Known for being a purveyor of pop culture-driven reality television, it is nearly impossible to turn on your television without feeling the dominance of the king – Carlos King. Originating from the great Motor City [Detroit], King – the CEO of Kingdom Reign Entertainment – is seemingly unstoppable when it comes to hot streaks of reality television.
Before the green screen Carlos had drive with a dream. While studying media and journalism at Wayne State University, the go-getter decided to move to New York City where he entered a matrix of interning – ABC’s The View, Def Jam Records, MTV, and later BET.
“I followed Puff Daddy’s school of thought, which was to get an internship because no one is going to turn down a freebie! I was an intern at BET when I was 25 years old. For these kids nowadays that’s the end of the road. But I didn’t care. I knew my road was going to be different. I wanted to get in the business.”
