This week's Blacktopia BLACK VISIONARIES spotlight is on established comic book creator / publisher, indie film producer, songwriter and musician SLOW CHEMICAL (Ryan White).
AS A COMIC BOOK CREATOR Although in many circles in the entertainment and media world our subject is known as "Slow Chemical", however in the comic book sphere he's acknowledged by his pen name (which also happens to be his "Government name") Ryan White. Ryan, is a very established comic book writer, creator and publisher that is the mastermind behind many classic indie titles such as Blind Men Lead, Dawn of the Mask, Late Justice and his latest project The Geneva Convention. Ryan White has spoken and presented at numerous Comic-Con panels across the nation as well as overseas. Ryan has plans on releasing and publishing many more titles, and expanding his per-existing material very soon. With the success of his current comic book series "The Geneva Convention" there is certainly no slowing down on his end now.

AS A MUSICIAN / SONGWRITER By day our hero is mild-mannered comic book author and originator Ryan White, but by night he is the outspoken, profound, complex lyricist, spoken word artist / rapper Slow Chemical. At the end of 2019, Slow Chemical released two back to back critically acclaimed music anthologies, the album Midnight Inspired and the follow up EP Serving All Masters which features guest contributions from Philonious Phunk (AKA "Phil Royal") from the nerdcore hip hop super group S.P.F. (Symphonic Pheenix Force) and from many others. Slow Chemical also produces and composes his own backdrops and tracks for his albums.
