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 II, 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 America in South Central L.A. who is trying to live large but doesn't have a jpob. 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) force him to learn some hard lessons about living, loving and surviving as a man in the hood.
