Tyrese Gibson is a Grammy Award-nominated, multi-platinum recording artist and celebrated film star from the "Transformers" and "The Fast and the Furious" franchises. But over 25 years into his career, Gibson reveals why he faced great challenges trying to get projects that he's actually passionate about made.
Whether its making "1992," set in his hometown of Watts, Los Angeles, with its heavy topic (the Rodney King riots) or producing his new album "Beautiful Pain," a deeply vulnerable story about this last relationship, the release of these projects are "real miracles," Gibson told me during our "Salon Talks" conversation.
