What the fuck you talking about, pussy?

- Oh really, really?
- Yeah.

Straight up.

Moved to Atlanta
for this music shit

- Labareis.

That's my little brother Kenny.

- Labareis!

He's cool as hell with the flow.

And just died in front of my bitch crib.

Somebody about to die.

The dangerous trend

of gaining street
credibility in the rap world

is high in statistics
in black on black crime.

We ask the question, are the streets

and the industry one in the same

when it relates to violence?

Reporting live, Atlanta, Georgia.

- It wasn't right!

He didn't steal nothing or none of that.

And this motherfucker shoots my brother

in broad daylight, in front of everyone!

Right in front of Labareis' house.

This don't make no sense.

Everybody knows Labareis
don't play no games.

But then nobody sees shit, right?

Blu.

And this is Desiree, his sister.

I'm her boyfriend, Cortney.

The bad part is,

she just found a letter
that Kenny got last night.

He got selected to be
on the TV show "Turnt."

And a million dollar record deal.

Now this fucked our whole family up.

We don't know

We don't know.

But I'm sure Rilla gonna find out.

- Oh my God!

Oh God.

- First of all,

I'd like to give honor and praise to God.

And as you can see the pain of a mother.

Losing a child is one of the most

unnatural things in nature.

I can't imagine the pain
that a mother go through.

Though even when he finally
reach this destination,

when you finally, finally
reach this destination, mama,

you know what you can have?

You can have joy on your face.

Because we all will be here.

But you can have joy on your face

that Kenny is in a righteous way.

That he will be able to give,

and gave his life for us.

Amen.

That's my wife.

We ain't been cool lately.

I think she's just here

for the love of my mama.

In my hood, everything goes.

At least everything goes through me.

I don't trust no nigga.

Except Blu.

She handles all my shit.

But she loves a nigga for real.

♪ Let's go to sleep in Chicago ♪

- I'm Kenny's uncle.

Listen, let me tell you this.

This is nobody's fault.

And especially not yours.

Okay?

What was your name, again?

- It's Tanya Clark.

- Tanya Clark.
- Kenny's girlfriend.

- Okay, Tanya.

You just be strong, okay?

You just, just be strong, alright?

Now listen.

Let's go join the rest of the family.

- We thank God for every meal
that landed on the table.

Before going to bed at night, we pray.

And the next morning,

we pray thanking God for
letting us see another day.

And I continue that with my children.

My youngest son, he
used to say this prayer.

Now I lay me and mama down to sleep,

I pray to the lord my soul he'll keep.

If I should die before I wake,

I pray the lord my soul he'll take.

And Jesus took his soul.

Now I see the faces of
my remaining children.

I see the pain.

I see the hurt.

I see the revenge.

And that's why I live in
Revelations 21 and four,

that says you've got to put
God before your children.

Says you have to put God
before your children.

I will say that 100 times
until I can smile again.

So please pray for me.

Please.

Now, Kenny wanted to be a rap star,

but I wanted him to be a doctor,

and I never listened to that music.

But I want to hear Kenny's voice

coming out of every speaker in this house.

And we're gonna sit and have this meal

the way Kenny would
sit and have this meal.

- I have it in my phone.

- So what do I need to do?

- I need to talk to Rilla.

- Now, you know that ain't gonna happen.

- I need to talk to Rilla.

- Baby, calm down.

- Don't tell me to calm down

when the motherfucker that killed Kenny

is coming after his ass next.

- Well I guess you right.

Let me go holler at him.

- What's up?

- I need to talk to you.

- You here, right?

- I need to talk to
you about your brother.

- What the fuck did you just say?

- I need to talk to you
about your brother Kenny.

- What you know?

- I know about this much.

I know that, well, I
won't say where I was...

- I don't give a fuck about where you was.

What you know?

- Well, I know who killed Kenny,

and the person that killed Kenny said

that you were next.

- Get the fuck up off my porch.

- Man, if it was me,

I'd add a whole block out.

It is what it is.

It's gonna be what it's gonna be.

- You're right about that.

- I ain't playing with these lames, nigga.

I ain't playing with nobody.

I fuck around to catch a body.

- Yeah yeah, I mean,
this feeling is mutual.

You know that.

It's just that loyalty shit
I'm stuck on, you know?

I don't want nobody getting out of line.

- Man, don't even trip.

These niggas is lame down here, man.

I'm from Philly.

You know how that Eagle do.

- Right.

It's just a nigga shooter came to the crib

with some chick with that Escalade.

She talking about little bro.

- It's probably her niggas.

It's her boyfriend, dog.

What's her name?

- I don't even know.

We'll call Sugar though.

- He gonna need a new bitch.

I got him.

What you doing with that?

- That's for you, what you mean?

- No, put that money up, man.

This is loyalty in a physical form, yo.

Put that shit up, man.

- Ah, fuck it.

We out.

With all this pain

my momma was going through.

Now it was time to tear
this motherfucker up.

- Nigga be shouting
me, blowing my phone up

talking about money.

I don't want to talk about money.

You know what I mean?

Shit, you know, your shit on point.

God damn!

See the reason
why Rilla is so powerful,

'cause he move different.
- Hey!

He ain't got
to touch you his self.

- What's up?

He got killers on the payroll.

No cap.

This is Zina Holloway.

Zina is his baby momma.
- What's up?

And she would
literally do anything

that nigga asked.
- For what?

Ride or die.

- Why do you keep putting
your hands in your pockets?

Plus, she's
sexier than a motherfucker.

- You're not getting my fucking number.

And she don't take no shit.

- Cortney wanted me to rap for Blu.

I got a major connect in the music world

out there in LA.

Rita Robinson.

Running everything.

So I'll do it.

I'm fucking with her.

- I don't give a damn what
you singers care about.

Sure, you love music.

Music is your world.

I know music, and I know business.

But I love money.

That's why Robinson Music Group

has had over 80 top 100s.

Something like 30 top 40s,

and a handful of top 10s.

But you want to know why we haven't had

any number ones in over two years?

Because of egos.

For a lack of a better term,

a bitch is quick to turn Hollywood.

But you,

Tamela, you have a
flawless stage presence.

You write your own songs.

And your voice is so
melodic, it's like an angel.

But that ain't gonna get
your ass to number one.

- The same thing.

The same thing that all day we do.

- And you're gonna be
the one that's buying it?

- Of course.

- You're gonna be the one that is buying?

- Why are you playing me like that?

- It's crazy that you're gonna
be the one that's buying.

Ain't no way I was buying.

- Where the fuck you going, playboy?

- No, wait a minute.

Wait a minute!
- Shut up nigga.

Don't move nigga, I'll school you nigga.

Pull out, bro, pull out, bro.

Let's move, let's move, let's move.

- So, you said you're
gonna chill out, huh?

That means you're gonna
spend some time with me?

- No, I got to make
some moves in a minute.

Just want to take a little nap.

Why is you drinking?

Give me that bottle.

- Maybe I wouldn't have had to drink

if you was here at home.

- So what, you got excuses now?

- It's not an excuse.

I'm just saying, I would appreciate it

if you would hear me.

- I ain't trying to do all that.

- I be messing with you.

- No, not right now, baby.

You're tripping.
- I'm tripping?

- Yeah man, you know my nigga's stressing.

- Okay, this was to un-stress you.

- Yeah, I understand.

I get it all the time.

- I'm trying to make love to you,

you're pushing me off of you.

It's bullshit.

It's exactly why I'm drinking right now.

You know, I don't have to
deal with this bullshit.

It's supposed to be always.

I finally
caught up with Rilla.

After he made his momma promise

that he would keep Kenny's dream alive,

and start rapping himself.

And after all this filing and shit,

we got a chance to kick it

about publishing and all type of shit.

But I really don't think he give a fuck.

All he know is the streets.

To tell you the truth,

I think he feels guilty
about what happened to Kenny,

'cause Kenny was trying
to tell him about "Turnt"

the night before he got killed.

But Rilla didn't listen,

'cause he was just worried about the bag.

How do you turn

a street nigga into a rapper?

I don't know.

But this is Turnt Studios,

the biggest music TV show in the world.

And Kenny was about to be on it.

Now I'm about to get Rilla on it.

He don't like to see
nobody get money but him.

- See that's what the fuck
I'm talking about, man.

What the fuck is up with you, man?

Mom and sis been saying

you ain't been dropping
down like you supposed to.

What's the problem?

- I didn't want to tell you.

East Blake, it's over.

- What the fuck you mean it's over?

Man listen man, 12 ain't
gonna touch that hood, man.

They know I've been
taking care of that block

for years now.

Man get the fuck out of my
face with that bullshit, man.

- Rilla, Rilla sent
Holloway through that money.

She dropped 250 racks.

So she came back this morning,

she ate everybody out.

What you want me to do about it?

- What I want you to do about it?

Man, go get my block together.

And if you ain't got it
in you to kill a nigga,

think about momma.

Man, get the fuck on, man.

Come on, man.

You ready?

- That's your little brother?

- Yeah, man.

For some reason, he said
he needed street cred.

For his rap career.

So you know, I put him in trap.

But he ain't built for this shit, bro.

Come on, let's go.

♪ Cooling on some fly shit ♪

This dumb ass promoter

done fucked around and
crossed Rilla over some money.

And as his manager,

I'm forced to stick my head in the middle

and make sure nobody get their ass killed.

How are you gonna play
us for the 25 though?

- Cool it, man.

I ain't playing y'all, bro.

I mean things as they go the way that they

was supposed to go, man.

I mean, you know, it's
like that sometimes, man,

when you're in this business, man.

I mean, I barely broke even.

- Dog, don't insult my intelligence, man.

You came to me for 25.

I said I didn't want to
have nothing to do with it.

You go to Rilla for the
10, plus another 15.

Told him he was gonna headline.

- Man, y'all must not communicate.

Ain't you his manager?

Man, he did headline the show, bro.

I mean, he just chose not to go up, shit.

That ain't on me.

- Three o'clock?

I ain't no rookie, my nigga.

Who the fuck headline at three o'clock?

- Man, bro, you not, but he is.

I mean, he said he'd get his money

in the streets, anyway.

- Yeah.

Tell you what, you better
hope he don't find out though.

Because he'll blow your
motherfucking head off

for shit like this, and you know that.

- I mean, he ain't
throwing a thug out here

with guns finally.

You know what I'm saying?

But, at the end of the day, man,

I got a situation next week at Blu house.

I put him on that show,

I give him 10K.

I mean, the rest of it,

we're just gonna have to
work that shit out, man.

- Wow, that nigga is not
finna go for that, man.

I'll run it by him.

For real though, I'll shoot your ass

my motherfucking self, my nigga.

I got you started, you
turn to a motherfucking

janky promoter on me?

- Y'all ain't messing
with no janky promoter.

- Then I hear you, I tell you what.

If you're lucky, I'll see you there.

- Alright.

- That don't mean you
come out of hiding though.

- That mess don't hide, bro.

But one thing I can say is that

deep down inside, that
boy really does care.

Maybe sometimes a little bit too much.

- I don't know.
- But I mean,

you a strong sister.

One of the strongest girls I know.

- Getting up to go to work
every morning, that's strong.

Going shopping, buying
cars, that's not strong.

When you love somebody so much

that your whole being is just like

attached to them and your
mind, your body, your soul...

- Some feelings, some
feelings are like drugs.

They can bring you to your highest high,

but then have your whole world
come crashing down on you.

- That's exactly how I feel.

Like a fucking crack head.

- Ever since Kenny died,

Rilla has been a totally different person.

You know how he used to be

when Kenny used to perform?

Flying the family out to
Cali, first class, and shit.

- Yeah, we was like
celebrities or something.

Back when things was good.
- Yeah.

Well, Kenny had just got the confirmation

that he was supposed
to perform on "Turnt."

They set him up with
some distribution deal.

The first person he wanted to
call and tell was Labareis.

Called him all morning, but
he never even picked up.

- Wait.

I didn't know that.

That's probably why Labareis
feels so responsible.

God.

- It's been really,
really hard since then.

You know how close me and Rilla was.

I know he could be a asshole.

He ain't a rapper and gangster.

He a gangster that really rap.

- Well, he gonna make me stop listening

to rap music, period.

- What?

- Especially his music.

Like, his new song "Used To Be,"

I think that's about us.

- Like I said, that is my brother.

But if you feel like you
want to deal with his shit

in some type of love relapse,

I mean, I'm just going to respect that,

but just know, accepting
the residue of the drug,

is gonna make you a desperate woman.

- Girl, I don't know what I'm gonna do.

I got so many different emotions.

I just wish I could have
what you and Cortney have.

- Girl, girl.

I did six months in love rehab.

- What, really?
- Yeah.

Child, I was something
like a crack head, too.

Oh my god.

- Hold on, I got something for you.

Wait, let me see if you remember.

- Let me see.
- You remember?

You remember when Kenny performed this?

- Look, listen.

It's on top of that, he listened.

- Yeah, he did.
- You know what I mean?

He had all his ducks set in a row,

plus, you know that show "Turnt?"

- Yeah.
- He was about to be on it.

that young black men, we get killed.

You know what I mean?

It's cool to kill us, no excuse.

Then on top of all that,

I had to deal with Rilla.

- Labareis.
- Right, so you know.

- Oh that's a mean
motherfucker right there.

- Word.
- He takes care

of his people, though.

- Yeah, he do.

He the realest, no doubt.

But his problem is he
think that street shit

gonna get us to the top.
- Yeah.

- You know what I mean?
- Yeah.

- He don't even want
no fucking publishing.

- He don't want no publishing?
- Yeah, I told him.

Ain't no doorways in the street,

and ain't nobody gonna open no door

for people on the street.
- No.

- Right?
- Yeah, that's crazy.

- Right.
- So you talked to him?

I mean, I'm just saying, you know.

- I talk to him every motherfucking day.

I even got on the court,
bet him on the side.

- No.
- Guess where at.

- No, don't even say.
- Lavanderia.

- Get out of here.
- Yep.

- Dang, I wish we were kids again.

- Yeah.

- I used to whoop your ass on that court.

- What?
- Oh, I didn't?

Yeah, well you had a jumper, though.

I will give you that.

- Look, I still got the
motherfucking jumper.

- No you don't, no you don't.
- Listen listen listen listen.

Fuck all that.

All I'm saying is Kenny is dope.

- Yeah.
- But Rilla two times

doper than him.
- I know.

But it wasn't his dream.

- Okay, well, I get that.
- Yeah.

- So if he die, the dream die,

and Kenny die with him, right?

- I mean, I don't know.

I'll talk to him.

- I don't think he gonna listen.

Listen, want to hear something funny?

- What?

- I told this nigga

that we need a EPK.

You know what that is right?

Guess what he said.
- What?

- Nigga, ain't no problem
with my motherfucking heart.

- No he didn't.
- Yes he did.

- No he didn't!

He thought you were talking about a EKG.

Get the fuck out of here.
- Yeah, yeah.

No books, Google, nothing.

He just tripping.

- That nigga Labareis, that's crazy.

Well, check it out.

You taught me everything I know, though.

- Right.
- So at the end of the day,

we just need to make it his dream too.

- Okay, I'll tell you what.

We got a show at Blue Ivy.

It takes a couple days,
might even be tomorrow.

You could just talk to anyone.

- Yeah.
- Cool?

- That'll be good.
- Alright.

- Is Desi gonna be there?

- Oh man.

Desi ain't been to no
shows since, you know.

She's going through all that, whatnot.

- Oh man.
- But look.

She do got a new number though.

You know what I'm saying.
- She has a new number?

Always so busy, so I never

- Well, Cortney said
you was going to Miami.

- He told you that I was going to Miami?

Geeze, I still see he
tells you everything.

Gosh, I am though.

That's where I'm gonna lay my hat.

- What you mean lay your hat?

- Yeah I'm a realist, some don't like it.

Yeah.

That's the good thing about

I wouldn't mind living in those places.

I never really thought about it like that.

So look, I was so excited

that I forgot to show him this.

Okay, it's the last copy and
I think you should have it.

Oh my God.

This is back when Cortney was in the game

and he went to Kenny's school.

Look.

Oh man.

Miss Stanford,
your meeting's here.

- Give me a second please.

- Oh.
- I love you girl.

- You've got to go already.

I'm happy for you too though.

But check it out, I'm
supposed to meet Cort later,

but he'll probably chicken out, you know.

I always cross him on the court.

I'm pretty sure he don't
want to get showed out.

So, if he doesn't show up,
will you give him this?

- Yeah, I got you.
- Alright thank you.

Donyale was my first cousin.

She handled all the publishing

of some of the biggest names out there.

So I thought it was a good
idea that she talked to Rilla.

But unfortunately, my
backup plan didn't work.

She just gave Des her acceptance letter

from this big company out in London.

She leaving tomorrow.

And she didn't want to tell me to my face.

Hope I see her again.

You've got three murders,

two more attempted murders,

and not to mention with
fully automatic weapons.

Your client was brought
in on murder charges.

You know the process.

I'm gonna have to recommend for no bail

first thing in the morning.

- Cortney is married to Stanford's sister,

and is also his manager.

He is also the manager of
Stanford's little brother.

His name is Kenny.

- You mean the kid who was
murdered earlier this year?

- Yes, and Detective Kruthers was also

in the club that night
unofficially watching Stanford.

- Unofficially?

- He's seen my client leaving the club

30 minutes before the murder.

- Dmitri, the man has the
whole town scared of him.

Luckily my girl is a lawyer,

and she got friends that's lawyers.

Hollered at the DA, dropped all charges.

His mama asked him to
carry on Kenny's dream,

It's important to make it here on time.

Alright?

Alright, later.

I like to

Or maybe just to get away.

Music, it's all the same to me.

Lyrics on top of beats.

So I enjoy it all.

I think everybody come here to relax.

Or maybe just to have
a nice peaceful time.

You definitely not
gonna see the club owner

get shot in front of all of his customers.

I'm just saying.

Alright.

Alright.

You know that little hoe ass nigga Kenny?

He got his head blowed off.

And the same shit's getting
ready to happen to Rilla.

- You killed Kenny?

You a bitch ass nigga.

- Yeah?

You see, you better respect the shooter,

or the shooter sure
enough is gonna disrespect

the shit out of you.

Besides, Rilla played me.

He came to me for a record deal first.

- A record deal?

- Yeah.

- That's funny.

Man nobody don't even know you.

- Let me tell you something, right?

I know you're fucking this nigga.

Don't make me blow your fucking
head off your shoulders.

This motherfucker, first
he's trapping on my block,

then he pushes my brother out.

And then I give him work,
and he throws it away.

Now you want to walk around here

like everything's good, huh?

Like fuck Meko, huh?

No, he's finished.

That Biggie Smalls looking motherfucker.

- He gonna kill your bitch ass.

- Cortney Cortney Cortney.

Damn you got good taste.

You know we need to talk, right?

- About what?

- You know me, I'm Tony.

You might know me as my name,

but you know me, I'm the detective that,

the badass detective
that takes down killers.

You know, hunt 'em down,
get 'em off the streets.

Pop up here or there.

- You funny too.

Hey look.

What you looking down for?

I do know you.

You that crooked ass officer.

- Detective Kruthers, motherfucker.

- To tell you the truth,

I don't give a fuck about your name,

no murders, no station, no nothing.

Told the people down
there I don't kill nobody.

So why are you here?

- There's three type
of people in the world.

One that got some to lose,

one who don't have something to lose,

and one who just don't give a fuck.

And I know which one you are.

I know which one that
the club owner is or was.

See the word on the street is
that your brother-in-law Rilla

just don't give a fuck.

I just don't understand
why he's so concerned with

keeping his hands clean.

- Oh.

You think you slick?

You ain't that slick man.

You ain't slick enough to get me

to start talking like that.

I just told you I ain't killed nobody.

Went down to the station,
I told them that.

Now if you'll excuse
me, you see I gotta go.

- You know why his hands dirty?

He whooped your ass, didn't he?

Yeah, he whooped your ass.
- That's what you heard?

- I mean, that's what
the streets are saying.

- Well you heard wrong bro.

- Okay okay okay.

You know what I like about you Cortney?

You know, when we had you in the precinct,

you didn't run your mouth.

Could you do just one whisper?

Well sure that motherfucker will be dead.

That means your wife
will have two brothers

killed in one year.

- That's fucked up.
- Yeah, real fucked up.

- So, I guess this dumb ass detective

figure he can come to me,

and get me the snitch.

Or be scared of him and
tell him where Rilla is at.

Come on man, that's still my family.

Besides, we don't trust no
police, white nor black.

He just talking and talking
and talking and talking.

I was trying to get the
fuck up out of there.

- Hi, I'm Lucy Clairmont,

here live at Turnt Studios.

Police have just taken into custody

the once famed and loved rap star Faze.

Faze, whose real name is Marcus Jackson,

has been charged with the murder

of up-and-coming rapper Kenny Stanford,

who's known as That Deal.

Kenny's death left the
community torn and angry

after he received the news.
- Shit, the whole time

I was thinking.
- On the hit TV show "Turnt."

His life was cut short due
to senseless street violence,

and remained unsolved until moments ago.

- I need to go handle this.
- When Marcus Jackson

was apprehended for a disturbance here.

- I can't go back to jail.
- Police did find the murder

weapon in his vehicle.
- Shit.

- Apparently, Jackson has been on a spiral

after the fast living and money blowing

has caught up with him.

Sources tell us that he is so unmanageable

that even his family
and friends have stopped

dealing with him.

- The news described this
dude that killed my brother.

And I realized that I'm just like him.

And I realize I'm the
one who killed Kenny.

I ain't no better than him.

I probably did kill somebody's brother.

I feel really bad with this kind of pain.

Shit, all these hoes.

Fuck that.

Ladonna is beautiful and loyal.

I'm gonna tighten up.

Be with my wife forever.

Always.

Lord, before you call me home,

let me make it right.

I was supposed to keep
Kenny's dream alive.

I was too busy trying to play God.

♪ You've been there for the good times ♪

♪ Been there for the very worst times ♪

This about her, right?

- You know, I feel sorry for Blu.

She loves Rilla.

And he loved her too.

Rilla got a lot of women out there,

but something about Blu.

You know, but it is good to
see him get his shit together.

- Why can't we just be friends?

You don't love me enough to be my friend?

- No.

- You deserve better than me.

He was losing
friends and family.

He stopped dealing with
Zina, Shooter, Unk.

He was just going home to his wife.

- What's better than you?

What's wrong with you?

'Cause I gave you all of me.

Don't leave me.

- I woke up the other morning,

feeling like God was talking to me.

When I found out my sister and Cortney

was getting married,

I dropped everything.

- Who give this lovely
beautiful lady away?

- I do.

I was so happy for them.

Yeah, I'm happy too.

It wouldn't have been
the same without 'em.

Look at this sister.

She happy as hell.

It's all love.

- Now you can go ahead
and kiss your bride.

Ah come on, man, kiss the lady, man!

- Yes?

- Hello, ma'am.

I'm Detective Kruthers.

I'll be honest with you.

I need your son.

- No, Cortney know what he doing, man.

Yeah I got to get a nigga his props, man.

That nigga really know what he doing.

He made a lot of things happen,
you know what I'm saying?

Now he talking about we
supposed to head to LA.

And after that, you know what I'm saying,

nigga supposed to be on "Turnt."

You know what I mean?
- Oh my God.

- Yeah, that's hard, that's hard.

That's real hard to be on "Turnt."

- Excuse me?

- Oh, I'm talking about the rap game.

Your youngest song, he
was a rapper, right?

See, back in the days, New York rappers

used to say stuff like,

my mind spray her, killing her verbally.

You know, all metaphorically speaking.

But these kids nowadays.

They go and find a gun.

But once one of them punk
asses get shot or killed,

everybody want to cry, put
their face on T-shirts,

and get revenge.

- Look, sir.

We share some of the same
views, but why are you here?

Now the department called me,

saying that my family and I
could finally get closure.

Do you call this closure?

'Cause if you found the
person who killed my baby,

then why are you looking for Labareis?

- You seem like such a nice lady.

- Matter fact, in big
style, I go to the gym.

- Yeah?

- So you want to meet me by the studio?

- Sure, babe.

Let me get that address too
since your phone is dead.

Put it in a GPS.
- 54,

I think it's 5417 Halfway House.

Halfway House Southwest.

- Alright I got it.

- You got it?
- Yeah.

I'll see you later.
- You straight?

I'm gonna see you later on.
- Alright.

- See, Rilla is responsible
for 13 deaths this year alone.

And all 13 has something to do

with your youngest son's revenge.

Even my sister.
- No.

- That low life.

He killed my niece and her
boyfriend in cold blood.

Now you call that motherfucker

and tell him his days are numbered.
