Shadows Over Paramount: The Evolution of Corruption between The Ellison Family & An American President - Outside The Gates of Paramount & Summers on The Strip with M3 & The Chosen Ones of Love Street
<p>#Worldstarhiphop I’ve got a generational talent for you and #Cocacola & #Mercedesbenz or #BMW to launch with a weekly TV series to go with it all outside the gates of #ParamountPictures<br>What so many people haven't understood about the journey I've walked is this was never just about me. Before I attempted to acquire Paramount, maybe it was. I destroyed so many relationships while I was an addict, the biggest of which was with the only woman I've ever loved. God, the Creator, has a funny way of walking you through hell and then placing mirrors in front of you, forcing you to stare into them long enough until you finally wake up into a new life.<br></p><p>That's exactly what happened to me last summer. I met someone who believed in me enough that believed we could change our lives together. Without me ever asking to manage him, he put me on the phone with his mother outside the Canyon Country Store on Love Street and introduced me to her as his manager to my surprise. It was never something I chose. It was something the Creator, chose for me.<br></p><p>That moment blessed me with the opportunity to see his talent the same way he saw mine, and together, with my brother Judah Johnson, Paul Angel, Kimeyo Daniels, Tommy Bina and several other incredible people, we began building a music collective with the relationships, purpose, and vision to help change the world for the next generation of children rooted in LOVE and the legacy of Canyon Country Store - Laurel Canyon, CA<br></p><p>Every single piece of it came through the pursuit of Paramount, a journey that is now finally aligned the way it was always meant to be, helping support America's oldest historically Black boarding school. M3 welcomed me into his world, trusted me with his music, and literally walked with me through the gates, of Paramount. Together we've created and filmed last year multiple shows, including Summers on The Strip, From Compton To The Top, and Outside The Gates - all starring the generational talent who's as raw and real as they come, M3. Hollywood isn't ready for what is about to be unleashed. His voice has the power to move mountains because of the life he's lived.<br></p><p>This has never been about fame. It has always been about setting the artists free. It has always been about setting children free. And this is only the beginning. David Leepson... all of it was real everything I always told you and the billions that were raised and we documented all of it and are now having a world changing music festival that is fully prepared with icons involved unleashing in November. We really need to talk, because now there's a lot more than just some ideas. </p><p><br></p><p>#blockthemerger #rap #music #venicebeach #paramount <br></p>

Shadows Over Paramount: The Evolution of Corruption between The Ellison Family & An American President - Chapter One 'Rise for Piney Woods School' Part Three
<p>In Part Three, I tell the story of two of my closest friends in the entertainment industry, <u><strong>DeRay Davis and Keifer Moore</strong></u>, both of whom I met while making <strong>Grow House</strong>, the film that helped launch my producing career. I share behind-the-scenes stories from the production and the night of the premiere, when DeRay left our after-party, hosted his own celebration, and <u><strong>introduced me to RZA</strong></u> for the very first time. We raised a bottle together that night, setting in motion the path that would eventually lead to Cut Throat City. Simply put, because of DeRay Davis, I have the career I have today.</p><p>I also reflect on making <strong>The Con Is On</strong> in New York City with Keifer Moore,<u><strong> how his career led him to Death Row Films working alongside Snoop Dogg</strong></u>, and how, years later, a chance meeting with <u><strong>M3</strong></u> in a Denny’s parking lot across from Paramount's corporate offices changed everything. After calling Keifer that night, we started building a new vision:<strong> a music business and media platform in partnership with Piney Woods School </strong>designed to generate annual tuition funding through music, comedy festivals, film, television, and <u><strong>The Chosen Ones of Love Street</strong></u>, with DeRay Davis and M3 helping lead that vision forward.</p><p>The world is introduced to M3 through exclusive audio segments from the television series on his life <strong>From Compton to the Top</strong>, along with previews of <strong>Outside the Gates of Paramount</strong><strong> </strong>and the variety late night talk show series <strong>Summers on the Strip</strong>, starring DeRay Davis, Keifer Moore, M3, <u><strong>Tommy Bina</strong></u>, <u><strong>Judah Johnson</strong></u>, and myself.</p><p>The episode features the song <strong>“Outside a Denny’s Parking Lot”</strong> by <strong>The Chosen Ones of Love Street</strong>.</p><p>I discuss how every step of this journey has been another battle and introduce<u><strong> Academy Award nominee David Womark (</strong></u><u><strong>Life of Pi</strong></u><u><strong>)</strong></u>, my partner during our attempt to acquire Paramount. I also share our vision for the LoveOlution movement, M3’s role within it, and our connection to the Jackson 5 masters through Donn Bennett and Henry Vaccaro.</p><p>From there, I issue a public invitation to <strong>Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson</strong> regarding the long-awaited reboot of Big Trouble in Little China. Alongside the films original producer <u><strong>Larry Franco</strong></u>, who partnered with David Womark and me in forming our alliance with Piney Woods School, we discuss our vision for several projects, as well as our plans with John Carpenter to reboot <strong>They Live</strong>, who on my 40th birthday got his blessing that if we could get it going he would join us. The episode includes portions of a Zoom conversation with Larry Franco and David Womark as they discuss the future of the nonprofit studio we are building at Piney Woods School and my journey into my dreams as a director, with them leading me as producers.</p><p>The episode continues with the song <strong>“The Love Is Coming to the People in Mississippi”</strong> by <strong>The Chosen Ones of Love Street</strong>.</p><p>Listeners are also introduced to<u><strong> Fabian Alomar</strong></u>, who shares powerful testimony about his own life journey and the path that brought him into this movement.</p><p><strong>Hear audio from January 2, 2025, when Tommy Bina, David Womark, Fabian Alomar, and I stood together on Lookout Mountain.</strong> Four men representing American, Puerto Rican, Israeli, Iranian, and Chinese heritage, united around Project Rise, our Paramount acquisition effort, and our partnership with Piney Woods School to build a nonprofit film and television studio dedicated to future generations.</p><p>I then break down the complete <u><strong>LoveOlution ecosystem</strong></u>, explaining how its four pillar foundations work together and the long-term vision behind the movement.</p><p>The episode concludes with a final message to The Rock, inviting him to help us create opportunity for children at Piney Woods, in addition to pitching the vision for Big Trouble in Little China alongside its original producers, reimagined as a continued story centered on brotherhood during a time of war.</p><p>Featured next is the song <strong>“Three Giants in a Hallway”</strong>, inspired by David Womark, Larry Franco, and Joey Stanton, performed by <strong>The Chosen Ones of Love Street</strong>.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
