Real Quick with Danielle Young

There's many reasons Beyoncé mentioned Tamika Mallory in her new song all about Blackness and one of those reasons is because she is who you call when you need to march/protest/resist to get justice. Tamika came to Real Quick with real action items to organize and mobilize to seek justice. We haven't forgotten about Breonna Taylor.

Lil Rel Howery went from praying he would be a comedian, actor and producer one day to actually doing it and being #1 on the callsheet. He's invested not only in his own career, but in the careers of those who look like him with voices that need to be heard. Here's how he "walked into the TV."

There's no other 15-year-old like the incredible boss queen, Marsai Martin.

Plus, she's launching new businesses that will blow your mind! #BlackGirlMagic for sure!

LisaRaye is completely unfiltered as she shares stories of a Tupac video shoot, her "The Player's Club" audition, multiple streams of income, what she wants in a man and she even tells the youngins in hip hop to respect those who come before them. Wonder who she could be talking about?

Robert Townsend is the director of B.A.P.S., The 5 Heartbeats, Eddie Murphy's Raw, Hollywood Shuffle, Carmen The Hip Hopera and more.

Spoiler alert, there are tears in this episode, but they're cried by whom?!

You may know Amber P. Riley as Mercedes from the very popular primetime TV show, "Glee," but Amber has grown up since that show. Now, the talented singer and actress is finding her voice in the activism space and has been completely "woken up." Now unafraid of losing her career or ruffling the wrong feathers, Amber is out to fight for our rights through BldPwr as well as her own initiative, #unMUTEny, which calls actors of color to speak out about inequality in Hollywood.

Shawn Stockman may be 1/3 of the legendary R&B crooning group, Boyz II Men, but he's a Back man first. Right now, America is hurting and honestly, racism has always been the thing inflicting the pain. Shawn Stockman couldn't help but process how he feels as a Black man in America after witnessing the deaths of Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd and more. Oh and if there's a Boyz II Men biopic, he wants Jordan Peele to do it.

If you've ever followed me on social media, you know that I go home to Rocky Mount, North Carolina as often as I can. I always share my family, especially my momma because she pretends to hate it, but secretly loves the camera. Her personality is lovable and big, so most of my social fam has fallen in love with her. I interviewed her so you could know our story and how she was chosen to be my mom. Nope, she's not my birth mother, but she is my momma!

This special episode was recorded on Mother’s Day and we had the internet’s sweetheart Tabitha Brown on the show cuz that’s our business.
