Life as a hustle, whether on stage or off. Even before we ever see Mike Lane take the stage at Xquisite, we’ve already watched him hype his dream of a custom furniture business, spied his van with the mobile detailing decal on the side, and witnessed him talk his boss into a pay bump at the construction site. Once the stripping begins, there’s as many or more shots of wads of dirty cash than naked man-flesh. Then drugs get tossed in the mix. Everything’s a transaction.

“That’s the state of the country, man. America, people, stupid.”
