Lives update

Hey everyone,

So my pc is in the shop and had been acting funny for a while which should have been a red flag. Pray it recovers my data i had some important stuff on it including last week's live with Khadija and some other things. Hopefully I'll have it back next week. In the meantime I'm working around things and should have that live and last week's live updated soon. Sorry for the d...

What's a better caption for this thumbnail?

If you've watched this video you know that this painting has an important role in the video at the end. This caption seems to be too confusing though. Any thoughts on what to change it too?

The Commodification of Black Athletes

New video up yall!

This was one of those rough productions cause i had some new tech.  Let me know if there are any glitches in it.

F.D

Reacting to Your Video Essays Up!

Last video of the year yall!  Gonna enjoy the break.  See yall in January.

Break Bread

Here it is!

This was pretty ambitious for me and took months to bring together.  I hope it lives up to my own hype.  There will be a few very minor differences (mostly mistakes I caught after the fact) between this and the nebula and main YouTube versions. But they're so small I really didn't want to make you guys keep waiting. (Rendering can take hours and you would be waiting ...

New set up?

Trying a new set up for at least part of the next video. Nebula folks have hooked me up with a new mic. I invested in some new lights. And I stole my kids blankets to create a sound wall😅.

Either way recording a video I've been producing for months now. I think it will be a big deal and one of my best yet!

None of this is possible without yall so this behind the scenes is a bit...

Love and Basketball (slightly less butchered version)

Hey yall,

I finally got the love and basketball video to drop. Unfortunately I could not get a completely un butchered version of the video to be watchable on YouTube.  This is the best version of it that you will find outside of Nebula.  I'm making it free to all of you as a thank you for the support.

F.D

General update (changes coming)

Well guys today is my last day working my normal job and going forward I will be focusing full-time on content creation! 

This will mean a few changes.  The first big one will be announced in the Dave Chapelle video, of which you will get an extended version hopefully by tomorrow night.  Once this change occurs, it will signal some coming minor changes to the Patreon.  ...

What happened to Kanye pt 2

Hey guys! 

I finally got it done.  Hope you like it.  This version has a few less glitches to get past copyright but I still had a hard time to get it even visible because youtube is so draconian.

But it's here!

Thanks to everyone for your support!

More on Allies

Hey everyone, sorry for the lateness! I’m working hard on what will likely be a long Kanye video which may also not make it out on time… I’m also preparing another big video at the same time so yeah.

That said, Allies!

This video came from an idea that I had in my head for a while, which was just looking at all the ways in which media really gives us a crappy understanding of ...

Discord update

Good morning everyone,

Just a quick update on the Discord. I've finally joined a few Discord boards, and I kind of want to take a bit more time feeling it out before I start one.  I'm trying to see how other folks boards are running before I get to far ahead in my own.

I'll be revisiting this in the future but for now that's on hold.  I apologize to anyone that ...

New vid up for $10 patrons

New video is up with my first sponsor!  The links needed won't be here until I get the final clearance from them, but please check back to sign up for the event if you're interested.

Help me pick a thumbnail

Should I go with bright colors "YouTube" style or dramatic Khaleesi image?

General update/touch base

Hey everyone!

First and foremost welcome to the many of you that are new.  I have received an overwhelming amount of love and attention recently and I just haven't had time to really sit and respond to everyone or fully welcome people.

So WELCOME!

This patreon grew from a rag tag group to a larger community pretty quickly and I feel like I want to get people's input on wh...

"I don't Dream of Labor" Blog

I don’t dream of labor blog.

It may surprise you guys but I wasn’t very happy with this video. I won’t say that I take myself too seriously as an “artist” or whatever, but I do feel like there’s a creative vision and overall level of quality that I want in all of my work and this didn’t fully meet it from my perspective.

I don’t know how pretentious this is going to ...
