What's New, Jack?
THIS MONTH ON HvO -- Harlem's Heroes switch up the program to watch some classic Black movies that one of them hasn't seen (hint: it's Justin). And they kick things off with Mario Van Peebles' 1991 debut, 'New Jack City'. While recapping the plot, your dedicated co-hosts discuss the themes of the film, what it has to say about addiction and crime, and whether its message is still a viable one nearly 30 years later.
FEAT. Justin putting on a spotty Australian accent to shout out our brand new cover art by the lovely Shalini Jasinge, all the way from Sydney! Find more of her work here!
'New Jack City' is a 1991 crime-drama directed by Mario Van Peebles starring Wesley Snipes, Allen Payne, Ice T, Judd Nelson, Chris Rock, Michael Michele, Vanessa Williams, Bill Nunn, and Mario Van Peebles.
