Issa Rae’s Emmy Winning Series: Insecure Official Thread
- Thread starter Milk N Cookies
- Start date
yeah, I never saw Awkward Black Girl but brehs on here made it sound like it was just a anti black male swirl fest so I wrote off Issa when Insecure was announced. But when Insecure dropped it was a DAMN good show and spoke directly to my/our generation where everyone got smoke because nobody is perfect.
Issa is a Goddess
Not gonna lie, the last season of the chi wasn’t that great. I was excited because my homey was an extra on the first episode back &I love everything Chicago about that show, but the guest stars are starting to make it feel like empire...
honestly I could make it through like 3 episodes in the first season. I'm not a 'street cat' but the show was too fairy tale for me. I can see how people like it I guess but it wasn't grounded in reality nor entertaining enough to combat that (i.e. the wire got farfetched at times but the story and characters were so good you ignored it).
. The greek kingpin storyline too

I get frustrated when our community artificially props up sub-par talent as if that's all we got and we should just be happy we're here.
We've got plenty of legit talent like Issa, the industry just needs to adapt to new ways of finding it (like youtube), and the mediocre talent needs to be moved aside or be forced to step their game up.
Not sure if I'm all that interested in Rap shyt. I'm trying to imagine it, and all I really picture is the awkward rap segments and studio sessions with Daniel from Insecure expanded into an entire series, except it'll be more idk...thottish I guess. Wap meets Broken p*ssy 
Willing to at least give it an episode cuz I like Issa but I could see myself dropping it quick if it's basically what my imagination is rendering.
I'm personally more excited to see if they are going to order the hip hop wrestling show she is doing with The Rock. That sounds more up my alley

Issa has a new bigger production company called Hoo-Rae & a lot more in the works with HBO!! Insecure is coming to an end, but we have so much more coming from her!!

From the creators of "Living Single"
and the executive producer of Dear white peoplehow does Amber west stay getting roles? She plays the same person in everything I see her in. On top of that, I get the feeling the only time she be around black people is when she's onset
