to the semachai.

I didn't even tell you

how much it pays, Pootie.

Twenty million dollars

to sign with us for just one year.

Oh, what do you say,

Pootie?

I got to say

the nay-no, my brother.

- Wa-da-tah.

- Wa-da-tah?

How do you say the nay-no

to 20 million? Why?

Maybe Pootie don't wanna sign

because he knows you're full of it.

Yeah. First of all, he knows

that cereal's full of sugar.

And number two, that's not all

that you guys sell.

You sell cigarettes, whiskey,

Bad Time burgers, switchblades.

It also says here that you will no

longer have Pootie doing PSA's...

telling the kids to eat

healthy and to be smart.

Well, sure, exclusivity

goes without saying.

I'm sure your ugly intentions

go without saying.

Take a walk, money man.

See, my damie, Pootie Tang don't

wa-da-tah to the shama cow...

'cause that's a cama

cama leepa-chaiii, dig?

Hey, Tang, to you, they're children.

To me, they're dollar signs.

Cover your grill.

Sa da tay!

Aw, man!

You funny, man.

You are a funny man.

You's a wild boy.

Pootie smacked the taste

out of Frank's mouth.

Oh, man, that

was funny to us.

But there was one man

who was not laughing at all.

Pootie Tang goes out there

and makes everybody love him.

He tells them

not to buy my products.

He steals from me.

And what do I do?

I say take my money. Here.

Take it. Fine. Huh?

And he says no.

I guess you're wondering,

who is this b*tch here?

That's lreenie,

Dick Lecter's main squeeze...

and the most dangerous

woman on the planet.

Now, she don't look it,

but she can bring any man down.

I know what makes

Pootie Tang...

tick, tock, tick.

That's cool. All right.

Cut the drums too.

It's all gone now, Pootie.

What do you wanna do?

Lepa time.

What's he got on his mind?

We're starting

from scratch, I guess.

Pootie knows what Pootie do.

This is gonna be good.

Okay, Pootie, I'll play back

the levels the way you set them.

No instruments, no vocals,

no levels, everything silent.

Set it on me. Bleed.

Pootie don't need no words.

Don't even need no music.

We have got a hit, baby.

I like it.

Everybody seems to like it.

But right now I got somethin'

I know you all gonna like.

We got the world premiere

from Pootie Tang...

and you know it's gonna

be out of this world.

That's right. 'Causeyou

"Sine Your Pitty

on the Runny Kine."

Well, you all gonna

love this new one.

The new one is called--

So let's listen up to the new
