This is part 3.5 in OP's series of Black Histroy Month posts. She has covered the Amandla Stenberg's TV static performance in Where Hands Touch, black female musicians in rock and country, some Afrofuturism tracks for the cookout, and tried to list every black female rapper in existence who is not Belcalis Almanzar. Well, it's time to take a look

I think FKA twigs has directed at least 10 music videos and she did a fantastic video for Nike.

Here's Pendulum, on her YT channel:

I love how she mentions learning how to direct/film as she goes by watching Youtube tutorials too

Love this post. Love that women are getting into directing. And I listen to Neneh Cherry too

OP thank you for this post. It's frustrating seeing someone like Cole Bennett, who has no talent, become so successful as a director/cinematographer. His visuals are trash and every director in this post is so much better yet much less prolific than him.

When making this, I knew of Jenn, Lacey and Akinola off the top of my head so I went off to Google some more people and I kept seeing Cole Bennett. Then when I saw a pic of him looking like both Logan and Jake Paul I just hung my head in shame.
