Personally I found Cutty as the most despicable. He didn't have enough sceentime to compete with some of these others though.

Man, In Too Deep was a bad movie, but LL character was bad as a mother fucker. Without a doubt he took control of that movie with this scene here. Great fucking post and the dialogue and let's do it again between Kansas City Mac and Biggie Smalls was fantastically written and performed. again, great post
 
no way this doesn't come down between nino brown/o-dog...I give it to o-dog tho...nino brown as well as some of the others don't really qualify as 'hoodlums' imo

O-dog is my choice after Cam'Ron

But o dog ran from police and hid behind cars n shit to get bit by a dog

Killa shooting Feds my guy
 
its $30. Am i missing something here?

When it first dropped it was more I believe. ..
I think now it's more like 50?

My point was it was more money than others at the time.

AND that was considered expensive for whatever their target audience was.

now all he needs to be is a critically acclaimed actor:rolleyes2::rolleyes2::rolleyes2::rolleyes2:
 
Don Cheadle is suffering from the lack of people who saw Devil or read Walter Mosley's books. Mouse was one of the most memorable characters in a mystery novel series and Cheadle brought him to life with humor and darkness.
 
JW as Peeples!! he made you believe he existed and was not just an actor playing a role. It's all in the subtle details. the way he spoke, the cadence of his speech, the reactions even the kiss to Vanessa Williams dismissing her. they should have made a movie based on his character alone.

classic line: "Puto why you flinch"
