Belly ft. Nore Davis

This week, we're joined in the studio by Nore Davis to discuss Belly, the 1998 release starring Nas and DMX and often referred to as "the black Goodfellas". We talk about the film's poor critical reception, the way it speaks about Africa, the experience of first seeing it in theaters, and the portrayal of white children vs. black children in film.
