He made his mark, not just in your roles but in the way he redefined manhood out loud in a world where masculinity seems caged. Beyond his role as Omar from The Wire, any film or show he was in was made better the moment he appeared on screen. Truly one of the greatest actors of this generation.

54 is young. This one got me. 😭 The tortured artist is now at peace. May he rest in all the peace. 🕊🕊🕊
