• 2:39
  Speaker 5: Uh well, uh I tell this story a lot. I've
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: thourough myself telling it a lot more and more lately.
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: But this me doing the theme sor was something that
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: Aaron saw way before he even had a show because
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: when it was still a comic streak and so he
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: always told me, like years before he got the deal,
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: he was like, man, if he's a win I ever
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: get a TV show, I want you to do my
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: theme song. And I was like, all, ain't no doubt you,
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: but man, let's do it. I'm from the U Street
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: era of hip hop here in DC and so and
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: Aaron is a part of that too, you know. And
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: so Yeah, when the years went by, we kept bumping
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: in each other and finally it happened and he was like,
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna sing you the beat, and I went and
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: he called me on the phone and he said, look,
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: I'm sending you the beat right now. He said, I
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: want you to make it thirty seconds long, don't miss
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: any of the characters, and I want you to make
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: it as black as you could possibly make it.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: It was definitely black, and he went he went blacker
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: than that, Yeah, and he hung up the phone.
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: And the reason why it's super black is because the
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: first version I sent him, he was like, Yo, this
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: is dope, but like make another one for me. Like
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: you almost like I love this, but make me another one.
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: So I wrote another one.
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: Sent it to him.
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: He was like, oh man, this is incredible, but it's
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: just not hitting where I needed to hear. I hadn't
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: seen any of it, so I'm shooting in the dark,
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: you know. So I said, all right, this is no problem.
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: Make a third one. Sent it to him. He's like, nah, man,
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: this is He's like, this shit is dope. Man, I'm sorry,
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: but like, I'm sorry, this is dope, but I can't.
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: So now I'm thinking something's wrong with Aaron. Because now
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: I'm frustrated, Like I know, I'm dope. It was wrong
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: with Aaron. So then I wrote the fourth one. He
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: said no, fifth one, he said no. Sixth to one,
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: he says no. Seventh time I go to the studio.
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: My son might have been like three years old at
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: the time I walked. We walked, We walked to the
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: studio my boy's crib. I took my son with me,
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: saturn the couch. I looked at the engine there. I said, yo,
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: if Aaron doesn't take this one, forget it. Like I quit,
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: and I went in and I just spit. I have
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: the stone at the build and refused.
• 5:03
  Speaker 6: It.
• 5:03
  Speaker 7: Makes sure to say something like that.
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: So I sent them that and he was like, Yo,
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: this is the world. And I was just like super
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: thankful because I was almost about to quit. I'm happy
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: that it happened.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: That's my daily affirmation. How many people like? That's what
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: The lyrics really are inspirational because they do mean something
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: and it does.
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: That should be the wake up call right like now
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: even now anthem.
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: I mean, it's about the Black experience in America. You know,
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: we're the stones that the builder refused me, the ones
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: that got rejected that ended up being the cornerstone of
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: the country. You know what I mean, stone that the
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: build and refuse, the visual, the inspiration to say that
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: made ladies sing, the blue so strange fruit we hung
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: on trees, you know what I mean. Spark that makes
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: your eye did bright. All the black inventions, all the
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: things that we create, culture, cuisine, fashion, sports, art, entertainment,
• 6:04
  Speaker 5: that's us.
• 6:05
  Speaker 8: You know.
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: We just spark to make your idea bright. The same spark,
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: the same spark, so we get it from a divine source.
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: We the same spark, the lights the dark, so that
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: you can know you're left from your right. We the
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: ballad in your box, the bullet in your gun, the
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: inner glow to let you know, to call your brother's son.
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: The story that just begun, the promise of what's to come,
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: and I'm gonna remain a soldier to the war is won.
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: So yeah, I couldn't make it no blacker than.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: That, and we needed way more than thirty seconds of that.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: I'm just hold off for you on the other end
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: of that spectrum.
• 6:41
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: What a lot of people don't know is that the
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: Martin Luther King episode that we did on The Boondocks
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: where we want to look at that when Martin Luther
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: King was when he did his speech to niggas, that
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: was also a song that ash so that yeah, so
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: the so the lyrics actually came from a song that
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: he had recorded before the show. Yeah, but that's what.
• 7:10
  Speaker 10: Niggas and you don't want to be a nigga, cause
• 7:15
  Speaker 10: niggas are living contradictions. Niggas are full of en fulfilled ambitions.
• 7:21
  Speaker 10: Niggas watch and wayne. Niggas love to complain. Niggas love
• 7:27
  Speaker 10: to hear themselves talk, but the hate to explain. Niggas
• 7:31
  Speaker 10: love being another man's judginger.
• 7:34
  Speaker 7: Niggas procrassing it till the time to worry. That's why
• 7:37
  Speaker 7: but niggas get back in the.
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: Corner, they throw flurries.
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: That was a song called Niggas that I wrote as
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: a seriously, but it was a It was a tribute
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: to a last the Last Poet. I don't know if
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: you're familiar, but Last Poet is pre hip hop. But
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: they had a song called Niggas a scared of revolution.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: And that was my verse. That was my take on
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: that song. You know what, now that you mentioned that,
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: what does that look like now?
• 8:12
  Speaker 6: For real?
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: What does that look like?
• 8:14
  Speaker 11: Now?
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: We are here in this world and we faced these
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: a new trial every day.
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: I mean, that's why we need shows like this back
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: we be a car was just talking about it like,
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: this is the time right now where where it could
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: it would be powerful, you know, because of all of
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: the content and all the things that are going on.
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: But this is definitely not a time to be scared.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: So that's right. I know how it would look right now.
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: It was check them up like it did before, dude,
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: just like it shake them up like they did before.
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: So there's a voicemail that Aaron McGrew left on your
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: voicemail right, What was that above?
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: So during those years when he was telling me, Oh,
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: I'm almost there. I'm almost there with to get the show.
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: I kept bumping into him, you know, at like ed conference.
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: I was at an education conference. One time I saw
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: him in the lobby of a hotel I was staying
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: at randomly, and we bumped in each other. Then I
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: saw him again at a most Deaf show randomly, like
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: were walking out and I'm like, all, what's up. So
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: at that time I gave him this mixtape I had
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: called Insomnia, and it was just a collection of like
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: joints that I was thinking about putting out or whatever.
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: And he listened to it and he called me and
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: he left this long message just about like the different
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: songs he loved and what he wanted to talk about.
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: And it was dope, man, it was. It was a
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: long heartfelt message.
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: And then I ended up releasing Insignia and putting that
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: voicemail on the on the.
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: On the mixtape.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: So yeah, man, you know, to help me with my.
• 10:00
  Speaker 11: When that's the one I think I show.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: So yeah, Confession of the New Joint Man, really really
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: quick stuff and ahead up.
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: Good hearing that bag? What does that feel like?
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: I just think about that that early phase of it
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: all you know, and it was still just ideas floating
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: in your mind before it was a physical, tangible thing,
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: you know. And so yeah, that's what it makes me
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: think of, just just Aaron being on that grind and
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: us putting music together and just you know what became
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: of that call, that phone call.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: It puts you in a different mind state. You know,
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: you've been in the business, like twenty years.
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: Next year'll be thirty. My first release was in ninety seven,
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: so next year it will be thirty years.
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: We are living in an age where hip hop is
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: literally rid.
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: Like it's another call because you know, Redman's here in
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: the building day I saw dropped the new album last
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: year along with a couple others. But you're a Peabody
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: Award winer on top of that, Give it up, Give
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: it up that Peabody Award. Receiving that Peabody Award for
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: your work.
• 11:21
  Speaker 5: I remember when when they were putting out the Martin
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: Luther King episode, Aaron called me like, maybe I think
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: it came on on a Sunday night. He called me,
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: like Thursday or Friday. He was like, wait till Sunday.
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: He said, wait till you see what I got. Martin
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: Luther King. He said, I got Martin Luther King saying
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: your lyrics. And I was like, you ain't got Martin
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: Luther King saying my lyrics. He was like, yes I do.
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: I was like, man, for real, He's like, no, I
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: got him saying that whole nigga song. And I was
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: like no, no, no, no, no, Aaron, no, I'm literally
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: on the phone like no, man, don't do that. He's
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: like it's too late, bro, It's coming out on Sunday,
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: like whatever.
• 12:05
  Speaker 8: You know.
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: But you know what's funny about that that I remember
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: the next day I was me and Aaron were sitting
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: together and it came on CNN. Yeah yeah, I'm saying.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: That's as I say.
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: Because the next so that Monday, seeing that had Jesse
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: Jackson rested the god busted dad Al Sharpton, they were
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: all like this is an abomination.
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: Were was ever? But that was I remember that was
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: the moment where we were like, oh shit, Like that
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: was the first time we were like what the fuck
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: are we doing this?
• 12:36
  Speaker 5: I remember, and I just remember saying, yo, Aaron, you
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: gonna get in trouble man if you put that out.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: And then the next day when all of that happened.
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: I think it got a kick out of it.
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: I think he actually enjoyed rilling, like having that kind
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: of response. But I'm gonna tell you what's really funny though.
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: Years later, I did a panel at Stanford University at
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: the King Research Center with a brother and I'm sorry,
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: I don't remember it name, but Clarence. There's a brother
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: that used to be a speech writer friend of King.
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: His first name was Clarence. I'm sorry, I forget his
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: last name. So the brother's on the panel. I didn't
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: know I was there for an ambush. I'm thinking I'm
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: there for the panel, and somebody was like, why would
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: you have Doctor King saying those words? So they're going
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: on and on and it was like a whole thing,
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: and I turned to Clarence and I was like, Clarence,
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: you were cool with Doctor King, right, He's like yeah.
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: I said, like that was your boy. He was like yeah,
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: I said so, Like I said, so you're telling me
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: you never had a time where you rode around with
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: Doctor King or hung out. And he like was like,
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: look at them niggas over there, said something like something
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: to that effect, you know, And he was like yeah,
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: of course. And I was like, see, I was like,
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: y'all tripping Doctor King was a human being.
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: It was a real man, you know what I mean,
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: as if it wouldn't come off.
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so yeah, but yeah that But when the Peabody though,
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: was it definitely honor. I found out in that time
• 13:58
  Speaker 5: it was the first time a cartoon units ever won
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: that award, first time a rapper ever won that award.
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: So I'm just you know, to be in the business
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: as long as you have, and to see the kids
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: that started out listening to music and now seeing them
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: as adults, that's that's gotta do something, especially in the style.
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: Of hip hop.
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: Hip hop is that one genre in music where your mom,
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: the mom and the daughter or the dad and the
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: son might have the same favorite rapper, you know, like
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: we might both be listening to Kindrick or both be
• 14:36
  Speaker 5: listening to whoever, you know what I mean. And before,
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: like when I was growing up, I listened to the music,
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: the cookout music. I listened to the music that my
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: parents played.
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: But this generation and my generation and up, we're a
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: little different, you know what I mean, Like we all
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: are having this experience together, we're all using social media together,
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: We're doing things that our parents just did dude, when
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: we were younger, you know, So I think it just
• 15:03
  Speaker 5: opens up a do it for a lot of opportunity.
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: But yeah, I see people all the time, young kids.
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: I talk to him about The Blue and I say, like,
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: I don't know what you're talking about it because it
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: was twenty years ago, you know what I mean. Say,
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: if you're twelve thirteen, you might not know, but your
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: mom your dad knows cause they're like, oh, I grew
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: up on that now, like that now I feel old
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: because you grew up on it, you know. So it's
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: it's dope though, man, I think hip hop keeps you young,
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: so I ain't complaining and seeing your.
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: Lyrics to the intro placed against the animation that's got
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: to be beyond the dream.
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, man, I definitely tear it up, like damn, because
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: you know, I didn't see it on TV.
• 15:42

• 16:01
  Speaker 5: we're gonna make another song, We're gonna do a new
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: season theme song. They kept that theme song.
• 16:05
  Speaker 7: So that's what's like.

  Speaker 3: Sure, man, you dude, you put in so much work,
• 16:11

  Speaker 4: So Carl being being part of this cornerstone of creating
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: the Boomtocks and then knowing that it really made an
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: impact on the culture, you know, poking fun at the culture,
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: putting the mirror up to reality. What is that feeling
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: like for you when you still see how relevant it's
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: necessary now?
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean seeing that it's still relevant is uh,
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: it's a little surreal, you know, because I mean we
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: did it so long ago, you know what I mean
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: so like it's funny because like love and I be
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: sitting in the house and should be on TikTok and
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: I'll hear my voice like just like boo, like how
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: they still playing that.
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: The time?
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: Is? What did he do to.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: Every time?
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: That comes up?
• 17:53
  Speaker 7: Every time?
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: So it's crazy like just like this especially, I mean
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: it's been twenty years right, so like here like magnificent
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: coming from you know what I mean.
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: Like Warrior, oh god, warrior body.
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: Is more important and TikTok.
• 18:13
  Speaker 13: No.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: Wait, I got a funny story for you guys.
• 18:15
  Speaker 14: Though.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: I was gonna like I heard Flee Johnson actually got
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: out of jail, so I wanted to set up a call.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I have a dark twist her. I wanted
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: to set up a call with him the car, but
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: then I saw how mad he was about it.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: So I was like maybe not well, because this nigga
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: really does this for real, you know, like he really
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: loves Booty, Like I don't want no smoke with him.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: It's crazy like I was. I was like, legit scared
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: when he got out. I remember he called you out right,
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: he was like my boy. I started I started deactivate
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: my Instrugram's quite so, none of that, but nah, But
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: I mean but I think I think to your other
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: point about it being necessary now, I mean, yeah, I agree.
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: I mean the question that I always get and I'm
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: sure as you hear it, and I know, Aaron, everyone
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: hears why doesn't it come out now? Or where's the show?
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: Or is it coming back? Would it be a season
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: five or six? And I mean the truth is it's
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: just really really hard. It's a hard sell today, right,
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: And I don't think that the audience is necessarily too sensitive.
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: I just think that the networks aren't taking as many
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: risks as they did before, you know. And and some
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: of that could be because they're afraid of the backlashes
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: they would get. But I think the other part of
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: it is not to get two winded. But the streaming
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: platforms just went through a streaming streaming war where they
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: were fighting for subscribers, and they made a whole lot
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: of content, thinking that if they had more content than
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: the next than the competitor, that they would actually get
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: more subscriptions. But that didn't actually turn out that way.
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: But while they were, you know, going through these streaming wars,
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: they spent a whole lot of money making shit that
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: nobody was watching. So now they're trying to overcorrect that
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: and they're not making anything, you know what I'm saying.
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: But even during the streaming wars, I think that there
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: was still this need to reach like this broad global audience, right,
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: because like Netflix became this this like you know monster, Right,
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: it's like, like, you know what I mean, where they
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: you know, you started out as a small boutique company,
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: but now they're all over the world. So they started
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: making content that spoke in their minds, that spoke to
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: a broader audience. So I think everything started to become
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: kind of homogenized, and people weren't taking risk on on
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: on shows or movies that spoke to a very specific
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: audience or a subculture, which which is something that I
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: think the Boondocks did. So I think part of the
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: problem is is there's not a lot of networks out
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: there willing to take the type of risk that it
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: would take to get behind a show where we have
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: Booty Warriors and we got gangst deliciouses and magnificence.
• 20:59
  Speaker 9: You know what I mean.
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: We do have a lot of that that's going on now.
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: And as Ashual mentioned, being winning this Peabody Award when
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: you got that call.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: What was that, like, what you mean with the Peabody Award? Yeah,
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: I mean it was well, first of all, I'm gonna
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: be honest, I didn't know what the Peabody was. It
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: was just like, you know, I was just I was
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: happy to be working in animation.
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: You know, I come from a small town Fabuel, North Carolina.
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: Bro Like, okay, okay, all right, y'all have much like
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: J Cole. But yeah, so like for me, I was
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: just excited to be making cartoons, man, especially the kind
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: of cartoons that we were making, because you know, it
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: spoke directly to us.
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: When I grew up, I was I was a big
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: fan of the Flintstones and the Jetson's right, And I
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: remember when I was watching those shows as a kid,
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: I was like, Damn, they don't got no niggas in
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: the future or the past. You know what I'm saying.
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: I'm like, I want to do something about that.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: So I always had this dream, Like I said, I
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: always had this dream of being an animator, of being
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: a cartoonist. I didn't know i'd be writing and directing.
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: But so for me, once I did get my foot
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: in the industry and thanks to Aaron, you know, opening
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: the door for me and allowing me to work with
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: him to make this you know this cultural I guess
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: Landmark now and animation like that meant more to me
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: than anything. Going to work every day, hanging out with
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: my friends who basically became my family, and making each
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: other laugh like that was the reward for me. Like
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: I didn't. I still don't really know what the Peabody is.
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: Hear it a lot, It's not sure. Well what it is,
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: Carl is a uh No, It's an award for journalism
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: that comes out of the University of Georgia. It's like
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: it's like a journalism bullets if you will appreciate you brother.
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So let's talk about some of the voice acting
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: and in some of the projects you have coming because
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: you have worked with some people in this industry that
• 23:08
  Speaker 4: are now best known for voice acting and some of
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: them actors. No one thought in a million years that
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: will be Regina King doing both the brother's voices. And
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: now you look at Regina difference, You're like yeah, and
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: then you see the behind the scenes be like, wow,
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: that is weird.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: It's weird. I'm gonna be honest with every time I
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: hear her talk. Now, I can't not hear Hughie and Riley. Yo,
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: want you wanna hear some funny? So I'm watching TV
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: one day and there was a Maxi Pad commercial on
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: and it was talking about wings and absorbent see, but
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: it was Riley. Like I heard Riley talking about Maxie
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: pads as I looked at the TV and it dawned
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: to me it was Regina doing a commercial. But I
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: was like, talk about it? What is Sony doing?
• 23:57
  Speaker 7: Said?
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: This is ai. They don't want to mean the show back,
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: but they got Riley selling Maxi pass. So you are
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: working on some projects.
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: Obviously we know about Meg's new project, but you have
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: another special project line though, correct?
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: Yes, uh, is it time to talk about it now? Well,
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: well we will talk about is Uh. We did launch
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: this company called Martian Blueberry's funny you mentioned strange fruit
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: because Martian Blueberry is another way of saying strange fruit,
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: and because a lot of people are like, what what
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: is that name? What does mean? But I wanted to
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: find a more clever, kind of covert way to say that.
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: But we launched this company with with every intention on
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: on on giving us a place where we can tell
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: our stories authentically and and part of the reason was
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: what I talked about earlier, you know, with with the
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: industry being the way that it is and it's really
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: really hard to get these studios to take risks, we
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: wanted to take matters into our own hands and create
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: a company that work more under an independent model. Right.
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: So we do have some studio projects like the one
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: we're doing with Amazon and the Stallion called Hotties, and
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: we got a couple couple features in the works but
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: in development. But aside from that, like we're building this
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: underground railroad, you know what I mean, where where we
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: found a path to do really high quality anime movies
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: that speak to us because the blurred community, in my opinion,
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: is what created this explosion of anime all across the world.
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: And it's true, it's true. I think, I think, I mean,
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: we you know, we elevate everything we do and we
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: take we take things to a new level, and the
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: world is watching what we like. And so I feel like,
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: because there's not enough representation in anime, and and I'm
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: not asking them to represent us in anime. What I
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: am saying is that we have an opportunity to tell
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: our own stories and work with some of the same
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: Japanese studios, some of the same Japanese creators which we
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: did on The Boondogs. A lot of people because I know,
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: I hear this argument is an anime or is it
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: not anime? And I don't I don't really get into that,
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: but I will say I will say that we collaborate
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: with Studio Trigger and Madhouse, and you know what I'm saying,
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: We work with some and some of the Korean studios
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: that you know are working on some of these Japanese
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: anime as well. So it's I'm just saying, like, I
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: think there's a time where we can actually bring all
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: of these cultures together and do something really more specific
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: to us and that and that's basically what we're doing
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: in Martian Blueberry. I believe, I believe we actually have.
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: Someone who's working on that sh No No, that sh
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: okay black, that Okay so yeah, Black Dynamite, Black dam.
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: I'm just saying, I want to tell you a story.
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: The movie that created a whole another lane that we
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: didn't think it was possible, and you brought it to animation.
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: And working with this amazing cast, which was really the
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: same cast from the film. Yeah, how did that feel?
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: Like like they did. You can't pay for the head
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: Like it's a crazy story.
• 27:24
  Speaker 11: Man.
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: My whole life has been like really, my whole career
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: has been very serendipitous. Like I just I don't know,
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: I be in the right place at the right time.
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: But so Sigur Yarborough who plays Tom on The Boondocks,
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: you guys know, he's also Renal novel one, really really funny.
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: He plays Stinkman and also but he was in the
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: movie Black Dynamite as Chocolate Gideo, right, so so he
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: he uh. He actually came to the to the Boondocks
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: offices one day and he had a director's cut of
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: the movie and so I took it home and I
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: want I was like, yo, like this ship would make
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: a really dope animated series, right, And I swear to you,
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: Like a month later, it might have been two months,
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: but it was shortly after that, I get a call
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: from my manager and he's like, Yo, the Black Dynamite
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: people reached out and they want to see if you'd
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: be interested in doing something animated with Black Dynamite. Now,
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: mind you the director's cut that I saw, I wasn't
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: supposed to have seen. So they did a meeting with me,
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: and I acted like I saw it for the first time,
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: so I was just watching like oh, that's hilarious. But
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: after it was over, they were like, so what do
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: you think And I was like, oh, yeah, I had
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: a whole show laid out by then, So like I
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: pitched it to him, Michael joh White, you know, he
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: was on board, he loved it. Already had a relationship
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: with Adult Swim. So I literally went into Adult Swim
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: and pitched it and they bought it in a room,
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: you know, and I mean shortly after that, thank you.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: That's very rare. By the way, they don't buy in
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: the room.
• 28:59
  Speaker 9: No, it is.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: It is very rare. But I'll tell you one other thing.
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: So we wrote. So me and my partner Brian Ash,
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: who also worked with on The Boone Dogs, we wrote
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: the first pilot for Black Dynamite. It was Trouble on
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: Puppet Street. It was eleven minutes and Adult Swims saw
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: it and they were like, it's cool, right, but they
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: were like, can we push it a little? Because Adult
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: Swim is the only place to ask you to do
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: shit more weird or go or go further, you know
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: what I mean, like, because most networks are always pulling
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: you back. They're like, no, nigga, put your foot on
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: the gas. So we were like, shit, all right, So
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: we wrote another pilot you know, called Jackson five Across
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: your Eyes, you know what I'm saying, where we found
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: out that Joseph Jackson wasn't the abusive one in the family.
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: It was Michael, and then he was he was an alien,
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: and so they were like, yes, they're like, this is
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: what we're talking about.
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: But they did tell you to pull back where Yeah.
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: They So we turned into pilot script and we rarely
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: get notes from adults swim by the way on black
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: Dynamite or boone. But the one thing that they said
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: we couldn't do is because we had so we had
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: cream Michael Jackson and pregnantd cream corn with a thousand
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: alien babies. And they was like, that's what we draw
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: the line. The fact that they had a line to draw.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: After the drugs and gentlemen, he don't do anything and
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: that's how his mind works, not on drugs.
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: The fact they said push them, we need you to
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: push it and put your foot on the gas and
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: then it's like, oh no, that's what we draw the line.
• 30:34
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: I always get scared when people tell him no, do it.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: I'm like, are you sure you don't know how his
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: mind works? Be careful with to day telling him to
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: go far, because he will go far.
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: Honestly, adult swim. Really, I think they spoiled us because
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: once I got into the real TV world, I realized
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: you can't do this ship, you know. I remember I
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: had to show a Fox and we were I can't
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: remember what the what it was, but it was something
• 31:02

  Speaker 11: what I'm saying. Just comic book collecting, the whole.
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean. The anime thing is on
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: another level now. You know, shit, I don't even know
• 33:45

• 34:03
  Speaker 3: on here?
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: Alone?
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: I'm like, yo, I'm good. You traumatized.
• 34:10
  Speaker 7: I was traumatized, but asked Nate, so I I stepped back.
• 34:22
  Speaker 11: You know, I'm like old school, but I've been I've
• 34:24
  Speaker 11: been collecting, which is dope. I mean because I want
• 34:26
  Speaker 11: to I want to watch more with more black characters
• 34:29
  Speaker 11: for me, and you know what I mean. And just
• 34:32
  Speaker 11: my friend Sammy, who's who was part of producing of
• 34:36
  Speaker 11: US Afro Samurai, she just talked about. Yeah, she she
• 34:41
  Speaker 11: works with Country Role and all this other week, I
• 34:43
  Speaker 11: just did a panel with her. She's the reason why
• 34:45
  Speaker 11: I'm here. She brought me out here, and she works
• 34:47
  Speaker 11: with black animators in Japan. You know, she has a
• 34:50
  Speaker 11: whole community of black animators in Japan. And she was
• 34:53
  Speaker 11: telling me just the how difficult it is just to
• 34:57
  Speaker 11: have black people voice and make characters. Black characters are
• 35:02
  Speaker 11: voiced by white people, like ugh, Like no, I'm not
• 35:06
  Speaker 11: that's not oh the white people.
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: It's not all the white people. But what the fuck
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: are we doing here? You know?
• 35:16
  Speaker 11: Even even when you look at just animation in general,
• 35:19
  Speaker 11: because growing up on from Hannah Barbera to Walter Lance
• 35:23
  Speaker 11: to Disney all this other shit, you just find out,
• 35:26
  Speaker 11: like even in voiceover, when I'm going to voiceover, there's
• 35:29
  Speaker 11: sometimes they want you to voice. They don't think black
• 35:31
  Speaker 11: people can just change our voices. You feel, we think
• 35:35
  Speaker 11: we just are ourselves. You know, Oh that's Chris Rock
• 35:39
  Speaker 11: playing Zebra.
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: You know, they don't. They don't think you can go
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: I told you I'm not.
• 35:46
  Speaker 11: You know, they don't think you can switch your voice up,
• 35:48
  Speaker 11: which is weird.
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: They just really just you know, if you know my style, man,
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: that's what I was about to say. If ya don't,
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: Godfrey has like three thousand voices, and I don't understand.
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's like, and I've worked with a lot
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: of voiceover actors, and I work with a lot of
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: people that do impressions. This guy is hands down one
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: of the best I've ever seen in the business.
• 36:08
  Speaker 7: And the only reason, and it was the reason why
• 36:11
  Speaker 7: you saw it was because of COVID.
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: During COVID, it wasn't shipped to do.
• 36:16
  Speaker 11: And I'm and this is what's so funny is I
• 36:18

  Speaker 7: I watch him. He's so arrogant, but he knows like
• 36:27
  Speaker 7: he makes a lot of sense.
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: But he's so animate.
• 36:34
  Speaker 11: Even even when Dame's teeth popped out, he was like,
• 36:37

• 36:40
  Speaker 11: Hallm Man.

• 36:47
  Speaker 11: because you know, everybody was doing Lives and Ship.
• 36:50
  Speaker 7: So I'm watching David. He's I think he's like he's

• 51:07
  Speaker 3: Because there's a lot of people that talk about him,
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, and he does. Matter of fact,
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: he talks about the problems so much. I think he
• 51:14
  Speaker 3: got banned from like social media platforms like over twenty times,
• 51:19
  Speaker 3: you know, because he's that fearless and there's not a
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: whole lot of people today that are are fearless in
• 51:25
  Speaker 3: the way that he has, in the way that he is,
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: in the way that he presents the truth to our

  Speaker 3: every single day. So so yeah, so I want to

  Speaker 4: So Liza, thanks for coming up because I'm glad Carl

• 52:00
  Speaker 4: the black community, you give the solutions, yes, sir, And
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: that's something that a lot of us in the community
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: look for it like, you know, you always got a
• 52:09
  Speaker 4: problem with something, but where's the.
• 52:11
  Speaker 3: Solution to it, you know.
• 52:13
  Speaker 4: And I think that's something we just need to be
• 52:15
  Speaker 4: upfront and in the face. You know, you have you
• 52:18
  Speaker 4: have people, you have a very small pocket of people
• 52:20
  Speaker 4: that's willing to do that.
• 52:22
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 52:22
  Speaker 3: So thank you, number one, Thank you for that.
• 52:24
  Speaker 9: Absolutely, I'm honored. I'm honored.
• 52:27
  Speaker 14: I'll just saying, you know, I'm gonna let Carl do
• 52:29
  Speaker 14: his thing because i know he's gonna kind of lay
• 52:31
  Speaker 14: it lay it on heavy. But I'm truly honored and
• 52:36
  Speaker 14: surprised to see our community this strong in this space.
• 52:41
  Speaker 14: My first conventions my first con y'all first one, Yeah,
• 52:47
  Speaker 14: first one. And you know I've studied the grades. That's
• 52:51
  Speaker 14: all I do is study the greats. And you're right.
• 52:52
  Speaker 14: It's been about twenty times that I've been taking on
• 52:54
  Speaker 14: social media because you know, speaking to be taken off
• 52:59
  Speaker 14: after more than likely, because speaking the truth is one thing,
• 53:05
  Speaker 14: but as our brother was saying, being active against the
• 53:07
  Speaker 14: system is another. There are a lot of people who
• 53:10
  Speaker 14: speak and talk on social media, but your brother is
• 53:13
  Speaker 14: literally that in real life. Let me just help you
• 53:15
  Speaker 14: understand something. I'm on the FBI watch list. Yes too late,
• 53:20
  Speaker 14: y'all in here. They took y'all picture, so we hang
• 53:23
  Speaker 14: it out. FBI watch list, White House Disinformation doesn't list.
• 53:36
  Speaker 14: There's only twelve of us on that list, and the
• 53:38
  Speaker 14: twelfth person is also the current AHHS Secretary of the
• 53:42
  Speaker 14: United States government, so we are both on the same list.
• 53:45
  Speaker 14: Google that Disinformation doesn't the Department of Homeland Securities watch
• 53:49
  Speaker 14: list in Georgia. I don't know how that happened, and
• 53:53
  Speaker 14: on a bunch of other lists. So I haven't taken
• 53:55
  Speaker 14: off of social media by the US government, not simply
• 53:57
  Speaker 14: because the algorithm is this, or I'll posted something that
• 54:00
  Speaker 14: they didn't like. But because the information that I was
• 54:02
  Speaker 14: putting out primarily during COVID was so on point, they
• 54:06
  Speaker 14: treated myself in twelve people like we were exposing Epstein files.
• 54:12
  Speaker 14: They said, these twelve people out of the President's mouth.
• 54:15
  Speaker 14: Joe Biden, he said, these twelve people are killing people
• 54:18
  Speaker 14: with misinformation. We're suing them when the lawsuits. Young thank
• 54:23
  Speaker 14: you for the few who clapped. You don't just say
• 54:26
  Speaker 14: something like that. But we were put all over the
• 54:29
  Speaker 14: world CNNNBC. They brought in the twelve US state attorney
• 54:33
  Speaker 14: generals to the White House and they said, these people
• 54:35
  Speaker 14: need to be taken off. They brought in Sundarpachai of Google,
• 54:38
  Speaker 14: they brought in Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook, and at the
• 54:41
  Speaker 14: time they brought in Jack Dorsey of Twitter, and they say,
• 54:43
  Speaker 14: you need to remove these twelve people off of your platforms,
• 54:47
  Speaker 14: all of them. And I'm the only young black one
• 54:50
  Speaker 14: on the list. Everybody else is white. So you take
• 54:55
  Speaker 14: that how you will. But the point is they were
• 54:58
  Speaker 14: very afraid, and they still are afraid of the who
• 55:00
  Speaker 14: speak the truth. So I want you to know that
• 55:01
  Speaker 14: sometimes anime comes to life for real, fiction comes to
• 55:06
  Speaker 14: life for real. You have superheroes and anime, but there
• 55:09
  Speaker 14: are some of us who do this in real life.
• 55:12
  Speaker 3: So he's like, well, yes, first, yeah, but he is
• 55:19
  Speaker 3: like he's like an older Hughey, you know what I'm saying,
• 55:25
  Speaker 3: he grew up. It would be Reason, but no, this
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: is so Reason. And I, for those of you who
• 55:33
  Speaker 3: don't know, we have been developing a really really special
• 55:36
  Speaker 3: project together Reza and Marsh and Blueberry and my wife
• 55:40
  Speaker 3: and I. I don't know, we didn't get the proper announced.
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: I didn't I didn't properly introduce my wife. But so
• 55:47
  Speaker 3: Love is is the other half of me. She's a
• 55:50
  Speaker 3: co founder of Marsh and Blueberry. She runs Love. Love
• 55:55
  Speaker 3: Is no small potatoes. This sister. This sister, yes she
• 55:59
  Speaker 3: knows some things. She actually runs the studio. I just
• 56:03
  Speaker 3: draw all the pictures and say funny shit, but like
• 56:06
  Speaker 3: she's the one that's actually doing the day to day.
• 56:08
  Speaker 3: And we collaborated with Resa Islam on this really really
• 56:11
  Speaker 3: special project. So Reason came to the house and we met.
• 56:15
  Speaker 3: You didn't tell me about all the list of you
• 56:16
  Speaker 3: on before we started developing this cartoon. But I'm in
• 56:21
  Speaker 3: with both feet now.
• 56:24
  Speaker 14: Now.
• 56:24
  Speaker 3: So yeah, But so we sat down and and we
• 56:30
  Speaker 3: just started talking about what is missing right now on
• 56:33
  Speaker 3: TV and the reason why people feel like there's such
• 56:37
  Speaker 3: a void since The Boondocks went away, and what that
• 56:40
  Speaker 3: show represented, what it meant, but also Black Dynamite. I
• 56:43
  Speaker 3: think I think Black Dynamite doesn't maybe not doesn't get
• 56:46
  Speaker 3: as much you know, prop says the Boondocks. But I
• 56:49
  Speaker 3: do feel like we fearlessly attacked a lot of social comments.
• 56:53
  Speaker 3: I mean, you know, a lot of things ills in
• 56:55
  Speaker 3: this in our community and our society, and we spoke
• 56:58
  Speaker 3: a lot of really uh dangerous truths you know in
• 57:04
  Speaker 3: the show, but we did it in a funny way
• 57:06
  Speaker 3: so that we can laugh instead of cry, and right
• 57:09
  Speaker 3: now we kind of need that more than ever. Right So,
• 57:13
  Speaker 3: we started developing this series around Resa as basically like
• 57:18
  Speaker 3: the black Neo of this generation's matrix.
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: But I have to say we were really surprised to
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: see what he liked as well, because we didn't you.
• 57:26
  Speaker 3: Know, We're like, yeah, we were nervous. We were nervous,
• 57:29
  Speaker 3: you know, like Nigga around Reason. You know what I'm saying.
• 57:35
  Speaker 3: You know, he's like, man, I'm from Compton. I'm like okay,
• 57:39
  Speaker 3: oh so so yeah, so we we just started. We
• 57:44
  Speaker 3: started working. We started working on this idea of taking
• 57:47
  Speaker 3: his real life as a supers as he told you,
• 57:51
  Speaker 3: he's really living his life and developing the show around
• 57:54
  Speaker 3: it that could be funny, satirical and have loads of
• 57:56
  Speaker 3: social commentary. So the idea just to give you like
• 57:59
  Speaker 3: a s premise. So the idea is that Reason discovers
• 58:04
  Speaker 3: that the projects are actually a government project and they
• 58:08
  Speaker 3: are running mind control experiments and all other types of Jennies.
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: And actually they clone Tyrone was inspired by black Dynamite.
• 58:24
  Speaker 3: In fact, yes you know no and and by the way, yeah,
• 58:31
  Speaker 3: and and Stephen loved one of the producers of the
• 58:34
  Speaker 3: part of Marshall Blueberry and we and we're all the
• 58:37
  Speaker 3: family and shout out the Duell's, you know, the director
• 58:39
  Speaker 3: and we're all the family. But the but the mission
• 58:41
  Speaker 3: is the same, like we want to we want to
• 58:43
  Speaker 3: enlighten people, we want to we want to speak these truths,
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: but we also want to make people laugh. And so
• 58:49
  Speaker 3: we so we took it a step further, right, and
• 58:51
  Speaker 3: we started getting into like episode ideas, right and playing
• 58:55
  Speaker 3: with these conspiracies, especially nowadays because we're living in the
• 58:58
  Speaker 3: world now where the government just admitted the aliens are real.
• 59:01
  Speaker 3: I mean they got you got billionaires eating babies, you
• 59:03
  Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, You got diddy parties. It's all
• 59:06
  Speaker 3: kind of crazy shit going on. So, so we started
• 59:12
  Speaker 3: developing this show, right, and I just want to give you,
• 59:14
  Speaker 3: like a little a little taste of what this show
• 59:16
  Speaker 3: is before I show you what we're working on. So
• 59:19
  Speaker 3: I started looking at at these conspiracies that are that
• 59:22
  Speaker 3: are going on, and I was thinking, like, the show
• 59:25
  Speaker 3: needs to be like Black Twitter meets Black Mirror, right, So,
• 59:31
  Speaker 3: like all these conspiracies that we talk about on Black Twitter,
• 59:34
  Speaker 3: but taking to the next level with the storytelling that
• 59:37
  Speaker 3: we can use with animation. And and so we had
• 59:40
  Speaker 3: episodes like we got we got this episode. You know
• 59:43
  Speaker 3: how the smoke detector is always going off in the
• 59:45
  Speaker 3: background in Nigga's videos, So so reasons character in the
• 59:50
  Speaker 3: show discovers that every time that that smoke detective batteries
• 59:54
  Speaker 3: going off, niggas start beefing with each other. Right, So
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 3: he realizes that there's some frequency in these smoke You
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 3: don't want to smoke. You don't want to get smoke, right, right,
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 3: and and how come? How come what's going on? At
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 3: these waffle houses. You know what I'm saying, Like at
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 3: two o'clock in the morning, there's something in this serrup.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 3: So there's like nano technology that the shadow government is
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 3: putting into the serrup that causes niggas to fight the cooks.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 3: So it's like, how come white people don't use wash
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 3: cloths the same ones that they sell in our communities.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 3: It's like that kind of stuff, you know. So no, no,
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 3: we're going there, y'are So we're going all the way
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 3: there all the way. He was okay with all of this.
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: So I'm like, you shure, yeah.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 3: Absolutely, so what right? So So, anyway, so we were
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: thinking about if we pitched it to a network, they
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 3: would say hell no, right, so we were trying to think, well,
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 3: how do we only because of the risk, right, like
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 3: we were talking about earlier, so we were thinking of
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 3: how do we minimize the risk. So we have to
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 3: do this independently, right, So thank you. So so Reza,
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 3: he took a chance on us as a as a
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 3: new black animation studio that has no backing, right with
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 3: getting this out the mud, he took a chance on us.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 3: We collaborated on this project and the goal was to
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 3: produce a short film that could also work as a
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 3: proof of concept or a pilot for a TV series.
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 3: So the short film just to just we're gonna show,
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 3: We're gonna show you. It's in this early early it's
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 3: an anematic and if for those of you who don't
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 3: know what animatic is, it is basically a storyboard. You know,
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 3: it's a storyboard with with voiceover and some sound effects
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 3: of music. But it's really rough. But the premise of
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 3: the short film is, are you guys familiar with a
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 3: quiet place the movie? So this is a parody of
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 3: a quiet place. We're calling it Nigga Hush, so basically
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 3: so basically, So the idea is that the shadow government
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 3: has bio engineered these creatures that are taking black people
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 3: out when they say the N word because they're mad
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 3: that they can't use it. And Resa has the duty
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 3: of stopping the community from using the N word, which
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 3: is impossible. It's so good. So so yeah, so we
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 3: want to show you. Like I said, it's in the
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 3: early stages, but exclusive.
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: Yes, we really don't show things this early and this raw,
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: but we really want to show something to you, to
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: you guys, and Resa wanted to be here and really presented.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: So we're doing this grassroots, you know, and we just
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: wanted you. We hope you guys can appreciate it. We
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: have some really interesting talent, should we say who afterwards?

• 1:03:29

  Speaker 3: Exclusive exclusive.
• 1:03:50

• 1:14:54
  Speaker 22: I have a question for love Happy Women's History Month.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I wanted to ask you, as COO and the.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 22: Co founder of Marsian Blueberry, like, how does a black
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 22: woman get into this field? Like how do you navigate that?
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 22: How do you build something from scratch? And how do
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 22: you bring people along along along the way along the journey.
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: That's a good question because it is a very closed
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: boys club, you know. And that's Carl has been very
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 1: helpful with me, like even getting in front of the
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 1: camera because I'm like, I hide in the back. I'm
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 1: fine with doing just everything in the back. But He's like, no,
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 1: you need to be seen more because black women need
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 1: to see this. And I needed to see this, you know,
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 1: honestly I did because I didn't realize there were so
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 1: many women or you know that we're interested in animation.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 1: I found out that I think seventy of animation schools
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 1: are filled with women. Wow, but they only hired three
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 1: percent in the industry. And you can imagine the ratio
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: of black women, you know, what I'm saying is even
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: probably a half.
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 3: A percent of a percent, you know.
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 1: So you know, it's really important for you know, more
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 1: black women to be seen in this in this industry,
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: you know. So I'm trying my best because I get anxiety,
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 1: I get nervous. I don't like being in the cameras.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 1: But I'm trying my best to like show myself. But
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 1: you know, the thing is, Carl makes this easy for
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 1: me because I started in the music business, but I've
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 1: always had a love for animation. I'm always a nerd.
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 1: He's like, you're the biggest nerd I know, Like you
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 1: love video games, You're Harry Potter fan, You're huffle Pup,
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 1: huffle pop. So He's like, this, you produce stuff. This
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 1: is the right. And I have to say, I have
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 1: been so happy in this medium. This has fulfilled me
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 1: so much, just seeing everything come to life, making these
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 1: things happen, and doing it in an authentic voice that
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 1: we're doing it in. So it makes it a lot
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 1: more easy. It makes it a lot easier to be
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 1: able to work on these type of projects with Reza.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 1: You know, I have to always remind them, Hey, we
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 1: need a woman represent it. You know what I'm saying.
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: We need this because I do. I'm always speaking up
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 1: talking about that too. You know, we can't say too
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 1: much about it, but we do have our Mega Styllium.
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 1: You know, Carol is working with Mega Stallion. And when
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 1: I tell you, girl power all the way, we are
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 1: going to be so happy because we're finally going to
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 1: be represented in anime. You call it what you want.
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: You don't want to call it anime because it's black,
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 1: But it's the same people that do all the other animes.
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 1: What's working on this but in an anime form and
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 1: just seeing us be authentic take black women and just badasses.
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 1: So I'm always working on making sure we're represented. That's
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 1: my biggest thing I will say in hiring, in hiring
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 1: and hiring, like you.
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 3: Know, I mean, like, I know you made the joke
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 3: about dropping the bomb in the building all the black people,
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 3: and I think Chase Conley said that was one of
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 3: a character designer on Black Dynamite. But if we don't
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 3: do it, who else is going to do it? You
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 3: know what I mean? So like we have to work
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 3: with each other, we have to collaborate and not even
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 3: just higher, but we have to partner with each other,
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 3: collaborate with each other. I mean, that's what it's about,
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 3: because especially right now because as we see, nobody is
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 3: checking for us. There's nobody coming for us but us.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 3: So this is really really important, more so for our women,
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean, because it's even tougher, especially
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 3: in this business.
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and we need y'all support every time. That's why
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: we're here. Like we love blurred cons, we love black
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 1: nerd spaces so much because this is our audience. You know,
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 1: we love y'all and we really appreciate. I'm mad that
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 1: I didn't have this when I was younger, because this
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: is y'all are my people. I feel seen.
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell you something Love. If y'all don't know,
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 3: y'all need to look this system.
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 4: She is when they say behind every man is a
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 4: great woman, she's the front and center.
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 3: Seriously, you need to check out Love.
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 7: The reason why Carl has my number now, Yes.
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 3: We got this. One's for Carl Jones. If Black Dynamite
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 3: was continue for season three, what would it entail? Where
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 3: you at right here? Okay, okay, all right?
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 14: If Black Dynamite was continued, what wouldn't what would it?
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 3: Entail man? So let me tell you we got two
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 3: more seasons of Black Dynamite. Episode ideas, what episode ideas?
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 3: I love that, and so we pitched it. So here's
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 3: the thing. The analytics are actually really good right now.
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 3: The Boondogs and the Black and Black Dynamite are performing
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 3: really well on the stream because I got we know
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 3: some people at Adults whom they told us like this,
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 3: the numbers are still really good. So we went in
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 3: and we we pitched the show to HBO Max. We
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 3: pitched two seasons worth of material and a movie we had.
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 3: We had a movie that that we wrote called it
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 3: was called Escape from Slave Island? Right where what? Where is? Where?
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 12: This is this?
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 3: There's a basically like, there's a black guy that got
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 3: washed upon the shores of Los Angeles where shacks on
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 3: and Black Dynamite discovers that slavery is still taking place
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 3: on an island and it's become like a resort for
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 3: these rich white billionaires that still wasn't America.
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 7: It's like AO, that's like, is it like Enter the
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 7: Dragon type ship?
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 3: No, it's more it's more like a vacation spot. Oh well,
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 3: for Black Dynamite. Yeah, Black Dynamite has to go undercover
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 3: as a slave to freedom, you know what I'm saying.
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 3: So that that was that was the That was the
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 3: movie premise, and then we had two seasons worth of material. Man,
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 3: I'm trying to remember some of them. Oh. We we
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 3: had this one episode I did where uh so it's
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 3: supposed to be the invention of the Jerry curl right.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 3: So basically there was there was a guy, a white
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 3: guy named Jerry that worked at a chemical plant and
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 3: he came home from work early one day and caught
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 3: his wife in bed with a black man, and from
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 3: that moment he developed this chemical that he put into
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 3: the Jerry Curw Activator that would change black people into
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 3: niggas with attitudes.
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 7: Wow.
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 3: Wow, only Carl.
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 5: Like that.
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 7: But that's not that's not far fast, that's the ship
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 7: like that.
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 1: That's the funniest thing about Carl like and and these
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 1: these studios don't really understand he's always thinking, because you know,
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 1: he's always thinking so far that's not like he had
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 1: an episode with it was it?
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 4: For what was that?
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 1: For the Kanye? Oh, for Bubble Goose. There was something
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 1: he was doing with adult swim and he had this
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 1: idea with Kanye basically going going this was what year
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 1: was this though?
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 3: This is this is right after Black Dynamite ended because
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 3: they can't. So Black Dynamite was canceled. I was told
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 3: it was I shouldn't say. I was told it was saying.
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 3: I was told it was too sophisticated for their audience.
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 7: Get the funk out of here. This is the ship
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 7: they do.
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 3: Man, it's insane. Yes, my exactly. Yeah. So so but
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 3: they were like, but we still want to work with you.
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 3: What else you got? And so I had this this
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 3: this character that been with me for a long time.
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 3: It was it was a bubble. It was a goose
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 3: with a bubble goose coat, and he had a best
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 3: friend that was a juice bottle. And they were like, yes,
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 3: that's the kind of fun we like. So so it's
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 3: almost I pitched it almost like I don't know. I
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 3: was just trying to see you test the waters. And
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 3: so I rode a pilot where the Bubble gooseballers. They
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 3: were the group of friends. They were in a sneaker
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 3: line to get the new Yeezy's, but the line was
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 3: so long they had to take a time machine so
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 3: they could get to the front of the line, but
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 3: they went too far into the future and discovered that
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 3: Kanye West was running the entire world and he was
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 3: cutting off people's feet that weren't wearing yeezys. He he
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 3: had TMG in a concentration camp, and the only way
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 3: they could get to Kanye's layer was through Kim Kardashian's ass.
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 3: It was crazy. So it was all kind of basketball
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 3: players in there.
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 7: But so this is not far fetched.
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 1: No, that's that's the thing.
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 7: Though Kanye would cut got we.
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 1: Realized Kanye was gonna run for president. This is this
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 1: is before all of that. So imagine if you would
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 1: have did that and then Kanye started actually here.
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 3: So that's the thing. So the network they said, we
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 3: don't think Kanye is really relevant right now.
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 1: Kanye is not relevant right now?
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 3: Cut to today. We gotta, we gotta, we got a
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 3: few more minutes. But do we have nowhere? It's fun Yeah,
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 3: well real quick, can't you say one thing real quick?
