So that's what's good. We balance each 186 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 6: other off. 187 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 8: And I think that's what's good about this because even 188 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 8: the noodles at first, you know, we know we came 189 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 8: up with something good because we was like, you know what, 190 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 8: We've been eating noodles all our lives, but we never 191 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,679 Speaker 8: owned it. And so you know, I'm like, James, we 192 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 8: got to get this out now, and he was like, 193 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 8: you know, we got to find the right place to 194 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 8: make this. You know, all these different things that would 195 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 8: create a business. You gotta trust the process. Our people 196 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 8: don't want to trust the process. But we figured out 197 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,559 Speaker 8: in this in our journey, like James said, way back then, 198 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 8: nobody believed but us. Me and James have been on 199 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 8: little planes, little places, going to these factors and stuff 200 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 8: trying to make this happen. This man really is a genius. 201 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 8: He don't get the problem. We done helped a lot 202 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 8: of people into the game. But now we able to 203 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 8: take our business and we built PJ Foods and taking 204 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 8: this to another level because we got to start thinking 205 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 8: and stop taking companies public. And that's where wives come 206 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 8: in at because in the foundation part, I just think 207 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 8: that what we created, our people are gonna be proud 208 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 8: hundreds of years from now saying look what we've done, 209 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 8: because we got all kind of products and this all 210 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 8: started from potato chips, but expanding our brand and expanding 211 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 8: our minds setting whatever they could do, we could do 212 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 8: it better. But this man know how to make sure 213 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 8: it tastes good. That's the way you say you can 214 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 8: put in a brown. 215 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 6: Paper bag right now, they're gonna buy it if it 216 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 6: tastes They don't. 217 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 7: You know, but you know learning is part of you know, 218 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 7: of course the financial litergy, right you know, like I 219 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 7: know that when we make this product out there and 220 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 7: put it on the shelves, it got to be ten 221 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 7: times better than other products in the marketplace. You know, 222 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 7: we can have Jesus on the back that parduct can 223 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 7: good in the side. They ain't buying it, especially. 224 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 8: Us, because you know, we gonna we gonna criticize it. 225 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 6: Like man I don't like that. Man. 226 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 8: They got to give us a chance, like we got 227 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 8: to get a chance to get this out there. And 228 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 8: so that's what the imbalance is when you talk about 229 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 8: economic empowerment. We don't own nothing because we don't trust 230 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 8: the process with us. We let all these companies grow 231 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 8: and get better, and we don't mind promote marketing them 232 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 8: buying a product, but we don't do it for us. 233 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 8: And I told Jane, we're gonna change that narrative. This 234 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 8: is not only you're gonna see raps next Uncle Pete product. 235 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 8: You're gonna see thousands of people that look like us 236 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 8: that own products and brands because we go and kick 237 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 8: these doors open. 238 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, you know. And it's to add to that peek. 239 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 7: If y'all going to a supermarket, you'll see all these sections. 240 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,839 Speaker 7: You'll see, you know, a Hispanic section which is Goyer, Gore, 241 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 7: here's a three big. 242 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 6: And our company right, all Hispanic products. Right. You'll go 243 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 6: to another section where. 244 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 7: I have that you don't have any one section right, 245 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,199 Speaker 7: And I want to bring us up because this is important, 246 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 7: because this is how we're going to change and really 247 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 7: change the narrative. Because without distribution, you can have the 248 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 7: best product in the world and nobody gets to change 249 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 7: and taste it. 250 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 6: You know, you're not gonna get it's not gonna go anywhere. 251 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 7: Yeah, So our philosophy is to be able to you know, 252 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 7: start with rap snacks, but also build it out with 253 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 7: other products that when people want to buy our stuff 254 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 7: from the culture, they can go through one section in 255 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 7: the store like they're buying you know, any product in 256 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 7: Macy's and they know that they're buying. 257 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 4: You know, that's a valid point. I never thought of 258 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 4: that before because I go to the grocery store in 259 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:24,680 Speaker 4: my neighborhood and it's definitely like the Indian section, Chinese section, 260 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 4: and I've never I've never seen an African American section. 261 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:32,079 Speaker 7: You've because because the thing of it is is that 262 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 7: we've had products out there, but they didn't represent our culture. 263 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 7: Uncle Ben and your mama, right, you know all the 264 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 7: story behind that straight. Yeah, Me and p we talked 265 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 7: about that. We're the ones that pushed that narrative to 266 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 7: get them off the shelves. We wanted. We started that movement. 267 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 7: You started that, Yes, we started that moving like all right, 268 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 7: we educated our people to educate just say. The thing 269 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 7: about it is. 270 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 8: We have to educate us because it's not about the money, 271 00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 8: it's about wisdom, and people don't realize if you don't know, 272 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 8: how can you change the narrative? Because we done burned 273 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 8: down blocks, We done toast stuff up in different cities. 274 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 6: Now we're trying to buy back the blow. 275 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 8: Yeah, we buying them back. But not only we buying 276 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 8: them back. We educated enough to know what to do 277 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 8: when we get the money. And that's something that they 278 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 8: never taught us, because when you look at it, we 279 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 8: just met. We said how do we make real change 280 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 8: and growth economic empowerment because we wanted out to think 281 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 8: about it. After we did all that pick it in 282 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 8: and marching and all this stuff, what else happened different? 283 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 4: So Pete, let me ask you this because I feel 284 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 4: like there's a lot of crossover from like being an 285 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 4: entrepreneur in one area to being entrepreneur in another area. 286 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 4: So everybody knows you had a legendary you know, situation 287 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 4: where I believe it was eighteen eighty five fifteen split 288 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 4: and it was crazy. I think one year y'all put 289 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 4: out let me see, because like I was doing the 290 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 4: notes on this and it was like I couldn't even 291 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 4: I couldn't even believe how album how many albums you 292 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 4: guys actually put out. One year, it was in nineteen 293 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 4: ninety six you put out albums. In nineteen ninety eight 294 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 4: you put out twenty three albums. So that's like two 295 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 4: albums every single month. Yeah, so as that like the 296 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 4: same because I'm seeing a lot of products. 297 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 6: Are you flooding the streets, like. 298 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 8: Just like we flood we flooding the grocery store. So's 299 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 8: were changing the game, because are you watching what we're doing? 300 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 8: Like we said, we started with the chips, Now we 301 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 8: got ten twelve different products that's coming from everywhere, because 302 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 8: when you look at it, these are all products that 303 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 8: we are buying. And so people were scabbed back in 304 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 8: the days when I was putting the music out, saying 305 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 8: you can't put that many records out at a time. 306 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 8: And I'm saying, why not if they like one, they 307 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 8: selling thousands of records every week, I come, it can't 308 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 8: be coming from us. And so we went from selling 309 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 8: ten records to ten thousand to a million records to 310 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 8: one hundred million records independently. And they didn't think we 311 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 8: could do it the same thing. And I look at 312 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 8: me and James is like Malalu King and the people 313 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 8: that came before us. They fought for us, for our 314 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 8: freedom and civil rights. I feel like what me and 315 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 8: James is fighting for and that's just me. We're fighting 316 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 8: for economic empowerment for our people. That's what they're gonna 317 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 8: remember us for. When it's all said and done, they're 318 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 8: gonna say, these are the guys that showed black people 319 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 8: that they could own business, create it and get out 320 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 8: there and make a difference. Because we know this is 321 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 8: all temporary success, but we know we could pass this 322 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 8: down from generation to generations to our kids, our grandkids, 323 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 8: great grandkids. You look at Uncle Ben in answer Maima 324 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 8: that was around for one hundred and thirty years. 325 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 6: Phil. 326 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 8: We finally woke up. They made billions off us, and 327 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 8: we was cool with it. Our culture didn't say that 328 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 8: we supported it. 329 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 6: And we didn't even flinch. 330 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 8: But every time we put out something, it's like, you know, 331 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 8: that's the power of the internet. 332 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 6: Though it's a gift and the curse. 333 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 8: Everybody got something to say, so don't we don't attain 334 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 8: the wealth that they attained because they just only see 335 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 8: this the product with me and James c taking companies, public, 336 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 8: stop everything that's going on right now, Like this is 337 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 8: not it for us.

You know, 350 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 7: people going to check hads and places and check and 351 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 7: casting their checks right. 352 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 6: And where where do we put our money? 353 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 8: And so when I talk about uh disadvantage, I'm talking 354 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 8: about financially disadvantage. And our culture a lot of us 355 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 8: are like that, like we can't even get a second 356 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 8: chance because we're messed up with these big banking systems. 357 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 8: And now we feel like we're going to give our 358 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:18,640 Speaker 8: people a second chance to be able to have bank accounts, 359 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 8: credit cards, but do it to where we educate our 360 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 8: people in our culture. 361 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:28,160 Speaker 10: And it's interesting, you know, So the piggyback off Peak, 362 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:33,959 Speaker 10: the boss Up Foundation, we address these directly, these issues directly. 363 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 10: You look at our community. You know, our community is 364 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 10: not necessarily under resource. We have wealth, we have buying power. 365 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 10: We have one point two trillion dollars in collective buying 366 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 10: power that leave the community at the point of purchase. 367 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 10: Because we don't produce anything, we don't control the retail. 368 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 10: Like James said, out of a thousand stores in Mississippi 369 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 10: that we fill with, only three of them are black owned. 370 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 10: That's insane. So by teaching people to develop products that 371 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 10: covers the part of the equation where we're no longer 372 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 10: consumers and we're keeping the money rotating in the community, 373 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 10: circulating in the community longer so that they can empower 374 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 10: the institutions in the community that's to stay in our lives. 375 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 10: That's what's been the problem.

When we're making rap snacks, so we saw 544 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 2: in the mom and pop stores because I know, we 545 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 2: got to scale it to another level absolutely. 546 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 7: You know, I was in MoMA and see, my whole 547 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 7: philosophy initially with rap Snacks was, you know, I'm gonna 548 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 7: spread the brand all through the Mama pop inner city 549 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 7: stores around the country where I'm from, right, and eventually 550 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 7: when I get hot enough. You know, it's like an artist, 551 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 7: local artists, you get hot enough, they gonna come. They're 552 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 7: gonna come seeking for They're gonna be like, oh yeah something, 553 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 7: They're gonna come looking. 554 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,239 Speaker 6: For you, you know. 555 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 7: And you know there's different levels you know, to you know, 556 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 7: producing and distributing a brand, or particularly distributing the brand, 557 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,200 Speaker 7: because what happens when you go from corner store there's 558 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,919 Speaker 7: no entry level fee. You go to some of these 559 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 7: supermarket chains, they have what they call slotting fees where 560 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 7: for every space that you have, they charge you mightey 561 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:53,200 Speaker 7: be on. 562 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 3: That talk about that people might they might not know 563 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 3: about that. 564 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, So slotting fees, again, it's just a you know, 565 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 7: it's so thinking. It's almost like a mortgage, a rent 566 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 7: that they're paying you for that space. You got to 567 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 7: pay for that space, you know, and if you're if 568 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,359 Speaker 7: you're not ready for that, it really financially can ruin you, 569 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 7: right because your terms may not you know, be enough 570 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,679 Speaker 7: to support you know that, you know that, you know 571 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 7: that situation, you know. And my thing was, you know, 572 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 7: going into the any city of Mama pop stores, the 573 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 7: bottom line is that they love rap snacks. 574 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:25,399 Speaker 6: I ain't. I didn't didn't and then it was and 575 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 6: I didn't have to pay for those space. 576 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,919 Speaker 8: Stores and getting them major change stores. Now you have 577 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,919 Speaker 8: to pay to be on them shelves. And that's the difference. 578 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 8: That's why you don't see a lot of people that 579 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:37,479 Speaker 8: look like us. 580 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 2: So you see it on the bottom mind like I'm 581 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 2: not paying to be in the mom and pop as 582 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 2: opposed to pay to be in the Clovers or something. 583 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 7: Right, yeah, because they what they do is that they 584 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,679 Speaker 7: have what they call a planning ground, right, So the 585 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,400 Speaker 7: playing ground. When you go on to a shelf, you'll 586 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 7: see all You'll see rap snacks, you'll see campbell, soup, 587 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 7: you'll see all these different items and Basically, they're saying, hey, 588 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 7: you got to pay for that space if you are 589 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 7: them that They really saying, hey, we can take you 590 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 7: or leave you now with raps snacks. We ain't paying 591 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 7: for none of that space because we're filling that void 592 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 7: and we're you know, when we first got into Walmart, 593 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 7: the buyers basically she said, James, y'all been very incremental 594 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 7: to our category, meaning that people that came you used 595 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 7: to come in that store, you know. 596 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 8: Just for y'all to know that's watching out there in 597 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:24,400 Speaker 8: the hood. They call that seft pressence. 598 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 6: You ain't gonna solve President, that's what that's what they 599 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 6: called it, the Philly press Hut. 600 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 7: Yeah, but you know the bottom line is that she 601 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 7: was like, hey, now you have people that were coming 602 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 7: to our stores that didn't come before to buy rap snacks. 603 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 7: So the key for them is to find incremental products 604 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 7: that they can have in their shelves. Because they buy 605 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 7: rap snacks while in the store, they might buy some 606 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 7: other products as well, you know, So that's why they 607 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 7: called it incremental business. 608 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 4: Let me let me ask you, guys, p I definitely 609 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 4: want your opinion on this.

I'm just saying, we got to think 632 00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 8: of creating that narrative because that's how we create billionaires. 633 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 8: This guy, what we did, we then took that took 634 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 8: their company to be a billion dollar valuation, Like think 635 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 8: about it. Off a twelve built off a twelve million 636 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 8: dollar investment, which they won't give us. If Specks say 637 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 8: he want to start a clubhouse right now, he's not 638 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 8: going to be able to get twelve million dollars a front, 639 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 8: which he said he can. 640 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 6: But I don't believe. 641 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 8: You know what I'm saying. I don't believe. But I'm 642 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 8: just saying. I'm just saying. 643 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 6: I'm just saying this facts the average back. They even 644 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 6: have a company. 645 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 8: Called Cookout trying to cook out. But let me tell 646 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 8: you something about Cookout. What I think that the narrative 647 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 8: have to change. We got to stop creating black companies. 648 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 8: Like when you look at Raps and we're not a 649 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 8: black company. We make stuff for the human beings. This 650 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 8: is what every culture, the culture so think about it. 651 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 8: But it's black owners. So that's the only thing I'm saying. 652 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 8: Add some diversity in the technology side to where we 653 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 8: own something that we could sell to them.

There's a movement 948 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 4: of financial literacy in our culture right now. It's a snowball. 949 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,040 Speaker 4: A lot of people, especially big corporations, they're still not 950 00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,080 Speaker 4: really aware of what's happening. But the snowball is quickly 951 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:45,759 Speaker 4: becoming an avalanche. And the financial literacy people, the entrepreneurs, 952 00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 4: the investors, they are going to be the next rock stars. 953 00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:51,720 Speaker 4: The President is already said for that. The first financial 954 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,040 Speaker 4: literacy superstar was Donald Trump. If you think about it, 955 00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:57,680 Speaker 4: Mark Cuban is a businessman. He became a celebrity on 956 00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 4: Shark Tank and owning the NBA team and making him 957 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:02,439 Speaker 4: put Gary Vee.

And a lot 960 00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:09,239 Speaker 4: of these corporations aren't paying attention to that. They still 961 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 4: focus too much, in my opinion, on entertainers and rappers. 962 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 4: That's great, but the entrepreneur's career lives in perpetuity. It 963 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:20,759 Speaker 4: can be passed down for generations. I don't care how 964 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:24,240 Speaker 4: fast you you could, you could run, Eventually you're gonna. 965 00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:24,520 Speaker 3: Have to stop. 966 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:29,560 Speaker 8: Well, look look at this, y'all.

We are preparing the next generation. It's 970 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 8: not just about us. And we tell it not only 971 00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:45,160 Speaker 8: entertainers this, but at the least too. 972 00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:46,160 Speaker 6: Because a lot of that. 973 00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:47,800 Speaker 8: I don't care whether we try to do business with 974 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:51,279 Speaker 8: Kawhi Leonard, whoever, all those guys that came up and 975 00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:52,800 Speaker 8: they say, yeah, we want to do business with you, 976 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 8: but then they get caught up with basketball or they 977 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:57,719 Speaker 8: get caught up with football.

So the next 1375 01:05:28,120 --> 01:05:30,919 Speaker 8: step is coming up with me and Jane talking about 1376 01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:34,880 Speaker 8: the electric cars that are affordable for everybody. We need 1377 01:05:34,960 --> 01:05:37,200 Speaker 8: to have them coming from me to have them. So 1378 01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:39,520 Speaker 8: it's starts from there. The supercar is going to turn 1379 01:05:39,600 --> 01:05:40,480 Speaker 8: into something else. 1380 01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:43,200 Speaker 3: So it is boss up. Is it a venture capital firm? 1381 01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:43,840 Speaker 3: It's everything? 1382 01:05:43,880 --> 01:05:48,080 Speaker 7: It sounds so no, So we so let's we're starting 1383 01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:52,120 Speaker 7: a boss up, you know, entrepreneur banking platform. 1384 01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:54,360 Speaker 6: Okay, and on on. 1385 01:05:54,840 --> 01:05:57,640 Speaker 7: On top of that, we're going to down create a fund, 1386 01:05:57,640 --> 01:06:01,880 Speaker 7: one hundred million dollars fund right to invest in companies 1387 01:06:01,960 --> 01:06:04,880 Speaker 7: such as the brother who has the you know, has 1388 01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:05,200 Speaker 7: the car. 1389 01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:05,880 Speaker 6: You know. 1390 01:06:06,080 --> 01:06:08,160 Speaker 7: Then like again, there's a lot of other companies out 1391 01:06:08,160 --> 01:06:11,040 Speaker 7: there that we feel like that we can invest our money. 1392 01:06:11,680 --> 01:06:14,760 Speaker 7: But in addition to that, invest our expertise, you know, 1393 01:06:15,240 --> 01:06:18,240 Speaker 7: our knowledge, and put structure around them to support the 1394 01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:20,080 Speaker 7: mentorship and support. 1395 01:06:19,760 --> 01:06:20,360 Speaker 6: Them that growth. 1396 01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:23,400 Speaker 8: Because you know a lot of this stuff, you know, 1397 01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:25,760 Speaker 8: you have people come up with all these amazing ideas, 1398 01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:27,840 Speaker 8: but it never come to life. I just told y'all 1399 01:06:28,800 --> 01:06:31,600 Speaker 8: the most treasures are in the graveyard. People don't get 1400 01:06:31,640 --> 01:06:34,240 Speaker 8: a chance to finish those So we're saying we're putting 1401 01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:36,920 Speaker 8: together fund to invest in other people ideas and bring 1402 01:06:37,040 --> 01:06:40,600 Speaker 8: some man them ideas the life that's that's that normally 1403 01:06:41,320 --> 01:06:42,320 Speaker 8: you'll never see happen. 1404 01:06:43,040 --> 01:06:45,400 Speaker 10: So one of the most one of the most important 1405 01:06:46,200 --> 01:06:51,240 Speaker 10: things about a fund for me is is that you 1406 01:06:51,320 --> 01:06:54,080 Speaker 10: can you can allow others to come into the fund 1407 01:06:54,520 --> 01:06:56,880 Speaker 10: as LPs or whatever you know. And when you think 1408 01:06:56,920 --> 01:06:59,360 Speaker 10: about how a lot of these companies out here to start, 1409 01:06:59,480 --> 01:07:04,919 Speaker 10: especially Soon Valley, when these kids leave college, the pwis 1410 01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:07,400 Speaker 10: the predominantly white institutions. They leave and they go to 1411 01:07:07,440 --> 01:07:10,240 Speaker 10: Silicon Valley, come up with this great idea, come up 1412 01:07:10,280 --> 01:07:12,680 Speaker 10: with this great company that's say Uber or Lyft, you know, 1413 01:07:12,960 --> 01:07:15,480 Speaker 10: and then they look for VC. They look for VC funding. 1414 01:07:15,680 --> 01:07:19,240 Speaker 10: They go to the tap of VC where the alumni 1415 01:07:19,480 --> 01:07:22,760 Speaker 10: is running that VC. Another student from the same university 1416 01:07:22,960 --> 01:07:28,320 Speaker 10: is running this VCR, right, so then they get this brand. 1417 01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:31,440 Speaker 10: But the part that were missing is that the university 1418 01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:34,680 Speaker 10: that they graduated from is in that fund as an LP, 1419 01:07:34,960 --> 01:07:38,480 Speaker 10: as a limited partner. So now the university is building 1420 01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:41,440 Speaker 10: its endowment off the genius of its students. 1421 01:07:41,960 --> 01:07:42,400 Speaker 6: Right now. 1422 01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:46,800 Speaker 10: Take Rapsnacks, for example, James is out of Cheney Cheney University, right, 1423 01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:49,440 Speaker 10: James should have been able to look back to Cheney 1424 01:07:49,480 --> 01:07:52,080 Speaker 10: when he came up with this idea, said, Yo, I'm 1425 01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:54,640 Speaker 10: looking for funding, went to a VC that Cheney was 1426 01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:57,840 Speaker 10: already vested in. So when Raps Snacks take take off, 1427 01:07:58,400 --> 01:08:02,640 Speaker 10: then Cheney's endowment role. At the same time Puffy with 1428 01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:04,040 Speaker 10: Bad Boy Entertainment. 1429 01:08:04,120 --> 01:08:04,680 Speaker 9: Same thing. 1430 01:08:05,440 --> 01:08:09,200 Speaker 10: The only HBCU. All these graduates from HBCUs that's doing it. 1431 01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:12,200 Speaker 10: Starting companies should be benefiting. 1432 01:08:12,240 --> 01:08:14,919 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what. I'll tell you what. You picked 1433 01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:15,520 Speaker 3: the right Dame. 1434 01:08:16,760 --> 01:08:19,840 Speaker 4: Challenge wives in chaligent now because everything you're saying is 1435 01:08:19,880 --> 01:08:21,960 Speaker 4: completely true. And it's like there's a teacher. There's a 1436 01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:25,160 Speaker 4: professor in Stanford University who's already a billionaire, and he 1437 01:08:25,280 --> 01:08:28,360 Speaker 4: teaches a class and he really only teaches that class 1438 01:08:28,720 --> 01:08:31,760 Speaker 4: to find the next people to invest in. And the 1439 01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:34,880 Speaker 4: people go to that class to pitch him the idea. 1440 01:08:35,240 --> 01:08:39,200 Speaker 4: I think Airbnb. He invested in Airbnb. He invested a 1441 01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:41,240 Speaker 4: bunch of them. It's like a whole pipeline of Stanford 1442 01:08:41,560 --> 01:08:44,439 Speaker 4: graduates that take this guy's class because they know that 1443 01:08:44,479 --> 01:08:46,960 Speaker 4: they might have opportunity to pitch him the business and 1444 01:08:47,040 --> 01:08:48,880 Speaker 4: he's going to invest in it. So it's like they 1445 01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:50,760 Speaker 4: talk about group of economics. 1446 01:08:52,160 --> 01:08:55,000 Speaker 6: The profess Yeah, it's like shark tank. 1447 01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:57,160 Speaker 9: We're just gonna feed off the fish that come through, 1448 01:08:57,600 --> 01:08:58,880 Speaker 9: you know what I'm saying, being off the talent. 1449 01:08:59,080 --> 01:09:01,080 Speaker 6: I want to know what we have to go from us. 1450 01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:03,720 Speaker 6: We know street economics. 1451 01:09:04,240 --> 01:09:08,120 Speaker 8: We got to go from street economics to real economics 1452 01:09:08,760 --> 01:09:12,519 Speaker 8: and entrepreneurship. And that's what we've normally been creating because 1453 01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:14,320 Speaker 8: we don't have the education to go with it. So 1454 01:09:14,880 --> 01:09:16,400 Speaker 8: we are streepreneurs. 1455 01:09:17,240 --> 01:09:17,400 Speaker 6: You know. 1456 01:09:17,720 --> 01:09:21,000 Speaker 8: We got to go from that to entrepreneurship because that's 1457 01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:23,439 Speaker 8: the narrative that has to change. But it comes through 1458 01:09:23,600 --> 01:09:26,559 Speaker 8: education and we have to sit down and have more 1459 01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:29,200 Speaker 8: conversations like this. But we have to give this to 1460 01:09:29,320 --> 01:09:32,400 Speaker 8: the masses so they could see and understand, like we're 1461 01:09:32,479 --> 01:09:34,479 Speaker 8: not perfect, we're not the smartest people in the world, 1462 01:09:34,960 --> 01:09:37,280 Speaker 8: but look at our growth and we're willing to learn 1463 01:09:37,360 --> 01:09:37,920 Speaker 8: and get better. 1464 01:09:38,280 --> 01:09:41,599 Speaker 6: And I think that's the magic gonna happen for our culture. 1465 01:09:41,920 --> 01:09:44,559 Speaker 8: Starting a conversation like this and seeing people that are 1466 01:09:44,640 --> 01:09:49,720 Speaker 8: successful because our culture, we only feed on success, Like 1467 01:09:49,880 --> 01:09:52,800 Speaker 8: you can't tell me nothing if you're not successful, and 1468 01:09:53,160 --> 01:09:55,720 Speaker 8: so now it's gonna take people like us to take 1469 01:09:55,800 --> 01:09:57,679 Speaker 8: the time out, and that's what we're doing. 1470 01:09:57,960 --> 01:09:59,240 Speaker 6: So follow this movement. 1471 01:09:59,320 --> 01:10:01,840 Speaker 8: We got people here that want to give this to you, 1472 01:10:02,200 --> 01:10:04,000 Speaker 8: but you gotta want to learn it.

I'm like, Nah, 1640 01:18:14,960 --> 01:18:16,400 Speaker 8: I'm smarter than that. But I'm from the project. I 1641 01:18:16,400 --> 01:18:18,400 Speaker 8: shouldn't be as smart as y'all think. I am right, 1642 01:18:19,080 --> 01:18:22,479 Speaker 8: I do have education. And so what I learned was 1643 01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:24,160 Speaker 8: they want to make us the face. They want to 1644 01:18:24,200 --> 01:18:27,880 Speaker 8: give us a minority ownership of these companies. So why 1645 01:18:27,880 --> 01:18:30,040 Speaker 8: I'm gonna give you ten million dollars to go be 1646 01:18:30,080 --> 01:18:32,880 Speaker 8: a minority ownership of the NETS and then you go 1647 01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:36,479 Speaker 8: get build this nice facility because you got a minority owner, 1648 01:18:36,920 --> 01:18:40,200 Speaker 8: and then we have no control.

And I'm just saying, 1681 01:20:04,520 --> 01:20:06,519 Speaker 8: I'm just using because he's the biggest in the game. 1682 01:20:06,720 --> 01:20:09,120 Speaker 8: But Lebron really gets it with a lot of these 1683 01:20:09,160 --> 01:20:11,439 Speaker 8: players don't get it. So we got to give him 1684 01:20:11,840 --> 01:20:15,040 Speaker 8: his just due because the team that he had while 1685 01:20:15,040 --> 01:20:18,640 Speaker 8: he playing basketball, he understand business.
