Enjoyed this! First time watching a Taylor Rooks interview and I was impressed. She is such a beautiful black young lady and carries herself with poise. This interview made me appreciate Micheal B Jordan in a different way!
If Mike has that type of love for his nephew imagine the love he will have for his own child/kids one day. Such a good man. ❤😍
He cooks, enjoys ironing, plays video games, good with children, loves and provides for his family, still friends with the guys he grew up with, he’s respectful, funny, talented and intentional about what he is doing with his stardom. Michael you are a dream come true. 🤍✨

it shows in Michael B. Jordan's eyes how true he is and how wonderful of a heart he has 🌹🤗😇
A fantastic interview. Taylor asks thoughtful and smart questions. Thoroughly enjoyed.
Taylor is not celebrated enough she is Greatness!!
I believe this interview captured fully the mental space that M.B.J was in at this time in his life. It looked like Taylor created a space and environment for reflection which he might not always get to have or express in an interview setting.👏🏾
GREAT interview!!! I so respect him after hearing this!! Seems like a really great, compassionate and genuine person!
Taylor Rooks is a great interviewer.

Michael B. “You Know” Jordan
I really enjoyed this interview because I can relate so much. One thing that he said was that sometimes being alone is best. Learning how you are talking to yourself and being in sync with your body is so important. I've watched so many movies of Michael B Jordan. I always wanted to know how he is as a person. Thank for this interview. Thank you Michael B Jordan for being a huge inspiration in my life.

Top Tier interview. Feels authentic instead of the Hollywood, same ol same ol
What an interview! Loved all the things I learned on this. You have a new fan Taylor Rooks!

@@willt8848 a lot of unrepentant villains get spin offs because they’re story is still intriguing. You obviously didn’t pay attention because he did have love for his people. He was willing to arm and protect over a billion black people in Africa and in the diaspora. His vision probably came from his father’s participation with the black panther party. And he was somewhat right, Wakanda sat back and watched black ppl suffer for centuries. Unfortunately his father’s death tainted his overall attitude of wakanda. Killmonger has A LOT of layers that were barely explored in black panther. You don’t become that scorned over night.
Fruitvale station was a great movie.

-she was spreading false history on the items and they were stolen from his ancestors. -he trusts no one -they lied to him and killed his father in cold blood and kept him from the rest of the family -he was taking out the hurt since childhood on the family that caused it -once again expressing the pain he’s been bottling up -The black people of America who had been oppressed and put down and stripped of opportunities by the man was who he was sending weapons to. He dropped signs or literal dialogue that explained why he did what he did. Was all of it right? No. But the reasoning makes him more an antagonist than a villain. For example: The line at the end of the film when he reflects on his ancestors being thrown overboard into the ocean. He never got answers and his hurt and confusion turned into extreme anger.

Michael didn't mention Rocky as top 5 sports film. I'm shocked and surprised, because I really thought he would consider the movie better than Any Given Sunday (lol) or even as a PR move he would have Rocky in there. Good list, nonetheless
