In May 2011, Redding got into a verbal altercation with Rush Limbaugh when he asked Michael Steele, the former chairman of the Republican National Committee, about a skit in which a Limbaugh staffer "reinterpreted" his criticism of Barack Obama's immigration speech in ebonics.[26]

In 2012, Redding was a syndicated talk radio host on Sirius XM where he hosted "Where's the Change? Why Neither Obama nor the GOP Can Solve America's Problems," at Temple University and Connecticut College where he discussed the impact of talk radio on the 2012 presidential election.[27][28]

In 2013, Redding interviewed recording artist Stromae about racism in Europe. Stromae spoke frankly about being called a "monkey", which inspired the singers hit Formidable.[29]

In 2017, Redding's reported CoverGirl's James Charles comments about "chubby Black women", Indians and Mexicans in 2017[30] prompting Charles to apologize for his comments.[31]

Writing

edit

Redding has written 16 bestselling books on Amazon's list, including Smeared, Target, Dark Soul and The Professor: Witnessing White Power (2019) ISBN 978-1692336233 [38][39][1][40] According to Consciousness Magazine, his 16th book, "Ritual," was No. 1 on Amazon and has been described as "a nearly 200-page investigation into the complex relationship between organized religion and societal norms," offering a "profound rethinking of religious practices" and being called "groundbreaking."[41]

In 2023, his 15th book Unquotable was said to be "filled with powerful illustrations created by Redding, while his witty writings unravel issues of race, class, politics and sexuality", according to New York's Black Star News.[42] The paper reported several months earlier that his brand new book Africa: How it can save the World dealing with where to go in time of a nuclear war was "his 14th book and seventh overall No.1 and 5th consecutive No. 1."[43] In 2023, his book 13th book "Smeared", also reached No. 1 and compromised his MFA thesis on Constructive Expressionism at Pratt Institute framed around "his powerful personal story," according to Black Star News. [44]  

Redding had his third consecutive No. 1 on Amazon.com with "Target: Unwrapping Racism" on August 30, 2021, a book that "ripped away the veil hiding the genesis of racism" and introduced "Visual Geographic Grounding"; it was his fifth No. 1 out of 12 consecutive bestsellers on the platform, following Dark Soul (No. 1 in summer 2020) and The Professor: Witnessing White Power (No. 2019 No. 1, later adapted into a stage play); Redding, "who is also a top-selling artist, artwork entitled 'Target' graces the book's plain white cover. This black circular 34X34 artwork on unstretched canvas is a depiction of an infant in utero riddled with two bullet holes."[45]

The Industry reported on May 26, 2020, that The Professor: Witnessing White Power was "Rob Redding's new hard-hitting book on gays in black leadership recently topped two of Amazon's coveted lists of new books," detailing "how gay interracial relationships and encounters have shaped black power, dissects the sex lives of Jean-Michel Basquiat, James Baldwin, Marvin Gaye, Richard Pryor, and Malcolm X, and contains explosive new information about Basquiat's relationship with Klaus Nomi," noting that "Redding—the first out bisexual black radio talk show host—has a national talk show listened to by a black mainstream audience in 20 states, has taught at Pace and City Tech universities in New York City, and has published several influential works on race and sexuality."[46]

Sinister Citizen, Redding's only foray into fiction, explores the tumultuous landscape of President Trump's America, released in 2017, was said to be "intriguing" and "fascinating" by KKXX, and reached top 30 on Amazon.[47] Rob Redding's Out Loud, which debuted at No. 2 on Amazon's "Hot New Releases" in the Gay and Lesbian Biographies and Memoirs category on November 6, 2017, is described by GAYLETTER as a "juicy" tell-all autobiography "of race and sexuality."[48] CBS remarked that his personal stories of bisexual interracial dating "came as a surprise to his personal friends and many who listen to 'The Redding News Review'," and called the book, which appears to be no longer available, "shocking."[49]

  Why Black Lives Matter: How Borigination Explains How to Get Police and Whites to Treat Blacks Like People, officially released on July 6, 2015, and described as a "new best-selling book explaining how to possibly end police brutality and racism," with a foreword penned by Dr. Lewis R. Gordon, reached No. 1 on Amazon's "Hot New Releases."[47]

Unthinkable: Poems, Philosophies and Paintings, released on July 7, 2014, was his  "sixth consecutive best seller with a Top 5 and Top 10 appearance respectively on Amazon.com."[50]

Not a Nonviolent Negro: How I Survived Obama debuted at No. 1 on Amazon on March 6, 2013, and was described by Consciousness Magazine as "ground-breaking; a modern blueprint to fearless literature," and given a rating of 4 out of 5 stars, the book is considered a "written composition consumed with extreme meaning, highlighting Redding's boldness, confidence and honesty."[51]

Disrupter: Pathway to Political Independence, Redding's second best-selling book, debuted at No. 1 on Amazon's "Hot New Releases" in "Political Reference" on August 13, 2012, described By Urban Radio Nation as a "new book on how to live a politically independent life," providing essays on how to answer questions about being an independent and giving references for independents.[52]

Curry said the book "will contribute to opening up some of the thoughts and primary material for people to think about Black philosophy," marking Redding's second best-selling book in less than 90 days, following Where's the Change? Why Neither Obama, nor the GOP Can Solve America's Problems, which landed among the top 30 books on Amazon in February, and was his second book since Hired Hatred: Why Politicians and the Political Prejudices They Tout Are Mutually Exclusive from Good Government, released in 2004.[53]

Where's the Change?: Why Neither Obama, nor the GOP Can Solve America's Problems, released on January 13, 2012, peaked at No. 30 on Amazon. In the book, Redding argued "that neither President Obama nor the Republicans can solve the country's problems."[54][55]

Black Music Radio

edit

Redding started in media in music radio working at a few stations. Redding, who went by the name Tony Smoove during his time at WIBB-FM in Macon, Georgia, began making waves in the radio industry at 20 years old, with the Macon Telegraph describing him as "not afraid to speak his mind" on his nightly talk show "What's on Your Mind at Nine," where his outspoken anti-gang stance led to death threats, though he reflected, "I don't think about it too much, but it's something that I keep in the back of my mind."[58]

He also was on staff at the station when it reached No. 1 in 1997, marking "the first time a black-oriented station has been on top of the Macon radio market," according to the Macon Telegraph.[59]

He departed from the top-rated station, citing that management was stifling him from apparently "pushing" rap during his "2 1/2 years" there.[60]

According to the Macon Telegraph, "Tony Smoove's Aircheck Volume 1" (1998), which featured "samples of Smoove's on-air patter with callers," was released after he joined the crosstown rival HipHop station WFXM. The disc also marked the first appearances of rapper Bubba Sparxxx, who was once in the bass group One Card Shi, and rapper Sonny Spoon.[61]

He departed from that station after about a year, apparently to pursue news and talk radio in April 1999, according to the Macon Telegraph. [62]

Since leaving Black music radio, he's ventured into talk radio, authored books, continued his musical pursuits, and curated multimedia art exhibitions. His music albums include "Not a Nonviolent Negro" (2013) and "Unleash the Whip" (2012).[63] Additionally, Redding narrated the film "Stay, Brady, Stay" (2009).[64] According to MediaBistro, Redding's influence extends beyond the airwaves and visual artifacts, as he was voted the third "Hottest Media Types, Male, On Air" for his broadcast show in 2008.[65] In the fall of 2024, he joined Ikon Models, further diversifying his portfolio of creative expressions, as reported by Consciousness Magazine.[66]

 
Rob Redding in front of Black Power: Unapologetically Militant (70X93) 2021

According to Consciousness Magazine, Rob Redding held a "highly successful solo art show" titled "Black & White" at the Morningside Heights Library in New York City, which ran for the entire month of September 2024.[41] A few days later, Redding also "rocked the queer art world" when he exhibited a collection of "10 avant-garde reflective images at the Soho Project Space in New York."[41]

In June 2023, Redding, who holds an MFA and MA in communication, was called "The Master of Commentary and Canvas" as Consciousness Magazine placed him on the cover of its publication. The magazine said Redding makes "monochrome look magnificent on every canvas he touches" and called his work "racy."[67] A few months later, Redding was featured in The New Criterion for his work "Kenosha 7: Pow, Pow, Pow, Pow, Pow, Pow, Pow and Jacob Blake's Life is Changed Forever" in a show entitled "There is a Certain Slant of Light" at Pratt Manhattan Gallery.[68]

In May 2023, New York's Black Star News called him a "mixture of bright, bold, and brash" for his "salacious" art piece "Bad Words" which contains gay slurs on mirrors to confront and provoke conversation on presidential candidate Ron DeSantis over his "don't say gay" bill.[69] Earlier that same year, his "Constructive Expressionism" style was described as "highly original" by Black Star News, which covered his new book about his art called Smeared (2023).[5]

In 2017, art reviewer Per Larson called his work "iconic" and compared him to "James Baldwin" because he once lived in Europe.[70]

In 2018 he exhibited his first Manhattan solo show BIG BLACK ̶C̶O̶C̶K̶ CANVAS: SIZE matters – in ART! at the NoHoM55 Gallery in Chelsea in 2018.[1] Redding's artwork Black Power: Unapologetically Militant was exhibited in the Fridman Gallery and later sold for $10,000.[1] His work appeared in the May 2021 edition of Art in America.[1][71]
