repost via @embracingblackculture π©πππΏπ― The story behind this is amazing. They all made a pact that no matter who becomes successful first, they would help each other out and pull the rest up as they rise. And that's exactly what they did! Martin opened for both Salt n' Pepa, and Kid n' Play with his comedy act. Christopher Reid (Kid) produced the intro for Martin's show "Martin". And Christopher Martin (Play) designed Salt n' Pepa's famous jackets during their "Push It" days, and he styled Martin for Def Comedy Jam. Now THAT is how we ought to support and uplift one another. There's enough room for all of us to be great. ππΏππΏππΏ β’ β’ β’ #EBCThrowbackMonth #BlackThrowbackMonth #SaltnPepa #KidnPlay #Martin #MartinLawrence #ThrowbackThursday #BlackMusic #DefComedyJam #HipHop #rap #rappers #BlackExcellence #BlackMen #BlackWomen #fortheculture #rootingforeverybodyBlack #BlackCulture #BlackPride #BlackPeople #90s #BlackGirlMagic #BlackBoyJoy #BlackCommunity #flashback
