Listen to me, man. The thought patterns you're caught up in are all messed up. Don't sit there thinking about sharks and goldfish or Wells Fargo. Whether you're in a corporate environment or an entrepreneur the main thing you have to think about is--if they're going to give you money, you're going to have to generate more than that amount of money for them. You have to actually be valuable to them. Figure out a way to be valuable to someone. Even this whole internet $5 thing won't work if someone doesn't see why it's worth it to them. If you want to make money, take your ego out of the equation and figure out why someone should give you money.

Take these videos and little campaign down and find a constructive way forward. All the best.

Point taken.

The members here in The Coli should donate to NatiBoi because I have been contributing to the forum since 2006 with SOHH through current.

I used the skills I learned in the Beat Club Forum to produce audio. The video you all watched was possible because of this community.

Lakers World Order, the LWO, the swag, the dialogue I received here led me to win a radio contest in Los Angeles, earning me $5,000 and a stint on L.A. radio for 8 weeks.

While on Los Angeles radio, I shouted out THE COLI and the posters from LWO.

This is back in 2008.

So I took The Coli, and it led me to a career in sports journalism.

I have interviewed over a couple dozen NBA players and writers.

With my company NatiBoi, I want to expand this type of forum and dialogue to the mainstream.

The Coli LEFT SOHH for the people. Through NatiBoi I want the people to leave ESPN, Disney and Turner, all conglomerates.

So donating to NatiBoi is donating to a man who has been down for 7, and took the coli to radio when he had his 15 minutes.

I HUMBLY ask you to watch and rethink your donation:

I HUMBLY ask you to watch and rethink your donation:

So you want people to donate $30,000 because you post on this forum and you have shouted out the site on radio?
Are you serious? What are you offering that is different than what I get with ESPN, Disney and Turner?

Look why don't you generate some content on your youtube site and see if people like it? If you get a decent number of subscribers than you can maybe ask for donations for the time you are putting in to give people unique content. I'm sure if people see value in what you are offering they will be more likely to support you financially.

Right now all you are doing is e-begging. It's not a good look for you or your company.

What I can do is actually bring the NBA HERE to the Coli.

Disney can't do that.

Do not poo poo me just "shouting out" the forum.

You can not MINIMIZE the FACT that I GOT TWO LAKERS to give up for the LWO, a group strarting from the coli.

So I did that without my "e-begging."

I asked Sekou Smith of NBA TV about Kobe approaching "Larry Holmes" status.

Again, the coli and the NBA.

Don't just "yea well" this shyt.

Caliing DeMarr Darozan "Demarr Swagrozan" during an OFFICIAL NBA interview, these are things I did WITHOUT your money.

So, what if the coli got behind me, no homo, and I was able to take the power of this following BACK to the NBA and get press credentials?

Then you guys could submit questions, I COULD do kick ass content, and bring the NBA to the coli.

Again, just don't "yea well" my Kareem, Kobe, and LeBron interviews.

Don't bemoan the fact that I got two Lakers to give it up to a forum's group.

QUESTION: Do you know any other NBA analyst's who have made players give it up to hip-hop message board SUB-GROUPS?

That DOES make me unique.

You're not a TV or NBA analyst. You're a kid with a cell phone that has a video camera on it. Relax and quit reaching. You ain't shyt yet. The Coli can't get you press passes. Theres plenty of other dudes on the Coli that ACTUALLY interview players for their day jobs. You have a pipe dream and an inflated sense of worth. The more you post, the more I see why they let you go. You have no professionalism to you. You think people owe you something. No one owes you shyt bruh. The sooner you understand that, the better off you will be.

Edit: Oh, and you want us to donate $5 each for the privilege of having you make up nicknames in interviews for players? :russ:

No, I have over a dozen penned articles covering the Clippers for the California Crusader newspaper, and I covered the 2010 & 2011 NBA All-Star games for the California Crusader newspaper having full media access at both. All of the interviews taken place there are officially archived by the NBA.

So why don't you go back to the Cali Crusader and do it the right way instead of talking all this shyt? They have the connections to make your vision come true. You don't have the pull to make it on your own.

Because I no longer want to make other people money, I want my to finally get the majority benefit for my work.

Thus asking for a DONATION. I didn't say in a nikka manner like you keep saying, that I am OWED anything.

I can simply say that when I got 15 minutes, I SHARED MINE with the coli.

I'm not saying the coli owes me, I am asking the coli to share with me.

You stated your Coli resume as a reason for donating bruh cmon.

Unless you have your own money and lots of it to make your vision come true, then you make money for someone else until you get your chips up. Thats how everyone else does it.

Of course I quoted my resume for donating!

Simply coming in and asking for money without having contributed shyt would make me fukk nikka.

But coming in and reminding everyone about the Miami Heat Sweep, People's Radio, and the Paul Pierce interview, all which drew lots of views, threads, and laughs, might make people donate.

Have you heard of People's Radio?
