Tone Capone, The Black Corleone, Calls 3:02pm. 5/19/05. Phone number on my caller ID reads AIM Healthcare. But the voice is all Tone Capone, the "most underrated nigger in the industry." He certainly has an impressive body of work:
You can jive all your want, white boy, but this nigger has thrown it down. Tone: "I want to tell you what happened. I'm hearing word that Mr. Johnson said he paid for the movie. He did the movie. He shot it. That's a bunch of bulls---. My boy Phashion shot that s---. Phasion is the one who put it together. Mr. Johnson just happened to be a part of that s---. You feelin' me?" Duke: "Yeah." Tone: "I'm quite sure that no documentary part of the DVD is going to get the award. I'm quite sure that it's the f---ing in that movie that got that award. So s---, so we at the bar [in Las Vegas in January], me, C--tree, and Phasion, me and C--tree and Duane Cummingz are in the movie. I have a scene up in there, you know what I'm saying?" Duke: "Yeah." Tone: "Tone Capone the Black Corleone. You know what I'm saying? We're at the bar, you know what I'm saying? Me, C--tree and I didn't see Mr. Johnson, but he happened to ease by us with that award he supposedly snatched from Gabor. He walked past us. He didn't even acknowledge us. None of that s---. You know what I'm saying? C--tree, like, 'Johnson, you don't see us?' "He turned around, oh man. You know what I'm saying? What's up man? Thanks for this award. Thank G-d, man. Thank G-d, man. "We're like, cool, man. Why don't you buy a nigger a drink or something? Let's celebrate. You know what I'm saying?" Duke: "Yeah." Tone: "[Mr. Johnson says] 'No, man. I gotta go, man. I gotta get out of here, man.' You know what I'm saying? "He's prancing the parade and he got away from us. You know what I'm saying? "And that s--- had me hot." Duke: "Right." Tone: "You know what I'm saying? Because motherf---ers didn't get no recognition for that s---, acknowledgment, or none of that s---. He just snuck off with the fake award. You know what I'm saying? That fake-ass award. You know what I'm saying? But it's all good though. F--- Johnson." Duke: "So Phasion was the real director?" Tone: "Yep." Duke: "How long you been in the biz, Tone?" Tone: "I've been in the biz for like two years, man. You know what I'm saying? The most underrated nigger in the industry. You put that on that website. You know what I'm saying? The most underrated nigger in the industry. You know what I'm saying? But it's all good, though." Duke: "How many scenes have you done?" Tone: "S---, I've done over 40-scenes. You know what I'm saying? You can go to iafd.com and check me." Duke: "Who's treated you best and who's treated you worst in the industry?" Tone: "I'm just going to say it like this, man. This is a shady game. You know what I'm saying? But my boy, Mike Metropolis, looks out for me. You know what I'm saying? He stays in there with me when I was f---ing up. But now I'm back and you know what I'm saying? I'm 100% strong in this s---. "I got a scene in Pimpfomation XXX with Sunshine. An anal scene." Duke: "What was Mr. Johnson doing in Pimpfomation XXX?" Tone: "Man, I don't know what the f--- he was doing because I never even met the motherf---er until in Las Vegas. You know what I'm saying? "When I did the scene, I didn't know what the f--- kind of movie it was going to be or none of that s---. You know what I'm saying? That's how I know my dog Phasion put that s--- together. "When the scene came out, I was like, I don't know about this. I don't know about that. Where did all this s--- came in at? Phasion was like, yeah, we just put that s--- together. I'm like, cool, cool." Duke: "How did Mr. Johnson treat you guys when you called him out at the bar?" Tone: "Mr. Johnson, he was acting real shady, man. You know what I'm saying? He wasn't even walking towards us. He was like walking backwards. He was like, oh man, I've got to take care of this. Me and my bitch. "Man, can we celebrate? Because we all had something to do with this s---. His bitch ain't done no f------ in that motherf---ing movie. You know what I'm saying? So why the f--- did he get the award? He ain't put no money in that s---. Nothing. "I'm over here [at AIM] and smoking weed as high as a motherf-----. "Motherf---ers know where I'm at. So if they want to book me for some work, man. They know how the f--- to reach me. You know what I'm saying? Tell the motherf------ out there that their s--- ain't s---. From Tone Capone the Black Corleone. F--- Mr. Johnson. I'm out." 7/5/05 I call him Tuesday afternoon at his apartment (he's hanging with Tiptoe and Gorgeous Dre) in downtown LA. Duke: "What are you doing?" Tone: "I'm just at the house playing Madden [football on Playstation 2], you know what I'm saying, and chillin' with a couple of females and playing Madden for money. It ain't no fun if you ain't got no money down there. Me and my nigger Dre." Duke: "Is your girlfriend (Tasty) still mad at you?" Tone: "She's mad all the time. Her ass is always mad. "You ought to bring your tape recorder down here. Bring your camera and bring an extra body with you. You might need some protection." Duke: "What would happen?" Tone: "They'd probably rob your ass." Duke: "What do you do on a typical day?" Tone: "I brush my teeth and wash my face at 6:30 in the morning and smoke a fat-ass blunt." Tone says he does whatever work that pays. "Whatever it takes. If that means robbing you, I'm going to get it. "My last job fired me for coming to work late. "Do you figga deal me?" Duke: "What does that mean?" Tone: "That means, do you feel me? But over here we say, do you figga deal me. Slang. So get on it." Duke: "I need some drama." Tone: "No drama going on over here, dog. I've been staying low, dog. My birthday's coming up July 11. I'm trying to see that mother-----. I'll be 25." Duke: "Are people getting shot around you?" Tone: "Yeah, man, mother------ are getting shot up. I don't know if you've been watching the news about the Black and Mexican war. I think that s--- is going to start taking off, you know what I'm saying? "Mexicans around here are saying 'F--- niggers' and throwing bottles and s---. I'm surrounded by nothing but Mexicans around this motherf-----. This is there 'hood but where I stay at there's nothing but niggers up in here. They [Mexicans] know that we're in here with something." Duke: "Do you guys have weapons?" Tone: "Come on, man, what you think, dog?" Gorgeous Dre: "When we go down the street, they make slain Jay noises (imitating the cocking of a shotgun)." Tone: "Me and my nigger Dre be jogging and they be hanging out and they're going cha cha." Dre: "They could blow my head off." Dre and Tone start coughing. "Do you hear this s---?" asks Tone. Duke: "Are you guys smoking?" Tone: "Yeah. How was the response to my interview?" Duke: "People liked it." Tone: "There are a lot of haters out there, you know what I'm saying? I don't give a f--- about nothing. "You ought to come sit with us and we'll get your ass high as f---. Get your ass drunk as hell, you know what I'm saying?" 7/21/05 He calls me late Thursday night from his apartment in downtown Los Angeles. "I was telling you about how I make my money on the side. By all means necessary, whether I sell crack, weed, or put a bitch on a track. "You know what a track is? A track is like a major street. You feel me? "If a nigger ain't got no job, a motherf----- is going to do what he has to do. If I hear the scoop on the street that Luke has a million dollars in his house and I ain't got no money, I'm going to try to get that. That's why a lot of motherf------ are coming up dead and s---." Luke: "Is Tasty around?" Tone: "No. She's at work. She works overnight doing phone sex."
