Yes this was the first movie about the crack epidemic in Black America even tho it was not to accurate at times. It did show how the drug turned neighborhoods into hoods. The first time I went to the movies alone in 1990/91 at 14 yo. I became obsessed with movie and still thanked it to this day for keeping me from never touching crack.
This is a great classic. At the end when the old man was pulling out his gun, you'll see Scotty (Ice-T) was gonna stop him but he was like f*ck that, shoot that monster.
Coming from NYC i can tell u that New Jack era was so much fun. Great music, styles, hairdo's and all. U heard Queen Latifah in the beginning, the groups Guy and LeVert in the mix among other great artists. Kareem was R&B singer Christopher Williams who never acted before, his music was played, and u even got the Reverend played by Nick Ashford from Ashford & Simpson. The legendary rapper Fab 5 Freddy as the Master of Ceremonies and Keith Sweat singing at the wedding and alot more. So much talent. Love this movie!🔥I would recommend "Romeo Must Die"(2000) with Jet Li and the late, beautiful Aaliyah💙
The guys singing are called Troop a popular group in the late 80s early 90s who such fans of New Edition and performed their songs on a show called Putting on the Hits a popular lip sync show in the 80s they formed their own group. They patterned themselves after The Jackson 5 & NE. The second group was Levert the sons of Eddie Levert of the Ojays and legends in the their own right. Rip Reggie Warren, Sean and Gerald Levert🙏🏾
There was a NINO BROWN in every major city in America in the 1980's and 90's. Some were even worse. Our Nino in WASHINGTON D.C. during this time was Rayful Edmunds. I had a relative who was a hired gunman for Edmunds was sentenced to 22- 100 year sentences serve consecutively.
Definitely was. I loved how 'Paid in Full' talked about how 'Scarface' had such a deep, powerful effect on the young men from that era wanting to be gangsters and so tough and violent. It's proof that rap was so effected by films like Scarface, GoodFellas, and this to try and emulate those folks from the mafia era and the impact it had on so many communities.
Yoooo, this channel is too dope. Yall reactions are really engaged and you 2 together are a rare treat. The way you compliment each other's thoughts, down to the subtleties of Amanda yanking the ear bud out at the end of every reaction. You def got a community of subs rooting for yall. We wanna follow yall through your journey, down to the Wedding day. 😄😁. This channel tough, Real Tlk!!
Aw man, y'all been rolling through a lot of classics. This should be fun to watch. It's dope to see young people embracing stuff like this in addition to more current films. Keep doing your thing, yo!
met G- Money in Times Square a couple years after 9/11 on New Years Eve night. dude was mad cool. him and his lady stopped and chopped it up with us for like a good 10min then when on with their business.
3:43 Back in the late 1980s and early 1990s Jeep really popular everywhere. They made special subwoofer boxes that would specifically fit a Jeep. By the time you got done customizing your jeep spend around 20 grand and another 6 grand on the car audio system.
Man, them days boy lol. All the rappers and R&B singers would literally get on half the records and say "this is for the Jeeps, strictly for the Jeeps..." 😂
New jack city feels like a horror movie because lots of people get killed. I felt so bad for Chris Rock man. Wesley Snipes and Ice T are an awesome duo.
The 1991 film New Jack City was not directly based on a specific gang, but it drew significant inspiration from real-life criminal organizations, including Detroit’s Chambers Brothers and Young Boys Inc. (YBI). These two groups were infamous for their innovative drug distribution tactics and street dominance during the 1970s and 1980s. Chambers Brothers The Chambers Brothers, originally from Arkansas but based in Detroit, became notorious for creating a crack cocaine empire. They were known for their use of young, impressionable workers to run their operations and for leveraging abandoned homes as crack houses. Their rise and fall closely resemble some of the plot elements in New Jack City, particularly the organized and hierarchical nature of the fictional Carter drug enterprise. Young Boys Inc. (YBI) Young Boys Inc., also a Detroit-based operation, was one of the first gangs to employ minors as drug couriers to avoid legal repercussions. Their innovative approach to drug trafficking and emphasis on using the community's youth could also have influenced the portrayal of Nino Brown's operations in New Jack City. Connections to the Film While New Jack City primarily fictionalized the rise and fall of a drug kingpin named Nino Brown (played by Wesley Snipes), it clearly incorporated elements of real-life drug empires, blending influences from multiple sources, including Detroit's gang culture, New York City's crack epidemic, and broader national trends in organized crime. Director Mario Van Peebles and writer Barry Michael Cooper have acknowledged the film's roots in real-life events and figures, including Detroit's drug scene and the crack epidemic of the 1980s. So while New Jack City wasn't directly based on YBI or the Chambers Brothers, their influence on the film's narrative and depiction of the crack cocaine trade is undeniable.
They were partners. The money/power corrupted Nino. The whole movie's about his descent into darkness. It starts with him dropping someone to his death and ends with him literally falling to his own. His last chance for redemption was when he didn't show mercy to G-Money and just leave town with him. Sparing his "brother" was his final chance to accept the grace of God and redeem himself but mentally he was too far gone and didn't know it....
This movie is loosely based on the crack era in general. Even tho it was inspired by the Chambers Brothers, The Supreme Team was doing this as well in Queens and various other spots in NYC. But I’m glad yall did a movie review on this becuz yall seem like yall were born in the 2000s. It’s a really good educational movie. I was born in the 80s but raised in the 90s going into the easily 00s which was my teenage years by 2001. I remember being a kid in the 90s and I saw how crack affected the community back in the day. It set a lot of ppl back, it was a dirty era. Definitely do yall research on the crack era and how it got started it’s a deep story. I just hope crack don’t make a comeback in the near future becuz u have a whole generation growing up that don’t know anything about that drug. They’ll think they r trying something new and will mess their life up.
Everywhere. Oakland, Detroit, Houston, Miami. That's why so many related to it. Like Quik had that song "Jus Lyke Compton" back in the day. The crack epidemic was unfortunately OUR story, not just one cities. Too many young bros exposed to too much money and power and willing to do anything to get their hands on it. I don't think crack will ever make a comeback; the name itself holds too much of a negative association culturally but the lean and pills are basically the same thing, they just not running around willing to steal people's TVs to get some.
New Jack City is one of my favorite movies. That, Boyz N The Hood, Juice & Menace II Society is the Mount Rushmore of hood classics. Each movie taught us life lessons, launched a lot of careers, starrs rappers, directed by black film directors, people have named themselves after the characters, each movie has been referenced in songs, other movies & tv shows & each movie is still relevant 30 plus years later. Wesley Snipes was a household name in the 90s. He went toe to toe with the likes of Denzel Washington, Laurence Fishburne & Samuel L. Jackson. Pookie should have been in the X games the way he was riding that bicycle. Here are some fun facts: Martin Lawrence was supposed to play Pookie. He didn’t due to the untimely death of his mentor comedian/actor Robin Harris who played Kid’s dad in House Party. Martin took Robin’s death really hard. Chris Rock bombed the audition. What made the writers, directors & producers have a change of heart when he said it keeps calling me man & calling me man. He embodied the crackhead role. Detective Stone was played by the director of this movie Mario Van Peebles. Vin Diesel was in this movie. He was a bouncer at the club in the beginning. He’s unrecognizable because he had hair. R.I.P. to Bill Nunn (Duh Duh Man) & Bill Cobbs (The Old Man). I would for you guys to watch the following movies: King Of New York Fresh South Central New Jersey Drive Blue Hill Avenue Deep Cover In Too Deep Brooklyn’s Finest Sugar Hill (1994)
Yeah the story was inspired by the Chambers Bros from Detroit. But there is no Nino Brown irl. Also this is where the Cash Money stuff came from and where Lil Wayne got the idea to name his albums the Carter.
It's based on a lot of cats. Some cats from Oakland too but I can't remember their names. In all honesty, it was happening all over the country which is why so many people related to it.
@@stopmotionmangemantproduct1111 That's the one. Couldn't think of his name at all but I definitely done heard a bunch of the OGs mention him in convos reminiscing bout the old days over the years.
Growing up in the hood in the 80s/90s was basically a mix of House Party, Boyz n the Hood, New Jack City, Juice, Menace to Society and Friday. If you came up then, I know that analogy makes total sense to you lol.
Your next reaction should be American Gangster starring Denzel & Russell Crowe. Also a good comedy movie The Nice Guys starring Ryan Gosling & Russell Crowe.
Another great reaction. I put this movie in the same category as Boyz-N-The-Hood, Menace To Society, Juice. They’re all classic hood movies that came out in the early 90s.
I remember yrs ago , that ice T made a song called cop Killa , so it's just funny to me that he's been playing as a cop in this movie and on the law & order TV show
Porkie’s death is sad but he should’ve never been in there in the first place just saying come on recovering drug attic in a room full of drugs does not sound to like a good plan
Yo bless you guys for watching New Jack. One of my old favorites. Im glad to see some people from the younger generation checking it out. Great perfomance from Wesley Snipes
Just seeing the thumbnail. Haven't reacted to this yet. Add to comment first. I'm over excited. For this reaction. My favorite movie all time. Nino brown. This is actually based on a true story. As you know. Now reading the End credits. Check out another movie by wesley snipes Call Sugar Hill. I'm not against the movie. Keep gride Yo
The city I’m living in is Oakland, California and there was a gangster person who did something like that at these apartments that he took over. I wasn’t living there at that time. I just got told the stories about what happened at those apartments from people who been in that situationabout it
Those are some of the most known but you look up basically all the major cities in the US at the time and they had their own equivalent to those guys. Detroit, LA, Oakland, Houston, Chicago. That's why the epilogue said what it did: ".... there are Nino Brown's in every major city in America."
@dawb86 yeah but I can only speak on the ones that I knew of in Tri-State area and since this young couple is from that area and since this film was shot in that area......
@@noizynaybah5827 Nah, I wasn't disagreeing with you. Just saying like Too Short with "The World Is a Ghetto" or Quik with "Just Lyke Compton," it wasn't a NY struggle. It was OUR plight/struggle. I think these young cats need a modern era message movie like this or 'Menace to Society' almost more than we did back then. This era of rap gives so little in the way of morals or consequences in the music and got them out here stalking their own neighborhoods like zombies with a nine tucked in their sweater smh....
That's very funny and true what you said about Ice-T. He was a pimp before he became a rapper. Check him out in the HBO documentary 'Pimps Up, Ho's Down' from 1998.🤭
New Jack City is much more true than a fiction movie like Scarface. In the 80s and 90s this was a reality. Supreme Team Queens NY, Fat Kat Harlem. Big U in Cali, Junior Black Mafia North Philly Philladelphia. Detroit, Chicago, Atlanta with The BMF. These things happened for real, not fiction but facts. There are deaths and people never coming home.
I love yall! Y’all are so adorable 🥰 My daughter is around your ages and she’s never seen a lot of these movies either. So I subscribed to yall channel so we can watch em together. It’s become our new quality time activity. Sending ❤frm NYC🗽🫶🏾🙏🏾
I love y’all reaction channel. You m almost 30 years older than talk, so I have some good suggestions for you. Fallen(1995), True Romance (1993), Tales From The Crypt: Demon Knight(1995),Quarantine (2098), This Is The End (2013), Halloween 4, Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter(1984), Very Bad Things(1998), Grandma’s Boy(2006)
BINGE TIES ....Up Next With Morris Chestnut 2 Can Play That Game & THe Brothers......& Above The Rim With 2 Pac.......& Deliver Us From Eva With Gabrielle Union 🤣
This movie based on a true story.They did this in Chicago Took over a building and started hustling out of it I heard chicago not detroit but I may be wrong
From Detroit, they’re Chambers from Detroit and AR. Also many buildings gotten taken over in city…..but this was happening nationwide so I’m sure every city can relate on some level
The same thing we try to say about these rappers now with the negative messages in their music but no one wants to listen just like they didn't then.....
Nino was so funny bro…“You still mad at me, well F you then.” 😂😭
New jacket is a Black people version of Scarface
Facts!!
@@corryhill Nino Brown is the black version of Tony Montana.
the mob atailin bosses are soft doeboy would have the scarface dude shaking in facwe to face contact
@cadenlewis213 People really still trolling in 2024? 😩💀
Yup.
i love that y'all are young and y'all are literally falling in love with all the movies i grew up on in real time

This is a straight up hood classic. Since you checking this out, you got to check out "The King Of New York" also.. Another classic.
"for the bullet holes puta!" amazing classic
Ninos character is insane. Like very unhinged, does not care, hurts and kills with zero remorse. Wesley killed in this villain role.
This is a great classic. At the end when the old man was pulling out his gun, you'll see Scotty (Ice-T) was gonna stop him but he was like f*ck that, shoot that monster.

GREAT MOVIE 🔥YOU GUYS SHOULD WATCH...IN TOO DEEP, JASON'S LYRIC, AMERICAN GANGSTER
"Rocka bye baby" Man the coldest line and scene in films and the most underrated. Checkout the soundtrack for this movie by the way
Y’all gotta watch Sugar Hill as well, movie is dope
That one gets more underrated nowadays. If 'New Jack City' is Snipes' 'Scarface,' I'd say that one is his 'Carlito's Way.'

Realistically Wesley Snipes and Chris Rock carried this movie
Great reaction. All the right cuts. Really tight “throw him down to me!”
g money stars in house of pain by tyler perry. this movie made everybody a star
That's Allen Payne From The House of Payne

The Duh Duh Man is Bill Nunn (Radio Raheem from Do The Right Thing
Another good movie is the Principal.
The soundtrack is dope
38:00 I love when people notice that lol
Classic 🌟
You might also like Ice-T's cult classic: Mean Guns.
"This is bigger than Nino Brown!"
Another recommendation Deep Cover with Jeff Goldblum and Laurence fishburne.
Those singers by the trash can are the r&b singing group Troop
Loved me some Troop!
Jason's lyric is also a great movie
Wesley killed the role of Nino. Top ten black villains in my book.
The wedding scene the guy singing is Keith Sweat. You should check out his music.
BINGE TIES ....Up Next With Morris Chestnut 2 Can Play That Game & THe Brothers......& Above The Rim With 2 Pac.......& Deliver Us From Eva With Gabrielle Union 🤣
ice tea had a cool role i feel like he imtimadated nino brown they way he looked back at him at the club party
can yall please react to “The Warriors” movie frm 1979 its a cult classic🤝🏾🤝🏾
This movie based on a true story.They did this in Chicago Took over a building and started hustling out of it I heard chicago not detroit but I may be wrong
Chambers brothers from AR.
And yes, its a true story regardless of names. Crack era was real. Deeper than just a movie..
From Detroit, they’re Chambers from Detroit and AR. Also many buildings gotten taken over in city…..but this was happening nationwide so I’m sure every city can relate on some level
The real Carter was in Detroit not New York. It’s taken from real events but it’s fiction.
🙏🏾. New Jersey Drive & Clockers reaction. Yall will be one of the first reaction channels to react to those movies. In the 5 spot maybe.
Other 90s classics Boyz N the Hood, Juice, Menace to Society.
They already reacted to those movies
Yeah back in the day everybody was wildin out
3:44 yo tht 📞 is huuuuuge! 😂
Watch Do the Right Thing.
This movie is hilarious 🤣😂
You guys need to watch BREAKING ALL THE RULES with Gabriel Union and Jamie Foxx.
It's a real song. Song: Guy- Grove Me
That bogus give back to the community he's destroying there is no give back in that
The same thing we try to say about these rappers now with the negative messages in their music but no one wants to listen just like they didn't then.....
Yall gotta watch “White men can’t jump” next . Is a Wesley snipes comedy
As I watched the en of your video I apologize you sounded green at first but you genuine fam
PDiddy was trying to live out his Nino Brown fantasies but with 10x more money and dudes
Another New York Classic!!
It’s set in New York. Based on the chambers brothers from Detroit.
@chadd3299 Detroit has a history in organized crime...It's overshadowed I think by places like Chicago and New York.
Yall should check CB4 , thats a parody on NWA, with chris rock and that right hand of wesley snipes
New jack new jack new jack hustler new new new new new new new jack hustler
