okay im dummy late on this post. we closed a few weeks ago but i had to take the time to make some noise for this cast, crew, & family that was built recently. an extension of the ATL premiere, Young John Lewis came to DC.

i think if the late Congressman was here, his essence and integrity would inspire a whole generation that needs his voice right now. you mess with one, you mess with all. i think that’s the mindset we gotta have in these times. and also have a lotta fun along the way because John Lewis was a playful person 😂 forreal. so grateful to be part of keeping his legacy alive. not to mention he was active in sit ins to desegregate lunch counters, coordinating with black students across the US through SNCC, speaking to labor, capital, voting, and racial inequality in the south. while being front line the whole time. keep making good trouble. play your role. & enjoy the moments.

We are proud to announce, “Mechanical Pencil” is headed to @tribeca festival as an Official Selection of the NOW program!

Catch us live at the screening:
June 10 | AMC 19th St. l 8:30 pm.

Shout to the cast and crew that made this possible. ❤️ It’s crazy to think we were just rappin’ in my living room. I love to spotlight the intimacy, musicality, and divinity of young, Black artists—ones who don’t just dream, but bring it to life one verse at a time. That energy heals, and we’re honored to carry it to @tribeca. #tribeca25 #tribeca by @michaelbahsil
