This one-hour special show will be honoring historic Black icons, both past and present, alongside superheroes, period dramas, vampires and a very special re-imagining of the cult film “The Last Dragon” with guest stars like rapper Phonte Coleman, Michael Ealy, Jemele Hill, Lil Rel Howery, John Legend, The Roots, Mario Van Peebles and many more.
“Sherman’s Showcase’ host, Sherman McDaniels, has dreamed of doing a Black History Month episode for decades,” said creators and stars Salahuddin and Riddle.
Credit to IFC and AMC, his dream is finally here to get actualized. Black History Month was in February albeit, but Sherman said ‘No, trust me, let’s hold off until the world undergoes some fundamental change that forces everyone to stay at home and watch the Showcase.’
And to those itching to be a part of the virtual party, you can catch Sherman and the crew on Hulu, iTunes, Google Play, Amazon and XBOX. Full-length versions of the songs from the series are available via digital release and vinyl from Mad Decent, the Los Angeles-based record label founded by Thomas Wesley Pentz, popularly called Diplo.
