felt what I felt about this film was uh the black male relationship a lot of times when we when we talk about black men we're either absent from our families well when other people talk about us they want to show us absent that we don't care about our kids and that type of thing but this piece really made me um I I felt it in in that way because it was uh specific to that black male relationship can you speak to that a little bit um yeah I think uh I don't know man I feel a way about dead beat dads I was raised by one um but now that I know what I know let me hold that now that I know what I know to be honest with you um you had to get older to really understand this but there's a lot of d be Mas out here too um are there more single mothers out here raising kids on their own multiple kids on their own yes doing what they got to do to survive and stay afloat and protect protect theirs yes that's why Mother's Day will always be a much bigger holiday than Father's Day I don't care how much we want that that day to matter you know we got restaurants sold out 6 months in advance leading up to Mother's Day and Father's Day they have us sitting there playing dominoes at HomeTown Buffet um but at the end of the day there is no such thing as creating a child without a mother and a father getting together and making a decision whether the relationship or marriage or situation work out or not and I think um the other thing that I'm proud of is that the the the concept of Daddy's little girl did not come from a little boy daddy's little girl is a concept that came from all of the girls who love love love their fathers they don't call it uh uh Mommy's little girl daddy's little girl oh my God I love my daddy I was daddy's little girl I mean my dad had me wrapped around his little F and vice versa that concept is such a beautiful beautiful concept and it almost doesn't make sense that daddy's little girl is still in the same breath as dead be dad uh but it is and so um I know I got two daughters and I know how much they love me and I know in my house as much as I travel as much as I'm gone as much as I'm on tours and movie sets I have never you know if if somebody were to ask me of all the things that you've achieved what is your most successful achievement I'm gonna tell you mine personally um whatever is in my bank account don't matter square footage of my house don't matter how many cars what kind of cars don't matter it may matter to you because most of y'all you dream and you say man I would be successful if I had a rollsroyce well I've had a few rolls-royces and I always say I hope that you love the person in the rollsroyce not because I'm in the Rolls-Royce uh totally different perspective respect the man in the car don't respect me because I drive the car uh because that means you have no respect for me at all and so in my house my 5-year-old daughter and my 17-year-old daughter they have never called me Tyrese they don't even refer to me as Tyrese when they're talking to their friends they say my dad or my father Dad yeah no that was my father my father my my father just called me I need to call my dad back when a Miss call come in I'm dad and I'm their father irregardless of how they Mama's feel about me I'm their father that is one of my biggest achievement ever in life why because I don't call my father father I don't call my dad dad dad I call him Tyrone I call him pops everything else but Dad because Dad is not seman dad is presence and having a presence in your child or children's lives I love my babies so that's why 1992 means as much as it does to me because although I don't have a son everything about that son component in this movie really really speaks to where I am as a father and just wanting to insert my presence my Alpha my energy my protective instincts in and around my son in this movie and and to see that dynamic in the film and also to see the same Dynamic with Scott Eastwood you know and Ray Leota and and the presence that they had um you know so it it was beautiful man it's it's a it's a as much as you think this movie is about Riot and looting and people out here stealing some free uh because of what happened with the vertical Rodney King you know that is the back back back story this is a heist they breaking into a warehouse getting $50 million worth of platinum bars this thing is a crime Thriller you going to be on the edge of your seat this is actually I watched it the other day in the theater in New York and man I was up in the move I was up in the theater scared like oh I I I've seen this before but I forgot about that part you know cuz it's very different to watch it at home versus in a theater full of people you know [Music]
