Great interview with brother Hopkins. Lean on me was a probably one of the best movies of the 80s. Newark in the house my home state N.J. and neighboring city. I got to say the 80s and 90s were the best decades of that era. I wish I could go back and relive that experience again. To all that watch this video and those who put the video together, may God bless you and your families Shalom.

Thank you for your great role in a fantastic movie

Standout performance in his first role. Never forget Joe Clark telling him to jump of the roof if all he wanted to do was ruin his life. But lets not forgot the classic...JUICE!!

U can tell he's getting older becuz he's starting to develop that older man laugh at 1:09.

Dupree from the wayan's brothers.

And for those that don't know, RIFF was the other guys singing with him in the bathroom. They were a real R&B group.

Grossly underrated actor. His presence on Lean on Me and Juice should have elevated him to another level. Jermaine is clearly an Alpha Male who would not submit to Hollyweid.

Favourite film of all time

I use to watch Benson reguarly. My family only watched it becuz of Robert Gulliame. I remember him being funny and sarcastic on it.

It’s great that you had such great chemistry with your cast mates; not everyone is as lucky (Vlad plays Tekashi 69’s baby mother reading his plea deal).

Just a question, he has "expeditiously" written on his shirt. Was that from when Mr. Clark growled Sams and told him that using crack will kill you expeditiously? I didn't think one word would be brought back so profoundly.
