Washington is now 67 years old, and I’m certainly hoping he won’t be retiring from the big screen anytime soon. Though it’s always nice to know that his acting legacy will carry on thanks to his talented son, John David Washington, who has been making his own name for himself over the years! Well, this scene is definitely memorable to me because I remember hearing it for the first time and thinking, “No you don’t, Stevie, you really don’t!” T.I. has never slowed down with his music career, though, and in 2020, he released his 11th studio album entitled The L.I.B.R.A. That said, in 2021, T.I. announced he will be releasing his final album called Kill the King, which is currently in the works, and this came alongside personal allegations against him and his wife for sexual assault from former acquaintance Sabrina Peterson. Fun fact: Director Ridley Scott recently came out to share the story of how Idris genuinely believed he had been shot during the filming of the movie. Ridley explained how he asked Idris to lean against the gun when it was aimed at his head, because it was a solid barrel gun with no aperture. Idris followed the instructions, and when the trigger was pulled, it went bang, and Idris dropped to the sidewalk and said, “I’ve been shot.” Poor guy must have had a shock! Idris has also been performing DJ sets at festivals over the years, as well as featuring on some British rap songs (shoutout to Wiley’s “Boasty”). It’s no surprise then that his love for music has led him to reveal this year that he’s planning on leaning away from acting to focus more on music in the future. On the music front, RZA is still releasing records, having put the 2015 Wu-Tang Clan album Once Upon a Time in Shaolin up for auction, and releasing Bobby Digital and the Pit of Snakes under his solo pseudonym. Prior to this, Cuba saw great success from his portrayal as O.J. Simpson in American Crime Story. Now at 50 years old, Common has continued to take on acting roles, as well as the continued creation of his music. Common played the rival assassin Cassian in John Wick: Chapter 2, and in 2018, he formed the part jazz part hip-hop supergroup August Greene.
