"I'm most thankful for Aint' Too Proud's performance last year (yay there's gonna be another one this year) because it gives hope to young artists of color that they'll have a place in the arts and that they can play actual people, not just a thug or a slave or a bellhop." -@contecameron1 on Twitter
