Yes
I don't know what you're trying to get at. They're mostly all exploiting something in some way. Hell Earn is trying to exploit Paper Boi, he found out dude was a rapper and ran to latch on to the situation.

I feel you. IMO most of the characters are exploitative minus like Darius and Earns BM.
These people aren't perfect. They're very real life without being over the top, there's flaws in all of them. That's what makes me enjoy the show.

If he made, released, and performed music for free then he wouldn't be exploiting anyone. That would be using art almost solely as a means of expression. But like Blake and Sleazy said, that's unrealistic because ___s are struggling and looking for an out so, just like in real life; it boils down to what types and in what circumstances you consider exploitation to be an issue.
Had to double back and thank you. Got the season in HD for like $11.49
(had around $8 in Play Credit already too, so $3.49 really.)

When I first moved to Atlanta, my first date with mt daughter's mother was like this. I actually only took $60 out the stash thinking I would have enough. Left the card at home with all the money on it.
Plan was to go to Bangkok (food there is outstanding, she loves that place now), had the coupon: buy one meal, get one free. Then hit the movies. Had enough in my mind.
Lawrd behold, she had a taste for the cheesecake factory. Rewind back, I'm coming from New Orleans. At the time, there was not a Cheesecake Factory nor I knew what it was. My idea of a date back at home was a blunt, Popeyes and going to the lakefront
So we get to the cheesecake factory, I'm looking at these prices and was like wtf. There goes the movies. She comes out the gate ordering a drink. I'm over here drinking water.
She goes on ordering her entree, full rack rib plate. Not the half rack, a full rack. I ordered a salad. She gonna say, "you not hungry?"
Long story short, she goes ordering desert and by then I realized I'm ******. I tell her, I'm going to the restroom. I went to call my homey who lived 3 blocks from the spot. He answered but he was talking about he's on a date too and won't be about another 20 - 30mins before getting to me. I called one more person, and he was like I'm on my way. But, he put me on game. "Be a man and go out there and admit to not having enough and you'll work it out." After that Coach K prep talk, I told him don't worry about coming.
So I go back out there, told her the situation and asked if she can help me out until I get home to pay her back. She claimed she didn't have any more. (Lying ***). Asked the manager to come over, explained the situation, I was $20 short plus no tips. I explained I'll be back first thing in the morning and I wi take care of the tip too. Gave him my cousin business card, who was a CEO of an IT company. Wrote my info and told him he can reach me, if I don't comply.
Now she talking about, she full and had the itis. I'm like yeah, after grand standing on my tab. Dropped her *** off home.
Next day, she called me and said she enjoy her time and loved the way I handle the situation. So I flex big time
I sent her to pay the remainder of the tab, left a $20 tip for the waiter. And brought us lunch to go
Talk about pride
Years later after we got toegther, I found out that she had $200 in her purse the whole time. She just wanted to see what I would do.
After that, never would I allow a woman to do that. Young and naive to the big city. So used to being in the hood, just wasn't prepared.
First dates is always at a coffee house.

Nah that's his fault. He knew he was broke before he asked her out on the date. Don't take nobody out when you know your ends ain't there. Should have found his own restaurant instead of asking his boy. Google is free.

She not faultless tho. They both are fully aware of his financial status. He should not have sat there and spent money he didn't have and she should not have expected him to be able to pay full price for seafood. Hell if a chick told you she couldn't afford her half of the rent but wanted to take me to a fancy restaurant and eat fresh seafood at market price you better tell her to run you that rent money
