Stop leaving your royalties on the table.

The Esau lesson: know what you're giving up before you trade away your birthright. Creators (artists, comedians, pastors, influencers) need to understand the difference between leasing rights and selling them.

The Black Box breaks down how creator money actually moves: publishing, royalties, YouTube Content ID, licensing, and the money that goes unclaimed when nobody's looking.

Nagast Publishing is building an app (pre-launch) to guide creators through registering songs with ASCAP, BMI, SoundExchange, and The MLC in one workflow. And the vision: a 24/7 music channel on Roku where independent artists' videos play around the clock, built on a 65/35 creator-first split.

Know your worth. Collect your royalties. Own your distribution.

What could $1 a week build when a whole community moves together?

If Savannah’s 77,410 Black residents each contributed $1 a week, that would total about $4.03 million a year, assuming full participation. Illustrative math, not a promise.

The Savannah Community Fund is a proposal, not an operating charity. The mutual-pledge idea is simple: “If we spend a dollar with you, you spend a dollar with us to build our community up.” Potential pledges with Black-owned Carver State Bank, founded in 1927, and Atlanta’s Citizens Trust Bank, founded in 1921, are proposals, not signed agreements.

Let’s imagine what we can build by keeping resources moving in our community.



What could our community build if we made that dollar a shared commitment?

A shipment can be stopped over one missing document, not the shoes.

I learned that building a footwear brand takes more than a strong design. You need to understand the paperwork, plan your production, and get the right professionals to review your import documents.

In my book, How to Start a Footwear Brand: From Sketch to Shoebox, I share how a pre-order model can help you test demand before committing to a large production run, and what to consider as you move from sketch to shipment.

With NIL and the influencer economy creating new ways to reach an audience, more people are thinking about building a brand of their own. Start smart. Protect your work. Keep your paperwork in order.

The book is $99.98. I only have 20 consultation slots available this month. DM me for the link.

I built a footwear brand from scratch with less than $500. Now I'm giving you the blueprint.

They told me I needed half a million dollars to start a shoe brand.
They lied.

I started with a picture of a shoe that didn't even exist yet. I put it on a pre-order page. In 21 days, I sold $30,000 worth of $40 shoes. I had 500 pairs on my first order. That one decision changed everything.

But the journey was hell. PayPal froze my money. Chase closed my account. I got burned by manufacturers. I had to learn how to navigate customs, patents, and international copyrights the hard way. I had to learn how to talk to suppliers in China and Asia without being the typical rude American.

I spent 10 years figuring out the "Sketch to Shoebox" system.

Now, I'm putting it all in a book. No fluff. No motivational speeches. Just the blueprint.

Here is what you get:
✅ How to launch with a pre-order model (no big capital needed)
✅ How to vet manufacturers and avoid getting scammed
✅ The etiquette of dealing with Asian suppliers (this is crucial)
✅ How to get your shoes through customs with a specialized agent
✅ How I used international attorneys for patents and copyrights for a fraction of U.S. prices
✅ How to handle payment processors and banks that try to shut you down

I’m also opening up a limited number of consultations. I’ll walk you through the process step-by-step and connect you with my vetted international attorneys and suppliers.

With NIL and the influencer economy right now, there has never been a better time to launch your own brand.

The archive is ours. The platform matters. 📚📺

Nagast Entertainment owns and preserves a 5,000-DVD archive representing more than 60 years of Black scholarship, history, culture, and collective memory.

This is bigger than content. Ownership determines what gets protected, what gets taught, what gets streamed, and what our children can access tomorrow.

We honor Professor Griff, Minister of Information for Public Enemy, and the source of this 5,000-DVD archive. His commitment helped place a powerful body of knowledge in our hands. Now, we have a responsibility to preserve it, build on it, and make sure it reaches our people.

If we do not own the archive, we do not control the story. If we do not own the platform, we do not control the future.

The full blog and Roku channel links are in the first comment. Watch. Learn. Share. Support Black-owned media.

What part of our history do you believe must be preserved for the next generation?
