Above the fray.
Part of his story doesn't add up. Tyler Perry allegedly writes EVERYTHING that is produced under his banner.
Tearing up and rewriting a script that he wrote himself, in the spot?

=================================*
Also, if true TP seemed to trolling Alphonso R. (Carlton) because the EXACT SAME bait-and-switch, change script to make character gay storyline happened here.

Looks like Aaron McGruder exposed too much of what was going on 'behind the scenes', which is why we don't hear much about him any more.
He made himself an enemy of the Viacom/TheRoot/Essence media industrial complex lol.

But just of the strength of being the creator of the Boondocks, he’ll always have cultural clout. I’m surprised he hasn’t taken advantage of the streaming boom yet like other cartoonist, but who knows what bro is on nowadays.

Did you all even watch the rest of the videos? He says, in the last part, that it was a stressful situation, artificially created by Mr. Perry, to get the best performance out of him. Basically method acting. He says, in the last video, that Mr. Perry tells him he did a good job and that made him feel good and “seen.” Stop trying to drag Mr. Perry’s name through the mud and accuse him of being something he’s not!
I watched all the parts and he said the experience was a good one just different than what he expected. Glad I did because the 1st part doesn't tell the whole story.
