It’s crazy to hear about the black UK experience and that it’s not too far from the black American experience. He shows that in this great show. Rooting for him!

Outstanding series. I hope Rapman goes very far with his career. I think we are seeing the birth of an extraordinary talent.

As a 62 year old woman, I didn't think I would enjoy it but I wanted to give it a chance as it has a black cast, but to my surprise I really enjoyed it.
It is very well written and the acting is superb. I love the way it has been shot- very cinematic. London looked beautiful, even the rough areas. I am very much looking forward to season 2
well done Rapman !!

Im an east Texas black kid and you gained a fan. I can't wait for season 2. You knocked this one out of the park.

I didn't realize the cat was almost completely black until the 3rd episode. It's a really well written show with fleshed out characters. Reggies background reveal showed why he moved the way he did and it was understandable.

Bro, it's so good. This from a senior aged black American - I hope it blows up.

it's 4am here in dallas tx and i just finished binge watching the 6 episodes. I had to see who Rapman was to give props. I can't think of a more well written and thought out super hero series. I don't know how this interviewer didn't ask when we can expect season 2 though...

Proven over and over... when we're left alone to do our thing, people and money always follow. Keep it coming Rapman✊🏿

One of the best shows I’ve watched in a very long time… All of my friends here in NYC can’t stop talking about it… It’s wild how many of the characters seem like they are straight out of NYC!!! Bravo Brethren… Bravo!!!

Just binge watched all 6 episodes, now taking a break while making another round of popcorn before start watching them from beginning. No sleeping tonight! This is worthy .

Rapman you are amazing and inspiring.. You have entered Big Time now. I watched you show twice and I was more impressed with the character development, dialogue and polished filmography. Much respect. Season 2 please and more projects

I hope Neflix doesn't try to control his creativity.

Only 2&1/2 episodes in and I'm HOOKED! Came looking for an interview as I had not previously heard of the series, but SO glad I found it. Immensly entertaining and completely relevant to some important social issues that need more awareness. Already hoping for a season 2.
