I don't think you guys are reading the OP.


They're not thinking of BUYING the coli, they just want to network with the people that post here who might be interested in getting their foot in the door in media.


Next time I won't extend any invitation, cuz a lot of brehs seem to be upset for whatever reason.
It's nice to network. It's also nice to know your audience. It's RSVP for New York, but doesn't take into account that a good portion of the non-cac contributors here are not in the United States, let alone the East Coast.

It's a nice opportunity, but it's a tack on (afterthought) opportunity, not a targeted one.

Having said that, if a breh or brehette is in the area -- GO. And create a livestream/aftermath thread for the rest of us.

No offense but most of you are practically some of the dumbest guys in existence with all due respect...
If @Y2Dre is giving you a shot at content creation, take it....I've lurked at most forums and no one has as much stickiness(look it up) as this one does.
Most of you literally rewrite the entire social language landscape and move culture without even knowing it...
If I were next to you guys I'll slap you silly. For God's sake, you're probably less than 15% of the population and yet everyone watches your EVERY MOVE.

Meet up
Learn the business (licensing rights etc)
Set up your own
Mentor

It's hard work but it's worth it...

So, long story short my industry friends (All of them are Black) were coming back to my spot and one of them asked to use my MacBook (which was open on TLR).


Next thing I know she's reading the forum and cracking up. Described the site as a "hidden treasure trove of Black media content"

Rookie mistake I know, but it wound up helping all of us out cuz now they're offering Black Coli media content creators an opportunity next week in NYC to build. (it's not just open to Coli brehs obviously but they wanted to extend the opportunity to yall)

Not a lot of people know about this, it's almost a fake secret conference for Black media creators at the Viacom headquarters.

Make no mistake, if you have over 20k daps you are a content creator, people fukk with your POV and it's time you monetize it.

I know there's a lot of brehs with podcasts/YouTube channels etc. that could really benefit from this

RSVP link if you're interested in coming through. (I'll be there too if y'all wanna build)

The Culture Collab - Splash

Follow the IG account (these are my homegirls so don't violate. :ufdup:)



Tag any brehs that do media, this is a potentially a big opportunity for us to make money doing shyt we do on the coli for free. :yeshrug:





*In b4 nikkas say Viacom is white owned so none of this matters. :troll:

Stay home while the rest of us network with young Black millennials.:manny:


I'm not in NY but if they got connects in LA they wanna reach out to, I am down to meet up and talk.


:salute:

T.O.
You do realize there is a podcast where a cac literally just reads the coli and makes money off it right?

You dap fishing so I'm not really taking you too seriously, but if you DONT wanna make extra bread or learn to make money off your online persona/ POV that's completely up to you.

I really don't care breh.

You're acting like you're somehow hurting ME by YOU turning down an opportunity to make money.:rudy:


Which podcast ?

I'll think about coming through after work. I don't create content, but I've worked in digital media.

Everywhere...You never there.
Hmm, I just don't trust these people, I don't know whose side they're on: Black empowerment or a minority coalition?

Shea Butter/Black feminism/intersectionAlity or Black empowerment??

Black male emasculinity or strong black patriarchy.

Most of these young millennial aren't about black advancement and promoting a black-only agenda. Just keeping it buck.

this is why people are shyttin on OP...


I've worked in large corporate companies... corporate primarily exploits... rarely empowers.


to think anything else would be silly. :mjlol:



Some of y'all nearby coli folks should go just to see what's what, tho. :sas2:
