Hater Proof Hog
The King of the Smiley Face! Hater Proof, tell us what is your real name and where are you from? Quenton Barnes, Sr. I am originally from Huntsville, Alabama. I’m from the North Side, Meadow Hills. I moved to Tennessee in 1998.
When did you get the idea to start your own business; what became the motivation behind it? I am a Rap Artist and started in 2003. I was on a mission to find myself. Started a clothing line with the smiley face in 2005. I perform with no fear. I feel that if you believe in yourself, you invest in yourself.

My clothing line represents my expression to elevate lives with the smiley face logo. When I revised the logo and added the money the internet loved it; they went crazy. Now we have hats, socks, women’s wear. Shit done went crazy.
What would you say has been the biggest perk owning your own business? Branding myself through the smile, basically just being hater proof. Spend my own money. I’m self made.

Story By: Sativa Banks
What sparked your interest to go in the Bedroom Kandi Business? I learned of this business by watching the owner Kandi Buress on TV and said What the hay, let me try this, I just may have found my nitch. What will you say has been the biggest perk owning your own business? The freedom of it. Being able to control your own plan and running straight through it. What are some of the things you’ve learned along the way that you can give advice on? You will have road blocks, but don’t let them stop you; Also make sure you love what you do and that you must have a passion behind your business.
www.EVERYTHINGLIFEBRINGS.com
What are some of the places you have been able to travel now that you are an entrepreneur? I took my family to New York and New Jersey as a surprise for my son and I didn’t even have to save up for it. I paid for it off of two Bedroom Kandi Parties alone.
10
Where do you see yourself progressing in the future with your business? I would like to open up a store front boutique as well and not only sell Bedroom Kandi, but fashionable clothes also. What are some products that Bedroom Kandi provides? For starters everything in the line is organic, the toys don’t throw off your PH balance as well. We have body oils, soap bars, intimate health and wellness items, skin lighteners, massage oils, candles, pheromones which attracts people to you by its scent. How can the public get in contact with you? www.bkparties.com/4899 205-427-3607 Facebook: Jacquita McGhee
