His role as franky Lymon in why do fools fall in love is NOT talked about enough ! Pure excellence.
🖤 Killed like it, like all the other roles he played.
Frankie Lymon
@@RoyaltyLove-zs9tb yea my bad
@@RoyaltyLove-zs9tb I really don’t know how I wrote Smokie lol 😂
Big Facts
8 times? I must have seen Love Jones 300 times easily. I've owned that thing on VHS, DVD, and digital. Classic sh*t. Classic.
Yes, one of my all time favs!
Lol..me too!!!!
I said the same thing!!!
I was young so love jones was my introduction to Lauren hill’s music outside of sister act 2 because of that song at the end of the VHS tape
I even memorized a blues for nina
The friendship between these two is genuine. They really do come across like brothers
🖤🖤
Yep! This is one of the best interviews ever...!!! 👍🏽 👍🏽 👍🏽
"The Ink Well" was right after "Menace..." and made me see Larenz as a true actor. He was careful not to let Hollywood box him into typecast roles. It was a brilliant career move.
🙌
that’s my movie
Love me some Larenz Tate! Since 1990! From the boyz video, the royal family w/Redd Foxx. Seen Love Jones 1000x. He hasn’t aged. Something about us ppl born in the 70’s.
How many of y’all remember Larenz doing his thing in the show South Central? #Longevity
👏
Yup
one of my favorite shows! and allegedly the precursor to Moesha. was hoping they'd talk about it.
@@judithj446 That’s what’s up
@@hbdhbd6611 Yea I heard that too. If so, I could see it.
These two Black gentlemen are the "epitome" of the modern husband, friend, lover, fathers are supposed to be. Black does not crack! Larenz looks 30 (he's Vegan, no wonder). Takes good care of himself. Great conversation. Thanks guys.
I love seeing the friendship between you two! Larenz is a phenomenal actor that has been in iconic movies...keep up the good work. Gen X actors are the best!!🥰😍🙂😘
🖤
Chicago’s very own.
Till this day the ending of
“Dead Presidents” makes me cry. Hands down, one of my favorite movies. The soundtrack is absolutely phenomenal!🔥🔥🔥
I can’t even leave “Love Jones” out; one of my favorite movies.💜🙏🏽💜
Bill was such a hater in that movie.😂
Yes that Dead Presidents sticks to my soul. That courtroom scene was epic and I think about it all the time
Larenz can't be touched. All his acting in different movies seems to come from the heart. The Dead Presidents soundtrack was it, still is! You look great LT. Keep going!❤❤❤
I love the brotherhood between y'all
🖤
Salute to Bill and Larenz for an excellent interview!!! Icons!!!!
Gratitude.
Ps Love Jones is a Classic Movie and Soundtrack. That Lauryn Hill song is my ish. Dead Presidents and The Inkwell are massive classics too.
Man I appreciate this podcast/show so much #LEGENDS 💯
🖤🖤

Herbie Hancock.

Don Cornelius.
Donny Hathaway.
Common.
Jennifer Hudson.
Michelle Obama.

So many greats from Chicago...
My Favorite Actor Besides Denzel Washington.. From Menace To Society To Love Jones Frankie Lymon And Dead Presidents
That was beautiful. 90’s Golden era for sure. My parents had the 70’s I’ll forever cherish the art created in the 90’s. 🔥🔥👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Talk about Inkwell more…he did a great job with that role too
Love, love, love both of these Kings! To me, they've always been authentic, set great examples for young men, and just seem like great individuals all around.
🖤
Mannnnnn I love these two !
Their friendship and brotherhood is how we should be supporting one another!
Continued Blessings 🤎🤎🤎
The Inkwell is a certified classic🔥🔥
@Breakbeat Media, I am one of those people who has watched Love Jones so much that I know the lines. I appreciate you all and love the interview.
I loved Lorenz from day one!!! Brilliant on so many levels! I actually visited filming locations from Love Jones when I was in Chicago! 20 years later it’s still one of my favorite love stories!❤
Best interview love him his roles are always diverse and full of passion thanks Bill❤❤❤❤❤
🖤
Him and Vin Diesel Killed their roles on “A Man Apart”! Still one of my favorite movies
One of my faves too 💪🏾
Good conversation amongst Brothas. I feel the genuine love.
🖤
HOW MAGNIFICENT WAS IT TO SEE 2 AWESOME BROTHERS WHO APPEAR TO BE HONORABLY SUPPORTIVE n AWESOME HUSBANDS n FATHERS‼️✝️💯😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
🖤
Larenz Tate ...as someone that lives with Sickle Cell Anemia...let me thank you for all that you do for the National Sickle Cell Anemia Foundation.... you are much appreciated.
Great stories and decades of genuine friendship! Great interview
LOVING THIS PODCAST AND INTERVIEW!!!! 2 OF MY FAVORITE PEOPLE IN THE BUSINESS!!! I'M SO HAPPY TO FIND OUT THEY HAVE BEEN GOOD FRIENDS FOR YEARS!!!! BILL BELLAMY HAS ALWAYS BEEN BEEN EXTREMELY FUNNY TO ME. I LOVE HIS STAND UP COMEDY!!! I'VE BEEN A FAN OF HIS FROM THE BEGINNING OF HIS CAREER!!! WHEN HE USED TO DO THE SCHOOL HOUSE ROCK ROUTINE!!!! THE SAME FOR LARENZ. I'VE BEEN A FAN OF HIS FROM THE VERY BEGINNING!!! HE'S AN OUTSTANDING, AWESOME, EXTREMELY TALENTED, GREAT ACTOR!!!!👍👏👏🔥🔥🎉🎉🎉🎉🏆🏆⭐️⭐️⭐️❤️🤍❤️🤍❤️🤍❤️🙂
🖤

This was so much fun to watch. Bravo to you both 💕
🖤
Great interview!! Two friends talking!!
"Yo" love the brotherhood, please keep the energy in our community we appreciate you both.
My Brutha, I love Counsilman Tate. You are a great actor, Larenz and so handsome❤❤❤❤
Dueces is a GREAT movie! Larenz Tate still got it! 🙏🏿👍🏿
Amazing interview especially with an icon like Larenz Tate. Dead Presidents is one of my favorite films and the range that Larenz portrayed was top notch Oscar quality! That film was one of the reasons why I wanted to become an actor. Thank you Mr.Tate and you’re definitely our black Leo DiCaprio 😎👍🏾🙌🏾
These brothas have not aged
You got that right.
Talk about soundtracks, the Love Jones soundtrack is mos def FIRE
I watched this all the way through! My Chicagoan brother Mr. Tate! 😂 ima youngster compared to you Legends!! Mr. Bellamy… another great episode! Felt like I was there with y’all some of them stories. Also me & your brother share the same name Julius haha.
🖤
I love y’all!🎁
Larenz, I appreciate you in the podcast series about Bronzeville with Laurence Fishburne. It was so good! You are a diverse actor that embodies whatever role you play!🎁
Bill bellamy is genuine. What u see is what u get. He is just as crazy and nice in person 😂
Larenz Tate is so good looking. Whew that smile and the dimples! He’s a great actor, too. “Twice as less” math is not his strong suit 😆
I thought Inkwell was his first film because he was so different than Menace and Dead President! Inkwell is my FAVORITE movie.
Bringin that heat once again. Bill gotta let his guest talk though lol. He was hype this time 😂😂
I love him even more because my hands stay ashy for the exact same reason ❤!!!!
Love these brothers!Truly inspirational. Keep on doing your thing gents!!!
This man went from Odog to Drew … like I honestly couldn’t believe that was the same person
2 mins in, and they already mention an MAD IMPORTANT fact about dead prez. That soundtrack son?? PHENOMENAL!!
Definitely one of my favorite movies
This not even a podcast. This just two homies kicking it LOL
Love this interview. So many layers. Love Jones, Dead Presidents and The F. L. Story, I can watch over and over--actually, I have. Also, appreciate the passion around community service. Larenz asked what happened to those thriving Black communities--that were also in other cities including the south like Black Wall Street???? It's called INTEGRATION.
Segregation forced Blacks to do what some other communities still do, and that's support and patronage those who look like you. Our doctors were Black, our teachers, the bus station owners, the Negros baseball leagues, everything was Black-owned with Black support. Our wealth was disbursed at integration, and the neighborhoods and jobs disappeared, and eventually replaced with crime.
Keep up the good work fellas!
We dont talk about the house or the mansion, but never the foundation!! Larenz Tate is part of the foundation of my childhood. When you crave attention they celebrate it, but staying humble only gets tolerated!!!!!😢😅😂😂😊
Dope interview though. He need more flowers 💐 🎉❤
It’s so funny how they rag each other because they really know each other
Bill, Your show is soo FIRE and sooo necessary!!! I love and appreciate the honesty and sincerity of ALL of your interviews. I love this interview with Larenz. I learned so much about him as a person, a Black man, friend, husband and father!! So proud of both of you!!
Much respect to the brothers, Peace from Paterson, NJ
This is one of the best interviews ever...!!! 👍🏽 👍🏽 👍🏽
The way I screamed when he started reciting A Blues for Nina🤤🤤🤤🤤
I know they had a blast filming Love Jones. Incredible story and such a beautiful cast
I remember Larenz back in ‘86 in an episode of Hunter as Sporty James’ nephew.
The Inkwell 🎬 #Underrated #CultClassic
homie shoulda at least been nominated for 1 of them big awards
he’s a multi omar winner 4 best actor in the culture
Drip Drip...omg Bill you are crazy! 😅 but I ain't gonna lie Brotha To The Night still to this day is all that❤❤❤❤❤
Um! So what you tryna say, Bill Bellamy!?! I am a woman with a degree in biology who works in healthcare. In 7th grade when I saw the video slowed down of a toilet being flushed, and in HS (early 90s) when we did the door knob/water faucet swap...I was done!!! I am self diagnosed, lightweight OCD and I wash my hands multiple times a day. I also have a small bottle of lotion for my hands and a small container of Vaseline for my lips in multiple places. LOL
Awesome interview! Y'all had me cracking up 😂😂 gotta love yall both 2 legends in the game! And Larenz is mt forever fine man in my head!😂😂💯💯🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love love love Larenz Tate! Smiled the whole time watching this interview😁 So good!
Really LOVE with the interviewer and the interviewee REALLY know one another!
Amazing interview and of course the Darius poem at the end❤
This is my first time watching and Bill has found his lane. He is great at this!!! Love it!!!
I did not watch Menace to Society until 2001. I could not bring myself to see Larenz in that roll when it came out.
LT’s role as Black Sean on Rescue Me is one of my favorites 💯💯
It would be great for Lorenz and Daniel Sunjata to talk being they’re both from Chicago.
also great dads are the very best God bless you both and your loved ones.
