Baby Boy is the powerful drama directed by John Singleton
(Shaft,

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 and her ex-con ex-boyfriend
Rodney (Snoop Dog) force him to learn some hard lessons about living, loving and surviving as a man in the hood.
