    Good job nailing the cruise to Haiti two weeks ago. We loved the Bouyon vibes there at the Freeport and on the ship. Big up Asa!

    Yes. Wishing you all the success my brother. We need to start selling our own brand as individuals. Asa, KKK and the rest have been doing a great job so far. Keep up the continued effort.
