Blacktopia Introduces Lala Amore: A Southern Powerhouse Quietly Shaping the Future of Black Media, Business, and Culture

 




🌟 Blacktopia Introduces Lala Amore: A Southern Powerhouse Quietly Shaping the Future of Black Media, Business, and Culture

         Blacktopia is proud to formally present and celebrate Lala Amore, a rising South Carolina based businesswoman, entrepreneur, and respected Southern public figure whose influence has been steadily growing beneath the surface... until now.

          For nearly a decade, Lala Amore has been a proud and committed member of Blacktopia: Black Utopian Society (https://www.facebook.com/groups/446575245495210) standing not only as a supporter of the movement, but as a woman who truly believes in its mission. While many contribute from the sidelines, Lala has consistently shown up with loyalty, vision, and an unmistakable sense of responsibility to the collective.

          In recent years, her role has naturally evolved. No longer just a member, Lala Amore has become an integral force on the administrative side of Blacktopia, helping welcome new members, strengthening internal initiatives, and actively moving the needle on community growth. Her leadership style is subtle yet powerful: thoughtful, intentional, and deeply rooted in uplift rather than ego.


A Vision Expanding Beyond the Screen

As Blacktopia looks ahead, 2026 is shaping up to be a defining year for Lala Amore.

With multiple creative and business ideas preparing to move from concept into full production, she is positioning herself as a woman who doesn’t just dream, but executes. Her forward momentum includes expanded content creation, strategic collaborations, and an increased presence in digital media spaces that value authenticity, depth, and cultural relevance.

          One of the most exciting chapters on the horizon is her involvement in helping launch the film production career of her daughter, Makayla Major. Makayla became one of the most talked-about attendees at the Tubi Meet and Greet, where her poise, presence, and natural magnetism quietly turned heads. It was a moment that signaled something powerful: legacy in motion.



Media, Conversation, and Cultural Impact

          In addition to her entrepreneurial pursuits, Lala Amore is also stepping confidently into the world of media and conversation. She is currently co-hosting The Session Podcast alongside Jonathan Coleman of The Media Blast PR, engaging audiences in thoughtful dialogue around culture, growth, relationships, and modern Black excellence.

          Her on-mic presence reflects exactly who she is off-camera...grounded, insightful, and effortlessly compelling. She speaks with the calm confidence of a woman who knows her value and understands the responsibility that comes with visibility.


A Woman Worth Watching

Lala Amore represents the kind of leadership Blacktopia has always stood for: organic, community-centered, and forward-thinking. She is not chasing attention, the attention is catching up to her!

As she prepares to make major moves in 2026, Blacktopia is honored to stand beside her and witness the evolution. This is not a sudden rise, it is the natural unfolding of a woman who has been building quietly, deliberately, and with purpose.

We are proud. We are watching. And the best is just beginning.

A Story That Hits You Hard....and Stays With You

The film’s haunting premise strikes a chord from the very first scene:

A young girl’s dreams of meeting her favorite artist are quickly shattered when the encounter turns sinister.

The result is a tense, emotionally layered story that exposes the dangers hidden beneath fame, trust, and admiration, a story made even more compelling by its stellar cast:

The film also includes a memorable appearance by the immensely talented Libby Williams, a prominent actress and model whose on-screen presence continues to grow with each new role.


Felicia “Geechee One” Rivers: A Director With Vision, Heart, and Unshakable Impact


At the helm of Rich Intent is acclaimed filmmaker Felicia “Geechee One” Rivers, whose name has become synonymous with innovation in independent cinema.

It’s no wonder fans of southern indie cinema often describe Felicia Rivers as a quiet powerhouse, a visionary who consistently elevates every actor, writer, and project she touches.



Courtney Simone: The Pen Behind the Pain, the Power, and the Plot

The emotional weight of Rich Intent wouldn’t exist without the brilliant and fearless writing of Courtney Simone, renowned urban fiction author, screenwriter, and storytelling force.

Courtney’s gift lies in writing stories that feel real, stories that pull viewers into familiar neighborhoods, familiar emotions, and familiar dangers. She builds characters with depth, conflict, and vulnerability, making their victories and losses feel like our own.

Her screenplay for Rich Intent is gripping, beautifully layered, and unapologetically truthful. Viewers have praised her writing for being:

  • Authentic

  • Emotional

  • Culturally resonant

  • Impossible to forget
