- You wanna know
how a 29 year old
black girl from nothing
came to run a multimillion
dollar record company?
Well, listen close.
This part comes at you fast.
[gun shot]
[exhales sharply]
That's me, Nicole
Mitchell Wright.
Or inmate number 237-9836
At the very moment,
things went too far,
way too far.

I was born in Washington DC.
And no, not the new DC,
the old one,
where Martin Lawrence,
Dave Chappelle and
Taraji P. Henson
were all born,
and where every day,
was a hustle to survive.
Yep, I'm the one on the right.
And right next to me,
is my best friend
in the entire universe, Meghan.
We didn't have much
except for music.
You know music was our savior.
♪ They wanna be
players of the world ♪
♪ Tryna pull me down
My parents, God
where do I start?
That's my dad,
Mitchell Wright.
He was a hard working black man
who worked for the city.
He made decent money,
but here's the
truth about money.
Whether you're rich or poor,
is determined by the
eye of the beholder.
In my eyes, my
father was a prince.
In my mother's eyes,
he was a pauper.
[music screeches]
- What do you mean?
You only have four months
for the rent saved up.
We need to be in the
process of tryna buy a house
before summer.
- Relax, we're comfortable.
- Comfortable?
Who says that?
We live in the hood and you
talking about some relax?
I ain't built for this shit.
I can't do this.
[footsteps clank]
- Daddy?
- Hmm.
- What's a budget?
- Well, a budget is,
the amount of money
someone has to do things
they need or want to do.
- Do we have the things
we want or need to do?
- We have our needs.
Still working on our wants.
- I don't wanna have a budget.
- Listen,
I want you to
remember two things.
One, the size of
what's in your heart
will always be more important
than the size of what's in
your wallet or your house.
And two, cheaters never win.
[soft music]
[cutlery clanks]
[door opens]
- Everything blew up as hell,
my mother would move out.
- Come on, hurry up!
- And drag me with her.
[suitcase rolls]
- This happened
about twice a year,
right on cue.
And as she would say, to
get on with her real life.
[somber music]
But for some reason or another,
we would always end up
going back with my dad.
Till one day she
finally never came back.
That ruined him.
Because he really loved her.
Love.
That's a scary word for a girl.
[upbeat music]
So right then and there, I
decided when I got married,
it wasn't gonna be like
my parents marriage.
Mine was gonna be better.
[upbeat music]
By the time I'd
gotten out of college,
ambition was my middle name,
largely due to my
boyfriend Germaine.
He was for sure the most driven
and talented guy in
the neighborhood.
And we had a lot
of similar talents.
- Hey so what,
y'all feeling this?
- Yeah well, I like it
without the snares though.
- For real?
- Yeah, especially
when you add the vocals
they're gonna compete
with each other.
You wanna sell it, right?
- Of course.
[upbeat music]
[laughs]
- Okay, okay, props,
props Meghan, props.
Shit, all right.
You ready?
- Yeah.
The thing we had most
in common was music.
I could sing it
and he could create it.
- [Germaine] Babe?
It was a good marriage.
♪ Call it love but
you so pressure ♪
♪ Might just walk for ya
if it's all pleasure ♪
Yeah, I got sold on every
girl's Cinderella dream.
[orchestral music]
[crowd applauds]
We made some great money
off those early songs.
We literally made
sense together.
Until one day we didn't anymore.
- Mummy's baby
have enough to eat?
Yes?
Yes you little pumpkin, yes.
[laughs]
- Nicky!
Hey Jonathan?
Babe you will never
guess what happened.
I am looking at an
opportunity to work with, Yay.
Yes, that Yay.
Look, so he heard a
couple of my songs
that I made with
G from last year
and now she wants to meet.
Okay, what's up?
Earth to Nicky.
- Who's Gina?
And don't lie.
[Jonathan giggles]
- Nicky--
- Baby please!
- Nicole you know that I
love you, and only you.
- You know what?
It's not even about love.
You haven't had a
hit in two months,
which means you aren't carrying
your weight around here.
And you got the
nerve to cheat on me?
- She was just a friend--
- Shut up!
Spare me.
You must think I'm a fool.
You know what I find crazy,
is that we're behind two
months on the mortgage,
two months.
And you got all the time
in the world to cheat!
- Look I said, she was
just a friend, okay?
And I'm gonna pay the
mortgage like I always do.
Honestly man, things
have not been the same
between us for a while.
- Yeah because you're out
playing house with your friends.
You can be out making us money.
- Look I am doing
everything I can--
- You're broke.
- Everything, to take
care of this family.
And I'm doing it by myself.
It's not my fault
you're a half ass singer
that couldn't make
it in this industry.
[soft music]
- I'm sorry that things
have not worked out for you,
the way they've worked
out for me, okay?
