I just love that people are no longer begging and relying on TV networks to commission and air their TV projects. Investing in your own projects and then sharing them online is definitely the way forward.
Keep up the work everyone involved in other black British online shows, Venus Vs Mars, Brothers With No Game, Meet The Adebanjos and All About The McKenzies.
If we as a people want change then we need to create our own projects and brands. There is no point in looking to others to bring about that change for us.

ROTHSCHILD HEIRESS’ MARRIAGE ENDS AFTER ALLEGED AFFAIR WITH RAPPER JAY ELECTRONICA
Jay Electronica
The Daily Mail reports that the marriage of Rothschild heiress Kate Goldsmithis in trouble after her alleged affair with US rapper Jay Electronica.
Kate who is married to the multi-millionaire son (Ben Goldsmith) of the late financier and tycoon Jimmy Goldsmith apparently embarked on a passionate affair with Jay Electronica after he became one of her clients.
The rapper who is signed to Jay-Z’s Roc Nation label has also moved to London.
Ben and Kate Goldsmith
A “friend” disclosed to the Mail,
Ben is heartbroken, devastated and thoroughly miserable. He suspected Kate was cheating on him because she has been behaving increasingly erratically for some time.
‘She is obsessed with this chap called Jay Electronica who is one of her clients. She is always on the phone to him and out with him until four or five in the morning most nights. Sometimes she even stays with him.
‘Ben was paranoid about their friendship months ago, but when he confronted her about an affair earlier this year she denied it.
‘Then last week he found a series of texts and email messages. They were very intense messages planning sexual liaisons.’

Jay Electronica and Rothschild heiress Kate Goldsmith…. this is just bizarre.
I thought Electronica was still with Erykah Badu and I had no idea he was living in the ultra posh and rich Knightsbridge/Sloane Square area.
Well… when Jay-Z has your debut album sitting on a shelf gathering dust with no sign of a release date and all else fails hook up with a married member from one of the wealthiest families in the country and just hope for the best.

QUOTE OF THE DAY: IDRIS ELBA
“I’m so bored of answering that. Are there differences between black actors’ opportunities and white actors’ opportunities? Yes, there are. It’s been said. I’d rather a young black actor read about success as opposed to how tough it was. I get these roles because I can act and that’s it. Hopefully that’s it. The less I talk about being black, the better.
JUMP OFF TV UK (DEBATE) – CAN ONE PERSON REPRESENT AN ENTIRE SOCIAL GROUP?
With Choice FM Breakfast show host/comedian Kojo as a special guest, the debaters discuss the process of choosing personnel to be on debate show’s such as BBC 3′s Free Speech.
Points raised during this debate…
- If you agree with someone does that mean they represent you?
- Do you have to be elected before you represent a community or group?
- Is there pressure to represent everyone who shows support?
- Is it bad to automatically side with someone who you think looks like you?

Your thoughts please….

“I’m a f**ked up nigga”
UK artists really need to stop “following fashion” and calling themselves “niggas/niggers (same word same meaning)” in their verses.
…
Several months ago a UK artist who often refers to himself as a “nigga” in his verses was left deeply offended when a Caucasian fan called him the “realist nigga”. The artist then replied “Don’t call me a nigga again”.
I laughed.
Anyway your thoughts please. Hit or Miss?
