| Pros: |
- Original interracial porn unlike most anything else available.
- Insanely good picture quality.
- Top notch female and male talent, and great direction.
- A good number of threesomes, gangbangs, and orgies.
- No subpar scenes of what I watched.
- Access to additional streaming-only content through accruing points. |
| Cons: |
- A download limit of 25 scenes per week.
- Younger than more long-running IR sites (Blacked, Dogfart etc.) so with a smaller library.
- Some early scenes are somewhat rough.
- No free bonus sites. |
| Bottom Line: |
Every year I join a porn site that will allow me to download a bunch of scenes before I cancel. For this past year, my choice was Blacked Raw, an interracial porn site—the first pure IR site I’ve joined. It’s light on story and heavy on sex, shooting videos in a unique way with a strong lighting source in an otherwise darkened room. It’s professional porn looking glorious, but with a subtly amateurish feel, that’s fresh and involving for the viewer. One tactic used by many scenes is intermixing the video footage with cell-phone-like recordings early in the action.
These scenes are available picture quality as strong as I have ever seen in porn (and I’ve watched my share on different platforms); file sizes are big, but size is well worth it. You can stream or download movies in up to 4K resolution; having experienced up to its 1080p, I can only imagine the Ultra HD. I could stream on my TV using my PS4’s internet browser and play scenes from downloads on an external drive. They used to do a scene once every five days, but once COVID hit it shifted to one every seven, and when I was there they had nearly 200 total. That’s a small number compared to the Brazzers and Reality Kings of the porn world, but the quality in style, production, the caliber of female and male talent, and really everything in the movies is top notch. Some of the earlier scenes do not look as great (they must have been experimenting with lighting techniques) but they do improve after. Of all I’ve watched nothing would I call a disappointment, and most, based on the ten-point scale BR uses, I’d give 9s or 10s. Stars like Riley Reid and Adriana Chechik delight, as do those lesser-known.
Unfortunately, you don’t get any free bonus sites with a BR subscription, though it’s part of a family of sites including Vixen and Tushy among others. You can get discounts to the other sites, but none come together (unless you want a six-site package that’s quite expensive). There’s a download limit of 25 scenes per week. I’m not sure it was there though all my subscription, but if it was I wouldn’t have hit it. 3.6 scenes a day on average is plenty for me. One nice new thing, which I’ve quite enjoyed with my subsequent subscription to Tushy, is the ability to accrue points and use them to access select scenes from other companies like HardX and Evil Angel—streaming only but still a nice addition.
Those who are looking for more traditional IR porn might want to try its sister site Blacked, or to Dogfart or DarkX, all of which are solid and have many more scenes for being around years longer. But if you’re interested in something different, and indeed raw, with eye-popping visuals and great black-on-white sex, then you can’t go wrong with Blacked Raw. |

| Pros: |
-Mason, one of the best directors in all of porn.
-Well over 1,000 original scenes, hundreds available in 4K, spread over the five sites of XEmpire.
-The biggest stars, veterans and newbies alike.
-Lots of anal sex, interracial, & decent amounts of DP, gangbang, blowbang, & threesome porn.
-For the above-mentioned reasons, the quality is superb, very few duds.
-Bonus videos from partner sites. |
| Cons: |
-In terms of quantity, it doesn't compare with certain other porn "empires".
-LexbianX & EroticaX are not as compelling (for my taste) as the other 3 sites.
-Not a lot of storyline porn outside one of their sites, if that's what you like.
-Includes compilations which aren’t adequate replacements for original scenes. |
| Bottom Line: |
XEmpire is porn empire of sorts, if one that’s not as long running or as packed full of content as the likes of Brazzers or Evil Angel, and certainly far short of the empire that is Adult Time. It’s brought to us by Mason, who directs the large majority of scenes on 4 out of their 5 sites and was my biggest reason for subscribing to it, being a fan of hers since she her days at Elegant Angel (that studio has not been as good since she left). Place her alongside both bonified stars and sexy newbies, and a selection of over 1,200 unique, exclusive vids (not including comps or partner site content), all in high quality 1080p and hundreds of the latest also in 4k res, this is a place hardcore porn fans should definitely consider.
For a while after COVID broke out in early 2020 they released mostly compilations—a nice thing for deciding if you want to subscribe to a site in the first place, but paying customers really want the full scenes (I understand they were in a tough situation). When I was on the site DarkX and LesbianX were each only updating with new material about once a month, and it was only slightly more often for AllBlackX. LesbianX is personally my least favorite—for lesbian porn I typically prefer storylines, though I saw a few standout scenes in my time there (like one with Abella Danger and Jada Stevens). As an interracial fan I appreciate DarkX, though it has shifted from storylines to basically all-sex porn, perhaps another change due to the pandemic (check out a hot anal scene with Bella Rolland). AllBlackX, while the smallest collection as it began more recently, is a terrific promotion for black-on-black porn that’s lacking on most major sites (a scene with Avery Jane doing anal is outstanding). EroticaX is a bit of an odd one against the other four, the last one still doing storylines and the only one Mason doesn’t regularly direct for (if at all); the stuff is decent for what I saw and a nice change of pace from the other content, but for those into this more romance-oriented porn there's better stuff out there. The dominant site by far is HardX, where you’ll find most of the anal sex, DP, gangbang, blowbang, threesome, MILF, and newer-girl scenes, along with mega-dick IR with Mandingo, and about three-fourths of my downloads came from there (some of my favorites include a gangbang with Lena Paul, a scene with Kendra Lust and Manuel Ferrara, and one where little Piper Perri takes on Mandingo). HardX by itself would be worth a membership, the other four are just icing on the cake.
I subscribed for three months, the first two with the cheaper streaming-only service, and the last paying more for downloads. It worked well, as I built up my favorited collection over the former period so by the latter one I had what I wanted ready to download. There is a download limit, but it’s so high there was no danger of me ever coming close to hitting it, even as I got nearly 100 scenes in that final month. (It’s a good system, and I may try it for sites I join in the future where there are the two tiers.) I definitely recommend this site for fans ethnic, anal, and group sex porn. Yes, there are other sites with far more content, and the HD quality while strong is not quite at Tushy level, for example (though the file sizes, at least, are less bloated); but Mason is a particular talent, one of the best non-storyline, pure-sex porn directors ever. She arguably can get formulaic in her tease intros; but her style is so solid, and her scenes are with such strong technical credits, that I doubt I could ever get bored of her material. Most importantly, she knows how to get the best out of her performers, especially the women. All in all, XEmpire is a hardcore-fucking delight. |

Well over 2 years later and they're still maintaining the limit. I subscibed to Tushy last year when it was in place and for me it wasn't that big of a deal. I like to stream and download movies both, and during the three months I downloaded over 100 scenes. It's better than having no downloads at all, or forcing consumers to pay an extra fee for them, which are increasing trends in the porn world.
