Jeff Clanagan, CEO and President of CodeBlack Entertainment discussed with ReelUrbanNews.com via an exclusive interview the business of comedy and the role his company plays in the multi-million dollar a year industry. “CodeBlack Entertainment has been around for five years and we’re basically the only African American distribution company in existence. We specialize in film production and distribution. Our focus has been on home entertainment, DVD and television, internet and new media.”
Jeff and CodeBlack Entertainment are responsible for creating the Shaquille O’Neal All Star Comedy Jam which takes place the same weekend the NBA host All Star Weekend. “We created an event that weekend that traditionally didn’t exist during the All Star break. I can’t think of any other athlete or celebrity to host than Shaq. Shaq was the right person for the brand.”
