I'm in between homes right now, but my last house was dope.

Yeah I'm telling real stories, but if you pick up a documentary on strippers, you're going to want to see some stripping, so we definitely got that in there.

I'm a rapper trying to be an actor.

I don't think any gay dude is gangsta, period.

It's been so long since I was in a real fight.

Now we just showin' and provin' that there's a ghetto everywhere you go.

We just wanna see where we stand at right now with our fans.

One girl who stands out was this Miami stripper. She still lives with her mother and father, and they know she strips. They call her by her stripper name, Freaky Red.

Somebody wrote a script around us, but Dustin Abraham came with the best one.

I'm a peaceful dude.

I wanna sit behind the scenes and see nothin' but the greens.

There's probably a bunch of Power Stripe floating through the Def Jam offices right now.

Rap is a gimmick, but I'm for the hip-hop, the culture.

The most I've smoked in a day was over an ounce, in Germany.

We smoked a lot of cloves.

I want to do a documentary about strippers, 'cause it's a moneymaker.

The North Koreans or Chinese may have a million men in uniform but it's about how you perform.

In your 20s, people call at 2 a.m. and yell, 'Are you up?' into the answering machine. Now, someone calls after 8 p.m., and my boyfriend is like, 'Who is that? Who could be calling at this hour?'
