      Cafe Dupri looked like a ramshackle, rundown, threadbare tenament compared to the other ritzy, high-rent, snooty, crap on Piedmont. That was the problem. When it comes to fancy-schmancy shit, it’s all about the pretty presentation and Dupri didn’t have that, kin-folk.

      This is a shame. I can understand a failing economy, but JD needs to pay the overdue wages.

      JD if you’re having money problems that bad then just borrow the money from your girl to pay your employees. What are we talking about? Maybe, three to four thousand dollars? Come on dude.
      I’m quite sure the ex-employee’s need their money to pay bills and by food for their family’s. Everybody can’t ride on 24′s.
