#BlackTwitter, why give Elon $8 a month? We have six shows on the @BlkStarNetwork. Three shows in development. We want to launch 5 more next year. I am asking for $50 a year. That’s 4.19 a month; 13 cents a day. HALF of what Elon wants! Give at RolandMartinUnfiltered.com! 1/6

Since launching four years ago, 30,000 people have joined the @BlkStarNetwork #BringTheFunk Fan Club. WE can’t keep saying we want and need Black news if WE don’t fund it! I have NO millionaires/billionaires funding me. NO Black celebs cutting big checks. But we do the work! 2/6

Don’t give Elon $8 for a blue checkmark. Send a check off to #BlackOwnedMedia! Check or money orders to: P.O. Box 57196, Washington, DC 20037-0196. @CashApp $RMUnfiltered @Venmo RMUnfiltered @Zelle [e-mail]. @PayPal PayPal.me/RMartinUnfilte… 3/6

Right now, the @BlkStarNetwork has 937,833 @YouTube subscribers. Let’s hit 1 million by the end of the year! We have 50,000 downloads of the @BlkStarNetwork app. Let’s hit 100,000 by the end of the year. We are also launching a 24-hour streaming channel this year! 4/6

Bottom line, folks. We’ve gotta walk the walk and talk the talk. Oh, let me give a shout out to @Cindy_EnVogue and @TerryLEllis of @EnVogueMusic. Not only did they gift me the #RolandMartinUnfiltered theme song, they are also #BringTheFunk Fan Club members! 5/6

I have big plans for the @BlkStarNetwork. We want to create a true Black-owned news and info network. That’s why I’m fighting hard to get these ad agencies @GroupMWorldwide @MediaComGlobal @WPP @MAGNAGLOBAL to fund Black-owned media.
We have the eyeballs. We need the $$$! 6/6
