This is the shyt I was raised on. In Living Color, Ice Cube True to the Game video, Drop Squad, Spike Lee movies shyt even Carlton from Fresh Prince.

I had white friends but I knew being a "sellout" was the worst thing a black person could be...

They fell off hard during the 4th season

Fox was known for fukkin over black shows

There was a rumor Season 3 was supposed to be the season Shawn W had next up to carry the show but Foxx was CLEARLY better, so they some kind of beef. That's why Seasons 4 and on Shawn was kinda here and there :lupe:

I think it was Fox trying to fukk the Wayans out of money. Basically were trying to stop them from going into syndication at the time so they were playing repeats instead of letting them have new episodes during the fourth season when it actually aired. I think all the Wayan's officially dipped after that season.
