The fully leased property was secured in a $10 million deal . This investment came on the heels of Flo Rida’s legal victory against Celsius over a breach of contract, which resulted in an $82.6 million award, per CBS News. “You might own a house and things like that, but growing up just looking at highrises and things like that, the first thing is not to think that you can own it,” Flo Rida told the Miami Herald. “Maybe you have a spot there, but you won’t really own it. So to actually own our own plaza is just phenomenal.” The plaza is home to several businesses, including Cloverleaf Beauty Supply, Creole Kitchen, Boost Mobile, Top Notch Cigars & Smoke Shop, and Flowers by Grace, a staple for three decades...

That’s the show.’ Well, in this day and age, it is being able to be authentic to what you’re talking about and how you’re talking about it. And we’re seeing more and more creatives or creators create stories,...
If you have even a passive interest in sports, professional fighting , or mixed martial arts, you’re undoubtedly aware of the UFC, which shattered records in 2023 as the largest MMA promotion in the world.

Cam Newton is no stranger to investing. But now, the Carolina Panthers star is sharing why he chose to invest in Daring Foods, a plant-based startup that manufactures a chicken substitute. “For plant-based meat alternatives, 2021 was a breakout year, and the market is only looking more lucrative going into 2022,” he said to Fortune Magazine. “Daring Foods is developing sustainable healthier meat replacements for the most widely consumed animal protein: chicken.” Cam Newton also said that his decision to invest in the company had to do with his decision to be proactive with his health. “Being a Black man who grew up in the South, fried chicken was a staple in most diets. It was inexpensive and delicious; while not the healthiest option, we sometimes even had it twice a day,” he said to One Green Planet. “Something I hope to accomplish with Daring is to teach the Atlanta community and others the power of plant-based eating. Forming a healthy diet doesn’t need to be expensive and can...
