00:00It doesn't matter if I love you or that you love me
00:05Do you write?
00:06Mm-hmm. Do you?
00:08Yeah, it's been a minute.
00:10I wanna find a way
00:12Happy birthday, love.
00:13Here's a little surprise.
00:15You like it?
00:16What's going on, man?
00:17I need some money for my mom.
00:18You know what we do to make money, like, for real, huh?
00:20Yeah, I do, and I don't want any part of that.
00:22You still making music?
00:23Why?
00:24I might know a guy who could get you some studio time.
00:30Let me see what you got, bro.
00:33You know, I find that most people at some point in time in their life tap into this thing I like to call the juice.
00:39But the problem with the juice is that it has no staying power.
00:43Now, if you could tap into the sauce.
00:45The sauce is swagger. I'm talking, like, real swagger.
00:51Drop some heat, you feel me?
00:54If you haven't heard it yet, here it is. Let it go.
00:57You are flying up the charts, boy.
01:01My boy here just signed a record deal.
01:13You got something for me?
01:14What is going on in there? You gotta come clean.
01:16You need to chill, okay? Because I'm doing this for you.
01:19I wonder how you get all that free studio time.
01:22You just thought you were that good, huh? Just that gifted?
01:26Does she have, like, this dark side to you?
01:28You're also a badass on the run.
01:31Don't let me catch you in another studio.
01:33We believe in you from the jump.
01:36Don't forget it.
01:39Did you forget about our agreement? You pay me back.
01:42I got a problem with your little boy band.
01:45I was cleaning blood off my hands when I met you.
01:48You work for me now. You understand?
01:56Do you know what the most valuable currency in the world is?
02:01It's loyalty.
