Juice is one of the early 90s 4 hood classics

[$cam-U-Well_Jack$on]

Menace & Boyz are tiers above those movies. It’s almost disrespectful

Agreed.

Strictly Business was a hood classic as well.


And how y’all gonna leave our House Party

Friday, poetic justice, and above the rim…the 90s

What other films are in consideration?? I’m heavy into reminiscing now lol.

Set It Off for sure. The Inkwell isn’t a hood film but it needs props lol. I’d throw Above The Rim in there but honestly there’s a full group of hoop films that could be separate.

Fresh
Above the Rim
Strapped
Sugar Hill
New Jersey Drive
South Central
Dead President

I'm sure there so many from that time. My TikTok channel is basically just random nostalgia shyt I think of that day though.

So many blassics

I sincerely believe Pac would have an Oscar or at least be nominated if he lived

Pac would have been what Jamie Foxx ended up being.

Doing the music stuff, maybe even having a podcast because you know Pac loved dropping knowledge. He could play the "good guy" (Poetic Justice) or the "problem guy" (Juice) better than most actors.

Most of the hood movies were NYC or LA.

Were there any Chicago/Detroit/Baltimore/NOLA/DC 90s hood movies?

Houston had Jason's Lyric which is hood-ish, maybe.

Plus all the main actors were from Jersey, Baltimore, NY so the accents were . Like having Master P as the main character in a Brooklyn hood movie

Dame must have been out of town at a "Bosses' Convention", which caused the PAUSEbots that patrol Harlem to malfunction and not be able to prevent debauchery like Steel doing the "Oochie Coochie" with DONALD Bromwell.
