Emuva kwi-2018, umbhali uKenya Barris watyikitya isivumelwano sezigidi ngeedola ngeNetflix emva kokuyeka umboniso weABC Umnyama-ish . Ngelo xesha, uCindy Holland, i-VP yeNetflix yomxholo wokuqala, wambiza njengomnye wababalisi bamabali bethu banamhlanje.
Okwangoku, uthotho lwakhe lokuqala lweNetflix, # Mnyama, irhoxisiwe (emva kokuba ihlaziyiwe ekuqaleni) ukuze iphinde ihleleke njengefilimu, ngokwe Umgca weTV . U-Barris naye washiya esi sivumelwano esenza eyakhe i-BET Studio, kunye nokusungula ileyibhile entsha yokurekhoda, ipodcast venture, isivumelwano seencwadi kunye nesivumelwano sokuqala sefilimu, njenge THR iyaqhekeka. Kwiprofayili kaBarris, uthi kolu khetho:
Ndizakubiza lo ngumdlalo owahlukileyo, kwezinye izinto, kuba kubalulekile ukubiza umhlakulo, utshilo uBarris, evuma ukuba lixesha elikhethekileyo kolu shishino ukuba umnyama kwaye unento oyithethayo. Isicwangciso, ubuncinci njengoko esicinga, kukuthengisa umxholo weprimiyamu ukusuka kumazwi angachazwanga ukuya kwiivenkile ngaphakathi nangaphandle kwipotifoliyo yeViacomCBS. Kakade, u-Barris kunye nababhali abancedileyo ekufumaneni izimvo ze-Hulu, Apple, Showtime kunye ne-Starz, ukubala nje abambalwa. Ndifuna ukwenza ebusweni bakho, utsho ngophawu lwentengiso yakhe. Ndifuna ukuthengisa kuye wonke umntu- kwaye ukuba awufuni kusebenza nam, anditsho ukuba ucalucalulo, kodwa abanye abantu banako.
I-Kenya Barris ngumntu ocacisayo kwezolonwabo. Njengomdali oMnyama, i-sitcom yakhe eyaziwayo Umnyama-ish ihlala idweliswa phakathi kwezona ndawo zintle zexesha lonke, ihlala isesinye seendawo zokuhlala ukufumana olo mbeko kuluhlu oluninzi lwabamhlophe. Kwangelo xesha, oko kubandakanya imiba yembala, ukuphindaphindeka kwelensi yodidi oluphezulu, kunye nesibheno kwakuloo mehlo mhlophe ibonakalise umboniso wakhe ukuba mhle.
Kwinqaku xa kuphakanyisiwe ukuba wafumana ukugxekwa okuninzi malunga # Mnyama, UBarris uthi, Ngaba ndifuna uCharlamagne ayithande inkqubo yam? Ewe ndiyayenza, kodwa kufuneka ndinyaniseke kuwe, andikhathali kangako ukuba uCharlamagne uyayithanda inkqubo yam kunokuba uMalcolm Gladwell eyithanda. Ngenxa yokuba incasa yam yitalente yam-kwaye uCharlamagne unendlela yakhe, kwaye ngumgaqo ophumelele kakhulu, ayisiyondlela endiyifunayo.
Ngoku, njengomntu ongakhathaliyo kangako ukuba uCharlamagne uyandithanda okanye akathandi, iyakhala ngokungathandekiyo, xa usenza umboniso obiziweyo #blackAF kwaye uthetha ngabo bakuxhasayo, ukukhankanya u-Wes Anderson kunye noMalcolm Gladwell njengabantu ofuna ukuvunywa kubo.
Enye yezinto ezinokuba nzima malunga nokuxoxa ngemiboniso eMnyama kukuba nokuba ngubani abaphulaphuli, ukuze umboniso uphumelele, kufuneka ube nesibheno esithile. Ewe ewe, ukwenza into enomtsalane kubantu abamhlophe, nayo ayisiyonto imbi. Kananjalo ayingombandela ukuba afuna ukwenza izinto ezenzelwe ukufikelela kuluntu.
Apho iKenya Barris iqhubeka ixhaphaza kubagxeki abaNtsundu abaninzi bayasilela ukulungisa imibala ekubunjweni kwakhe, kunye nokuyila amabali ekufanele ukuba abe malunga namava abaNtsundu kwaye uhlala ebaguqula babe kwinqanaba eliphakathi-eliphakathi, iimveliso zombala.
U-Barris unetalente kwaye unombono, kodwa awuzange wandise okanye ukhule ngokwembono. Ewe kunjalo, xa loo mbono mnye ukukwenza ube sisityebi, wenza ukuba kubenzima ukwandisa, ngakumbi xa uthethelela umbala njengomboniso nje wombono wakho omncinci wabasetyhini abaMnyama.
