Kandi Burruss’ Boutique Failing Due To Bad Economy?

Sandra Rose February 23, 2010

It looks like the bad economy has claimed yet another casualty. According to industry insiders, TAGS Boutique, owned by Real Housewives of Atlanta cast member Kandi Burruss and her business partner Hortense Chin, will be closing its doors for good soon.

Friends say sales of affordable clothing and accessories at TAGS aren’t brisk enough to keep the doors open. This, despite the fact that Kandi Burrus, who is listed as the CEO on the business license, is supposedly the most popular cast member on Real Housewives of Atlanta.

It seems Kandi’s popularity isn’t translating to sales at the cash register in her shop or in the record stores. It probably wouldn’t matter even if her fans wanted to support her. Customers complain that TAGS is rarely open during business hours and phone calls to the boutique routinely go unanswered.

Is this any way to run a business?

One frustrated customer even took to her Twitter account to inquire what was going on:

TAGS, which opened late last year, is located at 4500 West Village Place in Smyrna, Georgia. When I spoke by phone to Kandi Burrus a week before the Grand Opening, she didn’t know the phone number or the address to the shop so I could post the info for my readers.

What business woman doesn’t know the phone number and address to her own business? Mind you, TAGS was already open for business a month before the Grand Opening.

In fact, Kandi had to call her business partner to get the phone number and address to the store because the info wasn’t stored in her cell phone. Right then I had my suspicions that the business wouldn’t do well.

I also hear through the grapevine that Kandi’s business partner isn’t too thrilled with Kandi who spends more time on the social networking site Twitter.com promoting her Internet video stream talk show than she does promoting the shop.

Wow, I thought a poster on here had shopped there before? Maybe she was just the spokesperson and not really invested in the business…..

Morning

I went to the shop to get the scarf she on in these pics but they were sold out! I was I LUV me a fly scarf

Was looking forward to picking up some pieces for Spring.

Betta luck next time Kandi

Good morning all! I guess Kandi doesn’t have the business mind we thought she had.

That’s how these things go. Here today, gone tomorrow, Has anyone been by the shop recently?

I think she has stock in Twitter.com the way she’s stays on it 24/7.

Look at you Sandra, being messy early in the morning. I love it!

perhaps Kandi has been swept up by the limelight. she better learn from fantasia and get over it … FAST!
shunda

Haha! Let me google what that stock is going for these days. She does stay on Twitter a lot.
LaTechGrad02

Well maybe she’ll send a tweet about the Going out of Business sale to her followers?
Daisy

Sandra I planned on going to her job next mth after I got my bonus from work to pick up some pieces for Spring. There is another lil boutique in that plaza guess I will have to go there instead.

Hey Shunda *waves* Did you find a new gig?
http://twitter.com/Danielle_1984 Danielle84

Well that is horrible. Hopefully they can turn this around and remain open. I hate to see a black owned business shut its doors so soon.
http://twitter.com/sherita78 mizzdallas

its doesnt matter to me her shop is not in dallas!
Ms.kaylamomma

Poor Kandi, first she loses her finace’ and now she loses her business. Is Twitter that addictive that you can’t stay off of it to take care of your business? Do they have a Twitter Anonymous like they have AA?

Kandi: *stands up*, “Hi, I’m Kandi and I’m addicted to Twitter”

TA: “Hi Kandi!”

Damn shame…

Good morning all.
Ms.kaylamomma

finace’ = fiance’, sorry for the typo
http://charactercorner.blogspot.com attorneymom

Yo Kandi stick to producing.

How are you gonna have a store without store hours? Blank stare.
Soulstar81

Good morning everyone!

Sorry to hear her shop is closing. Maybe she will have better luck with her next endeavor.

Like the Nail Bar, just a cover up for dope money…

Why doesn’t she have a twitter for the store or something?

I’m having a hair crisis, today.
mirsmommy

Damn Kandi. Do you have too many things going on at once????

I also hate to hear about black owned businesses closing.
http://charactercorner.blogspot.com attorneymom

I had to unfollow Kandi on twitter because she kept tweeting Rasheeda and Diamond as if they didn’t live in the same state and had each other’s cell phone numbers. WTH? Blank stare.

Tia Mowry (from The Game and Sister Sister fame) does stupid stuff like that. Do celebs really think that people want to read tweets to other celebs all the time? Another blank stare. Wouldn’t it make more sense to tweet your “fan” – the shareholders of your career?

The celebs need to take a lesson on how to appropriately use twitter from Sandra’s friend, Monica.
nika405

@ RTB I had to cut mine super short because bleaching it broke off the front. Did you find a new stylist yet?
EssenceofU

Off Topic: Fantasia For Real is the biz! Sandra why don’t you ever post on that showz? ‘Tasia is mega-talented, that song she did last night had me rockin’ in my bed! And I’m with her about not wanting to be a robot on stage, do you ‘Tasia and standout from all the other cookie-cutter acts.
OutsidetheBox

@Sandy, Kandi gave you a “shout out” on TJMS this morn…she said she dont know where you get your stories from… …said you make sh*t up…
shunda

Hey Daisy! I am doing a web analyst internship hopefully it will turn into full time. I will be done with my MBA in December.
LaTechGrad02

@Outside, wow. Well I guess Kandi won’t be participating in a live chat now
OutsidetheBox

LOL

You know how they do the lil entertainment report…dude said that Kandi was dispelling the rumor that she has been behaving like a diva in connection with the RHOA…he said, “Kandi says this certain blogger in question is known for … ”

Too messy. Lubs it.
Daisy

@Shunda thats good I will be finished with school next mth

@Essence I Tasia NC STAND UP!! I love her stage presence. I feel Fannie is an artist you either love or hate as far as her singing/stage presence goes. I love her taking it to church style others feels all she does is HOLLA (she does that as well but I love it).
gypsyeyes

Good morning all!!
free

celebrity restaurants and boutiques are overrated.
pointhimout

you have to market a product or service in demand. i’m supportive of any business venture, but if i were an avid investor, you couldn’t come to me with a clothing store and get my money. sometimes having a famous spokesperson can work more against your store than working for the store.

in any event, i dont think it was a good idea to have a clothing store. take this stuff online, and there goes the overhead of monthly rent and utilities. because she spends so much time on line, it would have a better chance of her sending out emails and coming up with a great e-marketing campaign for her store.

simply being kandi burruss with a clothing store isn’t marketing enough. combat that with monthly expenses and you’re already in the red before a single profit can be accounted. she should lose the store front and go online. if daisy went for a scarf and it wasn’t there, someone should have taken her info, given her a raincheck and re-stocked this product. daisy loves scarves; she would be the one person you email whenever you get new scarves in and on your shelf. she gets first dibs on ya products.

again, anybody can open a business. the successful ones are those that remain open through good and bad times.

I hope this is not true. I love Fantasia I think she is a great singer. She put’s her heart and soul in her music. I love it.
pointhimout

#21, AM, that’s funny because I unfollowed Kandi too. Yes Daisy, I unfollowed her on twitter. it irks me too that celebs be on twitter all day talking to their celeb friends, like you say–as if they dont have each others number and whatnot.

a celeb on twitter should be talking TO THEIR FANS, not their friends. but as time has proven, the celebs are on twitter merely for popularity and racking up followers, all while ignoring the same no-name followers at the same time. it’s more interesting to see what the publicists like nicole garner are up to. you expect her to talk about parties and events. i dont want to hear this from a phaedra parks or kandi, or their back and forth banter on how they’re bosses and doing it. so i stop following them.
LilMissRed

closing ALREADY? well dayum! To be honest I hadnt heard anything else about this place so I totally forgot… now I know why.. its never open… well that just sucks LOL
Ms.kaylamomma

@ pointhimout. I shopping online rather than going to the store. Not everyone can get to Smyrna, GA to shop. And like you said, just because you’re famous doesn’t mean you’re successful. She also opened it in the middle of a recession.

Hey Browwwwwnnnnsuuuuggggaaa!!!!! How are you?

Nika, not yet. My natural hair has lost it’s curl. It feel all wiry and looks dry all the time. I don’t want to cut to a TWA, again.

Morning SR Peeps.

In Kandi defense as far as not knowing the telephone number. I think the majority of ppl in the cell phone era don’t remember telephone numbers anymore. You program a number and hit send via their name. You hardly ever dial numbers anymore forcing you not to remember them.. Just me .02
SouthernPrincess

Congrats Shunda and Daisy! That is wonderful!

When I heard kandi was opening a store I was concerned with the timing. Now is not the time to open a retail store. hopefully she can rebound and turn the store around or perhaps allow you to purchase online
Daisy

@Point what made you think I care who you follow/unfollow on twitter

I don’t like on line shopping cause I like to feel/touch my clothes but to each their own.

Twitter is ridiculous and I don’t get why anyone would be on it including my boyfriend and celebrities…we in the grocery store his azz tweeting about cinnamontoast crunch I was like you are going to far who in the hell updates a public forum on minute by minute daily events in one’s life-I hope he gets the hell over twitter and on Sunday it was Shoutout Sunday my question is how does the computer and social networking become so important – anyway at Kandi I’m noticing something in her that I didn’t see before but who am I to judge…DESTROY TWITTER…and really he’s not on it everyday I just don’t get why people Tweet…I don’t know you so what is the point…now to me blogging is different…

Ms.kaylamomma

@attorneymom, when he started stutterin’ and shyt when Jacque asked him about Maya I thought that was a red flag. But I think he was caught off guard when she told him that she checked his facebook page. I wouldn’t have said one word and let him hang himself if he had anything to hide. But like Pep said, his facebook page was pretty clean so… But she won’t be going on anymore dates with Joel, she says, they will be just friends.
http://sparklesayz.com sparklesayz

I went to the shop a few weeks ago. It wouldn’t come up in my GPS and when we called the girl didn’t really help with getting us there. We finally found it to find it was tiny as hell. The clothes were little to none and the stuff we did see was not all that. We stayed for about a second and left after coming all the way from Gwinnett. The store sucked to be honest.

@Choco, I’ve had an account forever but never used it. I finally finshed setting it up because my bestie is going away for 12wks and we can use it to stay intouch when the phones go down where she will be at. Also the military used to be against all social media sites and now Sailors on some ships can use Twitter/Facebook/TogetherWeServed to stay in touch.

I thought that I would like twitter but I’m not interested in telling my everything. I don’t like relationships for that reason so I know that I don’t want to tweet all the time.

Ummm…no. LOL Kandi was a little over her head with this one. Any good businessman or businesswoman is ALWAYS ready to make a profit. That means thinking of new ways to market, having a fantastic sales pitch, not sleeping and most CERTAINLY, knowing the number and address to your place of business.

@Nika and MizzDallas- At church really?? Not judging but I would be so scared to do that at church. I’m so scarey when it comes to God. Even when I have bad thoughts I try to erase them out of my mind cause you know he can read minds too. I used to leave my phone in the car for fear that I will be in trouble for bringing it inside.Now that I’m back in my hometwon with my mother and she is the usher I’m really scared and I’m 36.
nika405

@Choco I am an usher lol, I update FB with the scripture the Pastor preaches from and then I just read everybody else’s status until he starts preaching, I mainly just check twitter to see what everyone else is saying. LJ has a SR list that a few ppl here are on…but If I have to Usher that Sunday…I don’t log on after sunday school.

That’s unfortunate. Looks like she had some nice items to offer.

All you that tweet or surf the internet during church service need an intervention. You need Twitter Anonymous – TA or Internet Addicts Anonymous. Or, you need to find a new church cause the ushers aren’t doing their job.

It’s not the economy, it’s poor business ethics and practices. How can you have your name tied to something as important as a business and not promote it with what little celebrity that you do have? Good luck with what she does next because it looks like she will promote as long as things are going well but when she gets something else going on, she is not as passionate about the first thing.
Ms.kaylamomma

Some people have a bible app on their phone where they don’t need to bring the actual book to church. I was sitting next to someone like that last Saturday and I didn’t know that. Was getting ready to ask her of she was tweeting Jesus.

After reading a few tweets from Kandi, I am beginning to look at her sideways. She started tweeting I believe from the urging of Kim on RHOA but she is really doing too much on there. If she promoted her shop like she does her “personal achievements”, I am sure the shop would be performing better. Oh well. Another one bites the dust.

@Daisy, I’ve wondered about that as well (shade thrown @ ATL) I wanted to move there a while back and people went crazy, they say all the men down there are gay, which I really don’t want to believe, because how can that be possible???? I want to visit and see for myself.

@Walking the A does have plenty of gay men but there are some straight men they are either married or playas for the most part. I am sure there are some good/great/decent straight men in this city though I just havent met one yet

Not everybody in the A is a wannabe or impressed with real or wannabe celebs. Not every female is a wanna be model/video chick etc. Plenty of NORMAL/REGULAR men and women live in the A. Wannabes/catty men/women etc. reside in every city last time I checked.

@WalkingKontradiction… it’s true about the men. They’re too many men who are either, interested in men, involved in criminal behavior, incorrigible womanizers, involved in too much drama or all of the above. When you find one of those men who are actually worth your time and effort, you see women going above and beyond to woo him too.

Atlanta is not a good city for black love, I’m comparing it to the other cities I’ve lived in (Boston & Washington, DC) and spent time socializing in. I don’t even recommend newly married couples living here, they’re some straight up MAN EATING PIRANHAS running around in Herve Leger bandage dresses pretending to be professionals but they’re professional at sleeping with other people’s men.

@Daisy & Choco…

I never played that! Straight men in Atlanta, doing something with their lives seem to think they’re some type of commodity, as if women who live in Atlanta are forced to stay within city limits in their search for love. The way I see it, I’m THE asset, if you don’t check for me, somebody worthy of all that I am, will. And he did.
Not to cause division, but that’s why I stuck to my African men no matter where I lived; they have no problem (and frankly seem to enjoy) chasing you and courting you the way it’s supposed to. Most African men I know get turned off by overly aggressive women, but they’ll still take whatever she’s offering for free. But that could be me being totally biased.

Who wants to do that. I’m not taking care of no grown man lol!!!

@ Daisy

I used to have that same attitude…let the guy approach me. I felt that women who approached men were desperate. Then I had to get realistic and understand that perhaps the man really wants to talk to you but is simply too shy to approach someone they are interested in. The guy I am courting now is the guy that I swallowed my pride and approached. He was too good of a catch for me to play the “come hither unto me” bull-ish game. There are a lot of women out there waiting for the man to approach them because of some ol’ skool hang ups. There are also a lot of women who have taken a vow of celibacy hoping that this will attract a man to them and make the man want them so bad that he will marry them in order to hit that panties. Did I mention that a lot of these women are single and blaming it on the man and White women???

Jewelry, guys are slow and don’t always pick up on vibes.

I was like that too, but I decided I wanted to date and have fun and if I found the right one, YAHHHHH! It was never an issue of ‘having to pay’, or sleeping around. And my ideal guys (marriage material) were not beating down my doors I had to go get em!

Thankfully, I met my husband in the dating process (he asked me out). If I were still so closed minded, I’d be a 34 y/o single, barren, fat, cat lady!

No I won’t ask a man out. I don’t blame my being single on anything or anybody. When God is ready for me to be in a relationship I will be.

ReadTheBlog:

It is important for women to understand that you can and should approach a man if you are feeling him. Let him know of your interest and then step back and let him do the pursuing. But at least you put it out there. That is what I did…open the door and allowed him to walk through it. It really is not rocket science…a lot of women, Black women in particular, need to get over themselves. There is a lot, I mean a lot, of competition out there and the old-fashioned ways work some of the time in a few cases.

Not that I am the new advocate for Black American Women/African Men love or anything but I just wonder why people are so closed minded to it.

Ok they come from a different culture than you but instead of thinking they are all poor, running around naked in a jungle and killing wild animals to eat, get to know one. I have only dated 2 (one I married), but my sister’s is a pro at it (all she has dated since college) and her husband is from West Africa as well and they are both good men. Yeah they have their ways and on some days you might want to F them up but that’s with all men.

Sorry but ask alot of men and an “aggressive” woman is a turn off to them. What works for you works for you, if you approached your man and yall are now living happily ever after then congrats but to those of us who don’t find it necessary to approach men that is our choice and that doesn’t make us lonely single church ladies, although I see nothing wrong w/ that either cause you’ll never be lonely with God on your side Again @ Daisy I commend you for having standards/requirements and sticking to them because you are right, when God sees fit you will be rewarded, heck I’m sure you don’t have problems pulling on a daily basis, but just because you are capable of catching the fish doesn’t mean it’s worth keeping.

I thought he was a black man when I met him, didn’t know he was African until after the fact but I said nucca bye aint nobody checking for you because of the way he approached me, like I should JUMP at the chance to holla, and I’m like no buddy you don’t know who I AM! He said that’s what got him about me, I bring him back down to earth because all these “wooers” fill your head with nonsense and you tend to lose sight of reality and what’s important. So with us it’s like that, that’s our dynamic and actually I was one of those who said I wouldn’t date an African because of all the horror stories I heard but again that is just a generalization, everyone can’t always be the same. The culture is different, I’m still learning because I’m very head strong(not militant but I’ve done everything on my own for so long that it takes a little time to compromise and let someone else do what they are supposed to do) I’m working on it.

evry African man that has tried to talk to me I had a bad experience with, they came across like they were God’s gift and didn’t like the fact that I didn’t fall all over them and was not thought just cause they showed me some attn that meant i was with them! My friend from london said it’s usually the ones from nigeria because they are raised to do everything and the woman really has no say so.

Hello Daisy thanks for my e welcome package. I’m from them DMV (D.C.,Maryland, Virginia) area and I’m single by choice. I have 3 kids and I STAN for Whitney Houston, Ledisi, Chrisette Michelle, and Michael Jackson.

@Daisy Exactly! Single does not equal lonely, and after an eight year relationship I needed a break and needed to focus on me. Idk, I believe self-esteem has alot to do with it because if you’re happy with your life then any man will be an addition to that happiness and won’t be the needed component….#jmo

So a few weeks ago me and this other chick got tired of it because she’s so loud and distractin so I pulled my pastor to the side and told him homegirl’s cosignin was very distracting and he said he was gonna talk to her in his office and she hadn’t been back since!

@ yall about these African men. This is too funny cause I swear I felt the same way. And interesting that you mention Nigerian’s because he is Nigerian but was raised a bit different. HOWEVER, I am NOT down for the multiple wives thing, and he laughed when I said it like dang, so women really think like that about us? I’m like YES and alot of times it’s true, but again as I’m learning we have stereotypes for EVERYONE and they have stereotypes for us as blacks and black women. If I thought about it every BLACK man I’ve ever dated I’ve had a bad experience with and they thought they were God’s gift and they learned the hard way from me they were sadly mistaken, doesn’t mean I wouldn’t ever date a black man again, oh who am I kidding I did say that!

@ WalkingKontradiction

I think that’s what my husband likes about me too. He always says I go hard but I TRY to make sure I still let him play his position. It takes work to balance it and especially cuz it’s not what I’m use too but it gets easier with practice.

@ Daisy, I don’t think it gets no better than my husband, I always say he is the best thing out of West Africa. I think he is absolutely beautiful (in a man way). And as far as the wives thing, well his father has 2 wives but it’s a choice it’s NOT a mandatory thing. My husband says on some days he don’t even want one wife <<<<Whatever. Anyway we talked about it we started dating and I made it clear that I’m not interested in being part of a polygamous relationship and he said he wasn’t interested in it either so we proceeded.

Good Afternoon everybody

In regards to African men, I think it’s 50/50. I’ve met some cool ones were nice and outgoing. But I’ve also met some who thought they were better than me & other Black Americans. I have noticed the “Americanized” Africans tend to be stuck up and exclusively date White women or native African women

Just because you have an online store DOES NOT mean you will be successful. The problem with majority of Urban business owners is that they don’t invest sh!t in the online properties that have to be treated like a separate business venture and it is NOT cheap! Majority of people and businesses I run into don’t want to pay a dime into their website, they are looking for folks that do it for free or just cheap. Then they wonder why nothing comes from it.

There is a reason why Zappos, Walmart, Target, etc. make a lot of money online because they invest in technology and their online presence. YOu have to have someone monitor site activities every single day, update inventory, have a distribution system from site to order processing, order updates and so on. It is has to be planned out and tweaked.

Looking at the site it looks just like that maybe paid $1500 for it, there no categories, no navigation to products, bad product description if any, no meta tagging. The site is just bad for online business and I am not saying that to be saying it. YOu have to invest in an online shopping site. Companies like Amazon, spend millions every single year for site operations. They have 100s of developers that make great money.

You can say that they have the money but they started small first wiht small staff and eventually grew. However you have to make it an investment otherwise there is no point!

I also made it clear that I DO NOT SHARE(heck raised a single child) and I’m down with a polygamous relationship, but really in this day & age you gotta let american men know the same thing, heck my grandaddy had a full fledged 2nd family in Georgia, all that was missing was the marriage license because it’s not “legal” but if you’ve set up shop imo, she’s another wife and family.

Never tried a African man and never will. I take that back maybe if he was a fine looking one. The ones I see here are ashy feet sandal wearing cab drivers. I went to an african weeding before with a friend and I fell asleep. It was tooo much singing. the bride came down to a Marvin Sapp song. When she arrived at the alter the groom started singing the song, the brides mother got up and sung along witht he grooms mother etc, etc, etc,… I nevered listened to my Marvin Sapp’s cd again. The reception was off the hook… but a 31/2 hr wedding was to darn long.Just say I do and get it over with. Food was good because it was catered by a chinese carry out.

Very good observations, Dblaq. That’s because she threw that site up quickly this morning. It wasn’t even working until a couple of hours ago. Kandi doesn’t think about anyone but herself. she promoted her bootleg video talk show but made not one tweet about that store until today. The only reason I don’t fully expose Kandi is because someone who I respect asked me not to.
Al-Ameera

Well when I say African I am talking about West Africa (maybe because it’s all I know) but to say all Africans are this and that is like when they say that all American black men are drug dealers and all American black women are video girls. They are just silly generalizations that can be easily done away with by communicating. Simple

But for the record when my husband and I got married I moved in with him, his brother and two cousins until his lease was up and then we got our own place. I tell you it was the longest 5 months ever living with 4 men, coming home smelling goat cooking almost every day, ugh. But they did EVERYTHING for me. They cleaned, they cooked (not that I ate it), they ironed my clothes; they took my clothes to the cleaners, bought me stuff, etc. If my husband wasn’t home one of the others would run errands for me. So I have nothing bad to say about them.

Now I know some bad ones too….

Very good observations, Dblaq. That’s because she threw that site up quickly this morning. It wasn’t even working until a couple of hours ago. Kandi doesn’t think about anyone but herself. she promoted her bootleg video talk show but made not one tweet about that store until today. The only reason I don’t fully expose Kandi is because someone who I respect asked me not to.

Sandra the site has been up for a couple of weeks!

KaraZ ok ok I’ll marry one but let me up my stock in shea butter so we will have ample supply for their feet!

@ Al-Ameera all I believe in is the good Lord that sits high in the sky. Now if he comes to me and whispers softly in my ear and say I hane a Nigerian/ African mandingo brother that I am going to send to you. I want you to love him unconditionally and all his flaws. I will whisper back ” do I have to love those feet too”
VIBABY

Dead @ Quetta. Stop it I say!

My hubby has nice feet but never wears sandal/flip flops. I swear the men with the most dusty, bulletridden feet always have their damn feet exposed. WTF?!

And goat meat is the ish @Al-meera…lol I live in the south and they eat chitterlins and deer meat, but turn their noses up at some goat. Chile boooooo…lol

Yep!
It’s funny cuz my husband or the fashion wh*re (as my sister calls him) is all about dressing in name brands, generally only wears expensive shoes and always smells good. But what about the lotion? People always comment on how nice he looks but there are some days he will throw on some jeans, a polo shirt with the collar up and some flip flops with no lotion and then it all comes back who I am dealing with. I think where is this African going like that? LOL but I’m still keeping him!

@VI I dont eat chittlins, deer meat or goat and I am from the South. Goat may be good never tried it now I only eat chicken/fish so I am good yall enjoy though.

@Al-Ameera
Too cute where this african going like that-Girl the polo shirt with the collar up is so 80’s but you gotta love the nerve : )
KaraZ

y’all don’t know how hot it is in Africa, we can’t be putting on lotion and goign out in that hot azz sun, we’ll burn to a crisp! That’s why many of our men don’t wear lotion.

*Not true, but it’s my plausible explanation and i’m sticking to it. QUETTA SHUT IT NOW!*
VIBABY

@Daisy You act like you’re the average southerner..lol I am sure most ppl give you the *side eye* when you talk about all the things you DONT eat. SATDOWN! :lolol:

I think I am going to make this my story too

@Choco, he rocks that collar up like he is so official and lord forbid you tell him he’s not

@VI, I just like to make fun of the goat cuz they eat it so dang much….but really even when I ate meat being from Cali I never ate it. My sister and best friend love it tho, they say it taste like sweet beef.

I dated a Nigerian in college and I never got this answer

One of his friends kicked off his sandals while were sitting in the food court at the mall eating. Not only did he expose his crusty, ashy feet but he wrapped them around the legs of the chair…like he was climbing a tree backwards.

@Corporate
OMG your african man was acting like a sloth in the food court holding my head in shame lmao so hard
winenroses

Obviously if the store had any reason to be open, meaning if they were making any real money, it would have been. If it comes down to buying food and paying bills or shopping for high end apparel,well, Tags is a result of what happens.

Drive past a Goodwill Store sometimes. You’ll see almost

as many cars on their parking lot as you see at the Mall.
crzasallgetout

@daisy
I’m in the south too and my list is long as well. I don’t eat hog mog, chitlins, watermelon, kool-aid, or deer meat.

I go to lunch, come back and I almost regurgitate my lunch laughing at yall! @ Quetta and all the Africans that will be chasing her down the street!

And really about the crusty feet because I think it’s genetic, mine gets regular pedicures and says nothing helps he said he still has hobbit feet no matter what and won’t show them because he’s afraid I’ll never talk to him again! LMAO
BellaBarbie

Can’t say I’m shocked. Her branding and marketing is really horrible. Too bad her and her PR crew didn’t know how to take full advantage of her 5 minutes of fame. Smh. Moving right along…

So correct me if I’m wrong lol this translates to he wears socks to bed and ladies I’m laughing with you not at you cuz my man is not african and his feet frighten the hell out of me so much I won’t even describe them let’s just say I think he’s been walking on his toes all life lolololo
WalkingKontradiction

@Choco, your translation would be CORRECT! When he said that I laughed so hard I was crying for about 5min, he was like I need to just show you and get it over with, I said NO THANKS, remember we just had dinner!
LilMissRed

Just checked out Kandi’s site.. wish I had some more BUTT for some of those jeans LOL and the friggin top I like is sold out.. guess I gotta sign up for that mailing list so I can be ontop of it from now on rather than relying on Blogs huh?

Daisy

@Craz I dont eat greens, peppers, onions, tom, okra, pork, beef and so on and so forth
Al-Ameera

@Daisy with the exception of onions and okra I don’t like any of those either
WalkingKontradiction

@ Daisy & Al, No GREENS???? as a fellow loser of my black card I would like to say that you two as well have been revoked of yours! LOL, I lost mine when I admitted I don’t like hot sauce!

@Choco, you are wrong, but it’s hilarious!
Al-Ameera

@ Walking

Greens are yucky, all of them. Oh but I do like the turnips but the hate the greens. Does that count for anything?
WalkingKontradiction

Lol, ok Al I’m confused, turnips? Or turnip greens? That would determine if it counts or not
Al-Ameera

Turnip greens, I only eat the white turnip part NOT the green leaves.
Cinnamon Kisses

What in dee hail???? Yall don’t like hotsauce or greens? Mannnnn I would kill for some greens right NOW. I just don’t have the energy right now. On sunday I made bbq ribs homemade mashed potatoes corn on the cob.
Al-Ameera

Ooooh I love corn on the cob!
