Drum Major Hustle

Drum Major Hustle

Labels: Tyler Perry

I can talk about how bad I think Tyler Perry's movies and plays are, but one thing is for sure, I can't knock the man's hustle! He's turned his series of recurring themes into a virtual goldmine. He's hustled film companies into great distribution deals, full DVD proceeds, got TBS to give him $200 million for 100 episodes of one of the worst TV shows ever and still keeps his operating budget around $6 million per film.


How has he done it? He's leveraged the fact that Negroes are starving for mindless entertainment and he is the Drum Major leading folks to theaters and television sets. So, the film companies and TBS throw money at him because he makes them money, because you make him money! Tyler Perry is the best pimp since Goldie! Nigga can you buy that?!?
