The more of these that I come across, the more laughable his entire setup becomes.
He said he is doing everything on that list.He actually did say poetry slams are coming and if they're still popular
Damn some of y’all are MAD
And plenty of museums and art spaces double as event spaces
And which museum does birthday parties ?
Poetry slams, open mic, comedy shows, after school educational programs, birthday parties, and dance performances. He’s not a business man. He’s a business, man.So Tariq now talking about poetry slams and comedy nights?
He going out sad.
Boochie & Taharka did a number on him.
Some brehs lack discernment and game. Anybody in sales knows the top 2 demographics you want to market to are 1) Women and 2) Wealthy Men. Middle class men are frugal and your income will be limited if that's your main customer base.
Tariq just got followers - many of them being women - to give him 1 million to buy a commercial building and people are saying this is not a profitable niche? Then he charged them $150 to get in and meet Vivica A Foxx.
He created his own lineage movement (inspired by ADOS) and can now sell 100 different products under the FBA brand. How is this not smart? Nobody was buying his dating books like that anymore.
And how can he get women to fund his businesses if he stuck with dating and relationships? Black women are not gonna donate to him so he can write The Mack Within over and over again. Especially the women who started rocking with him thanks to Hidden Colors. Despite HC, he still has sistas who despise him due to his Mack Lessons era and what he said about them - even if it was true.
Tariq's history shows he goes from hustle to hustle when something starts to fall off. He reached the ceiling with being a dating coach once he realized he would never have a TV show on VH1 or MTV. The dating niche is oversaturated as well.
Tariq is similar to Roosh V and pivoted to race and politics. He rebranded to Tariq Elite Radio. Flex was getting old, got married and wanted to have more kids. That lifestyle doesn't mix with selling the image of a player. He also said everything that he could on the topic. He had to transition to something else and he saw his next move when Hidden Colors took off in 2011. If The Eugenist took off, he would have probably been a regular film maker.
FnF are young and single. Kevin Samuels was unknown, single and appealed to "high value men". They succeeded because of timing. Their success is thanks to the manosphere exploding during the pandemic. They mastered the algorithm at the right time.
Tariq is a forefather like many others (Dante Nero for example) but by the time the manosphhere really took shape, he was played out and already on his race stuff. Think King Louie being too old and too early in the drill scene, Chief Keef came out after and appealed to the youth a lot more so he took off. Tariq tried to get back in with Izm Radio but dissolved it because it took away time and energy from his primary source of income.
It's delusional to think Tariq would rather work harder for less money as he gets older and has more kids. As his lifestyle gets more expensive, he decides to make less money? You gotta do some mental gymnastics to rationalize that. To learn when to pivot and change careers, check out this article.

I'm actually a long time fan of Tariq and respect his hustle. I'm an OG Mack Lessons listener. Yall the ones that have me rolling acting like he something more than an entertainer lol.Bro you sound pretty obsessed with Tariq lol....Bro wrote a whole chronological time line about Tariq
Nikka maybe because y'all were at a REAL museum. Not some janky baby boomer after spot with one restroom right next to "the bar" which was just a foldable table with liquor bottles sitting on top of it. Tariq is just a cheap ass nikka no matter the project and his flock can't see that even after all these years.My high school prom was in a museum...never heard anyone bytch and complain about how the museum is broke or woke......
What is going to be the lineup for the comedy night?
Who do yall want to see
You sure you want Corey roasting the spotCorey Holcomb

I was shock to see posters of the TR808 and SP1200. It's not even mockup devices. A collection of Esty images doesn't make it a museum. This his horrible. And yeah, even "tethers" invested money into this. People who think this is a museum have never been inside an actual museum. It shows the intellectual level some have.It's right on par with what I was expecting to be honest. He has no artifacts, I think I saw a Roland TR-808 machine and not much else. Other posters have joked about "tour jackets" but I don't even think he has those. With little artifacts the only way to "put butts in the seats" is to sell it as a vibe/lounge/event space and serve drinks. The real interesting part will come in 6-8 months from now when Tariq "moves on" to something else like he usually does, what will become of that space?
