BABY BOY is the powerful urban drama directed BY
JOHN SINGLETON (SHAFT, BOYZ N THE HOOD) and starring rap music superstars
TYRESE GIBSON and
SNOOP DOGG (from HALF BAKED, I GOT THE HOOK UP). With knockout performances from
VING RHAMES (from MISSION IMPOSSIBLE 2, PULP FICTION, CON AIR) and A.J. JOHNSON (from FRIDAY, HOUSE PARTY, THE PLAYERS CLUB), BABY BOY is a tough, honest and unflinching look at modern urban life.
Jody (GIBSON) is a 20-year-old African American in South Central L.A. who is trying to live large but doesn't have a job. He's got two babies by two different women and still lives at home with his mother (JOHNSON). Growing up is tough on Jody, but a series of events involving his mother's new boyfriend Melvin (RHAMES), his girlfriend Yvette (TARAJI P. HENSON) and her ex-con, ex-boyfriend Rodney (
SNOOP DOGG) forces him to learn some hard lessons about living, loving and surviving as a man in the hood.
