I (my hood) definitely knew who Tupac was, at that time. He wasn't major YET, but he was known.

[@seattlestunna]

I don't know what he was talking about because juice I don't know anybody that has not seen that LOL

[@LeopoldNumberz]

you're right he was a hood legend right after Juice, but 2pac said in an interview that he invited them all to his show and no one was there; then the next month his show was packed with fans.

[@2pacisgay955]

Pac wasn't finish wiping his make up off nor fully took his ballet corset off before he got on poetic justice

[@ray1411]

He’s a great actor. Sprung was great.

[@boogiedown-wx1ns]

Yes very underrated movie.

[@thejokersonyou]

Poetic Justice released in July 1993... at that time... he already had Juice... he already had first album w "Brenda's Got a Baby" and "If My Homies Call"... Strictly 4 My Niggaz came out months before Poetic Justice and the single "I Get Around" had dropped about a month before the movie... Soooooooooomebody's memory is getting fuzzy w age....

[@deelee5244]

thejokersonyou thank you because stupid ass ppl will say anything to discredit Pac

[@deelee5244]

Tupac was with digital underground in 1990 since ppl want to discredit him. Juice was 92 thanks for trying it

[@jleron22]

My favorite & funniest Joe Torry movie was sprung, the scene after she stole the yellow porche and had him on top "That was the opiest, dopiest, Poo nani I ever had"

[@md3dasnipa386]

I think he's just trying to normalize Pac.. I don't think he's hating, he just looked at Pac as a lil homie. Salute Joe, I've been watching him since a kid!!

[@benisrael5169]

Joe beat up Vanessa Fraction like he was the police. Then he told Unsung it was because his demons got to him, smh. He deserves no salute. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmGad4N3iNWie6M

Joe looks good and yes Pac is the greatest.

Nice Interview. Keep doin' it Joe Torry.

[@hillbot5942]

Thank you guys I enjoyed his visit

[@tangiev1667]

In What world were you living in Joe? The Black community definitely knew who Pac was when Poetic Justice came out. Nobody knew who you was and I could remember everyone was excited to see Janet and Pac in the movie

[@jonDoe-ml3jq]

Maan haven't seen him in a loong time this dude is like the sidekick of black comedy movies.... I wish he made it big

[@chacha41ful]

Everybody knew Tupac when he did Poetic Justice. We didn’t know Joe Torry

[@metcalfhottie6305]

RIGHT!!

[@denisewhitfield8976]

I knew who Joe Torry was.

[@mnoell35]

Charlene Henderson he’s got a point kinda. Pac didn’t "really blow" until his Deathrow day’s. Although,he was definitely known,but of course,not on Janet’s level.

[@fuccwhiteyandblackykhuunworld]

niggas been lyin, i knew him when he was on above the rim. huge basket fan at that time. and even more when he died and every year after that doc about him came out for like a decade?!?! only saw poetic justice years after he died. not much janet fan i guess. he wasn't lyin.

[@terih9411]

[@moon.star2]

Joe Torry definitely doesn't look 54 wow amazing genes

[@hateisasignofenvy651]

Who remember the movie "Sprung"?

[@mauricewright3206]

Need to do a whole video on sprung. These young chicks think because they act a cool after the D it's because she expects a "relationship"🤔 Bitch you SPRUNG not crazy The 90s was the shit

[@La__Rat]

Joe is funny as fook. He is funny in Def Commedy Jam.

[@stonetv757]

[@decem2berreign459]

I know its been awhile since I've seen Poetic Justice, but love scene with his "Thug Life" tattoo showing, I don't remember him showing skin other than his arms when he had on that tank top

[@CedRockStarr]

We knew who Tupac was. He wasn’t a megastar and neither was Nipsey Hussle. Still, they are/were known

[@sundiatamali8220]

Tupac sold over 100 million records in total, 2 diamond albums & sold over 10 million album sales before he was even murdered & several iconic movies. He is more than a Megastar, he is an icon.

[@CedRockStarr]

Saye saye not in 1990 when they shot the film dude

[@sundiatamali8220]

@@CedRockStarr He wasn't an icon in 1991 but he was famous, he was on Arsenio Hall twice & had been in Juice.

[@shawnjohn7783]

By 1993 that man had platinum singles and already scored a hit movie with Juice, ppl definitely knew who 2Pac was

Joe, people knew who 2pac was. Getting arrested put him in the news. I Get Around, Juice, Joe way off on this one. We didn't know Joe unless you saw him on Def Comedy Jam. Joe trying to add more sauce for himself

[@rpullins]

Pedro Justice remember pac didn’t audition for that role he was helping a friend in the lobby with his lines

[@AceHardy]

🙏

[@jgood4010]

Yeah Pac wasn't a huge star in 1991 he was on the verge

[@shawnjohn7783]

I'm confused because he wasn't bald in 91 and Poetic Justice came out in 93

[@scarletbouvier520]

He would've already been a superstar in 1991 had he stayed in ballet school

[@massagemodality366]

I like this guy. He.s an ol G in the biz..but really..Why is Joe Torey bothered because no one will give him a part and wants y To avoid the audotoom cattle call..what about the other actors who would like to skip over auditions..he.s been in the business well over 30 years so if he is not being called directly and still has to audition after all this time.. Who.s fault is that.

[@ray1411]

What? What hood? Juice didn’t populate? Huh?

[@Mzisha89]

Rey S. Right. Don’t know what he was talkin about. Plus I wanted to see Poetic Justice because of PAC.

[@jgood4010]

I think it depend on where you from. I'm from Cali we didnt watch or talk about Juice like that. And I was in high school when it came out. I didnt see it until younger. Boys n the hood took off everywhere around the country. Pac did get traction after juice but he wasnt a big star like that yet it came later you cant personalize it gotta look at it overall

[@deelee5244]

Rey S. Pac was with digital underground before poetic justice

[@rpullins]

Remember PAC got that role by accident he went with a friend and did his role in the lobby

Yeah he tripping. Pac was already world wide known.
