DAY 16: Chike Ozah is a New Orleans storyteller whose work reminds us how powerful the right lens can be. Born and raised in the city, Chike carries the rhythm, resilience, and complexity of New Orleans into every frame he creates. As one half of the directing duo Coodie & Chike, his vision helped form the early visuals of Kanye West alongside his creative partner Coodie, documenting pivotal moments long before the world fully understood what was unfolding. That same long-term dedication later became the Emmy-winning documentary series jeen-yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy, a project that redefined patience and belief in storytelling.

As a visual creator myself, I have deep gratitude for what Chike represents. He shows that you can document culture with integrity, stay committed to your subject, and still reach a global stage. His work is layered, intentional, and rooted in truth, and that inspires those of us who are behind the camera trying to tell our own stories with care. New Orleans doesn’t just produce performers, we produce visionaries. And Chike Ozah is one of them. 🎬⚜️

A recent memorable moment for me was shooting behind-the-scenes footage on a Hi8 film camcorder for the 2025 Essence magazine cover commemorating the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. Being able to witness and be a part of the creative process in any capacity was truly a dream come true.

Watching some of my favorite creators, E. Buckles and Chike Ozah, both from New Orleans, create something so powerful from an experience that was deeply tragic was incredibly inspiring. They reclaimed the narrative, transforming pain into beauty and using it to move the culture forward.

The Katrina Babies are rebuilding the spirit of the city by rising above it all. New Orleans learned to fly.

I asked @cozah one simple question: what’s one practice that will level up your cinematography? His answer might be exactly what you need.

Today is the day we vote for someone who will make sure our community is recognized in a way it has never been before. When the community is up, everyone is up!

It’s essential that we have a leader who truly understands the nuances of our culture, someone whose connection comes from shared experience. Whether lived directly, passed down through family, or shared among friends and teammates, that connection breeds empathy, conviction, and vision. We need someone who not only sees where change can be made but feels it, and who’s willing to ride with us no matter the stakes, because the soul of New Orleans runs through their veins. #rollingwithroyce

True leadership starts with perspective. It’s about understanding the struggles, the hopes, and the potential in every corner of our city. In this conversation, we sat down to talk about what it really takes to lead: understanding where people are coming from and creating real opportunities for everyone to succeed. Because a city only thrives when all of its people have the chance to thrive. This conversation reminded us why representation matters and why creating opportunities for everyone isn’t just good policy—it’s the foundation of a city that works for everyone.
Let’s roll to the polls October 11th!
