What's the other shoe?Sir...
Seems like more stuff comes out every couple of weeks or so. At this point, I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Something that can't be explained away as a "joke" or brushed aside as "haters pocket watching".
How did they get the "party" part queued up before the "museum" when it was supposed to be a museum from the onset? Too many excuses are being made to justify the bait and switch.
You’ve said the same exact thing after every misstep he has made. You have to be honest and admit that you cannot be objective when it comes to Tariq. Admitting it would be extremely genuine and respectable.
There is a mortgage? Do you have any links to that? I thought he bought it cash, but that was my understanding. If it has a mortgage I'd be disappointed. So, I'd love to see any 'receipts'.
Other museum have events but they also have a museum. Right now we have the events and not the museum. You can’t say “other museums are doing it” because right now we don’t have a museum. It’s a building with google images printed out, put in picture frames and hung on the wall. When he actually produces a museum then you will have a point. Right now it’s an art gallery at best.
Some of you just don't have the patience to be in business or you don't know how museum's operate on a Grassroots level.....and that's fine you can always ask for your donation back. The question still remains: What are YOU Doing to make some of the things you want to see happen?
what's your definition of "credible"?
History & Trap are two vastly different things. You need actual artifacts and a knowledgeable staff.
You're a sharp guy so it's disappointing to see you resort to ad hominem to make a point. You don't know what my knowledge is or is not when it comes to business. The problem is not that it's not happening fast enough, the problem is that something else is happening completely. We went from two story new construction to 1300 sq ft building overnight with no transparency. I was already skeptical when I saw that but I gave him some grace because I wanted to see what he was able to do with it. All the haters called it a cafe and a night club but I still gave him grace. What does Tariq end up doing? He's ends up proving them right and making a nightclub.
That's not true, I was just at the Hard Rock Cafe and they had artifacts all in their museum. They had a mic that Mariah Carey sang on, a dress Aretha Franklin wore. A Trap Museum could be "THEY HISTORY OF TRAP". You can have a Roland TR-808 in there...Dj Toomp's first ASR-10 and all that.
That's all well and good Jay I asked a question that has yet to be answered I apologize to Sovereign for hurting his feelings and anyone else who's feelings are hurt over the HHM I'm over it and will continue to Support the success of the HHM as I support the success of this platform and other Black owned projects. B1✊🏿💯I don't think it's right for us to assume that someone being upset about the progress of the hidden history museum is a sign that they do not not understand business or grassroots organizations. Here's my donations to the HHM:
You can see how the last two were on the 16th and the 18th because the project was just shy of the goal so I chipped in twice. Some people are genuinely upset because they saw the project going in a different direction and instead of their concerns being addressed they were called names and down talked to. The backlash is due to the sheer lack of respect shown to the Black community throughout the duration of the project. Some Black people love to be whipped and mistreated...others don't. We gave him $1.3M collectively but when we have questions for him now we're all broke raggedy bishes that are hating? Come on now. If the community really tolerates that treatment collectively then it deserves to be exploited.
6ZEROS has donated to the African American Cultural Center of Long Beach which is about 30 minutes from LA and this is their programming for the first quarter of 2023:
I've seen the AACCLB stretch $12,000 to put on some really educational exhibits for the community. They had a Black Veterans of WW2 exhibit and they had a lot of great artifacts that you don't get to see. They had uniforms, model airplanes, other regalia, and etc.
That was probably the ultimate goal from the beginning. Money will always be coming in, whether the museum is open or not.
I don’t think anyone’s feelings are hurt I think the thing we need to ensure as brothers is that we are able to have a conversation about topics that are provocative or insight emotion without resorting to logical fallacies.
If y’all ever give me a million dollars and I use it to turn 6ZEROS into a dating site with a small Black chat section I hope and pray y’all come at me with pitchforks.
Just for context I donated to this one too......museums do this sort of thing at times......
it's a valid example. His museum was to simply tell the history of trap from his perspective. I never liked the trap kitchen part tho but i get it. lol. But other exhibits and art pieces he had in there were creatively shown with captions. he worked with other artists to showcase the history of trap music in and he only charged $10-$15.
I never said they didn’t. It makes sense to do throw events to generate cash but the primary operation is a museum.
History History Lounge has neither.
Good question. I just looked it up. "This historic project is presented by Melanoid Nation Foundation, which is a 501c3 non-profit organization based in Los Angeles.."
That's because people are afraid of the backlash associated with speaking "negatively" about Tariq Nasheed. People understand that he will either make a cartoon about you if you disagree or find your public records and embarrass you that way. It's a power dynamic, a control mechanism and a punishment. The power dynamic is the fact that Tariq understands that if another person makes him look weak in the eyes of the community it will lessen his power and influence. This controls the fans to stay in line. The punishment is obvious, public ridicule. He's a business man at the end of the day but your point is valid. No one is above the needs of the collective.
The only way to add on to the existing structure is to build vertically but is the building strong enough to support such a thing. I don't think so. It's part of his real-estate portfolio and there's no telling what he's going to do with it. He'll hold it for as long as people are playing to show up then after that he'll most likely sell it.
Fax. Which makes me think if these people won’t even call out small things like this will they really have the guts to go after White Supremacy? Things that make you go hmmm….
