Why you can trust us: Our expert staff has extensively reviewed, tested, and researched streaming services and products since 2017. Our honest opinions and up-to-date information are why millions of people come to The Streamable. Take a look at how we test subscriptions and devices for Brown Sugar and others.

Brown Sugar was launched in 2017 by Bounce TV, a multicast African-American television network. With a selection of more than 300 films and shows, this VOD streaming service has a large collection of classic black cinema.

Brown Sugar claims to be the “biggest collection of the baddest movies” in the Blaxploitation genre. A subgenre of the 1970s grindhouse exploitation film movement, Blaxploitation refers to low-budget films with Black casts tackling racial and social issues in an entertaining fashion.

Amazon Prime Video members can purchase the channel add-on for $3.99 per month which includes a seven-day free trial.
