Yes, 0:00:51.080 --> 0:00:54.000 this is not your first time, second time I've been here, 0:00:54.040 --> 0:00:59.440 but I love you all right. We was just talking 0:00:59.480 --> 0:01:02.320 off came right before we started about the lensa app. 0:01:03.000 --> 0:01:06.400 The Apple turns your simple pictures into literal works of art. 0:01:06.880 --> 0:01:12.399 And you already did it. You haven't yet got seven bucks, right, 0:01:12.520 --> 0:01:14.560 you gotta do it's it's a free trial and then 0:01:14.600 --> 0:01:17.039 you gotta pay seven dollars and give you two photos 0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:21.040 for seven bucks. And it takes about forty minutes. I 0:01:21.120 --> 0:01:23.200 just did it with my dad, and I swear the 0:01:23.360 --> 0:01:26.120 art is crazy. Yeah, this how would be if I 0:01:26.200 --> 0:01:28.720 was an astronaut. I was against it until you guys 0:01:28.760 --> 0:01:30.520 just made it kind of fun. You feed it ten 0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:33.600 photos and and you'll never get the same photo twice. 0:01:33.920 --> 0:01:35.360 I might do it again with my pops and do 0:01:35.400 --> 0:01:38.720 another another two hundred. I pretty wondered how these app 0:01:39.080 --> 0:01:42.320 like how something blows up overnight like that. Yeah, it 0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:45.240 just came out of nowhere to nowhere. Well, you know, 0:01:46.200 --> 0:01:48.880 I think what I think happened was I think the 0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:54.040 company debuted at Art Basel. That's what I think, because 0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:57.520 everybody kept talking about it at Art Bassel, and I 0:01:57.600 --> 0:02:00.760 think that was very smart, and it because their AI 0:02:00.880 --> 0:02:03.360 generated photos and I was like, everybody was like where 0:02:03.400 --> 0:02:06.280 they getting as art art bassl art Bassil And then 0:02:06.400 --> 0:02:08.200 I was like, okay, they must have dropped it, or 0:02:08.440 --> 0:02:10.239 they must have talked about it the art Bassil and 0:02:10.280 --> 0:02:13.160 then that's smartest, smartest hell if they did that, yeah 0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:14.880 that's what it is. Or somebody started using it there 0:02:14.880 --> 0:02:16.560 because I saw people posting my art bass and I 0:02:16.600 --> 0:02:18.560 was like, where people getting all these different virtu of 0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:20.799 these photos and says Ai, it's like AI art and 0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:22.519 I was like, Okay, that's dope. So I've seen a 0:02:22.560 --> 0:02:25.359 couple of people that the photos look terrible listen or 0:02:25.440 --> 0:02:30.720 they don't look like look like thank giving the right photo. Well, 0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:35.760 did you guys see Keki Palmer is pregnant. Yes, I 0:02:35.760 --> 0:02:39.480 didn't even know if she was in a relationship. Yeah, yeah, 0:02:40.480 --> 0:02:43.720 she's been in the relation. You know. That's the absolute 0:02:43.760 --> 0:02:45.919 homie that. She's one of the first artists I worked with. 0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:48.079 I actually produced a record of her debut album on 0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:52.440 atlant Stop. The sweetest person. She got cool vibes every time. 0:02:52.600 --> 0:02:55.720 I love her ascension, I love her ride like like 0:02:56.160 --> 0:02:59.840 she's the woman she's become. She's grown into herself, confident, 0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:01.600 all the people she's doing. I'd love to see it 0:03:01.600 --> 0:03:04.799 because you know, sometimes people don't grow up, right. I 0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:06.359 was just about to say that at the camera. I 0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:08.000 was just about to say that people that grow up 0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:10.959 and kids as kids in front of us, and I 0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:15.239 believe it a little cool because it's tough to be. 0:03:18.480 --> 0:03:21.280 But she has done a great job. Okay, I'm gonna 0:03:21.520 --> 0:03:24.679 says she's single. Guys, did you see her Twitter? I 0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:27.240 don't believe. I think it's for promotion. I think it's 0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:29.880 for promotion too. To the Twitter and how she reposting. 0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:32.959 You know everybody you know with the heartbro, this is 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:35.720 not real what you guys are saying. I'm already is 0:03:35.840 --> 0:03:37.760 not single man. She was just on the show. She 0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:40.000 was confessing her love for this man. You think that 0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:42.200 she said when he gets out of jail. She's not. 0:03:42.360 --> 0:03:47.080 She's gonna shut everything down. She's staying down because her 0:03:47.160 --> 0:03:50.560 boyfriend is in jail for a time, but for prison, 0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:53.920 I'm sorry, a very long time. Okay, So why she 0:03:54.000 --> 0:03:57.080 single all of a sudden, I don't know. Oh, okay. 0:03:57.480 --> 0:03:59.960 Nike officially drops Kyrie. What do you guys think about 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:03.760 y'all know he has a very popular signature. Shoot a 0:04:03.760 --> 0:04:06.480 lot of the young ballers for real, that ball and 0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:10.600 who they always use Kyrie Irvin signature Shoo was really 0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:13.400 good for agile guards. What do you guys think about this? 0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:16.480 You're not gonna answer, sir. I mean it's unfortunate, but 0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:18.960 I mean it's the it's the world we live in. 0:04:19.080 --> 0:04:23.520 I think. UM. I always say free speech isn't really free. Um, 0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:27.599 their consequences and so every he didn't say anything. Everybody 0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:31.720 has the right to retweeted. He didn't say nothing here. 0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:35.640 A tweet and a retweet is saying something though. Yeah, 0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:38.560 I mean, here's the thing. I think it's unfortunate because 0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:41.839 I feel like, and I'm not gonna I am gonna 0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:44.320 blame this on Kanye. He wouldn't have posted that. If 0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:46.560 Kanye would have never said what he said, Kyrie would 0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:49.440 have never shared that link. And you know, it's not 0:04:49.520 --> 0:04:51.040 like he just woke up and said I'm a post 0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:53.920 he broke he Brews to me grows just you know, 0:04:54.120 --> 0:04:56.680 do that and I'm not. You know, It's just unfortunate 0:04:56.720 --> 0:05:00.000 that all this this Kanye stuff is just sweeping people up, 0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:02.520 been to a bunch of mess. Yeah, Kanye is definitely 0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:05.000 taking over the media. I mean I feel like, you know, 0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:07.360 I feel like nowadays, these companies just try to find 0:05:07.400 --> 0:05:13.279 any way to save money. I feel like, I feel 0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:16.440 like if you say anything, if you you know, if 0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:19.600 you trip over the wrong baby or anybody, they're gonna 0:05:19.600 --> 0:05:22.120 be like, yeah, we're you're getting dropped. Yeah. Well, I 0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:27.159 mean this is what I want to talk about real quick. 0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:32.000 We often say that we get penalized for saying things 0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:34.120 in the media and then people get you know, lose 0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:37.160 their deals and stuff like that. But I think there 0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:39.400 are just as many, just as many of those we see. 0:05:39.920 --> 0:05:43.160 We see people lose their jobs and corporations that call 0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:45.760 people the N word or use racial story like somebody 0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:49.119 Jess got somebody Jess got fired. I was gonna share 0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:50.880 it too. They like like the girl that told the 0:05:50.960 --> 0:05:54.000 uber driver like he was a slave moving for life, 0:05:54.040 --> 0:05:56.400 and I think she got fired. While remember the girl 0:05:56.480 --> 0:05:58.600 and the girl in college. I can't remember what college 0:05:58.640 --> 0:06:00.720 she was calling. She was drunk, it was called, and 0:06:00.760 --> 0:06:02.280 she got kicked out of school. She got out of 0:06:02.279 --> 0:06:06.520 the school. They're repercussions free, it's free, but they're repercussions 0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:08.400 to the things that you say. It's definitely a no 0:06:08.520 --> 0:06:12.520 nonsense society. That popular radio media company, one of the 0:06:12.720 --> 0:06:19.280 advertisement GMS or UM presidents got in trouble for racist remarks. 0:06:19.920 --> 0:06:23.360 But were they recorded, Oh yeah, they were recording. I 0:06:23.440 --> 0:06:26.600 feel like a lot of times, like I understand your 0:06:26.640 --> 0:06:28.360 point of view, but I also feel like a lot 0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:32.160 of times you only see these terminations because it's recorded. Well, 0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:36.719 look at how look at brown and took for them 0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:40.040 to take action because it happened two weeks prior to 0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:44.039 on all the blogs. You know, So to your point. Yeah, 0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:46.680 I see that. Yeah, it's almost like we gotta fight 0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:49.640 for justice. Is like you know, when you have to, 0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:52.000 you have to. There's so much that goes on in 0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:56.040 the media that there's there's plenty of stories like these 0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:59.080 and then something just get highlighted and they become the 0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:01.960 point of convert station. But there's plenty of people that 0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:05.600 deserve justice and they're just not getting the same attention. So, um, 0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:08.360 it helps. It helps when we spread the word through 0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:11.800 social media about situations like that, like somebody losing their 0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:17.120 life hanging out with your friends, I will say. Um. 0:07:17.320 --> 0:07:20.640 And now these days, I think it's different because I 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:23.120 grew up and there wasn't no social media. Social media 0:07:23.200 --> 0:07:27.240 was created by my generation. So my kids are growing 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:31.480 up with a social media. So it's actually a teaching 0:07:31.640 --> 0:07:35.080 moment with me with my kids because I have to 0:07:35.200 --> 0:07:38.200 explain to them how to deal with social media and 0:07:38.440 --> 0:07:42.280 bots and trolls and negative with marks. Because we didn't 0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:43.560 have to deal with that. We just dealt with what 0:07:43.720 --> 0:07:45.320 was in front of us in the physical. But now 0:07:45.440 --> 0:07:50.720 you can literally get stressed out by comments. Yeah, like 0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:53.560 you can literally people. I mean I wouldn't get stressed 0:07:53.560 --> 0:07:55.120 out because that's not how I was raised. I didn't. 0:07:55.240 --> 0:07:57.400 I wasn't raised on social media. But people are getting 0:07:57.440 --> 0:08:04.000 stressed out by getting trolled and negative remarks against them 0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:08.360 on social media. But but I understand that because if 0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:11.000 you got to fight at school my generation, only people 0:08:11.000 --> 0:08:13.560 a school knew about it. It was three thirty and 0:08:13.640 --> 0:08:15.760 that was it. You talked about heard about you heard 0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:17.480 about it, you talk about on the buve. Oh man, 0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:23.800 Now it lives forever and a lot. And honestly, this 0:08:23.920 --> 0:08:26.200 is something that I get shared in texts. This is 0:08:26.280 --> 0:08:28.480 something that I thought about, and I say this and 0:08:28.640 --> 0:08:30.320 I'm not I'm not saying this may be the reason 0:08:30.400 --> 0:08:32.080 it's so fortunate happened. But I think that's a lot 0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:34.520 of times why these kids choose and higher level of 0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:37.440 violence and fighting because they don't want to lose. They 0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:41.719 don't want to lose beyond world star. And I think 0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:43.559 that's what these kids are doing, is like these kids 0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:46.520 would rather pull out guns and solve their problems rather 0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:49.880 than my My my dad said, put your dukes up 0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:51.960 and just handle it. And if you take a fade, 0:08:52.000 --> 0:08:53.800 you take a fade. But now the fade lives, and 0:08:53.840 --> 0:08:55.600 people like, oh, you got your aunts whipped in up. 0:08:55.920 --> 0:08:59.559 People can't help the embarrassment anymore. And these kids are 0:08:59.640 --> 0:09:02.640 being talk you know, with this music and the internet, 0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:06.120 they're talk you got to shoot at the ops. Yeah, 0:09:06.440 --> 0:09:09.120 rappers don't say you gotta fight the ops, so you 0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:12.280 gotta shoot the ops. Not only that, it's gonna desensitized, 0:09:12.640 --> 0:09:16.920 it doesn't even face anybody. Yes, speaking of viral deon, 0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:21.440 Sanders offered was offered a twenty five twenty nine point 0:09:21.720 --> 0:09:26.240 five million dollars deal, but the Colorado Athletic director admits 0:09:26.600 --> 0:09:29.200 they don't have the money yet. What do you guys 0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:33.080 think about Dion Sanders leaving Jackson State to go to Colorado. 0:09:33.320 --> 0:09:36.679 This is a blessing and we've only just begun. Wait, 0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:38.400 but they ain't got the money in Colorado yet. They too, 0:09:39.360 --> 0:09:42.600 they bet on him, said they will recoup it later. Well, 0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:44.440 I mean, you're not gonna get all that money. They 0:09:44.559 --> 0:09:48.760 got the money five million dollars a year, right, yeah, 0:09:48.960 --> 0:09:51.679 something like that. Why people mad that he left went 0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:54.080 in He sold the big dream. Now, if you paid 0:09:54.080 --> 0:09:56.400 any attention, you knew the dream he was selling wasn't possible. 0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:58.400 But he sold it and he got people to believe it, 0:09:58.520 --> 0:10:00.160 and then each other to do some left, So my 0:10:00.280 --> 0:10:03.280 wife went to an HBCU and over the weekend we 0:10:03.360 --> 0:10:07.560 had a very aggressive debate, and she was just saying, 0:10:07.720 --> 0:10:11.000 you know, from her aspect, a lot of people from 0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:15.080 the HBCU culture that went to an HBCU, they would 0:10:15.120 --> 0:10:18.160 have loved to see him finish. Has some kids go 0:10:18.280 --> 0:10:20.520 to the league, stuff like that. She said. She was 0:10:20.520 --> 0:10:22.959 speaking because she has like a group chatting her and 0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:26.480 her friends all went to HBCUs. She was just saying 0:10:26.559 --> 0:10:29.720 that it kind of bothered her because the HBCU community 0:10:29.840 --> 0:10:31.839 is just kind of like more like a family orient thing, 0:10:32.320 --> 0:10:36.599 and Dion treated his decision like a business And I 0:10:36.720 --> 0:10:38.319 was trying to explain to her, like I went to 0:10:38.360 --> 0:10:41.960 a p W y on Trust scholarship. I don't necessarily 0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:46.439 know the HBCU lifestyle and how he is more like 0:10:46.520 --> 0:10:49.760 a family from what I'm hearing, but I do know 0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:53.640 that Deon Sanders is freaking Dion Sanders, and he treated 0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:56.040 this decision like a business move. Who else is gonna 0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:58.480 come in now and do what he did. I feel 0:10:58.480 --> 0:11:01.200 like he did a great job coaching, and I also 0:11:01.440 --> 0:11:03.280 feel like he did a great job for the community 0:11:03.320 --> 0:11:05.400 and everything that he was doing. But It's like, man, 0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:07.160 if you had an opportunity to get a bag, man, 0:11:07.200 --> 0:11:10.120 you better go get that bag. And he's putting his 0:11:10.240 --> 0:11:12.400 kids in a better position to try to go to 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:16.280 the league. You know, It's it's really hard, uh, you know, 0:11:16.440 --> 0:11:18.000 to go to the league when you're going to the 0:11:18.160 --> 0:11:20.199 HBCU colleges. You know what I'm saying that I'm just 0:11:20.320 --> 0:11:22.599 keeping one hunted. Like if you watch sports and you 0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:25.400 know most of those guys went to a you know, 0:11:25.480 --> 0:11:29.079 a big college d one. So I feel like what 0:11:29.200 --> 0:11:31.599 he did was just ultimate decisions based on you know, 0:11:31.840 --> 0:11:34.280 his family and a business move that he took. Because 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:37.079 let's be honest, we all know Dion Sander is trying 0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:39.440 to be an NFL coach. When you played for the NFL, 0:11:39.920 --> 0:11:42.760 the lifespan of the NFL players probably maybe eight years 0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:45.839 years five years if you're running back, right, and so 0:11:46.400 --> 0:11:48.439 it's over after that, and you gotta figure out what 0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:50.760 you're gonna do with your life, right, And I think 0:11:50.880 --> 0:11:54.839 Dion was very passionate about highlighting h b c U 0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:57.120 s I think he brought like it was a crazy 0:11:57.120 --> 0:11:58.559 amount of money that he brought to the city of 0:11:58.679 --> 0:12:01.559 Jackson just by being there. The city of City of Jackson. 0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:03.280 By being there, then he got them like a new 0:12:03.360 --> 0:12:09.480 training facility, a new locker room, back to and so 0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:14.160 one thing I know about Dion is he's a competitor. 0:12:14.920 --> 0:12:17.559 And what I think everybody's missing is the fact that 0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:20.719 I think he stepped in this position and said I'm 0:12:20.760 --> 0:12:23.760 a pretty damn good coach. And they're probably people saying, yeah, 0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:27.640 but it's it's stay go do it somewhere else. And 0:12:27.720 --> 0:12:32.800 I think in Colorado was one and whatever, they were horrible, right, 0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:35.640 And I think I think this is I think this 0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:39.080 is giving him a second act, like he's Dion Sanders 0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:42.240 the coach, And I think you're right. I think he 0:12:42.320 --> 0:12:45.400 will wind up probably wanted to go to the NFL, 0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:47.079 but he's like, I'm but I'm doing it like this. 0:12:47.160 --> 0:12:49.600 I'm starting from the bottom. I starting HBCUs got too 0:12:49.600 --> 0:12:52.120 back to back titles. I'm gonna go to Colorado, see 0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:54.280 what I do there, and then if I wanted to 0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:56.360 getting a job in NFL as an NFL coach, I 0:12:56.360 --> 0:12:58.439 wind up doing that. And that's It's he's fifty five 0:12:58.520 --> 0:13:00.800 years old. I mean, you're life has to have purpose. 0:13:01.440 --> 0:13:06.960 What do you want them to do right now? But Again, 0:13:07.800 --> 0:13:11.040 I do understand where the hurt comes to. The hurt 0:13:11.160 --> 0:13:13.520 is coming from because it was such a great thing 0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:15.960 that he has been doing. People would like to see 0:13:16.040 --> 0:13:19.000 a longer a longer tenure. But this is what I say. 0:13:19.160 --> 0:13:21.720 I don't think that Dion Sanders is not the only 0:13:21.840 --> 0:13:24.480 person that can do that. Correct. There are dozens of 0:13:25.400 --> 0:13:29.160 NFL greers. They are When Dion did that, I feel 0:13:29.160 --> 0:13:31.160 like all them should have spread out to all the HBCU. 0:13:31.360 --> 0:13:35.320 And this is all I'm saying. This is Dion damn Sanders. Y'all. 0:13:35.480 --> 0:13:37.880 This man played for the Falcons and the Braves and 0:13:37.960 --> 0:13:41.200 did a great job playing at both. Played baseball Hall, 0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:43.480 he played in the World Series, he got a Super Bowl, 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:46.160 he got two Super Bowl Championships. He had his own 0:13:46.240 --> 0:13:49.040 shoes like he's one of the best athletes ever to 0:13:49.200 --> 0:13:52.599 walk the planet. Okay, let's not act like this is this. 0:13:52.880 --> 0:13:55.120 This is not this is some regular Joe blow. This 0:13:55.240 --> 0:14:00.880 is Deon Sanders. Move on. He should said that jazz 0:14:01.000 --> 0:14:03.800 right to and you gotta think about it too. He's 0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:05.760 gotta think about it too. You got to pick him 0:14:05.800 --> 0:14:17.520 in the jet, sent the jet. He came with honest intention. 0:14:18.320 --> 0:14:20.880 He would coached for three seasons. The average tenure of 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:23.440 a college coach is three to five years, So it's 0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:25.880 not like any you know, it's not like he's it's 0:14:25.880 --> 0:14:27.720 out of the ordinary for someone to coach somewhere for 0:14:27.800 --> 0:14:31.040 three years and leave. And he went back to back championships. 0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:32.400 I was like, what more do I need to do? 0:14:32.840 --> 0:14:36.080 I'm getting on that jet. You know that yet? You 0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:38.680 know that jet? And he's he's literally and before we 0:14:38.760 --> 0:14:41.120 go to commotional, he literally is gonna go God them 0:14:41.400 --> 0:14:45.240 take He's literally invading Colorado. And guess what do you 0:14:45.320 --> 0:14:48.280 know where he's coaching at Guys ever been in older Colorado? 0:14:51.400 --> 0:14:55.480 Is the mascot, the buffaloes or whatever it is. Man, 0:14:55.720 --> 0:14:57.960 you know Boulder, Colorado where they filmed Mark and Mindy 0:14:58.000 --> 0:15:02.920 in the seventies. He already has some confirmed recruits.

He was DJ and live from here. This 0:16:56.000 --> 0:16:58.960 is a dope app, UM, and I encourage everybody to 0:16:59.720 --> 0:17:01.960 down little to app and then participate in a because 0:17:02.000 --> 0:17:05.399 you have the same thing that UH clubhouse has. You 0:17:05.480 --> 0:17:08.800 have the same thing that uh Instagram has and Snapchat, 0:17:09.359 --> 0:17:12.399 a ticktok and TikTok. Yeah, all the apps is that 0:17:12.560 --> 0:17:19.440 our people. And you can have subscribers. Can you break 0:17:19.480 --> 0:17:23.960 down the paying part because I have free to use, 0:17:24.040 --> 0:17:26.760 free to download, free to use UM. But you can 0:17:26.840 --> 0:17:29.440 follow someone that you can also subscribe to the same 0:17:29.560 --> 0:17:31.920 person for four ninety nine a month. And when I 0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:35.280 tell everybody is subscriptions are about to take over the globe. 0:17:35.920 --> 0:17:38.840 And if you're not monetizing your content today, five years 0:17:38.880 --> 0:17:41.359 from now, you're gonna regret you didn't start today because 0:17:41.400 --> 0:17:43.360 you're gonna be out earned by somebody that is less 0:17:43.400 --> 0:17:46.080 talented than you are has simply decided to do so. 0:17:47.240 --> 0:17:50.000 And so it's so simple, like like everything that you 0:17:50.080 --> 0:17:53.600 see Instagram doing with subscription, we we pioneered that. Fan 0:17:53.680 --> 0:17:56.280 Base is the first app that allow you allowed you 0:17:56.400 --> 0:17:59.520 to subscribe to another person via in that purchase. No 0:17:59.640 --> 0:18:01.960 app that before fan Base. Yeah, I definitely saw that, 0:18:02.040 --> 0:18:05.840 and then I saw Instagram. They have to they're afraid 0:18:05.920 --> 0:18:08.560 because I mean, you know, black culture is the economic 0:18:08.600 --> 0:18:11.879 engine of social media. Hello, it's it's the culture that 0:18:12.080 --> 0:18:15.000 generates the views, which creates the opportunity for them the 0:18:15.040 --> 0:18:18.440 place ads in between those views and make a billion 0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:20.480 dollars in a year, which is what Facebook may last 0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:23.399 year between Instagram and Facebook and ads und billion. But 0:18:23.680 --> 0:18:25.240 how much did they get back to the hood boom? 0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:28.320 I just I just created my account that quick. So 0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:31.639 for you now again, I've been getting my DJ friends 0:18:31.720 --> 0:18:33.920 to come and join the app. And one thing that 0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:36.280 they all like about fan bases they don't get kicked 0:18:36.320 --> 0:18:39.840 off when you live, right, What is the difference between 0:18:39.920 --> 0:18:43.159 getting kicked off on live and then Instagram kicking you 0:18:43.240 --> 0:18:45.680 off live? A couple of reasons to see why. One, 0:18:46.200 --> 0:18:49.040 if you think about it, like what money does Instagram 0:18:49.119 --> 0:18:51.920 make by allowing you to go live? They have to 0:18:52.040 --> 0:18:55.159 pay to license all that music based on their monthly 0:18:55.200 --> 0:18:58.280 active users, so they got to cut a check to 0:18:58.400 --> 0:19:01.520 pay for that. So so Instagram got two billion monthly 0:19:01.560 --> 0:19:04.400 active users, right, so that means they got to pay 0:19:04.520 --> 0:19:07.440 to have all that music play. So they're like, we're 0:19:07.440 --> 0:19:09.200 not even making any money. It's a free service that 0:19:09.240 --> 0:19:12.359 we provide for fan base. We have the same licenses 0:19:12.480 --> 0:19:14.600 with all the pr oh so b M, I ASCAP, 0:19:14.680 --> 0:19:17.960 C sex, so can GMR DJ to your heart's content. 0:19:18.080 --> 0:19:19.920 And we pay based off our monthly act of users. 0:19:20.359 --> 0:19:23.880 And we're monetized, so we can still afford to pay 0:19:23.920 --> 0:19:26.640 for those licenses. Why do you call the fan base? 0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:30.240 You know what? I don't even I mean think, Well, okay, 0:19:30.440 --> 0:19:32.520 the reason why I called it fan base was because 0:19:33.040 --> 0:19:35.840 there are two things that I recognize. Everyone is a 0:19:35.920 --> 0:19:41.199 fan of something, and everyone has a base. And that's 0:19:41.240 --> 0:19:42.879 what really made me think about it, because it's like, 0:19:42.960 --> 0:19:47.160 you know, people that follow you on social media, follow 0:19:47.200 --> 0:19:50.360 you passively like a magazine at a grocery store order 0:19:50.520 --> 0:19:54.720 nosy or their haters, right, but that five percent is 0:19:54.760 --> 0:19:57.400 your fan base. They rock with you. And if those 0:19:57.440 --> 0:19:59.440 people subscribe to you, Let's say like I al, I say, 0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:02.119 five thousand people subscribe to you on a fan base, right, 0:20:02.680 --> 0:20:05.520 you get half the subscription revenue, which is two thousand 0:20:05.520 --> 0:20:08.160 and fifty cents, same as like twitch, prime and YouTube. 0:20:08.240 --> 0:20:11.600 So think about five thousand people subscribe you as twelve thousand, 0:20:11.640 --> 0:20:13.920 five hundred a hundred fifty thousand dollars a year. It's 0:20:13.920 --> 0:20:17.520 more than Americans making a year all tickets five thousand people. 0:20:18.000 --> 0:20:20.520 If you have a million followers, you have fifty thousand fans, 0:20:20.960 --> 0:20:22.680 and those people will pay you a hundred twenty five 0:20:22.680 --> 0:20:24.680 thousands and mother, you make one point five million dollars 0:20:24.760 --> 0:20:26.920 year just off fifty thousand people. I know people with 0:20:27.040 --> 0:20:29.440 thirteen million TikTok followers that don't make a hundred grand 0:20:29.440 --> 0:20:33.520 a year off TikTok. Damn. I'm telling you it's in subscriptions. 0:20:34.000 --> 0:20:36.920 So do you have people on and I did check 0:20:37.000 --> 0:20:39.240 my account. I think I have like sixty bucks in 0:20:39.280 --> 0:20:42.359 there because you got and we probably just paid. We 0:20:42.400 --> 0:20:43.639 paid it the first of very month. If you had 0:20:43.680 --> 0:20:45.560 sixty bucks, you cant pay anything with twenty five hours, 0:20:45.880 --> 0:20:49.400 we pay you. Because what happens is, let's just say 0:20:49.480 --> 0:20:52.040 I can buy hearts. I think I bought hearts and 0:20:52.119 --> 0:20:54.920
