A rare Chicago flick. Reelblack coming through with another gem. Salli Richardson's first film role and she _still_ looks like a dime. This movie screams 1990. A young R. Kelly with Public Announcement before he appeared on _Big Break_ and won the $100,000 cash prize. And Jordan was getting ready to soar to even greater heights with the Bulls. R. Kelly's story became quite a sad one: all that talent and records sold after that didn't mean a goddam thing. I love love love Ms. Marla Gibbs. The TV grandma/auntie in my head turning 90 on my dad's birthday. Long live Ms. Gibbs.

I wonder if Sallie Richardson would look like a dime if she was darkskin. 🤔
YOU mean A young R. Kelly with MGM before he appeared on Big Break and won the $100,000 cash prize.
@@BigMob05 Right. Thanks for the correction.
Actually it's not Public Announcement that wasn't the group's name in 90, 91 that's back when they used to go by MGM before they got sued by the casino for the use of that name. If I remember correctly after they won that old television show Big Break hosted by Natalie Cole and after their first single I think it was "why you want to play me" went platinum or something that's when the MGM Grand filed their lawsuit against the record company and the group which force them to change their name to Public Announcement.
@@GangstaMojo You're Right and Wrong. MGM and Public Announcement are TWO different groups. The FIRST Album "Born Into The 90's" was recorded with MGM, NEVER Public Announcement. REMEMBER when Robert met Public Announcement in the Bathroom of some place, maybe a club, THAT FIRST album was already COMPLETED.
Thank you Reel Black for bringing positivity to our community 🙏.
Truly A Lost Gem By My Man Ron O'Neal As Well As Marla Gibbs Doing Her Thing! ThankYou ReelBlack⭐⭐⭐⭐
@7774 in my opinion marla gibbs and the actress who played ron's wife were extremely poor choices. there was no real chemistry between ron and either of them. he should have tried to get sheila frazier again. denise nicols, pam grier or even diana ross would have been good choices.
I love that they all were Chicago natives love this old movie and I’m only 30 from Detroit 😍🥰🔥✊🏾 #blacklives
Omg.. this was filmed in Chicago. I’ve been looking for this film forever. Thank you for uploading ❤️
hey neighbor 👋🏾

Oh wow, I’ve been looking for this movie for 26 years. Thank you for uploading it
This is a Black dial timepiece. Rest in Peace Ron O'neal!
I'm from Evanston by way of the neighboring Chicago area and remember this in the year of 1997. I was 6 when I saw this as a child. Thanks Mike for this great upload. Big ups to yman.
I live in Evanston too!
I'm very sorry you were from lame Evanston, not H-F ! 😎
this came out in 91 and was shot in 89-90. I was an extra in a few of the scenes.
This is now my favorite RUclips channel.... I used to have the VHS tape of this film and I haven't seen this movie sense 1999 early 2000.
Been on your channel since the weekend. Ive been having a ball binging and feeling these old good vibes frm when I was a child/ teenager. Thanks again REEL
Never heard of this film before .
This was a great film we dont see movies like this anymore I wish I could go back in the 90s. Love & respect was honoured. I still hold on on it. But I see its lost in 2021.
Yes yes yes finally I have been waiting for someone to upload this movie when they were filming this my mom and her cousin were in a scene in the bar but they cut it out .
OMG!!!!!!!
They used to show us this movie in grade school!!
FYI, that’s R.Kelly and Public Announcement singing the theme song.
Girrrrrrllllllll!!!!!!!! Where did you find this???? I've been searching for this for YEARS!!! Only found 1 minute clips!!! I thought you did it with "What About Your Friends", but you did it with this ONE! A TRUE GEM YOU FOUND! 😲
Another good Ron O'Neal movie. Thank you for putting this on your yt channel.
Reelblack has dropped another gem💎💎💎🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’m ashamed to say back in middle school me and my buddies couldn’t get past the theme song without cracking up.
Compared to pop R&B today it's sheer excellence.
Thank you for bringing all these classic Black movies. These movies are amazing and are even better than most of the movies you see today. Can you get the movie "There are No Children Here". It's a movie based on a book by the same name. It was on TV in the 90's.
Brings back memories. This was a good movie. I got the pleasure of watching this movie on movie night in youth program I was involved in when I was a kid.
Another beautiful movie, I love it! Thanks for the upload I enjoy watching them all the way from South Africa ✨
THANKKKKK YOU SO MUCH 🙏🏾🥺🥰

Shout out to chicago, from Detroit. Sill a dope movie 💯 #LEGENDARY
Such a powerful movie, I tell ya there's just not movies like this Classic right here! Big Stoney Jackson remember Big Foreman at Tate. You dated Val, his sister. Thats my dad Vince Foreman😎😁
Mannnnnnn The Slow R&B Jamz In This Movie Are Da Bomb, Damn I Wish They Had A Original Motion Picture Soundtrack To This Movie....Real Talk!!!!
Awe, this was a good movie. I can see Dr. Kunjufu's teachings and messages in the movie.
They don't make movies like this anymore, it has a message and a conscious rap song in the beginning... Where's our Black positivity?
Great movie🙂 I discovered the title while I was reading Black Economics. I'm very pleased about the important messages expressed to our Black youth❤🖤💚
REELBLACK, GREATLY APPRECIATE THE UPHOLD! I SEEN THIS ON VHS 📼.
Stoney in them Jeans!😁
Reelblack help me alot. I'm welsh, violent English father still causing as much trouble as ever. All the English colonies have the same problem.
i have never seen or heard of this movie before.
Whatchayall know about a young Robert Kelly singing in the opening and closing songs though? 😁
Public announcement days 💯
@@7-mileshmoke947 With MGM back then.
@@7-mileshmoke947 MGM not Public Announcement
@@CleanMusicLover229 i didn't know about MGM. They must been dope as hell when he was in that group
Perform by r Kelly and mentally gifted men
When reelblack going start streaming service I'm tire of 50 and Mary Tyler Perry Bet Bounce
They Should've Put R. Kelly And MGM In The Movie Da First Place
👐🏽 Thank you for sharing this insightful movie based on realism. Personally remember being bused to an all white high school for 9 & 10th grade until losing first my Father, killed in VN and then my Mother 19 months later, her death still a mystery to date. My Sister and myself became orphans and per my Father's will all military had to have wills. My Mother's will was never found, though my GodMother continually stressed at the time that my Mother had a will, she even swore on her Mother's grave that there was one. We were relocated to Philadelphia to stay with two of my Father's sisters. Unfortunately my younger Sister and myself were separated and never lived together again as children.
During my 9th &10th grade years there were race riots practically everyday during school hours. Practically all of them were between "Negro or Black" and "White or Caucasian" Male Students. Other titles were used instead of Negro an Español term, among them Black, Afro American, then Jesse Jackson introduced the term African American that has lasted to the present time!😳
Its ALL ABOUT 19nigga1. The year.i graduated high school. I have NEVER heard of this. Thanks.
It wasn't exactly Boyz N the Hood quality
A rare gem👍🏿👊🏿
This movie had a good cast. I'm sure if the roles were reveresed in real life, J.R. would've left Sean stretched out on the field. I use to have a crush on Stoney Jackson when I was a teenager ❤ Other than the ill-fitted music that played in the background, the movie was pretty good.
Throwback 4real

Beautiful- "Hannibal" ruler of Carthage was a black man. This movie dropped alot of gems. Even highlighting during the time of Julius Caesar how all of North Africa was lish greenland.
Where can I find the song at @50:50 ???
RON O NEAL
Really great soundtrack.
35:36 Harold Washington flick on the end table AYE!
was this movie ever in the movie theaters? or was it straight to video movie?
It had a short theatrical release but didn't do that great. It wasn't exactly Boyz N Da Hood...
I saw it at a theater in summer 91 with all my friends who were extras in the movie.
BRAVO XOXO
Sallie Richardson, the baddest BYTCH EVER.
RIP Ron
I like him with that nice haircut
Ms Gibbs fantastic actress!
Very cool 😎
Between his drug dealing brother and lil miss hot in the pants. One of em is gonna be Shawn's downfall.
I really like the movie up against the wall. Alsome.

Good God Damn the amount of racism in the beginning scene. I get Chicago can be segregated by north and southsides but I'd not think that racism would be so prevelent that the mere presence of an African American/Black transfer student would set off comments like that. Especially when there is already other AA/B students there, as well as a Latino who seems to correct the others in use of non-racist terms.
This is trending because homewood flossmoor state title
What is that song that's playing when he walks her home
SHOWWWWW
Free R. Kelly😢😢😢😢😢
R kelly up against the wall!! Who knew!!
