We talk about film that’s produced by, directed by, written, or acted by rappers. Check out the most recent episodes below, and follow us on apple podcasts.
We watched DEAD PRESIDENTS, a pretty good movie with an AWESOME soundtrack. Larenz Tate carries the film and 🚨SPOILER 🚨 Sticky Fingaz basically just shows up to die. Anthony plays two great tracks that tie into the political themes of the movie by Pharoahe Monch and R.A. The Rugged Man.
Read MoreCritic, filmmaker and video essayist Scout Tafoya came through to watch Ice Cube and Jennifer Lopez in a 90 minute classic.
Read MoreWe finally made it to episode 100. We watched a classic, starring Ice-T, Eek A Mouse and Levert and no one else.
Read MoreRest In Power to John Singleton. We watched HIGHER LEARNING in an attempt to pay tribute, but of course the episode just devolves into the usual nonsense.
Read MoreSTRAPPED is the directorial debut from Forest Whitaker starring the GAWD Bokeem Woodbine and Fredro Starr. We talk about the movie’s heavy subject matter, who the best actor in ONYX is and discuss Das EFX albums. We also play two songs both titled Forest Whitaker by Brother Ali and Migos.
Read MoreORIGINAL GANGSTAS is 2 movies. Classic blaxploitation film and 90s street life drama. And it’s one of the best films we’ve had the chance to talk about. We wrap up the episode playing songs by Dru Down and Freddie Gibson.
Read MoreJohn Duda from the Who Would Win In A Fight (WWWIAF) podcast came through to talk about DEEP BLUE SEA starring LL Cool J, Samuel L Jackson, Michael Rapaport and Janice Soprano. Imagine a movie podcast discussing what we didn’t like about the film. We’re quite sure it’s never happened before.
Read MoreWe Watched I GOT THE HOOK UP. We talked about the movie, No Limit rappers and the Master P school of marketing genius. We listened to No Limit classics from Fiend and Master P.
Read MoreOn episode 69 of BODEGA BOX OFFICE we watched GANG RELATED (2Pac, Kool Moe Dee). 2Pac was good, Jim Belushi was bad and we’re pretty sure he shared a fake beard with haggard Dennis Quaid. We wrap up with DOPE tracks from Tupac and OMB Peezy.
Read MoreSean McTiernan joined us to talk about his favorite movie from 1994, THE GLASS SHIELD (Ice Cube). It’s always fun when Sean stops by and boosts our film cred. He also picks a DEEP track from Scarface ft. Ice Cube and Devin the Dude.
Read MoreOn this episode we watch the Black Western epic POSSE (Tone Loc, Big Daddy Kane). The cast is so deep that Nipsey Russell gets only one line and Pam Grier just winks. We play the Big Daddy Kane remix of the classic “I’ll Take You There” to finish the episode.
Read MoreFor this episode Ryan and Anthony take a field trip to watch SET IT OFF. This is a movie we have somehow never seen, and if you haven’t, you should. If you want to skip our attempt at actual journalism to hear us carry on about a variety of subjects skip to 12:04 (you monster).
Read MoreWe did it. After being clowned at Anthony’s work holiday party by a half-drunk middle aged man, Ryan decided it was finally time to watch JUICE. To be fair, the film basically paved the way for rappers in movies and it’s easily a top 5 rap movie. Watch it, if for no other reason than to experience Tupac acting his ass off. Ant plays a 2PAC track and Ryan caps the episode with a great Donnie Brown song featuring Ghostface.
