Quartet gets less bold

8 Jan 2006 13:5013 commentsBizLike
The four founding members of the agency AfricaExtraBold - Sefadzi Foli, Wingwing Mdlulwa, Bob Rightford and Brian Searle-Tripp - have decided to part ways.
"We have reached a point where it is clear that we cannot continue operating as one company, due to differing views on how to take the agency forward and so we will be operating as separate agencies going forward," say Foli and Mdlulwa.

A final decision on whether to rename the agency still has to be made.

When will white companies realise that blacks are no longer interested in providing window dressing but have brains and creativity too. Posted on 10 Jan 2006 10:16

Backed by heavyweights means nothing...-
... if the guys selling this empowered agency simply don't have it. Sorry to say but reality does stink huh! Why should this have worked? Alot of hot air was blown outta those forefront mouths that didn't meet the client's expectations... Posted on 10 Jan 2006 12:24

Baboons have brains too.-
This is not a competition to see who has bigger brains, people who keep bringing the issue up belong in the wild. Posted on 10 Jan 2006 14:03
How many baboons are in your agency -
Funny how white folks are so ardent to refute and denfend the most prevelant issue inas far black participation in the ad industry but all understandably so because it is a white mentality industry of white thought where blacks are seen to have very little credibility if any.

let's get things off the 'grill'-
I just want to congratulate Wingwing and Sefadzi (the brothas) for scooping their first successful ad campaign: judging by the tons and kinds of comments about your just making a move and announcing it, your primary objectives have been met: YOU'VE MANAGED TO CAUSE A REACTION! be it big, small, happy, sad or bad, it's still one that's on paper so your money's just been made. Well done!!! Posted on 11 Jan 2006 12:26

Okay, I've got nothing really to say, just thought the comment heading was a more appropriate headline. Posted on 16 Jan 2006 14:51
