1 Previously on Star - You got me out of juvie? - Yes.
I want to know Star won't get hurt by this.
Just get the pictures off her damn phone.
My daughter here found this.
Is that yours? Yes Your daughter was raised right.
Joyce Sheree.
You're the biggest thing in Atlanta right now.
This the demo Alex helped me with.
Some baby-making music right there.
A track with Roland Crane's daughter and Noah Brooks? You know how many clicks that would get? You make Black Twitter happy, you make Ayanna happy.
It's all hype and perception.
I thought it was all music and talent.
I told you we were done.
You ain't never gonna be able to leave me, girl.
Officer, stop! Lucky was my brother.
Um, I feel like what happened that night is on repeat in America.
Every week, every month.
It's weirdly normal.
How am I supposed to feel about it? These things happen all the time.
Yeah, what do you want me to say? Just talk about him.
Who is Lucky Keyes? America, wake up.
Noah Brooks' friend, Lucas Keyes, was shot point-blank - for reaching for his wallet.
- Hey, it's playing right now.
How many cases do you have to hear? How many times are you going to tell us it was misunderstood? It was based on fear? Colin Kaepernick took a knee protesting hatred.
It brings to mind the sit-ins in the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s.
We're trying to get you to understand that this is happening too often and happening over and over again.
They gon' stop this hate They don't love us 'Bout to drive me crazy They don't love us They don't see it our way They don't love us Steady killing our babies They don't love us, no Yeah, black boy sell weed The white boy snort coke The white boy go free The black boy go broke That's if the black boy see the court 'Cause usually the black boy get smoked And the country that they stole Now says the borders are closed Get up, boy.
And the country the black man built Get up.
Is the one that wants us killed Where's the love at? American dreaming All they know is hate Get back.
Make it great again American dreaming It was never great American dreaming - This dream is not for all - Get out! But for this dream Our best have died American dream American dreaming American lies American dreaming - Go away! - Back! Go! Give me the love back Get out of here! Give me the love back Now he's gonna get it.
There we go.
Now we get justice.
Get 'em out of here.
Where is the love at? - I want the love back - Give me the love back I want the love back.
If we lose the right to protest, - what do we have? - I can't do this now.
History is proof that protesting Noah.
And standing for our rights is not a choice.
It's a necessity.
I bring me Get mine, 'bout mine, go hard Looking for another like me Boy, stop I bring me Whose love is the tightest? Whose kiss is the nicest? Me Whose touch is the rightest? I bring me I bring, I bring me.
Sorry I'm late, but not really.
We're trying to work out this new song, and I think I'm onto something.
You gassed up, aren't you? Yeah, maybe, 'cause a bomb-ass artist wants to be featured on our new track.
Yeah? Who? I'm not telling the competition.
Brooks.
Can we get a smile? We're uploading pictures of you guys onto the Midtown site, so I'm gonna need you to look at her like you've seen her naked.
You ain't learned your lesson from Star choking your ass out, huh? Excuse you.
I'm pretty sure you started this.
I mean, this was your idea, right? Noah she's not even worth it.
Can you give us a minute? Look, ordinarily, I would not be thinking like this.
But maybe GiGi was right about the whole self-promotion thing.
We've been getting a lot of love on the Internet.
People like us together.
Remember when you said that I could talk to you about anything? Well, it goes both ways, Noah.
And I'm not trying to get with you.
Remember that.
Thanks, Crane.
Thank you.
I'm good.
I'm good.
Rachel let's do this.
Okay.
Let's be cute.
Inspire me.
Come on, you guys just started dating.
You're in love.
Little closer, come on.
Little kiss wouldn't hurt.
It's cute.
It's adorable, actually.
But sexy would be great, too.
Hey, Star.
Hey.
What's up? How was your fake date? I thought you didn't care.
Come here.
- Come here, come here.
- Don't grab me.
If you mad, say you mad.
The only thing that I care about is that my girl's wasting time with you when we got work to do.
Don't worry about it.
I got somewhere to be, anyway.
Give me a latte.
Skinny.
Easy foam.
- And whatever she wants.
- Right away, Ms.
Floyd.
Can I have a hot apple cider? Miss Carlotta's not gonna like that you have custody over me.
I don't care what Carlotta thinks.
It's temporary.
Yeah, I don't think we should tell her yet.
That's your choice.
Hi, Dad.
Yes, I've seen quarterly reports.
I thought I had a year.
Then I'll just have to show you how important Midtown is before the end of the quarter.
Bastard.
- Is everything okay? - No.
Hey, yo.
This PR move with Alex and Noah? That's smart business.
This your idea? No.
I don't like it.
Get that thing out of my driveway.
What, you still bent out of shape that my boy's got a spot in the showcase? What was the point of sleeping with her? What? With who? You know when she done tapping that ass, she gonna be done with your boys.
Hey.
- Where you been? - Where you been? Not hooking.
I'm about to put her ass in check, or she getting out of my house.
She is a grown woman, Lottie.
I want this hooptie moved by tonight.
- Yeah.
- Hey, Brody, how's life? Why'd you trash the room? I told you you'd get your money.
Yeah, well, I want it now.
Pay me in cash, or pay me in blood.
You want it so bad, then take my damn blood.
No problem.
We know where your daughter lives.
What'd you say? Hello Oh Oh Oh Noah.
Oh, you deaf now? You missed three studio sessions.
And how many times I got to tell you to stop drinking? Through this world alone There's no sickness Toil or danger You think you caught heat off that last scandal at your old record label? Wasn't nobody coming for you but Midtown.
Nobody.
You been blessed to have Ayanna's crazy ass believe in you.
I don't care about this label.
I'm going there I watched my best friend gunned down in front of me.
You know what that's like? Going over Yes, I do.
And Lucky won't be the last black man randomly shot by cops.
Life goes on.
Man, get your ass up.
Get up! Oh Oh Yo, you need to thank God that it wasn't you.
Now, you got an hour to get sober, say what you need to say to your boy, and then I want your ass back in that studio.
I know dark clouds Will gather 'round me Don't let them take you, too.
Is rough and steep But beautiful fields Lie just beyond me Where souls redeemed their vigils keep.
Listen, Ayanna, I get it.
I understand.
It was a tough quarter.
But you can't just move the showcase date up.
We made the deal with the streaming services.
And Angel and I aren't exactly ready yet.
Get ready.
This showcase has to launch a breakout star who will keep our doors open.
Make it happen or you won't have a job.
And neither will I.
You wanted to see me? Your girls are going to be in the showcase.
They've got two weeks to get ready.
I thought it was a month away.
I mean, we'll be ready.
I knew you'd come around.
Took your damn time, but still.
I do have one concern, though, with Simone.
- What about her? - Can she handle the pressure? Like I told you, you worry about your label, I'll worry about Simone.
No, I like it.
I like it with the dress.
Deyvar, you like this lip? It's too dark.
No, it's not.
Shut your ass.
Yerp.
- What's popping? - Hey, Joyce.
How's it going? This is Star.
The white girl from the party the other night.
What's up, white girl? I was wondering what time you'd be able to roll to the studio tonight.
It's been crazy.
I've been in, like, three different countries in three days.
- This life is no joke.
- We love you, - Joyce Sheree, I love you.
- Oh, my God.
- Hey, who's that? - I'm sorry.
That's my little sister Simone.
You're gonna meet her tonight.
All right, bae, I'll see you soon.
- She's in.
- Well, we need more studio time.
You're gonna need more than that, because you are in the showcase.
- What? - Yeah.
- Yes.
- Oh, my God.
But the only thing is this: Ayanna pushed the date up.
She wants to do this big PR thing.
- And we just gotta be hot.
- We can do that.
We got heat.
We got Joyce Sheree.
- You did? - Yeah.
That's what I'm talking about.
See, you know what, you know what? Sit down for a minute.
Take a minute and think about how far y'all come.
God is good.
We did it.
Yeah, we did it! Finally, we can stop with all the stunts, trying to get Ayanna's attention.
You don't gotta do that fake relationship with Noah anymore.
Why? Have you not been seeing all the Take Three fans we've been gaining since I've been doing this? Yeah, I just thought you'd be happy to focus your attention back on the music.
I can manage both music and the PR.
- It's called being an artist.
- Okay.
You're just mad 'cause you're not the one with Noah.
What are you talking about? You always want to be the reason we're getting attention.
I'm over it.
Damn.
- Come in.
- How you been? This Lucky shooting got everybody spun.
But I'm hangin'.
What's up? The girls need studio time.
I heard they're in the show.
You come a long way from that chick that busted in Ayanna's office.
Nah, I'm still that chick.
So, what they planning? You'll see.
Oh.
What time you looking at? Maybe in, uh hold on.
Hey, Elliot.
Uh-huh.
No, I haven't.
No, you doing the right thing.
Thanks for calling me.
Everything okay? My daughter ain't been to work in a week.
I got to go.
Just get the girls studio time for today.
- Yeah.
- Okay.
I'm here.
Let's get money.
- Get the side boob here.
- You want to give us a second? Star's phone was clean.
There's no trace of Hunter anywhere on it.
Well, look harder.
I want my money.
Don't make me hurt you, lady.
Go ahead.
I dare you.
You've always been a gambler, haven't you? And then when you had nothing to bet with, you bet with other people's money.
So now you are in deep with the loan sharks.
And they'll kill you.
So your little girl has something that belongs to me and my son.
Get it.
Sven, come back in here.
Do you ever get the feeling - Something's wrong? - Something's wrong When all around you see The way things going on.
So, what do you think? In your early stuff you went there.
You talked about your pops, your hood.
- What you trying to say with this? - It's just a song, man.
You going up against folks that's hungry.
And unlike you, this ain't their last shot.
You got to find a way to shine.
That's what I think.
Hey.
I ain't in the mood for you right now.
I ain't in the mood for you, either.
Come in here.
I don't stand in line I don't pay for clubs that, yeah But I wait for you All right, all right, all right, I got, I got to go.
Come on, I got to work.
I know.
We're all in here stressing, trying to get these songs done.
Hmm.
That's why I needed that quick pick-me-up.
- Mm-hmm.
- You did, too, clearly.
Yeah.
I'm so in love, so in love Stay right here.
There's no one above Wh-What are you doing? What do you think I'm doing? - No, no.
Wait, wait, no.
- What? Stay right here.
Right there.
- You gonna get me in trouble.
- Right there we go.
No, I'm not.
- You got it? - Yeah, I got it.
All right.
I just needed something to keep.
Mmm.
I got to go, too.
We got work to do.
Joyce is coming by the studio tonight.
Wait.
Y'all got Joyce Sheree? That's the homie.
We're gonna talk about her performing - at the showcase with us.
- Oh.
We got a spot, by the way.
Mmm.
Me, too.
But I ain't got no stunt like Joyce.
Aw.
You used to be the King of the A.
- Mmm.
- Think of one.
- Used to be.
Okay.
- Mm-hmm.
Yeah, well, I'm the king of that ass, though.
That's all that matters right now.
Uh-uh.
All right, all right, all right.
You about to get me started all over again.
Oh, 'cause you're not in the mood for me right now.
Right.
No.
I'm not in the mood.
You right.
- Got it.
- Yeah.
Yeah.
What you need to do is stop drinking.
Hey.
I was hoping you'd do my head.
What you want done to it? Well, as you can see, it's pretty thick.
Just needs to be taken care of.
Hmm.
- I know who you is.
- Mm-hmm.
I'm sure.
And I heard you were very good at your job.
What's your name, anyway? You know who I am.
And I know what went down with you and them girls.
You think Carlotta ain't tell me? Honestly, I just came for a haircut.
I don't cut white boys' hair.
Hey, Bruce.
Hi.
- Damn.
- I need another shot.
My ass still ain't sitting right.
Bitch, are you crazy? You cannot say that out loud here.
Don't nobody know I be sitting here, doing ass shots.
You trying to get me fired? Could I use a toilet before I go? It's around the corner.
Make it quick.
Yes, ma'am.
You cannot come here talking about no ass shots at my job, girl.
- I was gonna tell you.
- Yeah, no, you weren't.
I really was.
I just wanted to make sure I actually liked him.
Are you ready to jump into something this quick? - Hunter's body ain't even cold yet.
- Shh.
Come here, Simone.
I actually like him.
He's really cool.
Got a bit of a drinking problem, - but we can fix that.
- Just like you could fix Hunter? It's like you haven't learned your lesson yet.
You can't fix people, Star.
No matter how famous they can get you.
It's not about fame with him.
That's why I don't even want anybody knowing.
So, is that why - you don't want Alex and Noah together? - Yeah.
Yeah, you a real trip.
A trip to Bermuda.
Hey.
What? Um We overheard Miss Carlotta telling Bruce that you were shoplifting.
Which is weird, 'cause you got money, so why would you need to do that? It was a rush.
I can't explain it.
Cotton! Cotton, get out here.
- What's wrong? - She ain't been at work in a week.
Ain't picking up the phone.
She's under all this financial debt to get right with Elliot.
And me.
The last time she was under this kind of pressure, she started using.
I mean, look, she did tell me this guy was about to get out from prison.
She was nervous about that, she told me that.
Well, what else she say? What was he in for? Stop eating my damn food.
I know I know what I want and I know I'm turning you on, so We gon' ignore ya alarm And do it again in the mornin' - I know I know what I want and - Yeah.
I know you're turning me on, so We gon' ignore ya alarm and Do it again in the mornin'.
Yeah, that's the bridge.
We can try it.
- It's simple.
- Oh, Joyce is here mad early.
- Cool.
Cool.
- She's here.
You got cramps? I got a headache.
Studio C? White girl from the party.
Hey.
Hey.
- How you doing, Mama? - Good.
Good to see you.
- Good to see you.
- I'm Alex.
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you, too.
- I'm Simone.
- I'm Joyce.
Nice to meet you, shyness.
Yeah, you, um, Noah's new boo, huh? It's all good.
Y'all mad cute on the Gram.
Thanks.
- J, what's up? - Hey! - What's up, Mama? - What's poppin'? - Good to see you.
- Oh, you look good.
- Thank you, thank you.
- Yeah.
Speaking of looking good, I met your girl.
- She a ten.
- Yeah, she is.
Way better than that last ho you was dealing with.
- Chill out, man, come on - You know, Noah like the ho types.
- For real? - Oh, for real? - Don't embarrass me.
- You did a good job.
- I'm proud of you, kid.
- Thank you.
So, the track's all ready for you.
All you got to do is hop in the booth and put down your verse.
What, Noah ain't tell y'all? - Noah ain't tell us what? - What? I'm-a hop on his joint.
I mean, I'm still open to hear y'all joint, but this is my boy.
I told him I'd be there for him.
Um, plus, he said it's for, - like, some, uh - Showcase.
Yeah, some showcase.
Something like that.
Oh, he said it was for the showcase.
Got it.
I got to take this right away.
I'm-I'm sorry.
- Nice meeting you.
Nice meeting you.
- Nice meeting you, too.
- Thank you, Joyce.
Okay, see ya.
- All right.
All right, bae.
- You serious right now? Really? - I just gave her the option, all right? She chose.
It happens all the time.
How did he even know she was singing on our track? I didn't tell him.
Back to the drawing board.
Yo, you told him, didn't you? Man, I told you he was gonna play your ass.
That's what happens when you try to get ahead in the game.
What, you got a GPS on that car? Hey, that pony used to be my kid before Cotton.
- What y'all want? - Hey, is that your ride outside? 'Cause I was wondering if, uh, you could move it up a little bit.
Open the door.
- You got the wrong house.
- Who's at the door, baby? - Your mom and your daddy.
- Hey, get your ass back upstairs! If you gonna use it, then use it.
Shoot this - Baby! Ma! - I'm tired of rescuing you.
Now, get your ass in the car before I shoot you next! You stay away from my daughter.
- Baby, I'm s - Why didn't you tell me your family was crazy?! You should call a doctor, baby.
Okay, got it.
Thanks.
So, contacted one of my dad's friends to get a name.
And nothing.
Can't we just rework the track? I would if I didn't build that entire track around Joyce Sheree.
I promise, you guys, I didn't say anything to him.
Oh, we know.
Don't we know, Star? He's already got more street cred than us.
He's got his PR stunt with you, and now he has a track with Joyce.
That's everything he needs to win.
He's looking out for number one.
Just like we always do.
If we don't do the best in this competition, we don't get the tour.
And then that's it.
We ass out.
Where you going? I need some air.
Hey, you.
I didn't invite you in my car.
Look what I found.
You must've dropped it in my car the night of the party.
Huh.
Thanks.
Guess I can stop using this janky old one.
So, did y'all ever get Joyce Sheree to sing on that track? Dude I was dealing with stole her - and had her sing on his instead.
- Hmm.
I guess I have you to thank for yet another terrible choice in a man.
I'm tired of apologizing to you, Star.
You want me out, I'm out.
Yes, I do.
- Say hello to the fans, boo.
- Ah, what's up? - Yeah, we go way back.
- Way back.
Way back into time.
All right, we gonna finish this record, y'all.
We gonna get back at y'all.
Peace! Yo, social media is a grind.
- I know.
- For real.
You got to, like, keep your followers happy and keep your brand up.
Look, I know you just lost your boy.
You're gonna always be looking for ways to escape it.
How you escape it? I got my vices.
You gonna get me in trouble.
- Aw, hell nah! - What? Black Twitter's going in on you right now.
What? You cheating on Alex with a white chick? Seriously? You have a big problem, Noah Brooks.
I already have white people looking at you as some type of police-inciting thug.
And now you want your black female audience to view you as a dog, too? We really talking about social media right now? Sit your ass down.
The only thing keeping you in the media No, scratch that On this label is this PR stunt.
Now, you will clean this up before the showcase, or don't bother coming at all.
You really got me out here looking dumb as hell.
I wasn't trying to do that to you.
Did you try not to steal Joyce, too? Just when I was starting to like your sorry ass.
You cannot just go around shooting people.
- What if he calls the police? - He ain't calling no police! Coming straight out of prison! Trust! You know, you've been real disrespectful ever since you came out of there.
Yes, I lied to you about Jahil being your father.
Look at him.
But we both thought it was best you not be involved - in what he was caught up in.
- Look, it was my idea, Cotton.
You better stay away from that man.
You on probation.
You're gonna end up right back in there if you're not careful, - you know that? - He protected me.
If not So what? You think you owe him something? I need him.
You need him?! Let me tell you something.
You better stay away from his black ass.
You hear me? We gon' ignore ya alarm and do it again I like it.
You guys like it? Joyce Sheree who, girl? - You killed this verse, Simone.
- Thank you, thank you.
'Sup, girls? You know what, - I can't even right now.
- Yeah.
I hate when boys think they're cute when they're not.
Don't you got somewhere else to be? Somebody else's ideas to steal? That wasn't personal That was business.
The chick who leaked the video, on the other hand, she got personal, she got messy, and she got desperate.
I think using pillow talk to get a leg up on us in the competition is pretty personal.
And messy.
And desperate.
Oh, my God.
So y'all is really just gonna argue about me, over me? Well, I got your argument.
J.
I'm so sorry.
I don't really want y'all arguing Yo, you Joyce? - I'm-I'm-I'm - Are you good? I'm good.
I'm - You sure? - I'm-I'm sure.
Okay.
J.
Oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God.
- Wait, wait, wait, wait.
- What's in that cup? - What's in that cup? - It's lean.
- That could kill her, man.
- She must've mixed it - with something.
We got to call 911.
- Joyce.
, - She mixed it with more lean.
- Joyce, wake up.
Joyce, wake up! I can't lose somebody else.
Please, please, please wake up.
Please, please.
She's conscious.
Hopefully, her manager can talk her into rehab.
Noah, thank you for staying with her until the paramedics arrived.
Oh, that-that was so scary.
I mean, 'cause she's my idol.
Joyce.
I wanted her dream, 'cause she has it all, and I thought that What if I can't even get my life together? Breathe.
You're having a panic attack.
Is this why you took my pills? - I, uh - Where are they? Okay.
I thought I just thought that maybe they would help me focus, - 'cause you take 'em - Because I know what I'm doing.
I don't want what happened to Joyce to happen to you.
- Do you understand me? - Okay.
Yes.
Yes, I do.
Just a minute.
Come here.
Take this.
- What is that? - It's a Xanax.
It will help bring you down, help you to relax.
No alcohol.
You're still feeling anxious after four hours, - I'll give you another one.
- Okay.
You'll be fine.
You good? Let's get back to work.
You know this is not your studio.
- I didn't know y'all were still in here.
- Well, we are.
Doesn't matter anyway.
I can't give Midtown what they want.
Am I supposed to feel sorry about that? Nah.
I don't want nobody feeling sorry for me.
Lucky would've been told me to stop whining by now.
Lucky was counting on me.
We used to hustle together.
When he heard me sing, he was like, "Bro, you ain't slingin' no more.
" You ever have somebody hear your music and just believe in you like that? Yeah.
Star.
I miss him.
I miss making my music.
And those two things, they're all tied up together.
I can't catch a break.
What's up, guys? I'm sure you all have seen the video of Noah's ex.
She's trippin' because she wants him back.
And I'm here to tell you And to let her know That we're good.
So stay out of our business.
Okay? You just caught a break.
Hey, it's me.
I'm just washing up.
Joyce Sheree overdosed in the studio.
Yeah, I heard.
Angel told me.
It's crazy, right? Kind of makes you wonder what kind of life we fighting for these girls to get into.
Guess what it is being a manager, right? Yeah, a parent, too.
Anyway, look, I'm, uh I'm gonna be moving out first thing in the morning.
- I'm just working on the engine.
- Actually I was thinking you shouldn't leave.
Not like that.
But just to help keep Cotton good, you know? Yeah, I can do that.
Hey, Carlotta.
- Figured I'd come check on you.
- Oh, hey.
- Hey, man.
What's up? - Hey.
Maurice, right? Jahil.
You Andy and Angel's guy, right? - Yeah.
- Am I interrupting? No, I just I live in the back.
Good night.
How's your daughter doing? Oh, that's not an easy answer.
I looked at her today, and all I saw was the old me.
Which was? A lost young woman making bad choices.
People got to make their own mistakes.
That's how we grow.
No, she can't.
She-she can't make no more mistakes.
If she does, she goes back to prison.
- Oh.
- And to make it a family affair, me and her daddy both have records.
Her dad? Jahil is, um my daughter's father.
Old boy? Some drama, huh? Wow.
I know you're ready to go now.
You've been through a lot.
It makes you strong, beautiful.
If this world were mine I would place at your feet The only place I want to go is to your bedroom.
All that I own You've been so good to me If this world were Mine I'd give you the flowers The birds and the bees And it'd be your love beside me Baby, I'm so sorry.
Just please call me back.
I don't know what came over me.
I didn't mean to hurt you, Star.
Remember when we first met? Remember who I was then? That's the real me.
That's still me.
I swear it was just that one time.
It was just that one time.
I love you.
It was just that one time.
I'm sorry.
Baby, I'm so sorry.
Just pick up the phone! If this world were mine I would make you a king With wealth untold You could have anything.
- Have you tried it, rich girl? - Are you serious? - No, no.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I know you all hear me talk a lot about how pressure makes diamonds.
It also kills talent, and I don't want that to happen to any of you.
I want you and Midtown to soar.
So we are going to open big and loud and strong with a group opening number.
Here is a copy of the track.
- Noah Brooks.
- You each have a verse.
You are going to close the showcase - Here you go.
- With Alex in a duet.
That supposed to mean you're performing with us and him? It does.
They are the biggest thing we have going here at Midtown, and they will help bring eyes to all of you.
Good luck, ladies and gentlemen.
Congrats.
All right.
Alex.
- Alex.
Alex! - What? Look, we cannot do this showcase together.
I feel like I'm taking something away from my own group.
Trust me, I'm not trying to get in between you and your girls, but I think we got to do what Ayanna wants.
- Do we? Okay.
- Wait, wait, wait.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Listen.
I never got a chance to thank you for earlier.
For everything.
Thank you.
Is this your way of convincing me to do the duet? 'Cause if it is, you really suck at this I'm sorry.
I shouldn't I shouldn't have done that.
No, you shouldn't have.
Um, hey, Jax, can I check my levels real quick? Do you think about the times that we're together? - Yeah, it sounds good.
- Let me hear what it sounds like.
