Hustle & Flow
See...
...man ain't like a dog.
And when I say "man,"
as in mankind, not man as in men.
Because men,
well, we a lot like a dog.
You know, we like to piss on things.
Sniff a bitch when we can.
Even get a little pink hard-on
the way they do.
We territorial as shit, you know,
But man...
...he know about death.
Got him a sense of history.
Got religion.
See...
...a dog...
Man, a dog don't know shit
about no birthdays or Christmas
or Easter bunny, none of that shit.
And one day
God gonna come calling,
so, you know,
they going through life carefree.
But people like you and me, man,
we always guessing.
Wondering, "What if?"
You know what I mean?
So when you say to me,
"Hey, I don't think
I gotta say, baby, I don't think
we need to be doing this neither,
but we ain't gonna get no move on
in this world, lying around in the sun,
licking our ass all day.
I mean, we man.
I mean, you a woman and all,
but we man.
So with this said...
...you tell me what it is
you wanna do with your life.
I don't know.
- I mean, I guess I could, like...
- Hold up a second.
What's happening with you, man?
You like what you see, huh?
Look here, baby,

Twenty in the front, 40 in the back.
Hello?
Why don't you walk over there
and explain it to that motherfucker.
- Damn.

I'm Dennis Phillippi, and the answer...
- Hot 107. 1, number one for hip-hop...
- Nothing but a bunch of jive and junk.
Coming up, your chance
to win a trip to Las Vegas.
Holler at your boy, it's Hot 107. 1.
- Please! Fucking with me, man! Hey!
- Hey, hey, hey!
Hey, what the hell?!

Deranged son of a bitch!
- You all right, Nola?
- Thanks, D.
Come on in, man. Come on in here.
Damn, man, you gotta

I'm the only
motherfucking security in here.
Sure is good
not to be cracking heads.
So, what you need, man,

Ounce will do good.

Thought you may want
to get you some money.
- Big company?
- Yeah.

- You know Skinny Black?
Skinny Black.
Yeah, that...
Yeah, I know who Skinny is, man.
I know Skinny from
way back in the day.
See, I know Skinny
when he was hustling
his underground tapes
down at the drive-in,
out the back of his Cutlass.
Not no more he ain't.
Last one he put out went platinum.
- Platinum?
- Yeah.
- That's more special than gold, right?
- But he's still in Memphis.
He and his brother Tigga hook up with
their friends every Fourth of July.
I shut the place down,
make it all private for them.
And they just buy me out.
- Bullshit.
- No shit.
Yo, Skinny rolling like that, man?
Best get your ass up here
with that good shit.
Those boys don't want
none of this dirt weed.
So you're trying
to hurt my feelings, right?
- Just trying to help out a friend.
- For sure, man.
All right, all right, all right,
goddamn it,
we're going into a 2-for-1
for all you balling motherfuckers.
You gonna love this shit.
