This is one of my favorite episodes. The experience, the history, the amazing storytelling by Jason Weaver is phenomenal. I've been a fan of Jason all my life just like most of his fans. I think this platform is the first platform where I have heard his story and journey. Especially being told so sincerely. He definitely deserved his flowers and these guys gave him the well deserved flowers he needed.
As a kid born and raised in Chicago, Jason Weaver- Love’s Ambition is mandatory. Every stepper’s set, skating rink R&B close out (when they play R&B to bring the spot down to shoot yo last shot at that girl or to kick everybody out), family get together, any party, etc. it’s played. Chicago has loved and will always love Jason. He represents the Chicago that you don’t see.
This interview was everything!! Being from Chicago, Jason is a hometown legend. Found out so many things from this interview. I remember that McDonald’s commercial and to find out that is his mom, is so dope!!! Salute black kings!!!
Fam Chicago is the Mecca of Comedy in my opinion and the home too many great Actors, entertainers and entrepreneurs. I don't know what's in the Illinois water but there's so much talent out there. Much love to the Chi.
From Drumline, Smart Guy, Thea, Jackson 5 family movie, Lion King, ATL, Summertime Switch...the list is Long when it comes to Jason Weaver and his accomplishments and One Call Away with Chingy Is my shit too💯💯
Great great interview. Jason is very articulate and his storytelling is phenomenal. I love how everyone was engaged the entire time. No awkward pauses. Jason is definitely a living legend who shaped my childhood, both Smart Guy and Lion King were so impactful to the culture ❤ Glad he’s getting all his flowers while he can smell them. Well deserved!!
YALL!!!! JASON WEAVER!!!! My goodness!!! This was ANOTHER GOOD ONE!!!! The way he handed out so many props and 💐 💐💐💐 was beautiful and NEEDED! This man will be kept due to his humble spirit. 💯🙌🏾❤️
I don't think everyone fully understands how big it is to play the original young Simba.... AND young Michael Jackson. And his parents were smart enough to not take a regular check. They negotiated royalties. His great-grandkids are set up for life. The (original) Lion King is Disney's highest selling movie of all time.
I'm glad this man is getting his flowers and none other than the 85 South Collective to share this moment! These experiences are so necessary for our community and I'm here and supporting!!
Love this interview! Jason Weaver had such an impact on my childhood. We are blessed to have him! I’m so glad they brought him on the show. Shout out to 85 South show! 💯❤️🙌🏾
Hey Jason, we love and appreciate you and your work over the years. Please know that as a Chicago Stepper, your song Love Ambition is one of my favorite songs to step to. You did that! Many blessings to you! ❤
Salute to Chicago's very Own Jason Weaver and the 85 south show for this episode. That love ambition record was that move back in 1995 for me & still gets rotation. Glad to Hear him explain how beautiful our city is despite how the national media shows the masses. SUMMER TIME CHI is that Move. #Dantana773
85 South is rounding up everybody. Got little Michael Jackson, the sanging voice of Lil Simba, one of the actors we all can say, we grew up with him... Jason Weaver. Tremendous Blessings.
Jason you are a national treasure. I get excited anytime I see you in something different. The longevity even in the down periods is what I admire, and you are a hero in my eye! Please do more interviews!
Growing up in South Africa, Jason Weaver, I couldn't wait to get back from school to go watch you guys on TV. Thank you for making a lot of black kids' childhoods enjoyable! 🇿🇦

Come on baby I was born 01 I kno what’s going
Uuh nah. This was for this 90s kids.
Yes!!!!! The 80's too the 90's
I’m a late 80s baby, but it’s definitely for the 90s kids. I love me some Jason Weaver 😍🤩
80s babies are 90s kids… these 90s and 2000s babies missed out on this interview.
you can tell Jason is comfortable in life with no worries..moms plugged him with the Disney plug for life
No lie that Disney Plug is different 😂😅 for y'all that haven't seen the R&B music podcast plz go watch the eps with Coco Jones.
@@mrnosleepinhouston2132 yeah that was a good episode.
@@mrnosleepinhouston2132 please tell me the podcast that you’re referring to. I love Coco Jones
@@junglis074ever it's at the top 🔝🔝🔝🔝
@@mrnosleepinhouston2132 it’s the R&B Money podcast with Tank and J Valentine.
I love to watch interviews with Jason. He’s always so down to earth. Amazing energy. True talent.
I agree
I don't think everyone fully understands how big it is to play the original young Simba.... AND young Michael Jackson.
And his parents were smart enough to not take a regular check. They negotiated royalties. His great-grandkids are set up for life. The (original) Lion King is Disney's highest selling movie of all time.
Watching Disney on Ice listening to young Simba....aka Jason Weaver..yes mama was smart..
I'm glad this man is getting his flowers and none other than the 85 South Collective to share this moment! These experiences are so necessary for our community and I'm here and supporting!!
