The Kenny Burns Show | EP. 178: A Conversation with Boris Kodjoe

This week on The Kenny Burns Show, actor, producer, and global heartthrob Boris Kodjoe pulls up for a powerful conversation about legacy, love, and navigating Hollywood while staying rooted in culture.

Tap in as KB and Boris take a walk through the moments that helped shape his career — from the early days of modeling during what he calls the “Tyson Beckford effect” to the life-changing opportunity that came with his breakout role in Soul Food— a groundbreaking series that not only introduced audiences to Boris, but also sparked the beginning of his real-life love story with his wife, Nicole Ari Parker.

The conversation also explores the cultural impact of classic films like Love & Basketball and Brown Sugar — the kind of cult classics that made audiences feel seen because they felt real and more!

As always, The Kenny Burns Show stays true to its credo — to inform, impact, and inspire — while preserving culture through meaningful conversations with the voices who help shape it.

Tap in for a conversation about career, culture, and building legacy the right way. 🎙️
