Blacked review: the group’s original brand
Blacked is where Vixen Media Group (VMG) started. It launched more than a decade ago under director Greg Lansky and focuses on interracial storylines. This Blacked review looks at the content, the 4K player, what a membership costs according to recent third-party checks, and the billing issues that show up most often in public feedback. Blacked’s own join page did not load with our research tools, so every price below is approximate.
The short version: Blacked is a premium, well-produced site with the deepest archive in the VMG family, and it deserves its reputation for production quality. The things to watch are the commercial details, especially the trial’s higher rebill and add-on sign-ups reported by some members. Visit Blacked
How we researched: we used the group’s corporate material, public descriptions of the brand, third-party price checks and reviews, and published user feedback. We did not run a paid test account, and we flag where sources disagree.
Content and niches
Wikipedia describes Blacked as VMG’s interracial brand, with scenes mostly pairing black men and white women. That is the whole identity of the site, so the main question is whether the theme interests you. Scenes are scripted and produced like short films, with set design, styling and photography, and all performers are adults. We keep descriptions of the content non-explicit and judge production and value, not the pairings.
Because Blacked has run longer than its sister sites, its catalog is the largest in the group. Reviewers describe it as a decade or more of weekly releases, which means hundreds of scenes to work through. VMG also runs Blacked Raw, a separate gonzo-style site on the same theme. If you want a wider look at the category, our best interracial porn sites ranking compares Blacked with other studios, and our Vixen review covers the glamour flagship if you want more range.
Video quality and player
Third-party reviewers report 4K streaming on recent scenes and at least 1080p for older ones, with adaptive playback that adjusts to your connection. The site works in a browser on desktop, mobile, tablet and smart TV; we could not confirm a dedicated app. Scene length is typically 30 to 50 minutes, so a single release can fill an evening. Our best 4K porn sites list covers other high-resolution options.
Downloads are reported in multiple formats and resolutions, and a full 4K file is described as around 5 to 8 GB. Some plans reportedly impose daily caps, and older Trustpilot reviews mention a weekly cap of 25 downloads that was not disclosed clearly at purchase. Trial access is described as limited, with a couple of reviewers saying they could open only a few videos. Plan on streaming first, and treat downloads as a bonus until you have read the access terms.
Updates and library
New scenes are reported weekly, with one to two releases a week in one reviewer’s FAQ. Combined with the long archive, that gives a library big enough to justify a longer term. The earliest scenes pre-date the group’s current production standard, so expect some variation in look between the oldest and newest material, although outside reviewers describe the overall quality as consistent.
Blacked or Blacked Raw?
VMG runs two sites on this theme, and they suit different tastes. Blacked is the polished, cinematic version with scripted setups, designed sets and long scenes. Blacked Raw is described as the gonzo-style counterpart, with a more spontaneous, less produced feel. They are separate sites, and we could not confirm that one membership covers both, so decide which look you prefer before you pay. If you are undecided, the main Blacked site is the safer starting point because it has the longer archive and a more consistent look.
Blacked price and membership options
These figures come from third-party price checks of the signup page. They are approximate and dated, and can change or vary by region and offer.
| Option | Reported price | What to know |
|---|---|---|
| Two-day trial | Around $1 to $2 | Reportedly rebills around $34.95 every 30 days |
| 30 days | Around $29.95 | Five dollars below the trial rebill |
| 365 days | Around $159.95 | Roughly $13.30 per month; confirm whether it renews |
| Nine-site package | Around $69.95 per month | Reported yearly price around $599.95 |
Intermediate terms of 90 and 180 days are reported at around $59.95 and $99.95. A separate review lists a $2 trial and $29.99 per month, and states that each VMG site requires its own subscription, so details differ by source. The most important detail is the trial: the introductory price is not what you will pay if you stay, and it is higher than the standard monthly plan.
Look for deals only through reliable channels. There is no verified public coupon code, and our Blacked discount page explains how savings actually work, mainly longer plans and special landing links.
Billing, privacy and cancellation
A third-party guide quotes Blacked’s own signup text as sending billing questions and cancellations to Epoch, Segpay, VXNBill, CentroBill or ECHST, its authorized processors. Your statement will likely show one of those names, not Blacked. Reviewers describe cancelling as simple, with access continuing until the end of the paid period. Our Epoch cancellation guide and Segpay cancellation guide cover the common routes.
The public record deserves a plain mention. Blacked’s Trustpilot page showed a low score from a small, unclaimed set of reviews with no new ones in the past year. Complaints included a charge during a so-called free trial, a full monthly charge after cancelling a two-day trial, being enrolled in other paid sites through checkout options, and a cancellation process that was hard to confirm. These are anecdotes and mostly older, but they are consistent with each other. Here is a safer sign-up routine:
- Choose your plan deliberately and read the rebill price before paying.
- Untick any extra membership or partner-site offer.
- Save the confirmation email and a screenshot of the order summary.
- Cancel through the processor named on the confirmation, then check for an email.
- Look at your next statement for any charge you did not expect.
Value for money
At around $30 for a single month, Blacked is not cheap, and you are paying for production quality rather than quantity. The value case rests on the archive: a long catalog of produced scenes means a longer term, such as 180 or 365 days, spreads the cost across plenty to watch. The value case weakens if you only want to sample, because the trial rebills higher and a one-month plan costs more than the longer terms per month. A practical approach is to decide whether you will use the site for several months and choose the term that matches, rather than defaulting to the trial.
Who Blacked is for, and alternatives
Blacked suits viewers who want this specific theme, a deep archive and high production values, and who are comfortable managing a subscription carefully. It is less suitable if you want a bargain trial, variety or unlimited downloads.

- Want several VMG brands? Compare the reported nine-site package price with two or three single-site plans.
Verdict: is Blacked worth it?
For its niche, yes. Blacked offers the deepest archive in the group, cinematic 4K production and weekly updates, which is hard to find in one membership. The cautions are the premium price, the trial that rebills higher and the billing complaints in public reviews. We rate it 8.5 out of 10.
