What about Antoine Fuqua? He's ADOS employs ADOS actors that are well known.
:jbhmm:

My point was - I'm not going to put Brad Pitt over Tyler in terms of Black America contributions. Tyler also helps new talent enter in to all fields of entertainment -- in front and behind the scenes.

Is he calling people ethnic slurs? Is he calling them out their names? Saying they will never be nothing. No. All of his movies are for Black church folks.

The truth is -- Black America is diverse. shyt, in Madea's movies -- I relate and know every damn character depicted in one way or another. Everyone in Tylers movies are not one way. It's facets of Black families - the professional to cousin struggling with addiction.

But, go off.

I don't need to "go off" when I just responded to you with facts. I just think it's hypocritical as fuk :yeshrug:
(Lowered expectations and lack of demands for accountability in programming).
Which seems to be a pattern that I'm not rocking with regardless of the source.

You are entitled to your opinion.

Thanks.
Right, as you are.
But we can't make demands for higher expectations, if we're not putting the energy into building a better media platform for ourselves with content that is created for us, by us. This settling for status quo is the reason why the majority of the images that we see are Love and Hip Hop, Housewives, Mixshyt, Black-ish, Soap Opera-ish and rarely see other multidimensional characters, giving the greenlight for whites to think they can align or contribute to black spaces, trying to tell us about our experiences.

If I didn't know this was from his show, I would have thought the same
Right - if I would have just seen that as a standalone without this thread or knowing the show; I would have thought I stumbled on a Skinemax or Hotime after dark adult tv series "special" like "Zane's: The Jumpoff" or some shyt. In fact, Zane's was actually better quality and more engaging. Both black and female leads were a doctor, lawyer, book author, executives and business owners. Kind of embarrassing in comparison when a skin flick had more levels to it than some of Tyler Perry's shows. One of the main actors from a Zane flick went on to star in Snowfall which is highly rated. Do the math.

They aren’t a list actors but He did open up new doors for them that wouldn’t have been there if it wasn’t for his plays or movie
:yeshrug:

Side note I saw David man at sprouts in his Lamborghini truck

I'm sure you can find some porn producers and pharmaceutical reps driving around in more expensive cars too :yeshrug:

my point is that Spike lee launched the careers of bill nunn, isaiah washington, anthony mackie, malcolm lee

people who have had careers out there...TP can't say this :francis:

We are talking like grown men. His shows are ass and we all agree on that, I thought the topic was about how trash this show was? You’re dabbling into the territory of downplaying him putting people on, you can have that
