Evening with R.L. Byrd - Discussing Black Coffee

April 06, 2015

“Black Coffee” explores love relationships from the male point of view while bringing to light the most pressing social issues faced by black males in today’s America

There are ALWAYS two sides to every story. In R.L. Byrd's debut novel, Looking for Sweet Love, the Love Forum Divas told their side. Now it's the Brothers' turn in Black Coffee. 

The Love Forum is back and the relationship dilemmas continue within the infamous Dallas, Texas, urban radio station, K103.5. DK "Love" Niles, the popular Disc Jockey from the DK and Melissa Morning Show, takes over the reins of hosting the new Love Forum called The Brothers Speak, and man, are the Brothas talking. DK, in his pursuit to finding good love himself, discusses relationships from a black man's point of view and enlist the help of the husbands, boyfriends and lovers of the Love Forum Divas.

Known as the Brotherhood:  DK, Quentin, Miguel, Michael, Donnell, Pastor Levine, Dr. Houston and Brass aim to set the record straight and talk about dating black women, marriage, infidelity, personal struggles, what distinguishes a throw-back from a keeper, and answers the question the radio listeners really want to know: What really went down in their relationships?

If you thought the Love Forum Divas were dealing with issues, you may be surprised at what the brothers have to say about their relationship woes compounded by the social injustices they face in their day-to-day lives. In the end—when all is said and done—one Diva will be asking, "Am I drinking the right cup of Black Coffee?"
