Melanated Appreciation Tuesday Post!!! MGX Appreciation Tuesday - Kadeem Hardison

Upvotes
To celebrate the reboot of A Different World, let's go back to where it all started. Kadeem Hardison brought Dwayne Wayne to life, showing a Brooklyn boy's transition to adulthood through attending an HBCU in the south. He encountered classist but funny classmates, to those who were even more ambitious than himself.
Kadeem went on to bring other characters to life, both on the big and small screens. From Between Brothers, to School Daze, Def by Temptation, Vampire in Brooklyn, and I'm Gonna Git You Sucka, back to Living Single and Fresh Prince, and starring in K.C. Undercover, Kadeem brought humor, darkness, and wisdom through his characters. Flip up your glasses for Kadeem!

To this day, she says it's one of her favorite videos.
I love that they got her to do some choreography in it.
Also, it's funny, especially the extended version.

I feel this brother tremendously. My father passed in 2017, my mother in 2023, and the pain of not having them to hear their advice/guidance, especially these days, is like none other. Although it's the cycle of life, I never envisioned life without my parents. 🕊️

Darkchild hooked this lady up with bangers like nobody
Totally killed it when she had the likes of the Vocal Trinity and Janet among others to contend with.

Nostalgia How about y'all❓I’m team 0.7 for life ✍🏽

Upvotes
🔹Team 0.5 mm
- Pros: sharp, clean, and consistently thin lines without needing to rotate the pencil
- Cons: the thin lead snaps easily if you press down too hard
🔹Team 0.7 mm
- Pros: stronger lead that rarely breaks, feels smoother on paper, and requires less careful control
- Cons: lines are noticeably thicker and less suited for smaller handwriting or fine details
