Black Business Month is Popping!
Support your friends and fam cause it's hard out here as an entrepreneur. This week we showcase some amazing events and businesses that are more than happy for you to spend your dollars with them.
A few weeks ago a king blessed our timeline with a series of videos showcasing an amazing no slip bonnet.ย He was pulling cars, lifting bricks, playing tug a war, and doing everything but SLEEPINโ IN THE BONNET lol. Welp a few ladies of twitter bought the bonnet and gave a reviewโฆย
I personally thought we had another pink sauce incident on our hands but the MNJ aint going down that easy. His response: you just have to tie it right lol
What yโall think? Did he get the ladies with some false advertisement? if you want more โ๏ธ
