It's a phenomenal film," Tip said of the flick, in which he also plays a nephew of the movie's lead, Denzel Washington. "It's one of the most prolific black gangster pictures ever to hit the screen. Tremendous amount of acting. Everybody's going hard. It's like when a hip-hop fan hears a song like [Khaled's] 'We Takin' Over' and you hear all your favorites and you hear them at their best. That's what 'American Gangster' is like for film. Cuba Gooding Jr., Common, RZA, Russell Crowe, Idris Elba. Everybody is doing their thing, everybody is going hard." Needless to say, the King of the South was pleased to be a part of the cast. He enjoyed working with "pops." "We had a lot of monologue," he said about his screen time with Common. "They got him fixed up with a beard and gray hair. We were just happy to be able to portray our characters in this story. It wasn't about him playing my dad or me playing his son, it was about being a part of this movie and going the extra mile." the full story goes more into detail about other movies T.I. has coming up. here's the link: http://www.mtv.com/movies/news/articles/1567412/20070817/story.jhtml Quote Report

I was gettin' frustrated about exactly what role Common had in the movie, 'cuz there wasn't a lotta information on his part - I read the EW.com article posted in the News section the other day, and it seems Common's role is playing T.I.'s father! For some reason, that made me laugh. If you read the article, apparently it made Common laugh, too. Just a lil' extra (maybe even useless) information for ya.
