Sooooo this sounds so DOPE! From Deadline: #SeithMann has been hired by Studio 8 to adapt the comic series BLACK which explores the idea if what only black people had superpowers? The company plans to franchise the IP and also develop the follow up comic BLACK [AF]: America’s Sweetheart which has a female lead. BLACK looks at an increasingly polarized world where — after inexplicably surviving being gunned down by police due to racial profiling — young Kareem Jenkins joins a secret underground group of black super heroes and must choose between personal revenge or collective action to achieve real and lasting change. #blackexcellence #BLACK #comics #comicnews #adaptation #superpowers

THE STORY OF HIP HOP

Last night VH-1 hosted a screening of “The Breaks” an original film based on the Dan Charnas’ book “The Big Payback: The Business of Hip Hop.” The fictional tale written, directed and executive produced by Seith Mann paints a very realistic portrait of three friends trying to make it in the music industry in the early ‘90s before hip hop became an American classic. The cast is stellar and the storytelling is on point. “The Breaks” will air January 4, 2016 on VH-1.
