Everybody gets paid off black people except black people

[dwade206]

We as Black people need to stop being so inclusive with everything

Exactly. Word to Pitbull, Jennifer Lopez, Fat Joe, Kid Rock, Yelawolf, Iggy Azelia, etc.

 

[2stepz_ahead]

And I'm not just talking about the classes, in the first video their was a chink and a cracker kid that had a shitload of YouTube hits and Instagram followers, they get paid off that. A black child dancing better than them won't garner that type of attention

Bro we in the United States....they are the majority....

If blacks wanna claim recognition for the things they create then they have to be the first to the punch and create a legit business from it....

I agree but what happens when a white person opens up the same business do you think they would stay loyal. They loved rock and roll (the black original version) until Elvis came out then they swore up and down that he was the king. But I get what you're saying

Compete.

Make sure your business is better than theirs.

here i come with my bullshit....

bruh why compete....

turn that c on its back and make it a U and undercut them.

let me tell yall niggas something.....

as most of yall know i am a businessman......guess how large my direct competition is ....an 80 thousand person global big pharma company... 80000

i am 1 man..... and i am beating them.

with my diety(God) and my willpower and ingenuity...i am winning when most said i would be crushed like a grape.

you have to asses your competition. its not about competing when they have more resources..you have to be flexible and be willing to undercut. guerilla tactics can work in business too.

i think too many people make starting a business harder than it has to be.

i can see potential in everyone and see an angle in everyone.... most of the time people talk themselves outta business or want to tell the world its black owned...it dont matter. get money, name yourself the engineer. fukk a title, work efficiently and know it wont come overnight and stop looking at the numbers and focus on the freedom and the skill

Most people just don't have the foresight or wisdom to realize this. Like bruh stop being so bitter about white people and pick up some fucking game. Instead of playing into the same ideals that reinforce generational psychological warfare for many lifetimes over. And we're the blind ones? It's their prerogative though. See you on the other side.

you dominican right....

man let me tell you....im not sure where your located but in rhode island....i work at a big company out there. at about 7pm i think like two vans pull up....full of dominicans. they clean up the whole site at night.

but the thing is...they all share a ride, the company has hired a security guy thats Dominican just to speak to them and check IDs and they all stick together...most of them are cool with me. i have a respect for them that i see quite often. i see dominicans in spain, italy and switzerland all helping each other out and sticking with there own. people always ask me why i keep bringing up dominicans...its because i go to the DR alot and see that the education is not good, they are dirt poor and they live in terrible conditions...yet they get enough balls to get to europe an open shop. i cant convince niggas to move to the next state and here are these poor people going half a world away to start a better life. even if its to sell ass to save money to get a business and be able to support there family back home...one will sacrifice for the family. her body worn to shit and shes labelled a whore...but her family is good.

how can you not respect that.

i go to my old hood and chicks selling ass for shoes and pocketbooks and now the young girls like 15 selling ass to get money to dress nice...

shit is fukking sad.

an people wonder why i come down hard on my people....

its because we playing the game wrong thinking we getting ahead...when we moving backwards and losing on an epic scale i dont think people understand

 

[zzombie]

one of the problems with black people is that since we are not strong enough to hold onto any of our cultural creations other people just take them.

@zzombie what do you think makes us that weak to allow that to happen?

Lack of unity and identity which has lead to poverty and a loss sense of self

some niggas think they are Israelite

some think they are moors

some think they should be primarily identified as american or Muslim or christian etc etc etc

if a people cannot agree on a common identity how are they going to resist cultural and physical parasites?? they can't and so the other races and groups in america will continue to steal and suck the life blood out of black americans and black people in general. until we finally come to an understanding of who we are and then choose to stand on that and properly compete with the other races in this nation black will always get taken advantage of

 

[Arya Tsaddiq]

The real issue here is not that they appropriating black culture and getting paid for it. Who's buying? Other like minded white,asian,arab folk who want flavor that isnt natural to their culture. The real flip is being black and putting out bits of ur culture in the emboidment of someone who isnt of your culture. As with Akon and lady gaga, usher and justin beiber. Thats the real flip.



Quite honestly, black people dont see other blacks as upscale quantities. You get a real dope salon in the hood that does high qulitiy work. Black people still see it as a salon in the hood, and if that sista looked at the quality of her work and charged more than others for the quality. Those same women who would go to the rich side of town to a salon and pay those same prices. Would look at that sista like shes crazy and she would go out of buiness based on pure spite.

100.

Local talk radio had a discussion about this topic because someone said the same thing you did in so many words. Like black businesses suffer because people have thever mentality like "if you offer a good or service at the same price as competitors, I'd rather deal with the 'white folks'." Like people automatically expect a discount or something.

It's sad, but it's true.

 

[CapitalB]

No hate but this is America, They saw a lane and took it. But I get what your getting at.

Why do it for free when you can charge

That's what I'm saying bro...I don't think blacks have truly grasped that we live in a capitalist society...

they havent ..and they have a communist mindframe..

i disagree

lil niggas running around wanting to sell wieght

lil niggas running around buying jordans then selling them on ebay

black people are more than aware of capitalism

buy low sell high.

relocate to where the demand is highest

the problem is we think too small an seem afraid to dream big out of some isolation type fear that no one will be cool with us for thinking outside the "whats ok to do when black" experience

i get tired of hearing people say....why would you do that...black people dont do that.

shit sounds stupid. imma do what the fukk i feel

every other culture is not limited but ours. we are limited to what someone our color should do to be cool.

that is why drake beat meek....meek is limited in his content and limited to the street...drake can be a clown cause hes not limited to the street.

My family started migrating here from DR in the 70s. No lie a great chunk of them were self sufficient and went into business for themselves by the end of that decade.

Be it opening an auto dealer, a meat market, restaurants, bodegas, clothes stores they were on it. Some did it together, some individually. Some failed, some succeeded but they all TRIED despite their broken or non existent english.

They knew even then not to depend on whites for work or opportunities and to work on creating opportunity for themselves. They saw that the only color respected here is GREEN and that depending on others for wages or work hours is for the birds in the long run. Now many of them are retired on the island living happily and more importantly FREELY. It wasn't easy but nothing is and the fruits of their labor and sacrifices payed off.

Like a sucker I ignored those principals for years. Fell for the okey doke and got burned. Then after aquiring my one and only debt (a college degree that was in reality a waste of my time) I fucking learned and redid the education. After that my days of being indebted to white people ran schools only to continue working for white people and not myself died then and there.

Bottom line if anybody could come into this country with NOTHING like my relatives did and still build structures on their own terms we ALL can. It takes initiative, a lot of self reflection and awareness, kicking fear in the ass and patience. Which unfortunately are things a lot of people want to avoid. Much to their detriment. It breaks my heart but I always have hope.

The only folks in my fam still living off govt benefits and in section 8 today because they NEED to and not because they are pimping those resources for other gains are the ones who remained naive, narrow minded and gullible and continues to swallow the pill of horseshit the system feeds us. I love them but I'll be damned if that will be me in my 40s or 50s.

u talking about the hustlers..

now i ask u..

how does the community talk about them??

shit.. all u need to do is look to this board..

first thing a person wants to remind me of, even if we talking about the cost of tea in china is that I'm a PimP.. a hustler.. a capitalist..

all the while comfortable in their low wage job..

and why are they comfortable?? cause its a "common" theme.. everyone around them works them same low wage jobs..

COMMUNIST!

 

[CapitalB]

majority of the black community dont even tell they kids to get a great job anymore..

not even good..

they tell them to get a "nice" job. hahahaha

that aint capitalistic..

they raise their kids to go work for someone else..

aint shit capitalistic about it..

 

[jono]

Think outside the box.

Do what's never been done

Or do what others have done but do it better.

 

[King_sorrow]

Think outside the box sure but this isn't the 60's significant capital investment is required to get anything off the ground now

 

[kzzl]

To be fair, twerking wasn't even that popular in the mainstream till recently. Like a couple years ago type recently. Just like niggas wearing tight pants. I still remember when Crystal Clear was like the first time fat chick's started getting major play on the porn scene. When white girls didn't have ass and they'd rather vomit before getting a booty shot.

Shit we do everyday, shit we take for granted, shit we'd shunned becomes popular to these people out of no where. There's probably something all of us do right now that could catch on later and make us rich. Having the foresight to see what that is a mystery in itself.

Sound like my granny

She can't STAND that I wanna make more than 22/hr and start a fam haha

The problem with this line of thinking is that it defines the idea that success can only be achieved through wealth capital. That is not true.

The problem is too many people thinking of how to make Nike and Apple revenue but thinking it futile to try that on their own cause it is. While forgetting that they could still make a couple of million in their lifetime while also attaining the greatest and most valuable assett of all: complete individual freedom.

Again though it all boils down to how you measure success.

 

[Olorun22]

I've seen black women have tweak classes pole dance etc.. the problem isn't that black people aren't going to make a business it's just when why people get ahold to it . It becomes the thing and make more money because it's more of them and they have more money it's pretty simple.

Agree with this.

But ...

You can also make 5X that by putting yourself in demand with a core skill set; and building on that foundation.

There is even opportunity in consulting / running a business of one ... or a few.

I have heard rhetoric on here that condemns ever "working for the man".

Yeah ok...

If you can pull 150, 200, 250+ throughout the prime of your career and provide for your family; Give back to the community ...

I don't see that as a negative.

There are more ways to make a financial future for yourself outside of owning your own company with a business model employing hundreds of people.

 

[twizza 77]

Black People need to think bigger than videos on the net. Im not surprised twerking is monetized as exercise.with strip clubs being popular there should be pole dancing classes and exercise DvDs in every city.

 

[Lefty_]

All these genaralizations, everybody aint slavin it out. The great majority of my inner circle at the least has a decent side hustle, at most, is 100% eat what you kill status. I have nieces and nephews and lil cousins who I tell they shouldnt have to work for nobody, ever, and should start learning how to support themselves early. I'm workin on gettin my wife on self sufficient status. Fuck talkin about what aint, and lets figure out what can be.

A virus dont complain about whats goin on in the rest of your body, it just spreads until it sieze shit up. Spread the hustler's mentality until we all free, everybody aint built for it, but many are.

i think the word hustle has a negative connotation in our community.

its like when you hear it....it usually comes from someone trying to get money fast without the work. i think we should replaced it with "hard work"

i knew a hustler who would not get a job but took the time to break into abandoned houses and strip all the copper pipping out. he hustled but dont wanna work

 

[Lefty_]

Nigga that aint no hustler, that's a geeker.
