00:00:31who I am, but the power to make it move when I write a groove, I don't snooze, I kick
00:00:36it off nice and smooth, and when the beat goes down, feet hit the ground, the breakers start spinning all
00:00:41round and round, and if the body don't stop, cause we don't stop, we just rock, you feel it, we
00:00:46don't need those drops.
00:00:55Wait, it's the wrong time, I'm the best, I'm the best, I'm the best.
00:01:05Hey! Yes! Yes! I'm food!

00:02:08No!
00:02:16Creepy!
00:02:17No!
00:02:17Because I got to. Maybe I wouldn't have to if our pops was worth a damn, huh?
00:02:21Who's going to take care of this family if not me? You?
00:02:25I do what I got to to help Mommy.
00:02:27And the best way you can help is to stop daydreaming and think about how you can pitch in around
00:02:31here.
00:02:32I'm not going to have Mommy working three jobs while you're in La La Land.
00:02:35And then you can't donate to your family and think about how you can pitch in your house when your
00:02:43parents are in the room.
00:02:43He can't donate your money.
00:02:44And then you just get a free drink.
00:02:44Just pay me, ehe, you.
00:02:47And that's it, that's it, it's a gray, and brown.
00:02:50A little boy, I'm a little boy.
00:02:51Why did you wake up, Peake, and I had a room for you when I met you in the room?
00:02:53No, nena.
00:02:54Or what do you say, you're married?
00:02:56Oh, my.
00:02:57How do you say my friend?
00:02:58What do you say, my friend?
00:02:59What do you say?
00:03:00What do you say, my friend?
00:03:01I said, you were gonna die in the room.
00:03:02I'm sorry, I said no.
00:03:12If you don't want it all, I don't want nothing at all.
00:03:20If you don't want it all, I don't want nothing at all, nothing at all.
00:03:28Show me now that you really mean it. Are you playing for games?
00:03:36Ooh, Mickey don't get you.
00:03:39Show me now that you really mean it. Can't go on without me.
00:03:44I don't know. Have a good one.
00:03:46If you're gonna change your mind.
00:03:49Sorry. I'm here now.
00:03:51I'm going home. I'm going home.
00:03:55Ay, que calor. They need some air conditioning back here.
00:03:59How many of these are we gonna dress?
00:04:06Damn!
00:04:07I need a favor.
00:04:09No. Please, Lisa.
00:04:11Mm-mm. Last time I got into trouble because of you.
00:04:14Please, I know a place where we can make double what we were making before.
00:04:17I need the money. I know you do too.
00:04:25One hour.
00:04:26But that's it, okay?
00:04:28Okay, okay.
00:04:29I know we're getting 20.
00:04:32Feet on the ground.
00:04:34Heads to the sky.
00:04:38Oh, do you wanna dance with me tonight?
00:04:43The DJ is playing that song.
00:04:45The mood is right.
00:04:47Oh, do you wanna dance with me tonight?
00:04:51Follow me on the floor under flashing lights.
00:04:59Thank you, thank you.
00:05:00We'll be here all night.
00:05:02I gotta go.
00:05:03My brother told me to pick up stuff for dinner and he's gonna kill me.
00:05:06Okay.
00:05:07All right.
00:05:08Oh, my gosh.
00:05:20Use you.
00:05:21You're gonna make me, you're gonna make me, you're gonna make me, you're gonna make me.
00:05:23And then I like it, my music.
00:05:30I'm gonna cook for dinner and dinner and dinner.
00:05:32Don't you want me to cook?
00:05:35Get the meat in the oven.
00:05:39What's the thing?
00:05:41I'm gonna eat.
00:05:41I'm gonna eat, I'm gonna eat.
00:05:42Let me eat.
00:05:45Let me eat.
00:05:57Thank you, mommy.
00:06:09You don't worry about this.
00:06:11You hear me?
00:06:13We came here to stuff fresh.
00:06:16Okay?
00:06:20One day I'll be so rich, mommy.
00:06:22I'm going to take care of you.
00:06:23I'm going to buy you a new car.
00:06:27Mamita, the only thing I want you to do
00:06:29is to take care of yourself.
00:06:32Don't ever count on anybody taking care of you.
00:06:35Okay?
00:06:37Yeah.
00:06:39But if you just so happen to be rich...
00:06:41What?
00:06:42I want a conversation.
00:06:43Beep there.
00:06:46I got to go.
00:06:47You come straight home after work, okay?
00:06:50I love you, mommy.
00:06:52I love you.
00:07:01I hear your boys are Jellybean.
00:07:03Yeah, we got way back.
00:07:05What was Jellybean?
00:07:07It's the main DJ at the boombox basement.
00:07:08Boy, that is it.
00:07:10You just got Madonna.
00:07:11Boy.
00:07:12Boy, this is fun.
00:07:13Can you introduce me?
00:07:14To Jelly?
00:07:15No, Deron Reagan.
00:07:16Yeah.
00:07:17It's her thing, but you know in this city, nothing's free.
00:07:20Especially when it comes to Jellybean.
00:07:22What do you want?
00:07:30Hell no.
00:07:31Jellybean's always got any funny talent.
00:07:33Besides, Guy won't go home unless you come with us.
00:07:35I don't even like him like that.
00:07:36Girl, who said you're going to be into him?
00:07:38Just pretend it's an extra long trip in the stock room.
00:07:41Is your brother even going to let you go?
00:07:42Of course he will.
00:07:43Why wouldn't he?
00:07:44Girl, I run the show at home.
00:07:47Hell no.
00:07:48Why?
00:07:51No, you know how many pervs and weirdos go to places like that to pick up on young girls?
00:07:56You're going to be with me.
00:07:57It's a bar.
00:07:58You're 15.
00:07:59It's seen that there won't be an alcohol.
00:08:01Eladio, stop and listen to me.
00:08:05I'm going to live and die in this neighborhood and never be nothing.
00:08:09I want to take care of Mommy one day.
00:08:12What's that got to do with this club?
00:08:13There are going to be people there who can help me.
00:08:16Give me a shot at singing.
00:08:17There you go.
00:08:18Head in the sky again.
00:08:20I'll take out the trash for a month.
00:08:25We can make it, we can make it work.
00:08:33We're all back.
00:08:36Coming from a far land where they never stay.
00:08:38They don't have a contest, but they're too afraid.
00:08:40But I'm rocking the road so we'll be blessed to my.
00:08:42While the DJ's fresh and like innocent fresh from the west, the east, the north to the south.
00:08:46When I step into the front, we're standing on count.
00:08:48Just want to have a good time.
00:08:50I think we're just fine.
00:08:51All I need is 30 seconds.
00:08:52I'm going to rock around.
00:08:53Get my breath in the down.
00:08:54Is that him?
00:08:55Can you introduce me?
00:08:57I don't know him like that.
00:09:01I thought you said he wasn't home.
00:09:02I know who he is.
00:09:04He's in the set.
00:09:05Try to get us into the green room.
00:09:07Come on.
00:09:10I'll figure out myself.
00:09:12I'm going home.
00:09:13I've got homework to do.
00:09:19Damn, my bad.
00:09:26Jelly beans.
00:09:27Jelly beans.
00:09:29Jelly beans.
00:09:29I don't post in the order of the pickin'.
00:09:31DJ replay, we stay calm.
00:09:33Drop beats like bars when you're playing my song.
00:09:35Johnny, my man, what's up?
00:09:36We don't mind the talking.
00:09:37Parlay all day.
00:09:38I went off it.
00:09:39We played off it.
00:09:40Y'all on defense.
00:09:41Fox and you pretend I'm getting evil.
00:09:43Get rocket.
00:09:44Beat the boys in the place.
00:09:45Getting down to the green.
00:09:46Get another group's face.
00:09:48Get rocket.
00:09:48One time a song.
00:09:50Going from the Baymax in the early morning.
00:09:52Get rocket.
00:09:53Not the time for the chat.
00:09:54I'm doing my dance all across the mountain.
00:09:56Get rocket.
00:09:57I'm going to see K-I-N-G.
00:09:58And I suggest you don't mess with me.
00:10:02You're going to sneak backstage.
00:10:03Take the tray.
00:10:04What?
00:10:05Take the tray.
00:10:12I mentioned it.
00:10:17How much?
00:10:18Duh.
00:10:20Duh?
00:10:20Come on.
00:10:21Those are the prices.
00:10:23Inflation, my man.
00:10:24You got better options.
00:10:25I suggest you get to it.
00:10:26I got business going on here.
00:10:27I got business going on here.
00:10:39I hear you help singers.
00:10:43Singers?
00:10:44Nah.
00:10:46I help artists.
00:10:48If they're worth it.
00:10:50Well, I'm worth it.
00:10:51The best damn pipes, you're here all night.
00:10:55Okay, shawty.
00:10:57That's how you blow.
00:11:02I got sunshine, light in my way.
00:11:06You're trying to be the clown, but just float away.
00:11:10Don't matter about the sticks and the stones you say.
00:11:13Cause your world's about to flood and you're in my way.
00:11:17Cause I'm rolling, rolling.
00:11:21Try to stop us, we just keep going.
00:11:24Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
00:11:30All right.
00:11:33Fresh.
00:11:34I see ya.
00:11:36What's your name?
00:11:37Lisa.
00:11:38Lisa Velez.
00:11:39All right, Lisa.
00:11:40Lisa Velez.
00:11:41How old are you?
00:11:4418.
00:11:46Who's bugging?
00:11:4915.
00:11:53Hmm.
00:11:55All right, Lisa.
00:11:57Leave me your digits.
00:12:00Let's get back to the rules.
00:12:06Let me see.
00:12:08Hmm.
00:12:11Come on, man.
00:12:12I just need a couple of intros.
00:12:13That's all.
00:12:16I told you, Mamita.
00:12:18Ain't no one looking for a singer with your...
00:12:22look.
00:12:23What you mean?
00:12:24What's wrong with my look?
00:12:25Look, I love you the way you are.
00:12:28But these record executives, they start bugging about silly things like looks and image.
00:12:34But you know I can sing my ass off.
00:12:37I know it.
00:12:38But they don't.
00:12:40And you don't get past a record label without them thinking about your image.
00:12:44Or theirs.
00:12:46And besides, these record labels, they're full of whack-ass scam artists.
00:12:51Just waiting to take advantage of a young buck like you.
00:12:54I ain't exactly no young buck.
00:12:57You still working with your pots?
00:12:59Sampling the product?
00:13:01It's homey.
00:13:03Dealing only leads down one path.
00:13:05So help me get another path.
00:13:17Yo, Shorty.
00:13:19I heard you singing over there.
00:13:21It was fresh.
00:13:23You from around here?
00:13:24We're on the way.
00:13:25Tell's kitchen.
00:13:26Word.
00:13:27Well, look.
00:13:27I got this joint that I've been working on for a minute.
00:13:30Don't be pushing over.
00:13:31Whoa.
00:13:32I'm trying to talk to her.
00:13:33You know what I'm saying?
00:13:34Gosh, you ain't even trying to holler at you.
00:13:35Look, bro.
00:13:36Homie.
00:13:37I got a band.
00:13:38And we need a lead singer.
00:13:40Jellybean told me that she was looking.
00:13:42Got a few producers that are interested, you know, if you want to audition.
00:13:45My name's Mike Hughes.
00:13:47Here's my number and address to the recording studio.
00:13:50Play drums.
00:13:51Maybe we can make some music together.
00:13:54But just music, man.
00:13:55Time to go.
00:13:58You ain't going to know I listened to that guy.
00:14:00No, of course not.
00:14:02I know that.
00:14:09Robert, come over to the opportunity and tell me this is really dope.
00:14:12I got this guitarist.
00:14:13He's really amazing.
00:14:14I got this girl.
00:14:14She's walking.
00:14:15She's going to be amazing, too.
00:14:17Hold up.
00:14:17This is her.
00:14:20Hey.
00:14:20Hey.
00:14:21There's someone I want you to meet.
00:14:22Come over here.
00:14:24This is Rocco.
00:14:25He's the manager.
00:14:26Hi.
00:14:27Rocco, we just need five minutes.
00:14:31You got three, Mike.
00:14:31Come over here.
00:14:33Come over here.
00:14:34Come over here.
00:14:34Lisa, come on.
00:14:35I asked someone I want you to meet.
00:14:36This is Spanador.
00:14:37Hey.
00:14:37Nice to meet you, Spanador.
00:14:38Hey.
00:14:39I heard you can sing.
00:14:39I heard you can play.
00:14:40Yeah, yeah, let's go.
00:14:42Did you practice the song?
00:14:43Mike wrote it.
00:14:44Yeah, I worked in the last night.
00:14:45Ready?
00:14:46Let's go.
00:14:47Well, when do you think you're going to record the song?
00:14:52Ah, no booth, one mic, see what you got.
00:14:57The booth.
00:14:58Come on, man.
00:15:01Guys, hey, let's listen to him.
00:15:04Come on.
00:15:05Ah.
00:15:12Oh, baby, baby, it's your show.
00:15:15So come and take your bow.
00:15:18Are you down but blue?
00:15:22All I need is your love, baby.
00:15:31Thanks.
00:15:32We'll let you know.
00:15:33All right.
00:15:33Come on, man.
00:15:34Let's get one of the sheets.
00:15:35Let me spend my time, right?
00:15:36We got to go.
00:15:36We got other stuff to do.
00:15:39Hey.
00:15:41Why don't you play a song you know?
00:15:43Something you're comfortable with.
00:15:45Hey, guys.
00:15:46Back her up, whatever she wants?
00:15:48Yeah, of course.
00:15:51So what you want to sing?
00:15:52Hey, guys, look.
00:15:53Let's do another shot.
00:15:54Something she knows.
00:16:15Uptown, downtown, the funk is on the move.
00:16:23Cartier and Louisville is sure to set the mood.
00:16:31When we're alone in your mind, only a fool will ever try to hide.
00:16:39Let your hold and stroke again.
00:16:41Leave me in the head feeling high.
00:16:49Yeah.
00:16:51Yeah.
00:16:52Yeah.
00:16:52What about Hell's Kitchen's trio?
00:16:54Wow.
00:16:54Wow.
00:16:55No, that sounds like my abuel's band or something like that.
00:16:57I didn't think you could get any worse than your last suggestion.
00:17:01It's gotta be slick, it's gotta be, you know, something that screams we're all about culture, hip-hop, and music.
00:17:07And that we can jam.
00:17:08Yeah.
00:17:11Cult jam?
00:17:12That's fly.
00:17:14Mm-hmm.
00:17:14I got it.
00:17:16Lisa and cult jam.
00:17:18Okay.
00:17:19I'm feeling it.
00:17:20All right, but it needs that extra flavor, you know, because Lisa ain't your everyday girl.
00:17:26That's what I'm saying.
00:17:26Mm-hmm.
00:17:27No.
00:17:28She's not.
00:17:30Oh.
00:17:30Nah, Lisa, ain't your everyday girl?
00:17:33She's uniquely blessed.
00:17:35How about Lisa, Lisa, and cult jam?
00:17:42Yo, that's fresh.
00:17:44Right?
00:17:45Don't you think, Lisa?
00:17:47Yeah, that's a joint.
00:17:49I'm down.
00:17:50We got a name.
00:17:51Lisa, Lisa and cult jam.
00:17:54I wonder if I take you home.
00:17:56Would you still be your home, baby?
00:17:59Because I need you tonight.
00:18:01I like the bass and that progression.
00:18:03If I take you home.
00:18:04You're welcome.
00:18:05Would you still be your home, baby?
00:18:08Because I need you tonight.
00:18:10Oh-oh.
00:18:11Hey, you and you two.
00:18:11Oh-oh.
00:18:15Brothers are some of the best producers in town.
00:18:18This is Grant Barry.
00:18:18Thank you so much.
00:18:20Yes.
00:18:21Lisa, sweetheart.
00:18:25You're incredible.
00:18:26Wait, that sound?
00:18:27That's amazing.
00:18:29The men.
00:18:30The men are going to go gaga for you.
00:18:34I told you.
00:18:35Yeah, you did.
00:18:36So what's next? Tour?
00:18:39Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
00:18:42Typically, we test the song,
00:18:44see how it lands in different markets
00:18:46before we actually sign an artist.
00:18:49How do you do that?
00:18:51We send the record to a few friendly DJs in the UK.
00:18:54And we'll be right back with Radio FM UK.
00:19:03The label better not have sent me rubbish like the last time.
00:19:07That was pure yank nonsense.
00:19:10I mean, if it hits, you start talking contracts.
00:19:13If not, you know the music world is littered with one hit wonders.
00:19:19Who is this again, mate?
00:19:23A lot of them crash and burn.
00:19:25Don't worry.
00:19:27Rocco here is going to make sure everything runs smoothly.
00:19:30Isn't that right, Rocco?
00:19:31Yep.
00:19:32So it's my job to book your gigs, find the producers,
00:19:34and work on promotions.
00:19:36Hey, Mommy! Did you find it all right?
00:19:39Yeah.
00:19:40Hello, ma'am.
00:19:43Hello, Mom. Pleasure to meet you.
00:19:46Me too.
00:19:47Barry Connor.
00:19:47I just have a few papers that need your signature.
00:19:51Let's step out for a second.
00:19:53Okay.
00:19:55I'll catch right up to you.
00:19:58Okay.
00:19:58Turn it back on, bro?
00:19:59Maybe, uh...
00:20:01You know that we can't proceed unless she signs, right?
00:20:05I mean, it's just too much risk with an underage artist.
00:20:08So walk her through it, okay?
00:20:11Oh, yeah.
00:20:13Do we need a lawyer or anything?
00:20:15No.
00:20:15The contracts are standard.
00:20:17New artist usually signed as is.
00:20:19Oh, cool.
00:20:23Let's run this.
00:20:24Let me beat.
00:20:30Please, Mommy.
00:20:33No.
00:20:34I don't know him.
00:20:35I don't know what I'm signing.
00:20:37What if something happens?
00:20:38Nothing is gonna happen.
00:20:39I do, Nena.
00:20:40I see how they look at you.
00:20:43I know what these men want.
00:20:44And it's not just your voice.
00:20:46No, you all know what they want, Mommy.
00:20:47Mira!
00:20:48Lisa.
00:20:50Everything okay?
00:20:51Yeah.
00:20:52We're almost done.
00:20:54All right.
00:20:56I'm a singer.
00:20:57I need to be singing.
00:21:00I can move us to a better neighborhood.
00:21:03And you won't even have to work anymore.
00:21:05Lisa, that's not your job.
00:21:08You once told me to never count on someone to take care of me.
00:21:13Hmm?
00:21:15You said to do it yourself.
00:21:18So this is me doing it myself.
00:21:44All right, we need to get you guys back in the studio right away.
00:21:48Contracts are signed.
00:21:51You go home.
00:21:53Celebrate.
00:21:54Tomorrow we get to work.
00:21:56Come on.
00:21:56Go, Mom.
00:21:57I didn't say the podcast, kid.
00:21:58That's what I'm talking about.
00:22:00Come on.
00:22:01Hey, sweetheart.
00:22:02Sweetheart.
00:22:03Lisa.
00:22:03Can I talk to you a second?
00:22:05Yeah.
00:22:06There's a lot of work, time, and money that goes into making you a star.
00:22:10I need to make sure I'm not wasting any of that.
00:22:12So you're not pregnant or nothing, right?
00:22:16Pregnant?
00:22:18I'm 15.
00:22:19Like I said, there's a lot that goes into young stars.
00:22:22I need to make sure I'm not wasting it.
00:22:25I don't need a pregnant teenager on the road.
00:22:27You got me?
00:22:28Well, you don't have to worry about me, Mr. Khanna.
00:22:30I'm locked in.
00:22:31Good answer.
00:22:34And call me Barry.
00:22:37Yes, sir.
00:22:39Uh, Barry.
00:22:42I gotta go.

00:23:08I know.
00:23:13Huh?
00:23:14Oh, that's what was taking you so long, huh?
00:23:18Wow.
00:23:19Yo, Lisa.
00:23:21In a month, every girl's gonna be covering her eye, trying to look just like you.
00:23:28Baby, I know you're wondering why I won't go over to your place.

00:25:20Make some noise right there.
00:25:22Come on.
00:25:22Come with Lisa Lisa, baby.
00:25:25Every home in America watches the bands on this show, and Chuck Ryder is a titan of the industry here.
00:25:31If you don't screw up tonight, America will love you by tomorrow.
00:25:37Come on, let's go.
00:25:38Hey, where's Crafty at?
00:25:41All right, Starlings.
00:25:43It's show time.
00:25:48It feels like someone died in here.
00:25:51I'm just nervous, that's all.
00:25:54Are you ready?
00:25:58Yeah.
00:25:58Yeah, we're right here.
00:26:00Yeah.
00:26:01Come on.
00:26:02Okay, I meant just you.
00:26:04Chuck likes a little personal touch, a little pre-show interview.
00:26:09I'm sorry, fellas, but don't worry.
00:26:12You can watch her right here on the live feed.
00:26:15No, but we're a band.
00:26:17And you'll play as one.
00:26:18Just a quick chat before with you.
00:26:22Let's go.
00:26:29Ladies and gentlemen, from Lisa, Lisa, and Cult Jam, please welcome Lisa Lisa.
00:26:40I love you too.
00:26:46Welcome to the show.
00:26:48So how are you doing today, Lisa?
00:26:50Well, I'm great.
00:26:50Very excited to be here.
00:26:51And how does it feel to be in this position?
00:26:54Well, it's a dream come true.
00:27:08Tony, I thought you weren't dealing.
00:27:10Look, I'm not, man.
00:27:11Or I'm networking.
00:27:12You never know where the next gig's gonna come from.
00:27:14Besides, I think this dude right here knows some record execs.
00:27:16Right.
00:27:18Heh.
00:27:18Sure.
00:27:22Got a line on a gig.
00:27:24Word.
00:27:25An audition.
00:27:26New band looking for backup singers.
00:27:29But I'm not backup?
00:27:30Tony, no.
00:27:32But look where you are.
00:27:34It's gotta be this game.
00:27:37Hey.
00:27:38You wanna spend your whole life looking over your shoulder?
00:27:40Just cause it didn't work out last time doesn't mean you quit.
00:27:44Doesn't mean you stop trusting people.
00:27:47It's show business.
00:27:49It's the music game.
00:27:50And the music game takes time.
00:27:56Think about it?
00:27:57Think about it.
00:28:00All right.
00:28:01Peace.
00:28:02Peace.
00:28:07You ain't back.
00:28:08I ain't back.
00:28:09Not for long.
00:28:13Mike, listen, I got this.
00:28:16You do it out.
00:28:17Spawn it off.
00:28:18We're just gonna go with number two.
00:28:19No, number two is not gonna work, bro.
00:28:20We need another audition.
00:28:22But she looks the best.
00:28:23It doesn't matter if she looks the best, bro.
00:28:24We need another audition.
00:28:25We don't have time for another audition.
00:28:27Well, I don't know what you want me to say, but not one of them blend with our sound.
00:28:30Word.
00:28:31What do we do, Alex?
00:28:32We're going two in a month.
00:28:33Well, we keep searching.
00:28:35We already behind on schedule.
00:28:37We either pick a team today or we push.
00:28:40The label not waiting on us.
00:28:43We got bands lined up right now that's ready to go.
00:28:46All right, Rocco.
00:28:46Just give me another hour.
00:28:47I can find some ladies.
00:28:48I'll go around to fit that Baptist.
00:28:50I'll find you a whole lot of girls who can sing best.
00:28:52Here we go again.
00:28:52Make an executive decision.
00:28:53We're going with number two.
00:28:54No, we're not going with number two.
00:28:55Are we going with number two?
00:29:17It's all good.
00:29:31Hey, pack your bags, folks, because we going on tour.
00:29:37Cigarettes don't affect your voice?
00:29:39No.
00:29:40I mean, they actually give it a little raspy bass out of my heaven.
00:29:43Those things will kill you, you know.
00:29:44Well, whenever the government comes out with a study saying these are bad for you, I'll stop.
00:29:50I'm Lisa.
00:29:52Tony.
00:29:53How long are you visiting you for?
00:29:56I grew up singing on street corners.
00:29:58Yeah, me too.
00:30:00You know, it's not going to be what you think it is, right?
00:30:05What's that?
00:30:06I mean, this music industry.
00:30:08You know, it's just like the streets.
00:30:10Use it or it'll use you.
00:30:12So you got to watch yourself.
00:30:13Everybody's going to try to take a piece of you and you can't let them.
00:30:16And where are you going?
00:30:18Look, I mean, most of these dudes want a backup singer that's something to look at.
00:30:23And I'm not that.
00:30:25Then why'd you come?
00:30:27Because I promised a friend.
00:30:29But I know the game.
00:30:33Don't smoke these menthols on the road.
00:30:36They'll mess up with your voice.
00:30:37And I can't have that.
00:30:41Whatever.
00:30:42I was trying to quit anyway.
00:30:45Hey.
00:30:46Go home.
00:30:47Pack a bag.
00:30:48Because it's going to be a ride.
00:30:57Come on, baby.
00:30:58We're done soon.
00:31:00Yeah, baby.
00:31:00A little longer, okay?
00:31:01You got to go.
00:31:03Come on.
00:31:06I mean, what's this about?
00:31:08Come on.
00:31:08Baby, no, no, no.
00:31:11They're going to have to, you know, check my makeup again.
00:31:14Stop.
00:31:15I thought we had dinner plans tonight.
00:31:17Yo, this city's so crazy sometimes.
00:31:20I almost had to scrap with a bunch of teenagers.
00:31:22Excuse me.
00:31:23Okay.
00:31:23Signatures.
00:31:25Okay.
00:31:25More promotional tours means more papers to sign.
00:31:30Again?
00:31:31Hey, that's the life of a big star.
00:31:33Jesus Christ.
00:31:34Wow, a commercial?
00:31:36Yeah.
00:31:38We rearranged a few things so, you know, you could sneak it in.
00:31:43Well, I was supposed to go home after this set.
00:31:47Mm-hmm.
00:31:47I haven't seen my family in a year.
00:31:50This is a national commercial.
00:31:52It's a lot of money.
00:31:54I just, it's been concert after concert.
00:31:58You said you wanted to be a star, right?
00:32:00This is the pace you have to work at.
00:32:02So, give her creative control.
00:32:05Yeah, that's not the way we do things around here, but thanks.
00:32:08Do it anyway.
00:32:10Yeah.
00:32:11I want creative control.
00:32:13Lisa.
00:32:14I want to start putting my stamp on this.
00:32:16I want to get involved in the creative.
00:32:18I want to help with the set design and the choreography
00:32:21and to pick up the dancers, right?
00:32:24Yeah, she does it anyway.
00:32:33Of course.
00:32:34You'll be involved.
00:32:37Let's go!
00:32:38Let's get to work!
00:32:39Yo, sweetheart, you ready or what?
00:32:40In a minute, baby.
00:32:41The record label needs you, all right?
00:32:43This is not the other way around.
00:32:44I want you.
00:32:45All right, perfect.
00:32:45You know what?
00:32:46I want to go.
00:32:47Hurry up.
00:32:48Hold on, man.
00:32:49Lisa, come on, man.
00:32:49Here's your hand right here.
00:32:51Typer, you ready?
00:32:51Come on.
00:32:52Let's go.
00:32:52Look at the camera.
00:32:53Three, two, one.
00:32:58Perfect, perfect.
00:32:59Hold on.
00:32:59Lisa, Lisa, listen.
00:33:00Hold on.
00:33:01Can I get an idea, please?
00:33:02No.
00:33:03My idea sucks.
00:33:04Tell us to get some trios on.
00:33:06Are you for it?
00:33:06No.
00:33:07All right, bro.
00:33:08You know she's not part of this group, right?
00:33:10What do you mean?
00:33:11Yo, I'm right here.
00:33:12You could say it to my face.
00:33:13I'm talking to Lisa.
00:33:14What's your problem?
00:33:16The problem is we don't need any more voices offering their opinions on music, fashion, and photo shoots.
00:33:21Fellas, let's take a little break.
00:33:23What do you mean, break?
00:33:24Yeah, I had some flash spandex I wanted to flash, man.
00:33:27Well, nobody want to see you in no spandex.
00:33:30You know, we're just going to focus on a few shots of Lisa alone.
00:33:33Why don't you guys go to craft service, grab a coffee?
00:33:39Hey, yo.
00:33:40This was your band, Mike.
00:33:42You got two little girls telling you what to do.
00:33:44One is just the background segment.
00:33:55Come on.
00:33:55Hold on.
00:33:56Hold on.
00:33:56Hold on.
00:33:56Hold on.
00:33:56Hold on.
00:33:56Hold on.
00:33:57Hold on.
00:33:58Hold on.
00:33:59Hold on.
00:33:59Hey, you're good.
00:33:59You're good?
00:34:03Come on.
00:34:08Yo, Rick.
00:34:09Let me talk to you for a second.
00:34:12Of course.
00:34:14I just want to make sure you know that we're a band.
00:34:17I know Lisa's going to get all the attention since she's the lead singer.
00:34:21But anything that we should be doing, we should be doing together.
00:34:26Interviews, photo shoots, everything.
00:34:31All right.
00:34:34Is that all?
00:34:40Yeah.
00:34:41Good to hear.
00:34:43Catch up with you on tour.
00:34:45Keep up the great work, fellas.
00:34:48Fantastic shoot today.
00:34:51Fantastic.
00:34:57That's dope. Why does she have to redo it?
00:35:00Yeah, I mean, it still needs a final mix, but we're close, Tony.
00:35:02We're close.
00:35:03We got it, we got it.
00:35:09Sounding good, sounding good.
00:35:12What's going on?
00:35:13Hey, Lisa, you're crushing that track.
00:35:17Ha-ha, thank you!
00:35:18Come join us.
00:35:20Okay.
00:35:23Guys, the label's happy, so I'm happy.
00:35:27That's good.
00:35:27I know I don't have to tell you things are different now.
00:35:31We're playing in bigger venues.
00:35:33You guys are going to be on the road longer.
00:35:34That means more money.
00:35:35More money.
00:35:37Hey, so you have to stay focused.
00:35:40You're not stars yet.
00:35:42Speak for yourself.
00:35:43Ha, I'm a star.
00:35:44I don't speak a star.
00:35:46All right, guys, hey, great job today.
00:35:49Get out of here. See you tomorrow.
00:35:50Wait.
00:35:52Hey, I'm going to go to the county.
00:35:53I'll be there.
00:35:53All right.
00:35:54Hey, Lisa, do you have a moment?
00:35:56Yeah, sure.
00:35:58It's business.
00:36:02Baby, I'll see you in a car in a second, yeah?
00:36:06I got the car.
00:36:10Don't be long.
00:36:10Baby.
00:36:14So, Rocco, I think...
00:36:15I picked up some papers.
00:36:17I just need you to go over some of it.
00:36:20If you need help, I can go over it with you.
00:36:24Yeah, I can take a look at it later.
00:36:27I should probably get over it.
00:36:28Hey.
00:36:31I want to say what I asked you.
00:36:34Wait, Rocco, stop.
00:36:35That's looking good.
00:36:36Come here.
00:36:37Hey, what the hell are you doing, Rocco?
00:36:40Stop.
00:36:40No, stop, Rocco.
00:36:42You're playing too much.
00:36:44Hey, Rocco.
00:36:45Wait, stop.
00:36:47What are you doing?
00:36:49What was that all about?
00:36:50Stop playing.
00:36:52You stop playing.
00:36:53Rocco, stop.
00:36:54I've been thinking about cheating like this.
00:36:56Stop, Rocco.
00:36:59You played too much.
00:37:02See you later.
00:37:18You good?
00:37:19Yeah.
00:37:21You sure?
00:37:22I said I'm good.
00:37:23Just leave me alone, okay?
00:37:24Right, right.
00:37:25Whatever.
00:37:25Jeez.
00:37:28Jeez.
00:37:30Jeez.
00:37:31Jeez.
00:37:32Jeez.

00:37:40Oh, man, you ready to go spend some money?
00:37:42Hell yeah.
00:37:44Oh, my God.
00:37:46Okay.
00:37:47Oh, this is gorgeous.
00:37:48Wow.
00:37:49No, this is it.
00:37:51Right?
00:37:52Oh, I love this card.
00:37:54What?
00:37:57I know.
00:37:58Do you take cash or check?
00:38:00Yeah, which one is it?
00:38:01Oh, I guess I pass the tape.
00:38:03It doesn't matter.
00:38:05I love this.
00:38:08Whoa.
00:38:09Oh, yeah.
00:38:10Yeah, yeah.
00:38:12Whoa.
00:38:13Whoa.
00:38:14But you had something in mind for us.
00:38:17Whoa.
00:38:19When I look into your eyes, I can't stop the rhythm.
00:38:23Should've known it only was a daydream.
00:38:28Whoa.
00:38:29Whoa.
00:38:29What did I expect?
00:38:31It's giving you my heart and just play it up to the baby side.
00:38:36Can I go on, bro?
00:38:37Hey.
00:38:38Lisa, let's get out of here.
00:38:39Let's go.
00:38:39Come on.
00:38:40I don't got all back.
00:38:41Yo, this is flop.
00:38:42Right?
00:38:43What?
00:38:43Nikki, can you find me this in a medium, please?
00:38:47You look amazing.
00:38:50Oh, my God.
00:38:51Where's the guy?
00:38:52How's it how you've been?
00:38:53You got to go.
00:38:53Oh, I'm sorry.
00:38:54I love you.
00:38:55Love you, too.
00:38:56I'm sorry.
00:38:57Oh, you see everyone on my tour.
00:38:58Hey, hey, hey.
00:38:59Chill, chill, chill.
00:39:01Watch out.
00:39:01Watch out.
00:39:01Come on.
00:39:01Come on.
00:39:02Sorry, guys.
00:39:02So nice to meet you.
00:39:03Bye.
00:39:05Oh, wow.
00:39:10Please, I love you.
00:39:11It's the first time mommy will come see me.
00:39:14No, just get on the train and come on.
00:39:19Let me hear you.
00:39:20Mommy.
00:39:23Mommy.
00:39:23Mommy.
00:39:24Hi.
00:39:25Mom.
00:39:25I'm so glad you're here.
00:39:27You're beautiful.
00:39:28Oh, my God.
00:39:29You lost weight.
00:39:30I've got a surprise for you.
00:39:31Yeah?
00:39:32I'll show you after the show.
00:39:33Come on.
00:39:39This is for you.
00:39:41What do you mean?
00:39:44It's yours.
00:39:47No.
00:39:47I can't believe this.
00:39:50Did you see what Lisa bought me?
00:39:52Oh, my God.
00:39:52Why did you do this?
00:39:53Oh, my God.
00:39:54You know we were all saving up the bitch in and buy her a car.
00:39:55I know.
00:39:56I know.
00:39:56I just wanted to do this for you.
00:39:57No, no.
00:39:58That's not the point.
00:39:59Ay, Eladio, why can't you just be proud of me?
00:40:01For once in your life, didn't you just say,
00:40:03I'm proud of you, Lisa?
00:40:05Why can't you do that?
00:40:07It kills you to think that I can leave and do something more
00:40:09and you're just stuck here.
00:40:10You don't know what you're talking about.
00:40:12Oh, my.
00:40:15Look at her.
00:40:16Just let her have this.
00:40:20Mommy, look at this.
00:40:22The power's here.
00:40:24Oh, and you have the glove company.
00:40:26Yeah.
00:40:34Well, what is that?
00:40:36This...
00:40:37This isn't...
00:40:38What is it?
00:40:41Well, thank you, God.
00:40:43Thank you, God.
00:40:46Glory to God.
00:40:49I bought the house.
00:40:52It's yours, Mommy.
00:40:53Oh, my God.
00:40:54Forever.
00:40:56No one can take it away from you.
00:40:59You don't have to worry about anything ever again.
00:41:03Oh, my God.
00:41:04My Mommy.
00:41:05Well, everything's just perfect now, isn't it?
00:41:09Eladio.
00:41:11Eladio!
00:41:14I love you.
00:41:15I love you, but I can't be sitting around waiting for you.
00:41:18You heard?
00:41:18Okay.
00:41:19You know how my job is.
00:41:21And I told you, you can come on the road with me.
00:41:24Yeah?
00:41:24I'm not gonna follow you around like a little pet, okay?
00:41:27I'm a man.
00:41:28I know.
00:41:28I know you are.
00:41:29And I need to work, okay?
00:41:31And I've been trying to be supportive.
00:41:34Let me tell you something.
00:41:36When you're gone, I feel like my only job is to wait on the phone.
00:41:40Hi.
00:41:41And I mean what?
00:41:42That's the only thing I've been doing these past few months.
00:41:45I'm surprised you remember it was my damn birthday.
00:41:49Yeah.
00:41:49I told you.
00:41:51I'm working.
00:41:52Mmm.
00:41:52I don't know how many times we have to have the same argument over and over again.
00:41:56Does working include letting a bunch of guys all up in your grill?
00:41:59What the hell are you talking about?
00:42:02Let them touch you.
00:42:03Feel all over you.
00:42:04Hmm?
00:42:05Is that what you like?
00:42:05Okay, I don't know where this is coming from, but you bugging me.
00:42:07Oh, yeah?
00:42:08I'm bugging?
00:42:11Stop, Javi.
00:42:12Wait, wait.
00:42:14What?
00:42:14What do you want?
00:42:15What do you want?
00:42:16What do you want from me?
00:42:18You wanna be with me?
00:42:18Of course.
00:42:22Then marry me.
00:42:25I love you.
00:42:27Okay?
00:42:27I do.
00:42:29But I don't want to sit here wondering if you're mine.
00:42:37Baby, I'm yours.
00:42:38Yeah.
00:42:39Then marry me.
00:42:40Marry me or I'll go home, pack my things and leave.
00:42:44Because as is, this isn't gonna work.
00:42:50It's your choice.
00:42:54Okay.
00:42:57Okay.
00:43:00Really?
00:43:01Let's get married.
00:43:04It's okay.
00:43:05What?
00:43:05What?
00:43:06We're getting married?
00:43:08Are you out of your mind?
00:43:09What is your problem?
00:43:10Lisa, you guys are 20 years old.
00:43:13How do either of you know what a commitment is?
00:43:16You guys are just two kids playing house.
00:43:19Don't do this.
00:43:20Wait until you're older and out of this game.
00:43:22You don't understand, Eladio.
00:43:24All the time it's the same thing.
00:43:25No, no, no.
00:43:25I understand plenty.
00:43:26You trust people when you shouldn't.
00:43:28Mommy, say something, por favor.
00:43:31Mamita, please.
00:43:33Why?
00:43:34Why do you want to get married so young?
00:43:37I love him, Mommy.
00:43:39Oh, you know it's love.
00:43:41Nana, you will find someone who will love you.
00:43:48You will.
00:43:50I saw it in my dreams.
00:43:52A man who will love you, who you will have children with.
00:43:59But it's not a hobby.
00:44:27Got it.
00:44:28Woo!
00:44:36Some guys will promise you a marriage made in heaven.
00:44:40But I'm gonna stick to my guns.
00:44:44Lisa, Lisa of Lisa, Lisa and the Colt Jam began simply as Lisa,
00:44:49a young Puerto Rican girl who dreamed of being a singing sensation.
00:44:52That dream started to come true in 1985 when the music producer group
00:44:57were looking for a female lead and stumbled across the 16-year-old singer.
00:45:02In that same year, they renamed the band Lisa, Lisa and Colt Jam,
00:45:06producing three top-selling hits which brought the band to platinum status.
00:45:13Both Lisa and the band attribute their success to their streetwise sound.
00:45:20Lisa, Lisa has been compared with other top-selling artists
00:45:22such as Debbie Gibson, Paula Abdul, and even Madonna.
00:45:27Their most recently released album is purposefully called
00:45:31Straight To The Top,
00:45:32a place where Lisa, Lisa and Colt Jam hope to be for a very long time.
00:45:38Man, I'm glad I ain't got no sisters.
00:45:41Wake up.
00:45:44There they are.
00:45:45I'm gonna learn some things, you know?
00:45:52Okay, listen, shaving is like farming.
00:45:56You better start with little strokes and go up each side.
00:46:00Like that.
00:46:02Can't believe you never did this before.
00:46:03Don't you have sisters?
00:46:07No.
00:46:09You got me now.
00:46:13Hello?
00:46:14Oh, hey babe.
00:46:16Of course, I'm in my hotel room.
00:46:18Where else would I be?
00:46:21Oh.
00:46:28Alright.
00:46:31Well, I'll be home in two weeks.
00:46:35Okay.
00:46:37I love you.
00:46:47He's going out with his boys again, huh?
00:46:50Yeah.
00:46:53It's the third time this week.
00:46:55I mean, I think it's funny, huh?
00:46:56He always wants to know where you're at.
00:46:57But you never ask him where he's going.
00:47:00No need.
00:47:01I trust him.
00:47:03Javi!
00:47:05I'm home!
00:47:16Baby!
00:47:39You were gone.
00:47:40Not okay.
00:47:44You don't have a bag or anything?
00:47:46Also, it has been a passe impediment.
00:47:46I really want to ask him.
00:47:46No need nothing.
00:47:46Yeah.
00:47:48I like my mask, myins' tied me...
00:47:48I've got aite preferable treasure,
00:47:50You know, if Barry finds out...
00:47:52I know.
00:47:56Are you sure it was positive?
00:47:58Like, does your mom know?
00:48:01What'd she say?
00:48:08She said not to have his child.
00:48:14She said that he reminded her of my dad,
00:48:16and reminded me what a mistake it was to marry him.
00:48:22I don't know.
00:48:27Maybe I loved him because I wanted a man to love me.
00:48:31My father didn't do it.
00:48:41Why don't you ever talk about your family?
00:48:47Ain't nothing to talk about.
00:48:52What do you do when you go back home? Where do you go?
00:48:54I got places.
00:48:58Look, I mean, most kids...
00:49:02Most kids have memories of being a kid.
00:49:05Like, happy memories of love and their parents and family, and...
00:49:10I just don't got that.
00:49:13And I'm okay with it.
00:49:16That's why I enjoy moments like this.
00:49:18Making new memories.
00:49:20Time with you.
00:49:22One of my best friends.
00:49:26One of your best friends?
00:49:27I better be at the top of that very short list.
00:49:31Miss Toni.
00:49:32That's why I should have never said nothing.
00:49:35Aw, you call me your best friend.
00:49:37You're so cheesy.
00:49:38That's why I don't open up to people, okay?
00:49:42Seriously, though.
00:49:44What are you gonna do?
00:49:48I can't have a baby.
00:49:51They'll lose everything, Toni.
00:49:53I'ma help you.
00:50:04Can you just...
00:50:05Can you just leave me alone for a bit?
00:50:24How to go.
00:50:25Yes, I know it.
00:50:34Hey, but you see Shorty over there?
00:50:36You think I'd get her a little drink?
00:50:37I mean, she look good, but I mean...
00:50:40It's up to you, really.
00:50:41Come on.
00:50:41Yo, what up, Toni?
00:50:42What's up?
00:50:43Damn.
00:50:44Girl, you look busted.
00:50:45You go get some sleep.
00:50:47Trying to, dude.
00:50:49Needed a little something.
00:50:51How's Lisa?
00:50:52I know she wasn't feeling well.
00:50:53She's good.
00:50:54You sure?
00:50:55Yeah, she's tired.
00:50:56That's all.
00:50:57So I think Javi's on the outs.
00:50:58Thank God.
00:51:00Hated that dude.
00:51:01Yo, what can I get for you?
00:51:03Bartender, let me get, um, uh...
00:51:04Let me get a whiskey.
00:51:06Double.
00:51:08Damn.
00:51:09You drink like a dude.
00:51:24You flirt like one, too.
00:51:28Excuse me, fellas.
00:51:30Got some business to take care of.
00:51:38Oh, no.
00:51:39Come on.
00:51:40Come on.
00:51:42Damn.
00:51:43Oh, Mike.
00:51:45Mike, man.
00:51:46She's stealing your girl.
00:51:47Again.
00:51:49I gotta use a baffle.
00:51:51Mary, snap it up.
00:51:53Why am I paying the tab on time?
00:51:56I got it, I guess.
00:52:02Hmm.
00:52:21Now, Lisa, it's important that you listen to what I have to say, okay?
00:52:27We just got your results back.
00:52:29And, uh, it says that you have ductal carcinoma breast cancer.
00:52:37You'll need to start treatment right away.
00:52:40I have work.
00:52:42No, I have to travel for a few concert dates.
00:52:45I'm afraid that's not possible.
00:52:47If you don't treat it now, the chances of it spreading rapidly increase.
00:52:51Limiting the chances of survival.
00:52:56Survival?
00:52:56Mm-hmm.
00:53:01I can't stop touring.
00:53:04I'll lose everything.
00:53:06Is there someone we can call?
00:53:07No.
00:53:08No one.
00:53:10No, no, I-I don't want anyone to know about this.
00:53:14Doctor, can we prepare a travel kit for her to do treatments?
00:53:19Yeah.
00:53:21I can coordinate with the hospitals in the city that she's traveling to, and we can monitor her that way.
00:53:26That works.
00:53:29We can start your treatment tomorrow.
00:53:33A word with you, please.
00:53:41That is my face. Do you understand?
00:53:46Okay, I understand.
00:53:47All right.
00:53:59Hey, Mamita.
00:54:02I know.
00:54:05If I stop touring, it all stops.
00:54:08The music, the sponsorships.
00:54:14And I just paid off my mom's car.
00:54:17Your house.
00:54:19You know, I took advancements to-
00:54:23I took advancements to make that happen.
00:54:26And I can't, I can't stop.
00:54:30My mommy, my mommy's just gonna-
00:54:33She was so happy.
00:54:35She was so happy.
00:54:39I can't stop.
00:54:40You understand?
00:54:41I can't stop.
00:54:42We're gonna fix it.
00:54:44We're gonna fix it so that you don't have to stop, okay?
00:54:48You're gonna be okay.
00:54:51You're gonna be okay.
00:54:53We're gonna pray for you.
00:54:55Here, mama.
00:54:56Here, here, take this.
00:54:58Oh, yes.
00:55:03You're gonna be okay.
00:55:08By the way, my daughter, she loves your music.
00:55:12Oh!
00:55:15She does.
00:55:17She looks up to you so much.
00:55:20A lot of little Latinas look up to you.
00:55:25Listen, mama.
00:55:27You got this, okay?
00:55:29You're gonna be okay.
00:55:33You hear me?
00:55:55Hey, come here.
00:55:57We need to have a meeting.
00:55:58I've been looking over at contracts and something seems off.
00:56:02You notice your pay?
00:56:04Uh, yeah, yeah, it's been a little life.
00:56:06I haven't thought about it.
00:56:07I'm exhausting.
00:56:08We'll talk about it later.
00:56:09Tony's sad that we should...
00:56:10Tony's not a part of this band.
00:56:14We need to have a conversation between us.
00:56:17And just us, Lisa.
00:56:18I gotta go, Mike.
00:56:20We need to do it soon!
00:56:24Look, I'm sick and tired, Alex.
00:56:26Tony!
00:56:27I'm done.
00:56:29What is this?
00:56:30It's your paycheck.
00:56:31Thought I'd hand delivery.
00:56:33Why?
00:56:34What do you want?
00:56:35You're not one to beat around the bush.
00:56:38Maybe you are.
00:56:39I wanted to ask about your friendship with Lisa.
00:56:43What am I friendship?
00:56:44The reporter was prying the other day, assuming she's a lesbian.
00:56:48You know, I corrected her, of course, but...
00:56:50Having those kinds of questions, it doesn't benefit anyone, does it?
00:56:57Back off, Lisa.
00:57:00You down?
00:57:02Yeah.
00:57:03Yeah, I think so.
00:57:04Thanks.
00:57:22Hey, you got a lighter on you?
00:57:24Yeah.
00:57:25Let's make time for a chat over the break.
00:57:29I don't want to see everything slip away over one person.
00:57:34We'll have lunch.
00:57:35Okay.
00:57:47You have a beer check?
00:57:50Okay.
00:57:59I'm gonna need an advance on those jobs, Rob.
00:58:02We're arranged.
00:58:03Sure.
00:58:03Got a few bills that popped up.
00:58:07Um...
00:58:07What upcoming jobs?
00:58:09I...
00:58:09I don't see anything.
00:58:10Oh, the commercial.
00:58:12I signed the paperwork a while back.
00:58:18Ah.
00:58:19Here it is.
00:58:22It seems like that deal fell through.
00:58:24What?
00:58:25Yeah.
00:58:26Did they say why?
00:58:27The client pulled out?
00:58:30No.
00:58:31No, that can be.
00:58:32I...
00:58:32I just spoke to them.
00:58:34I had a whole creative conversation about the commercial
00:58:38and what I wanted to do with it.
00:58:39I...
00:58:39They were excited about us.
00:58:43Look.
00:58:45I heard Barry said he didn't agree with the creative.
00:58:48And that was a deal breaker for them.
00:58:49Yeah.
00:58:49So, he turned down the commercial.
00:58:51Hmm.
00:58:54I'm so sick of this.
00:58:55I've had enough.
00:58:56Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:58:56Get your hands off of me.
00:58:58Mr. Barry.
00:59:00How dare you?
00:59:02Excuse me?
00:59:04We are the band.
00:59:06You don't turn down a job without letting all of us decide.
00:59:11Okay.
00:59:12This is how the industry works.
00:59:15You signed the contract.
00:59:18You belong to us.
00:59:20We decide what's best,
00:59:22or we find another band who'll accommodate us
00:59:25as we need them to do.
00:59:32Go home.
00:59:34Get some rest.
00:59:35You look like hell.
00:59:38Yeah.
00:59:39Hold on.
00:59:40Lisa!
00:59:43Remember,
00:59:44there's plenty of girls waiting in line to take your place.
00:59:49Hey.
00:59:51Hey, yeah, no.
00:59:52No, I just had to give someone a little attitude adjustment.
00:59:55Uh-huh.
00:59:57Do you have a phone I can use?
00:59:59Sure, baby.
01:00:04This room right here.
01:00:07Lucas.
01:00:09We gotta talk.
01:00:10I stopped by accounting.
01:00:12I pulled up all contracts.
01:00:14And?
01:00:15Barry and Rocco turned down that commercial.
01:00:18Man, what the hell are we gonna do?
01:00:20I think we should bring in Toni.
01:00:22She's done this before.
01:00:23She's a backup singer, period!
01:00:25Okay, do you have a problem without female schooling you?
01:00:26That's your problem.
01:00:27Knock it off!
01:00:28Both of you!
01:00:29We need to figure out how to get out of these contracts
01:00:31before we tear each other apart.
01:00:34They the bad guys, not us, man!
01:00:36Yeah.
01:00:37Right.
01:00:38I know a guy who's done this before.
01:00:41I'm gonna give him a call.
01:00:42Oh, so we can call Toni, but we can call a stranger we barely know.
01:00:46Great!
01:00:46Lovely!
01:00:47Please!
01:00:48We need to figure out what we're gonna do first before we'll let him know.
01:00:51Yeah?
01:00:52What?
01:00:54There's a few execs at the label that are concerned with your friendship with Toni.
01:00:57Who cares if I'm friends with Toni?
01:01:00You just listen to her way too much.
01:01:02You don't like the fact that I'm close to her?
01:01:04Or that she's gay?
01:01:05What?
01:01:05That's ridiculous.
01:01:06You know how many gay musicians are out there?
01:01:09A lot.
01:01:09You have a lot on your plate.
01:01:12We just don't need another voice in your head giving you advice.
01:01:16Yeah, come on, Lisa.
01:01:18This is our band.
01:01:19We started this together.
01:01:21Lisa, hey.
01:01:22I like Toni, okay?
01:01:25And I don't care what she does for her free time, you know, but...
01:01:30This...
01:01:31This could hurt us.
01:01:34No, it won't.
01:01:36Lisa...
01:01:36She's like a sister.
01:01:37She's my best friend.
01:01:40Come here.
01:01:41Time is money.
01:01:42Somebody do it.
01:01:43Do it.
01:01:44He can do it.
01:01:44Listen.
01:01:45Stop worrying about Toni.
01:01:47And start looking into the contracts and how we keep losing money because of these guys.
01:02:00I told you, we don't need her.
01:02:03She's wet.
01:02:04Don't stab at me like that.
01:02:05How to get out of these contracts before we tear each other apart.
01:02:08We need this to our band's best.
01:02:10Or we find another band who'll accommodate us as we need them to do.
01:02:14I'm a little pet, okay?
01:02:15I'm a man.
01:02:16There are plenty of girls waiting in line.
01:02:18We started this together.
01:02:19There's a few execs at the label that I can start with you for sure.
01:02:22I see how they know that.
01:02:26The band's here to take it to the mall.
01:02:28Lisa, come on.
01:02:29Yeah, I'll be right there.
01:02:31Lisa.
01:02:32What are you doing?
01:02:33Rocco says the place is packed.
01:02:35Thank you, Mia.
01:02:37I'm here.
01:02:38You're not me.
01:02:39It's Lisa.
01:02:39You're ready.
01:02:40Yeah, I said I'll be right there.
01:02:42Thank you so much for coming.
01:02:50This is a great turnout.
01:02:57I can't do this anymore.
01:02:59What?
01:03:00I need a break.
01:03:01All right.
01:03:02You'll get a break soon, I promise.
01:03:03No, now!
01:03:04Girl, you better calm down.
01:03:05No.
01:03:06I said you'll get a break.
01:03:08All right?
01:03:09The sooner you start, the sooner you'll finish.
01:03:12Get back to work.
01:03:18Hey, I'm sorry about that.
01:03:24That should never happen, but, you know.
01:03:29That's right.
01:03:31Hi.
01:03:31Thank you so much for your patience.
01:03:36Oh, this is such a great thing, Charlotte.
01:03:38Come on, Lisa.
01:03:38I've been waiting all day.
01:03:39Hey, can I please get a kiss?
01:03:40I'm sorry.
01:03:41No, it's not a kiss, okay?
01:03:42Fine, come on.
01:03:43Lisa, please, fine.
01:03:43Sorry, just an autograph.
01:03:44I said no, man.
01:03:46Tony!
01:03:47Oh, we good?
01:03:47We good?
01:03:49What the hell are you doing, Tony?
01:03:51What?
01:03:51You can't be like dudes get all grabby like that.
01:03:53These are fans.
01:03:54They're the reason why we're here.
01:03:55We can't be handling things like this.
01:03:57What the hell is that supposed to mean?
01:03:58It means how we gotta be more thoughtful,
01:04:00how you handle situations, don't we?
01:04:02Not everything is a confrontation.
01:04:04What the hell is the matter with you?
01:04:06You've never had an issue before, all right?
01:04:08You look tired, and I mean...
01:04:10Okay, you're one to talk.
01:04:12You know what?
01:04:13I don't need this, all right?
01:04:15Because all I was doing was making sure you were all right
01:04:17like I always do.
01:04:18Oh, you don't!
01:04:19Don't check on me for once.
01:04:21I already have a brother.
01:04:23I don't need another one hovering over me.
01:04:25Oh, you're three of them.
01:04:46You good?
01:04:48Yeah.
01:04:50I'm good.
01:04:51Just tired.
01:04:54I know.
01:04:56What's going on?
01:05:06Oh, man.
01:05:08Riding in style.
01:05:09That's nice.
01:05:09Look at this, man.
01:05:13What is lame-ass Tony riding with us to the show for?
01:05:15I don't know, man.
01:05:16Ask Lisa.
01:05:17I will.
01:05:18What you asking me for?
01:05:20Got a mind reader?
01:05:29Why aren't you listening to Rocco?
01:05:31The label doesn't want her around, and she's messing with our money.
01:05:33I invited her, Mike.
01:05:35Yeah, and that's the problem.
01:05:36We keep making all these decisions without consulting the group.
01:05:38And we're sick and tired of it.
01:05:40Right, Alex?
01:05:41Guys, listen.
01:05:42Like, I'm a lover, not a fighter, all right?
01:05:43Can we just talk about it later?
01:05:45Right now, we just need to focus.
01:05:46No, we can't talk about it later.
01:05:48I was going to keep this between just us.
01:05:52But I had a lawyer look over everything.
01:05:54And those contracts that we signed,
01:05:56for Rocco in charge of everything.
01:05:58He screwed us.
01:06:00Nah, you screwed yourself.
01:06:02I already told you, the music game.
01:06:04You either hustle, or you get hustled.
01:06:06And you got hustled.
01:06:09Yeah.
01:06:10Just like your daddy be hustling you, right?
01:06:12Who the hell are you talking to?
01:06:13I'm talking to you.
01:06:13I'm talking to you.
01:06:14I'm talking to you.
01:06:14Chill.
01:06:17Back your ass up.
01:06:19You need to be out of here.
01:06:20Now, chill out.
01:06:21Stop.
01:06:21Mike, stop dissing her.
01:06:25This is the biggest night of our careers,
01:06:27and you guys are wild and in a damn car?
01:06:40Man, what are we going to do about these contracts?
01:06:42Nothing.
01:06:42What do you mean, nothing?
01:06:43Those contracts are signed.
01:06:45We signed them.
01:06:47I just bought my mom a house,
01:06:49my brother a car I'm paying for my sister's college.
01:06:52That can all go away tomorrow like that.
01:06:56Let's just ride this wave until we can renegotiate.
01:06:59Because I ain't going back to folding sweaters in the stockroom.
01:07:02You hear me?
01:07:07Help myself, make me feel so right.
01:07:13I got to, got to tell you, darling.
01:07:16Ooh, baby, I think I love you from head to toe.
01:07:24I think I love you from head to toe.
01:07:33You can't fight everybody, Tony.
01:07:35You're lucky Barry wasn't there.
01:07:37Me?
01:07:37I don't care about Barry.
01:07:39All right?
01:07:39He's the one that started.
01:07:40Stop.
01:07:41Stop.
01:07:42I can't handle this.
01:07:43Handle what?
01:07:44The truth?
01:07:45I've been saying the same thing over and over and over.
01:07:47Now what's happening?
01:07:49Now what's the problem?
01:07:50What is up with you?
01:07:51You've been acting different from once now.
01:07:53You never acted like this.
01:07:55I always kept it real with you.
01:07:57He, in fact, has been talking to me crazy,
01:07:59and I'm not going to keep around with it.
01:08:00Maybe you don't know what the hell you're talking about, Tony.
01:08:03Okay.
01:08:04Maybe I can stick up for myself.
01:08:07Do it.
01:08:11The rise of hip-hop and electronic dance music
01:08:13is forcing the freestyle genre to fade.
01:08:34I'll be back in a minute to check on you.
01:08:40It's Lisa.
01:08:40Lisa.
01:08:42Hi.
01:09:04She's killing it, right?
01:09:05Now let's see what you got.
01:09:09Yeah, that's it.
01:09:11Nah, keep going.
01:09:16What's up?
01:09:18I stopped by to get my chick.
01:09:19I didn't know when he was rehearsing.
01:09:21Who was that?
01:09:22She's so cute.
01:09:24Tony!
01:09:27Do you have a minute?
01:09:28Yeah.
01:09:29Come on, me in a bit.
01:09:38Give me a minute.
01:09:42I'm tan super.
01:09:44Go on.
01:09:44Let's go.
01:10:26I need a job, man.
01:10:31Is that all you need?
01:10:37Hey!
01:10:40I told you.
01:10:43You'll be back.
01:10:47You'll be back.
01:10:51This love we have could be real.
01:10:54Let me show you how I feel.
01:10:59Oh, boy.
01:11:01We can make it, we can make it work.
01:11:05Hey, that was good.
01:11:06I want to do it one more time, okay?
01:11:07Great job.
01:11:08Hey, look who's back.
01:11:10It's so good to see you, Lisa.
01:11:14You look terrible.
01:11:16You're not pregnant, right?
01:11:17Shut up, Spanador.
01:11:19Who's that?
01:11:22That is...
01:11:25Spanador?
01:11:27Mike.
01:11:28Mike!
01:11:30Lisa, hear me out.
01:11:32Where's Tony?
01:11:35Where's Tony?
01:11:38Lisa!
01:11:42I told you.
01:11:48Barry!
01:11:50I'm gonna have to call you back.
01:11:52What happened to Tony?
01:11:54I was gonna explain it to you.
01:11:56Who the hell stepped to let her go?
01:11:57It was a group decision.
01:11:58I'm a part of this group.
01:12:01Tony's toxic, okay?
01:12:03She's violent.
01:12:04We do not need an individual like that on the road.
01:12:07She's a liability.
01:12:08I need her.
01:12:08I need her on the road.
01:12:10I want her back.
01:12:11No.
01:12:12What?
01:12:13It was a management decision.
01:12:15I'll just go bring her back here.
01:12:16You know, if you go after her,
01:12:18I have to believe that you are not serious about your career.
01:12:22You could lose everything you have worked for.
01:12:26And for what?
01:12:28Some lesbian?
01:12:30How dare you?
01:12:32What does it matter who she sleeps with or who she is?
01:12:38You don't like Tony because she sees through your lives.
01:12:42Mm-hmm.
01:12:44You don't like her because she teaches me about snakes like you.
01:12:49I'm not gonna go on without her.
01:12:53Period.
01:12:54Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:12:55You're from the ghetto.
01:12:57You never graduated from high school.
01:12:59You cannot make it in this business without someone like me.
01:13:11Watch me.
01:13:26Have you seen Tony?
01:13:27I'm sorry, girls.
01:13:28I can't write you.
01:13:31Lisa?
01:13:32Why are you looking for Tony?
01:13:35Is she using again?
01:13:36I didn't know she used.
01:13:37You don't want to know she used.
01:13:41Maybe not.
01:13:42Well, Pops, she's using again.
01:13:44She'll be with him.
01:13:44He's a drug addict pimp.
01:13:46Living somewhere in the projects.
01:13:48If you find him, you'll find her.
01:13:51Thanks.
01:13:52Hey, Lisa.
01:13:53You gotta save her.
01:13:55If she stays in the projects,
01:13:56she'll end up just like her father.
01:13:59Music's all she has.
01:14:03Can we just get an autograph?
01:14:05Get out of the way!
01:14:05Hey, Lisa.
01:14:06Be careful.
01:14:08Project's no place for a girl after sunset.
01:14:12Yo.
01:14:13I don't think she's breathing.
01:14:15She'll be all right.
01:14:18I don't know, B.
01:14:19We need to do something.
01:14:21This your daughter, man.
01:14:23It's a grown-ass woman.
01:14:25She ain't did nothing she ain't want to do.
01:14:27Tony!
01:14:28The hell is that?
01:14:29Tony!
01:14:29Are you here?
01:14:31Hey, get the peace now.
01:14:32Hold me down.
01:14:34What the hell are you doing here?
01:14:38You hear me talking to you?
01:14:40Tony.
01:14:40Tony.
01:14:41Tony.
01:14:41Hey!
01:14:42Tony!
01:14:43Tony!
01:14:43Tony!
01:14:44No, no.
01:14:45Get up.
01:14:46Get up.
01:14:47She's barely breathing.
01:14:49She ain't going nowhere.
01:14:54She's gonna die.
01:14:56We all gotta go sometime.
01:14:58But you?
01:14:59You ain't going nowhere, Bodequa.
01:15:09There are off-duty police officers waiting for me outside.
01:15:14If they come over here, and they spot that pile of cocaine you got there,
01:15:20they're gonna pick you up for the multiple warrants you probably have,
01:15:24and you will die in prison.
01:15:26You hear me?
01:15:35Don't get outside.
01:15:39Having babies don't make you a father.
01:15:42Caring for them does.
01:15:45You ain't no father.
01:15:48Hey, Bodequa.
01:15:50Don't ever let her come back here.
01:16:01Come here.
01:16:15What day is it?
01:16:17Tuesday.
01:16:19You've been out all night.
01:16:25Oh, this?
01:16:30It's the latest in accessories.
01:16:32The chemo pack.
01:16:36I've had her for a while.
01:16:40Doc told me after...
01:16:43Javi and I split up.
01:16:49But why?
01:16:50Why didn't you say anything?
01:16:53I didn't tell anyone, because I was...
01:16:58Because I was scared.
01:17:01Scared of what?
01:17:03Scared of losing everything.
01:17:06You know, when I was a kid,
01:17:09I would stand on a chair in the kitchen
01:17:12and just dream I was on a stage singing.
01:17:17You know, that I was the one coming out of Radio City Music Hall in a limo.
01:17:24And that I would take care of Mommy
01:17:26and that I would make Belalio proud.
01:17:30They'd see me all successful.
01:17:36For a while, it felt like everything we were living
01:17:42was that dream.
01:17:46And the moment anyone said cancer, I would...
01:17:52I would just lose it all.
01:17:57That everything would be gone.
01:17:59You know, the tour, the bands, the money.
01:18:05You...
01:18:08I was terrified of losing you.
01:18:12And I was so angry at you.
01:18:17Why did you do that?
01:18:21I once...
01:18:24I asked a junkie...
01:18:28How did he start getting high?
01:18:31This guy was a track star.
01:18:33He...
01:18:34I don't know, he ended up...
01:18:37strung out in the projects most nights.
01:18:40But he said when you...
01:18:42spend your life...
01:18:45being numb...
01:18:48drugs help you to feel something.
01:18:51And I guess I just...
01:18:53I just wanted to feel something.
01:18:55I mean, selling rock for my pops,
01:18:58it was never about the money.
01:19:00I just wanted him to love me.
01:19:06Tony...
01:19:06I guess I just...
01:19:09I gotta accept the fact that he'll never be able to do that.
01:19:15You can't force anyone to love you the way you want.
01:19:21I know that.
01:19:23Now.
01:19:26Do you?
01:19:36You're my best friend.
01:19:39My sister, my family.
01:19:43I don't ever want to lose you.
01:19:46Do you ever lose me?
01:19:48You got that?
01:19:52Then no more secrets.
01:19:57No more secrets.
01:19:59Because sisters don't keep secrets.
01:20:04Okay?
01:20:08No more secrets.
01:20:10I think there's one more person you need to tell her.
01:20:16Lisa!
01:20:17Ay, yo, mio!
01:20:23It's been so long since I've seen you, baby.
01:20:28What are you doing here?
01:20:29I'm sorry, Mommy.
01:20:32I've been busy.
01:20:34I have so much to tell you.
01:20:36But...
01:20:36What are you doing Saturday night?
01:21:02We did it, Mom.
01:21:05We did it, Mom.
01:21:06Yes, we did.
01:21:29We did it, Mom.
01:21:32Hi, Mommy.
01:21:34Hi, baby.
01:21:35I got you seats in the front row.
01:21:40We'll eat after, yeah?
01:21:41Mm-hmm.
01:21:43Yeah.
01:21:46Hi, baby.
01:21:48So cute.
01:21:53Yeah?
01:21:57It's time.
01:22:02I'll see you later.
01:22:03Yeah.
01:22:06Hey.
01:22:07I got you something.
01:22:11What?!
01:22:13I thought I lost them!
01:22:15It was in some of the boxes from when you moved.
01:22:18I figured you might need it, since you never went anywhere without them.
01:22:34Lisa?
01:22:37It's not that I didn't think you could take the D train alone, or pay for Mama's bills.
01:22:45Or do all of this.
01:22:49I just...
01:22:51I wanted to be the one to do that for you.
01:22:56So you didn't have it as tough as I did.
01:22:59I just...
01:23:01I wanted to be the one to take care of my little sister.
01:23:09I know.
01:23:11And if I never told you this...
01:23:15I've never been more proud of anyone in my entire life.
01:23:19I love you, sis.
01:23:23I love you!
01:23:24Oh, yeah, no.
01:23:24Oh, my God.
01:23:38T-Cup, T-Cup, T-Cup, T-Cup, T-Cup, T-Cup, T-Cup.
01:23:47Hello, New York.
01:23:49Are you ready for that?
01:23:51Can you feel the big bit in my heart?
01:23:53Can you see my love shine through the dark?
01:23:59Can you feel the big bit in my heart?
01:24:01Can you see my love shine through the dark?
01:24:03Can you see that you must be a part of that beat in my heart?
01:24:09That beat in my heart.
01:24:20I'm Lisa.
01:24:22Cooley.
01:24:23Yeah.
01:24:27Let me hear you scream.
01:24:46After all that we've been through, I can't seem to face the fact that, boy, I'm losing you.
01:24:55We're going to do this my way, or not at all.
01:24:59My heart has overruled my mind.
01:25:01I've tried not to let it show.
01:25:05Now I don't know what to do.
01:25:07I tell myself I'm lying.
01:25:09Don't you have sisters?
01:25:11No.
01:25:11You got me now.
01:25:12My heart has double B's for you.
01:25:15Woo!
01:25:16Woo!
01:25:17Woo!
01:25:17Woo!
01:25:17Woo!
01:25:20Woo!
01:25:42I don't ever want to be a part of that beat in my heart.
01:25:43Can you feel the big wheels in my heart?
01:25:47Can you see my love shine through the dark?
01:25:49Can you see that you must be a part of that beat in my heart?
01:25:52Tony.
01:25:52Tony.
01:25:53Get up.
01:25:54Get up.
01:25:55That beat in my heart.
01:25:59That beat.
01:26:00Let's go!
01:26:10You're my best friend.
01:26:11I don't ever want to lose you.
01:26:19You want to know about my life?
01:26:23Well, here you go.
01:26:24This is how you'll be back, and you'll be back again.
01:26:34Oh, yeah.
01:26:36You'll be back.
01:26:38Fly, fly away.
01:26:44Oh, yeah, yeah.
01:26:46You'll be back someday.
01:26:51You'll be back someday.
01:26:53You come back someday.
01:26:56It will raise your hand.
01:27:01It will be a pain.
01:27:03Oh, oh, oh
01:27:46Oh, oh, oh
01:27:48Oh, oh, oh, oh
01:27:50Oh, oh, oh, oh
01:27:50Oh, oh, oh
