Didn't he play in that movie... "Annapolis?" Acting is not his strong suit...but all you need is one role. Anyone that was a Jamie Foxx fan from his days on 'In Living Color', The Jamie Foxx Show...and people that saw him in the movie Booty Call...would probably have a hard time believing that he was capable of the performances he gave in "Ray" and "Dreamgirls" Transitioning to movies is hard for rappers/singers...the only one's that I can think of that have been good at it are Will Smith & the late great Tupac Shakur
:idea: From what I've seen & all things considered, alot of them seem to do okay. Better than folks give them credit for.
couple points... one.. Mr T wasn't exactly a top-notch actor (honestly, how oscar-worthy is a guy who's first name consists of a Letter, preceeded by Mister) two.. the role of "B.A. Barakus," isn't exactly one likely to be in the running for Best Supporting Actor Three.. Reference the previous points.. accept the fact that, for this role, Black Ty is a winner
