1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,560
Speaker 1: Sean Combs is a great entrepreneur.

2
00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:05,240
Speaker 2: He is I will go down in history as one

3
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:09,559
Speaker 2: of the greatest entrepreneurs in American history from my standpoint.

4
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:11,799
Speaker 1: And he's a great entrepreneur. First, a lot of people

5
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,120
Speaker 1: don't know he started as a businessman.

6
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:16,599
Speaker 2: He you know, the people know him as an artist

7
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:18,960
Speaker 2: and a fashion icon and so on and so forth,

8
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 2: but his first role in the entertainment business was as

9
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,600
Speaker 2: an owner, you know, first as an an r at

10
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:29,320
Speaker 2: Uptown Records, but then you know, ultimately as an owner

11
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 2: of Bad Boy Records. He was not an artist when

12
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 2: he first owned bad Boy Records. So from there, from

13
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 2: you know, where he took that company alone as a

14
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 2: as an entrepreneur was incredible and would go down in

15
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 2: history in and of itself. But then too, one of

16
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 2: the things I said, I was really super fortunate to experience,

17
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,280
Speaker 2: and this is something that you know, is part of

18
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 2: the American dream experience is to see businesses go from

19
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: an idea from like sketches on a table to like

20
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 2: a real business with hundreds of employees with hundreds of

21
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 2: million dollars in sales, and like not just once like

22
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 2: I started like three four times over literally like things

23
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 2: being sketched. We're gonna do this, We're gonna do this.

24
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,400
Speaker 2: How the cloth is gonna look? What's the TV network

25
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 2: gonna look like? You know how, what are the segments

26
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 2: we want you know, on on a twenty four hour day,

27
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 2: and what's that gonna look like?

28
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 1: Going from that, you know, from an idea to actually happening.

29
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 2: And that's a phenomenal, incredible thing, really difficult to do,

30
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 2: and to do it, you know, three or four times

31
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 2: over in a big way, like uh, you know Sean

32
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 2: Combs did is really unprecedented. And we're not talking about

33
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 2: a huge.

34
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 3: Time for what's on, like twenty years, he's done this

35
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 3: full time.

36
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,960
Speaker 2: Absolutely, you've still got to still going to come too, right,

37
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 2: So this is these are the years where most executives

38
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 2: are really just getting into groove and and creating great,

39
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 2: great ideas.

40
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: So here here's what's so.

41
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 2: I will say he is rarefied air as an entrepreneur.

42
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 2: So you have to understand that first. So it's not

43
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 2: it's not by accident, it's not you know luck, it's

44
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 2: you know, he has great instincts. He has great instincts,

45
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 2: he has great negotiating instincts, he has great instincts of

46
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 2: the marketplace.

47
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 1: Right. So essentially what.

48
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 2: Puff purposefully created was a whole new category, which you

49
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 2: know I call and we call urban aspirational.

50
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: That category really.

51
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 2: Didn't exist, right, so and off of that category if

52
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,639
Speaker 2: you really think about everything he created. So it started

53
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 2: with the music and everybody was talking about the shiny suits, this,

54
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 2: that and the other. But he showed you lifestyle that

55
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 2: no one ever thought about other than in a comedic way,

56
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 2: showing you know, for the hip hop community. He showed

57
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 2: you private jet lifestyle, jet ski lifestyle, and it all

58
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 2: was purposeful about this narrative around.

59
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 1: You know, we can aspire to these great things.

60
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,839
Speaker 2: Sean John was totally about aspirations, like I want to clothes.

61
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 1: That feel like you're rich that you're wearing.

62
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 2: I want you know, at this time, he had, you know,

63
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 2: he had felt you know, Gucci and all these other

64
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 2: brand names on him, and he's like, I want Sewing

65
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 2: John to feel like that on the consumer.

66
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: And I wanted to fit them right, and they're going

67
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: to feel like, you know, a million bucks when they

68
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: put it on.

69
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 2: So he created a whole category once again just a

70
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 2: rare thing for anybody to do. And he parlayed that

71
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 2: category into different consumer products groups from from clothing to

72
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 2: uh to then spirits you know, to to even how

73
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: he approached his television work and uh, you know, and

74
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 2: and and many other different consumer products categories that he

75
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 2: got it involved in, including water and and and other things.

76
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 2: So aquar aquadre. So I started on cameras so you

77
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 2: can see it. Uh so uh yeah so that so.

78
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 2: But but a couple of things I would say, this

79
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 2: is really I think unique about someone like myself working

80
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 2: with him. I'm there to be the analytical person and

81
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 2: to do everything I learned, right, is like do valuation models.

82
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: And for all of my fellow.

83
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 2: MBAs and so on, like when you get around someone

84
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,799
Speaker 2: like as Sean Combs or Sean Carter or whatever, don't

85
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 2: think you have to lose the skill set that you're

86
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 2: supposed to be bringing to the table. In fact, trust

87
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 2: that skill set because it's really important and it's important

88
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 2: for you to bring that to the table.

89
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: But I would say what I learned is that.

90
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 2: There is something important about instinct, there is something important

91
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 2: about celebrity, and there is something important about you knowing.

92
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: Your value and being able to walk away from a deal.

93
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 1: So I would say.

94
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 2: One of the great things that Sean was able to

95
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 2: always do it almost any deal I was involved in

96
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 2: him with is I would set the range and say, Okay,

97
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,280
Speaker 2: we're going to the room. If we get this deal

98
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 2: to around this level. You know, if we get it

99
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,160
Speaker 2: too like fifteen million, that's a really good deal.

100
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: We really should do it right.

101
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 2: If it's below that, we can, you know, maybe we

102
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 2: want to keep negotiating, you know whatever. So many times

103
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 2: I've been in the room and we get to the

104
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 2: fifteen and I'm like, I'm smiling, I'm happy, like smiling

105
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 2: on the inside, and he's and you know, he's just

106
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 2: he'll look at him like, yeah, all right, well I

107
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 2: don't think we're gonna have a deal today. You know,

108
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 2: y'all just don't really know my value. Thanks very much.

109
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 2: I talked to you and I'm like kicking them, like

110
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 2: what are you doing? We got we got to our number.

111
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.

112
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 2: But he was like I could look in their eyes

113
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 2: and know they wanted to do more.

114
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. I knew, I know they

115
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: are not leaving here without doing this deal. But like

116
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:44,600
Speaker 1: I said, everyone's down.

117
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 2: An entrepreneur that takes guts and to walk away from

118
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 2: some of the numbers we would walk away from and

119
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 2: say no to that he would walk away from and

120
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 2: say no to. Takes a lot of guts and belief

121
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 2: in yourself and he and that was part of how

122
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:00,679
Speaker 2: he approached deals.

123
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 1: He never went into a deal like I gotta have it.

00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 5: and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just some

160
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 5: of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President Donald J.

161
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 5: Trump's leadership. I'm Christy Noman, the United States Secretary of

162
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 5: Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border crossings are

163
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 5: at the lowest levels ever recorded, and over one hundred

164
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 5: thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If you are here illegally,

165
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 5: your next you will be fine nearly one thousand dollars

166
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 5: a day, imprisoned and deported, you will never return. But

167
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,959
Speaker 5: if you register using our CBP home app and leave now,

168
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 5: you could be allowed to return legally. Do what's right.

169
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:50,959
Speaker 5: Leave now. Under President Trump, America's laws, border and families

170
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 5: will be protected.

171
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: Sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security too.

172
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 2: He never went as anything with desperation, and some of

173
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 2: that is about planning.

174
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: When you saw Sean Combs and Bad Boy Do, it

175
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 1: had been in the works for years.

176
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 2: I wasn't involved in anything that didn't take twelve to

177
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 2: twenty four months.

178
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 1: It had been in the work for years.

179
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 2: So none of these are like knee jerk, like one

180
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 2: of the better places to be as an athlete or

181
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:22,200
Speaker 2: an entertainer. Is where you have to make decisions to survive,

182
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 2: right survival decisions versus you've mapped out. Of course, Like

183
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 2: you know, Sean was very strategic about when am I

184
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 2: going to be in the spirits business. I know I'm

185
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 2: going to be there at a certain point, but I

186
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 2: want to build my brand of celebration and I want

187
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 2: to build my brand of aspiration enough so that when

188
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 2: I get to the spirits business, I could create a

189
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 2: brand that sits at a certain price point, that stands

190
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 2: for a certain thing, and that will be presented the

191
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 2: right way. So these things were orchestrated, you know, years

192
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 2: in advance before we got into the businesses. And then

193
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 2: negotiating the deals. To negotiate the deal you really want

194
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 2: sometimes takes a long time and means you're gonna have

195
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 2: to have a lot of patients, a lot of faith

196
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 2: in yourself. People are gonna come to you many times

197
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,439
Speaker 2: to say all right, do this deal. Now we're walking away,

198
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 2: and you may have to say, all right, walk away, No,

199
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 2: You're worth right, And I mean that was him. He

200
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 2: was great at that, but also great at just identifying opportunities.

201
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 2: We talked about it earlier, identifying white space in the

202
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 2: spirits industry that the success of Sarak was all about identifying.

203
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 1: The white space.

204
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 2: There was no premium alcohol that our community could call

205
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 2: it rome. They were like running to the Great Gooses

206
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 2: all these other brands that really didn't want.

207
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: Us as customers.

208
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 2: And he knew there was just a huge white space.

209
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 1: So how did the Sarrock deal even come about? Right?

210
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,559
Speaker 1: Because at that time we saw a lot of.

211
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 6: People, well mostly I felt like that boy in Rockefell

212
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 6: were going back and forth, right, they had Rock a Wiz,

213
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 6: Seawan John Uh, the shouts John, I loved the fifth

214
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:03,839
Speaker 6: that was like, I'll fade the crolling line, like we

215
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 6: don't want that fifth ass to all the time, right,

216
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 6: But you know they were coming out with Armordale and

217
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,559
Speaker 6: I remember Ludacris had came out with an alcohol and

218
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 6: was what was the idea to create your own or

219
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 6: partner with a company that was already existed.

220
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:18,439
Speaker 1: How did that deal come though?

221
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,839
Speaker 2: So the deal was with the I Joe and they

222
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 2: had done a couple of things with bad Boy and

223
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 2: Sean and just loved the results. I think I'm not

224
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 2: even sure what the lords list of things were, but

225
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 2: whether they were events, parties, everything, they did you know, uh,

226
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 2: you know, puff just over delivered to you know in

227
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 2: a way that they were like, we really want to

228
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 2: be in business with So Honestly, the initial conversations were

229
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 2: a range of things. You know, we could start our

230
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 2: own products, could develop something from scratch and.

231
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 7: And or anything like what do you want to do

232
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 7: the type of thing right which need to So I

233
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,199
Speaker 7: think the biggest thing that happened was they had this

234
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 7: product this uh, this product that they said, you know,

235
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 7: look we just launched.

236
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,839
Speaker 2: This is not it really hasn't done much, you know,

237
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 2: what do you think about it? And he thought it

238
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:12,080
Speaker 2: could work for him basically, So we ended up going going.

239
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 1: Down that path and that was the first product.

240
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 2: The next product was he always didn't want to create

241
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 2: something from scratch, and the next product was a Tekilla product,

242
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,199
Speaker 2: which was an acquisition, but again was totally driven by

243
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 2: something he wanted to do and something he had vetted

244
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 2: out and wanted to launch.

245
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 3: What I read like the history of like soraka names

246
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 3: like Nick Stoor him come up and I know he

247
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 3: was part of the hypnotic movement?

248
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 1: Yes, and then was is he part of it?

249
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 3: Was he part of the team originally that was the

250
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 3: acquisition part with us.

251
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was in day one at the acquisition level.

252
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 2: But I think immediately, you know, he was on that

253
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 2: list of people we need like day two to go,

254
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 2: you know, promote the brain, And I mean I picked that.

255
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 2: Another thing, I'm not going to give all the secrets

256
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 2: because I know the book is coming.

257
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 1: The book is coming. The book is coming for sure.

258
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 2: But another thing, you know, uh, you know, Showing was

259
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 2: always focused on was.

260
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 1: Not playing fair.

261
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 2: So how do I use my celebrity to catapult something

262
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 2: in a unique way? How do I do things that

263
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 2: other people can't do to catapult my brands uniquely? And

264
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:32,079
Speaker 2: that was the approach with you know, with Sorak, is

265
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 2: that I have to really own the lifestyle and I'm

266
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 2: gonna do it, you know, unfairly. I'm gonna go get

267
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 2: every celebrity friend I have every but not only that,

268
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 2: but every lifestyle person in each market. You know, who's

269
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 2: the person on the radio, who's the receptionist that just

270
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 2: knows everybody? Who are the party throwers in each market.

271
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go lock all of them down. Create ambassadors,

272
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:05,440
Speaker 2: you know, just a rock DJs, you know, creates boys,

273
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 2: rock girls.

274
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 1: How am I going to lock down the lifestyle.

275
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 3: It's like that they turned from the nineties era of

276
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 3: making the million dollar video to the sixty second commercial

277
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 3: that feels like the million dollar video.

278
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 1: So he's in the helicopters. He's like James Bondo, like Shot.

279
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 1: He likes to call him Black Season. Well most of

280
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,000

282
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 6: that lifestyle too.
