Issa's work and authenticity is why she's successful. She has a vision for her company and positions people around her to execute with her. The epitome of a boss.
@Elize Kelly they hate to see a woman who looks regular succeed. They want black women to put in labor but not profit out out it Plus it irks them that they can’t point her success to her being extremely beautiful or lightskin or something that gave her privilege which opened doors for her. It’s evident she put in the work and it paid off big time.
@@SharonIfe shes beautiful but not glamorous to the point where she isnt relatable. She literally looks like the girl next door. Which I love her even more for.
@@MM-we4no Preach! She's a shining example that good, kind, selfless, nurturing people also exist and succeed in a money driven industry, in an extremely capitalist country...
I love that Issa is constantly putting other people on and highlighting them, while still paving new opportunities for herself. She's such an inspiration.
@@britb4544 How??? Girl i assume you're american, I live in a third world country where nearly everybody in my surrounding is broke (the avg minimum wage per month is $100, that's what a Burger King Manager earns in a day of work), which means if you start a business tey are more likely to beg for free item than buy from you, but we're still pushin. How you can say you lack opportunities when you live in a country where you can just litterally simply save and invest using webull and gather passive income... Please look up, if it's hard brace yourself and keep pushin do not allow yourself to look
@@mikatteba225 First world problems are still problems... Equity, Credit score... you can have the best ideas, but unless you have a rich person or business backing you, or you know certain people, its a slow grind to the top (if you can get there). Then, you have to worry about competitors who have financial backing and a bigger name, people willing to take you down and steal your ideas.... there's a lot to consider. Its not even easy to get a loan to start a business over here. and you absolutely have to have more than enough money to do that. Some of us get lucky, some dont
Issa’s organic growth is so inspirational. She never gave up on herself or what she believed in. I’d love the chance to meet and work with her someday!
I cringe at people still capping for Tyler perry. Just because perry is black doesn't mean you should be a fan.hopefully she actually is pro union and doesn't hoard her money, underpay the writers and actors and overwork them. But yay to black Capitalists like tyler...
@@neonrays28 you are right. Issa is literally her own vision. She has charted territories that had never yet been explored for black women. The way she represents black women is exceptional. I feel like she has filled a gap that none else will. Kind of like what fenty did for black women and women with darker skin complexions in terms of makeup. She makes me feel seen.
I’m deadass proud of Issa like she family 😂 I remember coming across ABG “the stapler” episode in my recommended videos and I don’t think I’ve ever felt more seen. Thank you Issa and congratulations on your continued success 🥂
@Alpha Omega - Black men have the (power) to make the world stand on its feet. Black women have the (influence) to make the world take steps forward. Black men and black women (need each other) to keep the world moving. Everything on planet earth has our DNA on it. Chill...we got you!
Issa Rae is literally such an inspiration to me. You can tell she really cares about the people in her community because as she moves up the ladder, she is creating more opportunities for black people. I cannot wait to see what she does next. I loved Insecure and I just know she's going to kill it.
I was an Issa Rae stan when she was filming her own scenes in her car with just a camera attached. I wish I had pitched MYSELF as a bigger stan to HELP her grow when I met her in 2012 when she spoke at Lesley. But I am an Awkward Black Girl myself and didn't want to be LIKE Stan!😂😩 So happy for her success, from afar.
I had no idea she was doing all of this. I knew she had her own production company but I didn't know she had more than that. So glad she let us see all that she is doing/ capable of because I got overwhelmed watching her explain it all until I realized that she is showing us that we CAN do it all. Nothing is too much! Go get it all!
I am soo happy for this!! Let me manifest this here : my bestfriend graduated has a script writer and i want my bestfriend to apply some way or some how to work with you guys and grow with you guys as well. Her creativity, her sense of humour, her mind overall and her way of developing characters is AMAZING !!!
I would LOVE to work for Issa! She has opened up so many doors for other young black female filmmakers like me. I'm extremely proud of her for making her dream a reality!
This woman was born to succeed!!!! I love to see it all and just love how she's using her platform to highlight and give a lane for other Black creatives!!! HOORAE, indeed!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I love seeing things like this happen. Issa Rae is doing her own thing and having entertainment companies coming to HER, not the other way around. She's a great example of the quote "We must find a way or make one." Go Issa!! ⭐
This is EVERYTHING!! Will use as a blueprint for a trilingual, black woman house music DJ, radio personality, owns a tax firm and happens to be disabled. 💥💥💥👏🏾🙏🏾🤗✊🏾
Issa Rae executes exactly what she says she is going to do. She does what everybody else only speaks about as far as putting "our people" on and creating avenues for overlooked talented people. She is truly a Queen Boss!
Just binged all of insecure for the second time. The writing on that show is amazing. I love how real and raw the friendships and hardships are. Cant wait for the final season. Love you Isssssa!
I am so happy for you, Issa and I support you 100%. Please stay true to your roots because I believe you can show that it is possible to be black centered and focused and be part of the African Diaspora with content and creativity. Too many black production owners and media “giants” are still allowing a western white media head to make final decisions . You have the virtue of having a Senegalese father; I think it would be wonderful to tap into the abundance of talent in Africa and show how much we can do supporting each other end to end.
Issa, just to let you know, even if you never do anything else, you are SOOOO inspirational from what you've already accomplished. Thank you for being you! Hoorae!!!
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I don't know you personally BUT this Aunty is sooo very very proud of YOU, your intelligence, talent, businesses acumen, & drive. Thank you for always reaching back as you soar towards the universe! My beautiful sister, I pray God continues to Protect you, Bless you & gives you Favor!
You are a dream come true. I have followed you from the Misadventures of an Awkward Black Girl. You were amazing, hilarious, and beautiful then and you still are now. I love you Issa. Keep doing you boo.
So proud of her like she's an old friend. I've been with her from the start when she did Awkward Black Girl. I get excited everytime I see her winning!
Man I love Issa. She has always kept it real from day one. Love how she's always been like "Oh, ya'll not letting us sit at your table, ok we're going to make our own."
You are literally so awesome! I love Insecure, and I love your sense of humor so much! So glad to see you killing it, you so deserve it! Unbelievably talented!!
I love this so much! I love it for Issa Rae and for all the awkward Black girls watching! I had an African American teacher in 2013, tell the class there would never be a positive image of Black women on HBO. Then Insecure premiered 3 years later. It’s amazing to watch this in real time.
I've been watching since Akward Black Girl and I'm hella proud of everything you and your team have accomplished. I just want to tell you from the depths of my soul that....We need Roomie's, Lovers, Friends back Iss! We NEEEEEED it! #ThatIsAll
@@fadeline Numa and Dennis created it but Issa was a executive producer on some episodes. I need her to collaborate with them again and bring it back lol. They left us stuck not knowing what will happen with Tamiko and Jay!
I’m vibrating with excitement! This may possibly change the world. Better representation of us in media moves mountains. Having more areas/resources to turn to with the permission to be authentically ourselves is HUGE. Thank God for Issa. 💙
OMG!!! HOORAE!!! Issa you are so tough you don't even know! I love your vision, your drive, and your heart for the arts and your people. You are the Real Deal!
I'm a fan since ABG, and continue to love watching you, your team and company lighting up in all the ways dreamed by earlier generations. I love how you are honoring your aunt in the Bay Area, weaving spirit into everything! It's evident how hard you've worked, congrats on the deserved growth and success, inspiring all us brown girls.
So proud of you Issa! I saw you build this from the ground up starting with The Misadventures if Awkward. It's so rewarding to see people who deserve to win win! HOORAE!
“Rap shit is coming through. City Girls about to be my best friends that’s the only reason I did the show🤣😭” CANT MF WAIT HOORAE COME ON THROUGH
Its embarrassing how hard that made me laugh lol
So funny! 😂
Mad Genius! 😂
😆💫 I read this as she was saying it, this is Absolutely Epic!
That got me too. 😅😅😅
I love this so much.
Yes, kev we love you too. Congrats on your Naacp nom 🎊
You now and you next @kevonstage
This is next level. Issa built a table and a ladder 🙌🏿
Oh my goodness this is BEYOND dope in so many ways !! Both if you are doing amazing things !!
When I saw this, I immediately thought of what you are doing Kev. 🙌🏾
Self-containment is changing the game. She doesn't have to ask for opportunities, she makes them.
Precisely this!
👏👏👏👏WE HAVE TOO!
Speak! 🔥
This!

I was an awkward black girl fan and then an Issa Stan. I love this 🥰🥰
That part 💛💃🏾🤸🏾♀️🙌🏾 ditto
Issa’s organic growth is so inspirational. She never gave up on herself or what she believed in. I’d love the chance to meet and work with her someday!
I was about to say, she never gave up on her dream, vision or what she believed in. Insecure is so refreshing and organic. Love her
I can see Issa becoming the woman version of Tyler Perry. Building her own empire and only needing her own companies. Love to see it!
nailed it right on the head
