  • Episode 64 Alex Boyé "King of New York"
    Apr 21 2026

    When we tell the youth “Church History,” they yawn. We don’t have a history problem, we have a storytelling problem. But what if it sounded like their playlist? The KING of NEW YORK is not a lesson. It's a cinematic uprising. A hip-hop musical oratorio about Joseph Smith - and his explosive 1844 run for President of the United States, where he proposed a six-year plan to abolish slavery. Historians called it political suicide. He never made it to the ballot; becoming the first U.S. presidential candidate to be assassinated. Orchestra. Hip-hop. Theater. Film. Faith and American history told through a lens this generation will actually press play on. This is bigger than a show. It's a cultural moment. Live premieres. Faith-based streaming. Scholastic & Educational screenings. National & Global dialogue. We are building a small circle of Kingdom-minded sponsors to bring this to the big screen at scale. If you feel called to help build something history will remember.
