I have waited, and waited (and waited) for the start of the second season of what is possibly the funniest web series ever.
I can’t remember exactly how I discovered Awkward Black Girl, but I know that Jay, Nina and Baby Voice Darius are just hilarious. It’s pure genius how Issa Rae and her people have managed to take everyday awkwardness and make it funny. Each episode has me cringing and gasping and shaking my head and exclaiming “eish!” a lot, because it’s all so damn true!
Jay speaks to my life, and this is why I am so excited to see her back on my screen tomorrow night.
Here’s one of Jay’s newest “angry raps”. Side-splitting, as usual.
“…working on my anger, though- one day at a time. I hope they all DIE, but I won’t commit the crime…”
She’s my hero. Especially when she “introduces” Pharrell’s I Am Other premium YouTube channel (on which the season 2 pilot episode will premiere) at 1:32. Wow.
Do yourself a favour and check this amazing series out- once you come out from the massive rock you’ve been hiding under, that is.
After that, click through to watch The Number on the YouTube channel Black & Sexy TV.
At the rate these people are going, DStv will soon be relegated to cassette tape status in my life.
