Oz and Curtis are putting on their best denim, practicing their poetry, and trying to heal the wounds of the past to break down the visually stunning and emotionally heavy Romantic Drama: Jason's Lyric!

In the heart of Houston, Jason Alexander (Allen Payne) is a hardworking man haunted by a childhood tragedy involving his father. While he spends his life playing "his brother's keeper" to the volatile and traumatized Joshua (Bokeem Woodbine), his world is transformed when he meets Lyric (Jada Pinkett Smith). Their intense, lyrical romance offers Jason a chance at a new life, but the pull of family loyalty and street violence threatens to burn their "heaven" to the ground.

We break down the film’s unique impact: the palpable, legendary chemistry between Allen Payne and Jada Pinkett Smith, Bokeem Woodbine’s terrifyingly good breakout performance, the film’s use of dreamlike cinematography, and a 90s Soundtrack that defined an era. Is Jason's Lyric the most poetic film of 90s Black Cinema and a definitive Cult Classic, or just a movie that proves you can’t save everyone, no matter how much you love them? Tune in for our full Jason's Lyric 1994 movie review!

If you’re into analyzing character-driven tragedies, appreciating films that blend grit with high romance, or listening to two dudes who would definitely not survive a confrontation at the bus station, this episode is for you.
