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

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:

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:

I seriously don't know where this "exploit" shyt is coming from.

They're extending an invitation to us to come to a media conference...:mindblown:


You don't have to wear a tag that says your Coli name, you could literally just sit there, soak up the game in silence then leave.

Y'all are acting like I'm leading you into a snake pit.

I need to know their stances on the issues before I commit.

Edit: I see you don't work there.


You have how many posts on here?


You still don't know your audience on here?


Probably could have eased the incredulity with a better approach...



As soon as you said, "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..."



As some others said, it reeks of damage control. Your approach actually sounds corporate as fukk... just a more "relatable" packaged message being relayed by one of the folks who have been designated for primary communications to a certain demographic. :mjpls:

I KNOW this game very well.


You're associated with Viacom... you know how many people on here believe Viacom is the devil? :mjlol:

:ufdup:


But good look for the opportunity. that was big of you...


I still think folks who can go...should go.

Next time I won't let y'all know about shyt.

Let this thread die.

I tried to be a good guy and help y'all out and I'm getting flack for it.


I'm out. See y'all there.

Just don't say I never did anything for y'all.:hubie:

All of these networks pillage sites like these for content. Be careful if they have "contests" for scripts, etc, the fine print always says they are free to use your material without your consent and without giving credit.

Still, this is a good opportunity to network with young folks on the rise

:snoop:


no need for that guilt trip shyt.

Dog you straight... it's a good look... just sayin your approach came off suspect... and you KNOW who you're dealing with on here. 90 percent of these Negroes are delusional and irrational as fukk.

the tone of your message is on some, "Oops" shyt... now if you trusted them, why would you have some distress and be mildly apologetic over them seeing the site if they were your people and you trusted them?

Either way, it's a good gesture. Just sayin... know your audience. You shoulda known this backlash was coming.
