I I just want to take some time to thank the cast and crew on WMCJ. Without every single person bringing their A game none of this would be possible. Sinqua, Jack, Teyana, Laura, Myles, Vince, that shit was fun as fuck and I appreciate y’all for trusting my vision. Our cinematographer Maddox Upshaw put together one the most phenomenal camera departments I’ve ever experienced. I learned so much from y’all day and day out, special shout out to @jusbez2 @paulinecamera and @staychingon! Everyone from hair all the way to make up to locations to wardrobe and everyone in between felt like hanging out with family every single day, felt like summer camp. You guys are all going to be a hard act to follow. Can’t wait to do it again!
1. One of the many Jack and Sinqua shootouts in between takes.
2. Had to bring out the @solefolks ball in Leimert
3. The real MVP’s Paul Hall (producer) and Maddox Upshaw (cinematographer).
4. The demographic that WMCJ is actually for! 😅
5. Who taught Vince and Myles how to squabble?!
6. Me throwing a lob to Hamilton in between takes.
7. Dream come true working with queen Teyana.
8. Christopher Columbus actually found some bounce! (Sidebar contrary to unpopular belief we didn’t use Jack’s stunt double at all.) Los Angeles, California

Sat down with Ebro In The Morning on Hot 97 in New York City, we talked about it all! My favorite radio show, I watch this shit religiously. This damn near equivalent to me being on Oprah man 😅.

Spent some time with the good people at @adcouncil to create this PSA to raise awareness for Black and Brown men across the world. Therapy is something I’m a big proponent of and I hope this spot encourages those of us in need to listen to their minds and take that first step. Special thanks to everyone involved @xiaolongdp @brendangarrett_ @prettybirdpic @reconciliation #adcouncil #mentalhealthawareness
Fun new spot I directed for @mailchimp just dropped! @romano_stunts and I someway managed to create a boulder made out of humans and other random objects and it came out HELLA dope. Shoutout to everyone involved @prettybirdpic @christopher.c.ripley @millchannel @bethanybankston @reconciliation and special thanks to all the actors for thuggin it out in those awkward positions for 3 days! 😅 #mailchimp #clustomer
Not many creatives have the opportunity to come out with two films in one year but with remakes of cult classics like White Men Can’t Jump and House Party but today’s guest, Calmatic (@calmatic), did just that. Calmatic proudly grew up as your quintessential Black nerd, creating flyers, making beats, designing album covers and capturing memorable moments for LA’s finest. Go on and hit play as dive into this Grammy award winning director’s career journey and his approach language, references and representation.

Born and raised in the City of the Champions. Literally. Lakers 4 life. Special thanks to the @lakers @nikebasketball @nba and @phrshly_blessed for allowing me to be a part of this. S/o @milli4really and @blessescro for the assist. Inglewood, California
One of my favorite parts of making a movie is working on the score. It’s my opportunity to tap in to my musical side and work with extremely talented musicians. I be feeling like a kid in a candy store, like I’m a rapper working on an album. Last week I got to speak at the Grammy Museum with Oak Felder who provided the score for White Men Can’t Jump and a long time homie, the legendary Terrace Martin. We talked about making the transition from music to film. So many gems dropped and flowers given. S/o to @itsthecq and @grammymuseum for giving us space to share our journeys.
