Kenya Barris drops GEMS on Black Hollywood, his new Jerry West doc, ‘Black-ish’ legacy & snitching in hip hop culture

Fat Joe and Jadakiss are joined by award-winning filmmaker and showrunner Kenya Barris, the visionary behind ‘Black-ish,’ ‘Girls Trip,’ and more. Barris breaks down his new Amazon Prime documentary on NBA legend Jerry West and describes The Logo’s “basketball trinity” of himself, Michael Jordan, and Kobe Bryant as players who would die on the court.

Joe and Jada chop it up with Barris about his upcoming collaboration with Fat Joe, the blessing and curse of being a voice for Black Hollywood, and why Ryan Coogler, Issa Rae, and Antoine Fuqua earning at the highest level makes room for everyone behind them. They also get into why it’s important to keep your circle small, the entitlement that comes with proximity to success, jealousy being the most dangerous thing you can have around you, and men needing to remember how to carry themselves like men.

Plus, Joe tells a wild story about almost snitching to James Dolan at the Garden, they commiserate on the negativity surrounding social media, debate the Will Smith-Chris Rock Oscars moment, and break down their respect for Tyler, The Creator and Top Dawg.
