Cinematographer Lawrence Sher said it was not intentional but he sees it as well and finds it so cool. That’s just the universe being on your side through the creative process. These happy accidents are always beautiful.

diss track is so damn corny. Does Nick Cannon know what a diss is? Because last time I checked, Eminem raising a kid that’s not his own because that kids parents wanted nothing to do with her is superhero shit in my book. But ok Nick. Do your thing.

Honestly, my whole life, being middle eastern felt like a curse. From the hate and abuse I received to the countless jobs I didn’t get because of my name, I wanted to escape who I was.
But now, I’m proud to be me. And I plan to show others that being yourself is enough.
