One thing they can't do though is force us to support them. Listen to the way that some of these people talk, they think we owe them something and are pissed that we don't bow down. Then you have people out here who look like us, who might be cosplaying like tethers would, trying to shame us. I don't know one Latino who offered me or anyone in my family a lane to go into business with them to open a grocery store. You can look at Fat Joe and point out that he's doing a podcast with Jada, but Joey's clinging on to relevancy after pushing the line. Why didn't he go do a podcast with Math Hoffa or Busta Rhymes? He didn't want to be on that side, because that represents the outside. Last time I checked, he humbled himself quite a bit didn't he?
God don't love ugly, look at what happened to him:
He tried to lie about Latino's contribution to Hip-Hop in August 2022, then turned and sued BDO USA, a company founded by immigrants in September 2022. They were accused of brazenly stealing millions from this dude. That wasn't FBA.
He said what he said about FBA in 2024, that would be his last time hosting the BET Hip Hop Awards, and he essentially killed the award show. They wanted to bring in someone from the outside on a discount and saw the interest dwindle like crazy, but if we can't identify with it, we're out. We don't have to watch and support it.
Look at what happened with Fat Joe's ex-hypeman and the accusations. I don't know how true it is that Joey was laying up with 15 and 16 year old girls, but he was coming at us. He's had all types of stuff come down on him, a number of things were from us. Big Pun's family, Cuban Link coming at him. He said this man left them in a bullet storm.
Look at what happened with Essence Fest, tethers were talking all types of shit about FBA, and wanted us to keep that running off our support. They owe money after turning it into Immigrant Fest. Any smart businessman would know that it's a horrible idea to fix something that isn't broken. Do a Fest for your people afterwards on a smaller scale if the turn out won't be as strong and get some of the residuals from that. It would trickle down and the immigrants who are loud and proud when it comes to us and ours can put their money where their mouth is. Tethers are good at talking, but won't build shit in their homeland, and won't support shit to either in their homeland either. Regardless, we can go a different route when it comes to a festival.
The Brown Sugar Festival in Clewiston, FL was something we went to growing up. We just have to make sure that while we open the door for others to enjoy our festivals and support them if they choose to, it's never a wise thing to start giving up spots for people to start filling slots because that's when they try to flip what we've created.
This happens a lot of the time because they want representation and want to see more of themselves in our events, but the problem is its OUR event. They have the ability to go and do their own, but they usually want to try and funnel us and our money into their stuff. That's not our job, and that's where you see a lot of this anger coming from Non-FBA people about this half time show shit.
Our people have bigger fish to fry and a bitch cannot and will not make us sit down and watch something we have zero interest in because they feel like we need to support as non-White people.
What race is listed on Bad Bunny's license while they try to play that game?
They want us to be their audience, their customers. Meanwhile, we're focused on getting to this money. I'd just say don't go blowing it, stack your bread and invest in things that will grow even more of it for you. Stay safe out here, don't let someone convince you that you're better off not carrying something, and stay on code. Keep praying the worst on our enemies, and pray that their weapons have no effect on us, pray for our health, pray for our success, pray for the betterment of our lineage as I continue to do daily. This only takes a shot at the opps who want to affect us in a negative way. Everybody else, just leave us be and stay out of our way or you know what it is, that's a choice to insert yourself.
Look at what happened during the 19 virus and people started avoiding Asian restaurants, they tried to force people into those restaurants. I believe Jason Black covered that at the time. They don't pour into our businesses on GP, so keep this in mind.
We're seen as competition to a number of these people. Look at how a number of them lost it over Black Panther and them wanting representation. Acting like a desperate hoe trying to get attention, but when they got Blue Beetle, they didn't get that energy from us. We didn't care, and they didn't either because it was the lowest grossing film in DC Extended Universe. They want us to make their shit hot.
Look at how they got caught in the Los Angeles City Council, those weren't allies, those are opps. They're no different than the Mexican Mafia who firebombed Black people in Ramona Gardens out there in Los Angeles to get Black people out of the neighborhood. Might be tied to them too. These eight anti-Black Mexicans will be release between 2026 and 2037, and they should be deported soon after for their terroristic hate crime.
I continue to call for Tithes to be shifted away from these slimy pastors and into FBA businesses and endeavors. We will see and feel in a positive way. A number of people are finally catching on, and I can't wait to see when this happens. Speaking of slimy, I'm lumping Dr. Umar into this too. This clown is STILL trying to get us to split up our reparations with these other people.
This damn fraud has already taken advantage of a number of people, he's everywhere else except working on that school. He's never been married, has kids out of wedlock, but he's always preaching and begging like these damn pastors.
This dude has abuse allegations, allegations of misconduct, got labeled a conman and pimping "culture" for personal gain, and the list goes on. Now he's trying to create a group to RIVAL our FBA lineage because the Foundational part has gained a lot of traction. Why? It's usually the same with him, he's trying to get money out of someone, but we don't owe him our attention and money either.

Just last year a woman with a special needs child, said he took advantage of her and got her to take care of mom. I won't say that intentional demonization isn't real, but do your research on this dude. Listen to the way he talks and don't line yourself up to get played by people like him either. We don't owe him, he owes his children and he owes the investors of that school. He wants our reparations dumped on non-FBA and where is the crowd of non-FBA to help him finish that school? If he's entitled to any reparations, he can split his up just like anyone else who feels the same way he does.
