quite enjoying trying to remember similar stuff from the two films… sticking body parts out of moving cars, mentioning ‘black excellence’- his dad telling him he has to better than other people (assume he means because he’s black) and slim say black people feel the need to be excellent not mediocre, music chat. preferred q + s for that even if it didn’t really make sense in terms of time- they’re riffing on Vandross eras, love jones D’Angelo, they’re as young as that and they have mobiles? didn’t mind though because they didn’t seem to aim for realism. think it’s maybe unfair to compare them on the same basis, because they’re so different tonally- queen and slim very cartoonish and waves going for realism. both being soundtrack heavy, the q + s one was more fitting I think. loved the music
