i just did after watching this interview too hahaoh shyt.. thanks for letting me know
lol.. everybody should respect Stoute. I actually applied to work at Translation last year..lol
at u thinking opportunism isn't one of the main foundations of marketingWait...hold up.
Who said I didn't research dude?
He's one of the biggest names IN music/celebrity entertainment.
Where'd you get that from???
Look at his successes.
He takes black entertainers...gets brands...then gets brands to give those people money.
Thats it?
Word? Now you get to talk about "tanning" and other general buzzwords?
Dude's a bullshytter and big on large ideas that smart-dumbs can get inspired by.
He seemed to turn legit recently with his own firm, but he can only leverage "relationships" but so much in the future. Dude isn't a marketer...he's an opportunist.
I'm glad Curtis mentioned his parents are immigrants. It goes back to what I said before about the people who built this country being represented by those who didn't. What appears to be progress by the descendants of slaves really isn't. I wonder how much of his money stays in the hood and how much gets sent back to the old country?
Steve came off as a psychopath in the video but it's been proven that those types are some of the best businessman. I'm not for re-building the tower of babel but I can understand how those who want a new world order can see how hip hop has united the world would think this is a good thing.
I damn sure don't think people like Jay and Kanye are off limits from criticism and Nas damn sure did back peddle and sell out to Hennessy! Cool interview but he looks thirsty in trying to beef with 50 to promote his book/documentary and is he gay or what? He seems to sport pink alot.
With all the artists them dudes had dealings with u point out and put the blame on Nas?..lol..steve stout is the catalyst, and business admin.
that gave the cred of the emcee up to the highest bidder in nas.
which fully compromised the culture.
once, nas, puffy and stout continued to destroy the culture's protection mechanism.
fukk stout, nas and puff eternally.
when, you look back on why kids don't have shyt,....
stout, nas and puff are the very reason for that.
art barr
With all the artists them dudes had dealings with u point out and put the blame on Nas?..lol..
It's helping bring money to Black folks. And there's no harm in either one.
