Chichi Get The Llello Meaning – Beyonce, Azealia Banks

Azealia Banks posted a picture of Beyonce.  The picture features “CHICHI GET THE LLELLO”, a famous quote from Scarface.  Llello is a common misspelling of “yayo”, a street name for cocaine.  Tony Montana (Al Pacino) says “Chichi get the yayo” in one of the movie’s most iconic and controversial scenes.

Tony meets Hector to carry out a drug deal and Hector pulls out a chainsaw and uses it to kill Angel.  Hector is about to butcher Montana with the chainsaw but Manny and Chichi storm in with machine guns, saving Tony’s life.  Manny gets shot but luckily the bullet goes through his shoulder.  After Tony and Chi Chi tend to Manny, Tony chases after Hector.  Tony understands the importance of securing the bag so before he chases after Hector delivers the infamous line, “Chichi get the yayo.”

Tony murders Hector by shooting him in the head and stomach.  The following video shows the gruesome scene:

The unforgettable scene established a new benchmark for on-screen bloodshed in mainstream Hollywood films.  Drug dealer violence is exposed.  There is a substantial amount of blood and you can hear the chainsaw as it goes through Angel’s flesh.  You can hear Angel screaming and there’s blood all over the bathroom.
The scene also reminds us that Al Pacino is a genius.  The actor went off script and used the slang term “yayo.” The movie’s director, Brian De Palma loved the term and let Pacino use it throughout the film.
