EXT:
SAL'S FAMOUS PIZZERIA--DAYDa Mayor sweeps the sidewalk, happy as can be. As soon as
he finishes he can get that money and get that bottle.
EXT:
STOOP--DAYA group of youths sit on a stoop, waiting for someone. They
are CEE, PUNCHY, and the lone female, ELLA.
ELLA:
What's keeping him?
PUNCHY:
You call him, then.
Ella stands up and yells.
ELLA:
Yo, Ahmad!
PUNCHY:
I coulda done dat.
ELLA:
Yo, Ahmad!
She looks up into his window, then sits down.
ELLA:
Punchy, if ya want to do some more
screaming, be my guest. I'm too
through.
The door swings open at the top of the stoop and AHMAD
appears.
AHMAD:
Who's yelling my name?
ELLA:
Punchy told me to.
AHMAD:
Don't listen to him, it will get ya
in trouble.
ELLA:
Heard that, Punchy.
Ahmad sits down with them.
AHMAD:
Ella, you have a brain, use it.
In the BG, we hear the dum-dum-dum of a giant box. The
sound gets louder as the box gets closer. The youths look
down the block and see a tall young man coming towards them.
He has a very distinct walk, it's more like a bop. This is
RADIO RAHEEM. The size of his box is tremendous and one has
to think, how does he carry something that big around with
him? It must weigh a ton, and it seems like the sidewalk
shakes as the rap music blares out. The song we hear is the
MEDIUM SHOT--RADIO RAHEEM
Radio Raheem stops in front of the group, looks at them, and
turns down the volume. It's quiet again.
RADIO RAHEEM:
Peace, y'all.
ELLA:
Peace, Radio Raheem.
CEE:
Peace.
10.
PUNCHY:
You the man, Radio Raheem.
AHMAD:
It's your world.
CEE:
In a big way.
Radio Raheem nods and turns up the volume. Way up.
AHMAD:
My people. My people.
Radio Raheem waves to Mister Señor Love Daddy as he walks by.
INT:
WE LOVE CONTROL BOOTH--DAYMister Señor Love Daddy gives Radio Raheem a clenched-fist
salute.
EXT:
FRUIT-N-VEG DELIGHT--DAYDa Mayor walks into a newly opened fruit and vegetable deli
stand that is owned by Koreans.
INT:
FRUIT-N-VEG DELIGHT--DAYDa Mayor is looking for his beer in the refrigerated cases,
his ice-cold beer.
DA MAYOR:
Where's the Bud? Where's the Bud?
KOREAN CLERK:
No mo' Bud. You look what we have
and buy.
DA MAYOR:
No more Bud. What kind of joint is
this? How come no mo' Bud? Doctor,
this ain't Korea, China, or wherever
you come from. Get some Budweiser
in this motherf***er.
