Produced in Collaboration with Walmart to Spotlight Authentic Black Stories
ATLANTA, Aug. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today, REVOLT, the leading Black-owned multimedia company, announced the return of the hit game-show series “Receipts,” which is already garnering widespread acclaim since it’s Season 2 premiere. Aligning with Black Business Month, the series, hosted by comedian LaLa Milan and produced in collaboration with Walmart, continues to reimagine Black excellence by spotlighting the unique and hidden talents within the Black community.
Powered by REVOLT’s in-house branded content team in partnership with Walmart, “Receipts” connects Walmart’s retail products to the cultural meaning of “receipts” in the Black community. Each episode features industry favorites and culture curators like Joey Bada$$, Serayah, Flau’jae Johnson, Mack Wilds, Gia Peppers, Lecrae, and more, who compete to uncover the unexpected identities of seemingly ordinary shoppers by interpreting clues from Walmart receipts.
“We are thrilled to bring a second season of ‘Receipts’ to our audience. This show is a testament to the power of storytelling and its ability to uncover the extraordinary within the ordinary,” said Andre Woolery, Senior Vice President of Branded Content of REVOLT. “Our ongoing partnership with Walmart underscores our shared commitment to celebrating the richness and diversity of the Black experience. Through ‘Receipts,’ we are not just tearing up receipts, we are tearing down outdated narratives, and together, we’re shining a light on the extraordinary stories that make up our community.”
The premiere episode of Season 2 has already made a remarkable impact, amassing over 3 million views on YouTube alone. This impressive milestone underscores the show’s growing popularity and the widespread appeal of its unique format, setting the stage for an exciting season ahead.
Walmart is deepening its commitment to celebrating Black excellence through its partnership with REVOLT on the “Receipts” series. This collaboration not only highlights Black-led businesses within the show but also aligns with Walmart’s Black and Unlimited platform, which celebrates the community’s limitless potential. “Receipts” embodies this spirit by revealing how even the most ordinary items, such as receipts, can uncover profound insights into hidden passions and untold stories.
This season promises to deliver more laughter, new discoveries, and offer a fresh perspective on the remarkable talents within the Black community. “Receipts” airs on REVOLT’s linear channel, with new episodes debuting monthly on Thursdays and available to stream on REVOLT’s digital and social channels the following Fridays.
