Black excellence. Uncle Nearest brand hits 100million in sales and the owners purchase a bank in Tennessee!

The liquor is quality. Just about everything they put out has been great so far. I only dislike the Rye one, but that's personal preference since I have never had a Rye that I liked.

It really sucks because their distillery and bar was really coming along. I've been there 3 times and it was a different experience each time.

I see. I guess the best she can do is hawk the hell out of the product to stimulate sales and put her in a better position to renegotiate the loans. If she really spent loan money on some other venture or misstated inventory, she may be fukked.

Or you could just...not (allegedly) commit fraud, avoid bad financial decisions and you'd be fine. We gotta stop this self victim, self hate shyt where a black person fukks up and we assume the white man won. You can't fukk around with a bank loan for a small business, so why would someone fukk around with a 100 MILLION dollar loan lmao. That's on her.

I feel you.


I think the point was that even if everything was on the up and up, she’s still incredibly visible and “all up in the videos”…

OP just meant he doesn’t feel the need for all the attention that comes with being the public face of a brand.


I agree

 

[Still Benefited]

Hopefully she defrauded the bank and still has the money hidden for later pivot. Wont be shedding any tears about a liquor company dying.

I wouldn't want attention from wack social media pages like Shade Room and Spiritual Word that obsess over how much money black people are making (and spread misinformation), sure. But I'd have no issue with my face being out there. It certainly helped this brand. The alleged problem seems that she got too caught up in that shyt, didn't have proper financial literacy and ended up chasing a lifestyle. Including allegedly buying a house in Martha's Vineyard with loan money lmao....like, how do you make that type of fukk up. But if you're obsessed with the image of being successful and hosting dinner parties in your mansion with your friends...well...

All I'm saying is I'm noticing when some of our folks get a good multi-million Idea, there's usually a Trend of clout, "being all up in the videos" , Funny business, and extra shyt that goes on, then they go broke...

I'm saying you won't know who the Fck I am... I'm like this now. I ain't never done a "live", I don't have any videos of me out there " talking to the people", no vacation footage...I'ma be like that when my business is worth a few million.

Damn sure won't be dabbling with the funds, I'm Frugal as Fck as it is ..

You got any business ideas?

 

[StackorStarve]

Yeah they’re fukked. It’s a breach of contract. It’s not the lenders problem that their CFO cooked the books. They’re going to have to eat that and hope they have enough assets available to sell to avoid having the business liquidated.

I had to look up who it was. Looks like some Asian guy. Michael Senzaki. He tanked them

 

[chiefdogg]

This company would have been flush with cash 20-30 years ago & getting 10 figure buyout offers. Alcohol consumption is at an all time low in 2025. Gen Z doesn't party nor fukk hoes, they pop pills and vape

Reminds me of the Craft Beer boom then decline that's happening now.

No rappers mentioned it in their raps?

Man it ain't 2003 when the last time you heard a rapper mention liquor?

 

[O.Red]
