What the eff happened to Stoney Jackson? People have asked that over the years, and it does seem strange that he seemingly disappeared after being a staple of wackness and the jheri curl throughout the 80's. Kinda like Cuba Gooding would've been if he had a TV career. The last time I remember seeing him was in Chris Rock's shaky movie "CB4" as the rapper "Wacky D".
No milk carton needed, tho. It seems that he has worked pretty steadily in B movie heaven in the 90's (why wasn't I aware of this?) and more in television in the new millennium, even appearing on "Everybody Hates Chris" last year. How did I miss that? He seems to have a film that looks like it's going straight to DVD called "4-Bidden" (tagline: 'America's #1 R&B group is about to be rocked!').
Maybe he changed his name to Tony or something, or maybe we don't recognize him without his signature "Soul Glo" hair.

wow -- nice new look. yeah, stoney's hair was no joke. remember when he joined the white shadow? wasn't that him? i should look it up but i wont lol. you owe me for shadowboxer :)
Man was he in the proverbial "Turkey" of TV shows.
@jj: can't we find another way? doing research on Stoney is NOT my idea of a good time, haha. I don't know if he was on The White Shadow, but I wouldn't be surprised...he was all over the place back in the day. @jon: you mean "jive turkey". That sounds more corny and appropriate for Stoney...
lol not jive turkey. that's funny.
