	New jack swing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		New jack swing is a hybrid style of rhythm and blues (RandB) combined with hip hop, popular from the late 1980s to early/mid-1990s.
		Also called "new jack RandB" or "swingbeat", the term was coined either by journalist and New Jack City co-writer Barry Michael Cooper or music artist and producer Teddy Riley who invented this style in the experiment of integrating various rhythms, samples and production techniques with the urban contemporary sound of RandB.
		New jack swing is also known for its aggression, swaggering and addressing romantic themes and lyrics.

	‘New Jack City’ (R)
		Mario Van Peebles' "New Jack City" whizzes past your head with the velocity of a bullet, and with such immediacy that it leaves behind a whiff of cordite.
		The stuff of "New Jack City" is the stuff of a thousand exploitation films; it's the familiar story of cops versus pushers, yet somehow, though the shape of the narrative and a lot of the details are commonplace, Van Peebles penetrates to the reality behind the cliches.
		"New Jack" is a term one journalist used to describe the turbulent new mood in the inner cities, and Mario Van Peebles -- who's the son of filmmaker Melvin Van Peebles -- gets under the fingernails of this fierce spirit.

	Virtual Urth - New jack City DVD Reviewed By Peter Suciu (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		New Jack City is not your typical gangster epic; it is a different kind of film about a very different kind of gangster.
		These notes discuss what "New Jack" is (being the importance of style and fashion while living in the ghetto), as well as background on the film.
		The film is stylish and gritty, presenting a message that this "New Jack" style is part of the menace to society and drugs are just the routes being taken to achieve the look and maintain the fashion.

		New Jack City doesn't offer a whole lot that's new to the "city drug war" genre, but it was one of the first flicks to dress the tale up for a new generation.
		The Road to New Jack City is a 28-minute behind-the-scenes featurette packed with recent interview segments by Mario Van Peebles, Wesley Snipes, Ice-T, Chris Rock, Judd Nelson, Allen Payne, and producer Doug McHenry.
		New Jack City seems just a little bit preachier than I remember, but it also stands up as a perfectly entertaining crime thriller.

		However you interpret it, New Jack City is still one of the first and best films of the 1990s to crack open the underworld of cocaine and peer inside with its eyes wide open.
		It is a tough, realistic portrayal of the damage wrought to the inner city by the crack cocaine epidemic.
		This was because, for all its great points, New Jack City was generally regarded by both the critics and the Hollywood elite as a "fl" movie and as such unworthy of being considered as legitimate cinema irregardless of how much money it earned for its releasing studio.

	Film Roar: New Jack City (1991)
		Poorly written, directed, shot, and acted, New Jack City is supposed to be a hard cutting movie about the conflict between cops and crack dealers on the streets of New York.
		New Jack City and Menace II Society were just living off Boyz in the Hood.
		I actually think new jack city was a highly enjoyable film but i appreciate the sentiment against the number of gangster flicks that have been made in comparison to other types of film.

		"New Jack City" is set in Harlem where local drug dealer, Nino Brown (Wesley Snipes) is making a dazzling rise as the neighborhood dealer of a new drug, called crack.
		He is chilly, brutal, and ruthless, and can be best described in by the lyrics of the rap "New Jack Hustler", by Ice-T which is part of the soundtrack.
		Despite it's age, "New Jack City" is still a movie to see and enjoy.

		Mario Van Peebles' "New Jack City" gives a close-up view of the ravages the drug epidemic has created in New York City over the past decade.
		What makes "New Jack City" a better film than a typical good guy triumph over bad guy scenario is the immediacy of the story, and the complexity of the issues it raises.
		The irony of the small band of children learning to fight drug abuse in an atmosphere riddled with it is striking, and shows the near hopelessness of the situation.

	New Jack City DVD Review - MovieWeb
		While certainly dated in itâs look (not that I have ever had a problem with that), New Jack City is one of those films that will remain timely for a bevy of reasons.
		In âNJC,â I think itâs very interesting hearing members of the hip-hop community (as well as other types of artists) talk about this movie and what it was like seeing their world put on the screen.
		New Jack City may not have the violence or accessibility of say Menace II Society, but this is because it was a film that seemed to look at much broader issues.

	UGO.com DVD - New Jack City: Special Edition DVD Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Wesley Snipes' searing performance in New Jack City created a film gangster legend for a new generation, a New Jack hustler for the end of the millennium, ready to sell out his brother for the drug dollar dime.
		When New Jack City hit the mainstream in 1991, it was an immediate sensation, with a blazing soundtrack and a story that felt classic, in a gangster or Greek tragedy sense, but also current, tackling the headlines and the realities of the day with a fresh, new, hip-hop style.
		New Jack City hasn't aged a day, not only because of its topical drug related subject matter, but because its an all-around well made movie.

	NJS4E: New Jack Swing & Urban Music by Andrew Knyte
		This article will seek to define to the average reader what New Jack Swing (hereafter also referred to as "NJS") specifically was and is. I do not wish to reinvent the wheel here: Knyte has done a masterful job of chronicling NJS in the context of 'pop culture' and its year by year history.
		I've always heard the term was coined by journalist Barry Michael Cooper in describing this new brand of R&B. The second theory is that Teddy Riley himself coined the phrase.
		New Jack Swing also was a musical and cultural phenomenon, as Knyte stated.

		But Jack came to Denver in a completely different manner: The station owners basically followed the Southwest Airlines model — find a transmitter in a nearby market (in this case, Fort Collins) and a more or less unused frequency and market it to the big city.
		Worse, “Jack” now has a very bad name; the WCBS fiasco probably ruined the idea of the Jack format for many.
		This risk is heightened by branding of formats across company lines; Jack in Denver is locally owned, where Jack in New York and Chicago (WJMK-FM) are owned by Infinity.
