Such an amazing interview!
Enjoyed this! First time watching a Taylor Rooks interview and I was impressed. She is such a beautiful black young lady and carries herself with poise. This interview made me appreciate Micheal B Jordan in a different way!
If Mike has that type of love for his nephew imagine the love he will have for his own child/kids one day. Such a good man. ❤😍
Taylor is not celebrated enough she is Greatness!!
A fantastic interview. Taylor asks thoughtful and smart questions. Thoroughly enjoyed.
Taylor Rooks fine as hell
I agree man
Strongly agree.
Fr only clicked for her
she looks good but she might not have a good personality
@@JS96919 nah she seems very down to earth. It’s nice to get that from people nowadays
I know when her gf’s found out she was interviewing Michael b they was like “byyyyytch!” 😂
He cooks, enjoys ironing, plays video games, good with children, loves and provides for his family, still friends with the guys he grew up with, he’s respectful, funny, talented and intentional about what he is doing with his stardom. Michael you are a dream come true. 🤍✨
You are so right!! Dreamy!! 😍
@@DesiLu4Life 🤍✨
Lmao these type of dudes get dropped all the time.
I'd know. So would he.
Of course you wouldn't. Mm
every woman’s dream!😍
@@jacquelineeaves631 indeed 🤍✨
I saw how MBJ kept calling Killmonger Erik kind of humanized him. He might have learn that in therapy.
He needs to get that out of his spirit for good. Being an actor seems psychologically and spiritually stressful. They all need to take breaks and therapy to shed that skin.
Michael B. “You Know” Jordan
Taylor Rooks is a great interviewer.
and fine af
MBJ: He wasn't a villain!
*poisons museum manager for being white*
MBJ: He wasn't a villain!
*shoots girlfriend in the face without hesitation*
MBJ: He wasn't a villain!
*kills Wakanda's religious leader*
MBJ: He wasn't a villain!
*burns the garden of the heart-shaped herb to the ground so he can be the only Black Panther*
MBJ: He wasn't a villain!
*slits the throat of a Dora Malaje WHILE SMILING*
MBJ: He wasn't a villain!
*enacts plan to send high tech weapons to black gangsters and African warlords*
-she was spreading false history on the items and they were stolen from his ancestors.
-he trusts no one
-they lied to him and killed his father in cold blood and kept him from the rest of the family
-he was taking out the hurt since childhood on the family that caused it
-once again expressing the pain he’s been bottling up
-The black people of America who had been oppressed and put down and stripped of opportunities by the man was who he was sending weapons to.
He dropped signs or literal dialogue that explained why he did what he did. Was all of it right? No. But the reasoning makes him more an antagonist than a villain.
For example: The line at the end of the film when he reflects on his ancestors being thrown overboard into the ocean.
He never got answers and his hurt and confusion turned into extreme anger.
“Congrats to Everyone who is early and found this comment”
Thank u
@@xsportscommentaryx60 Do you think Michael B Jordan will return in Black Panther 2 and take the throne
"I'm always ready" tell him Taylor! She always gives the best interview questions!
Taylor went full psychoanalysis with this interview. Taylor was like: whats your favorites sports films ? Michael: Umm mighty duc . TAYLOR: HAVE YOU EVER FELT LIKE A BEE DROWNING IN HONEY?!? WHATS YOUR GREATEST FEEAR ???
it shows in Michael B. Jordan's eyes how true he is and how wonderful of a heart he has 🌹🤗😇
Top Tier interview. Feels authentic instead of the Hollywood, same ol same ol
Michael B. Jordan picking White Men Can't Jump as #1 makes him my hero
Asking someone their favorite five sports movies off the top of their head is ridiculous. I could write a damn thesis on the list, easily...
Exactly. And TOP 5 no less
you gotta take it with a grain of salt. it makes the conversation interesting but we're not judging his life choices based on his answers.
@@k.h.a.l.i.l. Ooooooh! So I'm not supposed to base my complete opinion of him based on his answers? Oh, well, that changes everything!!! Thanks! 😀
@@owenparker6651 that was hyperbole obviously 🙄 point is, it's not "ridiculous" if you're not holding him to it and see it as just a convo starter. calm down, little o.
Cheering for you Taylor. So affirming to see the passion for your craft and the way you honor the humanity of those you are in conversation with. So impressed
I believe this interview captured fully the mental space that M.B.J was in at this time in his life. It looked like Taylor created a space and environment for reflection which he might not always get to have or express in an interview setting.👏🏾
REPENT OF ALL YOUR SINS TO ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST
I wanna have two beautiful children with Taylor Rooks
GREAT interview!!! I so respect him after hearing this!! Seems like a really great, compassionate and genuine person!
You can’t unlist Remember the Titans 😔
I really enjoyed this interview because I can relate so much. One thing that he said was that sometimes being alone is best. Learning how you are talking to yourself and being in sync with your body is so important. I've watched so many movies of Michael B Jordan. I always wanted to know how he is as a person. Thank for this interview. Thank you Michael B Jordan for being a huge inspiration in my life.
Taylor is amazing at what she does.
Taylor Rooks Interviews are always FIRE!
I cried when I was the only black person in my class I was so uncomfortable and everyone in that class was biased so imagine how that went.
That feeling is the worst 🥺
@@celinek9686 literally 🥺
@Win From Within if you one of those I don’t see color folks this not the comment section for you.
If everyone you meet is an asshole......well.....
@@meatpuppet5036 I never said that ? Are you delusional…. Listen if you don’t understand why I said what I said just move along
What an interview! Loved all the things I learned on this. You have a new fan Taylor Rooks!
I could look at him the whole day🥺
And not even blink🥺😳🤤🤤
Taylor always doing good interviews!! and shes beautiful to too it off
He gone be a great dad!❤️I can tell he likes kids
The man was in Creed and didn't say Rocky in his top 5??? smdhhh
So what! It’s his top five !!
MBJ is such a beautiful man. No homo
Top five sports movies for me: Gridiron Gang, Above The Rim, Coach Carter, Never Back Down, Enter The Dragon.
Lol enter the dragon is not a sports movie
I can’t even lie she is dope asf at these interviews🙏🏽🙏🏽May God continue to bless everything you do and touch
That's a dope ass shirt 👕 he got on
The 1’s clean asf too
We need more black interviews this black history month more black men and black women all black people should attend black colleges more black doctors
This man is apart of the Rocky franchise and didn’t even list it in his top 5 sports movies
I see what you’re saying but I mean it’s like Lion King franchise making a movie called son of mufasa. They’re related but it’s like step brothers or cousins fr.
Take a shot everytime he says you know 😂
We need Kilmonger as the new Black Panther he looks awesome in that suit and it would only be right I pray Marvel gives him another chance🔥🔥🔥🙏🖤🐐💯
Marvel definitely failed to capitalize on kilmonger. It’s possible they could double back and make a side movie. But marvel dropped the ball. There is so much more to do with that character a whole other universe.
@@QFromFlorida they should’ve started killmonger as his own series.
@@QFromFlorida They didn't drop the ball. He was an unrepentant villain who killed his own people and choked black women but that's who you want as king/Black Panther. Smh
@@willt8848 I’m sure you hard a hard time in school. Find where I said I wanted him as my king. You are a special type of person.
@@willt8848 a lot of unrepentant villains get spin offs because they’re story is still intriguing. You obviously didn’t pay attention because he did have love for his people. He was willing to arm and protect over a billion black people in Africa and in the diaspora. His vision probably came from his father’s participation with the black panther party. And he was somewhat right, Wakanda sat back and watched black ppl suffer for centuries. Unfortunately his father’s death tainted his overall attitude of wakanda. Killmonger has A LOT of layers that were barely explored in black panther. You don’t become that scorned over night.
Taylor rooks ain't a rook
remember the titans is the best sports movie of all time imo :/
On God she is the truth
How did he not choose “love n basketball”
Because Love & Basketball is corny as hell
@@zephaniahmcdaniels so are most sports films. there's only so many ways you can tell "we sucked but had potential and through hard work, we won the championship" or "i was on top, fell and ppl counted me out. now im back" stories. i think it was a refreshing departure from recycled storylines
Unpopular opinion: killmonger changed his life tbh
*Creed
That’s not good
How you forget Glory Road & Friday Night Lights
Shout out to Gwinnett County!
Michael “that’s a good question” Jordan
Haha
1. Friday Night Lights 2. Coach Carter 3. Rocky IV 4. Any Given Sunday 5. Field Of Dreams
Such a beautiful interview!!!!
Been a fan of this guy since the Wire.
coming here from interview on Pivot podcast .....she is so good at her job and as equally beautiful BLACK WOMAN .... many blessings to this queen and look forward to her growth and career
this is such a special, unique interview with genuinely insightful questions and responses. thank you taylor rooks and michael b. jordan.
Micheal is the guy to show up to his best friends baby shower and not tell no one it is interesting taylor is good at asking questions!
Taylor Beautiful self would probably look so good without makeup n in the natural
She does.
This nigga 🥸 definitely gotta play Steve Harvey in the biopic
Aye chilll 😂
Pshhh not after the break up
Ok after that Killmonger comment I'm gone.
This was such an amazing interview! Great job, Taylor! A lot of insight was shared in this video.👌🏾
That B in his name makes me forget that he literally has the same name as the G.O.A.T.
Folks don’t shout out Fresno often. Nice when it happens.
This feel like theperi then interview
He missed Above the Rim
Mark my words y’all I’m gonna be in creed 3. Watch!! Already In the works
Taylor Brooks is such a great interviewer
And she's fine too.
All my homies love taylor rooks
You can tell this is Michael and not Killmonger. 😂 This nigga put Remember the Titans at #4, then took it out completely for He Got Game. NIGGA‼️
He forgot “Friday night lights” smh 🤦🏽♂️
Taylor is bad asl
I forgot this guy was Wallace on The Wire!!!! Maaaaan. 🤯
I like that shirt he’s wearing. I need that shirt!
MBJ I pray God bless you and your family financially, physically,mentally emotionally and spiritually. I pray God send my love to you everyday. I want you to know that I love you and your not alone in life.
This was amazing to watch great interview
It almost sounded like a therapy session jajaja Good Interview 😁
Newark NJ. Produce number one Soul Singer of All and they Salute Her, Ms. Linda Jones!
Taylor & Michael B Jordan shld hookup they wld be a beautiful black couple & I like to see black love!!
Michael didn't mention Rocky as top 5 sports film. I'm shocked and surprised, because I really thought he would consider the movie better than Any Given Sunday (lol) or even as a PR move he would have Rocky in there. Good list, nonetheless
He was just put on the spot to be honest…
Any Given Sunday is incredible. Oliver Stone, Pacino, and Jamie Foxx all did their thing
@@alfonsogayman9699 i like it too. Just don’t it’s better than Rocky
I remember the first time i WASN't the only black person in the room. It was the most liberating and exiting experience of my life.
MY 1ST TIME WATCHING EEEEEVVVVVVVEEEEEEEERRRRR! I'M NOT A SPORTS JUNKIE.....TODAY I'M SUBSCRIBING BC GREAT QUESTIONS AND GREAT ANSWERS! I'M SO IMPRESSED BY HOW INTIMATE THIS DIVE WENT!
Fruitvale station was a great movie.
Ey Yo!! Where's Wallace!?
Amazing interview! Fangirling over Taylor
*Rocky...isn't on his top 5 sports movies list ? Jesus talk about the oversight of the century*
Or … he has different tastes …
That would be a cop out since he’s literally apart of that franchise
I think in his mind he puts it under boxing movies so when she said sport movies...he may be thought of football, basketball... Just saying...it's a possibility
Taylor you were so elinquitley and precisely spoken and engaging
Wow what a great interview 👏 🙌🏽 👌🏽!
This only at 1k?
YAY! Can’t wait to see Micheal B Jordan! *sees it’s Taylor Rooks*
Fuck that! 🥱
What's wrong with Taylor Rooks?
Taylor is easily one of the best interviewers in the game right now. This is the first time I've seen someone not like her.
@@therealjayz8036 just wanna hate just cause
Naw GOD did good on this man 😂
Need that Creed III ASAP!!!!
How do you get started in acting ?
Can someone please tell me what is the watch Michael B. is wearing?
You got $80k ?
So boxing and karate don't count as sports when listing sports films?
Boxing yes karate no
God definitely has favourites
how so?
k h a l i l Lol have you seen Taylor Rooks?
@@brandonWilliams-yr4re lol point taken, sir. point taken.
Isn't boxing a sport and didn't mention Tocky
He's just amazing AND humble !!
Did she dress down for him? You really can't tell how much of a baddie she is dressed like that lol
Coach Carter & The Blindside are both better sports movies than all 5 he said lol.
Nah he don’t sleep wit a lot of women , you could never forget about he got game , he got game how to be a player and any given Sunday , my lifestyle
I agree antagonist yes , villain no .
