In her own words,
“We just started short films, Afro Tales, whereby in every episode we give people different stories; stories that everybody can relate to.
“Also being in a position whereby I lost three women that I knew because of BBL [Brazilian Butt Lift]. And it wasn’t a funny feeling. You know somebody, and the next thing you hear is that she had a complication, she couldn’t walk, and then she died.
Different cases. So, I had to go into it [BBL] deeper. We had to write a story about that. And we did one episode of Afro Tales that was about BBL.”
Reflecting on her encounter with Don Jazzy, Fari Elysian added;
“Don Jazzy featured in my skit, but nobody knows that he responded to me after one year after my video went viral, and he saw it. And before we could shoot, it took him another four months before he created time for me. But Don Jazzy, baba don try for me.”
