As Q leaves the rooftop of the building, a crowd from the party has gathered to observe what happened. One of the people in the crowd turns to Q and says, "Yo, you got the juice now man." Q turns and looks at him, shakes his head and walks away.
Quote from the "Juice" movie with Tupac Shakur. What would it mean in plain English?
Thank you, Alain

respect
Have read through your wiki-link and can only think this is an alternative to saying "respect, man" - buzz word that's been around for quite some time, sometimes said with a gesture of putting your fist out (then the other person touches your fist with theirs)
Maybe it's meant ironically?

You got the power and respect
Juice = liquid fuel, electricity, vitality, alcohol as in slang use of English,
but according to movie headline and the topic; there were 4 friends at the end only one man left alive, and leader died. So last man got the power and respect as they were somehow gang members..
