To prepare for his role, Terrence Howard interviewed 123 pimps and 78 prostitutes over two-and-a-half years. He lived with four different pimps, including a month-long stint in a Memphis brothel.
Al Kapone became involved in the film because of a case of mistaken identity. Director Craig Brewer was expecting a phone call from D.J. Paul because he wanted to hire him to write the songs Djay would perform. Kapone, who knew Brewer from the Memphis music scene, called him at the very same time. He told Brewer that the movie needed to have his music in it and Brewer immediately agreed. After a few minutes of small talk, Brewer realized he was talking to the wrong person. Too embarrassed to back out of the deal, Brewer told Kapone that he could audition with one song. Kapone had 24 hours to write a song for Djay. He was sent the script by courier and was given Terrence Howard's phone number to discuss the character. The next day, Kapone performed "Hustle & Flow (It Ain't Over)" for Brewer and producer John Singleton. They loved the song so much, they used three more of Kapone's songs for the soundtrack.
While filming in Memphis, Anthony Anderson and assistant director Wayne Witherspoon were arrested and charged with sexual assault on a woman who Witherspoon allegedly lured to a production trailer. Charges against both were later thrown out by the presiding judge.
The film is dedicated to Sam Phillips, who discovered Elvis Presley and founded Sun Records. Phillips' do-it-yourself aesthetic inspired Craig Brewer to write the film.
Members of Three 6 Mafia, which won an Oscar for "It's Hard Out Here for A Pimp," appear in the film.
"Key: There are two types of people: those that talk the talk and those that walk the walk. People who walk the walk sometimes talk the talk but most times they don't talk at all, 'cause they walkin'. Now, people who talk the talk, when it comes time for them to walk the walk, you know what they do? They talk people like me into walkin' for them."
"Key: Just because you got the bacon, lettuce, and tomato don't mean I'm gonna give you my toast."
