Brehs arguing about everything but the fact that dude passed around the collection plate and still charged y'all for the sermon :mjlol: Had he walked into any bank, the shyts would've been made on a loan that HE would've had to pay back. With interest. But somehow this nikka managed to crowdfund all three films. The nikka took a loan out on Y'ALL and charged interest to view the finished product and nobody can tell me where all this money earned has gone aside from his back pocket. In what WORLD does this happen? :mindblown: Somebody out there doesn't wanna admit it, but has to be sinking in that Tariq has repeatedly gotten over on y'all...



Be Stringer Bell brehs :laff: :laff: :laff:

that's every crowdfunded project.

if he has people that want the HC series enough to donate towards it's development, so be it. i just choose not to donate and purchase the final project.

Some black folk are funny man. Always willing to blindly throw their money to non-black resources like sneakers, phones, clothes, etc and they never question it. But as soon as a black person is trying to do something positive, to get them to support something meaningful that supports them and their causes, they always wanna scream 'foul'. To prove that person is a phony, fraud or whatever.

I'm reading some of these comments like WTF. Not only in this particular thread but even the ones abt Dr. Umar. Some nikkas in here always on some discredit shyt but be the main ones who aint doing shyt for the community or looking out for blk people. Everybody aint on no fake pastor, grab the money cash scam either. If yall don't like how these nikkas wit platforms get down, why dont yall step up and do something instead of typing behind a computer. We need more positive voices and doers than critics.
This.

Black people drop the ball when it comes to money. Way way too petty, and spiteful. I've experienced this first hand.

It doesn't even have to be THEIR money that's getting fvcked. It could be someone else's cash and just because a Black person is in charge of it there's immediately going to be an effort to discredit the one in charge.

The only Black people that Black people trust with their money are clergy/preachers. :ohlawd:

Soooooooo fvcking stupid.

I lost a lot of respect for Tariq behind this sh!t. Didn't ever fvck with Tommy, but Tariq lost points with me.

My only real knock on Tariq can be summed up with two words, part-time militancy. I don't profess to know alot about the brother, but i will say if this is his only money making gig, imo he's not doing enough.

He's a smart guy, he says alot of stuff i agree with so i fukks with him but i don't take him 100% seriously. He appears to be making quite a bit of money off speaking on black empowerment while also doing just enough to make it look good. Now making money is not an inherently bad thing but my concern is that one day, once his personal brand and his company, King Flex Entertainment, is self-sustaining where he no longer needs to niche rally blk ppl to spend money with him, that he then turns away from preaching the knowledge completely and just becomes another blk businessman who merely dabbles in uplifting his ppl...ie a sellout. In my mind when he says stuff like he's not trying to be a blk leader, that kinda tips his hand that that's the direction he is going in.

@The Nigerian...you make a very good point about who blk ppl tend to trust in being preachers/clergy...i'd say Tariq is the same way but instead of preaching in a religious context he uses blk empowerment.

Also i'll say this, it's a fair criticism to look at a man who preaches group economics/blks spending with blks but then goes out and buys all the the most expensive shyt with white brands. The nikka has options, like put that money back into more of his own projects or just keep it in ya pocket for something down the road. He outchere living the life instead tho and it makes smart ppl look at him a little funny. He's not that far off from the Jesse Jackson's and Al Sharpton's of the world...just keep ya eyes open is what i'd say to anybody with half a brain.

Tariq coulda been "sold out " and made waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more money before he even got into "preaching the knowledge" as far as the hidden color series. Tariq starts businesses he's passionate about. He said out his own mouth "i'm not a black leader". Only people criticizing tariq are moist nikkas,c00ns or nikkas whom dont know enough about him to properly judge,so they look at his rising popularity and start hating like suckas. How can anyone hate or have a problem with a self made nikka,and man of his word. Every thing tariq sells from and information standpoint,is helpful to people meaning it's real shyt and not fugazi. What these nikkas mad about? Just haters

Right. Just like backpack nikkas are surprised their favorite underground rappers aint in it just for the love but want to make money too, theyre labeled sellouts.

Like I said a couple pages ago, nobody out here crying abt Koreans and other ethnic groups making money in the hood but as soon as a blk person is making bread with the intention of supplying knowledge and making effort to support our people politically/economically, niggs are up in arms. :snoop:

Bro, he's being judged by his work and this sh!t with Tommy is incredibly revealing.

Also, this whole "I'm not a Black leader" sh!t is incredibly disrespectful to the young Black men that look to this man as a father figure. It's an incredibly dishonorable stance to take. Fvcking sick, when you think about it.

I mainly hate the fact he was cool with Tommy. Other than that (you can check my post history and see I've never bashed him) I can't be mad at the nikka.

Through :lolbron: at the idea of us embracing capitalism is gonna make shyt better, Blacks who was flipping to Republicanism was preaching that card all throughout the 90's-00's...look how that turned out.

This is actually false. Tariq has said for all three films he's had to at least match and exceed the money raised on all levels.
