.@TemsBaby and I met with some aspiring artists at the Obama Presidential Center’s new Media Suite! Barack and I hope this Media Suite will become a place where young people can find their voice, learn about music, and make beautiful art.
One Key Lesson Everyone Must take from To Kill A Monkey👇
This scene.
Even though he was drowning in pressure—broke, scared, uncertain—when Oboz offered him the job, Efe didn’t just accept it blindly.
He paused, looked him in the eye, and asked for 30% of the cut.
That scene was powerful because it showed:
•His tech skill gave him leverage; even in a world ruled by crime.
•He wasn’t just a desperate victim; he still had some control.
•It foreshadowed his ambition; Efe wasn’t planning to stay small.
And Oboz respected that.
He didn’t argue. That silence and nod? It said “You’ve got balls.”
And it leaves us with this single lesson—
Never negotiate from a place of absolute weakness. Have something you can at least drop on the table and stand firmly on it to show its value.
It’s the only way to get what you want.
A father advising his son on relationships, validating his son’s feelings..no tough guy talk or misogynistic attitudes…healthy open dialogue abt being love.
