We’re kicking off a brand-new segment on the show: BK’s Blacklist — where BK (our Gen-Z, suburban-raised co-host) takes on the classic Black films he somehow missed, and TeaRon (who grew up on all of them) guides him through a multigenerational deep dive into the movies that shaped Black culture. Together, they break down the nostalgia, the legacy, and the big question: do these classics still hold up today?

For the first installment, we’re revisiting one of the most iconic bank-heist films of all time — Set It Off, starring legends Queen Latifah, Jada Pinkett Smith, Vivica A. Fox, and Kimberly Elise, directed by the incomparable F. Gary Gray. From unforgettable lines to culture-shifting moments, this film still sparks conversation decades later.

TeaRon and BK unpack the performances, the impact, the emotional punches, and the scenes that still stick with us — all while debating BK’s final rating.
 When did you first see Set It Off? And does it still hold up?
