The film stars Denzel Washington and A$AP Rocky, who&#8217;ve both been doing their part in promoting the film. In a conversation with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=WV2EpELLUuo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">GQ,<\/a> all three men sat down and discussed the film and its creation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">In one particularly funny moment from the interview, A$AP Rocky asked Lee about a dolly shot from his 1998 film He Got Game. During the answer, Washington reached over to jokingly steal the watch, refusing to give it back after. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">&#8220;Yo! I&#8217;m getting robbed by Denzel right now,&#8221; Rocky told the camera with a smile. Lee joked that Rocky is never getting that watch back, and hoped, for his sake, that it did not fit. Unfortunately for Rocky, it was a perfect fit. Washington then flashed the watch at the camera after he put it on.<\/p>\n<p>Spike Lee Highest 2 Lowest<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">In recent months, Denzel Washington and A$AP Rocky have clearly developed a bit of a friendship. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/938010-asap-rocky-lost-rap-battle-denzel-washington-hip-hop-news\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">Rocky recently said<\/a> that Washington is a fan of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/profile\/dmx\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">DMX<\/a>, Moneybagg Yo, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/profile\/nle-choppa\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">NLE Choppa<\/a>.

It follows Washington, who plays a Quincy Jones-like producer at a label called Stackin&#8217; Hits. Rocky plays Washington&#8217;s son, a rapper named Yung Felon. The film got a brief (and very limited) theatrical release, but it will land on Apple TV+ on September 5.<\/p>\n<p>  <script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Spike Lee released his latest film, Highest 2 Lowest, on August 15.
