    Unexpected Christmas - Movie Review | Episode 81 | Ubiquitous Blacks Reviews

    It’s time for another Black ensemble Christmas movie — but this one is Unexpected. TeaRon and BK break down Unexpected Christmas, the holiday comedy starring Lil Rel Howery, Dominique Perry, Reagan Gomez-Preston, and the legendary Anna Maria Horsford. Before diving into the film, the hosts reflect on some of their favorite Black Christmas classics and what expectations come with them. In Unexpected Christmas, Marissa (Perry) is blindsided when her longtime boyfriend Richard (Howery) claims he can’t join her for Christmas — only for her to arrive at her family’s Texas home and find him there anyway… as the date of her estranged stepsister Kerry (Gomez-Preston). From fake boyfriends to messy revelations, chaos erupts as Marissa plots her holiday revenge. The question is: does this movie deliver festive fun, or does the drama overwhelm the cheer? TeaRon and BK unpack the twists, performances, and whether Unexpected Christmas earns a spot in the Black holiday movie rotation. –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Follow Us: IG: @tearonworld / @bkwitda4fa4 TT: @tearon__ / @bkgostupid FB: facebook.com/UbiquitousBlacks THRD: @ubiquitousblacks –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– About UBIQUITOUS BLACKS Podcast: Ubiquitous Blacks is an internationally focused podcast that explores similarities and differences of the Black/African diaspora experiences around the world.

  2. BK's Blacklist - Set It Off Review | Episode 80 | Ubiquitous Blacks Reviews

    BK's Blacklist - Set It Off Review | Episode 80 | Ubiquitous Blacks Reviews

    We’re kicking off a brand-new segment on the show: BK’s Blacklist — where BK (our Gen-Z, suburban-raised co-host) takes on the classic Black films he somehow missed, and TeaRon (who grew up on all of them) guides him through a multigenerational deep dive into the movies that shaped Black culture. Together, they break down the nostalgia, the legacy, and the big question: do these classics still hold up today? For the first installment, we’re revisiting one of the most iconic bank-heist films of all time — Set It Off, starring legends Queen Latifah, Jada Pinkett Smith, Vivica A. Fox, and Kimberly Elise, directed by the incomparable F. Gary Gray. From unforgettable lines to culture-shifting moments, this film still sparks conversation decades later. TeaRon and BK unpack the performances, the impact, the emotional punches, and the scenes that still stick with us — all while debating BK’s final rating.  When did you first see Set It Off? And does it still hold up? –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Follow Us: IG: @tearonworld / @bkwitda4fa4 TT: @tearon__ / @bkgostupid FB: facebook.com/UbiquitousBlacks THRD: @ubiquitousblacks –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– About UBIQUITOUS BLACKS Podcast: Ubiquitous Blacks is an internationally focused podcast that explores similarities and differences of the Black/African diaspora experiences around the world.

    TeaRon and BK jump headfirst into Season 2 of The Vince Staples Show — and this time, the chaos is turned ALL the way up. After a breakout first season, the series returns with fresh themes, genre-bending storytelling, and the kind of unpredictable moments ONLY Vince could dream up.
