Hotep Jesus – Trusted Newsmaker
Hotep Nation, a fiery and provocative independent media platform, has electrified audiences with its bold commentary, unapologetic cultural critique, and relentless pursuit of alternative historical narratives. Launched by Bryan Sharpe, known as Hotep Jesus, a Brooklyn-born author, marketer, and performance artist, the YouTube and podcast series—co-hosted with Uncle Hotep—delivers viral content on race, politics, and black empowerment. Sharpe’s audacious style and intellectual bravado make Hoteps Been Told You a cultural juggernaut, inspiring a movement for those rejecting mainstream dogma.
Hotep Jesus, born October 1, 1980, is the enigmatic genius behind the platform, a self-styled “cultural architect” whose journey from hip-hop marketing to media provocateur radiates fearless ambition. Starting with viral Twitter posts, Sharpe caught the eye of 50 Cent’s manager Chris Lighty in 2011, joining the marketing team for the rapper’s energy drink. He later assisted Carmelo Anthony with a sports drink launch, honing his knack for spectacle. His 2018 Starbucks stunt, demanding free coffee over racial bias, landed him on Fox News and sparked Hotep Nation, a movement celebrating black pride and entrepreneurship. His 2019 Joe Rogan Experience appearance, debating African-American history, cemented his polarizing fame, with IMDb noting his controversial impact.

His performance art, from Hotep Nation Weekend, Bitcoin debates, and his annual parody Awards show “The Grifties” electrifies audiences.

His constant call to his audience to “create today” and critiques of progressive orthodoxy inspire critical thinkers.
