Tyler, The Creator Wants to See More Black Cartoon Characters

 

Tyler, The Creator just released a new album for fans, but he’s still focusing on his TV career. While attending San Diego Comic Con to promote his upcoming The Jellies! cartoon, the Flower Boy rapper explains why he made the main character, Cornell, black, as he was previously white on the GOLF Media app.

The “Boredom” entertainer believes that there aren’t enough black cartoons on television right now, and explains why he wanted to make sure there was better representation in the cartoon world. He also details why Cornell won’t fit any of the potential stereotypes that have followed black characters in the past.

“Why you make him black?’ Why can’t niggas have anything, man?” Tyler exclaims. “How many fuckin’ black cartoon characters is it on TV right now? Name five. I’ll give you time. It is none… We don’t got shit… So I said fuck that, we about to make this nigga black, and he ain’t got no guns, he ain’t shoot no fucking basketball, and he a fucking goober, and we gon’ put him on TV. And he’s the lead character, he ain’t the comic relief, he ain’t the sidekick, he the lead nigga.”

The Jellies! was created by Tyler and Lionel Boyce of Odd Future and is coming soon to Adult Swim. We can also look forward to Tyler starring on his Nuts and Bolts show on Viceland next year.

‘Something Won’t Let Me Drown’ @Lanzaretta [TRK]

SOMETHING WON'T LET ME DOWN IMAGE

Soul singer and songwriter, Lauren Lanzaretta, released her 11-track debut album, Naked Soul, in June of 2014 which was welcomed with positive reviews. Jeff Neisel of the Cleveland Scene Magazine said, “The debut from Lauren Lanzaretta effectively channels Aretha Franklin and other Soul/R&B greats, calling attention to this rising talent.”

Lauren continues to light up the music scene with her exciting live performances and inspiring vibes. Currently, Lauren is working on her new album entitled “Deliverance”, which will be an evolution of her signature soul sound with hints of rich gospel. The new EP features emotional piano ballads, inspiring choir backing, and vulnerable lyrics that draws the listener deeper into Lauren’s life experiences.

 

‘Something Won’t Let Me Drown’ is a soul/gospel piano ballad written, produced and performed by Lauren Lanzaretta, and is the first single from her upcoming album “Deliverance”.

100% Of the proceeds from “Something Won’t Let Me Drown” will be donated to Remember Nhu. Remember Nhu is a movement of people who dream of a better world. We believe that children have an inalienable right to grow up happy and healthy, and the idea that any child should be victimized in this way is appalling to all of us. Consider the following question: If you had the opportunity to identify a child who is at risk of being sold, prevent that from happening, and protect the child from ever entering the sex trade—would you do it?
