[CoryMack]

thought it was gonna be this. shyt still makes me laugh. hate i can't find the whole scene cause the end of the bar scene is a classic. it's in the second link but i can't embed it



Who you trying to be, R. Kelly?

Jakob Elinsky: I kissed her.
Frank Slaughtery: You what?
Jakob Elinsky: My student. I kissed her.
Frank Slaughtery: Who are you trying to be, R Kelly?

 

[Methodical]

One of the greatest scene

When Malcolm X saw these two brothers about to murder him and he was smiling and I wonder why did he smile?

 

[mamba]

I love this song



The soul the voice
The 60s were dope so much excellence

Breh's voice just leaps off the record. Hard to believe he's been dead close to 60 years. A true legend.

knew he was gonna die, and was probably relieved it was over. i imagine it was alot harder on him waiting and wondering where when how and who was gonna come at him.

The crazy thing is they were all connected, so the song has even more significance. Sam Cooke was killed two months before Malcolm X.

They were all friends.

Yeah, I get all of that til the smile part. I was assuming he's glad that was NOI brothers murdered him, not some cac ones.

So

They even used the song in the Ali movie.



Ali, Malcolm X and Cooke are inextricably linked.

They were friends and were, in my opinion, targeted to be underminded by those in power.

Every time I put that song on, I feel Jesus

 

[Cadillac]

Top 5 classic cinema. May sit down and watch tonight.

Don't sleep on Aretha's Someday We'll All Be Free over the credits.

 

[Dameon Farrow]

Had no idea she performed it live!

 

[Heafcliffe]

Mane, when I am a little down and need encouragement, "A Change Gone Come" always comes through in the clutch.

Powerful song.

Powerful song.

You can put this one on right before Change





and then follow Change with this one





I always feel like I can get out of any situation when I play those three songs back to back.

 

[Ziggiy]

Spike is the GOAT director because he traslates the black experience so raw and honestly i am legit shocked that the powers that be let him last beyond School Daze.

Dude is one of the most talented filmakers to ever breathe. One of the most talented writers also.
