You can thank me later.

Black History Month is here and now more than ever, it’s time to uplift Black voices.

BET

Whether you’re after some style inspo, new dance moves, or are just in need of a good laugh, these 17 Black British content creators have got you covered.

1. Nella Rose

Instagram: @nellarosee

Nella Rose is the gift that just keeps on giving. Her NSFW vlogs, debates with friends, and try-on hauls never disappoint. This hilarious human is also who we have to thank for some of the most iconic catchphrases and memes of all time. “Are you not embarrazzed?” and “I’ve suffered for 19 years, it’s time to shake my ass on a yacht in Dubai” will go down in history. If you're not already, do yourself a favour and go follow her immediately.

2. Adeola Patronne

When she’s not rolling with a geezer, Adeola posts some of the most entertaining videos on YouTube. Aside from having impeccable style, Adeola has no filter whatsoever, so you can count on her to spill the tea every time. She also discusses a wide range of important topics on her channel, from natural hair to mental health. She gives the people what they want and that’s why we love her.

3. Victor Kunda

Instagram: @vctrknda

You need to reevaluate your life choices if you don’t follow Victor Kunda. This sketch comedian deserves all the flowers because he simply never misses. His skits cover everything from trivial topics to pertinent issues like racism and microaggressions. He somehow always manages to find unique and impressive ways of poking fun at the world around us and catching viewers off-guard with his one-liners. He must be protected at all costs.

getting home is never easy 🤣 you don’t have to be from Chelsea to relate

4. Simply Sayo

Instagram: @simplysayo

Simply Sayo’s comical spoken word performances are so captivating they’ll have you thinking you’re in a dimly lit jazz bar in no time. Her poem topics range from Notting Hill Carnival to African aunties, and are the perfect combination of humourous and painfully accurate. As soon as you see her legendary grey coat appear on your FYP, you know you’re in for a good time.

So Notting Hill Carnival is cancelled again 😔 #simplysayo #fyp #foryou #satire #comedy #island #islandgyal #nottinghill

5. ItsJustNifè

Taking TikTok by storm one dance at a time, Nifè really is a force to be reckoned with. She has choreographed some of the most popular TikTok dances to date, and has helped build a global community that celebrates afro-dance. If you want to perfect your moves before heading to a club after a long year indoors, she’s got you covered.

Another world-class dancer and choreographer is Regina Eigbe. Chances are if you have TikTok, you’ll have come across her legendary routines over the past year. Many of her dances have gone viral worldwide and have even made it to the stage of the Brit awards this year! The best part is she also posts tutorials so everyone can get involved.

7. Munya Chawawa

Instagram: @munyachawawa

Munya has taken sketch comedy to a whole new level. His parodies cover the hot topics of the day; whether that be the latest lockdown announcements, racist incidents, or questionable food trends. The comedic genius also manages to infuse pop culture-related easter eggs into each video, and we love to see it. In addition, he's introduced the world to the UK’s first posh drill rapper – Unknown P, as well as a number of other humorous characters. Munya has single-handedly gotten me through lockdown and I would risk it all for him.

Patricia also has a second channel called The Break where she reveals some invaluable money-saving tips.

9. Kyron Hamilton

Instagram: @kyron.hamilton

This talented comedian is known for his scarily accurate sketches about secondary school staff. Kyron must have been a teacher in another life because there’s no other explanation as to how he can embody their mannerisms so well! Watching his videos may give you flashbacks to your school days but his videos are far too funny to miss.

11. Henrie Kwushue

Henrie (more commonly known as Henrii) has been creating digital content for as long as I can remember. She's a radio and TV presenter, a DJ, and she also hosts the Who We Be TALKS_ podcast with fellow icon Harry Pinero. The dynamic duo interview some of the best in the game including Ian Wright, Saweetie, and Beenie Man, and they will have you in fits of laughter every single episode.

15. Victoria Adeyinka

Instagram: @victoriaadeyinka_

This Irish TikToker might just be the best thing to come out of 2020. Victoria’s sketches about couples, sibling rivalries, and student-teacher interactions are scarily accurate. But her skits about her African parents definitely take the cake. She highlights the quirks that only African mothers and fathers seem to have so accurately and she'll leave you in stitches. This is Victoria’s world and we’re just living in it.
