Spice wants to help fans earn money all 2021
For 2021, dancehall entertainer Spice wants to go “where the
money reside,” and she’s taking her fans with her.
The deejay’s new favourite word is focus, in light of the recent
shots that have taken aim at her brand and integrity over the past two months.
“Let’s focus on money this year,” she told fans on Instagram last night. “Let’s keepour focus and if you see me a get off track, tag me and say ‘focus’. That’s thekey word, focus… Straight money we a deal wid this year, straighthustling.”
The Back Bend artiste
is putting action behind her words, as she said she’ll be launching an
ambassador partnership to help her fans earn cash.
“I have an affiliate program for my company and what I’m
basically doing is I’m looking for ambassadors where you get a percentage of
what I make,” she said. “It’s a website, it will be very transparent
to you but it’s like a side job – you make your own money from it… We will send
you products, maybe things to post or whatever it is but you make a percentage
off of each sale with your code and that’s my way of just giving back to fans
or girls weh waan mek something on the side.”
She didn’t stop there, and listed a myriad of things unemployed
folks can venture into which require little to no capital, like babysitting,
gardening and catering.
“Yuh probably is not a teacher by profession, maybe yuh nav a
certificate fi it but maybe your education level is so good and you realise
that you could teach maybe smaller children or help dem with homework. That’s a
job; you don’t need money for it. So the likkle ghetto girl dem weh inna di
community mi know unno bright…mi know other people a go a work and probably
want dem likkle four-year-old, five-year-old fi do homework or dem likkle
nine-year-old fi get prepared for PEP…”
She told fans to not be discouraged by the popular saying that
“black people don’t support each other.”
“I have two businesses (Facesand Laces and Graci Noir)…a whoa buy mi something dem? A who a support mi? When mi go a my show dem and dipeople dem pay dem hard-working money…a who a support me?… The system setdah way deh fi we bring dung each other, fi we nuh support each other so dembeat the phrases inna we head and we believe it. Nothing no go so.”
She also acknowledged that some viewers may dismiss her virtual
TED Talk because she is in a better financial position.
“I start from these little things because a lot of times unno
love seh unno nuh have no money fi dweet… Unno love seh, ‘You have money so you
can say it’. Unno don’t remember when there was a time when I never have none
and is start mi start from somewhere.”
The entertainer intends to follow-up on her “focus
mission” by forming groups where she motivates her fans.
“We need fi start up some group, mi need fi explain to unno
mi journey.”
