Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?

 I invested $5000 into the 'Roc The Mic' event organized by C2 Productions.  The event was to have several celebrity appearances, including Lil Kim, Obie Trice, and Keyshia Ka'oir. The day of the event, several complaints surfaced, from models not being paid, to patrons demanding refunds and celebrity cancellations. 

I was promised a return of $1000 of the profit from the event and a personal guarantee, by Joy Booker-Thornton, on the principle. To date, no money has been returned.

 

For two weeks following the event Joy Booker-Thornton did not answer the phone or return any attempt at contact.  We have since spoken but I have have gotten nothing but excuses and stall tactics about the return of the money.  

 

I am concerned that other sponsors, business owners, and investors will fall victim to this financially desperate business.

  As the CFO of C2 Productions (Creating.The.Way.Out), it is never my intentions to have any dissatisfied customers, patrons or participants. My business is 6yrs old and we're always evolving to reach our Best Potential. However, when it comes to this particular gentleman, Anree G. Little, owner of Don't Break Clothing Line, the timing of productivity and resolution is not befitting to his desires. Yes he was an investor of the LIL KIM event for $5K, but because I did not know him well, I was strongly against his request of becoming an investor. I told him on several occasions that I didnt believe his involvement was in good faith. His attitude was quite fearful and presumptuous. But yet he assured me that he was supportive of my movement because of his own. After 2hours of convincing, I welcomed the opportunity. The event went on and because of uncontrollable circumstances and lack of ticket support, the event struggled to fulfill all financial requirements. This was devastating to myself, my team and all involved. Because I was $5K short from paying LIL KIM of her $25K request, her manager, went on stage to shut my event Down after I pleaded with him just to wait. So I only complied with her $20K plus 5 Flights, 5 Hotel Suites | 2016 Rolls Royce and 2016 Bentley and Food. Plus Venue | Decor | Radio | Flyers | Posters | Tickets | Tables | Keyshia Ka'oir Deposit | Rooms | Ground Transportation and More! I was in the whole about $40K from only selling about 40 Tickets in total. Now, this isn't an excuse, but it IS the reason I financially struggled. I explained to Mr. Little all of these things, even offered proof of receipts, He did not care. He said that a deal was a deal. Which is correct. But I cannot give something I don't have. I tried to work other events for other promoters to make ends meet, but because of the Backlash of being called a scam artist and thief, led by Nneka from BFLyy Creations, I could not get enough advertisement participants to cover the multitude of debts. So I continued to try with no emotional time to recover. But was still unsuccessful. So, in order to attempt to fulfill the request in a more timely effect, I reached out to other city and states. As soon as I began to get going, I was abruptly forced to cease all promotion due to a anonymous IG page made by Anree G. Little called "BROKE_NINJA_REPORT" where he is soliciting for all of my followers from my business pages to draw them in to his World of Revenge. He also created a Website that gives the illusion that they are a legitimate blog company that has done a report of the event. That website Also possesses the Lawsuit that He filed against me as well. It also provides a link to this particular RipOffReport Site that He also has a complaint on. When asked from various participants to stop and take it down, he proudly refused, thus proving his theory of exploiting my business will somehow provide him with payment results immediately. He has been informed on numerous of occasions that this is a procedure and to be patient, but calls them "Fantasies" and continues to extort for payment. He's upset that others has received refunds and he hasn't received a payment yet. But he was the very last to be involved and I went in the order of involvement. I'm so sorry that he feels the need to go to this extreme, but this is not the way to resolve issues especially being a business man that purposes to uplift Entrpreneurship and Celebrate the Courage of those who continue to fight despite obstacles. Maybe that's why the IG page is anonymous. But I just want to resolve this issue and calling me and my company broke and destitute goes against the entire entrepreur process. Many business within their first 6yrs have struggled financially, but I refuse to quit because of it, nor allow him to force me back into a job so he can garnish me for a guarantee payment. I truly apologize again for the outcome of my actions, but I am a woman who is eagerly and creatively working to resolve them.
