Tyrese Gibson takes us on an unforgettable journey to the childhood home of Muhammad Ali in Louisville, Kentucky — a sacred site where greatness was born. In this moving piece of real-life storytelling, Tyrese reflects on Ali’s legacy, the influence of Islam through Malcolm X and Elijah Muhammad, and the deep roots of Black excellence that shaped him.
But this isn’t just a tribute to legends — it’s also a celebration of the next generation. Tyrese shares a personal, unfiltered moment with his children and those of the late John Singleton, speaking about family, respect, coding, legacy, and the ties that connect generations of Black creatives. There’s even a rare, emotional story about how Tupac entered Tyrese’s life — thanks to Singleton.
This is hip hop culture in motion: reverence, resilience, and real love — all passed from Ali to Singleton to Tupac to Tyrese… and now to the kids they’re raising with vision and pride.
