Baby Boy was part of John's hood Trilogy. Boyz N The Hood, Poetic Justice, and Baby Boy. Salute to you beautiful AJ Johnson and R.I.P. to the awesome John Singleton. I'm so glad that I had the opportunity to meet John twice here in L.A.
"You ain't stupid, Yvette. You're just in love with a man. When you in love with a man, he can make you feel high. So high you just be in outer space. But a man can also make you feel low. Real low. And he can keep you there. Keep you down. If you let him. Don't even worry about feeling used. It's just temporary. Everyone gets used. Men use women, women use men. Just face the fact you're going to be used. But if you feel so used, you ain't got nothing left, if the man ain't giving you the energy you need to love his ass -- even when he's acting like a bastard, then you need to let it go. If you ain't got nothing to give yourself or your baby then how you going to have it to give to him." - HITS DIFFERENTLY WHEN U HAVE A CHILD

You can also tell how youthful she was in her character, she had Jody and his bro at a young age so you see her trying to live what young days she couldn't as a adolescent with kids through her n Melvin new relationship

She gives such incredible insight into John’s directing style. She is one of the only ones I have heard really talk about his directing; and she does it in such a captivating yet simple way.

I remember the summer of '01 it was my cousin's birthday and we went to see Baby Boy. I was 15 and he was turning 16 and we cracked up the whole movie! Meanwhile my brother and his friend (our ride) decided they didn't wanna see the movie and stayed in the car smoking weed the entire time. We got in the car and weed smoke was all in our lungs. We got a contact on the way home. Good memories!
The way they adlib these iconic scenes is pure genius from Singleton. Miss Johnson & the cast were terrific. I'm pretty sure the same techniques were used on 'Poetic Justice' between Lucky and Justice.

@@LIG87 I honestly think she looks better now than she did then, and it's not like I have a thing for older women. It's just how some people age. Part of it is probably her more polished style now. 🤷🏿♂️

How come all of these decades, nobody (Especially Black Women) ever care to point out that in “Baby Boy”, Jodie’s Momma was still living in her own Momma’s house as an Adult, all the while tellin’ Jodie that he needs to “grow up” & “Be a Man”?
Crazy thing is she actually IS old enough to be Tyrese’s momma (a young one but still). She just LOOKS like she’s his age. But it’s so many beautiful black momma’s like that including my own💪🏾.

@@Christionbridges yup
My favorite line. That has always stayed in my mind.
I absolutely LOVED her in this role. It felt authentic and true.
I love the delivery and tone of when she was outside smoking and said to Jody “what you want Jody, some money?! I dont have any money right now.
So relatable!!!
You can tell she was being sincere

Stop talkin to me nigga got two days now
She nailed that role. An outstanding job is what she did. SALUTE
Nailed it hard and ruff

Yeah she nailed something alright.......2 stiff ones! She is 🗑️
3 days to apologize for disrespecting my women and showcasing a lack of knowledge
She is underrated
She’s like 15/16 years older than Tyrese, so could’ve been a teen mom. That’s what the role gave, and she brought it!
It was implied in the film.
You can also tell how youthful she was in her character, she had Jody and his bro at a young age so you see her trying to live what young days she couldn't as a adolescent with kids through her n Melvin new relationship
What an incredible performance by AJ and the whole crew. Baby Boy is an incredible movie 🎥

My favorite movie for sure
Love the movie.

My favorite line in that movie 😂.
She really shouldve been nominated for an award for Baby Boy. She killed it.

💯
@@Christionbridges This is AJ Johnson not Meg Thee Stallion in this vid I think you’re mistaken
💯
She was part of a classic 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
She def deserves her flowers!
When she says she wanted to impress her friend(John Singleton) and that she wanted him to be proud of her. I absolutely love that.
Baby boy resonated deeply in our community until this day.
She is such a pure and real soul. I ❤ her!!!

A.J Character definitely was A Favorite!
That sexy mom from the Hood!!
She killed it 💪🏾
Remember she was in House Party and killed that role as well
Hell yes
cheraine
She was amazing in "In the heat of the night" that's one of her dramatic roles in TV. She nailed that troubled teenage girl role.
She gives such incredible insight into John’s directing style. She is one of the only ones I have heard really talk about his directing; and she does it in such a captivating yet simple way.
Man Auntie killed that role. Classic movie!

when she was sitting down talking to her women to women on what to do

Lol sounding just like a black momma 😂
The thing I luv about AJ she is going to give you 100% in every character she portrays😁
I love how these interviews showcase how intelligent & professional AJ is. I never heard her speak this extensively before. She is an incredible lady.
Baby Boy is very underrated for its acting ad classic scenes!
As a 90s baby growing up n the 2000s i appreciate this Gem for our generation coming up, we had Baby Boy on VHS
AJ Johnson was majestic in her role on babyboy,,,,,couldn't imagine anyone else playing that role better than her....much love and respect BLACK QUEEN...❤
She took "Adrienne" out of the scene, but she unknowingly portrayed Adriane, a single mother of grown young man. She nailed it!!!!!!!!!!!

All I can think is boy “ she wanted a 3 some at 50, oh my Lawd “ 😂😂
That would be ‘the only thing you can think of’ …🙄. So what?
Lord bless her she still looks the same as she did 20 yrs ago, thats a beautiful Queen right there
She still looks good but she's definitely aged a little
@@LIG87 I honestly think she looks better now than she did then, and it's not like I have a thing for older women. It's just how some people age. Part of it is probably her more polished style now. 🤷🏿♂️
This particular interview is just so amazing and beautiful
Just classic, legendarious
Miss Johnson A Legend 💯💪🏾
