My Take
What I love about Omar Gooding, also known as Big O, is his sheer refusal to be boxed in. Actor, voice actor, comedian, rapper, television performer, all from one Los Angeles native who came up through University High School. To me, that range is not restlessness but generosity, the mark of an entertainer who simply wants to please a crowd in every form available. Working alongside the louder fame of his brother Cuba Gooding Jr., he carved out his own colorful, versatile lane. I find that quietly admirable.
