Barry Michael Cooper, Visionary Behind ‘New Jack City’ And ‘Above The Rim,’ Dead At 66
The 1991 crime thriller starred Wesley Snipes, Ice-T, and Chris Rock and became a cultural gem in cinema. Cooper continued to shape the landscape of Black storytelling with Sugar Hill (1993), starring Snipes again and Above the Rim (1994), starring Tupac Shakur. His masterful skill would go on to coin what became known as “New Jack Cinema.”
