This is probably the best post a celebrity has put concerning the subject. Arguably Ice Cube is 2nd best.

As influential as hip hop and black culture in general is, its mind boggling that the entire fashion industry isnt run by black folks.

How hard is it really to own the shyt we promote? Why is there a white hand involved in everything we do?

I would have to look at the numbers again but if I remember, right it was like 2 trillion or close to it in spending power.

Cellphone makers and high ends stores would damn near be bankrupt without us. Especially cell phones companies, think the user rate was like 102%.

A whole bunch of other stats I can't remember but he is correct.

Just says if 40% of the 2 trillion say we demand this! Those companies would have to change their ethos overnight!

Black women were blasting him for saying all that while engaged to an Asian and not building his generational wealth with a black family

They’ve tried. Either they fail, or eventually cash out by selling the company to a bigger fashion conglomerate.
