Rhyheim

 



Rhyheim Shabazz has apparently managed to achieve what no male porn performer (gay or straight) has achieved until now: one million followers on Twitter. By now you know that many things nowadays are measured by how many people 'follow' you on social media. You may also suspect that Rhyheim success has not come easily. I don't have to write here about the racism that Black and POC suffer in the gay porn world. All you have to look is at any of the porn you watch to notice a marked lack of melanin in most of it.

Rhyheim's success has come slowly but surely. Apparently, most of the content he films is from his ONLYFANS. He has sidestepped the bane of horrible production values by hiring a small production company to film and edit his videos and has made his mantra to hire the most incredibly diverse cast of porn actors to be in his videos, whether they are going to be invited to share his very abundant talent or share the screen with other porn performers.

For what I could read in the corners of the internet, Rhyheim has a more diverse cast of actors in his productions than any big name studio. People who work with him go on to be regulars in many big name studios, probably due to the exposure in his website. Even though Shabazz has worked with big studios (TimTales, CockyBoys, RawFuck, etc), most of the work he's done in 2020 and 2021 has been in his own website. Getting one million followers is testament to his savvy approach to business: including performers who are racially diverse and creating scenes that feel 'real' enough without being filmed Gonzo style and probably providing appropriate remuneration and billing to the performers who take part in his productions. And apparently, that is good for business. Big studios should take note, as well as other gay porn performers.

Add to that the fact that Mr. Shabazz is attractive (being muscular, over six feet tall and in his thirties certainly helps) and that he can fuck like it's nobody's business and you have a very good starting point. We should also take into account the fact that the men in his videos are also very attractive and that they all seem to be thoroughly enjoying themselves and Mr. Shabazz and you have a great formula for porn. Who knew it was that easy?

I am sure that there's more than one person in the business who is not happy with him or that he's got detractors (who doesn't have them, especially in porn?) but what is undeniable is that he's managed to do something that no other gay porn performer (not even the gay-for-pay) has achieved: one million followers in social media. If only a fraction of those are paying for his OnlyFans, Mr. Shabazz is probably laughing all the way to the bank.

Good for him.

XOXO

    1. Yes, he is.
      And I think he's worked hard for the success. Porn is not what you'd call a long-term career. And I'll have to check if he's in Rentboy. Do you mind if I check to see he comes in a piece?

  2. That's the most laughable thing about porn, isn't it? The lack of "realism." If he's managed that, then he's done really well. I know most viewers of porn are only after the boners and cum shots but, given the option, I think most people would prefer situations be a bit more realistic. And the acting to be more natural. As you say, they appear as though they're actually enjoying what they're doing. XOXO

    1. Well, porn is a fantasy that does not want to be found out.
      And I think he's managed to make amateur porn feel almost real, which is a feat in itself. I find his scenes to be pretty much what sex feels like. Not everybody has the stamina or the bodies they have, but you get my drift.

      He's in the right profession. Those are some impressive assets.

  4. Not really impressed by #'s of followers since many follow just be trendy. You know the phrase, "you should follow him, everybody else does."

    1. Funny thing is, it totally counts.
      It's like music nowadays. Who would have thought that streams would count to get a Platinum certification?

  5. Wow. I would follow him anywhere. And he's welcome to choke me or make me choke on it anyway he wants. He so fine. Thanks for this, Sixpence. You are a man of refined tastes!

    2. Oh, he IS fine.
      And my taste is all over the place, but I know what I like when I see it.

  6. I have never heard of him, but can get behind the Only Fans. Since coming out, it make studio porn look so boring. I don't think I personally have seen a studio porn in two years now. I will have to see if he has an Instagram, I don't do Twitter. I usually like thin small guys, but how can a guy pass up that dick?

    1. He has not been working with many studios, but he has a big following online (his Insta is in one of the links I posted, I think). I usually don't watch studio porn, either.
      And that's a DICK.

      XOXO
