4. SOUNDBITE: (English) T.I./Actor:
"I think especially for comedy Atlanta has not seen a film anything like this me and Mike (Epps) on screen together are lightning in a bottle. (laughs) And the story is just crazy enough to work."

6. SOUNDBITE (English) Queen Latifah/Actor-Producer:
"I don't think women ever have enough power, can we ever have enough power? I think we are a long ways away from having enough power. Because I think if we did have the proper amount of power you would see a lot more balance in your advertisements, your marketing, films, television, things you see online would definitely be more balanced. And that's what I think pretty much all we really want for it to be more equal so I'm always happy to be part of what makes that happen."

8. SOUNDBITE (English) Queen Latifah/Actor-Producer:
"My on camera part of this film is very minute, I'm just popping in for a cameo, but my behind the scenes influence and activity is much greater. We are the producers and you know, we kind of all came together to make this all happen with Mike and T.I. so I'm at least one third of what makes this thing role.

10. SOUNDBITE (English) Queen Latifah/Actor-Producer:
"It's always been important for me to be involved behind the scenes as well as in front of the scenes because that's how I started my career. I started out as a rapper but shortly thereafter became a manager, you know we opened up a management company my partner Shakim Compere and I was 18 and he was 20. So it was always important for me to make my own decisions. To be my own boss, not to have to follow or take direction from someone. I always listen to great ideas and I couldn't have made it without my male counterpart Shakim.

(Reporter: How do you juggle watching the baby and working at same time:
T.I.: "Very meticulously, she pretty much calls the shots of how it's going to be done."
