This week's special guest @TonyBakercomedy
Paid in Full is a 2002 American crime drama film directed by Charles Stone III. The characters Ace (Wood Harris), Mitch (Mekhi Phifer), and Rico (Cam'ron), are fictionally based on the 1980s Harlem drug dealers Azie "AZ" Faison, Rich Porter, and Alpo Martinez. The title of the film is borrowed from the 1987 album and song by Eric B. & Rakim.
In the late 1980s, Ace (Wood Harris) is a young man employed by a Harlem dry cleaning shop, working hard to stay out of the drug business. While making deliveries, he meets Lulu (Esai Morales), a drug dealer who convinces Ace to join him. Ace recruits his friends Mitch (Mekhi Phifer) and Rico (Cam'ron), and the trio become major players in the Harlem drug underworld, a violent business that will test the friends' loyalty and wits as the money rolls in and the dangers grow beyond their control.BlackBusters is a podcast focused on reviewing, celebrating, re-living and critiquing Black film. From the movies we all know and love to those hidden gems, there is no movie too big or small to be praised or roasted.
Join our hosts Director/Comedian/Actor @biggjah and movie/podcast connoisseur Tony Price as they explore the legacy, impact and influence of Black cinema.

Tony Baker an big jahh in one room debating movies 🗣️ I'm here for this one !
This
I’ve been waiting for this team up since the first episode. You hit it on the head.
Debating Paid n Full makes it even that more classic 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Tony baker definitely gotta be a regular guest. His insight on films are amazing.
No, not a guest permanently 😂this was amazing just like you said. We the watchers need this forever.
3 bald black man.... So much shine in this episode🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
I was thinking the same thing
You won
When jah started this show, the first person I thought of was Tony Baker because this is up his alley so glad he made it to the show.
“Get you some soup, a thermometer or sumn. You’ll be aight!” Favorite quote
"If I walk away from the game, are they still gone love me man?" - Money Mitch
So Deep!
Mitch gotta be the MVP!!
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾hell yeah!
Jay's's song Allure that Mitch line was a summary of that song 🎶 High off the life and Addicted to the game
Wood Harris is versatile and I believe underrated. I been seeing him in believable roles starting with the gangsta in Above the Rim, a football player in Remember the Titans, drug kingpin in the Wire, a lawyer in some other small time film, Gooch in Next Day Air and some more projects. Dude is a beast. (Bokeem Woodbine is another underrated actor too)
Yoooo brother you said it that man is the truth REAL RANGE
Also the cop in BladeRunner 2049
I stumbled upon this episode because I follow Bigg Jah and Tony Baker. This was such a great conversation and it would be really cool to see Tony on more episodes. Peace to all parties involved!
He'll definitely be back!
NORE needed to be there. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 That scene was everything b
Ernest Dickerson got his inspiration for juice off of the real paid in full story. He grew up in that neighborhood at that time. Bishop is Rico ( alpo ). He talked about it on a documentary.
Tony Baker KNOWS movies 🍞🍞🍞
Mitch was living in a room with his brother in that scene cuz that was his high school years…he went to jail in ‘84 and he was only 18/19 and that’s midway in the movie…also in the movie, Mitch had ppl selling for him(Remember the part he pulled up to collect money and dude said he was robbed and he told him he can’t sell unless he find that man)
Exactly. He was a kid
Love listening to black men who share my passion for the arts. ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
I was waiting for a Tony Baker episode!
Can't Wait and it's about Paid In Full!!
Seen Tony in the thumbnail and said "lemme get in on this"
Cam'ron straight up killed his debut role. He deserves an Oscar.
I feel like this was just for me lol I'm legit happy lol. I been asking for Paid In Full since day one. So surprise more people haven't reacted to it. You guys are the best. Tony needs to be the permanent guest.
I think one of the reasons why mitch was sharing a bedroom with his brother because the real life characters were really young like 16 17. But the real ace (AZ) said they were off with the film
This is the comment I was looking for. You are correct. They where definitely teenagers when they where getting money. Honestly in the 80's crack era. A lot of young dudes was getting money.
Great point
I think mitch stayed in the room with his mother was to protect his mother from her brother
Very True , 2pac was not known as a rapper in 1992 when juice was released. Crazy we don’t think about that now
2002 Hood movies classic filmed in 2000.
Rico to Ace “Niccas get shot everyday B, you tough right ”
Joey Badass as Rico...he killing his role on Raising Kanan
Joey to smooth ya digg he might have to go as Mitch
the thing about paid in full that led to alot of the mishaps is the people don't realize that Azie, Mitch and Rico were teenagers. their inexperience played to their demise
James St Patrick, Franklin Saint, Avon, and Marlo would be in the final 4 of the Dealer/Kingpin tournament
Eh, I would think Nino Brown would have a place in that category….That’s just my opinion though.😂
My favorite over actor in this was an extra. When Mitch pulls up after he gets out and everybody goes over to greet him, one of the guys in the crowd does a little jig on the way over and it cracks me UP! 😂😂
Me and my Cuzo do that jig every time we see each other with something new and we both 50🤣🤣🤣
Tony definitely needs to be a regular on this show!🙏🏿
The best podcast in the 🌎 “straight up in down”.
In the world Craig
I simply love this podcast. Havin in-depth discussions on movies is my absolute favorite thing to do!
Top panel great breakdown n review hope to see more
This was an excellent take on a classic with valid points. Some stuff Tony & Big Jah pointed out I never noticed in the movie. Makes me wanna go back and watch for the subtle nuances.
I’m here all day for this conversation. Every molecule!
Rich porter wasn't old enough to get an apartment the real ppl were on teens which is crazy but I love the flick
😂😂😂Damn i wanted to tell them this, the characters are grown but rich porter was 15/16 years old
@@jdottjdott7517 lol my bad G
Rich Porter died when he was 20 something. He could have gotten an apartment
@@haydotzero3372 I’m saying though if you buy cars underhand you for sure could’ve had somebody put a spot in their name for you
@@sircharles9166 They all had their own apartments in real life. The movie just does not do a good job of retelling the story. AZ actually hates the movie.
Man love these conversations man. Exactly the same way we talk in the shop! Y’all gotta do Belly soon!
This was easily my favorite episode!
Saw Tony & Jahh and clicked IMMEDIATELY 😂😂💯💯
I don’t feel like it was a hard switch for Pac. Notice that he looked up to the man going out in a blaze of glory, and how he was frustrated running from everyone. He was even willing to rob with Blizzard. It was always in him, the gun just gave him the power he always wanted. Even in his speech, he said, “He ain’t shit” also demonstrated his power by saying, “As soon I decide you ain’t shit, POW.”
you took the words right out of my mouth bruh.
juice was a horror movie
I liked before watching because Tony n big jahh 💕💕
This is the first episode I’ve watched of the show. I love the conversation. How they always brought it back to “Paid In Full”. Amazing episode. When they started talking about The Wire I was all in 💕💕
Keep ‘em coming, big dawg!
this was a good review & tony was a good guest host !
shoutout to jah always figuring out this youtube game he gonna be teaching others how to do this soon !!! this pod works aint even watched it fully yet but you can tell its simple and worth the listen due to the topics and the branding with the old school block buster colours nice work !!!!
This was good... Truly enjoyed y'all🔥👍🏾
Loving the show!!!!.... Please bring Tony back!!!!
Please bring Tony back and discuss American gangster that will be dope!!!
Yessss
Absolutely !
Mitch actually did have a team. They found the guy that robbed them and Mitch shot him which sent him to jail. Unfortunately they weren't the BEST team which was more to Tone's point, but he did have a team
This is right up Tony’s alley….
I always wonder how Beanie Seigel would've performed as Rico!
This has to be the most Intriguing podcast I’ve ever seen
✊🏾 ✊🏾 ✊🏾 ✊🏾 ✊🏾 classic!
Love these reviews. Tony B is a great addition on this episode.
Paid in Full is def underrated, missed a good theater release. Wood Harris is a hood movie/ series legend between this and The Wire. Killed on Remember the Titans too.
Went to the RUclips channel. Saw the movies that were covered. Subscribed immediately! Let’s get it!
I think Bishop was always crazy and violent. After his first kill, he was scared, but liked the power of killing some one. He just snapped. Felt like he could do whatever he wanted to.
This was good, y'all! 💯
Deadass one of my top podcasts b. 💯
Lakeith as ace...Joey badass as mitch....Chris brown as rico
Joey Badass or Asap Rocky would make a good Rico
ASAP Ferg
Yall might as well review The Wire.
Review it by the season
Been waiting on this one
Tony has to do Dead presidents
Bobby Schmurder as Rico
Subscribed. #blackbusters
Man I found the perfect Chanel!!✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
This was a dope ass episode 💪🏾
Paid in Full is a classic
This was so perfect
I'm from NY and that was a hilarious intro!! Stay up fellas
Fire episode Paid in Full Classic
Great show !!!! Love paid in fall ..
These episodes are poppin👌🏾
The scene where Rico punched my man in the car and made him strip wasn’t written in the script. Cam really punched him in the face and busted his nose.
Melvin Gregg who was Manboy in Snowfall could play Rico fasho!
In real life Azie, Rich and Alpo had multiple houses and stash spots, and both azie and rich got screwed over by family members or people close to the family, thats why they didnt see it coming
That cat was running like that because Cam really socked that man lol
THIS IS THE DREAM TEAM OF HOOD MOVIE CLASSIC TRIVIA CONVERSATIONS 🙌🏽 👌 👏 ❤️
This was PHENOMENAL!
Tony and big jah y’all got something here with the movie convos
Yeah, this the one I was waiting for, lol. The best movie and guest
Quite impressed by Tony Baker's movie knowledge
New Jack City from Nino point of view would be a hard ass movie for real
Blackbusters was the name of my barber's bootleg DVD hustle back in the day😆😆😆😆😆
I see Tony the Baker, I'm pullin up
😂🙌 "You tough right?!"
The dude that got hit from Rico got hit for real by Camron. 😂
Facts B!!!!
Same dude that got beat by Beanie Siegal in Paper Soldiers?
first ep i've seen n i'm a new fan fasho!!
LL Cool J as God in In Too Deep needs to be a part of this conversation. A$AP Rocky as the recasted Rico
I can see Rocky as Ace. I would go A$AP Ferg or Casanova 2X as Mitch and/or Rico
@@chevyfeen86 casanova would make a great Rico… if he can act lol
When Crack hit the scene , Franklin from Snowfall ( voice) it was him , her , him her , Bodies , Bodies , Bodies lmao 🤣
Money Making Mitch top 20 black movie character of all time
Ray Charles can see you shining 🕶️
Benny The Butcher: “… pull up like Ace in the beamer. But first you gotta relate to that Ace in the cleaners”
Tony gotta be a regular guest his insight is needed
Love tony baker comedy
He wasn’t over acting Cam really punched him. Watch the Wood Harris interview on the breakfast club and he talks about that scene
Paid in Full was definitely 5 Black Fists
Great Eps. !!!
"YOU GOT A POCKET FULL OF MONEY!!"
Melvin Williams passed in 2015

New Jack City was “Hollywood “ Paid in Full was more Authentic in Look & Sound.
