• 3:03
  Speaker 1: all want to see him succeed. He's the hero.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, people, I think people are identifying create
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: in a lot of ways, you know, like trying to
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: do the right thing with a bunch of crazy people
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: around you. Yeah, so you know that's that's kind of
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: Craig in the nutshell. You know, he's trying to do
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: the right thing, but the people around him more.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: But I okay, I will say Cube, you know, watching
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: that film again, and you know, I believe it's one
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: of the great comedy franchises in movie history. Personally, you
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: create such a cult following and so much of that
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: dialogue people say over and over again. I mean, it's
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: it's really baked into our culture now. And you were
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: twenty five years old when you came up with this
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: idea with DJ Pooh. You were known as a rapper,
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: of course, and not only you know, with NWA, but
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: you went out and made four solo albums that are
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: still regarded as one of the strongest four album runs
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: in hip hop history. But where did you come up
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: with the idea that I'm going to go into the
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: film business. I'm going to write a movie, I'm gonna
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: star in it. I mean, how did that come about?
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: Being a fan of movies, looking at people like Robert Townsend,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: what he was able to do with Hollywood Shuffle, looking
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: at and Living Color every week on TV. And also
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: it was so many hardcore movies to come out about
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: south central Los Angeles, counton Watts, you know, from Colors
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: to Boys in the Hood to Minister Society, And I
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: was like, you know that, that to me wasn't the
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: way I remember growing up. We had a lot of fun.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: It was crazy, but it was fun happen. So I
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: wanted to. I wanted to kind of, you know, give
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: that perspective of how we looked at some of these
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: things that was happening. Yeah, you know, because you didn't
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: laugh at a lot of that, you cry, so.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know you it was such a crossover hit too,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: because I think at its core you made relatable characters
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: and it was a family that cared about each other,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: themes that we all relate to. And then of course
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: you had, you know, the young characters that were hanging
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: out trying to find their mission and purpose. But such
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: strong characters, such great actors that many of whom went
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: on to big careers that I would say you had
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: a hand in launching Regina King, Nia Long, Tommy Lister,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Bernie Mack, Kat Williams, Terry Crews. I mean, this was
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: like going to school in cinema, and I don't think
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: anybody had eye expectations. I'm curious how you pitch this
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: to the studio and how they gave you money, because
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm thinking about They always say Seinfeld was
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: a show about nothing, but Jerry Seinfeld said, no, that's
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: not true. We pitched it as a story about how
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: a comic finds his material. But can you recall how
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: you took this to New Line and what you said
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: this movie was going to be and how they greenlt it.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, with a movie like this, it's extremely
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: relatable because everybody can do it. Like this is a
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: movie that everybody can actually do. You can actually go
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: sit on the porch with your crazy, plain crazy cousin
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: and trip off everything going on in the neighborhood. So
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: I think it's super relatable in that way. And what's
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: cool if we didn't pitch it too new On we
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: were we were we had a mind made up. We
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: was going to go make this movie in a super
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: low budget way like Robert Townsend did with credit cards
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: and Max and now you know, every you know, piece
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: of credit we can get a hold of borrowing. I
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: don't think we would have stole money, but we was
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: dedicated to making the movie. And an executive named Helena
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: always mess up her last name, so I ain't even
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: gonna try it. But she got wind of the script
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: maybe through Pat Sharvinnay, who was my manager at the time,
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: was a producer on the movie, and once she read it,
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: she was asking how much we needed to make it,
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: and she wanted to do it through New Wine and
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: I immediately said no because I don't want them to
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: touch the script because I felt like they would not
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: know how to make this movie and they would just
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: mess it up and take all the personality out the movie.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: And so we made a deal where they they just
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: gave me the money, all the money I needed, and
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: told me told me to bring them back a finished movie.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: No way.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: So they kind of gave you.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: So they gave you what essentially creative control final cut, not.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: Final cut, but total creative control on how we shot it.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: And you know, final cut was something they you know,
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: they had a few notes, but at the end of
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: the day, it was so tight and funny. Yep, you
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: know it wasn't much off from what what we had
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: turned in anyway.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: What was it initially rated? Braided are or did you
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: have problems with you know, the board there, because I
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: mean that could have gone either way, that could have
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: gone n C seventeen.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: Right, I don't know if it was hard enough to
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: go in C seventeen. Yeah, I think they was. Back
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: then it was all about you know, too much sex,
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: too much blood or gore. They would go to n
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: C seventeen, but ours was just profanity. Yeah, and so
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: that's right.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: You didn't have any hardcore violence or anything, no bloodshed.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: You had a couple of fights and yes, mister Jones,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: your dad would say, you know, that's how you settle
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: things and everybody walks away.
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they did shoot an uziadis.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Towards the ending, that's right. I forgot about that.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: You know they can't shoot.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's for sure. And then you made two remakes
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: pretty much following each other. And in the intervening you years,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: I did a deep dive on you man, and I
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: don't know anybody really in the in show business that
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: has crossed over like you have. I mean from what's
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: seventeen years old, you joined the band the group NWA,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: and by age twenty something you're making solo albums. Twenty
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: five you're making your first film. You've gone on to
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: write between fifteen and twenty films, depending on how they're credited.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: You've acted in nearly forty of them. You've directed a movie,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: and you've produced forty films. Did I get that even
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: close to accurate?
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah? I think that's pretty close.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Man. You seem lazy to me, You're right, Yeah, What
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: does drive you these days? I would say so not
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: to mention you also about to take a professional sports
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: league public Is that correct?
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: Correct?
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, Cube, you got so much going on.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: What a resume you have, and so what motivated you
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: to go back to the wheel here and re resurrect
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: this franchise twenty five years later?
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: The fans love it, you know, the fans, and being
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: in this business, you do it for the fans. You know,
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: at the end of the day, a lot of artists
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: get caught up in all the projects they want to do.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: You know, this is why I do sequels, because if
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: fans want it, you got to give them what they want.
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: Like you can't just always try to shove new projects
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: down their throat when they want them, you know, more
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: of absolutely, more of the characters that they've grown to love.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and can you reveal which characters from the one, two,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: and three might be showing up in four?
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: As many as we can get instill have cohesive story.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and you're writing progress process. I'm curious. You know,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: you're not a twenty year old anymore, and maybe you
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: don't have that edge or that hunger. Same thing happens
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: to musicians and everything. But do you find that you
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: still have the edge, you're still putting out original is
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: how's your writing process?
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: I do when it's a when it's a subject matter
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: that I really understand and that I believe should be
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: a fume, then you know, all the inspiration and energy, Yeah,
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: you know, kind of it gets into my adrenaline and
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: I get it going good man. But you know with
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: this the movie, I didn't think I was gonna write
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: this one, and when I looked up, I ended up
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: writing the movie.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: Right man? How long is something like that take you?
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: It? It's a process, you know, it's a process of
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: you want to get all your thoughts in order, so
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: you want to have a very dense outline of what
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: the movie, how the movie flows, and what goes on.
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: And if you get a very good outline, you could
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: turn the script around as fast as you can write.
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: So you could turn the script around in ten days
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: if you had the right outline.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: Wow, man, I wish I could. That's never been the case.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: But also, I imagine when you've got your outline, you're
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: probably in that observational mode when you're around your friend's
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: family wherever you are, and you're seeing things that you
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: pick up that you can incorporate in the story. Because
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: you said, this original story came from real life stories.
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you have to be very observant, understand people of
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: different generations and yeah, you know, and we're all you know,
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: this is a post COVID Friday. It's you know, we
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: have to be up to date. What's going on with
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: the family.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Right? Do you have a director attached?
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: Not yet, but I'm talking to a few who I
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: believe are the right ones.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: And that's not your thing. You did it once, you're
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: not interested in doing it again.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: I am. You know, under the right circumstances, those wasn't
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: those wasn't the right circumstances for a new director. The
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: subject matter was pretty harsh. That's where we were scared
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: to get an NC seventeen on Players Club. And so
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: you know, the one of the producers, you know, was
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: not as good as I need and you know, it
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: was a rough It was a rough shoot for me.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: You're talking about the first one.
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: I mean no, I'm talking about Players.
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: Club, Players called You're one director outing yep. Yeah, a
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: lot of pressure, man, and you got you got to
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: wear a lot of hats.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: Took a year and a half because I wrote it too,
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: So it took a year and a half of my life. Yeah, complete,
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: and I couldn't do anything else. So it took me
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: out of a lot of other projects.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: And you're responsible to so many people that you got
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: to take care of.
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So producing is to me the best spot to creatively,
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: you know, lead the project as a producer.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And I have one more question for you, and
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: I thank you for your generosity here and we'll get
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: back to the event. Every day is Friday. But I'm
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: also I want to point out how great you're music
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: soundtracks are on those records. It's not just hit on
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: those movies. It's not just hip hop. I mean it's
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: old school R and B, soul and funk. I mean
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: you got the players, Bootsy Collins, Roger Troutman. I mean, uh,
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: and I imagine I'm just guessing. Back in those days,
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: it wasn't as expensive to secure that music. And that's
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: got to be a significant it costs to you this
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: time around, because that's a big chunk of a movie budget. Right.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, we did the first soundtrack on priority,
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: and it was an expensive record to make, but it
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: was songs that I felt fit the air, songs we
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: grew up on, songs that we played in the neighborhood,
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: so you know, it was important. And some of them,
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: you know, like you know, I Want to Get next
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: to You that was already a soundtrack for another movie
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: called car Wash, So oh yeah, it was like it's
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: like a double soundtrack song man, And yeah, you know
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: it was. It was a pretty pretty big penny, but
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: it was worth it because music, you know, if you
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: look at a Scorsese movie or or you know movies
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: with impactful music, you know, Quentin Tarantino, you know these movies,
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: the music helps, uh drive the story home.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: No question, informs the scene, right I'm guessing in some
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: of your rehearsals or even shooting, you probably had the
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: music going in the background to set the atmosphere for
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: the actors.
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, especially with you know, with Mary Jane. You know
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: we kind of on the Porsch just kicking it and
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: you know, wanted it to flow. And it's such a
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: it's such a you know, weed song.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: Yes, indeed we had so it.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: Kind of it deserves a movie spot. It's so good.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, Cube, this is huge news for all lovers
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: of Friday, which you know was scored big at the
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: box office, but then went even bigger post box office, streaming,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: cable TV. I mean, it's a cult hit. Kind of
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: reminds me of like Big Lebowski. You know, it just
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: lives on and so many great lines that people still
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: recite today. And when I told him you were coming
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: on the radio, people just started reciting lines from the
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: movie all these years later. That's got to tickle you.
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: They're reading your words or saying your words.
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a comedy, you know, That's what's cool, is uh.
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: You know, I hear comedians say that they love it
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: and it's funny to them. And when when you can
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: make your favorite comedians last. Yeah, you're not really mean, so.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, right on. So so get back to it. I
• 19:00
