I want 18 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 2: to give a quick background story of how this all 19 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,559 Speaker 2: got started. So first off, my name is Rashad Balau. 20 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 2: For anybody that doesn't know me, but my partner Troy Millings. 21 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 2: So anybody that's been following me for the last year 22 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 2: and a half on Instagram. You know, I post content 23 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 2: about different financial topics, but I kind of take a 24 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 2: different approach to it. You know, I talk about you know, 25 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 2: sports and entertainment, kind of the backstories that a lot 26 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 2: of times people aren't familiar with them may not know, 27 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 2: and also different you know, business models and different businesses 28 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 2: and investments and stuff like that. So Instagram has a 29 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 2: format where you only put up one minute video. So 30 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 2: a lot of people was asking me, you know, when 31 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 2: am I going to do a podcast or you know, 32 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 2: they want an extended version of the conversation. So I 33 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 2: thought that it would be a great idea to have 34 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 2: this podcast. And then when I was thinking about the podcast, 35 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 2: you know, I wanted to have a partner, and my partner, Troy, 36 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 2: I thought would be a perfect pick because he's actually 37 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,679 Speaker 2: somebody that you may not be familiar with if you 38 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 2: follow my Instagram, or you may be familiar with. But 39 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 2: so I teach a financial literacy class to kids, and 40 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 2: he's the one that actually got me involved with that. 41 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,360 Speaker 2: I actually teach his classes, his class that I teach, 42 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 2: and also a lot of the stuff that I post 43 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 2: on Instagram comes from conversations that me and him have 44 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 2: and has been having for a very long time. We 45 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 2: always have conversations about a lot of different stuff, So 46 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 2: I wanted to, you know, share our conversations to the 47 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 2: world and have it a on a on a scale, 48 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 2: so it's not just me and him in his living 49 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 2: room anymore. Yeah, it's put an internet to his So 50 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 2: that's kind of backstory. So Troy, you want to give 51 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 2: your perspective on it. 52 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean pretty much what Rashad is saying is 53 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 3: one hundred percent accurate. We've we've had conversations for so 54 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 3: many years, I think over twenty years of conversations, and 55 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 3: over the past few years, we've seen some of those 56 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 3: conversations turn into realities. 57 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,639 Speaker 4: And it was like we. 58 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 3: Thought the conversations that we were having were almost commonplace. 59 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 3: And what we started to notice is that these conversations 60 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 3: aren't happening, especially in. 61 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 4: Our community and the communities throughout the country. 62 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 3: And that was evident when we saw the content that 63 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 3: you were putting up on your page, and it was 64 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 3: the feedback was just so amazing, like, thank you so 65 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 3: much for the education, and I never knew that, and 66 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 3: we started looking at ourselves like, wait, they didn't know that. 67 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 3: I thought people knew that, So there was definitely a 68 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,119 Speaker 3: need there. And Earn your Legion podcast is now live. 69 00:03:58,200 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 2: Oh we got talk about the name to earn your 70 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 2: leaders anybody that follows me. That's like my hashtag that 71 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 2: I've been using for a while, earning your Lesia. And 72 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 2: Troy actually came up with that hashtag that he thought 73 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 2: that that was a good hash I was trying to 74 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 2: think of something to come up with, and he thought 75 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 2: that that was perfect as far as earning your Lesia. 76 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, man, that that Let's give him the whole story, right, 77 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 3: Like so like the conversation that we said, like that 78 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 3: just happened. From that conversation, it was like you had 79 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 3: just started that. Listen, I have an avenue now through Instagram. 80 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,919 Speaker 4: Let's take them even further back. Let's take it because 81 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 4: part of. 82 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 3: The reason I was like, that's a great idea is 83 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 3: because people miss the hard work that goes prior to 84 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 3: this this moment right here. So we've been in that 85 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 3: classroom in the summers from our program and we'll talk 86 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 3: about the program later on, but for eight years now, 87 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 3: maybe nine years, right, we've been in that classroom and 88 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 3: The original thought was, Hey, I know that finance is 89 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 3: something that. 90 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:52,599 Speaker 4: Is not being taught in. 91 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,679 Speaker 3: School, and I knew that you are a financial advisor 92 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 3: obviously as my best friend, we knew that that too. 93 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 3: We should link those two things, right, Like, you teach finance, 94 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 3: I'm an educator. Let's link it to and at first. 95 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 3: And I think you put that into folks, and I 96 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 3: thought that was really honest with you. It was like, 97 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 3: it's not the easiest thing to do. I think people 98 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 3: under depression. Like if I teach, if I teach kids 99 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 3: and I can teach anybody, or if I've never taught 100 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 3: kids before, I can get in the classroom. 101 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 4: And do it. And you were very honest about that. 102 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,679 Speaker 3: It was like, you know, this is difficult, like this 103 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 3: is not for me, but to your credit, man, you 104 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 3: stuck with it, and now you can see that the 105 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 3: education that you're giving to these kids is something that 106 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 3: they're going to take with them for a long time. 107 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 3: And now the world gets to see it on Instagram 108 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 3: like some of the word we've been doing. But it's 109 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 3: been eight years and that's how your leisure comes comes about. 110 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 2: For sure, for sure. So that's where we're at right now. 111 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 2: To Earn Your Leisure podcasts, And like I said, before 112 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 2: we go into it, the Earn Your Leasure podcast will 113 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 2: be giving you behind the scenes look at financial deals 114 00:05:56,040 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 2: and the entertainment, sports business, different fields, and you know, 115 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 2: we're going to try to make it exciting. A lot 116 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 2: of times people have an idea of business that is 117 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 2: boring or over the head. It's not either one. So 118 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 2: that's kind of, you know, the reason why we wanted 119 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 2: to start this, you know, to kind of bring it 120 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 2: to light and make it fun and make it understandable 121 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 2: and make it relatable. So yeah, so let's jump right 122 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 2: into it, jump right into it. So you know, I 123 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 2: took notes. I took notes. I'm prepared. So we're gonna 124 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 2: start with the music industry because both of us are 125 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 2: huge fans. 126 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 3: I think the music raises us, I would say, right, Like, 127 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 3: I think we used to get into debates about did 128 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 3: we learn more from the music did we learn more 129 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 3: from school? And I mean i'd say it's equal, right, 130 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 3: Like some of the lessons that we learned from listening 131 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 3: to Nas and Jay and Big to a certain extent, 132 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 3: we still apply those lessons today. So one of the 133 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 3: things that I heard from one of my favorite albums. 134 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 3: Jay Z's last four or four album was you do 135 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 3: still signing deals still? After all they done stole for real, 136 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 3: after what they did to all Laurence Hill, And I realized, like, 137 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 3: certain generations don't even know who Lauren Hill is, right, Like, 138 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 3: so Miseducation of Lauryn Hill comes out in nineteen eight 139 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 3: ninety eight. We got kids now who are nineteen who 140 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 3: aren't even born, right, so they just know Lauryn Hill 141 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 3: as the woman who kind of dresses funny in their opinion. 142 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 4: But there was some major things that happened with her. 143 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 3: And on your page, I saw that, you know, some 144 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 3: people were wondering, like, hey, what's a What's what's up 145 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 3: with these record deals? 146 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 4: What's a three sixty deal? What does that even mean? 147 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 4: So we're gonna give a fresh poch on what that 148 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 4: is and how that looks. 149 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. So yeah, so when Jay, when Jay said that, 150 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 2: y'all still signing deals for real? So one of the 151 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 2: things he was losing too was the three sixty deal, 152 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 2: right right, So, like you said at a lot of 153 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 2: people have been asking me to make a video about 154 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 2: the three sixty deal, but I just didn't want to 155 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 2: make a you know a one minute clip about it. 156 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 2: I wanted to kind of go into depth about what 157 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 2: the three sixty deal really is because obviously a lot 158 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 2: of people have aspirations of being in the music business 159 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 2: that they want to be producers, artists, singers, whatever. So 160 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 2: it's important for them to have the business knowledge, not 161 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 2: just you know, how to wrap, how to write a song, 162 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 2: or how to shoot a video. You know, there's a 163 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 2: lot of stuff that goes in behind the scenes that 164 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 2: a lot of time people aren't familiar with. So three 165 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 2: sixty deal, three sixty deal, you want you want to 166 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 2: start this off or you want me to start it. 167 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 4: Off, so we can. I'll start it. 168 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 3: So three sixty deal is something that came about in 169 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 3: the early two thousands. Record companies started to realize that 170 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 3: they were losing revenue because of illegal downloads. Right, so 171 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 3: people weren't buying albums because we could just get it 172 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 3: off of I guess napster at that point in LimeWire. 173 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 3: So record companies were like, hey, we're losing money. We 174 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 3: have to figure out a way to earn this money. 175 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 2: Sean Parker, we got to acknowledge for a legend, we can't, 176 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 2: we can't. We can't just take that lately. Sean Parker 177 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 2: changed the game. Absolutely, change the world. 178 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 4: Absolutely. 179 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 2: Anybody not familiar with Sean Parker, he's the guy behind Napster. 180 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 2: Twice you changed the world with Facebook also, absolutely, But Napster, 181 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,439 Speaker 2: they were they the first ones to start ripping music. 182 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 4: I believe, so, man, I believe so. 183 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 3: Like in the late nineties, late nineties, I believe Napster 184 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,559 Speaker 3: comes about. And when we found out about that, it was. 185 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 2: So before Napster, everybody was buying CDs. Go to you 186 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 2: go to Sam Goodie, you go to your local record 187 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 2: store and you buy a CD. 188 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 3: Let's go down a list of those stores that you're 189 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 3: talking about that don't exist, Sam Goodies, cocon Nuts. 190 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 2: For your entertainment, I forgot. 191 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 3: For your entertainment, a bunch of these these these warehouses 192 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 3: that would sell music that don't exist anymore. 193 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 2: Okay, So all right, so Napster comes along. What exactly 194 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 2: the naps to do? 195 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 4: Again? So? 196 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 3: Uh, Napster he figured out a way to get music 197 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 3: illegally and stream it through the internet. 198 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 2: So you could you could you could just get it 199 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 2: from NAP's website. 200 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 3: Right so well, for free, for free, So that that 201 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 3: was the first time we started getting music from. 202 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 2: So that that actually was the first stream right right 203 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 2: as we know it today, right because he was taking 204 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 2: the music and putting it on his website, and then 205 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 2: from the website you can take it. 206 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 3: So it was a listen a data file of just files, right, 207 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 3: And that was the first time it was like direct 208 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 3: to consumer. Right, So now I didn't have to go 209 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 3: to the store to buy the cassette tape, which doesn't exist. 210 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 3: I didn't have to go to start to get the CD. 211 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 3: I'm getting it directly in my home. Not only am 212 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 3: my getting directly in my home, but now I can 213 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 3: get a multitude of artists. Right, I can make my 214 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 3: own mix of songs, right, Like I remember showing people 215 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 3: how to do it, and it was like, oh my gosh, 216 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 3: like this is amazing, Like I can make my own mixtape. 217 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 3: I don't have to waste money anymore. So like, yeah, 218 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 3: that was the first direct to consumer music outlet. 219 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 2: And then okay, so then once the record companies pretty 220 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 2: much shut that down, they hit him with like what 221 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 2: the federal government. Federal government shut down. I'm sure the 222 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 2: record companies played a part. 223 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 4: Absolutely. 224 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 2: They d him on two hundred million dollars suits. 225 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,239 Speaker 3: It was crazy copies, all types of copyright infringement lawsuits. 226 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 3: But after I mean, that doesn't stop it, right, like 227 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 3: that idea, you can't, No, you can't, you can't. You 228 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,559 Speaker 3: can't stop energy. 229 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 2: There it is, you can't stop energy because once it's 230 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 2: out there, you can try to contain it. But it's 231 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 2: like that the doors. 232 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,559 Speaker 4: Open at that point you can't close your eyes to 233 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 4: So once. 234 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 2: They shut down Napster, but the record companies did a 235 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 2: smart thing. Okay, so from Napster we have to go 236 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:41,559 Speaker 2: to Steve Jobs. 237 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 4: No, let's go. Well, there's a few other outlets. 238 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 3: So once Napster starts, then other file sharing services come about. 239 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 3: So then you get a LimeWire, right, and then a 240 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 3: bunch of. 241 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 4: That was still illegal, still illegal, so like he that's 242 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 4: the idea. 243 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 3: Then we get a bunch of other file sharing companies 244 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 3: that come out, and now they're not just sharing music, right, 245 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 3: so like movies. Now they're sharing movies, they're sharing TV shows, 246 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 3: all types of forms of outlet of media. Right, they're 247 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 3: sharing books like you can download a book. So now 248 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,559 Speaker 3: it's like this entire industry has to figure out, how 249 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 3: are we going to stop this? Thing from bleeding, like 250 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 3: this is bleeding. The music industry is bleeding. We're losing 251 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 3: money at an all time rate. How are we gonna 252 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:22,839 Speaker 3: stop it? 253 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 2: So okay, now we're into Steve Jobs in the picture. Okay, 254 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 2: So Steve Jobs has the brilliant idea. Well it's actually 255 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:34,839 Speaker 2: not his idea, but he made it come to. 256 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 4: Life, accepted the idea of the iPod, right. 257 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 2: And then from the iPod came iTunes. 258 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 4: Yeah right, yep. 259 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 2: So with iTunes it's like the first legal streaming service 260 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 2: because now we're paying for it. 261 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:52,439 Speaker 4: Right. 262 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 2: So now he got with all the record companies, the 263 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 2: heads of all the record companies, and said, look, streaming, 264 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 2: and you can't stop streaming, right, but you can make 265 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 2: money off of it. You can be part of it. 266 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 2: Let's come together. I have the platform, you have the music, 267 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 2: we can merge. Now we have iTunes exactly on your iPod. 268 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 2: So now it's legal streaming as we know it today. 269 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 2: And then that's grown to Spotify and title and everything else. 270 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 2: So with that comes the creation of the three sixty deal. Right, 271 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 2: because before record companies, well talk about the record. 272 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 3: Record companies were pretty much basing their revenue off the 273 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 3: sales of albums, right, and off the sale of singles. 274 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 4: Right. 275 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 3: But after those singles, no longer I don't have to 276 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 3: pay for them, I get them for free. 277 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 4: How do we generate money? Right? 278 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,439 Speaker 3: And they knew that their artists were still generating revenue 279 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 3: on top of the album sales. Right, So then they 280 00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 3: go and tour, whether they make in store visits, as 281 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 3: they sell merchandise, they're still generating revenue. 282 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 2: So artists are very resilient people. So once the artists 283 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 2: figured out they wasn't making money selling albums anymore, they 284 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 2: found other revenues to make money, touring, which has been 285 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 2: a revenue stream for years, so they make money off touring. 286 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 2: Then they started merch selling merchandise. Then they started installing pearances, walkthroughs, 287 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 2: all kinds of stuff, right, And so the music became 288 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 2: just the platform they get your name out there, so 289 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 2: you can make money off of all the other different 290 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 2: aspects of it. So when the record companies figured that out, 291 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 2: they say, Okay, the artists are still making money, but 292 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 2: we're not making money anymore because album sales. Nobody's buying albums, 293 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 2: so there's. 294 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 3: No point in now signing a five to seven seven 295 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 3: album year deal. There's no point of it anymore, right, 296 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 3: we might not even get to three albums at this rate. 297 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 4: Right. So the traditional was after. 298 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 3: Seven years and after you've met that obligation, now you're 299 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 3: free to sign at another label or your free design 300 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 3: your own through your own outlet. 301 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 4: That was the traditional way. 302 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 3: And then they said, wait, if they're not selling albums, 303 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 3: how are we going to make money? 304 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 2: So and how they're going to make money, they decided 305 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 2: to enter the three sixty deal. So the three sixty 306 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 2: deal is when that's why it's called three sixty because 307 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 2: they get a piece of everything, right, So, they get 308 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 2: a piece of your streaming, they get a piece of 309 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 2: your merch, they get a piece of your touring, they 310 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 2: get a piece of sometimes even walkthroughs, club performances, anything, 311 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 2: TV appearances, anything that you do that makes you money 312 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 2: will make them money. They want it. They want a 313 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 2: piece of everything exactly. It's like it's like, what's that 314 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 2: Kings of New York? He said, if if is sold, 315 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 2: so I want, I want. 316 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 4: I want It's still I want in deal. Right. So, 317 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 4: originally they used to give you advance. 318 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 3: If you sign a record contract, you get an advance 319 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 3: and that goes towards you know, the making of your album, 320 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 3: perhaps maybe some of your videos. So they still do 321 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 3: that in the three sixty deal, but now it's like, 322 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 3: all right, we got to recruit that. So they might 323 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 3: give you a bigger upfront advance, but they're still trying 324 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 3: to recruit it through those avenues of income that you 325 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 3: just spoke about. 326 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 4: It is the I one end deal I want in. 327 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 4: You're making a dollar I want in. 328 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, so now now people are taking a more 329 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 2: independent route right, right, because they realize that with streaming, 330 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 2: you don't necessarily need the record label.

You 503 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 3: don't even have a CD player in your car, right, Like, 504 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 3: it doesn't People don't consume music that way. 505 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 2: So, so who's in control of the music industry right now? 506 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 2: Is it? Because I've heard this before that the cell 507 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 2: phone companies are really in position to be the record labels. 508 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 2: If you think about it, nothing moves without a cell phone, right, right, 509 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 2: So what would stop Sprint, Verizon or Apple directly to 510 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 2: just cut the record label out completely and make deals 511 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:16,679 Speaker 2: with artists. 512 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 4: I think that's where we're headed. 513 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 2: That's what we're headed. I think that's where we're at 514 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 2: right now, because the artists are still record labels are 515 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 2: still there. But what what what good is a record 516 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 2: label at this point where a lot of time people 517 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 2: don't even listen to radio anymore. 518 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 4: Right, So, like that's important too, Like so Steve Stout. 519 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 3: And again if you don't know if Steve Stout is 520 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 3: and you're in entertainment, definitely somebody you should research. His 521 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,360 Speaker 3: book The Tanning of America is amazing, so must read. 522 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 3: But his company, the United Masters, is combating. Then they're saying, look, 523 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 3: you don't need the record label, We're giving you your Masters. 524 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 3: And what he has is, I mean he's established relationships 525 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 3: throughout his career. I think he started with Public Enemy 526 00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 3: in the eighties, right, he was. 527 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 4: Like a tour manager, or. 528 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,919 Speaker 3: He might have been like an assistant to the tour 529 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 3: manager for Public Aademy in the eighties. But throughout his 530 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 3: career he's established relationship with artists, and he's established relationships 531 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 3: with corporate America. And his claim to fame, like his 532 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 3: thing that he holds that on is like he combines 533 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,199 Speaker 3: those twos, so like you have entertainment and you have 534 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 3: corporate America.

So if 665 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 3: you buy my album, you get a ticket to the 666 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 3: show and merchandise. 667 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 4: Right, And it was like. 668 00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, like this guy, this is who does 669 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 3: he think he is right present day, Travis Scott. This 670 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 3: is the same thing, right, And then it's like, wait, no, 671 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 3: that doesn't count. How does that count? He's selling t shirts, 672 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 3: he's not selling albums, right, Like you know this that 673 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 3: shouldn't count. Nikki was right, she was mad, right, but 674 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 3: like no, he's just he's doing what's been done and 675 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 3: it's worked. It's worked because did number one thing is 676 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 3: did the consumer get the product? 677 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 4: Yeah? 678 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 3: They got the product and it got some merch too, 679 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 3: which they wear at his concerts that will sell out, right, 680 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 3: So like so that comparable of like hey, Prince did that, 681 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 3: Travis is doing it today, like Jay did that. Let's 682 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 3: see who comes up with the division to say, all right, 683 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go that route now too. 684 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think that'd be interesting. That's where that's where 685 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 2: I personally see his headed. I may be wrong, but 686 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 2: because like I said, I mean, your cell phone is 687 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 2: the most powerful thing in the world, right, Yeah, And 688 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 2: everything that you need pretty much in life, you can 689 00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 2: access via your cell phone. So being that they had 690 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 2: that much power, I think that it's time for the 691 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 2: artists smart enough, Yeah, smart enough? 692 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 4: Man? 693 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 3: Just really quick back to the eight boogie thing like 694 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 3: and it's just that I know the headline was like 695 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 3: eight boogie Tales, eight hundred and twenty three albums, but they. 696 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 4: Were like, oh, that's the lowest. 697 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 3: But part of the story too, is like two weeks 698 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:24,320 Speaker 3: ago twenty one Savage was the lowest with three thousand copies, right, 699 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,479 Speaker 3: so like he's had the number one album, he only. 700 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 2: Sold three thousand, So eventually headed to a point like 701 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 2: it'll be two, right or not? 702 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 3: No, there was no physical copies, Like, because you tell 703 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 3: me where to go buy at. 704 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 4: A physical copy? 705 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 2: Can you buy that Walmart? 706 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:41,240 Speaker 4: Maybe maybe they took. 707 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 2: Well, like he said, he didn't even put out physical. 708 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 4: Exactly, So I'm like, where did they even get eight 709 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 4: hundred folk? 710 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 2: Okay? Yeah, all right, all right, all right, So we 711 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:50,879 Speaker 2: talked about music for a little bit. So let's let's 712 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 2: switch topics. Now, let's go into entertainment. Yeah, let's go 713 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:59,239 Speaker 2: into entertainment because it's almost Oscar season. 714 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:00,439 Speaker 4: Yeah, Golden Global season. 715 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 2: Ye, So I want to talk about the Oscars. Yeah, 716 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:10,279 Speaker 2: So obviously what's been going on with the Oscars most 717 00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 2: people have been talking about with the Kevin Hart thing, 718 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 2: right as far as they asked him to do it, 719 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 2: then they found some tweets from a couple of years ago. 720 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 2: Then they kind of took pulled the offer bag. 721 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:23,719 Speaker 4: He's on I'm sorry toy right now. 722 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 2: But then then he apologized and they asked him to 723 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:29,439 Speaker 2: come back, and then he didn't want to come back. 724 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 4: So it was like a whole campaign. 725 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 2: But every year, it seemed like every single year there's 726 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 2: always some controversy with the Oscars the Grammys. Like last 727 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,320 Speaker 2: year it was the last year with Will Smith, with Jada, 728 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 2: they boycotted. 729 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 4: The Grammys the Oscars, maybe because he. 730 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 2: Didn't get nominated. She wanted him to get nominated and 731 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 2: he didn't get nominated, and it was like a boycott. 732 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 4: I see it, well, I see it more happening in the 733 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:55,239 Speaker 4: music right. 734 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 2: Well. The thing about it was it was that movie 735 00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 2: when he was the doctor for the Football Player. Yeah, yeah, 736 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 2: and she had a whole thing and she was boycotting 737 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 2: because she was like, you know, we're not getting represented, 738 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:07,520 Speaker 2: we're not getting enough Oscar right, and every single thing. 739 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 2: It's always a big deal. 740 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:11,280 Speaker 3: So then they try to take steps, Oh well, instead 741 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,800 Speaker 3: of five people being nominated, we'll make it to eight people. 742 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 4: We'll make it to eight films being no exactly. 743 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 2: So going back to the rap line. Twenty years ago, 744 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 2: Jay Z had a legendary song called money Ain't a Thing, Yeah, 745 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,240 Speaker 2: And in that song he has the line where he says, 746 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:34,319 Speaker 2: save all the accolades, just to do right. So that's 747 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,360 Speaker 2: an interesting lyric to me because it feels like, especially 748 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 2: our culture, we need validation more than money. It's like, 749 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 2: it's it's interesting, right we have. 750 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 4: We want to fit like we've made it. 751 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 2: We always wanted like that validation of I need an Oscar, 752 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 2: I need a Grammy, I need a Golden glove globe. 753 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:57,680 Speaker 2: But it's like, why do you need that? So we 754 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:03,479 Speaker 2: did the research actually on the time ten highest paid 755 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:07,799 Speaker 2: actors in twenty and seventeen from on Forbes list. And 756 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 2: the interesting thing about it is that out of the 757 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 2: top ten actors, only one of them has an Oscar. 758 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 4: Right, so. 759 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:21,320 Speaker 2: Chris Evans was number ten.

A lot of films, a lot of films. 828 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,839 Speaker 4: They all look like that's the one that doesn't look 829 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 4: like the same. 830 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,439 Speaker 3: Every film that he seems like he's in he's jumping 831 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 3: out of a building or he's like swimming with an. 832 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:46,360 Speaker 2: Allegy went Oscar for Jumanji. 833 00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:50,799 Speaker 3: Think no, he will win our Kids Herds Kids' Choice Awards, Nickelodeon. 834 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:51,399 Speaker 4: You'll get that. 835 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:53,359 Speaker 2: The number one on the list. 836 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 4: They're not going to get this one. 837 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 2: George Clooney, who made two hundred and thirty nine million dollars. 838 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:01,359 Speaker 2: Now that's interesting because he does he's the only one 839 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 2: with an Oscar. Yeah, but he it didn't make any 840 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:06,800 Speaker 2: money off of films. 841 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:11,000 Speaker 3: Right, So the Oscar was in two thousand and five, 842 00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 3: I believe, for Sirianna, and then in twenty thirteen for Argo, right. 843 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 2: Right, So he made two hundred and thirty nine million 844 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 2: from selling a tequila company. Yea, yeah, yeah, they sold 845 00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:28,719 Speaker 2: the company for seven hundred million. He made two hundred 846 00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 2: and thirty nine million. 847 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,120 Speaker 3: Off of the company's name is let me get you 848 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 3: George Colin's Company's name? 849 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:38,200 Speaker 4: It is? It is? It is Cosa. 850 00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 2: Migossos now, so so this is interesting. So all right, 851 00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 2: out of the top ten actors, a none of them 852 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 2: are female. That's a different conversation altogether. But one of 853 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:57,640 Speaker 2: them has has an Oscar one right, So of the 854 00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 2: top ten Oscar winning actors of twenty seventeen did not 855 00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 2: have an Oscar. And I've never heard Jackie Chan complain 856 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 2: about not getting oscar. Maybe he has, I just never 857 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,000 Speaker 2: heard it. 858 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:14,080 Speaker 3: The top twenty list. If we extended the list, it 859 00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 3: would only make it too. I think Matt Damon will 860 00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:19,760 Speaker 3: be like number sixteen, and he has one for Goodwill hunting. 861 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 2: So do we want validation or do we want money? 862 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:27,440 Speaker 2: Or do we want people to come see our films. 863 00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 2: We gotta start asking these questions because it's like, ultimately, 864 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 2: I don't understand why, like you people, they've treated you 865 00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 2: bad for how long? And you keep holding out hope 866 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:39,880 Speaker 2: it hurt our hearts that this is going to be 867 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 2: the year like this, this is gonna be the year 868 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:42,399 Speaker 2: where I get treated better. 869 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 3: We watched jay Z Go for eight at the Grammy 870 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:46,399 Speaker 3: and we're like, ah again. 871 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:51,200 Speaker 2: No, It's like I feel like why why, Like you know, 872 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 2: I mean, like why do we care so much about 873 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 2: the validation And it's not like that validation actually really 874 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:02,680 Speaker 2: even means anything financially, because there's a whole list of 875 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 2: people who have won an Oscar and their career went 876 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:08,320 Speaker 2: in the total opposite direction. 877 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,400 Speaker 3: So like the average person, average male, who wins an Oscar, 878 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 3: their average next movie or the next year of income 879 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 3: increases by four million, which is a lot. 880 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 4: But the movies don't do well like they could get 881 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 4: paid to do the movie. 882 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:24,480 Speaker 2: Or even your career, like your career. So these are 883 00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:26,600 Speaker 2: a couple of people that suffered the Oscar curves. 884 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 4: Holle Berry and we love halle Berry. Let's yeah, no 885 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 4: disrespect that he love everybody. 886 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:37,239 Speaker 2: But she wanted for Oscar for monsters. What has she 887 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:37,800 Speaker 2: done since? 888 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 4: So? So she got paid right to do. 889 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 3: I think she got maybe a million dollars right, So 890 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 3: her next film next that next year she put out Catwoman. 891 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:51,520 Speaker 3: Now I'm not sure if people remember that right as 892 00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:55,160 Speaker 3: a legendary movie. But you know what, she's still putting 893 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 3: our movie. She was a part of the original Sony 894 00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:00,960 Speaker 3: X Men. She was storing remember that, Yeah, and then 895 00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 3: Marvel took over that and they said, all right, this 896 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,719 Speaker 3: is x Men now, so she was Storm and x 897 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,759 Speaker 3: Men and then I think even yesterday she put out 898 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:11,399 Speaker 3: a clip she's gonna be in john Wick three. 899 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:13,000 Speaker 4: So she's still working. 900 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:16,080 Speaker 3: But we're not you know, like you would think like 901 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:19,560 Speaker 3: when somebody performs at a high level and gets a Grammy, 902 00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:22,520 Speaker 3: like the next thing is that Oscar ask I'm sorry 903 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:24,879 Speaker 3: they continue that high level of performance and we haven't 904 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:25,319 Speaker 3: seen that. 905 00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 4: We haven't love Cally, Barry Cuba, Jr. Oh Man, he's. 906 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 2: I think his most notable role. So he won the 907 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 2: Oscar for Jerry mcguid. That was twenty five years ago, 908 00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:42,759 Speaker 2: like at least twenty years I was like twenty years 909 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,960 Speaker 2: ago years, Yeah, the only thing I remember for him since. 910 00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 4: In the past. He was great in that. 911 00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 2: I didn't even see it, but I just know he. 912 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:51,960 Speaker 4: Was great in that. 913 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,319 Speaker 3: He might have got nominated for that on Lifetime. No, no, man, 914 00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:57,200 Speaker 3: that was Fax. It was good on that. I thought 915 00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,400 Speaker 3: you were going to say he's known for being in 916 00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 3: the club with of the bucket on this head. 917 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 4: Oh no, we can't forget that. 918 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,759 Speaker 2: His career has not skyrocketed since it has been. 919 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:07,840 Speaker 4: It hasn't. 920 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:13,359 Speaker 2: It hasn't good, Marissa Tomay, you. 921 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 3: Gotta explain that. So Marissa Tomay, people don't even know 922 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 3: who that is. 923 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:16,880 Speaker 2: Who she is? 924 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:17,239 Speaker 4: Right? 925 00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 3: So, like any she originally starts on the Cosby Show. Yeah, 926 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:24,799 Speaker 3: she was on the Cosby Show. 927 00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:26,160 Speaker 2: Was she on the Cosby Show? 928 00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:28,320 Speaker 4: She was a gold looking She's on the Cosby Shows. 929 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:31,279 Speaker 3: That's where she gets her start and then wins an 930 00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 3: Oscar for my cousin Vinnie with Joe Pesci. It's like 931 00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 3: ninety two years ago. Yeah, ninety two and we haven't 932 00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:38,920 Speaker 3: I don't know what have you seen her? 933 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:40,600 Speaker 4: We saw her. 934 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:44,040 Speaker 3: She's in She's Spider Man's mom in The New Spider 935 00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 3: Man's Adrian Brody. Yeah, who is he? He won for 936 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:55,319 Speaker 3: the pianist, I believe what has he done? Since you 937 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:57,440 Speaker 3: know what he did right after that? I think King 938 00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:01,640 Speaker 3: Kong and that was a flyph done since I don't know, 939 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 3: you know. 940 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:06,239 Speaker 2: So, So this just proved my point that we just 941 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:10,239 Speaker 2: named ten actors that made a boatload of money that 942 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:14,319 Speaker 2: will probably never get an Oscar. We just named four 943 00:46:15,239 --> 00:46:18,680 Speaker 2: that one in Oscar that it did nothing for their career. 944 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:22,360 Speaker 2: It actually might even hurt their career. So why we 945 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:25,200 Speaker 2: got to start asking questions like why do we still 946 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:28,320 Speaker 2: hold these awards as such high regard. Of course, everybody 947 00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:32,080 Speaker 2: wants to be acknowledged for their talent, for their contribution 948 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 2: as human it is human nature to be to want 949 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:38,600 Speaker 2: to have some validation. But what is that worth? 950 00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 3: I think that the I mean, if we break down 951 00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:43,520 Speaker 3: the Oscar itself, I mean it's a trophy that costs 952 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:46,960 Speaker 3: four hundred dollars, I think the most valuable thing that 953 00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:50,520 Speaker 3: it does provide is notoriety for the most part. Like 954 00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:53,000 Speaker 3: we can't put a price tag on notoriety, right, So 955 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:56,680 Speaker 3: like there are actors that like, wait, who is this person? 956 00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 4: Or who it brings a tench But. 957 00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,120 Speaker 2: There's actors that won in Oscar that you never. You 958 00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:02,960 Speaker 2: will never know the rock walks into this room right now. 959 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:06,279 Speaker 2: Everybody knows, Righty's true, you'll never They'll probably never win 960 00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:06,720 Speaker 2: an oscar. 961 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:07,319 Speaker 4: This is true. 962 00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 2: Kevin Hart has never won an oscar. True, everybody knows 963 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:11,120 Speaker 2: who he is. 964 00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 4: Right. 965 00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:14,040 Speaker 3: But to the person who doesn't, like you know what 966 00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:17,400 Speaker 3: I mean, like some of these films we've never seen, right, Like, 967 00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:21,120 Speaker 3: every time there's the nominations come out, there's at least 968 00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:22,840 Speaker 3: like out of the five or eight. 969 00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:25,799 Speaker 4: It's like six, and I'm like, when did that even 970 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:28,360 Speaker 4: come out? I never saw that? Right? Like? 971 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:33,160 Speaker 2: So, so the question is, so it accolades just to do, 972 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:35,439 Speaker 2: just to do? Right? Is it that? Do we want? 973 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:35,719 Speaker 4: Do? 974 00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:38,720 Speaker 2: Is it that? Or is it validation at all courts? 975 00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:39,560 Speaker 4: I don't know, man. 976 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 3: I mean if you look at a movie like Black Panther, right, 977 00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:45,239 Speaker 3: like the number three selling. 978 00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:47,480 Speaker 2: Movie exactly, that's a perfect example. So that's gonna be 979 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:47,799 Speaker 2: up this. 980 00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:50,239 Speaker 3: Year, right, it shipped, Well, the nominations will be coming 981 00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:51,399 Speaker 3: out swing for. 982 00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 4: Golden Globes, let's say eight. 983 00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:55,520 Speaker 2: Hypothetically it doesn't win, right, there's gonna be a lot 984 00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:59,960 Speaker 2: of backlash then who cares? It was obviously a great movie. 985 00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:02,680 Speaker 2: It got supported it was the number one movie of 986 00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 2: the year. So that's that's validation, right, right, Like that's 987 00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:09,799 Speaker 2: the validation that you should look for. 988 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:11,640 Speaker 4: Do we need? Like that's what I'm saying. 989 00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:13,160 Speaker 3: It used to me something when you went into the 990 00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 3: store and it said, like I still remember buying Casino 991 00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:20,080 Speaker 3: and it was like Academy Award nominee Joe Pesci And 992 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 3: I'm like that meant something. But there's no physical copies 993 00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:25,680 Speaker 3: to buy these things. People stream even the movies.

I'm selling a beverage that 1053 00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:21,040 Speaker 3: I doubt anyone's ever tasted. I don't know anyone that's 1054 00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:25,000 Speaker 3: ever tastes I just say that, you know what anywan No, Yeah, 1055 00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:28,520 Speaker 3: I'm not a tequila drinker, so I don't know. 1056 00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:30,840 Speaker 2: But how many deals are done like that that we 1057 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:31,359 Speaker 2: don't know about. 1058 00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:34,040 Speaker 4: That's why we're here exactly. That's why we're here to 1059 00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 4: shed the light on that. 1060 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:40,160 Speaker 2: Okay, So accolades on money in that vein you filling 1061 00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:42,799 Speaker 2: the super Bowl Travis Scott performance, you're feeling. 1062 00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:47,000 Speaker 3: That, So I'm gonna go back, let's let's use I'm 1063 00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:49,880 Speaker 3: gonna use the alert, right, like, have the super Bowl? 1064 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:52,160 Speaker 4: You need me, I don't need you. 1065 00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:54,239 Speaker 3: I feel like that's my stance with him, Like he 1066 00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:55,960 Speaker 3: doesn't need it, he didn't need it. 1067 00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:58,719 Speaker 4: He's gonna do it, obviously, I think he decided to. 1068 00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:01,640 Speaker 4: So you don't get paid for Yeah, there's no like 1069 00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:03,160 Speaker 4: you paid for that, right, right. 1070 00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:05,239 Speaker 2: So the thing about it is that you're doing it 1071 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:08,640 Speaker 2: because it's a look notoriety. But once again, it goes 1072 00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:14,160 Speaker 2: back to the validation argument, where does the super Bowl 1073 00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:17,640 Speaker 2: really help your career? Because Justin Timberlake came up with 1074 00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:21,200 Speaker 2: an album the day after the super Bowl performance, and 1075 00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:22,200 Speaker 2: it did terrible. 1076 00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:24,120 Speaker 4: The albums are terrible, but the tour. 1077 00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:27,520 Speaker 2: Because he's still justin Timber, still justin Timber. They so, 1078 00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:30,799 Speaker 2: but the album did terrible, right, I did not listen 1079 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:34,719 Speaker 2: to that. Janet Jackson, have we seen her since. 1080 00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:36,480 Speaker 4: She just put out an album? Yeah? 1081 00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:39,080 Speaker 3: No, I think I think she put that album. I 1082 00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:41,040 Speaker 3: know she put out a single with Daddy Yankee. 1083 00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:44,000 Speaker 2: They had Bruno Mars do it twice. 1084 00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:44,680 Speaker 4: Twice back to back. 1085 00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:47,399 Speaker 3: But the ironic thing is Beyonce did it too, right, 1086 00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:50,320 Speaker 3: So like the year after or two years after, and 1087 00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:53,200 Speaker 3: I was like, you need me, I don't need you. 1088 00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:56,520 Speaker 3: Like granted, Beyonce did not pay for that, right, she 1089 00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:59,160 Speaker 3: had to deal with Pepsi that they sponsored her tour 1090 00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:04,000 Speaker 3: and they sponsored her performances. So Pepsi they front the 1091 00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:05,800 Speaker 3: bill on the stage performance. 1092 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:08,120 Speaker 2: But that's a powerful line that jay Z says, you 1093 00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:09,920 Speaker 2: need me, I don't need you, because it's really speaking 1094 00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:13,600 Speaker 2: in broader terms to say the artist has control over 1095 00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:18,879 Speaker 2: the situation right now with YouTube, with social media. So 1096 00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:23,000 Speaker 2: but for some reason they still think that they need 1097 00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:26,439 Speaker 2: the validation. They still need a Grammy, they still need 1098 00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:29,000 Speaker 2: an Oscar, they still need the Super Bowl perform He's 1099 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:32,799 Speaker 2: the main performer exactly. We just went over like three 1100 00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:37,000 Speaker 2: different examples of how the oscars. You don't need an 1101 00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:40,000 Speaker 2: oscar to make money. You don't need a Grammy. 1102 00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:41,319 Speaker 4: To sell records. 1103 00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:45,320 Speaker 2: You don't need to be on the radio to sell records, 1104 00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:48,440 Speaker 2: to perform to sell merch. You don't need to be 1105 00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:52,160 Speaker 2: at the Super Bowl. Travis Scott's already Travis Scott. 1106 00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:53,800 Speaker 4: With or without the super amazing. 1107 00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:56,800 Speaker 2: He's still one of the hottest artists in the world without, 1108 00:53:57,560 --> 00:53:59,839 Speaker 2: So I'm not really here to judge him on that, 1109 00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:02,680 Speaker 2: But if that's why he's doing it, I think that 1110 00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:05,640 Speaker 2: that's a poor decision because I don't feel that he 1111 00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:08,000 Speaker 2: needs to do that, right if he. 1112 00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:10,440 Speaker 4: Wants to nominated, not is he nominated for a Grammy 1113 00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:10,799 Speaker 4: as well? 1114 00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:13,440 Speaker 2: I like that. 1115 00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:15,080 Speaker 3: I just for the record, just going to say that 1116 00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:16,880 Speaker 3: we think Victory Lap is the album of the year. 1117 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:21,080 Speaker 3: If it doesn't win, it's still our album of the year, right, Like, 1118 00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:23,560 Speaker 3: it doesn't matter, right like right? 1119 00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:26,040 Speaker 2: Yeah?
