The Problem With Black Folks Like Monique

Angryman Radio

So recently the well know Comedian Monique, yall know Monique has sounded the trumpet for everyone to boycott the streaming service Netflix. Why is this? Well, She was recently offered $500,000 for a comedy special. Now the reason why this is a problem is that Amy Schumer was offered $11,000,000. Not only was she offered 11,000,000 but she was actually able to negotiate a higher sum to the tune of $13,000,000. Needless to say, Monique was outraged. Immediately, She and her husband wanted to know why there was such a vast difference between her, the veteran and the relatively new Amy Schumer. After failed negotiations with Netflix Monique decided to go on Sway’s radio show to voice her outrage. She cited female discrimination due to the fact that comedians like Dave Chappelle And Chris Rock were also offered millions by the streaming service. This, however, wasn’t a surprise considering Dave and Chris have always commanded high salaries. Aside from that She also cited racial discrimination due to the fact that her fellow black female comedians were also offered less than a million dollars. Well, there’s a couple things at play here, and I’ll do my best to dissect them all. Firstly, Monique was first black balled a while back for doing something that put her out of the good graces of Hollywood. Something that has happened to numerous people. What she doesn’t realize is she’s still being punished. Not only for doing what she did to be black balled, but have the nerve to actually raise hell about it. And make no mistake. I’m not saying she should’ve taken it lying down. But for every action there’s an opposite but equal reaction. And Hollywood is a truly cut-throat town. Not saying you shouldn’t fight, but there are ways to fight.
