Tommy From POWER May Be Getting His Own Show. (VIDEO) of Tommy’s Journey via @lisafordblog
Of course Tommy finished the show POWER (Starz) alive because, well, that’s what the whole world wanted. Following the jaw-dropping last episode, which honed in on Tommy’s (played by Joseph Sikora) backstory, the audience was able to connect with this character by learning his true motivation…to be loved and accepted by his mother (or by anybody at this point). Tommy remained loyal to the streets throughout all of the seasons of Power, he never snitched on any of his conrads, and remained a powerful one-man army that kept him alive. Check out Tommy’s journey below – Metro.co.uk caught up with Joseph Sikora to discuss what we can expect from the drama…

The Last Black Man in San Francisco – (Movie Review & Trailer) Have you seen it yet?
I highly recommend that you watch The Last Black Man in San Francisco on Netflix. This independent drama focuses on the effects of gentrification in the area and I must admit, watching this movie was surreal considering that San Francisco is my 2nd home and I got to see it through the lens of a struggling black man desperately trying to reclaim a Victorian home that his grandfather built. I often travel to the rich historic city to marvel in it’s beauty with it’s unique architecture and epic oceanfront/mountain front hiking trails. And after viewing the film, it mirrored a mix of understatedly beautiful aesthetics (including some extraordinary cinematography of the…

‘Mulan’ Trailer: Live-Action 2020 Version Is Kick Ass & Resembles the Animated Film
I have to admit that i have watched Mulan 1998, the animated film at least a hundred times, so I am truly looking forward to to this live action version dropping March 27, 2020. in.Askmen, “The similarities between the animated movie and the live-action version severe most ties (mid way through the trailer). From training to become one of the men in the Emperor’s army to fighting Xian Lang in hand to hand combat, Mulan changes the definition of bringing honour to a family and the empire. The action pieces look epic, to say the least. From the surface, Bori Khan looks like the main antagonist of the movie, but…

QUEEN & SLIM (Official Trailer 2) – Watch It Now!
Through the title characters, (who are actually unnamed until the last moments of the film) Lena Waithe manages to illuminate the complexities and vastness of the Black experience, while zeroing in on two very specific people. Jodie Turner-Smith is mesmerizing as a buttoned-up, high achieving defense attorney who’s led by an intense desire for justice. Daniel Kaluuya is flawless as Slim. He is more easy-going, and doesn’t expect too much from anyone. He relishes the simple things in life like faith and family and accepts the way things are without much thought given to how they should be. – Read more at the grio

G-EAZY ft. Gunna – “I Wanna Rock” (Official Video)
All I can say about G-EAZY’S new hit… is that he drops some serious bars. That shot at Halsey 💀 “ No Limit all I got is Me, Myself, and I, when I said it was her & I that shit was a lie .” Ok G-Eazy, we hear ya! This beat does remind me of Venom by Eminem but I love the raw unfiltered lyrics. Even the chorus has a raw sentiment, a G-Eazy reply to the seemingly large amount of hate he seems to generally get. “If you feel better you can hate me then!” Check out the video below. Lisa Ford’s crime novella, South Beach Suicide, on…

ROYCE 5’9 – “Black Savage” ft. Sy Ari Da Kid, White Gold, CyHi The Prynce & T.I. (Official Video)
Before you ask, the sample song in Royce da 5’9′s banger is Kothbiro by Ayub Ogada from Kenya. The sample says the rain is coming, bring the cattle back home….that’s a language from the Luo Tribe in Kenya. Black Savage is so inspiring. I’m proud of this. My bottom line review of Royce’s Black Savage? Royce killed this, point blank. CyHi had something to say, and TI can literally read a dictionary to me and I’ll be down with it. Sick production, Royce, sick verse, Royce, sick features. The video is visually stunning. And I can’t get enough of this powerful lyrical content. Check out the video below. (I still…

“Crawl” (Trailer) & Key West Film Festival – details via @lisafordblog
Ok so a giant alligator coming to eat people during a hurricane may not scare you, but scenarios like this scare the hell out of me! I’ve lived through many hurricanes and can’t imagine having to worry about a giant man-eating alligator on top of everything else you go through to survive a wild storm. Crawl is a great film brought to you by the same Producer of Evil Dead and Don’t Breathe, Sam Raimi, as well as Craig Flores and Alexandre Aja. Crawl was screened at the Key West Film Festival a couple of days ago. The 8th annual film festival featured A-List Directors like Martin Scorsese and it…

KURT COBAIN – Rare Footage of One of His Final Interviews (Video) via @lisafordblog #FBF
This is possibly the best interview I have ever seen. Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain is authentic. He is not trying to think of witty things to say, to make an impression, to control the viewer’s reaction, which is the CONVENTIONAL way to give an interview. He does listen. His answers aren’t rehearsed. Authenticity is so rare, crucial to the ability to make authentic art. It’s hard to believe Kurt existed at one point in time. He’s almost like a mystical figure. He got really popular overnight and was really only known for about 2 1/2 years to the mainstream public. In this interview, Kurt hints towards his loneliness by saying he…
