Hashstoria is not only a new business venture for Raekwon, but also an opportunity to give back to the Newark community. “I’ve always been proud of my roots and I’m excited to bring something new to the city that I love,” said Raekwon in a statement. “Hashstoria is more than just a cannabis lounge, it’s a place for the community to come together, enjoy good music and connect with one another.”
The lounge will provide a unique and safe environment for people to consume marijuana and learn about the different strains and products available. Hashstoria will have knowledgeable staff on hand to help customers with any questions or concerns and provide guidance on how to use their products in the safest and most effective manner. The lounge will also feature a bar, lounge areas, and private rooms for events and private gatherings.
Hashstoria’s presence in Newark comes at a time when the city is undergoing a revitalization effort. Downtown Newark is home to a growing number of businesses and cultural institutions, making it a hub of activity and a popular destination for visitors. “Hashstoria is a great addition to the downtown area and will help to further establish Newark as a destination for recreational and cultural activities,” said Newark Mayor Ras Baraka.
The opening of Hashstoria is also a positive step for New Jersey’s cannabis industry, which is expected to generate significant tax revenue for the state. According to a report by New Frontier Data, the legal cannabis market in New Jersey is projected to reach $1.1 billion by 2024. The new cannabis lounge will create jobs and provide a much-needed boost to the local economy.
