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.
00:01:03Keep going.
00:01:05Hey, stop!

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 got to. Maybe I wouldn't have to if our pops was worth a damn, huh?
00:02:21Who's gonna 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
00:02:30and think about how you can pitch in around here.
00:02:32I'm not gonna have mommy working three jobs
00:02:33while you're in La La Land.

00:07:05What was Jellybean?
00:07:07It's the main DJ at the boombox basement.
00:07:08Boy, that is it.

00:07:11Boy.
00:07:12Boy, that's fine.

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 unless you come with us.
00:07:35Shit, I 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 stock room.
00:07:41Is 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?
00:07:50Heladio!
00:07:50Please!
00:07:51No!
00:07:52You know how many pervs and weirdos go to places like that to pick up on young girls?
00:07:55You're gonna be with me.
00:07:57It's a bar.
00:07:58You're 15.
00:07:59It's seen that there won't be any alcohol.
00:08:01Heladio, stop and listen to me.
00:08:05I'm gonna live and die in this neighborhood and never be nothing.
00:08:09I wanna take care of mommy one day.
00:08:12What's that got to do with this club?
00:08:13There are gonna 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.
00:08:36Coming from a far land where they never stayed.
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 plus 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.
00:08:53Is 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 doesn't set.
00:09:05Try to get us into the green room.
00:09:07Gone!

00:12:23What you mean? What's wrong with my look?
00:12:25Look, I love you the way you are
00:12:28But these record executives, they start buggin' about silly things like looks and image
00:12:34But you know I can sing my ass off
00:12:37I know it, but 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 waitin' to take advantage of a young buck like you
00:12:53I ain't exactly no young buck
00:12:56You still workin' with your pots?
00:12:59Sampling the product?

00:15:36We gotta go
00:15:36We gotta talk to you
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 wanna sing?
00:15:52Hey, guys
00:15:53Let's do another shot
00:15:54Something she know
00:15:55See ya
00:16:00You can see the picture
00:16:00An hour
00:16:01And you can see you
00:16:22That's why
00:16:23I haven't been
00:16:24Maybe it should have set the mood when we're alone in your mind.
00:16:34Only a fool will ever try to hide.
00:16:39Let your hold us look again.
00:16:41Leave me in the air feeling high.
00:16:51Yeah.
00:16:52What about Hell's Kitchen's trio?
00:16:54Wow.
00:16:54No, 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, but hey, what?
00:17:01It's gotta be slick.
00:17:02It'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?
00:17:23Because Lisa ain't your everyday girl.
00:17:26That's what I'm saying.
00:17:27Mm-hmm.
00:17:27No.
00:17:28She's not.
00:17:29Oh.
00:17:30Oh.
00:17:31No.
00:17:31Lisa.
00:17:32Ain't your everyday girl?
00:17:33She's uniquely blessed.
00:17:35How about...
00:17:37Lisa.
00:17:38Lisa.
00:17:40And cult jam.
00:17:42Yo.
00:17:43That's fresh.
00:17:44Right?
00:17:45What you think, Lisa?
00:17:47Yeah, that's a joint.
00:17:49I'm down.
00:17:50We got a name.
00:17:51Lisa.
00:17:53And 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 wonder if I take you home.
00:18:04I wonder if I take you home.
00:18:05Would you still be your home, baby?
00:18:08Because I need you tonight.
00:18:10Oh-oh.
00:18:15Brothers are some of the best producers in town.
00:18:18This is Grapeberry.
00:18:18Thank you so much.
00:18:20Yes.
00:18:21Lisa.
00:18:23Sweetheart.
00:18:25You're incredible.
00:18:26With that sound, it'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?
00:18:38Tour?
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.
00:19:06That was pure yank nonsense.
00:19:11I 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 you gigs, find the producers, and work on promotions.
00:19:36Hey, Mommy!
00:19:37Did you find it all right?
00:19:40Hello, man.
00:19:43Hello, Mom.
00:19:45Pleasure to meet you.
00:19:46Me too.
00:19:47Barry Connor.
00:19:48I just have a few papers that need your signature.
00:19:51Let's, uh, 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, you know that we can't proceed unless she signs, right?
00:20:05I mean, it's just too much risk with an underage artist, so walk her through it.
00:20:11Okay?
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.
00:20:20Cool.
00:20:23Let's run this.
00:20:24I love a 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 don't 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.
00:20:55I 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 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.
00:21:20Doing it myself.
00:21:43All right, we need to get you guys back in the studio right away.
00:21:48Contracts are signed.
00:21:51You go home, celebrate.
00:21:54Tomorrow, we get to work.
00:21:56Come on.
00:21:56Go, Mom.
00:21:57I gotta save 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.
00:22:43My mom's waiting for me.
00:22:45Okay.
00:22:45Yeah.

00:23:05We gotta get going.
00:23:06You ready?
00:23:06It's a shirt now!
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.
00:23:35In California, Governor Jerry Brown won the Democratic nomination the 160th day of 1982
00:23:40in case you're coming.
00:23:41It's a time that some people were reminded that actors are people.
00:23:45So what does this mean for AIDS patients in this country?
00:23:49Pittsburgh beat the New York Mets.
00:23:50Hello, Pittsburgh.
00:23:51It's 6-2.
00:23:53And the Los Angeles Lakers won their second national basketball championship.
00:23:58Three in six years.
00:23:59L.A. comes to Boston and wins the world title.
00:24:04Oops!
00:24:05Oops!
00:24:07Did you know about that step, man?
00:24:08You got a slider, though.
00:24:10I know!
00:24:11Yo, ain't that the band on TV?
00:24:13I was like, that's snazy.
00:24:16Oh, what's up?
00:24:18Hi.
00:24:18Oh, thank you so much.
00:24:20Yeah.
00:24:29What's up, baby?
00:24:31What's your name?
00:24:31What's up?
00:24:32I'm looking mad good.
00:24:34My name's Javi.
00:24:35Take my number.
00:24:53You got a problem with it?
00:24:54What?
00:24:55You got a problem with it?
00:25:05What?
00:25:05And they are about to go national, baby.
00:25:07On Top American Countdown.
00:25:09A show that has taken some of the hottest stars of today and catapulted them into the stratosphere.
00:25:14And today is Lisa Lisa's turn.
00:25:16This is that lover.
00:25:17You already know what it is.
00:25:19Back to you.
00:25:19Come on, make some noise out there.
00:25:22Come on.
00:25:22Come on.
00:25:23Come on, Lisa Lisa, baby.
00:25:25Every home in America watches the bands on this show.
00:25:28And 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, Lisa.
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.
00:26:00Oh, we got it.
00:26:01Yeah, cool.
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.
00:26:14No, 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,
00:26:32please welcome Lisa Lisa.
00:26:41I 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.
00:26:52And 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.
00:34:54Hit the beat now.
00:34:57That's dope.
00:34:58Why does she have to redo it?
00:35:00Yeah.
00:35:00I mean, it still needs a final mix, but we close, Tony.
00:35:02We close.
00:35:03Cool.
00:35:04We got it.
00:35:04We got it.
00:35:05Yeah.
00:35:09Sounding good.
00:35:10Sounding good.
00:35:12What's going on?
00:35:13Hey, Lisa.
00:35:15You're crushing that track.
00:35:18Come join us.
00:35:20Okay.
00:35:23Guys, the label's happy.
00:35:25So 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.
00:35:32You guys going to be on the road longer.
00:35:34That means more money.
00:35:35More money.
00:35:37Hey.
00:35:38So you have to stay focused.
00:35:40You're not stars yet.
00:35:42Speak for yourself.
00:35:43Ha!
00:35:44I'm a star.
00:35:44I don't speak a star.
00:35:46All right, guys.
00:35:47Hey, great job today.
00:35:49Get out of here.
00:35:49See you tomorrow.
00:35:50Wait.
00:35:52Hey, I'm going to go to the county.
00:35:53All right.
00:35:54Hey, Lisa.
00:35:54Do you have a moment?
00:35:56Yeah.
00:35:56Sure.
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 with you.
00:36:24Yeah, I can, um, take a look at it later.
00:36:27Should probably get over.
00:36:28Hey.
00:36:31I don't want to say what I asked you.
00:36:33Wait, it's Rocco.
00:36:35Stop.
00:36:35That's looking good.
00:36:36Come here.
00:36:38Hey, 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.
00:36:43I want you to kiss me.
00:36:44Hey, Rocco!
00:36:45What?
00:36:46Stop!
00:36:47What are you doing?
00:36:49What's that all about?
00:36:50Stop playing.
00:36:52You stop playing.
00:36:53Rocco, stop.
00:36:55Stop!
00:36:57Rocco!
00:36:59You played too much.
00:37:02See you later.
00:37:16All right.
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?
00:37:24All right, all right.
00:37:24Whatever.
00:37:25Jeez.
00:37:36What are these?
00:37:40Follow me.
00:37:41You ready to go spend some money?
00:37:42Hell yeah!
00:37:44Woo!
00:37:46Okay.
00:37:47Wow!
00:37:49No.
00:37:50This is it.
00:37:51Right?
00:37:52Oh, I love this car.
00:37:54What?
00:37:56I know.
00:37:58Do you take cash or check?
00:38:00Yeah, which one is it?
00:38:03Doesn't matter.
00:38:05I love this.
00:38:08Woo!
00:38:09Oh, yeah!
00:38:11Hi!
00:38:13But you had something in mind for us.
00:38:18When I look into your eyes, I can't stop the rhythm.
00:38:24Should've known it only was a daydream.
00:38:28What did I expect?
00:38:32Giving you my heart.
00:38:34And just play it up.
00:38:35Hey, Lisa!
00:38:36Can I move 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 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 Kai?
00:38:52How's it going?
00:38:52We gotta 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.
00:38:58Get back, get back, get back.
00:38:59Hey, get back.
00:38:59Chill, chill, chill.
00:39:00Watch out.
00:39:01Come on, come on.
00:39:02Sorry, guys.
00:39:02So nice to meet you.
00:39:03Bye.
00:39:03Bye.
00:39:04Bye.
00:39:05Bye.
00:39:07Bye.
00:39:07Oh, wow.
00:39:10Please, I love you.
00:39:11It's the first time Mommy will come see me.
00:39:14No, just, just get on the train and come on.
00:39:18Shh.
00:39:19Let me hear the sound.
00:39:20Mommy!
00:39:23Mommy!
00:39:24Hi, Mom.
00:39:25Oh, I'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.
00:39:34Okay.
00:39:39This is for you.
00:39:41What do you mean?
00:39:45It's yours.
00:39:47No, I can't believe this.
00:39:50Did you see what Lisa bought me?
00:39:52Oh, my God.
00:39:52Why did you do this?
00:39:53You know we were all saving up the bitch in and buy her car.
00:39:56I know, I know.
00:39:56I just wanted to do this for her.
00:39:57No, no, that's not the point.
00:39:59Ay, Eladio, why can't you just be proud of me?
00:40:01For once in your life, don'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, I can check the glove company.
00:40:26Yeah.
00:40:34Well, what is that?
00:40:36This...
00:40:37This...
00:40:37This isn't...
00:40:38What is it?
00:40:41Well, thank you, God.
00:40:44Thank you, God.
00:40:47Glory 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.
00:41:40Mommy.
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?
00:42:02Let them touch you, feel all over you.
00:42:04Is that what you like?
00:42:05Okay, I don't know where this is coming from, but you bugging me.
00:42:07Oh, yeah? I'm bugging?
00:42:11Stop.
00:42:12Havey, wait, wait!
00:42:14What?
00:42:15What do you want?
00:42:15What do you want?
00:42:16What do you want from me?
00:42:17You wanna be with me?
00:42:19Of course.
00:42:22Then marry me.
00:42:25I love you, okay?
00:42:27I do.
00:42:29I don't wanna sit here wondering if you're mine.
00:42:36Baby, I'm yours.
00:42:38Yeah.
00:42:39Then marry me.
00:42:41Marry me or I'll go home, pack my things and leave.
00:42:44Cause as is, this isn't gonna work.
00:42:51It's a choice.
00:42:54Okay.
00:42:58Okay.
00:43:00Really?
00:43:01Let's get married.
00:43:04It's okay.
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.
00:43:18Don't do this.
00:43:20Wait until you're older and out of this game.
00:43:22You don't understand, Eladio.
00:43:24Only 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 wanna get married so young?
00:43:37I love him, Mami.
00:43:39Oh, you know it's love.
00:43:42Nena.
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.
00:44:00If can be wrong, I'll see you now.
00:44:07Maybe I will play on watching.
00:44:08Can you?
00:44:10A can view, I can see.
00:44:13Is good to hear.
00:44:18Good to hear you.
00:44:20I know.
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
00:44:56the music producer group were looking for a female lead and stumbled across the
00:45:0016-year-old singer. In 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 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.
00:45:50Okay, listen. Shaving is like farming. You better start with little strokes and go up each side. Like that. Can't
00:46:02believe 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?
00:46:20Oh. Alright. I'll be home in two weeks. Okay. I love you.
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. No need. I trust him.
00:47:03Javi! I'm home!
00:47:15Baby!
00:47:34Baby!
00:47:50You know, if Barry finds out...
00:47:52I know.
00:47:55Are 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 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.
00:48:41Why 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?
00:48:59Look...
00:49:00I 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'mma help you.
00:49:57I'mma help you.
00:50:03I'mma help you.
00:50:04Can you just...
00:50:05Can you just leave me alone for a minute?
00:50:08Like it is.
00:50:08Like it is.
00:50:10The more I think about
00:50:14How much I let me down
00:50:17I need a new day to start the rest
00:50:22Time to get back to me, gotta go, yes I know it
00:50:34I need a new day.
00:50:34Hey, but you see Shorty over there?
00:50:36You think I'll get her a little drink?
00:50:37I mean, she look good, but I mean, it'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.
00:50:45I need to 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.
00:50:55You 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.
00:51:01What can I get for you?
00:51:03Bartender, let me get...
00:51:04Let me get a whiskey.
00:51:06Double.
00:51:07Oh, damn.
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.
00:51:35Oh.
00:51:36She...
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.
00:52:25Okay?
00:52:26Okay.
00:52:27We just got your results back.
00:52:30And, uh...
00:52:31It 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, limiting the chances of survival.
00:52:56Survival?
00:52:56Survival?
00:52:57Mm-hmm.
00:53:01I can't stop touring.
00:53:03I...
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?
00:53:15Can 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.
00:54:13And 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? I can't stop.
00:54:43We'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.
00:54:57Oh, yes.
00:55:03You're gonna be okay.
00:55:08By the way, my daughter, she loves your music.
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.
00:55:56Come 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.
00:56:08Can we 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 of this, 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 they 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...
00:56:50Having those kinds of questions, it doesn't benefit anyone.
00:56:54It doesn't.
00:56:57Back off, Lisa.
00:56:59You down?
00:57:02Yeah.
00:57:03Yeah, I think so. Thanks.
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.
00:57:33We'll have lunch.
00:57:35Okay.
00:57:47Here for your check.
00:57:59I'm gonna need an advance on those jobs, Rob, arranged.
00:58:03Sure.
00:58:03Got a few bills that built up.
00:58:06Um...
00:58:07What upcoming jobs?
00:58:09I...
00:58:09I don't see anything.
00:58:10Oh.
00:58:11The 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...
00:58:33I just spoke to them.
00:58:34I had a whole creative, uh, conversation about...
00:58:37about the commercial and 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.
00:58:49So, 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.
00:59:13This is how the industry works.
00:59:16You signed the contract.
00:59:18You belong to us.
00:59:20We decide what's best or we find another band who'll 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.
00:59:44There's plenty of girls waiting in line to take your place.
00:59:49Hey.
00:59:51Hey.
00:59:51Yeah.
00:59:52No.
00:59:52No.
00:59:52I 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 Tony.
01:00:22She's done this before.
01:00:23Okay.
01:00:23She's a backup singer.
01:00:24Period.
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 Tony, but we can't 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 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 Tony.
01:00:57Who cares if I'm friends with Tony?
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 Tony, 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.
01:01:33No, it won't.
01:01:36Lisa.
01:01:36She's like a sister.
01:01:38She's my best friend.
01:01:40Come here.
01:01:41Time is money.
01:01:42Somebody do it.
01:01:43Do it.
01:01:44Listen.
01:01:45Stop worrying about Tony.
01:01:47And 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 only thing I'm going to do.
01:02:03We 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 us 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.
01:02:19Look, there's a few execs that are labeled that are concerned with your friends.
01:02:22I see how they move.
01:02:26The band's here to take a good call.
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.
01:02:35I can't meet you.
01:02:37I'm here.
01:02:38You're right.
01:02:38Yes, Lisa.
01:02:39You ready?
01:02:40Yeah, I said I'll be right there!
01:02:42I feel so much better.
01:02:50This is a great turnout.
01:02:57I can't do this anymore.
01:02:59What?
01:03:00I need a break.
01:03:01Alright, you'll get a break soon, I promise.
01:03:03No, now!
01:03:04Girl, you better calm down.
01:03:06I said you would get a break.
01:03:08Alright?
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.
01:03:29That'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, no.
01:03:41Just an autograph.
01:03:41Okay?
01:03:42Fine, come on, Lisa, please.
01:03:43Fine.
01:03:44Sorry, just an autograph.
01:03:44I said no, man.
01:03:46Oh, we good?
01:03:47We good?
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 gotta 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...
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!
01:04:46You good?
01:04:49Yeah.
01:04:50I'm good.
01:04:51I'm just 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!
01:05:10What 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 are you asking me for?
01:05:20That 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 gonna 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.
01:05:59Nah.
01:06:00You screwed yourself.
01:06:02I already told you.
01:06:03The 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 you talking to?
01:06:13I'm talking to you.
01:06:13I'm talking to you.
01:06:14Chill!
01:06:14Chill!
01:06:16Chill!
01:06:17Lock your ass up!
01:06:18You need to be out of here, now!
01:06:20Chill out!
01:06:21Stop!
01:06:21Mike, stop dissing her!
01:06:25This is the biggest night of our careers, and you guys are wilding in a damn car?
01:06:40Man, what are we gonna 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, 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.
01:06:59Cause I ain't going back to folding sweaters in the stockroom.
01:07:02You hear me?
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?
01:07:40He's the one that started it.
01:07:41Stop!
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 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 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 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.
01:08:40Lisa.
01:08:42Hi.
01:09:01I'm trying to get off my car and make some sort of rest of the show.
01:09:03Yeah...
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?
01:09:17I was just about to get my chick.
01:09:19I didn't know when it was rehearsing.
01:09:21Who's that?
01:09:22She's cute.
01:09:24Tony!
01:09:27Do you have a minute?
01:09:28Yeah. Come on, me in a bit.
01:10:18Look what the cat's right here again.
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.
01:10:51This love we have could be real, let me show you how I feel, oh boy, we can make it,
01:11:03we
01:11:03can 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, Salvador.
01:11:19Who's that?
01:11:20Um, don't change anything.
01:11:22That is, um...
01:11:24Spanador?
01:11:27Mike.
01:11:28Mike!
01:11:30Lisa, hear me out.
01:11:32Where's Stoney?
01:11:34Where's Stoney?
01:11:37Lisa!
01:11:42I told you.
01:11:48Barry!
01:11:50I'm gonna have to call you back.
01:11:52What happened to Stoney?
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.
01:12:01Stoney'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, I 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?
01:12:27Some lesbian?
01:12:29How dare you?
01:12:32What does it matter who she sleeps with or who she is?
01:12:38You don't like Stoney 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 going to 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 Stoney?
01:13:28I'm so sorry, girls.
01:13:28I can't write.
01:13:31Lisa?
01:13:32Why are you looking for Stoney?
01:13:35She 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, you got to save her.
01:13:55If she stays in the projects, she'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, be careful.
01:14:08Project's no place for a girl after sunset.
01:14:12Yo, I 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!
01:14:28What the hell is that?
01:14:29Tony!
01:14:29Are 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?
01:14:39Tony.
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, 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?
01:15:27You 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, this?
01:16:29It'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...
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...
01:17:27Pelagio proud.
01:17:30They'd see me all successful.
01:17:36For a while, it felt like...
01:17:38Everything 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?
01:18:21At once...
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.
01:18:35He ended up...
01:18:37strung out in the projects most nights.
01:18:40But he said when you...
01:18:42spend your life...
01:18:46being numb...
01:18:48drugs help you to feel something.
01:18:51And I guess I just...
01:18:53I just wanted to feel something.
01:18:56I've been selling...
01:18:56rock for my pops.
01:18:58It was never about the money.
01:19:00I just wanted him to love me.
01:19:05Tony.
01:19:06I guess I just...
01:19:09I gotta accept the fact...
01:19:10that 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.
01:19:40My 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.
01:20:00Because sisters don't keep secrets.
01:20:03Okay?
01:20:07No more secrets.
01:20:10I think there's one more person you need to tell.
01:20:16Lisa, my mother, you're not a novelist.
01:20:20My mother.
01:20:21My mother.
01:20:23My mother.
01:20:23My mother.
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?
01:21:03We did it, Mom.
01:21:07Yes, we did.
01:21:33Hi, 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.
01:21:44Yeah.
01:21:46Hi, baby.
01:21:48So cute.
01:21:55Yeah?
01:21:57It's time.
01:22:02I'll see you later.
01:22:03Yeah.
01:22:05Yeah.
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.
01:22:18Ha.
01:22:19I figured you might need it,
01:22:20since 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, sis.
01:23:24Oh, yeah.
01:23:47I don't know.
01:23:48New York, are you ready for that?
01:23:51Can you feel the beat within my heart?
01:23:53Can you see my love shine through the dark?
01:23:59Can you feel the beat within 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.
01:24:22Tony.
01:24:27Let me hear you scream!
01:24:28Let me hear you scream!
01:24:29Oh, oh, oh!
01:24:30Oh, oh, oh, oh!
01:24:33Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
01:24:36Oh, oh, oh, oh!
01:24:38Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
01:24:46After all that we've been through
01:24:49I can't seem to face the fact that, boy, I'm losing you
01:24:53I threw away your tears through the tears
01:24:55We're going to do this my way, but we're not at all.
01:25:09Don't you have sisters?
01:25:11No. You got me now.
01:25:26Time to go in place for 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. Tony. Get up. Get 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?
01:26:21Well, here you go.
01:26:25This is how you feel.
01:26:28You'll be back.
01:26:29And now we're looking at it.
01:26:33Oh, yeah.
01:26:36You'll be back.
01:26:38You'll be back.
01:26:39You'll be back.
01:26:40You'll be back.
01:26:41You'll be back.
01:26:42Oh, yeah.
01:26:46You'll be back.
01:26:52You'll be back.
01:26:54You'll be back.
01:26:56You'll be back.
01:26:59You'll be back.
01:27:01You'll be back.
01:27:06You'll be back.
01:27:06You'll be back.
01:27:08You'll be back.
01:27:09You'll be back.
01:27:09You'll be back.
01:27:09You'll be back.
01:27:09You'll be back.
01:27:09You'll be back.
01:27:10You'll be back.
01:27:12You'll be back.
01:27:29When you feel the world is taking over
01:27:33And it seems life is too much
01:27:38When it seems so hard to make tomorrow count
01:27:46You can make it so hard
