S/O to Ice Cube for sticking to his guns. The fact that he continued to try to secure economic gains for Black people even though a lot of Black people hated on his efforts during the last election cycle is a testament to his leadership and his heart. This is a great get for Cube's organization, and hopefully the first of many. Salute to Cube!

    Good point. Maybe without Jay on board though, Cube doesn't get a meeting with Roger Goodell & the NFL.
    If Jay had a hand in making the connection, then props to him. Maybe Jay can get some more Black projects in position to funded.
    Either way, some Black community projects are going to get some much needed cash. That's a win!

    I guess. You’re right it could be a good thing.

    The N.W.A. rapper further added that his team is “focused on building corporate partnerships with measurable economic growth outcomes for Black communities across the country. We believe this is a giant step in the right direction.”

    I love how he’s not mincing words. He is saying Black with no “and”.

    That's why a lot of Nu-Blacks were mad at Cube when he first announced the CWBA.
    The Black lgbt, Shea Butter Twitter, brown people, etc. wanted Cube to advocate for "people of color" and "Black & brown".
    Ice Cube petitioned specifically for Black Americans and got crucified for it.

    Shea Butter Twitter was killing him for the same thing. Last time I checked, Black women are a part of Black people. I get that sistas want some special recognition, but lets get this paper first. We can argue about it later!

    *Ice Cube mentions and includes Black men, Black women, and Black children in a contract specifically for Black America."

    White liberals, $5 FBAs, the Bussy Brigade, Shea Butter Twitter, and the POC Coalition furiously panic and scream:

    Cube is a straight up stand up kinda guy. His 3 on 3 basketball contest is run so smooth and has never had any drama.
    Facts! The Big 3 has a great tv presentation, some great players, and seems like a fun fan experience. It looks like a big time event.
    I hate that the NBA refused to partner with Cube; it would've been nice to go to some games if they started travelling.

    Cube doesn't need the NBA now, hell he had retired NBA players even playing in it. The whole thing has a good feeling to it. I wish some of the big 10 schools would join up with him doing it. Like the U of M and Michigan State..both schools have indoor courts that would hold many more people than a section of a street. They just re did the floor and added new seating at the U of M.

    Ice Cube's $100M NFL Deal For Black Businesses Exposes How Fake Jay-Z's NFL Partnership Deal Was
    View: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=icaXedwacW8

    Ice Cube recently struck a $100 million partnership deal with the NFL that will send that money straight into Black businesses across America in an effort to close the racial wealth gap. While Jay-Z's NFL deal has yet to produce any tangible changes in the Black community. But has put money in his company's pocket.
