After years of building a name in music, Stuntman Ron is stepping into a new lane—animation. His debut cartoon series, The Block, produced under Da Boi Funn’ Productions, premieres on Tubi in September 2025, marking a major milestone in his creative journey.
A New Chapter in Storytelling
“It feels great to see what I created be shown on a platform like Tubi,” Ron says. “It’s just the beginning of something amazing.”
The show is personal, inspired by his own life and the people around him. “The Block is a reflection on my life and other people’s experiences. It’s showing Black culture in a different way,” he explains.
Balancing Music and Animation
Already respected as a music artist, Ron has expanded into a new medium. “I just love creating and trying new things. I grew up watching animation and always wanted to create my own,” he says.
Meet the Characters
At the center of The Block is Pat, a young man navigating early adulthood in an urban setting. When his mother remarries a Jamaican man, G-Pop, Pat struggles to accept his new stepfather while chasing his dream of becoming a musician. The series explores family, culture, identity, and resilience. “It’s about the journey of a young Black male trying to make something of himself,” Ron shares.
Bringing It to Life
Ron not only created the show but also voices most of the characters, alongside collaborators Sean, Kathy, and John. “Being someone other than myself and showcasing that I can do other things,” he says, was one of the most rewarding parts.
The Tubi Connection
The project reached Tubi through a chance meeting. “I came across Adam, another creator and actor. He loved my show and helped me get it to the right people,” Ron explains. “Partnering with Tubi is the best thing that can happen for me and my career.”
Standing Out in Animation
With so many animated shows out there, Ron believes The Block stands apart. “It’s original, it’s new, and it’s a different take on Black culture,” he says.
Words for Other Creatives
His advice to others is simple: “Keep creating and staying consistent. Always try to improve your craft.”
As September approaches, fans will see how Stuntman Ron blends music, storytelling, and culture in The Block on Tubi. From beats to animation, this is only the beginning of his next chapter.
