Emotional Black Male
Thumamna Ndikuhlekise
Comedy / Graham Hotel

Emotional Black Male is a hilarious, heart-cracking, soul-sipping comedy special from the mind of Uncool Tea - the softest hard guy you know. In this hour of pure emotional chaos (and clarity), he tackles toxic masculinity, township tenderness, and therapy-talk with a mic in one hand.

But wait, there’s levels. Making a surprise entrance is Uncool’s rap alter ego, BubbleRap, the only rapper who spits bars and boundaries. Because sometimes, you need a beat to say what your heart can’t. He’s popping — emotionally and lyrically.
