Description: Created by writer, producer, actor, and director Keenen Ivory Wayans, the series gave voice to the African American experience in a way that was absent in other sketch comedy shows. The show addressed race relations, cultural stereotypes, politics, and pop culture from an African American point of view and featured a predominantly Black cast. Filmed in front of a studio audience, the 30-minute episodes were a mixture of comedy sketches, dance routines, and musical performances that celebrated hip-hop culture.
