How you just invite yourself to a gig as security :skip:

Honestly bro that's the easiest "in" if you want to be real about it. We always joke about the "weed carrier" of the group, but that nikka ain't there for show. The weed carrier is not the lame in the group. He's actually the guy in the crew, who MADE his position in the crew as the plug.

I can't speak for everyone, or every rapper, but the fact that ONLY Tracy is Al's security at this point is pretty suspect.

That's the weird thing about Al, Earn, Darius, and Tracy. Paper Boi is the artist. Earn is his manager. But they don't actually have a crew. It became apparent to me in the last episode when he got robbed (again). Paper Boi doesn't really hold any weight in his hood. People keep fukkn with him and there's no fear of retaliation.

He also does this naive balancing act where he tells you he's a regular dude, but then walks around dolo like his celebrity status should buy him invincibility and invisibility. Some folks are going to think he got robbed last episode because he was paper boi. No, he got robbed because he was walking like a dumb ass in a wooded area.

Also Al and Paper Boi clearly have different ideas about the direction his career arc should take. It's a story line that I think Glover and the writer's are clearly trying to illustrate to younger viewers.

Al is trying to get PB to take the college tour route like wale, big sean, j cole etc. That's the complex, internet blog, Clark County route.

However PB shuns that crowd and those appearances. Ok then, what happened last season? You had to deal with janky promoters, shoot outs, and the cops.

Earn* said this was the first time he's seen PB smile in awhile. Did dude even realize he had a black college crowd? <-- gem they're trying to drop

I also think Earn* pocketing the hotel fee was a fukk up. I think the lesson they were trying to convey for up and comers is to not cut corners. Booking a show and traveling is business first. It's not only about fukking groupies and having a good time. Shacking up with some chick on a college campus is such a freshman year homecoming move. Every show you book presents that opportunity. Both of them need to stop thinking with their dikks and focus on the business aspect. Is this a hobby or a career?
