think I know Earn anymore.

411. Like, what happened at Princeton?

412. - I never asked.

413. He'd tell you before me.

414. - No.

415. Earn is good at keeping his mouth shut.

416. - Earn trying like the rest of us.

417. But when he wants to do something, he does it.

418. On his terms.

419. - Your mind's racing.

420. Tell me, yo.

421. - I just keep losing.

422. I mean...

423. some people just...

424. supposed to lose?

425. For balance in the universe?

426. I mean... like, are there just

427. some people on Earth who...

428. supposed to be here just to make it easier for the winners?

429. Like, really.

430. - Resistance is a symptom of the way things are.

431. Not the way things necessarily should be.

432. Actual victory belongs to things

433. that simply do not see failure.

434. Let the path push you like a broken branch

435. in a river's current.

436. - No, no, I'm not going out like that,

437. but thanks for the advice.

438. - Bite this sandwich.

439. - No, I'm good, man.

440. - Nigga, if you don't bite this sandwich...

448. - Wow. That was quick.

449. - Hey, man, look, you should come down here.

450. We need to talk right quick.

451. - Like you would with a manager?

452. - No, nigga, like I would with a calm yo ass down!

453. - This is an exclusive.

454. WMQG exclusive.

455. - You want some dots?

456. - Yeah.

457. - Ah.

458. You found us.

459. - Hey, guys.

460. - Hey. - 'Sup?

461. - How'd you get in the building?

462. - It's all about who you know.

463. I knew somebody.

464. - Yeah, well, I mean, that was unprofessional.

465. And KP's pissed. - Can't be that pissed—

466. they're playing this on the radio right now.

467. Hey, man, this is Dave.

468. He works at 106.5.

469. He likes your stuff, so he's got good taste.

470. Actually, to a fault.

471. Yo, tell them that Flo Rida story.

479. and he's ruining it, and so then he goes

480. and he plays Flo Rida

481. back to back.

482. I had to go into the booth, calmly take him aside,

483. and look him right in the eyes, and just said,

484. "Really?"

485. - I don't know, man, I like Flo Rida.

486. I mean, moms need to enjoy rap, too.

487. - Yeah, I mean, that was a wack-ass story, man,

488. I don't know why he made me tell that.

489. - Yeah, I don't know.

490. - All right, man, well, it was good to see you, Earn.

491. It was nice to meet you guys.
