Fund The Black Tube

Fund TheBlackTube

Help us raise $100,000 by June 19th for the grand opening of TBT Studios LA — A Creative Sanctuary designed and inspired for Black Creators.

This funding fuels the next generation of media entrepreneurs through content creation, education, mentorship, and infrastructure designed for creators, by creators.

What We’re Building

TBT Studios LA will be a 3-level hybrid space for video production, podcasting, music creation, and youth mentorship. It will serve as the flagship content hub for TheBlackTube.com — a safe, monetizable platform for family-friendly and faith-based creators.

Our Vision & Investment Opportunity

As founders, we are not just building a platform—we’re building a movement.

Our Vision

The Black Tube is a digital platform and physical content studio dedicated to empowering Black creators through ownership, visibility, and financial control. Our goal is to build the first faith-driven, culturally rooted, creator-owned video-on-demand and social media ecosystem that rivals mainstream platforms, without silencing our voices or limiting our value.

Strategy

We are growing a boutique network of breakthrough creators—starting with ten handpicked talents like ItsJFunk—to develop viral content, monetize IP, and create equity-backed media. TBT Studios LA is our flagship headquarters, where creators develop shows, music, podcasts, and films designed to live on TheBlackTube.com and beyond.
