I decided that if Bill Duke wrote a book, I would read it.
Bill mentioned to us that he plans on releasing books with his latest projects (related to the projects, not his life. Yes we know that's not the same thing). We have more great stuff to release from our interview with Bill Duke. He also has other great interviews online.
Film Courage
Coolness.
This badass mf'er shows just how f'ed up hollywood is. Duke can out act any mf'er in hollywood in addtion to kick they're ass!
I think he has written several. I will look them up and buy them.
Real shit Imma need that book Bill
"Some people exchange sexual favors, and they get a-head... no pun intended."
Lol that was good.
Multi talented and a true professional.
First saw him as Abdullah in Car Wash with Richard Pryor back in the 70s.
That was my 1st encounter with him as well.

Bill Duke is an very insightful person.
I’ve watched that movie at least 8 times. Love it like it was the first time I saw it.
PEACE. Ditto! Watched "Car Wash" last week. It's a favorite.
he speaks like a true sage.
Are you a long time fan of his work?
What's a sage?
@@Iamthistermwinner: A sage, (I think) is one who possesses keen wisdom and insight...
Wisdom
RoathRipper experienced tyme.
Bill Duke is incredible. He's someone who always had my respect. He's humble, incredibly intelligent and very, very wise.
This applies to most work places. It's not what you know, but who you blow.
hate that shit
I Work on a construction Side and half of the time we're deepthroating
welcome to this shitty soyciety
Always loved this guy! 'Both multi talented and grounded...pretty rare in the film industry.
One of the best interviews that's straight to the point! Bill Duke!! "I'm gonna have me some fun!" (Predator)
Check out the one on VladTV
Anytiiiime!

This Brother is very intelligent 🎓
He's 75 and seen !!
Bill puts everything in its right perspective. Just because you live in a big mansion, doesn't mean that your father is not abusive or your mother is not a nut. In other words, the Mansion is just what covers all of that up to make everything seem normal. Smoke and mirrors. Bill keeps dropping jewels...
Daimon Mario Perez you didn’t already know that on your own?
True. I have seen that rich people are the most miserable people in the world. I have seen poor people who turn wealthy ask " is this all there is ? ".
edwinjones1000 I felt that way til I found out I had youth on my side.
You were wise to have come to that awareness. What triggered you coming to that conclusion ?
Good perspective. I cannot argue with the scope of such international observations. I'll bet it was heart breaking to see all that suffering.
ALL the people I have worked for were rich and spent a LOT of time and energy just holding on to that wealth or building that wealth. That made them miserable and hard to get along with. That has been my experience. Have the people you worked for behaved differently? If so, you have a different positive perspective. Good for you !!!!!Congratulations.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I guess rich folk in Amsterdam are different, huh ?
Fa sho. You want to be wealthy not rich. In spirit
25% Show 75% business
I had no idea this was his actual tone of voice
Lol i know i always remember his voice deep as , was a bit of a shock. Still a legend tho lol.
I was thinking the exact! same thing!
What happened to his balls? 😂🤣😃😂🤣
Yeah it’s different from the movie Car Wash 😆
No shit, shocked me...lol.
I like to hear this man speak the truth when I was growing up this is a be actor kind of guy and then High saw him become a superhero and some of the greatest movies ever played it's nice to see him not sell himself out keep the strength God bless you my brother
Miss this actor. What a great stage presence. Always believable regardless his role. And yes, scary at times. Thanks Bill for your contributions and wisdom. Stay safe and God bless.
I liked him in Predator.I also liked Deep Cover which he directed.
James Graham Wow, that’s a great film, deep cover is one I’d love to watch again.
@@georgemorley1029 yes it's a ABSOLUTE classic very underrated
He was also the director on the TV series Dallas for some amount of time.
True statement
He is 75 years old and has been practicing transcendental meditation for over 40 years
Yes, definitely a very interesting man. I would love to hear more of his stories as well.
We are holding back a story he tells us about a near-death experience. Blew us away. We'll be posting that one soon.
Lol he's got a few videos on Vladtv
And he’s not telling the details of the story.
@@michaellong6605 I came back to this page because of your reply. Interesting to see that Bill published a memoir last year. I hope to check it out when I get the chance
Bill Duke is Life, Bill Duke is Love.
I'm not trying to sound all self-righteous but I think one's gotta see the world, the universe, and oneself in a bigger scope than to get pimped out just to make it in Hollywood. Oh and shout out to Bill Duke - living legend in my opinion, 'legendary'.
Legend don't even come close Meg!!!
Hes not talking about the world. Hes talking about hollywood
I loved the video but the very end is the best part when he talked about the guys that made a movie with they're cell phones but were still looking to be discovered. He's pretty much saying try to make your dreams come true through your own efforts, on your own terms. No one has to necessarily discover you in order for you to be successful.
Profound stuff spoken by an intelligent man.
In a few words I learned a lot. I have also learned that hard work does not lead to external "success." Work on yourself is a successful process.
PEACE. Exactly! FLY = FIRST LOVE YOU.
Great wisdom, great role actor, glad I had opportunity to watch this man speak.
This man is a wisdom .
You can see his words reflected on him .
Wow! Such wisdom. Such clarity. Impressive...
This is quite deep I loved this interview !!
Mr. Duke imparts knowledge and wisdom that should be encapsulated in book form for all to benefit from. Great interview and even better interviewee.
Love Bill Duke!
I love the way you speak from the heart I could listen to stories all night long :-)
Very good interview
Buddy you are So right the outer appearance can be very misleading know everybody lets everyone know their sorrows in pain and abuse you are totally right
'i told you my name is abdula"
bill duke from carwash 1975
This is a truly wonderful Bro! love his train of thought.
KEEPIN IT REAL.
He knows how The Hollywood Game is played! He is Smart and full of their kind of wisdom!
This magnitude of insight only comes from much observation.
He's a nice guy, he used to shop at the market I worked at in Los Angeles.
I agree, which leads me to this question: Where do I begin to meet the people who can help harness and develop my skills as a writer, director, etc...
hey just checking for an update. have you found those people?
That dark side that you don't want to admit it's called The Shadow. It is important to embrace your shadow and own it. Not live in it but own that side of yourself to be free.
BILL DUKE HAS HART OF GOLD !!!!!!
Very wise man right here! Take notes
So brilliant!!!
I always liked this man he just seems so peaceful n aware.
BEST
POKER
FACE
EVER!
Love this guy. Truth don't care who tell it.
Such a Wise & Cool Man!!👏🤘🍻😊
Hollywood, "We see you!"
Fish net stockings and pumps what a combination..
Just ask OSCAR DE LA HOYA. LOL.
Great..
This was a very profound talk.
This man is full of Wisdom and knowledge about how the game is played in Hollywood you have to have real talent looks alone want get you too far. Would love to red his memoir. This man knows how superficial Hollywood would is an what it takes to have a long Career in Hollywood and stay in the game.
Nothing but truth here.
If Mack tells you something about the jungle of Hollyweird you best listen.
Bill been talking about this for years. Now the truth is out there especially the #musicbusiness.
I could listen to him speak and share wisdom for hours!
We just released our second interview with Bill Duke. It's over 2 hours long : )

I loved Bill Duke before and I love Bill Duke now even more
I Would like to meet him. I worked in "American Gangster" Loved meeting people!
Every single thing in life is the pimp an ho game
The thumbnail had me ready to tell on my whole team. 😂
Amen
I would like to sit down with Mr. Duke and get his take on a lot of life’s questions.
No doubt Tacticus_...
I've been in the business 35 years.
The time I spent auditioning , half of the time people wanted sexual favors... The Casting Couch is REAL. Woe to those going in blindly.. Actresses, models, actors, comedians, musicians all fall prey to the quid pro qoe aspect of the business. Beware stardom seekers.
I know it's been two years, but do you have any tips on how to avoid the casting couch but still succeed?
Mr. Bill Duke is the truth and has always been a very creative thinker....he's absolutely right about Hollyweird.

very articulate...and funny! like him!

Duke speaks truth
Anytime..
Bill Duke isn't lying about Hollywood. It is a business. Talent will take you only so far. If you don't put butts in seats you won't go too far.
He was magnificent in that superbowl commercial
We are all human and we all go through pain
Whole new respect for that man.
I remember him from the Car Wash Movie in 1976
cool and funny guy as well
he should play, Iceberg Slim. his older years, of course.
He went to Dutchess Community College, in Poughkeepsie, before attending B.U. In fact, he is on the D.C.C. Wall of Fame.
I love Bill Duke.
Very interesting guy.
I love his honesty, we need more of that. This is over 4 yrs ago before Weinstein, Spacey, and others were "revealed." We all know talented people, whether it is in comedy, singing, acting and never had a chance to make it, but if someone takes a liking to you that is powerful you got a real shot. How do you get someone to "like" you or what do you have to do to get noticed? So it seems like it is more luck than anything else.
I guess that depends on your point of view. How does Barack Obama become President of the USA? We live in a very racist country and he still becomes President? Not luck or was it part of the cosmic design? I'll choose both, but luck is easier and more comforting to understand.
He is correct that everyone has experienced pain.
"You give away our position one more time, I'll bleed you real quiet, leave you here."
The "Me Too Movement," after many of them have finished benefiting.
One of the Legends of the 80s action man.
The appearance of perfection is so true.
I'd love to see he and Sheryl McClain discuss Hollywood. The real Hollywood.
*Real life Mister Popo from Dragonball Z*
Bill duke is a very smart man
youve come a long way baby
Your net worth depends on your network
True Man very intelligent
There many types of wealth and poverty. We focus on the material but the most important are familial, emotional, social, and spiritual.
It's called acting for a reason, people!
You can say that again !
He described me, I have no path!
A very wise man.
Truth
" Abdullah " from " Car Wash "..The man is 75 ! Took great care of himself ! ( he was 20 when I was born ) GOD BLESS '
