New stuff? What are you talking about?

Wait. What are you talking about?

I'm talking about Duke!

Oh. No, look, forget college, man.

So check this out. This promoter

got a hold of my mix tape.

The Achievement, Volume One. Right?

So, he's putting together this tour of

young MCs in the fall and the winter

called The Freshman Class, right?

Entire East Coast and Cincinnati!

Trent. People don't go to Cincinnati.

They leave Cincinnati.

The only catch is

(SIGHS) I'm not 18 yet,

so I'm gonna need you to sign this contract.

Because the Prodi-G is still a minor.

In age only.

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.

You got into Duke today. You're a Blue Devil now!

So? So that's your dream!

No, that's your dream.

I ain't going to no lame college

when I can be on the road, making money!

I ain't signing that contract.

You gotta give it a rest.

I'm just saying, this is my big break, man!

And if I don't have the contract signed in five days,

they're gonna have some wack

ringtone rapper from St. Louis.

Trent, you have the rest of your life to go on the road.

But for these next four years...

Four years?

(LAUGHS) You're joking, right? You're joking.

Like, you know how long that is in hip-hop years?

Aw, come on, Malcolm, look at this. Look.

It's a blueprint for a house of success.

All built on a strong, strong flow.

A strong flow. Yeah.

Well, you need an education.

What are you gonna do when that flow dries up?

I'll just transition into acting.

Oh, man. Every time you open your mouth,

you prove to me just how important

an education really is.

You're lucky your mother's not here

to hear you talk that crazy talk.

Oh, Mom. Let's call Mom. She'll

let me. Let's ring Mom up.

Go ahead, call her.

When you tell her that you want to throw away college,

she's probably gonna bust that

little vein in her forehead.

It's gonna pop!

Yeah... (IMITATING POPPING)

Okay. But not when she sees the

mansion I'm gonna buy her.

Ha! Come on.

Only thing I'm signing is a check to Duke. End of story.

Now if you'll excuse me, I've gotta go to work.

You know, some of us work.

I'm on the grind. You feel me?

I feel you.

You feel me? Yeah, I feel you.

(IMITATING HIP-HOP BEAT)

You feel? Yeah.

But I'm talking swimming pools.

You feeling private security.

Come on, we can do it together, Malcolm!

Damn!

(MOBILE PHONE RINGING)

REMBRANDT:
Trent. What's up, man?

Hey, did he sign it?

No, he didn't sign it yet.

All right, so phase two. Ambush

the man when he's at his grind.

He'll give you an autograph just to get rid of you.

Yeah. Ambush him at his grind. I'm feeling you.

That's right!

See? That's why I keep you on payroll.

Hands away from your chest. You're
