    People like Sidney & Dre unfortunately exist in the real world. I call them "time wasters." Not only do they waste their time but other people's time & emotions too. They play the "pick me" dance for years. When confronted, they get defensive & try to gaslight to make it seem like everyone else is delusional. This movie ties this chaotic dynamic up in a nice bow. But the reality is people like Sidney & Dre are emotionally draining

    Man Brown Sugar brought back so many memories. I remember when I was in Kindergarten when it first released in theaters and I went with my mom to go see it. I also had a childhood female friend that I used to see all the time like she will come to my birthday parties & everything so every time I see this movie it instantly reminds me of her. & funny thing is I think was either 5 or 6 years old at the time but I remember watching this movie with my mom & dad & I was singing the hoe is mine and my mom and my dad kept fussing at me & tell me not to say that so I was confused as hell at the time because I thought it was an innocent song but now that I’m older & actually understood what they was saying I be busting out laughing every time that studio scene come on 🤣😂 But Dre was an absolute hypocrite he pretty much cheated on Reese the whole entire movie & took no accountability but made her out the bad guy when she went on a date with Richard Lawson.

    This movie made me realize that there’s a special place in heyol for women who choose to be Pick Me’s instead of acting on their true desires. Sitting in the friend zone like it gives them some special award for not being like other women “allegedly”. It’s sad, pathetic and treasonous to other black women. Why?
    She sits in her little friend zone watching other women get what she truly wants, jealous because he’s choosing someone else and not her. Thing is, the woman is never honest about why she’s in the friend zone to begin with!
    There’s always a reason why she chose not to take things to the next level. Truth is bw know more than they lead on. Usually the male bestie usually does messed up things to women and keeping him in the friend zone is safer than her fing around and finding out. But she doesn’t mind watching him do it to other bw, excusing it as him being immature. Just like in this movie, she’s suddenly ready to confess her love when he “matures” and has fallen for someone else 😒.
    She’s the one who will defend his messed up ways down to the socks by saying “he’s never done that to me.” While watching him do it to other women. Dre definitely said and did a few messed up things in her face and she let it slide:
    1) His definition of Brown Sugar
    2) Asking a woman he doesn’t know to be his wife based on how she looks.
    3) Talking to her first and not his girlfriend/fiancé
    The only thing good about this movie was the soundtrack. I’m glad they never made a part 2 to this fantasy because even though they ended up together, it never really works out in real life.
    Great recap per usual 🥰.

    "Brown Sugar" One of my Childhood Favorite Movies 🎥🍿.
    Dope Classic/Cast:
    Sanaa Lathan
    Taye Diggs
    Queen Latifah
    Mos Def
    Boris Kodjoe
    Nicole Ari Parker
    My thoughts on the Movie 🎥:
    Dre and Sidney Were Both Successful, Musically Inclined People who Meant Well, just was Caught up in their Childhood Feelings for One Another.
    Boris and Nicole Were Not Their Type because Reese was Not Supportive of his Dreams/Career, and Kelvin was not Supportive of Syd's Dream/Career.
    It's still funny how Dre said,
    "We're going to Celebrate My Divorce" 🤣.
    In Conclusion, I Love this Classic Movie 🎥 and I love your Reviews Keep it up Queen.
    2024 Requests:
    The Best Man (25 Years Old This Year)

Feel like every Taye Diggs character’s in All Black Cast movies in the 00s was just a prequel to his character getting his comeuppance in The Best Man, which he still doesn’t get all that much of a comeuppance
