The animated series on Max follows a young Black family getting back on its feet after the mother is struck by illness. The show is a spin-off from an Oscar-winning short film by Matthew A. Cherry.
Issa Rae provides the voice of Angela, a hair stylist who is nervous enough about returning to her old salon that she circles Zuri's school several times in the morning, delaying the drop-off to avoid going back to work.
Music fans will recognize rap star and actor Scott Mescudi – aka, Kid Cudi – as Zuri's dad Stephen, an aspiring hip hop producer who learned to microwave frozen pancakes for breakfast and used zip ties to corral his daughter's hair while Angela was in the hospital. "I'm going to act like I didn't hear any of that," Angela says, after learning about Stephen's shortcuts.
Rae and Mescudi are joined by veteran character actors Harry Lennix and Loretta Devine, who play Angela's old-school parents, and Brooke Monroe Conaway shines as Zuri, who sounds super cute and innocent, even when she's cutting up.This is the bustling, beautiful Black family at the heart of.
The kicker at the film's end: The woman coaching in the video was Angela, who was waiting for Zuri and Stephen to pick her up from the hospital. As Zuri hugs her, we see the treatments have taken Angela's hair away., crafting both projects to celebrate and normalize Black hair and Black families., we see moments when they're like any other family — Millennial parents struggling to balance work, home and an unexpected health scare.
