I wouldn't be surprised if it was tap water and the only money he spent on the product was the bottle, label, and t-shirts. It was about everything but the water. And after reading his fuze interview it was obvious he was tryingto sell it to people under the influence who wouldn't care to pay $5 for club water.
No, The Nigerian ripped off Molly Water. Hence the reason he left the E out of his version of it. He didn't even get it trademarked.
It was established in a previous thread that this was the case and rather than explain himself, The Nigerian acted like he was going to get his big bad legal squad on the case and made it seem like they ripped him off.. Whereas after the fact he just continued to dodge basic questions, not even address the trademark or the legitimacy of his product, and just continued to lead people on and lie about it.
He was faking the funk from the getgo. The loft, the countless club and party pictures, buying facebook likes, the fuze TV interview, the average girls, he was criticizing people for trying to fake an image of success many times but he did the exact same thing. He acted like a boss when he was actually an entry level trainee. He acted like he was the best businessman in the world yet he refused to take any of our advice and ignored it completely. This thread is a great tool on how NOT to operate a business in the public sphere.
I believed in that dude and supported him as a fellow Nigerian, but seriously...f*ck that dude. He just continued to contribute to that horrible stereotype that us Nigerians are scammers and always have ulterior (sp) motives with money. I know how hard it is to promote my brand/line when people haven't seen a picture of the product or know what it looks like and it gets even more trying knowing that there are other people doing the EXACT SAME THING with success cause they aren't me and can be seen with more trust. But that's part of the game, you have to work to build people's trust. He just wanted the fame and success and the girls and the money without putting in any work at all.
This is the last post I'll make in this thread (knock on wood). I'm not hating on The Nigerian, but he disappointed me with this BS.
