“Black-ish” Creator Kenya Barris On More Spin Offs: “We’re Brewing It”
Kenya Barris has been killing the game. In 2014, the talented director, writer, and actor created Black-ish, to critical acclaim. The series, starring Anthony Anderson, Tracee Ellis Ross, and Yara Shahidi was a hit. He has since created the Grown-ish and Mixed-ish spinoffs. The franchise looks like it will keep growing with Barris at the helm. He sat down with Deadline to discuss another “ish” spinoff and his new Netflix deal.
“We’re brewing it, yeah. It’s something I’m really super excited about,” answer Barris when questioned about another “ish” show. “Yeah, we’re brewing it, and hopefully it gets done, and adds to that world in a really special way.” Barris also believes that his deal with Netflix, where his show #blackAF is streaming, will not get in the way of his expanding “ish” universe. “Not if I stay, contractually if I stay within that world,” Barris explained, stating that as long as he keeps the “ish” universe contained to ABC he should be good. “No. It’s actually sometimes a little bit nicer to go and do network television because it’s a little bit freeing in a different kind of way because you get to tell different kinds of stories.” Do you want to see another “ish” show?

Yin Lin’s Resounding Keys to Success”

Nestled amidst the electric heartbeat of Shanghai, Yin Lin’s tryst with the ivory keys of a piano commenced when she was a mere toddler of three. Born and nurtured in the rich cultural milieu of this dynamic city, she embraced her passion with open arms, setting the stage for a musical journey that many can only dream of.
By the age of 15, she had already graced the prestigious corridors of Shanghai Normal University School of Music. Under the nurturing wings of renowned figures like Shuxing Zheng, Lan’er Hu, and Zhebang Xie, Yin Lin didn’t just evolve; she soared, etching her name into the annals of music history. Her prodigious talents didn’t go unnoticed; she clinched distinguished honors such as the Pearl River Piano Cup National Pentathlon Competition and the much-coveted MAP-IMC award in 2021.
Yin’s thirst for knowledge was insatiable. Adding more feathers to her cap, she pursued multiple degrees, with her academic journey reaching an apex when she secured the Artist Certificate from Azusa Pacific University School of Music. As we speak, a scholarship awaits her at La Sierra University, all under the esteemed Dr. Elvin Rodriguez’s tutelage. And come this fall, another chapter awaits as she embarks on a DMA degree program at the renowned University of Southern Mississippi.
The timeline between 1999 and 2022 isn’t just years on a calendar for Yin; it’s a collage of her multifaceted engagements. Be it mesmerizing audiences with soulful solo recitals or rubbing shoulders in masterclasses with industry giants such as Dr. Allan Smith and the Grammy Award-winning Opera Singer, Victoria Livengood, Yin has done it all. A shining feather in her cap was her collaboration with the celebrated cellist, Yi-Bin Chu, in 2022.
Beyond performing, Yin Lin has left indelible marks in administrative roles, helming positions as the Artistic Director at the MARKER AND PIONEER International Culture Exchange Center. She also showcased her versatile talents as a piano accompanist and a music worship leader at revered institutions like Claremont Chorale INC and the Mountain View Mennonite Church.
Yin Lin’s musical odyssey, spanning from institutions like the Shanghai YAMAHA Music School to the Los Angeles Chinese Musicians Ensemble Chorus, echoes her relentless passion and dedication. Her story isn’t just about mastering the keys of a piano but resonates with a deep love for the symphony of life.
