First Trailer For Netflix’s Animated ‘Good Times’ Series Arrives, X Users Say This Is Not DY-NO-MITE

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Sony Pictures Entertainment / Netflix / Good Times Good Times is back—well, sort of. Netflix dropped the first trailer for the upcoming animated series, and it did not go over well with social media. The animated Good Times project focuses on the new generation of the Evans family. While the names have changed, the struggle for the Evans family remains the same. The adult-themed satirical cartoon, which arrives on the streaming platform on April 12, stars J.B. Smoove (Reggie Evans), Yvette Nicole Brown (Beverly Evans), Jay Pharoah (Junior Evans), Marsai Martin (Grey Evans), Gerald “Slink” Johnson (Dalvin Evans) and Rashida “Sheedz” Olayiwola (Lashes by Lisa). Source: Sony Pictures Entertainment / Netflix / Good Times The official synopsis for the show reads: An animated reboot of the Norman Lear series finds the latest generation of the Evans family, cab driver Reggie and his wife, the ever-aspirational Beverly, scratching and surviving in one of the last remaining housing projects in Chicago along with their teenage artist son, Junior, activist daughter Grey, and drug dealing infant son, Dalvin. It turns out the more things change, the more they stay the same, and keeping your head above water in a system with its knee on your neck is as challenging as ever. The only thing tougher than life is love, but in this family there’s more than enough to go around. [embedded content] X Users Are Not Feeling Good Times The negative reactions to the trailer were immediate, with many focusing on the fact people like NBA hooper Steph Curry and Family Guy/American Dad creator Seth McFarlane are involved in the project as producers that follow a family growing up in the projects while never experiencing that kind of life themselves. Other complaints focus on the show just not being a terrible reimagining of the original 70s sitcom that is full of racist stereotypes despite its predominately Black cast and showrunner, Ranada Shepard. Carl Jones Clarifies His Involvement, Yvette Nicole Brown Shuts Down Haters In Her Mentions Many also felt the show was trying to emulate The Boondocks’ style, which is ironic because Boondock’s creator, Carl Jones, was involved with the show at one point but revealed in a post on X that he left due to “creative differences.” Yvette Nicole Brown even had to respond to people questioning her about her involvement in the “racist” show. She followed up with a thread telling them no is forcing them to watch the show and explaining why she took on the role in the show. Is The Immediate Fallout Justified? Source: Sony Pictures Entertainment / Netflix / Good Times The immediate negative reactions to the Good Times trailer and people hoping for the show to fail also raise the question, are we too harsh on TV shows and movies geared towards us? White folks have shows like this all the time: King of The Hill, The Simpsons, Family Guy, and American Dad, and they have all gone on to be successful, spawning many seasons. All those shows depict White America’s tropes in a jokingly and, sometimes, serious light. So when it comes to a show like Good Times that is trying to do the same, even though we can’t immediately tell that based on a three-minute trailer, is that fair? Good Times is no different from Eddie Murphy’s stop-motion-animation show The PJs or Jones’ The Boondocks; the main complaints just seem to focus on the names regarding the production aspect. But as we lawd the original show, we can’t ignore the fact a white man was instrumental in bringing that show to television across the country. We shall reserve judgment and see if this show is Dy-No-Mite when it arrives next month. You can see more reactions in the gallery below. 2. We understand 5. Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur is phenomenal, just hope y’all watching and not just talking 6. Another good show to watch, before Max scrubs it from existence 7. Well, Stewie killed his mom on Family Guy, just saying.

Alek Olsen’s ‘Someday I’ll Get It’ Rules TikTok Billboard Top 50

Alek Olsen’s “Someday I’ll Get It” becomes the latest song to top the TikTok Billboard Top 50, vaulting 19-1 on the March 30-dated survey. The TikTok Billboard Top 50 is a weekly ranking of the most popular songs on TikTok in the United States based on creations, video views and user engagement. The latest chart reflects activity March 18-24. Activity on TikTok is not included in Billboard charts except for the TikTok Billboard Top 50. As previously noted, titles that are part of Universal Music Group’s catalog are currently unavailable on TikTok. The ascent of “Someday I’ll Get It” comes in just its second week on the TikTok Billboard Top 50, as it debuted at No. 19 on the March 23 list. The lo-fi acoustic track has exploded on TikTok due to a trend using the song with creators either reminiscing about deceased pets or showing some of said pets’ final days. Explore See latest videos, charts and news See latest videos, charts and news [embedded content] As a result, much of the sound’s usage also shows people reacting to having seen the pet trend all over their For You Page, often taking photos or videos of themselves in tears. Trending on Billboard Concurrently, “Someday I’ll Get It” bows at No. 24 on Billboard’s multimetric Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart, Olsen’s first appearance on a tally that isn’t populated by TikTok data. It starts via 2.6 million official U.S. streams March 15-21, up 126% from 1.2 million the previous frame, according to Luminate. “Someday I’ll Get It” takes No. 1 on the TikTok Billboard Top 50 from Djo’s “End of Beginning,” which falls to No. 2 – though it continues to rise on other Billboard charts, nearing the Billboard Hot 100 top 10 by jumping 21-11. Beyonce’s “Texas Hold ‘Em” and Dasha’s “Austin,” a pair of country songs previously discussed due to their trends featuring line dances as the main driver for their activity, follow at Nos. 3 and 4, respectively, and Benson Boone’s “Beautiful Things” rounds out the top five. The week’s top debut is G-Eazy’s “Lady Killers II (Christoph Andersson Remix),” which bows at No. 7.“Lady Killers” was initially released in 2012 as part of G-Eazy’s album Must Be Nice, while the new version premiered March 17. The remix’s move onto streaming services was no coincidence; it was released after the Andersson remix went viral on TikTok in the past month. G-Eazy himself got in on the fun with a lip-synching clip announcing the song’s wide release while also adhering to the “Lady Killers II” general trend, which aligns with the “Make her disappear just like poof/ Then she’s gone” line, with the creator turning off the light illuminating them previously after the verse is said. “Lady Killers II” snagged 758,000 official U.S. streams in its first week of release and will continue to rise during the April 6-dated Billboard tracking week (March 22-28). The original “Lady Killers” also sported a sizable bump: 1.5 million streams March 15-21, up 125%. Madison Beer’s “Make You Mine” also reaches the TikTok Billboard Top 50 for the first time, launching 18-10 in its second week on the survey. The sound, which largely highlights the song’s opening “I wanna feel, feel, feel/ Wanna taste, taste, taste/ Wanna get you goin’” refrain, has been used a variety of ways, from lip synchs to hair tutorials to fancam edits. “Make You Mine” is currently bubbling under the Hot 100. It earned 3.4 million official U.S. streams March 15-21, up 1%. It’s also Beer’s first Pop Airplay appearance since 2021 (“Reckless”), having reached No. 34 so far. See the full TikTok Billboard Top 50 here. You can also tune in each Friday to SiriusXM’s TikTok Radio (channel 4) to hear the premiere of the chart’s top 10 countdown at 3 p.m. ET, with reruns heard throughout the week.

Jumbo Returns to U.S. Stage After 10-Year Hiatus: ‘It’s a Great Reason to Celebrate’

After a decade-long absence, Jumbo, a cornerstone of Latin alternative rock, are making their return to the U.S. stage, joining forces with genre peers División Minúscula. Their much-anticipated comeback follows years of setbacks due to a “critical error” that led to visa complications, preventing them from touring stateside despite the release of three albums brimming with tour-worthy material. Explore Explore See latest videos, charts and news See latest videos, charts and news Now, armed with renewed vigor and passion, the Mexican rock band — consisting of frontman Clemente Castillo, guitarist Jorge “Flip” Tamez, bassist Carlos Castro, drummer Alberto Ramos, and producer Iñigo Rizo — are ready to captivate audiences once again as they crisscross the United States, hitting major cities from coast to coast. Promoted by Live Nation, the tour kicks off in Chicago on April 17, followed by a show in New York City the next day. The tour route includes stops in Salt Lake City, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Dallas, and culminates in Houston, Texas on August 14. Celebrating 25 years since the release of their debut album, Restaurant, in 1999, Jumbo’s significance extends beyond mere longevity. This album not only marked a milestone in the band’s career but also played a pivotal role in shaping the Mexican music scene of its time, particularly the musical boom known as La Avanzada Regia scene of that era in Monterrey. Trending on Billboard “The grand merit of that generation was to be able to break [barriers] and show that in a city where there was no music scene suddenly thundered and became so big,” Flip (real name Jorge Tamez Chapa) tells Billboard Español. “Plastilina Mosh was nothing like Zurdok, which was nothing like La Flor de Lingo, or Niña, or Kinky. Unconsciously we valued being original, and I think that created a very rich movement. Thirty years later it is beginning to be romanticized a lot. I feel very proud to be from that generation”. Jumbo. Photo Credit: Juan Rodrigo Llaguno Juan Rodrigo Llaguno “División Minúscula and Jumbo are two bands with different backgrounds but equally important in the alternative rock genre. They belong to an era that defined many fans on both sides of the border,” adds Manuel Moran, vp of Latin touring at Live Nation. “We are proud to be part of this great celebration and we are very grateful for the trust they have placed in us to surprise their fans in the United States with a comeback tour and an unexpected collaboration like this one.” Jumbo’s latest release, Manual De Viaje A Un Lugar Lejano (En Directo), earned them a Latin Grammy nomination for best pop/rock album in 2019, further solidifying their status as stalwarts of the Latin alternative rock scene. In this interview, Flip delves into the band’s journey, from the highs of success to the challenges they’ve faced along the way, shedding light on their experiences and aspirations for the future. And yes, he explains why they could not enter the U.S. for over a decade. What does it mean for you to take the stage again in the United States, and how did the opportunity to collaborate with División Minúscula for this tour come up? We are very happy to tour the United States and celebrate 25 years of our career. We had an issue, a very serious mistake we made that kept us away from the United States for more than ten years. During the first albums Restaurant (1999), D.D. y Ponle Play (2001), and Teleparque (2003), we had great tours over there. We were building a market early in our career. Saúl Hernández from Jaguares invited us to be openers along with Julieta Venegas and La Gusana Ciega. I remember they were incredible tours, and suddenly there’s this break. Many years went by — and fortunately we managed to overcome this — and now we have the opportunity to share the stage with División Minúscula. Although they are from Matamoros, most of them have been living here in Monterrey for many years. They are very good friends. It’s the first time we do a tour as such and we are very happy; I think it’s going to be very fun. Jumbo. Photo Credit: Juan Rodrigo Llaguno Juan Rodrigo Llaguno As you celebrate these 25 years, what do you consider has been the key to staying together as a band? It’s very difficult. The other day I read a report by Sting that said, “I don’t think any grown man can be in a band.” He said it had to do with this youth gang dynamic that gets a little lost as you get older. And you notice that the relationship does change — you change as a person, you are no longer that youth [from before] — but I think we are still united by the desire to make music. Jumbo is a band that from day one, we set out to make songs that would go beyond the barrier of time. We were never very attached to any fashion — although when we came out, we sounded like what was going on in the early 2000s. In our journey, we have seen many things come and go. We’ve had to change formats, first digital, then streaming. Many things have happened to us that I think the love of making music has brought us back into alignment. Fortunately, we have never fought or disrespected each other, but we have an admiration for each of the members. And although at times we do have different artistic goals and visions, it always ends up falling in the same place. Many of us in the band are producers of other projects, we have other activities, but all related to music. As long as there are people who lend us their ears, there is no reason to stop. The 25 years was a number that hit us like a motherf–ker. It’s a great reason to celebrate. Being one of the pioneers of La Avanzada Regia movement in Monterrey, how do you see the impact of this movement on today’s music, and what do you think has been your most significant contribution to this legacy? I always say that I’m very proud to be from that generation. I grew up playing in many bands, and it didn’t cross my mind to dedicate myself professionally to this, or to be signed by a record label or go on tour. And suddenly the scene was big enough, the Monterrey scene. There were like 10 to 15 bands playing in four or five places, and the rest was the audience. This is before the internet — I mean, we took our flyers to the show and handed them out to perform the following week. La Avanzada, we were very united as bands; there was the same hunger to go out and dream, to take this to the next level. Monterrey, being the industrial capital of the country, had a very rigid scheme of opportunities. You had to study, work in one of the big companies, and make your life. It was very difficult to dream of a profession outside those schemes. The great merit of that generation was to be able to break [barriers] and demonstrate that in a city where there was no professional music scene it could become so big, and in a few years permeate the Latin market so strongly. [embedded content] When Control Machete came out, it a huge boom that the rest of Latin America turned to see what was happening in Monterrey. They were looking for a hip-hop movement, but they found something very different. Plastilina Mosh was nothing like Zurdok, which was nothing like La Flor de Lingo, or Niña, or Kinky. Unconsciously we valued very much being original, not looking like anybody else and I think that created a very rich movement. Thirty years later this scene is beginning to be romanticized a lot. What’s next after the tour? Any final thoughts? One goal that we had for many years was to get back to the United States in some way. I think the next thing after this tour is to get into the studio. There are no concrete plans yet. I’ll tell you the anecdote so that there is no mystery; I think it’s something that new [foreign] bands learn from. We made the very serious mistake of going to a show with a tourist visa. The work visa has a shorter amount of time. It happens to [foreign] bands that the work visa has a short period of time. Suddenly there is an isolated show, and even though we had an arrangement with the promoter that could be for promotion, we got too close to the line and fell into a problem. So, it doesn’t matter if you’re going to play a free show, it doesn’t matter if you’re going to tour very casually. Playing in the U.S. is work, and that cost us to stay away for many years. If it’s any moral for bands, don’t make that mistake. We learned the hard way and fortunately we are back. We are really excited. We had a hard time having three albums and not being able to tour there. So we bring all that accumulated energy and we are sure you will notice it in the shows.
