It’s been a lifetime Tumblr!
Here’s a batch of characters I’ve been working away for a few stories that are floating in my mind.
The Priest and The Apprentice

🎥#ArtIsAWeapon "Ladies First: A Story of Women In Hip-Hop" premieres today, August 9th, on @netflix! I am excited about this docuseries - particularly its timing - since many of this year's celebratory #HipHop50 festivals and concerts rarely featured female emcees/rappers as headliners or barely included them in the lineup. Shout out to:
▪︎ALL the ladies in #HipHop who blazed the trail, changed the game and are at the top of this still male-dominated culture
▪︎My girl/co-executive producer of "Ladies First" Crystal Whaley @tabascofour
▪︎My Bronx sis, the brilliant scholar Dr. @JoanMorgan
▪︎The dope @syreetagates, Founder & CEO of the @thegatespreserve!

Meet Naomi from “Meet The Snows” currently on @tubi 🕊 Ahhh. Can I say how ecstatic I was to turn on @tubi type in “Meet The Snows” and see my FACE! a joy. Director @robertopeters Produced by @meezynumbers & @keedie_ceo Film @meetthesnows ✨ We shot this in 2020 & when I say what a ride lol. I’ve found so much joy in this industry and I’m so grateful for every opportunity I get. Thank You @robertopeters @meezynumbers @keedie_ceo @atdevereux for the opportunity. Amazing working with you. 🌙 I auditioned in person for this, which I’ve done in person for commercials but this was my first time doing it for film. As I was prepping, I channeled all anxiety into “Good Nervous Energy” and when I say that continuously shifted how I used my nerves when they arrived, you have no idea. This is a huge stepping stone for me and there is SO much more to come but for now, stream @meetthesnows on @tubi now 🕊 #atlactress #meetthesnows #tubi #strongblacklead #vieagency #lilystalent #aubriebony #melanin #queenin #twa #natural #afro #nollywood (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck8V5YErlS2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Andile Win - Malcolm X by Spike Lee - MONOLOGUE SLAM ONLINE - February 23, 2034 from Andile Win on Vimeo.
In this monologue I play civil rights activist Malcolm X addressing a Harlem crowd. Originally written and directed by Spike Lee, this was performed by Denzel Washington in the titular role, released in 1992.
