Exactly, they pushed his character the most.
On a seperate note, if i could only find a girl like Nola who is so into film like me
. My girl has disgustin taste in both film and television.
Fat Joe did a good job!

I thought Jamie was the best male character, even though he was super corny at times. I put his age at late 30's early 40's given the age of his kid and his position at his firm.
Probably one of the best depictions of White collar Black folks I've seen in a minute. His ex's c00nery was very real, I've had middle class Black lawyers say some off the wall shyt about poor Black folks while still maintaining an ironic sense of Black pride.

I think a big part of why he was the best character is because he was the closest to Spike's age and Spike had a better understanding of his type. Seems like Spike was a bit out of his element handling the younger millennial characters because a lot of their dialogue sounded like twitter threads while Jamie and his wife felt the most realistic and natural
This show is great.
I see why some dusty NY nikkas would have a problem with this show.
Cutting to close to home, am I right brehs?
I don't understand why the albums needs to be shown, is that some deal Spike has with the record companies or some shyt?
Ol girl is beautiful, I hope she doesn't wear the nose ring through out the show, I fukken hate that shyt.

His wife said outright he's 40 years old. Also, Nora herself said she's 27. But I agree Jamie is the best, most rounded, character. Off of 1st glance, you would of assumed he was some square ass uncle Tom that cannot identify his own blackness. But the truth is that this was a nikka from the streets that made it, and STILL HAVE TIES with the street. However, once he made it, he got married to a woman who he thought fit his status and with that changed a part of himself that he's ashamed of. I think he's attracted to Nora because she's the woman that liberates him, but his fear of not going out like his own father who left him is why he still in that dead end marriage. His wife is a total bytch... I hate he's stuck in that situation for the sake of his own son.

I think Spike Lee wanted to pay homage and give these artists their due, especially with a show that is DEDICATED to art in all forms.
I think Spike Lee only wrote the 1st and last episode, with that said... I think who he chose as Mars is a miss, who would be the ONLY one that's technically still within the millennial generation (Nora can be argued to be older). Spike was trying to find someone who fit his own personality and a millennial version of Mars Blackmon IS NOT compatible at all. I mean imagine going from "Is it the SHOES" to "WHAT ARE THOSE"?
