00:00:21And you don't stop, and you don't quit.
00:00:27Now I'm a man with a plan in the b-boy stance, and all the ladies in the jam know
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.
00:00:55You don't want to stop me, and you don't want to do it.
00:00:57If you don't want to stop me, and you don't want to stop me.
00:01:05Hey! You're going to stop?
00:01:08We don't want to stop, stop!
00:01:09What? No, no, we don't want to stop!
00:01:11Leave her alone, leave her alone.
00:01:14Oh, Judy, look at her.
00:01:15This is your fault.
00:01:17No!
00:01:19No tongue, sir.
00:01:21It's your fault.
00:01:22I'm going to kill you!
00:01:24Stop!
00:01:26Stop!
00:01:28Stop!
00:01:29He's hurting your mommy!
00:01:31No!
00:01:31Call the cops!
00:01:32No!
00:01:33I won't do that to your father!
00:01:52No!
00:01:59Man, I hate moving.
00:02:01Daddy's going to be pissed that we're gone.
00:02:02Hey, grab those boxes and put them in the living room.
00:02:04We've got to get the truck back in an hour, so hurry up.
00:02:08Take those damn headphones off.
00:02:10Didn't you learn your lesson about having those things on?
00:02:11You're not my father. You weren't even there.
00:02:13Why do you think we're moving now? And I was working.
00:02:15Yeah, you're always working, Eladio.
00:02:17Because I've got to.
00:02:18Maybe 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?
00:02:23You?
00:02:25I do what I got to to help mommy.
00:02:27And the best way you can help is to stop daydreaming
00:02:30and think about how you can pitch in around here.
00:02:32I'm not going to have mommy working three jobs
00:02:33while you're in La La Land.
00:02:35If you're leaving, let me go.
00:02:45Hey!
00:02:46Hey, girl, bitch.
00:02:52I'm a idiot!
00:02:52You don't think it's missing anything.
00:02:53The only Midwestern's scriptures deal in the date is to mess.
00:02:53What did you do?
00:02:55How is it gonna bomb?
00:02:56Hey, buddy, baby
00:03:00did you tell me this person on?
00:03:12If you don't want it all, I don't want nothing at all.
00:03:21If you don't want it all, I don't want nothing at all.

00:07:22What do you want?
00:07:30Hell no
00:07:31Jellybean's always got any funny talent
00:07:32Besides, 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 gonna be into him?
00:07:38Just pretend it's an extra long trip in the stop room
00:07:40Is your brother even gonna 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?

00:08:36Coming from a far land where they never stayed
00:08:38They don't ever contested, they're too afraid
00:08:40But I'm rocking the road so let me bless the mic
00:08:42While the DJ's crashing like an innocent fight
00:08:44From the west, the east, the north to the south
00:08:46When I step into the front, people stand on the couch
00:08:48Just wanna have a good time, but people are just fine
00:08:50All I need is 30 seconds, I'm gonna rock my ground
00:08:52Is 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

00:16:41Leave me in the head
00:16:43Feeling high
00:16:51Yeah
00:16:52What about Hell's Kitchen's Trio?
00:16:54Wow
00:16:54No, that sounds like my
00:16:55Willow's band
00:16:56Or something like that
00:16:57I didn't think you could get
00:16:58Any worse than your last suggestion
00:17:00But what?
00:17:01It's got to be slick
00:17:02It's got to be
00:17:02You know, something that screams
00:17:03We're all about culture
00:17:04Hip-hop
00:17:05And music
00:17:07And that we can jam
00:17:08Yeah

00:17:14I got it
00:17:16Lisa and coat jam
00:17:18Okay
00:17:19I'm feeling it
00:17:20Alright, but
00:17:20It needs that extra flavor, you know
00:17:22Because
00:17:23Lisa ain't your everyday girl
00:17:25That's what I'm saying
00:17:28She's not
00:17:30Nah, Lisa
00:17:32Ain't your everyday girl
00:17:33She's uniquely blessed
00:17:34How about

00:17:48I'm down
00:17:49We got a name
00:17:51Lisa, Lisa
00:17:52And coat 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
00:18:07Because I need you tonight

00:18:37Tour?
00:18:39Let's not get ahead of ourselves
00:18:41Typically
00:18:42We test the song
00:18:43See how it lands
00:18:45In different markets
00:18:46Before
00:18:47We actually sign an artist
00:18:49How do you do that?
00:18:51We send the record
00:18:52To a few friendly DJs
00:18:54In the UK
00:18:54And we'll be right back
00:18:56With Radio FM UK
00:19:03The label better not have sent me rubbish
00:19:05Like the last time
00:19:06That was pure
00:19:08Yank
00:19:10Nonsense
00:19:10I mean if it hits
00:19:11We start talking contracts
00:19:13If not
00:19:14You know
00:19:15The music world is littered
00:19:17With one hit wonders
00:19:19Who is this again, mate?
00:19:23A lot of them crash and burn
00:19:25Don't worry
00:19:26Rocco here
00:19:27Is gonna make sure
00:19:29Everything runs smoothly
00:19:30Isn't that right, Rocco?
00:19:31Yep
00:19:31So it's my job
00:19:32To book you gigs
00:19:33Find the producers
00:19:34And work on promotions
00:19:36Hey, mommy
00:19:37Did you find it all right?
00:19:40Hello, man
00:19:43Hello, mom
00:19:44Pleasure to meet you
00:19:46Me too
00:19:46Barry Connor
00:19:47I just have a few papers
00:19:49That 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, turn it back on, bro?
00:19:59Maybe
00:20:00You know
00:20:02That we can't proceed
00:20:04Unless she signs, right?
00:20:05I mean, it's just too much risk
00:20:07With an underage artist
00:20:08So
00:20:09Walk her through it
00:20:10Okay?
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 artists usually sign as is
00:20:19Oh, cool
00:20:23Let's run this
00:20:24A little beat
00:20:30Please, mommy
00:20:32No
00:20:33I don't know him
00:20:35I don't know what I'm signing
00:20:36What if something happens?
00:20:38Nothing is gonna happen
00:20:39I do, nana
00:20:40I see how they look at you
00:20:42I know what these men want
00:20:44And it's not just your voice
00:20:46No, you don't know what they want, mommy
00:20:47Mira
00:20:48Lisa
00:20:50Everything okay?
00:20:51Yeah
00:20:52Yeah, we're almost done
00:20:55I mean, I'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
00:21:10To never count on someone
00:21:12To take care of me
00:21:15You said to do it yourself
00:21:18So this is me
00:21:20Doing it myself
00:21:44All right, we need to get you guys back in the studio right away
00:21:48Contracts are signed
00:21:51To go home
00:21:53Celebrate
00:21:54Tomorrow
00:21:54We get to work
00:21:56Come on

00:22:03Can I talk to you a second?
00:22:05Yeah
00:22:06There's a lot of work, time, and money
00:22:08That goes into making you a star
00:22:10I need to make sure
00:22:11I'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
00:22:24I don't need a pregnant teenager on the road
00:22:27Well, you don't have to worry about me, Miss Akana

00:23:38The 160th day of 1982
00:23:40In case you're coming
00:23:41In time that some people
00:23:42Were reminded that actors are people

00:26:50Well, I'm great
00:26:50I'm very excited to be here
00:26:51And how does it feel
00:26:53To 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

00:27:16Right, sure
00:27:22Got a line on a gig
00:27:24Word, an audition
00:27:26New band looking for backup singers
00:27:29Man, I'm not backup?
00:27:30Tony, no
00:27:31But look where you are
00:27:34It's gotta be this game
00:27:37Hey
00:27:38You wanna spend your whole life
00:27:39Looking over your shoulder?
00:27:40Just cause it didn't work out last time
00:27:42Doesn'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
00:27:53Takes time
00:27:56Think about it
00:28:00Alright
00:28:01Peace
00:28:02Peace
00:28:07You ain't backup
00:28:08I ain't backup

00:28:15Thank you
00:28:15Figure it out
00:28:17Sponidor
00:28:17We're just gonna go with number two
00:28:18No, 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
00:28:24Bro, we 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
00:28:28But not one of them blend with our sound
00:28:30Word
00:28:31What do we do, Alex?
00:28:32We're going tour in a month
00:28:33Well, we keep searching
00:28:34We already behind on schedule
00:28:37We either pick a team today
00:28:38Or we push
00:28:40The label not waiting on us
00:28:43We got bands lined up right now
00:28:45That's ready to go
00:28:46Alright, 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
00:28:49I'll find you a whole lot of girls
00:28:51Who can sing best use
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?
00:28:56No, we're not going with number two
00:28:56It's all good
00:28:57Are we going with number two?
00:28:58Staring out the window
00:29:00Hoping to catch you walking by
00:29:03Staring out the window
00:29:06I think I've seen Riley and Mark
00:29:07While these tears broke down my eyes
00:29:09Staring out the window
00:29:12Just can't believe it's done and gone
00:29:15Staring out the window
00:29:22Thank you
00:29:30Hey
00:29:32Pack your bags, folks
00:29:33Because we're going on tour
00:29:37Cigarettes don't affect your voice?
00:29:39No
00:29:39I mean, they actually give it a little raspy bass
00:29:42I don't mind having it
00:29:43Those things will kill you, you know
00:29:44Well, whenever the government comes out with a study
00:29:46Saying these are bad for you
00:29:47I'll stop
00:29:50I'm Lisa
00:29:52Tony
00:29:53How long you been singing it for?
00:29:55I grew up singing on street corners
00:29:57Yeah, me too
00:30:00Listen, you know
00:30:02It's not going to be what you think it is, right?
00:30:05What's that?
00:30:06In this music industry
00:30:08You know, it's just like the streets
00:30:10Use it or it'll use you
00:30:11So you've got to watch yourself
00:30:13Everybody's going to try to take a piece of you
00:30:14And you can't let them
00:30:16Yeah, where are you going?
00:30:18Look, I mean
00:30:20Most of these dudes want a backup singer
00:30:21That's something to look at
00:30:22And 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
00:30:35They'll mess up with your boys
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
00:30:58Yeah, baby
00:31:00A little longer, okay?
00:31:01You gotta go
00:31:03Come on
00:31:06I mean, what's this about?
00:31:08Come on, you know
00:31:09Baby, no, no, no
00:31:11They're going to have to, you know
00:31:13Check my makeup again
00:31:14Stop
00:31:15I thought we had dinner plans tonight
00:31:17Yo, this city's so crazy sometimes
00:31:20Almost it's a scrap
00:31:21With a bunch of teenagers
00:31:22Excuse me
00:31:23Okay
00:31:23Signatures
00:31:24Okay
00:31:25More promotional tours
00:31:27Means 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
00:31:40So, you know, you could sneak it in
00:31:43Well, I was supposed to go home after this set
00:31:47I haven't seen my family in a year
00:31:49This is a national commercial
00:31:52It's a lot of money
00:31:54I just...
00:31:55It'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, I 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
00:32:19I want to help with the set design
00:32:21And 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, are we ready or what?
00:32:40In a minute, baby
00:32:41The record label needs you, alright?
00:32:43This is not the other way around
00:32:44Alright, perfect
00:32:45You know what?
00:32:46I want to go
00:32:47Hurry up
00:32:48Hold on, man

00:32:52Look at the camera
00:32:53Three, two, one
00:32:58Perfect, perfect
00:32:58Hold on, Lisa, Lisa, Lisa
00:32:59Alright, hold on
00:33:00Can I get an idea, please?

00:33:04House kitchen trio, bro
00:33:05Are you for her?
00:33:06Y'all, let me...
00:33:07No
00:33:07Alright, 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 can say it to my face
00:33:13I'm talking to Lisa
00:33:14What's your problem?
00:33:15The problem is
00:33:16We don't need any more voices
00:33:17Offering their opinions
00:33:18On 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
00:33:26I wanted to flash, man
00:33:26Nobody want to see you
00:33:28With no spandex
00:33:30You know, we're just
00:33:30Going to focus on
00:33:31A few shots of Lisa alone
00:33:33Why don't you guys
00:33:34Go to craft service
00:33:35Grab a coffee
00:33:39Hey, yo
00:33:40This was your band, Mike
00:33:42We got two little girls
00:33:43Telling you what to do
00:33:44And one is just the background, Sam
00:33:46Oh, I used to host
00:33:48And play that I was by
00:33:49I don't know
00:33:50I don't know
00:33:51I don't know
00:33:51I don't know
00:33:52I don't know
00:33:55I don't know
00:33:55Come on
00:33:55Wait a second
00:33:57Wait a second
00:33:57Okay, okay
00:33:58Okay, okay

00:34:00You're good?
00:34:00You're good
00:34:11Okay, okay
00:34:12Of course, I just want to make sure you know that we're a band.
00:34:17I know Lisa's gonna 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.
00:34:32All right. Is that all?
00:34:40Yeah. Good 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!
00:34:54Hit the beat now.
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 close, Tony. We close.
00:35:03Nah, we got it, we got it.
00:35:09Sounding good, sounding good.

00:35:31We're playing in bigger venues.
00:35:33You guys gonna 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.
00:35:48Get out of here. See you tomorrow.
00:35:50Wait.
00:35:52Hey, I'm gonna go to the county.

00:35:53All right.
00:35:54Hey, uh, 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, um, take a look at it later.
00:36:27I should probably get over.
00:36:28Hey.
00:36:31I don't 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.
00:36:42Huh?
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.

00:37:19Yeah.
00:37:21You sure?
00:37:22I said I'm good.

00:37:24Right, right.
00:37:25Whatever.
00:37:25Jeez.
00:37:27Oh, my God.

00:38:09Oh, yeah!
00:38:10Yeah!
00:38:11Bye!
00:38:13But you had something in mind for us.
00:38:17Ooh!
00:38:18When I look into your eyes, I can't stop the rhythm.
00:38:23Should've known it only was a daydream.
00:38:28What did I expect?
00:38:32Giving you my heart.
00:38:34And just playing...
00:38:35Lisa!
00:38:36Can I do an autograph?
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 thanks.
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?

00:39:02So nice to meet you.
00:39:03Bye.
00:39:07Wow.
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!
00:39:24Hi, Mom.
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, I'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, I can't believe this.
00:39:50Did you see what Lisa bought me?
00:39:52Oh, my God.
00:39:53Why did you do this?
00:39:53You know we were all saving up the bitch in and buy her car.
00:39:56I know.
00:39:56I just wanted to do this for her.
00:39:57No, no.
00:39:58That's not the point.
00:39:59Ay, Eladio.
00:40:00Why 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 God.
00:40:15Look at her.
00:40:15Just let her have this.
00:40:20Mommy, look at this.
00:40:22The power's here.
00:40:24Oh, and check the glove company.
00:40:26Yeah.
00:40:34What is that?
00:40:36This...
00:40:36This 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 gotta worry about anything ever again.
00:41:03Oh, my God.
00:41:04Ay, 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.
00:41:40Mommy!
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.
00:41:52I 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?
00:42:01You let 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.
00:42:12Javi, wait, 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?
00:42:19Of course.
00:42:22Marry me.
00:42:26I love you.
00:42:27Okay?
00:42:27I do.
00:42:29I 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.
00:42:51It's a choice.
00:42:54Okay.
00:42:57Okay.
00:43:00Really?
00:43:01Let's get married.
00:43:04It's okay.
00:43:04What?
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.
00:43:14How 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.
00:43:25I understand plenty.
00:43:26You trust people when you shouldn't.
00:43:28Mami.
00:43:29Say 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, Mami.
00:43:39Oh, you know it's love.
00:43:42Nana.
00:43:43You 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.
00:43:54Who you will have children with.
00:43:59But it's not Javi.
00:44:05Marcia, you're married.
00:44:09My turn.
00:44:10My friend.
00:44:14My friend is really fair.
00:44:15My friend is really fair.
00:44:16You're right.
00:44:20You're right.
00:44:21I love you.
00:44:44Lisa Lisa of Lisa Lisa and the Colt Jam began simply as Lisa, a young Puerto Rican girl who
00:44:51dreamed of being a singing sensation. That dream started to come true in 1985 when the music
00:44:57produced a group when looking for a female lead and stumbled across the 16-year-old
00:45:01singing. In that same year they renamed the band Lisa Lisa and Colt Jam producing
00:45:07three top-selling hits which brought the band to platinum status. Both Lisa and the
00:45:14band attribute their success to their streetwise sound.
00:45:20Lisa Lisa has been compared with other top-selling artists such as Debbie
00:45:23Gibson, Paula Abdul, and even Madonna. Their most recently released album is
00:45:30purposefully called Straight to the Top, a place where Lisa Lisa and Colt Jam hope to
00:45:35be for a very long time.
00:45:38Man I'm glad I ain't got no sisters. Wake up. There they are.
00:45:52Okay, listen. Shaving is like farming. You better start with little strokes and go up each
00:45:59side. Like that. Can't believe you never did this before. Don't you have sisters?
00:46:09No. You got me now. Hello? Oh hey babe. Of course I'm in my hotel room. Where else would I
00:46:18be?

00:46:47He's going out with his boys again, huh? Yeah.
00:46:54It's the third time this week. I mean I think it's funny how he always wants to know where you're
00:46:57at but you never ask him where he's going.
00:46:59No need. I trust him.
00:47:03Javi! I'm home!
00:47:15Baby!

00:48:08she said not to have his child
00:48:14she said that he reminded her of my dad and
00:48:18and 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

00:56:05It's been a little life.
00:56:06I haven't thought about it.
00:56:07I'm exhausting.
00:56:08Can we talk about it later?
00:56:09Tony said 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 of this, Alex.
00:56:26Tony.
00:56:27I'm done.
00:56:29What is this?
00:56:30It's your paycheck.
00:56:31I thought 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.
00:56:43My 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 having those kinds of questions, it doesn't benefit anyone.
00:56:54It doesn't.
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.
00:57:47Here for your check.
00:57:49Okay.
00:58:00I'm going to need an advance on those jobs, Rob.
00:58:02What do you have arranged?
00:58:03Sure.
00:58:03Got a few bills that built up.
00:58:05Um, what upcoming jobs?
00:58:09I don't see anything.
00:58:10Oh, the commercial.
00:58:12I signed the paperwork a while back.
00:58:18Ah, here 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 just spoke to them.
00:58:34I had a whole creative conversation about the commercial and what I wanted to do with it.
00:58:39They were excited about us.
00:58:44Look, I heard Barry said he didn't agree with the creative and that was a deal breaker for
00:58:49them, so 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 or we find another band who will accommodate us as 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, there's plenty of girls waiting in line to take your place.
00:59:50Hey.
00:59:51Hey.
00:59:51Yeah, 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.
01:00:05It's rude to hear.
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 before 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't call Toni, but we can call a stranger we barely know.
01:00:46Great!
01:00:46Lovely!
01:00:47Lisa, please!
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.
01:01:10You 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.
01:01:38She's my best friend.
01:01:40Time is money.
01:01:42Let's do it.
01:01:44Listen.
01:01:45Stop worrying about Toni.
01:01:48And start looking into the contracts and how we keep losing money because of these guys.
01:02:00We don't need you, all right?
01:02:01This is not the other way.
01:02:03I told you, we don't need her.
01:02:03She's wet.
01:02:04Don't stop 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 will 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 that are the way we better can start with you for sure.
01:02:22I see how we move.
01:02:26The band's here to take a new call.
01:02:28Lisa, come on.
01:02:29Yeah, I'll be right there.
01:02:31Lisa, what are you doing?
01:02:33Rocco says the place is packed.
01:02:35I can't hear you.
01:02:37I can't hear you.
01:02:38No, Rocco, it's me.
01:02:39You told me you're ready.
01:02:40Yeah, I said I'll be right there.
01:02:42I feel so much, Rocco.
01:02:49And this 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, you'll get a break soon, I promise.
01:03:03No, now!
01:03:04Girl, you better calm down.
01:03:06I said you will get a break.
01:03:08All right?
01:03:09The sooner you start, the sooner you will finish.
01:03:12Get back to work.
01:03:18Hey, I'm sorry about that.
01:03:24That should never happen, but, you know, that's right.
01:03:31Hi.
01:03:31Thank you so much for the 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, this is not a kiss.
01:03:42Fine, come on.
01:03:43Lisa, please.
01:03:43I'm sorry.
01:03:44Just an autograph.
01:03:44I said no, man.
01:03:46Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:03:47Oh, we good?
01:03:47We good?
01:03:48Oh, sorry.
01:03:49What the hell are you doing, Tony?
01:03:51What?
01:03:51You can't be letting 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 got to be more thoughtful.
01:04:00How you handle situations, Tony?
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, 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.
01:04:46You good?
01:04:48Yeah.
01:04:49I'm good.
01:04:51Just tired.
01:04:54I don't know what's going on.
01:05:06Oh, man.
01:05:08Riding in style.
01:05:09That's nice.
01:05:09Look at this, man.
01:05:10What 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, and we're sick and tired of it.
01:05:40Right, Alex?
01:05:41Guys, listen, like, 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, but I had a lawyer look over everything.
01:05:54And those contracts that we signed, put 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, and 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 saying, stop!
01:06:16Chill!
01:06:17Chill!
01:06:17Back your ass up!
01:06:19She 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, and 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.
01:06:46We signed them.
01:06:48I just bought my mom a house, my 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?
01:07:33You 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 it.
01:07:41Stop!
01:07:41Stop!
01:07:42I can't handle this!
01:07:43I can handle what?
01:07:44The truth?
01:07:45I've been saying the same thing over and over and over.
01:07:47Now it's happening.
01:07:48Now it's a problem?
01:07:50What is up with you?
01:07:51You've been acting different for 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, and I'm not going to keep allowing it.
01:08:00Maybe you don't know what the hell you're talking about, Tony!
01:08:03Okay.
01:08:03Maybe I can stick up for myself!
01:08:07Do it.
01:08:11The rise of hip-hop and electronic dance music is forcing the freestyle genre to fade.
01:08:34I'll be back in a minute to check on you.
01:08:40It's Lisa Lisa.
01:08:42Hi.
01:09:03She's killing it, right?
01:09:05Now let's see what you got.
01:09:09Yeah, that's it.
01:09:11Now, keep going.
01:09:16What's up?
01:09:17I stopped by to get my chick.
01:09:19I didn't know when it was rehearsing.
01:09:21Who was that?
01:09:22She's cute.
01:09:24Tony!
01:09:27Do you have a minute?
01:09:28Yeah.
01:09:29Come on, me in a bit.
01:09:38Come on, me in a bit.
01:09:40Come on, me in a bit.
01:09:42Let's go, babe.
01:09:46Okay.
01:09:50I'm sorry.
01:09:51I'm sorry.
01:09:54I got that.
01:09:54I'm sorry.
01:09:57I got that.
01:09:57It's a little bit.
01:10:26I need a job, man.
01:10:31Is that all you need?
01:10:37Hey!
01:10:39I told you.
01:10:43You'll be back.
01:10:51This love we have could be real.
01:10:54Let me show you how I feel.
01:10:58Oh, 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?
01:11:08Hey, 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?
01:11:23That is...
01:11:25Spanador?
01:11:27Mike.
01:11:28Mike!
01:11:30Lisa, hear me out.
01:11:32Where's Tony?
01:11:34Where'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
01:12:20about your career.
01:12:22You could lose everything you have worked for.
01:12:25And for what?
01:12:27Some lesbian?
01:12:29How dare you?
01:12:32What does it matter who she sleeps with
01:12:34or who she is?
01:12:38You don't like Tony
01:12:39because she sees through your lives.
01:12:42Mm-hmm.
01:12:44You don't like her
01:12:45because 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
01:13:01without someone like me.
01:13:11Watch me.
01:13:25Have you seen Tony?
01:13:27Can I get a pizza?
01:13:28I'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 wanna 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 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 alright.
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 wanna do.
01:14:27Tony!
01:14:28What the hell is that?
01:14:29Tony! Are you here?
01:14:31Hey, get the piece, man.
01:14:32Hold me down.
01:14:34What the hell 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, Bodecua.
01:15:09There are off-duty police officers waiting for me outside.
01:15:14If they come over here,
01:15:16and they spot that pile of cocaine you got there,
01:15:21they'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, Bodecua.
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.
01:16:27This?
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.
01:17:00Scared of what?
01:17:03Scared of losing everything.
01:17:06You know, when I was a kid.
01:17:09I would...
01:17:11Stand on a chair in the kitchen.
01:17:12And just dream I was on a stage, singing.
01:17:17You know, that I was...
01:17:18The one coming out of Radio City Music Hall in a limo.
01:17:24That I would take care of mommy,
01:17:26And that I would make...
01:17:28Pelayo proud.
01:17:30They'd see me all successful.
01:17:36For a while, it felt like...
01:17:39Everything we were living...
01:17:42Was that dream.
01:17:46And the moment...
01:17:48Anyone 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.
01:18:06You...
01:18:08I was terrified of losing you.
01:18:12And I was so angry at you.
01:18:17Why did you do that?
01:18:22Once...
01:18:24I asked the 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.
01:18:56To be selling...
01:18:56Rock for my pops.
01:18:58It was never about the money.
01:19:00I just wanted him to love me.
01:19:06Tony...
01:19:07I 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.
01:19:20I 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 secrets.
01:20:00Cause sisters don't keep secrets.
01:20:03Okay?
01:20:08No more secrets.
01:20:10I think there's one more person you need to tell.
01:20:16Lisa!
01:20:17My God!
01:20:18Your time is a novel!
01:20:20My God!
01:20:21My God!
01:20:24It'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.
01:20:35But what are you doing Saturday night?
01:21:02We did it, Mom.
01:21:06Yes, we did.
01:21:08Okay, we've been busy.
01:21:16Bye, look.
01:21:22Do you want me more?
01:21:32Sorry, Baby.
01:21:35I'll wait, Mom.
01:21:40We'll eat after, yeah?
01:21:41Mm-hmm.
01:21:43Yeah.
01:21:46Yeah, baby.
01:21:48So beautiful.
01:21:54Yeah?
01:21:57It's time.
01:22:02I'll see you later.
01:22:03Yeah.
01:22:05Hey.
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.
01:22:18Ha!
01:22:19I 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.
01:23:23Oh, yeah.
01:23:24I've never been more proud of you, sis.
01:23:26I love you, sis.
01:23:31I love you, sis.
01:23:38I love you, sis.
01:23:44Hang on so much, sis.
01:23:47I love you, sis.
01:23:51Can you feel the beat within my heart? Can you see my love shine through the dark?
01:23:59Can you feel the beat within my heart? Can 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
01:24:19I'm Lisa, Tony
01:24:22Let me hear you scream!
01:24:36Let me hear you scream!
01:24:46After all that we've been through
01:24:49I can seem to face the fact that, boy, I'm losing you
01:24:53I threw away your tires...
01:24:55We're going to do this my way, or not at all.
01:25:09Don't you have sisters?
01:25:11No.
01:25:12You got me now.
01:25:26Time to go if we see your love.
01:25:31Oh, my love, my love.
01:25:34Aw, you're so only your best friend.
01:25:36You're so cheesy.
01:25:38Can we stay in love, New York?
01:25:40Are you ready for this?
01:25:41Can you feel the pain within my heart?
01:25:43Can you see my love shine through the dark?
01:25:45Can you feel the pain within 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?
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?
01:26:22Well...
01:26:23Here you go.
01:26:33Oh, yeah.
01:26:36You ain't bad as much as you know me.
01:26:43If I want however leads you.
01:26:44Oh, yeah.
01:26:46You ain't bad.
