Ever wonder why Hollywood makes TV shows for Black people so basic? It’s not because we’re basic and it’s not because our writers are basic. It’s because networks keep them that way.
Why? What’s your best guess…

Yall told me to speak on Snoop Dogg, Rick Ross, Soulja Boy and Nelly. Here it is. No graphics, just bars.
If you feel me, pass it on.
I have loved and been a fan of every one of those artists. We got choices to make.

COLMAN DOMINGO you’re the man.

Meta captioned it with a typo.
I shoulda fixed it.
No excuses.
Peace and Love,

If you’d rather wait for lightning to strike, go away.
Patience is a virtue, they say.
But there is nothing noble about waiting when you have everything you need to start now.
Comment AUDIENCE to learn how.
Shout out to Colman Domingo. I really liked him in Zola, Euphoria, Michael and more.
But his story won’t be yours.
Today, creators make themselves the stars of tomorrow.
This is the end of the Hollywood movie star.

Someone is going to take the steps and go really far really fast.
It’s going to be someone with no connections and no budget.
Because those don’t matter anymore, thanks to the internet and social media.

If you want to launch a vertical series, comment VERTICAL.
The fancy film festivals + the rest of Hollywood are surrendering to the Creator Economy.
Which means that if you want to sell a TV show in Hollywood, you better build your audience right now.
The most straightforward way to do that right now with the resources you already have… is with a Vertical Series.
Begin now before you miss the opportunity.
