The more I learn about the Black kids in this scene and about Basquiat, the more I realize how amazing they were. It takes courage and a deep understanding of self to move in spaces where we’re in the minority. I’m grateful for them being unapologetically punk and Black🙏🏾🖤

He should've entitled it "Basquiat and I."

This dude continuously compares himself to Basquiat and it’s really annoying. Nobody cares about his little movie that he directed either. We just wanted to hear about Basquiat.
