As someone who grew up listening to him on the mixtapes I was happy as hell for him when he got that role, that was big…cats like him, J Millz, Cory gunz, Grafh etc was always expected to just stay street rappers so to see him make it to that National stage in a big movie like that was dope af
@@troydogg2716 hilarious how so many bozos on the net believe nonsense ... "I heard" ... lol Jamal wasnt no street dude man. he was a good kid. all them smack dvds got so many fooled lol.
And Natori Rocked it as well!!! Y’all did great 👍🏽 along with Derrick playing Puff!!! Tanic playing faith and of course Angela Basset the goat 🐐 playing Ms. Wallace!!! I loved it Folk!!!
I think the notorious movie was pretty good they covered most of the important stuff of his career. Pac was so legendary and did so much in a short time they crammed so much in that's what made his movie bad. R.I.P. to both the legends
I remember seeing his video on the Come-Up DVD! Vol. 13! it was a song he did with Akon and also the same Vol. Lil Wayne discovered Nicki. Never dawned on me it was the same dude playing Biggie!
I had the notorious movie the first day it came out in theaters on a bootleg DVD from a Korean store in my hood and the picture resolution was 1080p quality very perfect picture I still have it. Now we don't have to buy bootleg because everything is streaming now so it's very easy to find a movie that's in theaters on your smart tv and watch it for free but they been taking down a lot of the popular well known sites that had all the new movies and old movies from the 80s-2000s.
All eyez on me wasn’t as good as notorious because Gravy played Biggie perfectly. Nobody can play Tupac. His energy, his aura was too great. No actor can replicate PAC.
Gravy looked like he didn’t even want to be there in that bad bland movie All Eyez On Me. That movie is such a disappointment. One of the worst biopics.
I do believe that Gravy would have been one of the only cats who could have played BIG. But I must say that I lost all respect for Lil Kim after getting mad at Naturi Naughton for playing her in the movie. Naturi put all kinds of energy in that role. Yet Kim was mad because she was too ‘black’ to play her. Not sure if it was true, but It was rumored that she would have been cool with even a white actress to play her over Naturi. Which is fuckin ridiculous. That foreshadowed her self hate and all the bleaching and surgical procedures that she has now. Forgetting that she was a pretty brown skin woman prior to all that work she’s had done
Y’all keep saying Kim didn’t want Naturi to play her cuz she said she was “Too Black” but can’t find audio or a clip of her saying it and I’m sure Kim don’t care about your respect.
@@VNZWRLD it was all over the news fam. Plus we don’t care that you don’t hear audio proof. The same way she obviously doesn’t care about what fans think, is the same way those who know don’t care about what you think.
@@james441 you might be correct. Only those really in the loop would truly know. But that’s the word on the street and Kim never denied it when she was questioned about it
All Eyez on Me was a good film. I think that harsh feedback is largely parroted. Having grown up during the time, it was a good effort. The major drawbacks were lack of money - the set was not great - and not exploring Pac as rich as some would have liked yet the movie was just fine. The best movie on Pac was they one he narrated himself. The doc.
Peace Bro, I hope everything works out for you. I ain't Vlad but I been in business 20 years, and we know Vlad's a capitalist. You going about that all wrong, you sound like you're asking for a handout. You gotta show what you can do for VLAD. How can you help his business. Get your resume together with your skills and apply to his company and upload it. I found the link literally in 45 seconds, so I know you can. Good luck Bro

He is the best Biggie I ever seen so I can only respect his confidence
Notorious Was A Phenomenal Film & He Did A 110% in That Movie💯💯 Forever A Classic
Facts
Yes He did
MJ
He seems like a solid and genuine guy! He did a good job in his role as BIG
Good🙄. man that shit was Epic. Where Brooklyn at💪🏿
He did a great job
Right. Him and Angela Bassett. Saved the filmed.

Definition of Growth!! Gravy was a wild boy back then he was the Gun dude had guns in all his vids always was in the hood glad to see his growth 💯💯💪🏿
Growth comes as you get older if u smart, a wild boy idk bout that!!!
Yeah I heard he's a real street dude

Derek Luke playing puffy was hilarious 😂😂😂
Him dancing and shit lmao
I thought he did well lol
Why u say that
No he played Puffy very well!
@@dwilkinsworld he just didn't have the persona down
He did a great job playing BIG...blessings to him
Notorious was better than all eyes on me great way to show how biggie really was he was a real family oriented dude & it showed in that movie
He definitely got that BIG "swag". You can tell he just charismatic on his own but his resemblance to BIG puts it over the top.
No such thing
I was on the bus in Brooklyn 17 years ago with a dude that looked exactly like big, my dude where are you ?
@@MrSliverguy c’mon you can’t front yeah he does and guerrilla black did too
He will FOREVER BE BIG
It's crazy how most times these days when I think of big. This guy pops in my head first amd then I'm like wait hold on lol
I know Big is proud Jamal did that.
Can't believe the Notorious movie is almost 13 years old!
For real, I remember waiting for that Jawn to drop
The way we feel about Chadwick Boseman the only one that could play the black panther .
Is how I feel about Gravy playing Big.
And that’s real 💯
Dats facts bro he really is the only one synonymous with big ✊✊🏻✊🏽✊🏼✊🏾✊🏿
As a good an actor as Chadwick Bozeman was, there are plenty actors who can play Black Panther.
Biggie Smalls
Guerilla Black could've played BIG
@@AR-ii3ly nahhhhhhhhh!
The best candidate to play BIG and he is nice on the 🎤 too
And Natori Rocked it as well!!! Y’all did great 👍🏽 along with Derrick playing Puff!!! Tanic playing faith and of course Angela Basset the goat 🐐 playing Ms. Wallace!!! I loved it Folk!!!
Never knew who he was before ‘Notorious’ but this guy is a really solid dude! Great actor and I'm sure he makes good music too.
He was a dope rapper himself
I can sell you some ak bullets for half a man
“Never knew who he was before notorious” lol funny
I think the notorious movie was pretty good they covered most of the important stuff of his career. Pac was so legendary and did so much in a short time they crammed so much in that's what made his movie bad. R.I.P. to both the legends
That’s what i keep telling people PAC was so legendary that it would be impossible to make a movie showable in theaters that’s covers his whole career
@@BonesDMS4life Thats an excuse the movie trash and it's not ageing well the best scene of the movie is when maino shot him
@@tronman32 the movie is definitely trash and i just gave u the reason why
He looked like 2pac but didn’t wasn’t as hyper energy as Tupac.
@@bkit5 can’t duplicate pac’s energy they spent too much time trying to make him out to be a thug . Didn’t put enough emphasis on his acting career
Love him in both Notorious, & All eyez on me!😊
Jamal Did a great job as Biggie I hope is own personal Rap career goes well like Biggies career did.
Great Person And Actor As Well Real Genuine 💯
You did your thing PlayBoy
You know you did As Well
Keep The Focus On
The Focus
Skipped all these other interviews because you got all the backups interviewing…thanks God for Biggie Jr!
The "backups" interviews are might actually better.
@@justbored5222 no they’re not
Keep grinding sir!!! You deserve more in my opinion!!! God Bless you Gangster!!!
Watched notorious so many times I can’t even watch it no more💯💯🙏🏾great job playing big look and all
Gravy said in effect nobody else can play Biggie. But the Biggie in the Netflix series, Unsolved was amazing in my opinion.
They should have has him and Demetrius Shepard
"Everything was amazing"
-gravy
I like when Vlad lets the people talk
That Biggie movie one of the best autobiographies. Facts
I am from the West Coast and I think thus was better than All eyes on me movie.
I'm from LA and yeah Notorious was definitely better than All Eyez On Me. Tupac Resurrection was way better than All Eyez On Me.
Tupac had all guyz on him in any movie
@@marchveris all tupac documentaries and movies are cheesy disney flicks
@@2pacisgay955 Is that you Jussie Smollett?
A T-Bone steak, cheese eggs and Welch's grape.
Conversate for a few cuz in a few we gon do what we came to do ain't that right boo
True
Gravy and Maino was the best parts of All Eyez on Me
Biggie is the dude SOUP from the rap group jurassic 5 wake up ppl
S/o Gravy he be killin them Amazon and Tubi movies 🔥
I loved when I found out he was gunna play Biggie
Dude in unsolved did a good job.
That show is a fabricated lie
Gravy a class act
Big fan of Gravy since 05
seeing him as biggie on 2pac's movie was very surreal. add the fact that 2pac's actor looked JUST LIKE him
You did a great job man.i felt thay Big swag
Benny better release that footage💯
@ 3:58 .... Again, Vlad doesn't do his homework before the interview.
You can’t go wrong pickin a street cat to portray a street cat. Boy killed it 🔥💯
I'm waiting for dude to say something negative about somebody...anybody. Don't look like it's gonna happen...that's refreshing!
I remember seeing his video on the Come-Up DVD! Vol. 13! it was a song he did with Akon and also the same Vol. Lil Wayne discovered Nicki.
Never dawned on me it was the same dude playing Biggie!
Vlad needs to interview Angela Basset
I knew All eyez on me was gonna be trash when they hired a music video director to direct the movie
It was amazin
That 730 movie was fire too...some hood shit
Dope Actor
How much love ❤️ did you get inside . I love this guy his energy is of the ⛓
I had the notorious movie the first day it came out in theaters on a bootleg DVD from a Korean store in my hood and the picture resolution was 1080p quality very perfect picture I still have it.

He has a few movies on Tubi
Gravy - When I was in high school I failed in algebra but bet I kno the numbers on a 45 caliber 🔥 Dirty Money!
Solid movie 🎬
“I thought it was amazing” 8:01 😭😭😭😭😭😭
CAPPP
He was happy for the opportunity. 😆

Not true.

Tupac deserved a better movie, because that wasn’t it. They didn’t even include his real wife Keisha Morris Shakur in it.
Tupac would've been disappointed.
At least Papa Doc from 8mile didn't play him.
I would've smashed my screen

Looks like half a Big! Congrats on your health brother.
I actually enjoyed notorious biopic alot
Luv wen gravy played in 730 movie
Gravy’s answer to every question? 🤔 “It was AMAZING”.
Notorious movie = good movie
All Eyez On Me = bad movie (dry, bullet point, Wikipedia version of Tupac’s life. No character development)
Vlad always talking like he knows everything
They was tripping about 2Pac 😂 😂
All Eyez on Me was a good film. I think that harsh feedback is largely parroted. Having grown up during the time, it was a good effort. The major drawbacks were lack of money - the set was not great - and not exploring Pac as rich as some would have liked yet the movie was just fine.

Man sumbody drop the link for that hat he got on that shit 🔥
Homie used to be out in Greensboro nc shout out hoodlocker I met him a couple times rn
Watching him talk I can see why they picked him for the role
My dawg
Even though he did a great job. The guy who played biggie on unsolved did well for what it was. And he looked more like biggie
Gravy was the next big thing out NYC
Jamal was great in Notorious but in All Eyez On Me it just seemed like he was thrown in there and wasn't interested in being in the movie
2009 big movie comes out 8 year's later 2017 2pac movie comes out ,2pac movie came out on the 20th anniversary of big death
He'd play a good AR-AB biopic
He looks pretty young honestly. I’m surprised to find how he was a 70’s baby. I thought he was a mid 80’s baby.

I would love to see this guy get more roles that aren’t B.I.G. He has chops, but he only gets to be one character.
He was in barbershop right
he got a pretty few roles on tubi tv a movie app. I see his face on alot of them
He did good in a not so good movie!!!
Ooh my boy getting chicken looking different
The movie was just good work period !
If we’re gonna be honest “Notorious” was great when it came out. But it didn’t age well especially compared to “Straight Outta Compton”
I actually still enjoy it, I didn’t fw Anthony Mackie being Tupac but other than that. I love the movie
@@junior224433 Anthony Mackie kissed a dude in the show Black Mirrors (S5E1), think he had sex with him too but it was virtual

Bruh notorious came out 2009 big era difference compared to straight out of compton coming out 2015 lol
Benny Boom come to the table lol
I shouldve played BIG but its all Gravy - Beanie Sigel
