There are a few of them out there on YouTube. Why can't he use his platform on Breakfast Club to give them some shine? At least that will expose them to a different demographic and wider audience.



Good point. The breakfast will interview folks who they are comfortable with. They had the minister on there, twice which is cool. But they need to have sistahs like Sharazard Ali or Nikki Giovanni

Theyre all saying the EXACT same stuff. That's not on the writing, they're just playing to their audience who feels disenfranchised and "think" they have a voice in these folks.

She's "pretty" and recycles talking points. Seriously just listen and watch she's a prop.

There is NO reason we couldn't do the same With one of ours because like I said, bells and whistle don't mean what they used to presentation wise.

Never in history has our "platform" matched our counterparts money wise, and its foolish to think that advertising dollars and corporate sponsorship would invest in a message that will have very little return due to its small market reach.....

Like you said, it can be done with a miniscule of the same budget and the right voice\face\persona......

Tariq, Sa Neter, Umar, has shown that this business model is indeed scalable...

We're gonna have to agree to disagree and walk away man. Marketing is not what you are talking like it is in 2016

The phone is the TV now, tv is the radio. It shapes how people think and react for good or for worse


Pretty much, the model he is talking about is for 40 and up and for those whom have their minds made up already.....

You want the 30 and under crowd...... You want to cultivate as oppose to perpetuating if that makes sense...

If you see nothing wrong with us not having any ownership or leverage in the media that we consume (or anything for that matter) and think it's "impossible" to make a turn around in the age where you can blast a message worldwide thru your mobile device and even get money and empower yourself

Then carry on bro, no hard feelings

it isn't really a race thing though....liberal/left wing talk shows never do a killing regardless of whether the host is black/white male or female.

Rachel Maddow, Chris Matthews and Bill Maher is even small potatoes with the backing.

The right wing ones...like O'Rielly, Hannity and Rush Limbaugh kill it with their audience.

I think it's a "silent majority" thing.
