Within the last decade, writer-director Ryan Coogler has cast Michael B. Jordan in six of his most significant projects. The dynamic, disruptive duo come back together to make “Sinners” as action-packed as “Creed” and as profound as “Black Panther.” At its heart, the film celebrates Black culture throughout history in an unexpected commentary about white supremacy and its impact on Black communities.

Almost two years after his launch to fame with the release of his single “Roommates,” Malcolm Todd dropped his first studio album on April 4. Having opened for Omar Apollo and performed in festivals like Governor's Ball and Lollapalooza, Todd has practiced his stage presence despite starting his music career during the pandemic and will be going on tour starting May.
