Baby Boy is a drama going back to the ghetto roots of Boyz n the Hood, the first film from this picture's director John Singleton (Higher Learning, Poetic Justice, Shaft) who after getting away from the genre, saw fit to finally return to it. Jody (rapper Tyrese Gibson in a startling and impressive acting debut) still lives at home with his smoking hot younger mother Juanita (A.J. Johnson) but has plenty of adult responsibilities he's alternately attending to and neglecting, including his children from two separate mothers, such as his beloved Yvette (Taraji P. Henson, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button). In addition to these conflicts, his mother gets a new live-in boyfriend, hulking, tattooed ex-con Melvin (Ving Rhames, Pulp Fiction, The People Under the Stairs) who Jody has less than warm feelings for; his mother wants him out of the house, and Yvette's incarcerated ex-boy friend Rodney (Snoop Dogg) enters Yvette's life again, making it hard for Jody to assert himself.moreless
