Porn Pimp or Porn Pushover? (And Other Weekend Ramblings)

Posted by Michael on June 14th, 2008

I’m learning the hard way that this is a business of highs and lows, ups and downs, and nothing can ever be taken for granted. ESPECIALLY when I’m working with young guys whose moods and ambitions and life circumstances change from day to day. It’s a tough balancing act for a guy as sentimental and emotional as I tend to be.

On the one hand, I don’t want to turn into some sleazy porn-producer stereotype who treats his models like disposable pieces of meat. The kind of guy who’s totally emotionless when things turn sour with a particular model….because he thinks that one cute black boy’s just as good as the next, and there are a dozen new faces to replace any one guy, right?

At the same time, I feel like I’m WAY too emotionally invested in my models right now, to the point that it’s potentially bad for business and most definitely bad for my mental health. I really need to figure out how to strike a balance between the cold-hearted Porn Pimp and the overly-sensitive guy who gets too attached to his models.

Thank goodness Dragon hasn’t let me down yet! He still calls me about once a week to ask about my latest video-shoots and hear what people have been saying on the blog lately. He was ECSTATIC when I told him that The Schoolboy and the Thug was the #1 movie on AMVC for a second month in a row!

Speaking of Dragon….

Last night I went out to dinner with one of my closest friends. She’s a black lesbian who is very open-minded about sex, and the first friend that I told about my secret “hobby.” She’s been incredibly supportive from the time I first told her (“How could I NOT support you when you’re making your dream come true???” she explained). Whenever we hang out, she asks how the business is going, what videos I’m working on, etc., and it’s always nice to be able to talk about things with a close friend in person, as opposed to posting things on the blog, or talking with my models, or corresponding with cyber-friends through email.

Anyway, after dinner last night she came back to my place and asked me to show her one of my videos. I was really reluctant and embarrassed at first, but eventually I decided “what the hell.” I’ve never really watched porn with my platonic friends before, let alone watched gay male porn with a LESBIAN when the porn in question was filmed by me! Needless to say, it was a pretty bizarre and comical experience.

I showed her The Schoolboy and the Thug, and she loved it! She was really amused by Shyne’s attitude throughout much of the scene, the way he’d switch from apparent indifference to arousal in a matter of seconds. She was also impressed with Dragon’s performance (“Damn, he’s really WORKIN’ it!” she exclaimed when Dragon was riding Shyne’s dick), and she told me to tell Dragon that he should take FULL credit for the video’s success! I’m sure Dragon will be THRILLED to hear that, since a definite rivalry has developed between he and Shyne since they filmed that first scene.

Tomorrow afternoon I have plans to meet with this cute, 19-year-old white boy that I’m hoping to feature in some interracial scenes if all goes well. I still plan on appearing in some of my interracial videos, but it’s always so stressful juggling sex AND filming at the same time, especially when trying to fuck the guys on camera. I’ve had a lot of difficulty getting the right angles and staying hard throughout numerous interruptions. But I don’t have the kind of budget that can afford to hire a videographer (plus, I’m a bit of a control-freak when it comes to the actual filming). So I’m hoping if things work out with this new kid, I can film some hot interracial FUCKING in the near future, without the limitations that come with tripod-style homemade porn. We’ll see how things go tomorrow….

I’m starving, and that left-over pizza in the fridge is sounding pretty damn good, so that’s enough rambling for now….

Two Rednecks and A Black Guy Are Together In A Room….

Posted by Michael on June 14th, 2008

….Sounds like the beginning of an offensive joke, I know, but hear me out….

Joe Schmoe is one of my favorite fellow producers over at AMVC.

A lot of guys assume that because I started a company called Black Boy Addictionz, that means I’m ONLY attracted to black males, but that’s not the case at all. In fact, I’ve always had a thing for cute young rednecks, country-boys and “trailer park” types like the guys in Joe Schmoe’s videos. It’s really not all that different from my attraction to “thugs”….sometimes crossing class lines can be just as exciting as breaking down racial divisions.

Joe’s videos also have this gritty amateur vibe that is unlike ANYTHING I’ve ever seen in amateur porn. I like to think that I do a pretty good job of conveying a sense of spontaneity and authenticity in my own videos, but I swear Joe takes the amateur genre to a level that makes other amateur videos like mine look like glamorous Hollywood productions! (That is a compliment to his videos, not an insult!).

Sure, my videos are homemade, but I still recruit my models, schedule video-shoots, and set up the kind of camera-shots that I think will look the hottest. In most of Joe’s videos, however, it really looks his guys just stopped by his house unannounced after a long day’s work at the factory, horny and drunk and ready to fuck around as a way to earn some extra cash and/or explore their repressed same-sex urges before heading home to their wives and girlfriends.

I’m also a big fan of Joe Schmoe because I consider him to be a kind of fellow “pioneer” in the genre he’s referred to in the past as “reverse interracial.” He isn’t scared to show black guys sucking and getting fucked by young redneck dick, or taking some country-boy cum on their faces. Even when the action is more “predictable interracial” than “reverse interracial”, the whole dynamic of the black-guy-with-redneck taboo brings a freshness and erotic intensity that I normally don’t find in gay interracial porn.

Now I normally wouldn’t post a recommendation for a film I haven’t seen yet, but Joe’s latest release looks so damn hot and I have a feeling that a lot of the blog readers who enjoy my interracial scenes might want to check it out.

It’s called Dirty Old Men Start Out As Dirty Young Men (gotta love the creativity of his titles!), and it just went on sale today. Here’s part of the official description and a couple screenshot previews:

An open-minded str8(?) skaterboy, a barely legal redneck teenboy, a black ex-con who craves white cock on the DL, all ”meat” up for some amateur southern style cock suckin, cig smokin’, jerkin and more at Joe’s Place. New comer Jay is a quiet, but eager as he takes his first steps to becoming a dirty young man. As usual, its as amateur as it gets…and then some. -Joe

Nimrod brought his 18 yr old skatebuddy Jay over to make a vid. They’ve never seen each others dicks before or messed around. Jay just turned 18 less than a month ago and says that he’s bi…you can tell he’s very curious. Black ex-con Dee LOVES young white cock. Even though he is engaged, he couldn’t resist the chance to get a hold of some teen redneck dick. He reminds me of Dave Chapelle.

The teens get a look of Dee’s monster cock and can’t resist tasting it for themselves. They each take turns sucking some black cock…and of course Dee almost sucks the nuts right off both them boys. Nimrod gives Dee a redneck facial, Dee nuts on the floor, and Jay strokes one out by himself after Nimrod and Dee finish.

Of course my ULTIMATE Joe Schmoe porn fantasy would be to see my favorite young “wannabe thug” J-Bone in the middle of an interracial threesome, but I guess Dee will have to do for now 😉 !

It’s rare that I buy porn on DVD any more, but I just ordered a copy so I won’t have to wait a month or more before it shows up online.

You can also check out most of Joe’s other flicks right here in my Online Theater.

Mama Said There’d Be Days Like This (Well, Not EXACTLY!)

Posted by Michael on June 6th, 2008

I always roll my eyes in disgust when I hear celebrities on TV complaining about the paparazzi, or their exhausting schedules as they shoot scenes for the next Hollywood blockbuster. They must be so miserable, I think sarcastically, going home to their multi-million-dollar mansions and servants and private yachts.

So I always feel a little guilty when I find myself complaining about my “job” as an amateur porn producer 😉 . I have to remind myself that I’m actually living out my life-long fantasy. I’m lucky enough to have hot young black boys coming over to my apartment on a regular basis, stripping naked and then fucking each other just a few feet away from me. It’s the same voyeuristic thrill of watching porn, only infinitely hotter because I’m able to feel the heat of their bodies, and enjoy the smell of their dicks and balls and asses and sweat. When I’m REALLY lucky, I even get to enjoy their beautiful young bodies myself. I’m actually LIVING the fantasy of thousands of gay men, and I never want to take that for granted.

Still, there are days like yesterday when I’m reminded that producing amateur porn isn’t all fun and games. I spent most of yesterday doing the two things I enjoy LEAST about this business:

The first involves anything related to website programming and other technical issues. I’m pretty confident when it comes to the relatively simple stuff like emailing, blogging, video editing, posting images and video clips, etc. But I’m embarrassingly clueless when it comes to more technical things like designing a website. Simple tasks that would probably take the average computer-savvy 13-year-old about ten minutes to complete end up taking me several excruciatingly stressful hours 😉 !

For example, I spent a huge portion of my day yesterday working on creating a warning page for my blog….designing the page, setting up a hosting service, switching my blog’s URL to a sub-domain, etc. If it weren’t for the help of Jason over at Spunkworthy Video, I’d probably STILL be stressing out about it. He talked me through it, and provided a lot of great tips and pointers in the process. Plus, it was fun talking to another AMVC producer on the phone for the first time, swapping stories and gossip and advice about the business. Even though a few of my close friends know about my porn business, I still don’t have anyone other than my models with whom I feel comfortable talking so candidly about things.

I had to juggle the stress of creating the warning page with my second-least favorite part of my job: planning and scheduling video-shoots! I spent a ridiculous amount of time yesterday, calling and emailing potential models in an effort to find a hot partner for a second video-shoot with Eureka tomorrow afternoon.

First, there’s the challenge of pairing up guys who will be attracted to one another as well as sexually compatible. Especially when I get the feeling from talking to Eureka on the phone that he’s horny and eager to explore his “bisexual” side through porn (there’s a lot more to that story that I’ll be sure to share later).

Second, there’s the stress of actually trying to get in touch with potential models. Because my time and budget are limited, I can’t film as frequently as I’d like, which means that a lot of the guys who were open to working with me a couple months ago have since graduated college and moved away, or their phones have been disconnected, or they’re now in jail, or they’ve gotten cold feet, etc. The flaky, game-playing guys are the worst….the ones who send me emails saying how eager they are to work with me but then never take or return my calls, or stop calling me back as the time for a scheduled video-shoot grows near.

When I FINALLY get in touch with a guy, there’s still the whole nightmare of going back and forth with emails or phone-calls, trying to juggle the complicated schedules of unpredictable and often-times immature young guys. It’s now late Friday afternoon, and I STILL don’t have a partner for Eureka!

Well, at the end of a long day, I finally got my warning page to work, and I think it looks pretty damn good considering the fact that it’s my first web-page ever!

I apologize for the delay in blogging and releasing new videos caused by my out-of-town travels and development of the new blog, but now that I have the new blog up and running, I’m hoping to get back into a more consistent routine of recruiting, filming, editing, and blogging! Thanks for your patience!

Dragon Brings Over A Buddy

Posted by Michael on June 4th, 2008

[Update: You can now enjoy the full-length, uncensored version of this hot scene, along with ALL of my other movies, by joining BlackBoyAddictionz.com!]

Those of you who read my blog regularly know that Dragon moved out of state awhile back. It was a pleasant surprise, then, when I got a call from him last Sunday night, telling me he was back in town for a dentist’s appointment and that he was hoping he could do a scene for me. I knew he was wanting to make some extra spending money, but I also think he was just really, REALLY horny 😉 .

Because the whole thing was so last-minute (Dragon was heading home via Greyhound early Wednesday morning), I didn’t have any success putting a scene together, and I finally had to tell an obviously disappointed Dragon that we’d just have to wait and make something happen next time he was back in town.

But Dragon refused to give up. He proceeded to go through his cell and call a bunch of friends, ex-boyfriends, etc., trying to persuade them to give the whole amateur porn thing a try. Even then it didn’t seem like he was going to have any luck. He finally called me late Monday night, however, and told me he’d talked a friend of his into doing a scene with him.

I’ll be honest, I was pretty skeptical of the idea. I usually like to see photos of a guy and put him through a kind of “orientation” process before filming him….explaining the kinds of videos I make, talking about what he’s comfortable or not comfortable doing in a scene, etc., etc. But Dragon was setting me up on the porn producer equivalent of a “blind date,” asking me to gamble that I’d share his physical attraction to this guy I’d never seen or heard of before. Dragon sounded so eager and hopeful, however, that I just didn’t have the heart to say “no,” so we went ahead and made plans for a video-shoot the next morning.

To make a long story short, Dragon now teases me that I should NEVER doubt him again 😉 !

I breathed a huge sigh of relief when the two boys showed up yesterday morning, and it turned out that Dragon’s friend was a VERY attractive young man with a great personality, gorgeous body, and a natural confidence and talent in front of the camera.

He wants to be known as “Eureka”….an odd choice for a porn name, I thought, but I usually try to let the guys I work with create their own names without any input or interference from me.

Eureka is a masculine bisexual “top” who just turned 19 and hopes to join the Air Force in the near future. Dragon described him to me on the phone as a mix of “preppy” and “street,” and I’d say that’s pretty accurate. He’s also an athlete….he played football and ran track in high school….and he’s got a nice muscular young body, a bit more “beefy” than most of my models, and five or six tattoos (always a turn-on for me).

He was a little shy at first, but in a cute, sexy way that really turned me on. He said he hadn’t really thought about doing porn before Dragon approached him with the idea, but that he figured he should give it a try at least once so he could say he’d done it.

The scene we filmed yesterday is hands-down the most mutual and SENSUAL action scene I’ve filmed so far.

As a lot of you already know, I’m really turned on by themes of reluctance, inexperience, persuasion, etc. in porn….straight boys being bribed into gay sex, masculine guys taking dildos for the first time, strangers hooking up and fucking just minutes after meeting for the first time, “tops” agreeing to get fucked for the right price, etc., etc.

The scene with Dragon and Eureka was very much the OPPOSITE of those themes, but still turned out to be unbelievably hot to watch! The two boys have been close friends for a couple years. They’ve messed around with each other a few times, but never dated or anything like that. They are basically “friends with benefits” who agreed to let me film them having some horny fun together. They had a special, intense chemistry together that was obvious from the start….there were even a few times that I had to tell them to keep their hands off each other until the camera was ready to start filming!

In other words, it’s a far cry from Corrupting Cortez, LOL! Say what you will about my films, you can’t accuse me of a lack of variety!

As an exclusive holiday-weekend treat for my blog readers, here are some hot-off-the-press screenshots from the first part of yesterday morning’s video-shoot with Dragon and Eureka.

Enjoy!

Yes, I nearly dropped my camera when Dragon first pulled down Eureka’s underwear! I defy anyone to check out the photo below and tell me that isn’t one DAMN beautiful dick!

What Customers Are Saying About My Videos….

Posted by Michael on June 4th, 2008

Here’s what customers are saying about my videos:

Every Straight Thug Has A Price

Some of your other bloggers have described perfectly [Jay’s] uniqueness on the “Every Thug…” video: his sense of humor, his facial expressions, his on-camera personna. It would be a great loss if he did not perform again and we see him ‘moving up the ladder’. In his latest video, his reluctance (genuine) seemed tempered with curiosity and a desire-to-please, elements universally recognizable, natural and appealing…. You’ve talked about your approach to filming by revealing and exploring your models’ personalities. Some guys don’t have much to give, but Jay has a whole story, only beginning to unfold, and you’ve captured it beautifully. But the story is only half-told. Don’t give up!!

You are truly the master in getting these young sexy thugs to submit to you and i know that turns you on. I have an suggestion on this why not have it where you take off their clothes slowly and piece by piece that would be breath taking. I cannot say anything else now too wait for the rest i am out of words literally and that is not easy for me.

You have the only videos I watch on pay per view. What was that guy Jay like? he looked like his black ass tasted and smelled good?

Breakin’ In A Young Thug

Shyne is a real sexy dude. I am really feelin his swagger. He got sexy eyes and i love his hair and his voice.

Your video has arrived….it’s a hot flick….gave me a woodie and that doesn’t happen much anymore without some serious meds.

The Shyne DVD FINALLY came today and all I can say is WOW….make that a DOUBLE WOW!! ….The way Shyne kept bobbing his head, whlle he was giving you head was amazing!! And of course the money shot (trust me I came WAY before that) was a jem all in itself.

my heart was beating fast….I almost couldnt breathe literally….He has got to be one of the hottest lil thugs I have ever seen.Would be nice to see another older white man get a feel and taste of this one please.

now you know you were wrong to cum on his face like that

i really like your work and truefully kinda jealous that u have such hot guys in your vids and r willing 2 do anything u ask (so hot).

I love your videos I love doing it with black guys and since moving to atlanta have had the opportunity to get with some hot ones. Keep up the great work love when you work on their asses that is so hot!!

I must tell you that I really enjoy your videos. They are so real and everything happens so natural. Do you have any more you can post on here and Shyne, he is going to be a hell of a porn star and as long as you keep [making videos] i will support you.

I LOVED THAT VIDEO!!!!!! DAMN AND HIS HAIR IS A FUCKING TURN ON WITH THOSE JUICY LIPS. HUMMMMMM MMMM MMM MMM M

The Schoolboy and the Thug

It’s essentially just a story you’re telling, albeit about sex between two young men. The video just needs to allow us to see what’s happening in an interesting and visually hot way. You did that. I think amateur allows for a lot more leeway. We aren’t expecting it to be polished. We don’t even want that. We like the awkwardness of two strangers, guys we might hope to see on the street one day, carrying on for the camera. It will probably be interesting to see how, if at all, they behave differently in future videos as they get more comfortable with one another.

dragon and shyne had me blowing my load all over the place….I think shyne is a really down dude….He really seemed to know what he was doing. I definitely want to see more of him.

Yes sir!!! The Schoolboy/Thug video is the best to date!! Like I said before give me an amateur vid over that Hollywood crap anytime!! Could you at least let Dragon in the door LOL!! And Dragon was right, Shyne was nervous at first, but having your dick sucked usually calms the nerves!!

I think your most recent models are very beautiful. I’m not into the thug types. I’m more of the preppy, ordinary boy looks. The “Schoolboy” is kinda more my type.

Man I just love the [work] you’ve done. I don’t know where you find these guys but they are beautiful and the whole presentation is so sexy. I watch and watch. Keep up the great work. I’d love to see more. Clearly, I too am a blackboyaddict.

I want to say THANK YOU to my customers, fans, and blog readers for all of your encouragement and support! Feedback, suggestions, and/or fan mail for the models is ALWAYS welcome at BlackBoyAddictionz@gmail.com!

I reply personally to every email I get, which is something I’m pretty sure you won’t get with most of the big professional studios! And I know Dragon and Shyne try to reply to their fan mail as well!

Overexposed Models & “Head Only” Videos

Posted by Michael on June 4th, 2008

Thanks for sharing your feedback and questions! I decided to turn my responses to some of the feedback on previous threads into a new post.

“Anonymous Me” wrote:

The only thing that concerns me just a little is that you referred to many future repeat appearances by Shyne and a couple of the other guys featured in your present videos. Basically, that’s why I stopped purchasing or renting any Sneek Peek videos after awhile–because how many times can you see Vinnie service Enrique, Buzz, Franco, and the other three or four dudes before it becomes boring? Vinnie REALLY needs to expand his talent base in order to get me interested again. I own many of his earlier videos (literally hundreds of dollars worth), but now when I see the names and faces of the same old talent on the boxes I don’t even rent them to scan because I know it’s just going to be more of what I’ve already seen. If he’d added more variety to his talent base (especially different body types and ages) he would have continued to make a lot of money off my purchases. As it is now, I haven’t spent a dime on his newest vids in a couple of years. That said, I hope you’ll continue to find new and intriguing talent for your straight thug explorations, because let’s face it–nothing does away with sexual tension and exhilaration like too much familiarity and repetition.

I know what you mean about Vinnie’s videos getting a little bit too predictable and unimaginative. I honestly didn’t even think he was filming new content any more. It seems like all of his videos for the past year or two have been recycled “Best Of” content, or “new” stuff that is really just more of the same, taken from old but previously unreleased footage.

In any case, I think this is a trap that a lot of porn producers fall into. Now that I’m doing this myself, it’s easy to see why this is so common. There’s a lot of stress and risk involved in meeting and working with a new model for the first time. And there’s something sort of “safe” about working with guys you feel comfortable with and can trust to give you your money’s worth.

But I’ve been a porn CONSUMER a hell of a lot longer than I’ve been a porn producer, and I agree that erotic suspense, sexual tension, new faces, fresh bodies, etc., are some of the things that make porn so appealing. I can think of many porn stars whose physical attractiveness and sex appeal for me have sadly been spoiled by overexposure, and I certainly don’t want to make the same mistake with my videos!

But at the same time, I’ve tried to film and edit my videos in a way that lets viewers get to know the models in a way they just can’t with most fast-paced, tightly-edited productions from the professional studios. When a model is attractive and popular enough, I think it can be exciting to follow his adventures and maturation as an amateur porn star.

I think the key when using familiar models is to make an effort to put them in new and intriguing scenarios, or expand their sexual boundaries in creative and stimulating ways. That’s where I think Vinnie makes his mistake. For me, it’s less about him using the same guys and more about the fact that he follows virtually the same exact routine with those same guys every time!

So yeah, I’ve already filmed additional scenes with Shyne, and I plan on continuing to use him until he loses interest or gets stolen away by one of the bigger companies (which wouldn’t surprise me at all….he’s been VERY popular so far). But every time I film him, I hope to try something different. For example, we’ve seen him take dildos and we’ve seen him fuck Dragon, but I’d love to see HIM get fucked for a change, either by me and/or a super-hung black guy and/or a younger, cuter white boy.

So don’t worry….I will do my best to introduce new guys in my videos on a regular basis. And when I use guys you’ve already seen, I’ll try to space those scenes out, AND make the material as fresh and engaging as possible.

“OfficialG” wrote:

I like to see more oral scenes, Dragon knew what he was doing and no doubt Shyne enjoyed it. I think that Michael has strong dick game as well and that maybe you could focus on having a video dedicated to oral sex, no masterbation but get a top notch dick sucker who has skill to make a dick cum just with head alone. Besides, I think there is this stigma that some guys cannot cum with just head alone, and I like to meet that challange head on (no pun intended) I like to see even the most disciplined tops cum when they said they wouldn’t because the head was just too much. anyway it is just a suggestion and since it looks like you have more tops than bottoms it would take one attractive charming dick sucker to take on Shyne, Michael and any others thinking they “wont nutt from head.” As you said, Michael was already sexually attracted to men as was Dragon and I would presume those two solo videos not as profitable as Shyne cortez or JAy’s so do not discredit someone who is so enthusiastic and does not ask for much. anyways I want to see your idea on the head only videos maybe have three scenes maybe ten to 15 minutes long with a great cum shot?

I like the idea of making a “head only” video.

I know I’m probably in the minority here, but a lot of the time I get just as turned on watching guys giving/getting head in a porn video as I do when watching hardcore fucking. ESPECIALLY when the guy giving head looks straight or more like a masculine “top,” and/or when things get a little aggressive and intense.

I’m the same way in my own sex life. Sometimes fucking a hot wet mouth can feel just as good or even BETTER than fucking a nice tight ass! But like I said, I’m probably in the minority on that 😉 .

I’ll give the “head only” idea some more thought. For starters, I’ll need to find the right guy to do the dick-sucking.

Vinnie Russo’s Straight Boy Seductions

Posted by Michael on June 4th, 2008

If you’re familiar with the amateur porn of “Vinnie Russo” (Sneek Peek Productions and Dawghouse Video), it probably won’t come as a huge surprise that his videos have been a major influence on my own productions. I didn’t even realize the extent of that influence until going back and re-watching a few of his videos recently.

Vinnie’s videos are about as authentically amateur as “straight boy” porn can get. They are filmed in a regular apartment (sometimes you can even see Vinnie’s cat in the background), with just a basic camcorder and tripod. There’s no cameraman, no fancy lighting, and no flashy editing.

Vinnie is a stocky, well-hung, blue-collar-type Italian guy who invites young, masculine “thugs” and working-class guys (white, black, and Latino) into his home for “discreet” encounters.

The guys in his videos are allegedly straight, although I suspect that most of them are probably closer to what we’d call “bisexual” or “on the DL.” But unlike some of the porn producers that try to pass off queeny, lisping gay boys as STRAIGHT boys going “gay for pay,” Vinnie’s guys are undeniably masculine in a way that is still very much a turn-on. Many of them are in and out of jail, a lot of them are heavily tattooed, and most have wives or girlfriends.

One of the things I love most about Vinnie’s scenes is the way he leaves the camera running while the guys smoke and enjoy a couple beers before the action begins. We get to hear them talking about the “bitches” they fucked that week, or some fight they got into at the neighborhood bar, or what a relief it is to be out of prison after being locked up for three months.

What I love is just how unscripted and spontaneous the whole thing feels. We feel like we’re right there in Vinnie’s living room, like it’s us chatting with the hot straight studs rather than Vinnie. We start to get a sense of their personalities, which in my opinion makes the action that follows all the more arousing to watch.

Every video follows pretty much the same routine: The young straight stud lies back in a chair, or on a couch, or on a bed, sometimes with a cigarette in one hand and beer in the other, and with straight porn playing in the background, while Vinnie kneels between his legs and gives him a blowjob.

In some videos, Vinnie moves his mouth a little lower and licks the straight guy’s asshole. There are few things hotter, in my opinion, than watching a gay man tongue-worship a hot straight boy’s sweaty, usually-OFF-LIMITS asshole.

Japanese Straight Boys Submitting To Gay Sex Acts For Cash

Posted by Michael on June 4th, 2008

If I had to choose, I’d say that out of all the porn I’ve seen in my life (and that’s A LOT 😉 ), the BIGGEST influence on the videos I’ve made so far has been some of the gay porn produced in Japan.

I first discovered it a few years ago, and it’s left an indelible mark on my erotic imagination ever since. I’m not exaggerating when I say that it’s the most intensely arousing gay porn I’ve ever seen. And if the idea of straight boys having gay sex for money turns you on as much as it turns me on, I think you’ll agree!

Most “gay for pay” porn in the United States is ridiculously, insultingly fake at worst….and highly suspicious at best. What I love about Japanese porn, especially the stuff produced by the studios Japan Pictures and Field Express, is its AUTHENTICITY.

Every scene follows a simple but highly arousing routine: A toned, usually stunningly gorgeous athlete (we’re often shown scenes of him playing his sport beforehand, many times with an actual high school or college team) sits alone in a bedroom or living room somewhere. A man behind the camera talks to him in Japanese for a long time (making me wish to God I knew Japanese), and my sense is that they’re talking about the guy’s heterosexuality, his feelings about what he’s agreed to do for money, etc. Maybe I’m way off, but regardless, the lengthy interviews reveal the guy to be authentically masculine, down to earth, nervous, aloof, reluctant, etc.

The young athlete strips and starts jacking off. Eventually an older Japanese guy (usually in his 30’s and not bad-looking himself), who is oddly enough almost always wearing goggles, begins slowly massaging and fondling the young man’s naked body.

There is little doubt in my mind that for most of these guys it is their first time being touched by another man: The athlete is always visibly uncomfortable, and there’s something about the way he tightly shuts his eyes, or the way his body tenses up, that feels anything but faked.

The older guy then force-kisses him (again proving the boy’s straightness, as the younger guy usually clenches his lips shut in disgust at first, then eventually surrenders….very reluctantly….to the older man’s insistent tongue).

Controversial Porn: Part 2

Posted by Michael on June 4th, 2008

I see that my previous post provoked quite a few passionate and thoughtful reactions (as I suspected it might). I want to thank those of you who took the time to respond, and for keeping the conversation at an intelligent, thought-provoking but respectful level.

I don’t want to digress TOO much into a serious intellectual debate….this is still a PORN BLOG after all 😉 !

But I would like to elaborate on my previous post and try to explain in a little more depth who I am and why I’m making the types of videos that I am (something I will continue doing through this blog in the weeks and months to come). Some of this will echo what’s already been expressed by others.

Let me begin with the obvious: I LOVE BLACK GUYS 😉 !!!

Young, MASCULINE black guys in particular. I’ve been sexually attracted to black males for as long as I can remember.

Unlike a lot of white guys with similar attractions, I’m not a “size queen” with a fetish for “big black cocks.” My interest in interracial sex is not motivated by any sense of racial inferiority OR superiority.

I’m not seeking out the thrill of breaking a social taboo just for the sake of doing so.

It’s not even primarily an “opposites attract” kind of thing, an interest in something “exotic” or “different,” although I do enjoy the physical contrasts between black guys and white guys (hair texture, skin complexions, lips, asses, noses, etc.), and I don’t think there’s anything wrong with acknowledging or enjoying those differences in an erotic context.

I realize that nobody’s sexual desires can be attributed to ONE cause, but I do think the origin of my attraction is fairly simple and “innocent.” I grew up as one of the only white kids in predominantly black neighborhoods, so by the time I started to figure out at a pretty young age that I liked boys more than girls, most of those same-sex desires were directed at my black friends in school, church, and the neighborhood, sort of by default.

We can probably all agree that sexual desires formed in one’s childhood and adolescence are almost impossible to change later in life. It just makes sense that my original objects of lust (and in some cases, LOVE) continue to attract me well into adulthood.

As I started to explain in my previous post, I’ve also been obsessed with straight males for as long as I can remember, and a variety of related erotic themes including seduction/corruption, prostitution, economic coercion, resistance/reluctance, etc.

I’m also really turned on by themes of domination and submission. I’ve never gotten into the “S&M” or “leather” scenes. In fact, what I consider “domination” and “submission” is usually comically (some might say PATHETICALLY) tame in comparison. It’s basically just me being, for the most part, a “Top”….in terms of my sexual attractions and preferences, at least. (I like to joke that I was born with the desires of a “top” but the dick of a “bottom,” LOL!).

I love getting head and I love fucking ass. Few things excite me more than looking down at a cute boy giving me head, or lying with my naked body smashed against a hot young stud on his stomach as I thrust my dick deep (okay, as deep as I’m able, LOL) in his butt. I love finger- or dildo-fucking a tight young ass, and I love “nutting” on a hot guy’s face. I even like getting a little “rough” from time to time. By that I just mean grabbing a guy’s head while fucking his face, maybe slapping his ass while fucking him, nothing terribly kinky or imaginative I’m afraid. I’m actually embarrassingly awful at “dirty talk,” however….some of you might already have noticed this in my videos 😉 .

[Of course I also have a submissive side, and I’ve enjoyed that dynamic in interracial sex many times as well, moreso in the past than recently however. I *DO* suck dick in most of my scenes, although I don’t think I’m particularly good at it!]

There is NOT, however, any kind of exclusive or causal relationship between my attraction to black males and my interest in these themes. All of the “turn-ons” described above are just as much a part of my erotic fantasies/desires involving white boys, Latino and Hispanic boys, Thai boys, Japanese boys, and just about any race/ethnicity you can think of. I chose to focus on black boys (and hopefully a few Latino/Hispanic boys) primarily for two reasons:

First, they’re probably my preference (mostly for the reason I explained earlier).

Second, I thought I could bring something at least a tiny bit original to the world of amateur black porn. For example, most all-black scenes, even the more “amateurish” ones, don’t take their time and let you get to know the models. And obviously gay interracial scenes featuring white “tops” with black “bottoms” are incredibly rare (although I feel like this has been slowly changing over the past couple years). ESPECIALLY where the black “bottom” is a MASCULINE gay or bisexual boy, or a straight guy going “gay for pay!”

I can understand how the imagery in some of my videos might disturb or offend some people, black guys in particular. If you fit into that category, all I can do is encourage you to avoid my videos for the sake of your own mental and emotional peace. Or better yet, ignore the stuff that turns you off but stick around for the hot all-black content I still plan on producing!

But you know what??? For every guy who tells me that my videos are racist, exploitative, offensive, etc., I hear from at least ten others (including MANY black guys!) who think they’re hot as hell and say they can’t wait to see more!

At the end of the day, porn is almost always going to involve some degree of objectification and “exploitation.” That’s even a big part of its appeal, the idea that beautiful young men (of ALL races) are willing to show off their bodies and perform sexual acts (with varying degrees of enthusiasm) in exchange for a financial reward.

I also think that porn is one place where it’s OKAY to be a little “politically incorrect.” If you really think about it, porn (both gay AND straight) is all ABOUT stereotyping, racial and otherwise! It’s a medium that sort of demands such simplification in order to grab the viewer’s attention with a basic but powerful fantasy.

Burly firefighters, dumb blonde twinks, horny frat-boys, submissive Asians, lusty Italians, the list goes on and on. And yes, it also includes the “dangerous,” super-hung black thug from the “hood.”

In my everyday non-porn life, I can take my “political correctness” to extremes that annoy even my most liberal friends. But I feel like porn is one arena where we should all relax a little bit and enjoy the enormous erotic potential of character types and social stereotypes (as well as “twists” on those stereotypes).

Dragon is a hell of a lot more than a “schoolboy,” and Shyne (or Cortez, for that matter) certainly doesn’t fit neatly or consistently into the “thug” category. But my title isn’t meant as an insult to their complexity as human beings! Rather, it’s a fun and catchy way to understand and enjoy their video!

Similarly, domination and submission has always been a big part of both straight AND gay sexuality, and certainly it’s always been part of what makes a lot of straight and gay porn so hot. Seduction, conquest, sexual domination, rough sex….they’re present in just about every type of porn I’ve seen, including straight porn (interracial and non-interracial), lesbian porn, all-black gay porn, non-black gay porn, etc., etc.

Granted, there’s a wide spectrum ranging all the way from cutesy-cuddly-boyfriend-porn, to ultra-violent S&M torture-porn. But there’s almost ALWAYS at least a common theme where one or more participants is seduced, conquered, enjoyed, used, dominated, etc., and the other participants get to seduce, conquer, enjoy, use, dominate, etc. the submissive partner.

This is why things like gangbangs, double-penetration, face-fucking, and “facials” are such popular and predictable elements in porn. I don’t believe that gay sexuality is ALWAYS like this, or that it SHOULD always be like this, but in PORN it usually is. And I’m fine with that!

But as I see it, one either has to be fine with the dominant/submissive, top/bottom dynamic ACROSS THE BOARD, or oppose it altogether. You can’t pick and choose.

It can’t be “okay” for an aggressive black top like Thugzilla to verbally humiliate and fuck the shit out of submissive white bottoms and then NOT be “okay” for an aggressive WHITE top to do the same with black guys.

It can’t be acceptable for studios to pay straight young WHITE boys to go “gay for pay” in the enormously popular “frat boy” and “military” genres, but “racist” and offensive for studios to do the same thing with straight young BLACK guys.One shouldn’t assume racist or otherwise suspicious motives every time a white guy “tops” a black guy any more than one should assume that all black guys who top white guys are anti-white, or black men who fuck other black men want to demean and humiliate their own race, or straight male porn-stars who fuck (and even dominate) women are misogynists.

I hope this better explains where I’m coming from! And don’t worry, I’ll be back with more PORN tomorrow!

Controversial Porn and My “Catch-22”

Posted by Michael on June 4th, 2008

When I started Black Boy Addictionz last fall, I knew that some of the videos I wanted to make would be controversial. I think a mischievous part of me actually ENJOYS pushing people’s buttons….just ask my family and friends, I’m sure they’d tell you that I’ve mastered the art of provocation 😉 !

I anticipated that a lot of guys, both black and white, would be turned off and in some cases PISSED off at my decision to film scenes where masculine black males (even “thugs,” in some cases) perform “submissive” sexual acts with white males. The vast majority (probably 99.9999%) of gay interracial porn consists of the stereotypical hung black stud fucking the hell out of a sissy white bottom, to the point that any departure from that stereotype strikes some as “unnatural” and distasteful. This is so deeply engrained in our conceptions of gay interracial sex that the amateur producer Joe Schmoe recently coined the term “reverse interracial” to describe scenes where the black male sucks dick or gets fucked by a white guy. I’ve even heard from some black guys who go so far as to say it’s “racist” any time a white man takes the “top” role with a black guy. [To be fair, I’ve also heard from MANY guys, both white AND black (and neither), who WELCOME the change of pace.]

What I *DIDN’T* anticipate, however, was the kind of negative, even HOSTILE, reaction by some to the “straight seduction”/”gay for pay” theme itself (regardless of its racial make-up). I’ve been accused of exploitation, rape, manipulation, cruelty, torture….Hell, reading through some of the comments on my X-Tube clips, you’d think I should be reported to Amnesty International for crimes against humanity!

I’m beginning to think that a lot of this hostility comes from a lack of familiarity with the history and diversity of gay erotica, and a very limited exposure to AMATEUR porn in particular.

A big part of it is generational, I think. Most of the negative feedback comes from young black guys who’ve only been watching gay porn for a couple years at the most. They’ve been raised on a porn diet of predictable, black-only porn scenes where the “tops are tops” and the “bottoms are bottoms.” Videos like mine are as foreign to them as everything else that happened before 1990 😉 . They seem to have no idea that my videos are part of a genre that’s been around for decades!

I’ve been obsessed with “straight boy” porn since I first started watching porn in college. For the longest time I was addicted to the young Adonises of Bel Ami, beautiful straight boys from Eastern Europe who the legendary director George Duroy would recruit from poor villages into lives of “gay for pay” porn. My influences since then are too many to describe here. They range from comically staged fantasies to gritty, documentary-style “reality porn” depicting actual straight boys selling their young bodies for cash.

I suppose it’s fair to question the “morality” of such films (just as I suppose it’s fair to debate the “morality” of porn itself).

I have to confess, however, that what some find morally reprehensible are the very same things that turn me on the most! While I certainly don’t condone rape or violence, there’s a huge gray area between passionate, eager lovemaking and the extreme of non-consensual sex, that has a lot of erotic potential.

Themes like economic coercion, prostitution, the “deflowering” of virgins, reluctance, initiations/hazing, sex in exchange for money or favors, etc. have always held a powerful erotic appeal for me in literature, film, erotic fiction, AND pornography. These themes have a long and vibrant history in both gay AND straight erotica, and I don’t see why their relatively mild manifestations in my own videos should be so shocking or offensive.

Over the next few weeks, I plan on presenting some of my porn inspirations on this blog as a way of better explaining where I’m coming from, and preparing readers for the release of my potentially controversial next video (I’m calling it Corrupting Cortez, if that tells you anything).

And that brings me to a kind of predicament I’ve gotten myself into with my videos, the “Catch 22” mentioned in the title of this post.

Some of my videos, like The Schoolboy and the Thug, will feature only black models in relatively conventional action scenes (but hopefully with a unique amateur vibe). The problem is that a lot of the fans for these types of videos do NOT enjoy interracial scenes, at least not the type that I’m making. In fact, a lot of them are the same folks who find my “gay for pay” films so disturbing and offensive.

Conversely, a lot of you who enjoy my videos for their interracial and/or “gay for pay” themes have complained that a video like Schoolboy is boring and unappealing.

It’s going to take some time before I know how much cross-over there is between these two camps. My fear at the moment, however, is that I’ll risk alienating both groups by offering videos they simply don’t like (or find offensive).

My feeling as I write this is that I should follow the advice given to me by one of the main guys at AMVC when I started making videos: Stick to the stuff that turns ME on, and trust that those turned on by the same things will buy my videos and remain loyal fans, while those who aren’t will eventually move on to producers who better satisfy their erotic tastes.
