Kold x Windy follows talented artists Malika “Kold” Wise and Renee “Windy” Johnson. Kold wants a better life for himself and his son, while Windy is devoted to the street. Sh’Kia Augustin and Nijah Brenea say EXCLUSIVELY to hollywood life about the dynamic series between the two women at the heart of the show.
“I think it’s the opportunity of a lifetime because behind the violence and all the heart of the movie, it’s really about two women trying to grow, two women trying to grow, Two women are trying to make their dreams come true. I think people can relate to that,” said Sh’Kia. “So personally, I hope people don’t just watch the show and think it’s about violence or think we’re trying to promote violence. I think the movie is really about two women who are really, really just going in two different directions, but they want to be together, they love each other, they love Kold and Windy, and they’re trying to grow together. develop. But because they have two different ideas of how to grow, it creates tension in their relationship. But I think people will be inspired by seeing them and how they handle those situations and how they grow and develop.”
Nijah revealed that Windy is “certainly family-oriented”, but when it comes to romance it’s when “she’s having a bit of a hard time”. She added, “I really feel like credibility on the street and being on the street and rapping is very, very important to her. When it comes to love, romance or hurt, it sounds soft and weak. I think Windy definitely tries to stay away from that, and you’ll see on screen other reasons why romance doesn’t appeal to her because of the things she’s been through.”
Because the series has a literal title Kold x Windy, it is imperative that the actresses behind the roles have an easy chemistry with each other. Sh’Kia revealed that she and Nijah “bitten” each other as soon as they met. “I remember booking the role, then one of the producers sent me a text and said, ‘This is Nijah’s number.’ I was about to text her, and I think the message has arrived. It’s really interesting. I was like, okay, she came with this energy, I feel like I can give it back.
She continued, “I feel like from that day to the end, even now, we talk literally every day or every other day. I think it’s just because we naturally clicked on a text message that has evolved into voice memos and now we just send voice memos over and over again. It just gives us a chance to get to know each other’s energy when we’re not together. So by the time we actually met, I felt like we probably had a week or two before we booked before we met. When I actually see her in person, it really feels like I already know her.”
