Yall gotta be mad young in here. Fresh a certified hood classic. Even calling it a hood classic feels too cheap for how dope it is. I figured most coli peeps of age been knowing about this movie. Props for stumbling on to it and checking it out though.

Just to be on the safe side, you have seen City of God right breh?

Chuck-E thought he was ready for that lifeHe was, but it was a short reign

if he had some aim, he'd have deaded those dudes

they stood there while he reached in the bag, pulled out the gun, and busted off shots

if the dummy didn't try to pick it up and get his hand caught, he'd still be alive

to be fair Fresh is pretty under the radar, i don't ever remember it being on the level of Boyz or Menace in terms of popularity. it's an amazing film, great story, great acting but it wasn't a box office smash. i wonder how many of the younger guys have seen movies like Jason's Lyric or Strapped.

The hell happened to black cinema...

Not even just a great black film, a great film in general.

Young Roddy used a lot of clips from Samuel L on the chorus of The Come Up on his last mixtape from this movie. Samuel L character was dropping knowledge throughout this shyt. Listen up.

Well, I'm the OP, and truthfully, I'm kinda old (40). I seriously never heard of this movie. Maybe I was smoking too heavy that year?

Yeah, I've seen City of God. Not sure why I missed Fresh.

Don't trip. Fresh wasn't publicized heavily when it came out. it was a low key flick until after it came out on video, that's when people heard about it.
