Hello everyone I wish you all happiness, success and good health in the new year!!! No matter what!
This will be the worst year in decades demleaders are starting stuff that’ll backfire watch from home it wont be safe out there plus we’ll probably all be locked down soon as well
This is the actual change everyone needs. To be financially educated and given opportunity to change the system. Let’s keep building business and educate the future gen.
Protesting to the politicians, who dont care, for a change has been useless. Great job Killer Mike!
@Thyalwaysseek Is Red Bull ageist because their key demo is 20s? The drink is still available to everyone regardless of their target marketing.
Mike saw fit to bring platform to the community that he understands well. It’s about race AND it’s about bringing support to the community he loves. Also the platform is still open banking to everyone, he just specified the target demo (Latino, Black, and Middleclass White). I dont understand your hate.
@Thyalwaysseek
You clearly didn’t pay attention to or comprehend any of what he intends for his project to achieve or who he intends for it to help.
I’m guessing both.
@S H What a stupid analogy, Red Bull do not target one race. They do not say, this drink is mainly for white people but black people and latinos can have it too if they want to.
@S H There is no hate to understand, I am merely addressing that by making it about race he is causing more division.
@Thyalwaysseek 0:58 in the interview, he literally fucking said black latino and middle class white. Tell me how that’s one race. You are selectively editing his message to support your limited philosophy.
About time revive Oklahoma black market my friend HISTORY
Cool, and i respect that good on you Killer Mike and all future entrepreneurs!
Kind of sounds like another bank.
That sounds like white privilege!
How can any Bank do anything much different from any other Bank since it’s the government that makes the rules involving money. Unless the bank is going to hand out free money from their own pocket.
Kind of sounds like he’s just exploiting the BLM movement.
@Andrew they will not discriminate against qualifying African American, Latino and white working class communities who qualify for a mortgage or business loan. They will also offer services that help the black community directly such as financial literacy, and credit rebuilding programs.
Making changes from inside the system is the way to go. Much success to all!!
Sounds just like any other bank except advertising on identity politics.
@felicia walker more than that
@🍯 blood honey I was being generous.
@felicia walker Rothschild Goldman Sachs look closer Felicia dear
@Professor Moriarty word-. that is one very well kept secret
@felicia walker just look at wikipedia early life section most of Biden and Trumps cabinet from that small group

This man is legendary
Never heard of him, but I wish him luck. I wish ANYONE luck because most business owners see nothing but expensive dark clouds in the future
@K MB look up, “RunTheJewels Ooh la la” and click on the one where he looks like Google Chrome. That is a good representation of Killer Mike and El-P.
@K MB Killer Mike does for Black People what others only talk about doing!
He is a very intelligent business man, a talented rapper, and a genuine good hearted person.
He loves all people, but strives to help the black community, have resources needed, to better themselves.
Something he has preached for a long time.
Killer Mike- If black folk can’t access “Capital”, they can’t build “Wealth”. (Outcome= Greenwood Bank) 💪😎
