After 2 years of stalling, Dream and Hustle is finally making the move to the new format and direction. During the move, this blog will go down temporarily but will come back up temporarily but the next statement is important. This entire blog is going away and making room for the new Dream and Hustle format. Do not bother trying to chase down Dream and Hustle old articles because that is stupid – this blog is archived on the WayBackMachine all the way to 2006 so don’t be stupid. What we are doing is getting bigger and better for you, stop trying to stick to the same and the past.
HustleSpace, will be part of the Dream and Hustle family as I decided it is not a good fit for Swagg-Scientific. But HustleSpace will be paid digital access as always promised and for researching urban opportunities and urban markets worldwide. In addition, Dream and Hustle will continue to represent for brothas and sistas but I’m going to be de-emphasis all the content that focus on the worthless brothas. Instead, I will have a special section that is a scorecard that allow black folks to see who is full of crap and who is worth following. You will see for example people like Dr. Boyce Watkins, Michael Baisden and Tariq Nasheed with a DON’T RECOMMEND from us with the reason why and you will see people like Michelle Singletary and 100 Black Men as RECOMMEND for the value they produce and you will see Roland Martin, Dr. Claud Anderson and National Urban League as CAUTION as they do not produce the level of satisfactory value needed. This is the best way to deal with the fake cats and weak brothas is to educate the entire black community on who is really who up in this black empowerment and black upliftment stuff.
Dream and Hustle if I can get things configured right will have a podcast, video and articles as well as downloads such as white papers and quick notes for brothas and sistas. The short stories some will be free and some are paid (we attempted this years ago with a project called LifeRoads Publishing). You will also see more interaction on social media and to be honest, we may abandon the WordPress architecture altogether to create our own that is more tuned to mass media distribution versus the outdated WordPress MySQL architecture based on content. But the new format leads to another breakthrough – our content will be based on the blockchain as media objects and use the same format we are offering to others, putting skin in the game. I promise you and I’m looking at the new Dream and Hustle that you will be excited, not realizing I already audio narrated many of the popular blog articles already.
Many people may not have heard the news but the Global Urban Collective is coming back but my global team is handling the operation by moving to Medium and recruiting urbanists around the world to contribute content. I believe the original Global Urban Collective secret FB may be trying to keep going but that is not a concern as we are not going to be a FB group and at the end of the day, when you want to fuck with someone of my caliber, you have to be better and go harder than me in this STEM stuff. And if you think you can get to the level you are better and harder than me in this STEM stuff, then our people will benefit from your awesome and talent and capabilities and that’s the battle I’m still waiting on honestly. So if Global Urban Collective do well on Medium and they still in that FB secret group being basic after all these months, darkness always come to light.
I will keep you guys up to date but as I mentioned before – I’m actually publishing some stuff on Medium as well and got more articles to put out there. Change has to happen so I can better position Dream and Hustle for the rise of the Afro-Tech movement that is coming fast and furious. I mean, I was going to write an article on how to create a local fiscalism transaction system using fingerprint reader and 6-digit pin to run an access-based business but that’s the problem – the Afro-Tech over here in my backyard is innovating every 3 days with new stuff, like the Food Truck silent disco festival we are going to have here in Atlanta and the QR code scavenger hunt for sista-owned business using the PVC cards on Kossier or the banned Brooklyn Queen and the Blockchain story where Bria help created a new blockchain-based black fraternity/sorority and how it was done – see, damn I talk too much and too much is going on. Let me get to packing and will see you guys on the other side.
