Bill Duke spoke to VladTV about choosing happiness over stability with his acting career, as he explained that he watched too many people in his family work in jobs they hated and die soon after retiring. He went on to speak about teaching kids in his foundation about the entertainment business and encouraging them to use the internet to put their talents out and not wait to be discovered. Bill also spoke about his upcoming and current projects, including Black Lightning on the CW, Mandy starring Nicolas Cage, and High Flying Bird, which director Steven Soderbergh filmed entirely on an iPhone 8.

BiG BoSS fRedo G.i.P
Perfectly said my dude 👌🏾👌🏾
Be dropping mad jewels..
I respect this man, real stand up man in a world of weakness.
He's a very wise man! ❤️
No such thing as a weak world. Only weak men
There is something wrong with a world where we choose green paper over our true happiness and dreams for life.
It is how society is setup. They make us feel if we don't have money, we have nothing.
Cause ppl have bills to pay
Its all about dumb masses obeying without thinking.
If I'm old enough to get a job I'm getting that god dam job idec if I don't like it because this society makes paper money better then a iPhone
Nobody wants to b under a bridge fyck dat shit money over happiness MOH....
"Don't wait to be discovered. Discover yourself." Damn.
This video is hard for me to watch... because it's forcing me to think about things that I know I'm supposed to be doing...but I don't want to step out of my comfort zone...
If dont do it now you'll never do it
That's the only way you'll grow....to cross the ocean you have to lose sight of land....
+ Mr. Hester. Out of all of the Comments I've read thus far, your initial Post, is the most sincere & self-reflective Comment, I've read yet; I appreciate & Respect, this sort of Honesty -- it's rare that I see it, on these Types of Videos.
Terrica J There’s No Time For Patience. Literally. He Knows What He Wants to Do. He Need to Just Plan ASAP & Get to it ASAP
Same here bro, your not alone
“Passion without a plan equals frustration”. Dope. ✊🏾
i WILL become a successful artist 💯
Law of attraction, work hard and it will come.
Go ahead & speak it into existence!❤️✌🏾✊🏾
@Kenny420 Just as God is God all by himself, I don't believe he will need anyone. God will get him to where he needs to be. He will be successful without having to sell his soul. That's called having faith!
Amen
JaySamoreTheGreat Right on, make it happen!
Bill Duke is a very wise man love listening to him speak
Bill Duke Is one of the niceness persons I have ever had the pleasure to meet. I was out at the Elephant Bar in California with my family and I turned around and spotted him. He was with a group of people and he stopped and took the time to greet me and talk to me as I informed him, how Ive been a fan of his work since I was a kid. Then he shook my hand and gave me a hug. I was so impressed with him in the movies and films but ,I was more impressed with the man I met in person, Great man! your fan forever.
Cool story.
Elephant Bar in the Valley?

It is highly possible and ADVISABLE in today's world to pursue your creative passion while also obtaining professional credentials, a trade, or a job as plans B, C, and/or D. Chile, if you can sing, you betta SANG. I don't care if it's in a nightclub, a roadhouse bar, a trap house, or online. Do it all!
That shirt is so crisp.
The contrast makes ya eyes hurt
Jamie Lawrington I thought it was me
I ain't never seen or heard Vlad praise a man so much
Vlad might drink his bath water......🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️
He's respected. Bill Duke is pretty much a Pioneer. The fact is able to do so much as a black man, in a time when it was pretty bad still for black men, says a lot.
That's because Bill Duke is his own man, with his own rules.
kjdnyhmghfvb Word plus he never wore a dress or got shot in his ass in a movie
I ordered Bill Duke's book today. My man!
There is a lawyer right now that hates his job and there is a fast food worker who would love that job and there is a homeless man that would truly enjoy working fast food, it's all perspective....learn to love what you're doing. Be the best at whatever you are doing
People who learn to love what they do forsake what they were born to do.
Girl yes to the lawyer comment but the fast food one unmmm yea no one wants to do that shit
@@cliffhuxtable436 it was figurative, seeing as the homeless person has went years without the sensation of being around food all the time.
Yea the lawyer hate his job because he followed money and not passion.
Murk yes I understand it was figurative but food is easy to come by. Livable wages ehhh not so much
Much respect for this dude
They should have never took Static Shock off the air that cartoon was the first and last black superhero show I seen.
Just Bcuz facts
I didn’t know Bill Duke create Static Shock.
I never wanna hear Vlad called a culture vulture again. He gave more positive content to the community in 2018 than damn near all of the other platforms.
Factx vlad does more than most interviewers but he still a police we cant take that away from him
I wont lie, he kinda won me back over with this one. The Ryan Davis one, and the Godfrey/Lord Jamar too.
Zo Rose facts
Maybe so, but he used others to drop knowledge. It's still culture vulturing !
yeah speak for your self. A broken clock is right twice a day.
Vlad gives us the guests and asks the questions we want to hear. If nobody else does it, good on him FOR DOING IT.
Words of Encouragement & Motivation : if ANYBODY that’s working a job they hate, please realize y’all are capable of changing that. If you working a job you hate whether it’s a lot of money or not, invest that money into your goals and visions that you want to achieve and accomplish. Ya got ONE☝🏾 life to live, please make the best out of it. Don’t die unhappy
I loved every one of these Bill Duke interviews. Salute to the OG 💯✊🏾 and shout out Vlad for a great interview.
I took his actors boot camp in Miami in 2003.
Thats the definition of being rich.
Loving what you do.
True shit,
I work for two restaurants and writing a series of novels to which my own mom and or her hubby (my stepdad) doesn't know the content behind. My mom had the nerve to tell me that I'm limiting myself to working hard labor whereas she's a daycare owner.
This is the same woman who's married to a 60 something out of touch white dude believe you should chase money to be stable even if you hate the job.
I'm 29 and I have a shit ton of writers, editors, publishers, and other creative people supporting and hyping up my books. From writing my books I will look to getting my books made into an adaptation whether in a movie series, TV show, Comic book, or video games. From there I already typed up what type of charity i want to create. All of this from someone working 8am to 4pm, never truly experienced the college bullshit, and still have a bright future.
What i'm getting to is you should assemble your support team and be prepare to receive haters, doubters, and Shills who believe your way of making money isn't the out of touch way of making money.
I'm in the process of shooting a video with a iPhone now
MARLEY GANGTV you can do it!
Go for it
Hell yeah. I refuse to be that 40 year old who regrets never trying. I may fail and fail and fail and fail and fail and fail again... but I tried.
This Vlad character ain't so bad after all. He coming around...
It depends on the caliber of the guest.
The wisdom of Mr. Duke is impeccable. Gem after gem. #Respect
This man looks and reminds me of my GPa...😢 making me miss him. ❤️🙏🏾
Funny how "God/The Fates" drop this stuff on you when you need it most.
I lost my secure gig... Am now single, near broke... Basically nowhere to go but up.
My family and friends think I'm nuts... Because after Christmas brunch I'm flying out of Miami to hike the SW USA and am going to camp, couchsurf and do stand-up gigs and whatever other odd jobs as I work my way up the west coast and am going to document the whole thing for a later video/book.
They love me... But are all screaming for me to "get a solid/"normal job" and settle down" (again) 🤗
Nope... Time for an early mid-life crisis adventure!
🎶Life's only what you make it worth,
Freedom should be life since the day of birth.
Ashes to ashes till I knap in dirt, I'll stay fluent in the language of the Universe!🎶
Thanks for this Vlad & Bill! 🍻👍
Update?
What no flashbacks! I for sure thought that Tyrin Turner flashback was gone show up lol
Bill Duke is a very wise man.
I'll choose 9 to 5 over hollyweird any day. My personal opinion.
Speak on it. I'll take the everyday norm and my sanity over that weird shit any day.
Don’t think his idea is limited to hollyweird or 9 to 5. it’s about doing what your passion is over the security of just having a job. That could be anything.
Im gonna have me some fun im gonna have me some fun
Holly shit vlad, killin the game dog. Good job.
Luke cage was a good show. The characters were more engaging and that's even with bad writing on the last few episodes.
I always watch black lightning, its my favorite show.
People like Vlad always tryna explain they struggle story but leave out the main part of the story , like the fact that he was already in the door and made mixtapes with green lantern which means he already knew famous people to start interviewing lol
I didn't hear his story, but truth be told, you don't have to tell a struggle story in order to convince others that you struggled. As a struggle isn't entertaining or something to gloat about and share in order to appear humble.
pahz place He literally told his “struggle story” and nobody asked him too Celebs do this all the time to try and appear more humble so wtf r u talking about ?
Do you think that I live in some cloud that makes me unaware of what celebrities do?!? Matter fact, I could care less or give a rats ass about who does what in order to seduce/control another's/ mind. But in regards to what I've said here, that went straight over your head. Instead of worrying about what strangers that could give a rats ass about you do to appear like ??!?!??!? Try developing your understanding.........as knowing what someone else is up to in order to advance their life isn't where it's at. As what is that doing for your life. This is the type of shit that females that are bored with life and do not know themselves do.
@@pahzplace7853 So you're a female who's bored with life and doesn't know herself?
Here's one of the most impactful actors when the camera stop rolling. 😐
LIVE YOUR DREAMS! ITS WORTH IT. EVEN IF YOU NEVER MAKE ALOT OF MONEY.
I actually quite my stable job at the Post office in Springfield, Ma, Drove to Tampa, Florida to be a freelancer and persue my dreams of being a rapper :)
I overlooked these interviews and glad I started watching. This man has really lived and has done so much. He has experienced so much and this is so true. We all settle instead of trying. I hate my corporate America job, but it pays the bills.
Just got Something HAND 🤚 SIGNED✍️ from this Guy SAYING: GOD IS WITH YOU❤😊😇
Best line in menace 2 society . "YOU KNOW YOU DONE FUCKED UP RIGHT?" 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is why I started my own company! I'd rather fail now and be satisfied that I gave it a shot and took a leap of faith and believed in myself versus watching my life pass me by (when it's too late) and regretting not taking more risks and instead of playing it safe. Dreams do come true, I am living my dream and we can help you live yours too: www.a16studios.com/
This is for everyone who wants to be there own business boss .
His college degrees meant little, his attitude was everything.
Damn vlad, I love your content videos!!!! One day we will meet 🙏🏾♥️
Passion without a plan is called frustration 🔥🔥🔥
TALKING ABOUT THE FUTURE......THAT'S WHATS UP!!
I’m on the fence with this. In life, what may make you happy may not be enough it to to pay the bills or feed your kids. Life is full of choices.
Bendiciones guys keep throwing love into this wicked world
Now you see something...
Now you see now...
This man is full of wisdom. I love listening to him.
" I'm gonna have me some fun I'm gonna have me some fun " The hardest lines ever !!! Peace to the predator . Bill Duke's aka Mack ...
the moon conversation was better.
This is probably Vlads best interview so far. Vlad has come a long way.
My dream was to work with kids. So I took a job at the school district as a custodian and I'm more famous than the teachers. Success is good
Shout out to Bill Duke and Vlad for the inspiration.
Vlad gone eventually have to start paying people for these interviews.... watch.....
Oh, this was cool.I like this guy. Good interview.
What a gracious and kind man Bill is. Great interview...but you missed an important question. What was Bill's reaction to the death Stanley Tookie Williams??? Would have liked to hear his thoughts on that...
I’m not gonna lie, to be able to interview bill duke and get to be able to work with him out of it...that’s mad dope tho
This is such a great message coming from a great messenger! God Bless him and I'm definitely taking notes
Interview Mr.380 from Houston
Great interview...much love and respect for the legendary Bill Duke.
Bill duke one of my fav interviews youve done
Love him playing in predator 👌🏼
💯 nice interview can’t hate on this one real legend💪🏽✊🏽
Menace clip - instagram.com/p/BrSikVyHBtm/
This whole interview has been inspirational! thank you!
10:35, sometimes u gotta plug yourself into an opportunity
looks nice.....you see i got a jack in my hand.....and everybody is saying ....hit the road.....so no plugging for me....the only plan is a .....no plan.
This is one of the nicest interviews I've ever seen on this channel.
Bill Duke is a legend.
Keep Grinding Y’all! Keep Pushing! We Got This 💯💯💯
Vlad you interview a LEGEND BRO LEGEND congrat
from France GUYS
Bill thank you for all you did
Great interview! Love it.
Good interview, Mr.Duke is the Man.
What people like Vlad and all those RUclipsrs forget is that they're all dependent on RUclips, its rules and regulations. If YT decides to change their payout system, if YT tells you what words gets you demonetized, most of you'll comply. And if YT (or §13) decides to shut down once and for all one day, ya'll f***ed. So much for being established, being able to support your family, owning your content and "discovering yourself instead of waiting for Hollywood". Yeah, it's possible, but it all depends on a third party and rules you have no say in.
Bill Duke 👍🏾👍🏾
Palmerstown USA......if you remember that, then your old like me.
Stability and Contenment is True happiness.
Vlad listening to you at minute 8’32” I think you should have a virtual interview with prince. Because I remember how people used to call him crazy and has been when he painted his face with slave and said he was getting more money selling 2 millions album than 10 millions
The state over the individual is the human norm. The natural way of things Bill. We care about our society and not the individuals interest. This is why folks cry over injustice because these groups favor the few over the many. Happiness is an illusion. Stability is the real matter of life.
This is wisdom, to know that money will not buy you happiness. We’ve all heard it but how many people actually believe it and live it? The reality is God left a hole in each of us, a God shaped hole, that can only be filled by Him. The beginning of wisdom is to know that what you need is God
That’s true lots of people who grow up think they should be realistic and just pick a 9-5
Vlad lowkey be interviewing his self nowadays “53 million people viewed my channel” haha
I love bill duke!
Great interview but “you know you done fucked up right?” #MenaceIISociety
Dealing with this now, stepping out on faith at 40 to pursue something other than sitting at a desk full time, not fulfilled. I’ve wasted enough time.
Most of us don’t have “Dreams”…having a little more than enough is Enough. Each generation tries to make it more than what it is.
#Classic
Where tamela jones interview
I have uncle's who worked 30 years , and still going , I can tell they don't love what they do !
Vlad, ALWAYS takes time in the interview to brag!
One of the best videos on the channel but suddenly has a less views than videos on snitching of 69. People...
Vlad got financed by that Rick Ross lawsuit. Dude ain't slick lollll
You're welcome Vlad for the 53 million views
Mandy was good. I really enjoyed it.
Bill Duke is a humble & brilliant man, with massive wisdom!
Wowww they cancelled Luke Cage? smdh
