Nothing more powerful than 2 powerful Black man agreeing on working together. This one is for black excellence.

Many questions about how this valuation was made began to be asked on social media. Slikour On Life reported the figure, adding that Cassper invited his accountant to the special occasion. No further details have been given by both parties. The Citizen reached out for further comment and is waiting for a response. This didnt stop tweeps from having their say on what they thought the nitty gritties of the deal were. From my observation seems like they will source funding. Then using the network of stores, they will sell collabo merchandise and leveraging the others status in the entertainment industry they will partner on endorsement deals. Target margins for all thise things is R100 mill.  Thabo Maubane (@Thabo_Maubane) June 8, 2021  Hhayi be realistic bro. Drip is not worth a 100 million. This is probably a projection on how much Cass is to make from the deal. Not that he signed 100 million on the spot.
