We’ve seen you on television, in movies, and on stage doing music. But you really shifted your focus to creating other opportunities for other people. And you really helped a lot of people of color in the industry. Can you so can you speak a little bit about your transition in your career from being in front of the camera to really being a person who put other people on behind the camera?

Interestingly enough, that’s always been my goal and my mission. I actually never really wanted to be on camera in front of the camera. I just wanted to create. People who I looked up to, and still do look up to – coming up with the Quincy Jones of the world, and Diddy who is the gentleman who had actually helped shaped culture and gave opportunities – I was always inspired by them. So even from our very beginning stages, even the things where whether I was my music, acting, or even comedy, where I was in front of the camera – those things, as much joy as they brought in and kind of even introduced me to the public, I’ve always felt like that was my second calling to actually being a creative and specifically because I always just wanted to put people on. I always wanted to give my friends and family opportunities. So that’s kind of where, if anything, as much as it seems like it’s my new mission, it’s kind of always been my mission. And, hopefully, it’s a true example of generational wealth where it’s an ‘each one, teach one’ mentality – where all the things that I’ve learned over the years, I can now pass it on to the next generation.
