Tariq Allah Nasheed (born July 1),[1] also known as Tariq Elite,[2] King Flex,[3] and K-Flex,[4] is an American film producer.[5][6]

Film career[edit]

Documentaries[edit]

He has produced a documentary about the history of Haiti called 1804: The Hidden History of Haiti that was released in the fall of 2017.[7]

Hidden Colors series[edit]

Nasheed produced the 2011 documentary film Hidden Colors: The Untold History of People of Aboriginal, Moor, and African Descent.[8][9] Nasheed's follow-up film and DVD, Hidden Colors 2: The Triumph of Melanin, was released in 2012.[10][6]

In 2014, Nasheed released Hidden Colors 3: The Rules of Racism.[11]

Hidden Colors 4: The Religion of White Supremacy was released in June 2016.[12]

Hidden Colors 5: The Art of Black Warfare was released in August 2019.[12] During a screening of the film in the UK, Nasheed was banned from entering the country by the UK Home Office as he was deemed "not conducive to the public good."[13]

In 2013, Nasheed released the horror film Dark Medicine, which he also wrote and directed.[14]

Music career[edit]

Nasheed is the lead singer of the R&B musical group Mink Slide.[15] Mink Slide's first album, Egyptian Musk, debuted at #12 on Billboard R&B Albums charts in 2018.[16]

Use of term "bed wench"[edit]

Nasheed has referred to black women who date interracially as "bed wenches" on social media.[17] In using this term, which historically was used to disparage black women who were raped by their masters during slavery, he has revived and popularized its use.[18] However his use of the term has been criticized because a black woman who chooses to have consensual sex outside of her race is not included within the traditional definition of the term.[19] In Nasheed’s conception of the term a bed wench is a black women who challenges the institutions of black patriarchy.[18]

He has also coined the term “Negro bed wench mentality” which he has expanded upon in great detail on his podcast.[18]
