One of the best known
things about this movie was how Janet
Jackson did not get along with Tupac, she
refused to even kiss him unless he got
tested for AIDS. Later 2pac said he
wishes he could patch things up with
Janet, and that he was just immature when
they made the movie. Pretty good
movie, Tupc had to play a softer
character in this one. One of pop's
reigning superstars makes her film debut
in this street-smart love story from Boyz
N The Hood director John Singleton.
Jackson shines as Justice, an inner city
poet on a romantic collision course with
aspiring musician Shakur. An unforgetta
ble drama featuring the music of Naughty
By Nature and Tony! Toni! Tone! and the
poetry of Maya Angelou.
