Dallus - Need Money

DALLUS is a Hip Hop duo comprised of two brothers Tyson and Trevor Barnette who bring to us ‘Need Money’. The two brothers, raised in the city of Dallas, NC, started in music at an early age. The two brothers came together to create a style of music uniquely their own with a mixture of many genres of music. DALLUS’s intention is to bring creative freshness to the ears of listeners.

Kgrind.com  - the multi channel broadband entertainment network that was going to be the first global, multi platform MTV ... A template for television in the new media age!  A post card from the future that confused an excited people as much as it made them cynical ...

How did this skateboard punk (me)  come up with such an ambitious plan?   Why did Macquarie Bank, the most hard core of all investment banks, decide to back him? How did he convince them? What was the X factor that this Jon Peters character had? What was the telling thing that made Macquarie Bank (and other investors in Silicon Valley) so excited and so keen to fall over each other to get a stake in the game ? Was it just another dot com>? Or was there some substance to the pitch? When the dot com bubble burst why were Macquarie unable to take the business fwd if they believed in it so much ? Was it all just a lie? A myth ? Why were people so keen for this to be the truth? What was the truth behind the mysterious bail out offers from UPC Holland and who were the backers who finally took it forward . What ever happened to Jon Peters? If he was the man with the billion dollar vision then where is that vision now?  What did his staff really think of him? 

Truth is that Im the only one who knows all the answers to all of this is Jon Peters (me!) - all answered in a no holes barred book  'Turning Purple in the Purple Patch - How NOT to be an Internet Entrepreneur!'  

Presented as interactive e-book - this book takes readers on a no holes barred interactive journey into the world of new media by covering the four start ups that Jon Peters founded from 1998 to 20012. From the dynamic Siicon Valley loaded bubble of Kgrind, the adult entertainment portal at Private.com, the women's adult entertainment brand Riot Kitty to the privately backed drug fuelled 'Dallus' - the book cuts away to video interviews, photographs, website designs, sex!, recorded conversations of threats and accusations, secret meetings, abusive and threatening emails - all taking you inside what really happens in the world of an entrepreneur with a vision that everyone wants to own and and where everyone believes that they are on the brink of being a billionaire !  

This blog will include many of the exerts from the book that relate to solely to Kgrind ... Other insights to  other start ups can be found at www.jonp.com ... The book will be released in chapters over the coming months !
