Title:Pimp and Ho
Source: SallySally's MSN Space - 7/3/2006



Finally, I got to watch "Hustle and Flow" a couple of days ago. Its seemly notorious song "It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp" won a Oscar and admittingly it was a jaw-dropping moment for me when I saw its nomination and winning on TV Wink (I put its lyrics below).

Not sure about you, but the movie really got me thinking:
Does what we do define what we are? Are we defined by what we say and how we talk or by our actions and power of example or role model? When you are judgmental, are you also digging into your own soul? When you shout out for violation of right/privacy and others' bold disrespect, are you showing respect, to others, and to yourself in the mean while? The list goes on and on, before I give myself a headache, maybe I'd better chill out and do myself a nice facial [at home Wink ]

I'm not a movie reviewer, but if you've ever watched it, you may want to check this out and get a good laugh Laughing Laughing

Below I quoted some out of it:

"It’s the most shameless piece of audience manipulation perpetrated on moviegoers since ..."

"it makes a hero out of a pimp..."

"In his own way, DJay is as hardworking as any entrepreneur. The hours suck. You have to keep the bitches in line and keep the cops and the johns from fucking up your shit. And these days, pimping doesn’t exactly make you rich or score you the tricked-out Caddy..."

"But like most of us, DJay also harbors secret ambitions... "

"He stops referring to the girls as his bitches and starts calling them his “primary investors.” "

"DJay’s pimping isn’t rationalized or defended; you either accept that it’s possible for a pimp to redeem himself through his art, or you don’t. He isn’t a cliché— he’s often an asshole, and when one of his ho’s proves too much of a distraction from the recording process, he puts both her and her baby out on the street. "

"The film doesn’t judge DJay, but neither does it excuse him... "

"...DJay is both humble and vain, noble and craven, brimming with confidence and crippled by self-doubt..."

"...that even the bitterest dregs of society are worthy of love and capable of redemption, and it understands the true cost and meaning of judge not. No one in this picture ends up where they started, and that makes the journey all the richer..."

"But man, does this movie work you over. The script is cut like a glittering diamond, every facet angled just so to dazzle you with DJay’s plight."

"Look, I’m as white of a white guy as it’s possible to get. To me, listening to 90 percent of rap is like getting Drano poured in my ear canals. But I’m a sucker for a good story, and Hustle and Flow has one to tell. It really is one of the best films of the year. If you avoid it because it’s too black for you, then you have bigger problems than I can help you with. "


附1-Lyrics: It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp
[Chorus 2X: Shug - singing] + (Djay)

You know it's hard out here for a pimp (you ain't knowin)
When he tryin to get this money for the rent (you ain't knowin)
For the Cadillacs and gas money spent (you ain't knowin)
[1] Because a whole lot of bitches talkin shit (you ain't knowin)
[2] Will have a whole lot of bitches talkin shit (you ain't knowin)

[Djay]

In my eyes I done seen some crazy thangs in the streets
Gotta couple hoes workin on the changes for me
But I gotta keep my game tight like Kobe on game night
Like takin from a ho don't know no better, I know that ain't right
Done seen people killed, done seen people deal
Done seen people live in poverty with no meals
It's fucked up where I live, but that's just how it is
It might be new to you, but it's been like this for years
It's blood sweat and tears when it come down to this shit
I'm tryin to get rich 'fore I leave up out this bitch
I'm tryin to have thangs but it's hard fo' a pimp
But I'm prayin and I'm hopin to God I don't slip, yeah

[Chorus]

[Djay]

Man it seems like I'm duckin dodgin bullets everyday
Niggaz hatin on me cause I got, hoes on the tray
But I gotta stay paid, gotta stay above water
Couldn't keep up with my hoes, that's when shit got harder
North Memphis where I'm from, I'm 7th Street bound
Where niggaz all the time end up lost and never found
Man these girls think we prove thangs, leave a big head
They come hopin every night, they don't end up bein dead
Wait I got a snow bunny, and a black girl too
You pay the right price and they'll both do you
That's the way the game goes, gotta keep it strictly pimpin
Gotta have my hustle tight, makin change off these women, yeah


附2: FILM SYNOPSIS (source https://www.oscar.com/nominees/bestsongnominee2.html)

DJay is a small-time pimp and drug dealer who dreams of stardom in the world of hip-hop music. Despite the criminal trappings of his day-to-day existence, DJay has an inner determination and a belief in his own talent that lead him to parlay a meeting with an old high school friend, now a sound engineer, into a chance for a better life.
