I know it’s been months since we last spoke, and I have no idea if this is of any interest to you, or if you have any materials to send, but, we just got a call for submissions for something very exciting, especially for you
Oh yeah? What is it?
Tyler Perry
Tyler Perry
Tyler Perry!
Oh, no!
Tyler Perry
Tyler Perry
Tyler Perry!
Hell no!
It seems he’s gotten so busy with film and TV that his team is looking to farm out the gospel plays to a ghostwriter. It’ll be a scream! And didn’t you once tell me that your mother would lovе nothing more than for you to write one? So, how ’bout it, Ush? Just writе a sassy, matriarch, a lonely spinster who loves God, throw in a few Color Purple quotes! Whaddya say?
Thank you for the opportunity…
Of course! Of course
But Tyler would be none too fond of me
Now don’t sell yourself short!
The crap he puts on stage, film and TV
Makes my bile want to rise!
I know, your “integrity.”
Nothing that he writes seems real to me
Yes, you think he sucks
Just simple-minded hack buffoonery!
But no white theaters will touch you
And if I try to match his coonery
He’d see through my disguise
It’s true, I’m still emerging
Looking to make my start
But not so hungry that I’d write the Chitlin Circuit
I’m into entertainment
That’s undercover art
My mission is to figure out just how to work it
Today…
Today, I plan to change this scene for the better –
(spoken)
Hello? Agent Fairweather? Somebody there?
Race traitor!
Race traitor!
Race traitor!
“Race traitor?” I’m not a race traitor! Who are you?
I’m Harriet motherf#ckin’ Tubman, and I got a problem with you!
I’m Marcus motherf#ckin’ Messiah Garvey, and I’ve got a problem with you, too!
Jimmy Baldwin!
Zora Neale Huston!
12 Years a Slave, here!
Whitney!
What do you want with me?
To get you together! Make me get my black #ss up outta my twenty dollar grave to put your black #ss on blast, talkin’ bad about Tyler Perry!
Who the f#ck is you, n#gg#?
You look it, but you ain’t no true n#gg#!
You make us ancestors blue
Actin’ brand new
n#gg#, I can’t with you!
Tyler is a real n#gg#
And not a cracker-pleasing seal, n#gg#!
He writes how our people feel
With him at the wheel
n#gg#, what can’t we do?
Cause Tyler Perry writes real life!
Tyler Perry writes real life!
He writes stories we can swallow
Like Popeyes chicken and biscuits!
He writes stories we can follow
Like we followed the drinking gourd!
He writes stories ’bout fat, Black women with weaves
Finding love and redemption
With muscle-bound Black men who own they own business
And truly love the Lord
And truly love the Lord!
So, if you won’t follow through, n#gg#
I’ll SMDH at you, n#gg#
Cause
I’m just a somebody
n#gg# what?
Trying to tell everybody
n#gg# who, ahh
That you ain’t nobody, n#gg#, so
Get off the stage
Cause
Tyler Perry writes real life
Cause Tyler Perry writes…
That n#gg# built a f#cking table for us
Cause of Tyler, we ain’t sitting at the back of the bus
But you still out here chasing all this white people sh#t
When you’re broke, and ain’t got no money
Broke, and ain’t got no money
Broke, and ain’t got no money
n#gg#, that’s real life!
