Museums actually do and it is more common than you think. I use to go to MoMa PS1 and it was basically just a giant rave in an art space.
A private artist exhibit whos work includes audience interaction, audio, and live music. Yeah, that happens all the time. Those are some of my favorite exhibits in fact.
Some museums even host live music and artists and serve as music venues. But this is all done in a seperate cafe-theatre room, not unlike this fake "museum," separate from the galleries and exhibits.
People here juelzing for Tariq are talking about a legit museum floor with millions of dollars worth of century old work and paintings, offering the space for DJs and birthday parties for extra income to justify his scams. Imagine a group thots going to the museum on a Saturday night, floor is packed, running around with a cranberry and vodka, taking drunk Instagram photos while grinding up on a 1920 restoration of The Thinker and Glorilla is blasting in the background. No, no museum in their right mind would do that.
Museums throw events that may include live music, food, seating, some spoken word, etc. And plenty of artists integrate music and interaction to their exhibits. But this is strictly organized by the museum and done in a seperate area, with the artifacts and galleries closed off. Legit museums dont double as rental space for parties.
If Tariq wants to open up a pretty little pro-black themed Cafe spot in the hood that hosts music and even pop up exhibits for black artists, while doubling as rent space for the public, that sounds AWESOME and I would give him props for providing something positive even though he was grifting piece of shyt getting there. Except, I live in NYC and we have a shyt load of those in Harlem and Brooklyn.
Presenting this project as a grandiose "museum" of "FBA museum" while soliciting endless donations was a straight up scam. It's not a museum, it was never going to be a museum, its a rent space and a cafe lounge. If Tariq knew how to just be an honest nikka in the black community, spared us the hateful "FBA" anti-black immigrant ideology nonsense he clearly doesnt truly believe in himself, and said he just wants to build an inclusive, black owned lounge in LA, I would not be in this thread. I would be happy for such a thing. But he made the unrealistic promise of a museum. A grand multi-level museum that is part of a political cause. Exclusive to black American history and a monumental middle finger to all "non-FBAs." The was supposedly the reason he needed as much money as possible from his "FBA family." nikkas payed him money he already has just to open up a cheap lounge full of Laminated posters and store bought goods, clearly not trying to alienate anyone of any backgrounds money, no is he trying to make a profound political statement. Just a lounge to make money for Tariq.
It was a scam. And I'm not so much mad that he under delivered on a museum, just the amount of goals that think this grifting c00n is a political and business leader, a genuine activist, believes his every word, and have been pulled into hate and extremism towards OTHER BLACK PEOPLE, when all dude cares about is getting money from an audience that trusts him and living his life. shyt is just sad man.
