Important Announcement Re: Revised Update Schedule
Posted by Michael on September 8th, 2017
I know a lot of you seem to think I’m some kind of sadist sitting on a beach somewhere, sipping margaritas and counting stacks of money and laughing at BBA’s members while making them anxiously wait for the next website update, LOL. But nothing could be further from the truth!
The reality is that BBA consumes the vast majority of my life and my time (at a MINIMUM, 70 hours a week), and I work my ass off each and every week to plan, film, edit, process, publish, and promote the new scenes that go up on the site. Most weeks I’m trying to edit a lengthy action scene out of literally HOURS of raw footage, a process that can be extremely slow and time-consuming. I do this because I’m truly passionate about what I do and want only the best for BBA’s loyal viewers and fans.
Creating the kind of unique and exciting content that you’ve come to crave and expect is ALWAYS going to be my #1 priority and goal. Sometimes this means taking an extra few hours to create a “previously on” intro montage to enhance a scene with added context and suspense. Or devoting an extra hour or two to making subtitles for parts of quiet or mumbled dialogue that I know will make the scene ten times hotter.
Sometimes these types of creative choices result in scenes going up on the site several hours or even a day or two later than planned. Sometimes it means taking entire weekends off to focus on special trips and production plans. As a long-time porn consumer myself, I’m sympathetic to the frustration and impatience that comes with having to wait for new content. But at the end of the day, I am ALWAYS going to prioritize creating the hottest possible content over meeting an arbitrary and creatively restrictive deadline.
With this in mind, I’ve come to the humbling realization over the past several months that I simply can’t keep up with the expensive and exhausting pace of production demanded by a weekly schedule, at least not if I want to continue producing the kinds of unique, lengthy, and often costly scenes that I’m proud to share with BBA’s members.
Too often, this has led to situations where I feel pressured into posting inferior and disappointing content just to keep up with an unrealistic schedule. And more often than not, viewers end up feeling just as frustrated and disappointed by the weak update as they would have been if I’d posted nothing at all!
After consulting with Montez and other peers in the industry, I’ve made the difficult decision to scale BBA’s update schedule back to THREE updates a month instead of four, with the updates still being posted on Fridays. The “off” weekends will vary depending on my travel and production schedule, and on these weekends I think I’m going to try something new by highlighting classic scenes from the archives that BBA’s viewers might have forgotten about or simply never discovered – at discounted rates for a limited time.
As always, my goal will continue to be delivering unique and unforgettable scenes on enough of a regular basis that a monthly subscription will still be worthwhile. If for whatever reason, you don’t feel like this is the case, or your personal porn tastes tend to be pretty narrow, then I’d encourage you to check out our credits alternative that allows you to enjoy BBA’s content on a scene by scene basis. Your credits will never expire, and you can spend them only on the models and scenes that really interest you.
If you want sloppy and forgettable 20-minute scenes featuring the same over-exposed “porn stars” over and over, then there are certainly other sites that will offer that like clockwork at the same exact time every week – and in most cases, charge you MORE in the process. I could easily update the site every week if I was settling for that same shitty standard.
If, on the other hand, you value the types of lengthy, unique scenes that BBA offers, then I hope you’ll be able to respect and appreciate the time, expense, and hard work that goes into making them possible and understand this much-needed change in the update schedule.
Website Update: Shaun – The Next Level
Posted by Michael on September 2nd, 2017
There’s good news and bad news for fans of Scotty and Shaun:
The good news is that Shaun is finally out after being locked up for nearly nine months, and he’s ready to take things to the NEXT LEVEL. The bad news is that less than a week after Shaun was released, Scotty turned around and got locked up himself!
Of course we all know what this means: Now it’s SHAUN’s turn to start paying back what he owes and return the favor by doing whatever is necessary to keep money on Scotty’s “books” while he’s locked up….
Website Update: Detroit After Dark – Episode Three
Posted by Michael on August 20th, 2017
We’re concluding our recent Detroit series with a much-anticipated and long overdue pairing between two of BBA’s most popular and well-endowed “tops.”
For almost a year, Blake Bishop and Bandit have been locked in an epic back-and-forth battle for the ranking of Third Most Popular model on the site (right behind Apollo and Isaiah). They were supposed to have met and worked together on at least THREE different occasions already, but every time it just hasn’t worked out.
Both guys have been eager to prove to each other as well as their fans why they deserve that #3 spot. And our recent trip to Detroit for Hotter Than July Pride provided the perfect opportunity for these competing fan favorites to FINALLY meet in person and settle the score once and for all.
See for yourself what happens when Blake Bishop finally meets up with Bandit in Detroit for a much-requested and historic encounter that includes nearly a FULL HOUR of tongue-kissing, dick-sucking, ass-licking, and RAW flip-flop fucking that you do NOT want to miss!
Website Update: Detroit After Dark – Episode Two
Posted by Michael on August 12th, 2017
BBA recently made its very first public appearance at Hotter Than July Detroit Pride.
Montez and I were joined by Rico Pruitt, Blake Bishop, Stylez, and Shazeer for an unforgettable weekend full of laughter, fun, and excitement. Detroit native Bandit even made a special surprise appearance!
By day, the guys were able to meet and mingle with their amazing fans, take pics with them, sign BBA t-shirts and posters, etc. But Detroit after dark is when things REALLY started to get interesting. And luckily we had the camera with us so you wouldn’t miss out on a thing 😉 !
Go behind the scenes with Rico Pruitt and some of your favorite BBA models to see what went down behind closed doors when BBA took over Detroit….

Detroit Pride to Kick Off BBA Tour July 27-30!
Posted by Michael on July 18th, 2017
As most of you have probably heard by now, our BBA Tour got off to a rocky start a few weeks ago (you can read more about what happened on our new BBA Twitter).
As disappointing and discouraging as that was, we are NOT giving up on the idea of a BBA Tour just yet, and we are excited to announce that Black Boy Addictionz is a special sponsor for this year’s Detroit Hotter Than July Gay Pride!
Detroit Pride runs from July 25th-30th but the boys of BBA will be there beginning on the 27th. If you live in Detroit or the surrounding area, please come party with us as BBA’s Chief Marketing Director Montez brings along exclusive BBA models Rico Pruitt, Blake Bishop, Stylez & Shazeer for a weekend full of fun events! I might even make a special appearance myself 😉 .
Check out the official Detroit Pride website and be sure to follow the new BBA Twitter for the latest info and updates on specific events and where we will be throughout the weekend.
If you live in the Detroit area or if you’re able to travel, we hope you’ll take advantage of this special opportunity to meet and mingle with some of your favorite BBA models up close and in person! Look forward to seeing you there!
Website Update: Kids These Days
Posted by Michael on July 16th, 2017
When I was growing up, it seemed like most guys didn’t start accepting or truly exploring their sexuality until college or their early twenties, if even then. Not sure if it’s a sign of social progress or maybe just something in the water, but I swear “kids these days” are turning into uninhibited FREAKS before they’re even out of their teens!
Look no further than this weekend’s spontaneous and unpredictable threesome for a perfect example of this. Just barely 18 and fresh out of high school, Luh Redd and Kayden are ready and eager to prove they have what it takes to join Kody as part of BBA’s next generation of stars!
Things start off with all three boys hanging out on the patio on a hot summer day and swapping stories about where they lost their virginity. This leads to a flirtatious comparison to see which one of them has the biggest ass….
Next thing you know, hard dicks are being pulled out, young hands begin groping and exploring, and these horny black twinks start getting freaky right there on the balcony in the middle of the day!
Website Update: Tyga On The Prowl
Posted by Michael on July 16th, 2017
For this latest installment in our Young Directors Series, Lil Tyga leaves his “den” and takes us on a special summer road trip where he’s on the prowl for new talent and fresh meat.
While on the road, Lil Tyga runs into an old friend and decides to talk him and his freaky new boyfriend into trying porn for the very first time. (Those of you who prefer your black boys with a little more meat on their bones should find the beefy boyfriend Pharoah a nice change of pace).
Sit back, relax, and enjoy the voyeuristic thrill of “spying” on this intimate session between two real-life boyfriends in their very first time together in front of a camera….
Summer Schedule Update
Posted by Michael on July 7th, 2017
Sorry for being such a stranger here on the blog lately! Hope everyone had a safe and fun holiday weekend.
It’s been a pretty crazy summer around here so far…..I’ve been robbed at gunpoint by a former model (thankfully nobody was hurt), our first attempt at a public appearance was a total disaster (more on that later), I found myself less than 15 feet away from a grizzly bear in the Canadian Rockies (again, thankfully nobody got hurt), had to cut ties with a sleazy and dishonest business associate after catching him in an elaborate betrayal and scam, and on top of everything else been battling a miserable cold for over a week.
Not exactly your ordinary, average summer so far, LOL! But then again, anyone who’s been following this blog for any length of time already knows this has been anything but an ordinary life ever since I started BBA nearly ten years ago.
I’m happy to hear that the vast majority of you have been enjoying the fresh faces and exciting new scenes we’ve been bringing you lately. I know the recent update schedule has been far from ideal, but at the same time I personally think this year overall has featured some of our best and hottest scenes ever and I’m extremely proud of the content we’ve been bringing our loyal members so far. And the year’s still only halfway over!
Since my personal and production schedules are still far from back to normal, I’ve decided to continue with the unconventional, two updates every other week schedule for at least one more month. I honestly don’t like this any more than most of you seem to, and I have no intentions of making this a permanent change, but for now it’s the best and easiest way for me to continue bringing you the same amount of new content on a still somewhat regular basis.
And just to clarify, BBA’s monthly subscribers are still receiving the same number of updates, just spaced out a bit differently than usual. I hope to resume the regular weekly schedule some time in August.
Thanks for your continued patience with this temporary summer schedule. Hope everyone enjoys the TWO hot and lengthy new scenes just posted this past weekend, and while you’re anxiously waiting for next weekend to arrive, please enjoy the MANY hot and action-packed scenes from the past couple months, and/or any of the other 300-plus scenes currently available to BBA’s monthly subscribers.
I’m also going to try to take some time to catch up on responding to your questions and feedback, so be sure to be on the lookout for that as well.
Website Update: Training Trapp
Posted by Michael on July 3rd, 2017
Trapp seemed a bit overwhelmed after his first time with a guy, and I’m sure the fact that it had been with one of his closest friends didn’t make things any easier for him. He even tells us near the start of this scene that due to the awkwardness and stress of that whole situation, he and Scotty actually avoided each other for almost a full month after that shoot!
Suspecting that the understandably uncomfortable social dynamics of that initial encounter had inhibited Trapp’s true porn potential, I decided to try a different approach this time by pairing Trapp with an old pro like Saint in the hopes that a more experienced and open-minded straight model could help make him more comfortable with the idea of doing “gay for pay” scenes and hopefully unleash the sexy straight thug’s inner freak!
After a brief interview in which Trapp shares his honest reactions to that first encounter and listens to some helpful advice from his veteran trainer, we decide to try something a little bit different and kick things off with some naked wrestling (with baby oil this time).
Things are understandably awkward and even a little bit silly between these two straight strangers at first, with both guys nervously laughing and playfully squirting baby oil all over each others’ dark and glistening bodies….
But when they finally begin wrestling and rolling around naked together on the floor, something between them suddenly “clicks” and we’re treated to some of the most intensely passionate and surprisingly steamy action between “straight” guys that I’ve ever filmed!
I nearly had to turn off the camera and take a cold shower before continuing with the shoot 😉 !
