$20 to rent and $25 to buy :mjlol:

like charge $5-$10 to rent at least you are making it seem like you aren't trying to squeeze your fans for as much as you can get out of them
he'd probably make more money in the long run that way as well. a lot of standup comedians started selling their entire set for 5 bucks digitally. they churn out a lot more sales than trying to sell or rent their sets for 20 bucks

i wouldn't buy it, cause i sit back and listen to malcolm x youtube vids or work malcolm has on line for free

but hey if he wants to charge 20 then it's on him.. but he need to realize that he has a majority black audience who will complain about a nickel coming out they pocket

Why does Jordan and other shoe companies charge 200 for shoes that cost less than 20 to make? Because someone will buy it.

Tariq either needs to stop talking about black issue or not charge for stuff he say we needs as a people.
You can't compare Nike a company that just about money with a guy that is looked as a leader for black issue.

People who want Jordans don't complain about the absurd prices because having Jordans is what's important to them, people who believe the knowledge that Tariq drops is important to them will pay the price.

I cant imagine these dudes in here saying "why are Jordans $180 when Sketchers are just $40?" in spite of it being a perfectly valid question.

more bullshyt. people bash the prices of these overpriced jordans all the time.

That was the point breh



Well, what do you consider the Mack Lessons era?
I consider pickup artist as people like that white guy "Mystery" who have you do tricks and shyt to "get women"...

The Mack lessons was more common sense on dealing with women... He had chapters on 7 levels of disrespect... Dealing with strippers ( in fact he said its best to avoid strippers altogether unless you're on some real savage shyt trying to make a buck outta a bytch)..

It shows you don't know what you're talking about, the Mack lessons was never about getting bytches, more so dealing with em

Ops question is simple, and it has nothing to do with c00ning hatimg or not wanting to support black business.

Why is this information, thats so important for our ppl, overpriced when compared to similar products?
Tariq is in demand:yeshrug:People gravitate towards charismatic speakers and will pay a premium whether in time or cash to hear them speak, even if its something they already know. Being able to galvanize people, if even for a moment, is worth money. We dont have to agree woth the prices, but Tariq has a market. He isnt hurting anyone by caking, especially since he doesnt claim to be a black leader. He is a hustler first and foremost, so we should respect that part at least.

Or you can not watch? Same way I won't buy a pair of Nikes if I dont agree to the terms it is being sold to me.

Why are you people so stupid? I will assume you all are trolling.

who the fukk is shaming him lol? all i literally said was it's a bit pricey for some people who would benefit from it.
That's shaming you stupid fukk.

the criticism does hold weight because someone was literally going to purchase his product for himself and his child to learn from the guy but because of the price he didn't do it. how hard is that for you to understand?
That little anecdote doesn't mean that the criticism that he prices his shyt too high holds weight. No matter how much he sold it for there'd be somebody claiming not to be able to afford it. If you're a parent who thinks that Nasheed lecture is essential to raising your kid or you need Nasheed to teach your kid a code of conduct then you've already failed your kid anyway. Sorry, that bullshyt "I was gon buy it for my kid but I ain't got $20" shyt doesn't fly man. If you don't have $20 to spare then you've got much bigger things to worry about than seeing a Nasheed lecture dvd.

These dudes aren't men. It is obvious more and more this site is full of non black trolls that say idiotic things to rile people up. If any of these people are men, someone needs to inform their parents they failed them, and produced a useless human.

Just look at the Tidal thread. Then take a look at the Apple beats thread. I was talking to Black King offline a while back and he asked me about putting up some shyt he's working on in real life on here and I told him not to do.

A lot of black people gotta disease in their brain when it comes to supporting their own. That white man's ice is colder shyt is true as fukk. I've witnessed it personally too many times.

Real shyt breh.

Like I said, this shyt is deep and goes back to them slavery days.

For instance, my homeboy's girl started a little makeup line last year.
She paid Baller Alert, Shade Room and other black girls with huge followers to post pics of her stuff.
Her business is very professional, graphics on point, good customer service and her line looked like makeup you see in stores.
The mistake I think she made was on her business instagram page she had a couple pics of her in regular clothes smiling (no hoe shyt).
So obviously people knew she was the owner.

Under those ad posts and on her gram page, ol' girl got straight clowned and mad hate, man.
Majority of all the negative comments were from our own people saying shyt like:
"the lipstick is cute but it's so expensive." or "do you offer free samples?" or "aint' nobody buying this shyt!" or "MAC makeup is better." or "nobody's going to buy this hoe's makeup."
My homeboy said she got the most hate from our people.
The positive comments were from the white girls.

Last I heard from my boy is she's paying for ads on those white girl's beauty grams with huge followers
and re-doing her marking to target white girls.

Of course people are going comment reckless on the gram/internet regardless
but to have it mostly come from your own people is what made her change her marketing.

Call it what you want but when you're trying to make a living, you have do what you have to do.

(Just telling a story I remember. This is nothing against our queens :whoa:, This goes for both our men and women)

in what world is $20 for renting a lecture not overpriced? it's turning away customers which messes up his bottom line

Are you seriously not understanding what I'm saying my man? Why are you concerning yourself with his bottom line? If you feel like his material is overpriced then just don't buy it. He says the same shyt weekly for free. Let's not fall into the c00n trap tho.
