Beam, gotta go to work.

Take care of your brother.

White-on-white crime is up 40% in the city.

Community leaders and police are growing concerned.

The situation is slowly spiraling out of control.

The streets are getting more dangerous every day.

Do you know when this happened?

Just a few days ago, less than a week ago.

Saying, "Is this city normal?"

And the experts are saying, "No, don't worry about it.

It's gonna pull back. It's gonna correct itself."

Now we're beginning to wonder if this is the new normal.

Oh, maybe for the foreseeable future.

As we head into the close here, the last 15 minutes

we've seen

On my way to Bootsy Bellows with hella the hoes

Try and think what I'ma tell 'em when they get alone

I'm a glutton for women I shouldn't yearn for

Shouldn't be tempted, but baby, I like to hurt, or

Maybe 'cause I was searchin', I found me the perfect person

But me and her didn't work out, she buried what she worked for

And I carried the bitterness of a kola nut

Nigerian shit, my parents never showed much

Womanizer, probably could've been a feminist

'Cause I respect 'em, but Lord, I got polygamy problems

The hoodie come from Barneys, spendin' money is therapeutic

To wear the shit they don't think that you care to buy

So we buying Prada, Balenciaga like it is nada

In the Ferrari, my fear is God and tax problems

Pierre Moss, I dropped ten on my last visit

And half that up at Saks, I favor black businesses

Sue me, l'm rootin' for everybody that's black, yeah, uh huh, yeah

Uh-huh, yeah

Sue me, I'm rootin' for everybody that's black, yo, yo yo, look, look

Sue me, I'm rootin' for everybody that's black

Spent 'bout two racks on handmade durags

Sue me, I'm rootin' for everybody that's black

That's everybody from sports to college class to rap, and back

I want to let you know

In my soul

I won't let you down

And I won't let you down

I want to let you know

And I won't let you down

I want to let you know

In my soul

I'll be there for sure

I won't let you down

And I won't let you down

In my soul

I'll be there for sure

And I won't let you down

Oh, I won't let you down

I want to let you know

And I won't let you down

I want to let you know

In my soul

I'll be there for sure

And I won't let you down

I won't let you down

I want to let you know

In my soul

I'll be there for sure

And I won't let you down

Oh, I won't let you down

I want to let you know

In my soul

I'll be there for sure

And I won't let you down

Oh, I won't let you down

I need you to know

You're so beautiful

Hold up, yo, look

People, people, the high life is a movie, we ain't promised a sequel

Ambition, my second album, how was you sleepin'?

Dropped the album with Seinfeld, they thought I was tweakin'

A prophet, a genius

I'm flyin' with Lena, I'm ridin' with Nina

One write for the Chi, one right where I need her

The funny thing is I'll always be single

I love me some Logan, I love me some Issa

I'll never get either, no one Venice Queens me

I'm a drunk, I'm a demon

Heaven knows I'm a dreamer

I seen Taraji and Kelvin, always hope I could be that

I fell in love with an actress actin' like she don't need me

Polarizin' the sun, underrated again

Show business will never love you the way you love it

You come and we go, they quick to forget

So every boujee event I attend, I tell 'em this

Sue me, l'm rootin' for everybody that's black, yeah, uh huh, yeah

Uh-huh, yeah

Sue me, I'm rootin' for everybody that's black, yo, yo yo, look, look

Sue me, I'm rootin' for everybody that's black

Spent 'bout two racks on handmade durags

Sue me, I'm rootin' for everybody that's black

That's everybody from sports to college class to rap, and back

I have two gentlemen in my café that are refusing to make a purchase or leave.

I've met those standards.

[04:00.67] Starbuck's, you need to call 9-1-1.

I need you to know

You're so beautiful

I need you to know

You're so beautiful, oh

Oh

Okay, sue me, I'm rootin' for everybody that's black

Everybody be asking my sixth album my last

I'm super sick of this business

My daughter missin' me, nigga

The whip is bullet repellent

But they gon' kill me with tax

Niggas really on clout, they ain't checkin' for stats

Who a decade or better, givin' niggas decadent rap

Respect is in order, hate me, better do it loud

Root for everybody black, haters say "That's crazy, wow"

That's crazy, wow

I want to let you know

In my soul

I'll be there for sure

And I won't let you down

Oh, I won't let you down

I need you to know

In my soul

I'll be there for sure

And I won't let you down

Oh, I won't let you down

No touch!

You look good, son.

Thank you.

There's one.

Your mom let you do that?

Mm.

Um,

What's up?

So, I want to talk to you about something,

and it's... it it it it's good news.

It's really good news.

So, I want you to listen to me.

Um, there are laws being passed right now.

Listen to me.

There are laws being passed right now

specifically catered to people over the age of 50

with non-violent drug offenses to be reviewed,

to be appealed, to be looked at again.

People like us?

People!

What?

Not all the same.

Well, I'm I'm letting you know that there's hope,

that there's...

There's no hope for people that look like us.

Okay?

I've got four more years left.

Right?

We're here to play chess.

Let's just play chess.

Why are you saying

make a move?

White goes first.

This motherfucker literally in this bitch dying, bro.

The motherfuckers who ain't sick, you know, like me.

They just leaving us in this bitch.

I'm about to show y'all this tent, shit.

Hold on.

That's a big tent, y'all see on the basketball court.

That tent right there.

They literally putting the dead bodies in that motherfucker.

That's what they doing.

Nah, they got this fucking law

called the Care Act for niggas like me who not sick, right?

The Care Act is for people who not a gang member,

not a sexual offender,

and is not on death row.

If you at risk of fucking catching this shit and dying.

Like, three people I know already caught this shit and died.

They can send you home on home confinement, right?

So, I went to talk to these motherfuckers to get on home confinement.

They not gonna let us on home confinement.

Why?

Because they gotta make money off of us,

because they not gonna make no money if we at home on home confinement.

You know what I'm saying?

So, I'm in this bitch.

You feel me?

And so, the nurse came in this bitch today.

I talked to this motherfucker.

This bitch tell me,

motherfucker, be prepared, you know.

Half the unit 'bout to die in this bitch.

You know, I got less than a year left.

I don't wanna die in this bitch.

You feel me?

I don't mean to cuss and none.

Y'all might not see me again.

I might catch this shit and die, so, you know.

It's crazy, man.
