Larenz Tate Interview at The Breakfast Club Power 105.1 (04/07/2016) 

THA BIG HOMIE LORENZ! Been in the game for a LONG TIME now. Nothin but respect for one of the greatest actors and very underrated.

underrated actor. very underrated

He's so humble and well spoken

These 90's actors live CLEAN lives, no heavy drugs or no drugs at all, no drinking, clean eating, positive mindset, social circle that understands their lifestyles. That's the only way they look so young and alive after all of these years.

Larenz Tate seems like he would be a cool friend to have

Larenz Tate is a vampire. The older he get the better he looks. Fine asf

This dude doesn't age...

2PAC WILL BE TALKED ABOUT FOR 1000 YEARS TO COME.....THE GREATEST WHO EVER DID IT..

Larenz Tate is the epitome of Hollywood class and sophistication...Just a true gentleman. One of the most underrated actors in the business!! - Great interview!

My favorite movie that people don't mention a lot he played in is "Inkwell"

I like when a celebs keep it real financially

his catalog is crazy, I might get every movie he played in...

This dude is supposedly 40 yrs old...Him and Pharrell got some secret they aint telling nobody lolz

Pacs stories are always awesome to hear

I love him in Dead Presidents the most..

The definition of "Black don't crack" ❤️

lord i'm so glad he brought up that today's black movies are not versatile enough as it were in the 90's, that was the last decade of golden black movies

Man, that introduction by Charlemagne was warranted. Because Larenz, that brother been entertaining our culture since the late 1980s. As an 11-year back in 1993, he scared the hell out of me as O-Dog in Menace II Society when my mom took me to see that movie at the theater. Larenz is a FUCKING legend.

The 90s was the Golden Era for Black Cinema....Here is proof: Friday, Boyz in the Hood, Poetic Justice, juice, Menace to Society, Set It Off, the wood, the best man, Above the Rim, waiting to exhale, Harlem Nights, Coming to America, Inkwell, The Bodyguard, boomerang, Malcolm X, What's Love Got to Do with It, house party, soul food, bad boys, life, Love Jones, Jason's Lyric, New Jack City, Higher Learning, Dead Presidents, Sister Act, belly, A Low Down Dirty Shame, Eve' s Bayou, He Got Game, White Men Can't Jump, Blue Streak, booty call, In Too Deep, Mo Money, Rosewood, the preacher's wife, Cool Runnings, Doctor Dolittle, baps, A Thin Line Between Love and Hate, baby boy, Major Payne, Jungle Fever, The Hurricane, Amistad, get on the bus, sprung, The Nutty Professor, The Players Club, How Stella Got Her Groove Back, Enemy of the State. I could keep going. But This doesn't even include late 80s (maybe two of em) and early 00s movies we all know and love

This man makes Chicago proud.

What an intelligent, loving, faithful, ambitious righteous man. God bless him and his family. Ladies, take heart, THEY DO exist!!

Larenz has ALWAYS been one of my favorites... From Menace to Society, Dead Presidents, Love Jones and Why Do Fools....Very underrated but can act his ass off. And he fine💜😍.lol

This man has not done 1 movie that isn't a classic today.

I will always remember the first time I laid my eyes on him in How Do Fools Fall In Love, I fell in love with him INSTANTLY. He's always been so sweet, funny AND humble. This man has shown SO much growth throughout the years and he still looks AMAZING❤️🙈 #ThankYouMrTate #SoUnderrated

Larenz in Ashanti video tho OMG!!!! Just everything!!!!

I remember Larenz in that episode of the fresh prince when Ashley went to the same school as Carlton & Will and she was dressing all sexy and Larenz tried to holla at her but when he saw a hotter chick he dipped 😂😂😂😂

I've known about Larenz since 1993 when my mom took me to see Menace as an 11-year old. That brother is smart, wise, and see's the big picture in life and in showbiz. I wish him more success.

This man is soooo, under rated as an actor. It's ridiculous smh.......and gorgeous. Can't forget gorgeous 😏😁😁😍

This guy has been with Halle Berry, Vivica A. Fox & Nia Long in his films. Round of applause 👏👏👏

I still have a crush on Larenz...!!!!

I never realized how personable Lorenz Tate is. He looks great.

This guy is one of the most gifted actors out there. He should've blown in Hollywood, like Leonardo and the likes of him.

He never ages!!!! I will always love Larez Tate!

He still is sexy. Maybe even better than when he played in Love Jones.

I would love to see a dead president sequel. That movie is so underrated. The soundtrack was a masterpiece. The theme the emotion everything was so real and believable. I wish they made more movies like it.

That was a good interview, I could listen to Larenz's conversation all day. I hate to use the term "well spoken" but he is . He's fine, he practices healthy habits, and he can hold a conversation that makes sense?! What a lucky family... Best wishes.

The Inkwell was a good movie too

He needs a Oscar for real

I understand that nobody is perfect but honestly this man is the Total Package!!! Been a fan/admirer from the beginning of his career

love jones was a classic , wish i grew up in the 90s .

one of the most underrated actor ever i swear!!!!!!

My Man still looks the same as he did back in the 90's lmao

This is such a handsome, talented and humble man. He has truly kept up with himself and it would be great to see him in movies again. Love Jones, is one of my favorite classics.

I remember Larenz when he was with Waldo on Family Matters when they spiked the punch at the roof party :-)

Health is Wealth. Can't even tell my man aged

down to earth brother.big respect

Do 90's stars get old? Larenz, Nia, Cube, LL?

"I'm sellin these mutha fuckas for $59.95"

I'm surprised they didn't mention the tv show South Central he was in. I liked that show...

it feel so good to listen a smart black man, talking money management....

remember when he was in Ashanti's "Rain On Me" video, still fine

this dude is 40. He looks like he did when he was 20.

I just love everything about this man.

Dude look like he 21.

The industry needs to be blowing up his phone. This dude is a very good actor. He's got range for real. Hope to see him on the big screen soon. Good luck sir.

He hit the nail right on the head...just because you can get into the house doesn't mean you can maintain it..these rappers and ball players out here buying $2million dollar homes....that maintenance is no joke.

One of THEE best interviews

Ya'll aint never lie. I remember being little watching him.. And he looks the same! Whatever he is doing, if its his diet or whatever I want it!! Also he is one of the most underrated actors ever..

He does NOT age...such a beautiful man❤❤

Dj Envy : can you tell the people what a movie is?

Black people, if most of us can just lay off the grease and liquor, this is usually the result. Healthy Blackness is Ageless,our physic was designed to blend with nature,thats why we're the only race that isn't easily harmed by the sunlight and whatever race we mix with, our Blackness is always the dominant feature.

Frankie Lymon......I love his performance. An under rated actor Thank you Breakfast Club

It's not just the fact that Larenz is SWEET UP, it's the way he carries himself. He's smart and humble, witty and confident, and knows how to stay relevant and productive without being extra and lame. I love him and I loved this interview. FAN. FOR. LIFE.

I remember when I first seen him in the TV show South Central.

I just really like him. Like there's just something about him.

he is good looking and very smart I like how he speaks.

He still looks so amazinnng🔥❤️

L. Tate is speaking the truth about the liabilities of a house. R.T. Kiyosaki spoke about it in, "Rich Dad, Poor Dad." A house is a big liability, and a lot of people don't realize that.

I love that he shouted out the WESTside of Chicago! lol Very rare.

Larenz Tate got them good genes....plant based or no....damn he aint aged AT ALL.

Love jones and dead presidents were classics if haven't seen them you sleepin heavy.

Larenz Tate is one of my favorite actors of all time. Grew up watchin him in so many movies. Dude is underrated

Great interview! Terrific Actor.

Alot people dont know he was only 20 in Love Jones he still pretty young

I went to school with one of his younger cousins. He's so dope and down to Earth.

I love this man so much! Definitely a great actor. I remember when he was on the short lived but phenomenal show South Central.

Very underrated actor

Nia Long still bad AF

Larenz Tate has done an awesome job through out his career. keep up the good work.

Loved this interview. Heard it on the radio. Came back to see it again!

He hasn't aged a bit, looks wise. He looks good. Menace II Society is still one of my favorite movies.

A classic man.

Love Jones is my favorite movie. It doesn't need a sequel. The whole vibe of love jones can't be recreated especially with the way the world has changed. Some things should just be left alone. However Larenz and Nia should maybe do something else.

His sensibility is awesome. #GoToThePark!!

he deserves an unsung episode

I need Larenz Tate in my life!💕😍

My first time seeing Lorenz Tate on TV is when he played in Brewster's place with Oprah Winfrey and Jackie` as the lead he was like 12 and I remember him from the TV show "South Central"..

I love lorenze Tate man he is a fucking legend period one of the best and such a real ass cool ass brother man so much respect for him

This was a great interview! I love Larenz & he never ages!!!!!

This man is and has always been so beautiful - very nice to look at.

DJ envy: do any poetic females come up to you?

So damn good to see this brother. Dick Gregory, now Larenz Tate! Breakfast club, I'm proud of you for bringing great people to have on your show. Great for the black culture and community. Keep up the great work!

Now I want to watch all his movies again. He is such a great actor.
