Fat Joe,Q Tip,N.O.R.E.,and Mary J Blige the veterans in hip hop and r and b repping New York like it never went out of style.I net if they weren't famous this is exactly what would of happened to them 4 its sad but true.Living in the ghetto is a mofo you gotta do the best you can to get put the hood

Jolie told Elijah its ok your just not ready for that.Elijah never had his pee pee wet before 😂😂So according to this Jolie has been wrecked before doggy style and missionary style 😂😂😂Is that true?😂😂😂

Did you see Elijah punching the air 😂😂😂😂

⭐️⭐️⭐️🤍🤍🤍🤍

Song at 35 sec ❤ who knows who it is please

This song at the end is heartbreaking ... so many men live this story too 😢

DDDDAAAAAAMMMMMMNNNNNNN!!!That is so fucked up the gates closed on him Elijah knew he was fucked up.His homeboy dieing was technically Elijah's fault.Elijah's went back for his best homie that is a real friend right there.They had mad love for each other.Those kind of friendships are rare.I was rooting for the bad guy but came short and got buried in the cemetery 😢😢😢please God forgive Elijah and his friend and let them in the gates to go to heaven and become angels to watch over the ones in the hood.Please forgive them because they were lost and doomed from birth please let them rise like a Phoenix.Because on earth they were living in hell and the feelings and heart were broken the whole time on earth 😂😂 they are going to live in heaven because they have were living in hell there whole lives 🙏 pray Underrated movie a must watch ✌️ ✌️

Q Tip's character Elijah was fucked since childhood 😢😢 That is messed up because blacks and latino's are the most frowned upon races in this u.s. Everybody hates them and stereotypes them as criminals and those are facts.Sometimes if Q Tip didn't make it in hip hop this story would %100 would more likely happen to him.Very sad we got teach our black and latino children that they do have a chance at living a productive life.I just hope and pray 🙏 that when they become adults they are smart enough to make good decisions 🙏 🙏

That face cut Deep as hell like a slab of ribs

Dude told Q-Tip he looking at 15 to life boy was right the judge said the same thing the lawyer was wrong talking doing 2 yrs in jail nope

A very sad movie

This movie is awesome. I really like ending has all drawing, painting and so on. I watch this on B.E.T. movie when I was still in high school. Such a powerful film about the artist his story.

0:35

“Shit I’mma die in here anyways, I gotta get paid.” Shit terrible.

The moment Thomas told him he just got to do something with your time was heart warming I was the same way when I went to jail for a year & change I had to do something to keep myself busy or go mad.

Cut the shit outta that nigga 😮 @ 6:54

4:31 what's the song name ??????????¿??????????¿???????¿??????????????

This movie is beyond sad, but it happens far to often 🤦🏽‍♂️

4:31 You need some work? You need some work? Mr Art Guy Picture taking mf LOL!! Nore Mad Funny

Joey😂 From T.S.

This whole movie was fucked up him and his parents didn’t deserve what happened to them

This movie is a masterpiece

Main character seemed dumb in my opinion, was just a boy in a men’s world

BET was famous for playing this movie a lot around 2001 or 2002

6:52 Disarmed this man like he was special forces on some shit lol

After prison I understand I'll do anything

This movie was so good 🥺

What Rap song is this??

If Thomas haven’t stole Jason toilet paper 🧻 & cut him Thomas wouldn’t have gt killed.

Love me some Mary J. 👸💐❤🙏

Really powerful movie.

If Thomas didn’t have beef with dude I’m pretty sure they all could’ve escaped but of course revenge ruined everything!

Mary J so damn beautiful

That's lawyer No Good..he wants money

That's Bull**it man how the hell he get charged of second degree murder?

Favorite childhood movie

Love the movie and this short song. I wish he made it a single track.❤👍👍

This is wrong 15 to life. It was self-defense and he didn't mean to kill him. He should've been given some leniency. They did him wrong.

His last words was “let me out” they let him out alright 💥 💀
