Terrence Howard has also talked about his problems with unfair pay, especially on shows like “Empire” and “Hustle and Flow.”
Influential people like 50 Cent, who supports his cause and calls for fair pay in Hollywood, have joined his call.
Some other black singers, like Taraji P.
Fanstasia Barrino and Taraji P. Henson have also talked about how hard it is to be underpaid and undervalued in the business. They are still fighting for equal pay and respect, even though they have done a lot.
Cat Williams joins the group and isn’t afraid to speak out against power abuse and exploitation in Hollywood. He wants leaders in the industry to take responsibility.
He doesn’t feel bad about talking about the harsh realities of the business because he thinks that those who do bad things will soon have to face the consequences.
Collectively, Crews, Howard, Williams, and their peers are committed to exposing systemic injustices and fighting for a more fair and inclusive Hollywood where everyone, regardless of race or gender, gets the credit and pay they earn.
