This week on Views From The 7, the crew gets into a mix of real conversations and classic debates. We start with weddings vs funerals—what people are really spending on and what actually holds value. Then we talk about generational wealth and what it looks like in real life, not just on paper. We take it back to the culture with Boyz N The Hood vs Menace II Society—which one really told the story best? The music convo gets interesting with Tyrese vs Tank, and we wrap it up with a conversation about urban Las Vegas stereotypes—what's true, what's exaggerated, and what people get completely wrong. Just real opinions, different perspectives, and a conversation you can jump into.
Zo went on a journey to one of the most dangerous neighborhoods of the 1990's - the South Central Los Angeles Crenshaw district. Though Zo wouldn't say that the place where he grew up was exactly safe, Crenshaw would make his hometown look like Mr. Roger's Neighborhood. Police helicopters seemed to be whirring above constantly. The sounds of police and ambulance sirens where stubbornly persistent. In this place the friends who Zo came to visit must find a way to survive: a young man bound for college, an aspiring professional football player, and a young man who just got out of prison whose highest aspiration is to see the next day and avoid of incarceration. Zo wonders if they will be able to achieve their goals or will they be eaten by the streets. These are the questions, trials and tribulations faced by the Boyz n the Hood.

Actor Morris Chestnut joined the show to reflect on his remarkable career journey, beginning with his breakthrough role in the iconic 1991 film "Boyz n the Hood." Chestnut shared how that film launched his career and continues to impact audiences decades later, recounting a touching moment when a co-star on "Rosewood" watched the movie for the first time and was so emotionally moved by his character's death scene that she remained affected throughout the entire workday. The enduring resonance of the film, which authentically portrayed life in certain neighborhoods during that era, stands as a testament to its cultural significance and Chestnut's powerful performance. This first major break, which came after he had done a television adaptation of "A Night on the Town" that earned him his SAG card, set the foundation for a successful career spanning over three decades.Currently starring in the second season of Fox TV's "Rosewood," Chestnut plays a private pathologist who cleverly bends—but doesn't break—the rules to solve crimes and achieve justice. Working alongside the talented Lorraine Toussaint, whom he praised effusively as an amazing actress who elevates every scene, Chestnut described how his character has evolved over the show's 22-episode seasons. Initially prone to breaking rules and sticking out "like a sore thumb" at crime scenes, Rosewood has learned to blend more seamlessly with the police department while maintaining his characteristically optimistic view of people. However, recent storylines have challenged that optimism, particularly an episode where a woman he believed loved him actually robbed him, forcing his character to develop a more nuanced perspective on trust and human nature. Chestnut emphasized the importance of social media in modern entertainment, noting how he actively engages with fans across Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter, recognizing that direct interaction has become an essential part of an actor's career in today's digital landscape.
Icon, legend, Academy Award winning actress Regina King joins Kelly! Regina spills on THAT iconic Watch What Happens Live episode with Jackée Harry, how her late son inspired her latest venture, and if she feels his presence. She reflects on her most memorable roles (227, Boyz N The Hood, Poetic Justice, Jerry Maguire), making the transition from child actor to film actor with the vision of John Singleton, and what winning her first Oscar felt like.
Get access to this entire episode as well as all of our premium episodes and bonus content by becoming a Hit Factory Patron for just $5/month.We went exceptionally long on the late John Singleton's undersung period western Rosewood, a film (and filmmaker) whose fingerprints are all over Ryan Coogler's recent box office sensation, Sinners. Rosewood tells the story of an independent Black township in Florida and the barbaric racial violence it faced in 1923, incited by a white woman's false accusation of assault and the Klan-assisted mob that followed. It's believed that over 100 Black citizens were murdered during the attacks, though the true number has never been properly counted.Despite the brutality, the legacy of Rosewood was forgotten—suppressed for nearly 60 years by both those who endured it and those who carried out the violence—until investigators uncovered the truth. That reckoning ultimately led to a 1994 vote in the Florida State Legislature to pay reparations to the survivors and their descendants.In Singleton's hands, the story of Rosewood becomes a rich, downtempo historical epic of properly grave tone; a film that never shies away from the violent realities of Black life in America's south in the early 20th century, the racial animus stoked by class anxieties and lingering slavery era resentments, and the complicity of white audiences and their ancestors in carrying out the violence that shaped our country's past and present.We discuss Singleton's inimitable capacity to juggle the rhythms of mainstream studio moviemaking with the formal radicalism of a Black story told with limited equivocation and compromise, as well as how blockbuster moviemaking primes us for absolution rather than honest reckoning. Then, we explore the rich character work within the film, how Singleton utlizies the embellishments of genre and archetype to root Blackness in a cinematic history linked conspicuously to white supremacy, and the refreshing stroke of having "no good white guys" in the movie. Finally, we relate the film to Coogler's latest, where it achieves a similar filmic mastery as well as where we feel it falls short of Singleton's vision.Read The Rosewood Massacre at Esquire MagazineWatch The 1983 Rosewood Massacre segment from 60 MinutesRead Robert Daniels on Sinners at Roger Ebert....Our theme song is "Mirror" by Chris Fish.

This 1993 classic blends romance and drama, following Justice (Jackson), a grieving poet, and Lucky (Tupac), a mail carrier with dreams beyond the streets, as they embark on a life-changing road trip from Los Angeles to Oakland. Alongside them are the fiery Iesha (Regina King, Watchmen, If Beale Street Could Talk) and her troubled boyfriend Chicago (Joe Torry, Tales from the Hood), whose turbulent relationship adds layers of tension.

Come see us at MULTICON!! https://www.multihouse.io/multicon Continuing on our journey for Black History Month, Greg Alba and Coy Jandreau take on the timeless classic Boyz N The Hood, a groundbreaking 1991 film directed by John Singleton. This powerful coming-of-age story follows Tre Styles (Cuba Gooding Jr., Jerry Maguire) as he grows up in South Central Los Angeles, guided by the wisdom of his father, Furious Styles (Laurence Fishburne, The Matrix), and navigating the struggles of friendship with Doughboy (Ice Cube, Friday) and Ricky (Morris Chestnut, The Best Man). With impactful performances from Angela Bassett (Black Panther) as Reva Devereaux, Nia Long (The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air) as Brandi, and Regina King (Watchmen) as Shalika, the film captures themes of family, systemic racism, and personal growth. Greg and Coy react to the film's most iconic scenes, including the unforgettable "Ricky!" moment, Furious's moving speech on gentrification, and the emotional conclusion that left audiences worldwide in awe. They also dive into some of the most memorable quotes like "Either they don't know, don't show, or don't care about what's going on in the hood" and "You gotta think, young brother, about your future."

I'm another year older and to celebrate, I went back home to Ohio to visit family and friends and of course, got them on the microphone. It's a stacked line up this week, PJ is here, Anita is here, Chris is here, Cameron is here, Tiffany is here and for the first time ever, my dad is here! We had all been drinking, a lot and because of the subject matter of the film and all of us being Black, we got into some "spirited" debates...See what I did there? We had been drinking, so it's "spirited?" Anyway, Chris and Anita had never seen Boyz N The Hood before so kick back and enjoy this uncut, almost 4-hour episode and take part in the festivities along with us. We hope you enjoy the show!

Cube and Marc talk about how his two successful careers took shape and how he's now branching out into a third with his sports league Big3. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
