World... meet Gumbo Media.

A lot of ya’ll might be wondering what’s up with this “G.”

The short story is, we’re changing.

In the past 1.5 years, we’ve gone from:

1 dream to 4 businesses and 10+ programs.

2 co-founders to a dozen core leaders and over 40 active creative contributors.

And it feels like we’re just now getting started.

But as we grow, we transform.

ROYAL served us well. We love the community built around it, and we cherish all it embodied.

But we serve the people. We are the people. And we felt our name moving forward needed to better reflect that.

And so, we present to you… Gumbo Media.

Gumbo curates content and experiences that expand the narrative of Black life.

Same goals, refined vision. Same content, more grit. Same heart, more soul.

Gumbo is communal, diverse, crafted with care, full of flavor, and shares the same Black roots as the community we serve.

Much more to come, but for now, say wassup to Gumbo!

Launching officially 09.06.2018.
