As someone who has known the depths of the rapper’s talent, Clifford encourages him to join the tour by leaving her. She doesn’t want to come between her lover and the heights he deservedly can reach.
Clifford thinks that Murda shouldn’t waste his life by choosing to be with her. As far as she is concerned, they both have their ambitions and concerns to follow and she asks him to follow them rather than choosing to stick with the relationship. She fears that if he chooses to be with her, he will regret the same since choosing her means saying no to a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. However, Murda doesn’t think the same.

Why Do Big Bone and Big Bawse Abduct Diamond? Who Really Are They?
Big Bone and Big Bawse abduct Diamond in connection with Montavius’ death. After witnessing Keyshawn’s return to Diamond’s life, Big Bone sends a photo of him with Montavius’ ring to an anonymous someone. Big Bawse seemingly is the one who receives the image and he has arrived in Chucalissa to abduct Diamond to find out what really happened to Montavius. Big Bawse does possess a ring similar to Montavius’, which indicates that the ring is shared by members of Montavius’ gang. Big Bone can even be someone sent by Montavius’ gang to find out about the latter’s death.
Big Bone may have pretended to love Diamond to know more about Montavius’ death. The ring seems to have given her the evidence that Diamond is involved with Montavius’ death. Since Big Bone and Big Bawse do not kill Diamond right away, it’s clear that they want to know everything about the death of their fellow gang member. Since Diamond doesn’t have any motivation to kill Montavius, they may try to find who really killed him. Considering Diamond’s nature, he most likely will not reveal that Mercedes killed Montavius. Instead, he may direct them to Hailey, who disappears from their proximity.
