Jimmy Smith Jr. quotes from 8 Mile (2002)

Jimmy Smith Jr.

Who told you I was a "dope rapper?"

Jimmy Smith Jr.

Ward, I think you were a little hard on the Beaver. So was Eddie Haskell, Wally and Ms. Cleaver.

Jimmy Smith Jr.

You ain't the future of shit, bitch. You're just David ****in' Porter.

Jimmy Smith Jr.

If something needs to happen with this shit, it needs to happen now.

Jimmy Smith Jr.

So what, at least I got a ****in' job.

Jimmy Smith Jr.

Mom, you gotta stop living your life like this.

Jimmy Smith Jr.

That "Leave It To Beaver" line almost killed me.

Jimmy Smith Jr.

You're a maggot. You can't hack it. Paul's a gay. You're a ****.

Jimmy Smith Jr.

Man, that's all we ever do man is talk shit. (imitating Sol) We need to get fine bitches and phat rides. (imitating Iz) No what we need to do is put our money in savings bonds. (imitating Future) No what we need to do is get our songs on JLB. Man shut the **** up! None of us never do shit about nothing. We're still broke as **** and live at home with our moms!

Jimmy Smith Jr.

My Motto: **** Lotto. I will get the seven digits from your mother for a dollar tomorrow.

Jimmy Smith Jr.

This guy ain't no mother**** MC.
I know everything he is about to say against me.
I am white. I am a **** bum.
I do live in a trailer with my mom.
My boy Future is an Uncle Tom.
I do have a dumb friend named Cheddar Bob
who shoots his self in his leg with his own gun.
I did get jumped by all six of you chumps.
And Wink did **** my girl.
I'm still standing here
screaming "**** the free world!"
Don't ever try to judge me dude.
You don't know what the **** I've been through,
but I know something about you!
You went to Cranbrook. That's a private school!
Whats the matter, dawg? You embarrassed?
This guy is a gangster? His real name's Clarence.

Jimmy Smith Jr.

**** the beat,I'll go acapella

Jimmy Smith Jr.

I'm a piece of **** white trash,I say it proudly

Jimmy Smith Jr.

**** this battle. I don't wanna win, I'm outtie

Jimmy Smith Jr.

Here tell these people something they don't know about me. (tosses microphone)

Alex

It's almost beautiful.

Jimmy Smith Jr

When I was younger, I always wanted to live in a house like this, when it was used to be.

DJ Iz

That's why brothers need to sign themselves a deal. I'm telling you record labels supply **** with the kind of benefits they need.

Sol

Dawg. We sign us a deal you can take the mother**** benefits, we're talking Bentley's and Benjamins not Blue Cross and Blue Shield.

Future

Look to tell you all **** the truth, I don't give a **** about none of that. I just wanna hit 31 and a 3rd on the box you know what I'm saying? One of them strong songs on JLB.

DJ Iz

No what we need to do is save that shit up and put it into some savings bonds every week, stack it and build our own studio.

Future

Savings Bonds?

Sol

Let me ask you a question Dawg. How the **** are we brothers? We need fine bitches and fat rides, not no goddamn savings bonds.

Jimmy Smith Jr

Man that's all we ever do is talk shit!

Jimmy Smith Jr

"We need to get fine bitches and fat rides",

Jimmy Smith Jr

"No, what weed to do is put our money in savings bonds",

Jimmy Smith Jr

"No, what we need to do is put our songs on JLB." Man shut the **** up. All of us never do shit about nuttin' and we're still broke as **** and living at home with our moms.

Jimmy Smith Jr

Don't even start, Mom, it's been a long ****in' day.

Stephanie

Yeah, tell me about it. Me and Greg are having problems.

Jimmy Smith Jr

He find out about the eviction?

Stephanie

No...

Jimmy Smith Jr

The settlement check ain't coming?

Stephanie

No, it's coming, it's coming, it's our...it's our sex life.

Jimmy Smith Jr

Mom, I don't want to hear this shit!

Stephanie

I mean, it's good, it's real good, but he just doesn't--

Jimmy Smith Jr

Mom, I don't want to hear this!

Stephanie

--Greg won't go down on me.

Jimmy Smith Jr

Mom!
