THE FUNKFACE LEGACY is an Afro-Theological cinematic universe blending science fiction, psychological horror, mystery, history, spiritual thrillers, and poetry.
Built around themes of faith, judgment, Black history, hidden truth, trauma, technology, redemption, and moral consequence, the FUNKFACE LEGACY challenges audiences to question what they believe, what they know, and where they stand.
The universe consists of interconnected stories including COINED, 92%, 1921 -(Producer Laurie Ashbourne), Janus: Cemetery Gates, COINED II, and 100%. Each film stands on its own while contributing to a larger vision where the past speaks through the present, God and evil collide, hidden truths emerge, and every character carries the weight of choice, pain, survival, and consequence.
Every FUNKFACE LEGACY film makes a point.
COINED questions whether mankind can create perfection without becoming corrupted by sin.
92% confronts history, loyalty, Black women’s power, and the hidden truth behind the 8%.
1921 reminds audiences that Black Wall Street was not just destroyed—it still speaks.
Janus: Cemetery Gates forces audiences to confront judgment, guilt, choice, and the weight every soul must carry.
100% explores legacy, purpose, healing, and the strength passed from one generation of women to the next.
COINED II asks what happens when artificial perfection is invaded by human hatred.
The FUNKFACE LEGACY carries the moral force of Rod Serling, the suspense of Alfred Hitchcock, the spiritual imagination of Octavia E. Butler, the psychological questions of Philip K. Dick, Toni Morrison's - ancestral wounds, ghosts, memory, survival, and the uncompromising truth-telling of James Baldwin.
Its storytelling is brutal, spiritual, poetic, political, mysterious, and cinematic, built around a single challenge that echoes throughout the universe:
“You make the call.”
The FUNKFACE LEGACY is more than a collection of films. It is an experience filled with hidden messages, spiritual symbolism, historical memory, QR revelations, audience participation, and unforgettable characters who continue to challenge viewers long after the screen goes dark.
These are not just films.
They are statements.
They are conversations.
They are experiences.
They are the FUNKFACE LEGACY.
So here we stand.
This version reads like a studio manifesto, which is usually stronger for a homepage than a creator biography.
Funkface is a writer, creator, musician, and visionary storyteller whose work blends spirituality, history, mystery, poetry, science fiction, psychological horror, and social commentary into bold cinematic experiences.
Before entering film, Funkface built a career in music as the creator of da Funk of Brotha’Hood. He later became a solo artist signed by Gaff Music and sponsored by Burns Guitar. Throughout his musical journey, he shared stages with artists including Fishbone, Sublime, Long Beach Dub All Stars, Lil’ Kim, Average White Band, Biggie Smalls, Scarface, Ice-T, Junior M.A.F.I.A., Luke Skywalker, 2 Live Crew, and many others. He also worked alongside producer Kip Collin, Laurie Ashbourne, and the late Neal Lemlien.
After years of performing, writing, and creating through music, Funkface expanded his storytelling into film, bringing with him a unique voice shaped by rhythm, philosophy, spirituality, and life experience.
As the creator of the FUNKFACE LEGACY, Funkface develops stories that challenge audiences to think beyond the obvious. His work explores faith and doubt, good and evil, judgment and redemption, history and identity, technology and humanity. Rather than providing simple answers, his stories invite viewers to wrestle with difficult questions and reach their own conclusions.
Whether through music, film, hidden messages, spiritual symbolism, historical memory, or audience participation, Funkface continues to build experiences designed to spark thought, emotion, and discussion.
At the center of his work is a simple challenge:
“You make the call.”
So here we stand.
92% was written and created by Funkface, a Strong Black Brother who believes deeply in the power, resilience, and legacy of Black women.
As a writer, Funkface can create characters. He can tell stories. He can research history. But as Funkface says:
"I want to hear it from the mouths of my Beautiful Black Gods."
There is one thing no man, no human being, no race, and no nationality can do: fully carry the weight of a Black woman’s journey. No one can truly know the victories she has earned, the burdens she has carried, the sacrifices she has made, the faith she has leaned on, or the wisdom passed down through generations of mothers, daughters, grandmothers, sisters, and ancestors.
As Funkface says:
"As a writer, I can imagine. I can listen. I can learn. I can honor. But I cannot place my pen exactly where a Black woman's footsteps have traveled. That journey belongs to her alone."
That is why Toshia founded the 92% Legacy Roundtable — to listen, to learn, and to ensure that the voices, experiences, and truths of Black women help strengthen the story of 92%.
Funkface says:
"I am asking for one thing: your valuable time, your stories, your strength, your wisdom, your faith, your perseverance, and your truth."
This is not about Black women finger-pointing. This is about Black women standing in the world with pride, success, and legacy — saying everything without having to say one word.
The Roundtable does not exist to give permission to tell the story. It exists to strengthen it — to help us listen, learn, and ensure that the women who inspire these characters have a voice in shaping them from pencil to paper, from production to the big screen.
We want to introduce you to the characters in the film. Who do you relate to? Does this character remind you of your momma? Does she act like Grandmaw? Does she laugh like your aunt? Is he bossy like your uncle? Do you see someone you love, someone you lost, or even a piece of yourself?
Funkface says:
"Help me mold these characters I have created in my mind, so I can place them truthfully on the big screen."
While one writer may create the story, the truth within that story is often found in the experiences of those who have lived it.
The goal of 92% is not to speak for Black women. The goal is to listen closely enough that their strength, wisdom, faith, perseverance, and legacy are reflected honestly on screen.
And that can only happen when real women become part of this journey.

Have you questioned your marriage or relationship because of it? Have you felt that women’s rights were being taken, controlled, or decided by others? Have you looked back and realized that Black women were warning the world, but too many people did not listen?
The 92% Legacy Roundtable invites women of all races to share what is on their minds. This is a space to speak honestly, listen deeply, and stand together in truth, strength, and legacy.
We are now accepting email submissions from women interested in holding a chair at the 92% Legacy Roundtable or just wanna get things off your shoulders.
Please introduce yourself, share why you would like to join, and explain how your voice, experiences, wisdom, or perspective can help strengthen the story 92% is being created to bring to the big screen.
