"Art Is Never Finished, Only Abandoned." Da Vinci
Claude Thompson dramatizes the opening of "CAM-Florist | Detroit" @ HoodFlorist.com. He's cross promoting his Flower shop, and, "Those That Flow", together, to an Anthology of Music. The term Anthology comes from the Greek word anthologia, meaning a "collection of Flowers".
Claude's "HoodFlorist.com" Story, follows "Claude Neighbors". While pitching a Detroit Florist reality Show, Claude is in negotiations to franchise his Flower Shop Downtown. His contract contains both, non-compete, and morality clauses, to keep Claude from starring in the show.
So, Claude avoids conflicts of interests, with "CAM-FLORIST", by spinning-off an Underground BRAND, "CLAWED De Florist", formerly, "CLAWED De Beats", the curator, of music left at his defunct studio, "Chef Joy RD". Claude stays on as Executive Producer of "Hustle & Flowers".
So, follow Claude Thompson, repurpose "Decompositions" (music left to rot), as the Score to HoodFlorist.com. When Under Contracts, "CAM-Florist, Inc.", gets ALL the credit for Claude's work, he spins-off The Artist "CLAWED De Florist", to work UNDERGROUND, without them.
