Omar Gooding's character doesn't get enough credit lol. The part where he was aggressive selling that 1 dress Jody gave him gets me every time lol. He is such a talented actor and highly underrated
Yea I think that Omar is a victim of all those family productions he did as a younger man. Unfortunately people focus on that sometimes and miss what a talented guy he really is.
"Jodie, you want some strawberry soda?"
The whole movie was wack... especially his character.
@@highschoolbullieskennel1461 I wouldn't say it was wack. It was very informative on what and what not to accept in one's life. Once I saw this, I never wanted a child out of wedlock.
@@highschoolbullieskennel1461 you Whack pussie
Baby I loved AJ, that cigarette, and her garden. Wasn’t nobody was stealing her joy!
Fr lol …. she played that role to a T
Damn she was my crush lmao
@@samhartman5676 she might have been my first ever Mom crush lol
@@boobajooba1017 Same. She had it going on lmao that nose ring an Newport cigg while doing her gardening mmm mmm mm
@@samhartman5676dem booty shorts too goddaaamnnnnnnnn
The older I get, the more I appreciate "Baby Boy" and everyone's performance!
Omar acting was heinous performance ? lmao give me break the white boy from malibu's most wanted coulda did a better job than omar non acting ass
The acting was top tier 🔥
After hearing all that story about their preparation now I see why the performance was soo good
Singleton got them well prepared
Bruh that scene still to this very day makes me laugh every time I see it but the funniest part in baby boy was when Melvin put Tyrese in the headlock & licked his head 😂😂😂
Lmao yeah call ya momma
😭😭😭☠️☠️☠️
Why did he lick his head?
@@sidneyshaw9205 To show domination… Basically making him his B!TCH…Equivalence to a dog pissing on your leg.
@@mr.swagzhighlights284 He had in in a head lock and said thats how he would have did him in the cell. Then he walks over and puts his mother in the same head lock. Thats how he is doing her now.
Ving Rhames would be a dope interview
I Agree, A Ving Rhames Interview Would Be 🔥🔥🔥
Indeed
"He a black all star"
Agreed 👊🏿👊🏿
Sure would
That old man strength is real 😂😭😂
hell yeah they grew up drinking Cod Liver Oil and eating beef and potatoes every other day lol
Lmaoo
He was only 41
Shid grown man strength is real 😂😂😂😂😂😂!! I got in a fight with one of my uncles when I was younger and thought I was gone win because we was around the same size…. Yeah that ain’t go as planned 🤣🤣🤣🤦🏽♂️
@@blackpoptart4781 well if I’m not mistaken ur usually a grown man at 41, so knuckling up with a 19/20yr old is a big difference.
What John Singleton did with directing Baby Boy was pure genius and pure art. Plus, the storytelling was topnotch. Everything was strategically placed. And the acting was excellently orchestrated
Ving Rhames should have been nominated for Big Baby, that moment when he takes the gun is so powerful.
Real talk that movie should've been nominated
Facts. Such a beautiful & powerful scene, you can tell he understood what happened and he helped his young ass out.
And not a single word was said. That made it even stronger.
@@user-xd6gr1yb6d FACTS!
The saying "Silence speaks volumes" was that scene in a nutshell.
I wish some of the those rehearsals were on the dvd. They would’ve been great bonus features.
DVDs still around
I own a copy already, but that particular rehearsal isn’t part of it.
Probably behind the scenes in the “Stay” video lol
After "Holiday Heart", I could never see Ving Rhames the same way as before. 🤣🤣🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
It was pulp fiction for me
💯 percent I kinda looked past pulp fiction but after that shit in holiday heart it was over for me he most definitely is a ponk
@@rottenapplelifestyle1683 That's the reason why I haven't watched that movie in years. 😫
@@rottenapplelifestyle1683 I still have never seen that movie.
It was definitely pulp fiction!!!!
I loved watching Omar Gooding on the screen. Great actor, and he is funny.
Yes I’ve always found him funny too first show I ever saw him on was Hanging with Mr Cooper.
That's why his movies were so intense, visual, and believable..
I love the method. Genius.
I laughed out loud when A.J. Johnson said, "John, you gonna yell 'cut'?" Right then, I had the image in my mind of Ving Rhames jumping around with her like a frog all over the living room. "John, you gonna yell 'cut'? "No, I'm gonna let that ride, A.J. Do your thing."
First though I had
😂😂😂😂 funniest part from the movie
He was goose hoping her
@@shineg9436 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 he sure was
That director was a goon hahaha
It’s crazy omar actually look like a gangsta in the movie
Omar Gooding is a fantastic Actor- he is very underrated as an Actor-
He's very nice and a fun person too. I was in a movie with him. He was ghetto af (in a good way tho)
@@GinaJonesStillettoQueen I bet he was. What movie did y'all play in if you don't mind me asking
My boy mo Tibbs 😂 I love that guy
He's overshadowed by Cuba
@@Sirluvalot88 Hay Mr postman.
Loved Ving Rhames in the movie "Rosewood".
@@youtubeillegallydeletesacc1525 yep,Booker T. was smarter than most humans.
He blew fine ass Scrappy's mind.
Yes. Holiday Heart is really good too.
She’s a real actress she explained the craft it takes
Umm you think? Baby Boy is a cult classic.
@Khenti Khan Those white People only said that because they are racist they been saying that since had slaves.
@Khenti Khan whites praise Ted bundy too
2:57 john was like "get to suckin"
@Khenti Khan WHO gives a fk what white people think? I hope you don't.
“Mommy gotta have a life to “😂😂
"Fuck you bruh" 🤣🤣
😭😭😭🤣
@@samgunz1 fawkkk😂😂
@@samgunz1 😂😂😂😂
“too”
Vlad go get Ving for an interview my guy. On another note, AJ Johnson is 59 years young looking like this. A testament to taking care of her body
That’s a lot surgery fam.
@@Fitbyyah not sure if I agree. You gotta take a look at her fitness videos. She’s still killing it. Now if we’re talking Vivica Fox or Nicki Minaj, I’d agree
@@charliecheetah4654 not saying she doesn’t keep up ⬆️ but you can tell her face got work done. Look 👀 at how she keep look at the camera and her skin does not move ?
I’m just saying. In the end everyone got they own goals.
Halle berry around her age and look 20x better
She looks old
@@Fitbyyah I have to respectfully disagree. You’ve got to check out here fitness videos. I think that you’d think otherwise. AJ is a beast. Ripped and shredded at her age
I absolute loved Omar's character.....and to be as funny as he naturally is, it showed incredible acting chops for him to be so convincing as a no-nonsense gansta!!!!!
Facts
You have never been around real gangsters if you think that performance was accurate
@@jackstephonski2421 it’s a movie. It’s not that deep 😅
Nawh he ain't got nothing on his brother..
woa woa. lmao. u actually thought he was tough n that movie??? I laughed every scene he was in. he was hilarious ctfu
Ving Rhames is goated i swear every movie he in he stay punking everybody, I remember him being in holiday heart and he was walking in crackhouses dressed in drag beating everybody ass 😂😂
Just like he was punking people in holiday heart and chuck and Larry
@@thisbigblacdingdang6135 lmbao 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dude went suge knight in one of the award shows. Must of been BET
Except pulp fiction
@@jeremypollock1029 Lol I mean Samuel L Jackson and John Travolta helped redeem him 😂 he at least had goons in that movie
I got strawberry soda, milk, water.. ima get you some strawberry soda. Lol love that part
“Give me a minute Jody, I’m talkin 2 my family!” 🤣
@@YxnginJesusLovesU lmao that whole scene is hilarious
Don't forget the juicy juice 🤣
@@YxnginJesusLovesU I never figured out if he was banging the BOTH OF EM or wtf was going on lmao.
@@coreyhall1150 facts that did sound crazy🤣🤣
John wasn't going to stop the love scenes until somebody bussed off😂
🤦🏿♂️🤣😂🤣😂
😂😂
Hell he let that one go almost to climax
Lol, Damn
Yo if I was Ving in those situations wit AJ, would I want John to yell some damn cut? "J, I AM cuttin'!" 😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣
Right before Jody and Melvin fight, there is a scene where Jody is confronting her about Melvin. The look she gave him is like she wants to punch him in the face FOR REAL like she was actually mad as a person and not as the character. Her skills are impeccable.
When she cried in Baby Boy I felt that pain. 💯
@@dsales2011 Right??? I was thinking that too while watching this interview. That monologue she did in 'Baby Boy' about life's journey. The best you can do is plant yourself a nice little garden at your corner of the world and watch it grow. That was coming from A.J.'s HEART. I saw her in a whole new light as an actress after that.
@@damemarthafalker6738 she definitely seems like a deep woman that has had some experiences
I will always remember Him from Wild And Crazy Kids. I wanted to be on that show in my childhood. That show was super cool. On Nickelodeon
You made me go back in time❤
I'll always remember him from that, " Ghost Dad " , and " Smart Guy ".
Wi-wild and Crazy (Kids)
Yassss!!! The joint
Mo Tibbs!
Omar: I was just fired up
Pea: FIRED UP?!
Instantly starting laughing 🤣🤣
Ima go get you some strawberry soda
The fact that Cuba and Omar came from the same daddy🤣. They are so opposite from each other
I had no idea. Wtf
@@bamaisland3348 🤣🤣🤣. Yup.
They look just alike.. well at least you can tell they have the same daddy and are brothers!
@@mrquick6775 even the roles that they play in Movies are so different.
Their personalities make it hard to believe.
Omar and Tyrese character when they were about to spin on Snoop was my favorite scene.
The whole cast did a great job.
Highly entertaining movie from start to finish. One of my all time favorites. Everybody nailed their acting parts.
He must of told Omar "Want some breakfast"
🤣🤣
LMAOOOO
Awesome details n energy John put into it
Every movie I’ve seen with AJ in she always keeps it 💯 % ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️actress
I guess what she said about having dudes running a train on her to become relavent again worked because sex sells.
What else she play in fr was she in Class act
I love her voice
Me too! 🥰
Just a gorgeous, incredibly talented actress. She knocked this role out of the park. The scene where she goes off on Jody is one of my favorite parts from any of the “urban” movies from the late 80s- mid 90s.
She looks better now than she did then.
Bane punched a pillar in The Dark Knight Rises.@@pugachevskobra5636
How can you tell with all that damn paint on her face. I hate when people dont look natural.
Ving Rhames and Omar Gooding's characters shoulda fought in the movie
Who taking the L?
@@Warrenwoon Omar Gooding aka “Sweet Pea” is taking the L if he’s by himself. But I’m assuming Jody is fighting too.
Omar was finna smoke him 🔫
Not so much fight but I wish they at least had more scenes together or interacted with each other a bit more. Sweet Pea always came off as what Melvin was like 20 years prior to the movie or before he was locked up. Seems like a missed opportunity.
@@Warrenwoon It was shown that Sweet Pea was the better fighter than Jodi in two scenes. Melvin downed Jodi with one punch. So Sweet Pea vs Melvin would have been a fight to see. I think Melvin would take the W.
Nice interview good to see her from baby boy I love that movie 💯
Rest in Peace John man.. Forever gon Be the Best tht ever did it!!
Facts
Wait wait wait.... Y'all telling me y'all think baby boy was better than higher learning.... Was better than BOYZ N THE HOOD?!?!?
@@durapoker man shutup people can have their own opinion
@@Hinokami777 I think he was trying to engage in a conversation bruh not say you were wrong
@@williep200707 some ppl are sooo sensitive. I was just making sure ppl didn't forget about the movie that started Cube's career and propelled Cuba and Morris and Fishburne's careers and others.... Including John himself. Just saying... But I guess I'm not allowed to say so I'll shut up lol.
" if we was on lockdown I make you get on ya knees and FIX IT!" 🤣😂 I remember my Dad taking us to see Baby Boy, 3 movies for the price of 1. Good times! RIP Dad
Omars character was the best in baby boy
Acting is truly a craft and takes real talent to deliver. I love hearing how these characters are developed
Hello
Something I have been in search for quite sometime is a connection with somebody that goes beyond vanity. It's very hard to do in this day and age. People can be, somewhat very superficial.
On my quest to achieve this I have learnt a lot about human nature. It seems to me that those who are not given traits such as beauty or being wealthy are some of the nicest, kindest and generous people.
While the "gorgeous" and well off seem to be the most arrogant and greedy people out there. Of course that's not to say there aren't beautiful kind people out there.
I've been in the process of change for a while now and I have made some decent changes but don't you just hate it when people can't let go of your past mistakes.
I saw your profile and it intrigued me. I wanted to learn more about who you are and what type of path you would like on in life.
Can we talk?
The best actors are the best LIARS!! The CRAFT is learning how to LIE convincingly.
Omar Gooding said he wanted to test himself 🤣💪
The Difference between a Grown Boy and a Grown Man!!!😂😂😂😂😂
This is amazing
For a movie that so unintentionally funny, the actors took their jobs serious asf. I might need to watch Baby Boy (not on BET, the uncensored one.. ima still laugh at it on BET regardless) again but sober to really appreciate the hard work they put into it.
@Joseph Eppley beat you a lil fort huh….. man fuck yo fort😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
BET’s commercials run too long. More commercial than movie.
Nah watch the BET version 😂
@@popeye5274 Hell yeah BET commercials be like 30 min long and shit 😂
“Funk you lil homie and funk yo fort”
This really highlights how dope of a director John was
Yup
Yes👏🏾🙏🏾❤
That closeness showed up on the screen too! I love watching Baby Boy to this very day!❤ 🍿 🎥
Lmaooo Omar Gooding took his character to much to heart lol
The whole cast is underrated.
Thats why Baby Boy was so good...them folks was real life into character 🤣🤣😂😂
Aj Johnson is still beautiful she definitely aged well good lord
🧢
@@AtlantaHoodHistorian 😂
Loved her when she was Miss Maroon and White back in the mid eighties and still love her now! I remember her coming out at her coronation to Curtis Blow's "AJ!"
Yeah that's cap she old now
@@terrelljohnson4123
You wrong for that dawg 🤣
John needs to hold this W for letting the love scenes keep rolling. “Ol ninja squat!”
😭😭😭
☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️🤣😂🤣
I was in love with this woman since I first saw her in House Party …
She’s still Gorgeous af 🔥
since house party 😁
@@JoeJacksonsBelt Wouldn't it have been cool to have met her at that party and kicked it with her after !!??
U can hit! She just admitted she got trained on..lol
I saw some recent pics of her, bruh she is ripped and I mean on some bodybuilder shit. But yea she's fine
Thats clearly a lot of makeup homie
She is still and always will be so beautiful. Love you Queen!
😘
Makeup brother stop
@@billynation4113 u gay
@@billynation4113 you clearly haven't seen her without makeup👑
@@DArtmanreignz With make up 😬
Ving Rhames "Melvin" was from Hoover in Baby Boy, not NHC 🤦🏾...
What scene did it say I did not pay attention to none of that. Most Iconic scenes in baby boy were that weird flashback scene Jody got shot at. That tripped me tf out as a kid. And the second scene...where the kids jumped Jody 😂😂😂😂😂
He had Hoover tats hahahah
Lmao that nigga said he was one of them rollin crips 🤦🏿♂️
They say it. He was from 107 Hoover
The scene where they show his back tattoo
"When I saw that...this is gonna be good" lmfao🤣
This woman is so incredibly talented and beautiful!🤗🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
And freaky
@@ace1007 she's human. How was you born....🤷🏾♂️ but I understand lol
Pretty as hell!!!
Beautiful? Something is wrong with y’all’s eyes for sure. She is not pretty anymore.
She's hella dope. Always been.
Wow very well said!
Singleton was a genius
I wish they would've let him direct the 2Pac biopic instead of Benny Boom.
@@torrisfairley3227 I agree
Movies were a little stereotypical but he was a great director.
@@torrisfairley3227 nah because he was a low key hater
@@torrisfairley3227 Didn't he and Pac fell out
She was fine in House Party, fine in Baby Boy and fine now.
Great intel
Great commentary

Vlad I love your interviews! You are a great journalist! I love this interview with AJ! I remember her from the Kid and Play house party movies and Baby Boy. I had heard a celebrity mention how she helped them spiritually, so I always wondered what her new role was in life. You hit it big in having this interview. She is totally on the path of where I am in my life. I love her. She gave a lot pearls. This was a spectacular interview. I'm logging on to AJZone right now! VLAD keep up the amazing work that God has you doing. This was beautiful to my soul.
Yeah, I think Omar Gooding is highly underrated, I am surprised I don't see him in more movies

This guy is a real genuine dude I remember partying with him in North Hollywood at Jerry's Deli on New years a night I'll never forget Omar Goodding
Jody... Marvin please believe me😂😂😂
Melvin whooped Jody and P🤣
I see what’s going on here. Vlad only interviews who he can interrogate.
He said, “ na I can’t get sh*t outta her” 😂

Baby Boy felt scary real when everybody first saw it 🤬🤔🤯
😂😂😂 wish I could've did a love scene with ma!!
