Poetic Justice (1993), a John Singleton masterpiece, brought together a powerhouse cast to create one of the most iconic films of the 1990s. The film starred Janet Jackson, who made her big-screen debut as Justice, a poetic hairstylist grieving the loss of her boyfriend. Her chemistry with Tupac Shakur (2Pac), who played Lucky, a postal worker with dreams of a better life, was electric. The dynamic duo brought Singleton’s nuanced script to life, blending tender moments with raw emotion, set against the backdrop of South Central Los Angeles. • Regina King added another layer of brilliance as Iesha, Justice's sharp-witted and spirited best friend, delivering a performance that was equal parts comedic and heartfelt. King’s portrayal solidified her as a rising star destined for greatness. • At the helm, Singleton, fresh off the success of Boyz n the Hood, used Poetic Justice to weave a heartfelt story about love, loss, and healing within the Black community. His direction combined stunning visuals, a compelling narrative, and an unforgettable soundtrack, including original poetry written by the legendary Maya Angelou. • The film’s production was as memorable as its story. Jackson and Shakur, two cultural icons from different worlds, found a unique connection on set, sparking both on-screen magic and behind-the-scenes buzz. Singleton’s vision and ability to nurture authentic performances allowed the cast to shine while addressing complex themes of grief, resilience, and self-discovery. • Join us as we dive into the making of Poetic Justice, exploring how John Singleton, Janet Jackson, Tupac Shakur, and Regina King came together to create a cinematic gem that continues to inspire and resonate. • Business Inquires and Sponsorships: [email protected] • TIMESTAMPS • 0:00 Intro • 01:09 John Singleton's Beginnings • 02:56 Boyz N The Hood • 04:38 Spike Lee/Oscars • 06:12 Controversy surrounding Boyz N The Hood • 09:16 Janet Jackson • 10:21 Janet's early years • 13:02 Control • 14:02 Rhythm Nation • 16:10 Janet's 1991 • 18:41 Introducing Regina King • 19:48 Meet Tupac Shakur • 21:47 Juice • 25:55 Remember The Time • 26:35 Casting • 30:18 Janet's mission • 33:00 The Plot • 34:33 America's Most Dangerous Rapper • 37:46 Looking at Janet • 41:30 Maya Angelou • 43:06 Regina's worries • 43:47 It's a wrap • 44:47 Janet and Tupac's issues • 45:58 The test • 49:17 A New Janet • 50:28 Regina's goals • 51:07 Tupac's story • 53:05 John's legacy • 53:38 Higher Learning/Tupac and John Issues • 54:30 Impact • DISCLAIMER: All materials in these videos are used for entertainment and educational purposes and fall within the guidelines of fair use.
