Creed got great reviews and was incredibly directed. Nothing for Michael b Jordan and nothing for Ryan Coogler. It's bullshyt.
Only #tsc brehs will appreciate this, but your choice of words to use "stroke" made me chcukle and think of this.
We need tiny lister to run up at the Oscars and do the same thing

Dear White folk; thus is why we [had] BET. We're ignored.
Dear Black folk; we really think Straight Outta Compton deserved an Academy Award? My man Jason, who played Eazy-E, media ked it though.

It's not about starting our own shyt, there's not enough blacks putting out movies for that to even matter. It's about having more prestigious black writers/directors.
Straight outta Compton should not have gotten a best picture nominee, maybe creed but def not straight outta Compton.
Beast of no nation was the best film of the year bar none.

I'd rather we had our own media companies, our own infrastructure, and award ourselves for our hard work.
Why beg the old, white, establishment academy for this shyt?

Different era now. Who the fukk needs a network when you have most people online viewing content.Did you see what they tried to do to Cosby for trying to buy NBC?
Netflix is destroying television and the only they they have left really are sports and a handful of shows. Imagine if Netflix had a deal with NFL and NBA.
That shows you right there how little we need their networks.
