 A.I. is going to have to become a norm because the music industry is notorious for lack of innovation with 2000, 2001, whenever Napster started popping off. Yeah. Yo, snap this internet thing. What are we going to do about it? We got to figure out how to stop all this. Like, that's their first move. Like you said, they try to stop it. Didn't they realize they can't stop it? Then they try to figure out how can we participate? Because even though it's not ideal, we got to try to get something. What up? What up? What up? It's Brain Man Sean. And I'm Kory. And we are back with another episode of No Labels Necessary Podcast. You can catch us every Tuesday, every Thursday on YouTube, Apple Music, Spotify, wherever you stream your podcast, bringing together the conversation at the intersection of commerce and creativity. Creatives don't let these people keep you off your money. And the people without that money, entrepreneurs, don't let these people box you in. Think you're not creative. We all live by the no labels necessary lifestyle. Today we got something special for y'all. And then we got something special before something special. So let's get into the topics first. Promo, we're about to give y'all a game and show y'all how to use this AI to promote your music. Because a lot of people are like doing these fake artists stuff, like promo videos, but no, actually, how do you apply this towards your music? And then before that, we're going to talk about how AI is already taking over. But right now, we got to celebrate. Because this is episode number 51, baby. And we forgot to celebrate on episode 50. We were supposed to celebrate on episode 55, you know what I mean? Just moving fast, doing a lot, doing our thing, trying to give y'all this content as we learn. And we just got to, you know, round of applause for us and y'all as well. Most importantly, y'all showed us a lot of love for the podcast. Really appreciated because, you know, from the very beginning, it felt like something worth doing. Like we knew that we were on to something and we got so many ideas that we want to give to y'all and so much great content, education, entertainment, dope people that we want to bring to this platform. And the more y'all pay attention, the more y'all watch in the YouTube algorithm shows that the more people, the more y'all share it, the better people we're going to get onto this podcast. Because people, you know, people want to get them numbers. Respect the clout. Yeah, they respect the clout. They respect the clout. Now, outside of being episode 51, we also never celebrated on the pod, us receiving the plaques that, you know, a long time coming. Yeah, listen, you know, I'm going to pick this thing up 24K golden shout out to him. And forever appreciative for him to even reach out to us for these plaques, not for these plaques, for these songs, the work we got to do on both of them. Mood, I didn't know Mood was diamond on Canada until soon. Right. Which is a fun fact, you know what I'm saying? City of Angels, first song we ever worked that went to that level, and that's still, like, that album. I think of a crazy album. Yeah, a hundred percent. When you up at night all alone, playing games on your phone, that shit was hard. It sure was, father. Had people playing gummy bears to that song all on TikTok. You remember that gummy bear game? That was an error, man. That was definitely an error. I don't know if we'll get that back. I don't know. I'm glad I could be me during that time. Hey, for sure, which fun fact for people who don't have plaque shit, playing on game, plaque shit, our personal experience is, you know, I'll speak for me out. Of course, speak for yourself. But like one, like really dope. I don't, I'm not someone who plans to get a plaque for every single song that we get plaques for. Because, you know, you do have to purchase your own, you know, you put in the work. They are cheap. If y'all didn't know, y'all have to actually buy your plaque. Everybody can't just go buy any random plaque. You still got to like deserve it and get in on it. It's official and shit, but you got to buy it. And I wish there was a selection process, like a catalog of like all the plaques that we have. So we can just visually look at it and then you can like just click which plaques you want or whatever. Because one, one, this is my favorite one out of the two, the yellow, the city, yellow one, city angels. The other one, though, I told Golden, I was like, damn, Brian, I was about to have a big ass picture of your face. All of my all of my my room and shit. You know, I love it, though. You know, I love it all the more because I fuck with him. He's a he's a really, really great guy. Not even place it. I'm like, hey, bro, I got a big ass picture of this man. Now I got to figure out where I want to put that. I can't just have it sitting and looking at me at all times now. But yeah, so anybody who has that idea or has a wants to get into that, y'all should start allowing people to select because even you can like design your room better. Like if you plan ahead of time, it's like, all right, I can put that plaque over there. That plaque is that color. You don't really get that. Like the images they try to send you over is the vibe. This ain't the same. But with that being said, I appreciate y'all. Appreciate all the people we've we put in work with. And again, those are special to me just because those are our first ones like hitting that level. Obviously, we've worked other stuff that have done, like, cool things at this point. My first legit one. Yeah, you know, what do you mean by legit? Oh, I got the C. Oh, yeah, Cory got a plaque from C. Lo man. I mean, nobody needed to know how you got it. But just know that this is your room. The first one on my name. And it's yours. OK, it's the first one on my name. Oh, man. So, yeah, just again, like, appreciate y'all, all the love just pushing us ahead on the podcast. Matter of fact, we never asked this. Who else do y'all want to see us interview as well? Like, y'all see, we're starting to do interviews. Like, go ahead and drop in the comments if you're watching on YouTube. Who else y'all would like to see us interview? But before we get an episode, I hate to lay in the episode before we get in the content. But with that being said, when we say who else would y'all like to see us interview? Yeah, you like, you could just say whoever you want us to see in general, but just understand our goal. We truly are like that. No labels in terms of we want to find people who fit that mode. They're actually doing something different, interesting. You will see the one we're dropping. Well, we dropped it already. So the one we dropped on Tuesday, the Fiverr, you know, Kibo making $82,000 in a year. Well, he actually made more than that in some years. Just rapping on Fiverr, Chad Focus doing what he does and his whole route playing with the bodies. We want to keep interviewing and speaking with interesting people, not just like the traditional route. Of course, we are fine talking with people who have a great story on the traditional route as well. But like, there's so many ways to play this game. And I think it's time that people start like talking about the money that comes from doing it different ways. Because artists aren't comfortable talking about their bag. Yes, if it degrades the art, but I think they all can work together. That's just my thing. That's just my thing. Now, with that being said, again, like I said, we're about to drop these promo strategies on y'all fools. And y'all are going to get some interesting brainstorming ideas to how to apply promo and AI together for your music to actually get streams. That's the important part, not just do this cool shit randomly. But first understand that AI really is here. We talk about it taken over, but in China, they've already dropped over 1000 AI tracks under the company. Ten cents specifically. So I want to say the country of China, because I'm sure there's more AI tracks in the country of China that have been created, but Dave dropped 10,000 from the parent company, Tencent, that's merged with Alibaba at this point. And we're not just talking about instrumentals. We're talking about full songs, mimicking a voice. I take the Corey voice and then I put this on a track and I speed it up. I don't necessarily let y'all know it's the Corey voice. I just take the inspiration because it got some hitmaking abilities like just playing with artist voice and the vocals and taking these beats. And these songs are charting people. I'm talking about being successful, not just funding games, charting. Some of the tracks got hundreds of millions of streams, over 100 million streams on an AI track. Not like, oh, because it was an interesting novel thing. Let's go check this out. No, like just because they thought it was dope and they're streaming like a regular song. So it's already happening in this incubated area, which that which is China. Is no doubt that that's going to be in the rest of the world at some point. They're 100 percent, 100 percent. And how many tracks are they dropping? But that we've been using that $50,000 50,000 tracks dropping every single day on Spotify for years. But I'm crazy now. It's like a hundred dollars closer to a hundred thousand thousand day and then what you said, 10,000 songs drop, right? So that's one percent. If we were being conservative, I was like, let's just keep it at that number. It's like one percent of a day. Right. Maybe might be talking about the API tracks. Yeah, right now. Yeah, that's a good way to think about it. One percent of the AI tracks are coming out daily. Well, could be. They might have just dropped 1000 total. But let's just pretend we get to the point where we're dropping one percent AI tracks daily as real tracks are being dropped. But that number is going to grow, grow, grow. And now you're not only competing with the growing market share that went from 50,000 humans dropping tracks to 100,000 humans dropping tracks over the last two, three years. And then next thing you know, the humans are still going to grow. It's probably going to go to like 250 to 300,000. But next thing you know, AI is going to be on top of that. And you'll probably, you know, people are going to get stupid with that. Like and get crazy efficient. That number might be something crazy, like 800,000 tracks just being thrown into the ether, seeing what catches. Yeah. Yeah. I think it could be interesting, man. Maybe AI music will become its own genre. You know what I'm saying? I can see that. I can see that. Right. Just to kind of like that, to even the competitive playing field that way. So your AI song can compete with other AI songs like the B.T. Awards and the Latin Grammys. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We go, we go, we go over there. So so I could, but I could, I could see it going there. Because actually, I have this AI theory, but it'll make more sense when we get to another topic. So I'll just, I'll just roll for back alone. Oh, shoot. Let's get into it then. First promo. We talk about how you use this AI shit for your own music. Right. Well, there's a guy who finessed his way and boosted his followers on Instagram using the AI music finesse. And people were, some people were really messing with his music using a big name in this case, Ice Spice. Let's just share it on a screen real quick. If you listen on the podcast, just let my voice soothe you and take you through the journey. Welcome to the underground. It's the IG page that posted it. So that was the page you use for promo. And the slide is Ice Spice and this rapper that you don't know. All right. When you first see it, obviously, it says breaking news, Ice Spice, he thought I was filling you. The fact he got into there just just cosigned this artist in a recent interview. Ice Spice just cosigned this artist in a recent interview. Listen to this clip right here. Jady's birthday is like my favorite artist right now. At first, it weirded me out that he was like using my name for promo and stuff. But I keep hearing his song Pink Floyd when I'm scrolling on TikTok and it finally got stuck in my head. Heard that? Jady's birthday. Jady's birthday is like my favorite artist right now. At first, it weirded me out that he was like using my name for promo and stuff. But I keep hearing his song Pink Floyd when I'm scrolling on TikTok and it finally got stuck in my head. So let's break this down. Some of y'all are watching the clip, the YouTube folks. Shout out to y'all. But the problem is you might be able to see that it's obvious that she's not actually saying this if you watch close enough. Or if you've just seen enough AI, you know, combinations, but it's her voice. Right. So if you're just watching on a regular scroll, not paying full attention, it really does seem like Ice Spice is sitting in this interview talking about this Jady's birthday. Got. Right. Now, this is where we get into some promo tip, too. Because the way that sentence was formed, right, the way he broke that down and said it, it felt realistic. Right. Like, at first, it was weird in me out. So I don't know who this artist is. Like if you're just listening as a fan, I don't know who Jady's birthday is. But at first, it was weird in me out. So it kind of sounds like he might be a nobody, right? Just saying, like, throwing my name, using me for promo, da, da, da, da, da. Right. But he won me over. Yeah. And even that makes it a little stronger. Like, oh, but after I caught it enough strokes rolling on TikTok, so that that whole way of presenting it, like really made it feel more realistic. Now, if he really was able to nail the AI aspect, he should have spent a little bit more time on that. Find somebody who could have, you know, really made it feel more realistic. Yeah. Yeah. In terms of, like, catching the audio with the video, like, he probably would have passed for even longer. Yeah. That would have been scary at that point. He could have got the video off. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. Because, like, we know there are those that can take the mouth and like move with it. You should have went that extra step because the plan was genius. Instead of me just doing some AI song or like or me like playing with an artist and having them rap one of their verses or famous artists doing another artist's verse or something like that. No, like, how can I use the AI to promote promote myself? So he got this paid for on an Instagram public blog page. Welcome to the underground. And they did a collab post. Right. So he has how many followers right now? It's not an enormous amount. But he has seven thousand seven hundred followers. But I think Zach said he probably had like one thousand before this. All right, it was something low. He had a big old jump because of this. Oh, shoot. I didn't see that. You get a card in a long time. I think that's the change card. Let me see. Jady's birthday. Shit, back in the day. I'm not going to really play a song not to, like, hate on them. It's just that these copyright strikes. But otherwise, bro, I would show the song love and we would play it. Shall check out Jady's birthday. It is like my favorite side for yourself if you like it. But that's another thing. You can do all these strategies just like anything else. And people got to like it or not. So you can do all these interesting things. Please still have quality music. So it actually gets some kind of payout. Yeah. Yeah. And like I said, I got to be believable. Got to be believable. Some level believable. Some level, right, right, right. Let's look at some of the comments, though. Let's see, like, how this goes, bro, no way niggas use AI for promo. So people are just happy with it. Like, you know, entertained by the idea. AI voiceovers for promo are crazy. See, people, and this is the thing, even when it's clear that it's a fake, people appreciate your attempts at creativity. Like, they appreciate you for trying to get one over on them. If it feels like it's in good. It's like, oh, you weren't really trying to hurt me here. Yeah, I see what's going on. And I mean, even if it wasn't an AI finesse or something like that, trying to finesse them, just any attempt at, like, trying to do something on another level, people, they can sense it. It might not be something worth commenting on this type of level, but they can sense when you try and when you just, like, you know, you just show up. Yeah. All right. We know it's there. The bullshit meters is there in most people or deeper down from others. Some people have a hard time finding the bullshit meters, but we all got it. We all got it. It's so weird to see where the world is heading. Next thing, you know, well, the kid 23 said this next thing, you know, you'll be in court trying to prove something you never said. And we call that relationships. And they'll have an AI recording all of your voice saying that exact thing. So now you automatically guilty. S M H. Shit. Scary or real, real AI promo is hilarious. Yes, this is it's like the worst thing that's a count posted. Are you real? The worst things that kept posted. Are we? That's funny. She got good taste for real. Oh, that's JD's birthday. She want him. People playing in with it. Keep pushing. Let's go. The dumbest and lamest thing I've seen anyone do to get attention. Bro said, I got no real way of showcasing my talent. Let me do the dumbest shit ever. So even more big rappers don't fuck with me. This is a very bad take. Yeah. This is a very bad take. Like this is first of all, there's way dumber things to do in this. Second of all, this ain't that serious. He got attention. And there's a lot of things. This is like, you actually took time and put some thought into this, which that's what I appreciate. For real, for real. She'll probably call some money because I know these AI programs ain't cheap. Yeah. Or free at least. Right. Free. Exactly. Nah, the AI got me fucked up. All right, cool. With that being said, actually, let me pull something up right quick. All right, speaking of promo, I can't find a post, but Shawn, I gotta give my apologies. So I don't know if you remember. All right. South by Southwest episode. All right. I showed that post where the dudes had a promo with the truck on the back and all that stuff. And I was talking about how they could have did better ways of promo. Yeah. I sent it to the chat, but I couldn't, I don't know. I feel like they must have took it down or something. I couldn't find it, but they posted a video and they like chopped up me talking about them. Right. I guess they must have watched a podcast and they have somebody chopped up the video. And it was like me saying, I would have had the video recording because we ain't seen nobody recording on video. And I would have had, I don't know, let's just say your name or something like that. And they'll chop up like them doing their name. And then obviously the video recording. Little things like that. It was one thing that I was right about, but they didn't like record or I gave them credit for it. They didn't put that out there. Point is they did do it. They did a lot of things. Now I feel like there's a lesson in that. One, people are always gonna see you, like let's just say you doing shit for five minutes. Somebody can see you for one minute. And if you might have shit perfect for that two minutes, you still gonna have people that just missed out cause they only saw, they saw you at the wrong period of time. It's like when you almost walked out on a buddy, but you stayed cause he finally hit that right part of the song. For the right song. Right. So that's the lesson there, which I went through my own things with that. Like, damn, how can I make almost every second I'm doing this, like catch as much as possible. But two, they did exactly what I would have did too. I would have chopped me up and promote that. And that's why I'm mad. I can't find it. Cause like I would have promoted harder. You know what I'm saying? Or I mean, like, even if they in promo, I wanted to like show love and post it. But the point also still stands doing those things, right? Making sure if you do an a creative event, that's why I thought about it. Cause it's I spice posts and promo posts is creative. If you do something creative, you want to make sure it gets seen. Make sure you record it. Make sure you like people know who you are when you do it in the real world. The most important thing is recording. I'm not going to even get into the other details. Y'all can watch that episode back. Most important thing is recording, which is something that they did. Cause my whole point was like, bro, y'all doing this all this amazing creative shit, but you got to make sure it gets recorded. So that still stands point fact is they did it. With that being said, since I can't show y'all the posts cause I couldn't find it. Let's move on to this other AI idea. Like we're talking about the creativity, how you move with your campaigns, I spice posts, like really paying attention to the details, make it feel realistic as possible, just those small nuances, right? Quick second. Have you ever seen an artist catch some traction and then they start to move? The numbers start to grow. They might even go viral, but then fast forward a year from now, somehow their numbers haven't really grown that much. They dropped back close to the same monthly listeners they had before the traction and viral moment. Well, that's because you have to know how to convert those moments into careers. And we've done this again and again with not only songs but artists. And so has J.R. McKee who's been a part of helping artists like Lil Durk, Rod Wave, Justin Scott and Money Long. And we just did a collab where J.R. McKee does a step-by-step breakdown of how he took Money Long from zero to millions of monthly listeners and winning a Grammy over Beyonce, Mary J. Blize and Jasmine Sullivan. Check out this breakdown while we still have it up. You can check it out at www.brandmannetwork.com slash Grammy. Don't forget the www or it won't work. Again, that's www.brandmannetwork.com slash Grammy. Back to the video. Now we got something that's obviously not realistic, right? But this AI promo post is a post that people love and it made people a fan of this song. It went stupid viral. So check out Donald Trump, Barack Obama, chopping it up and then somebody comes in and drops a banger on him. He's where the fuck is Sleepy Joe? He hasn't been on the server in three days. He's probably just, oh, look who it is. Where the fuck have you been, Joe? Fuck you mean Barack. I've been locked in the studio cooking up some filthy house beats. Oh my God. Bro, what are you talking about? That grind don't stop boy. Sleepy Joe thinks he's a DJ. A DJ? I don't see it, Joe. Joe, I don't think you're gonna make it as a DJ. You'll make the crowd fall asleep. No, Donald, this track is actually a banger. The drop goes dummy hard and I can guarantee it will rip at the club. All right, let's just hear it. Maybe you'll prove us wrong. All right, I'll play a snippet. All right, again, you know, we already got to stop tracks early just because of the copyright stuff. It might have been too much. It might have been too much, we're gonna see. But like another pro idea, for those who can't see, I'm gonna explain all the things that went well about this and just for those who are looking but haven't caught all these things. Like you pointed out to Cory, they were hitting every single TikTok note. This is on TikTok where it blew up where you got a split screen, somebody at the top, somebody at the bottom. All right, we're two different frames, right? So it's Donald Trump at the top, first frame, bottom, you just got a video game playing. All right, this is just typical viral TikTok shit. Video game is playing, it's usually like a loop looking video game where like who knows what's happening. It's like Minecraft or Subway, sorry for us. But it might as well be like a New Age, like screensaver that Microsoft screensaver used to play over and over again. It's like that basically, people watching it. So it's like it's grabbing your attention, you're watching this motion that's happening. So it's interesting, but then you got something happening at the top too that's engaging you as well. And then obviously as Donald talks and Barack talks is going back and forth, right? And then of course, sleepy Joe comes in, we use the AI voices. Like it's all just put together so well, like they formatted this conversation. Again, it's the additional creativity that people are appreciating because when we get into the idea of POV, I always talk about that, it's one of my favorite things where it's like what matters and what makes an artist is their POV. That's how people remember an artist, think of an artist, I appreciate your perspective, your point of view and how you put things out there. Like Basquiat, we know how his work looks, right? Picasso has a signature, Andy Warhol has some signatures and we have things that we can do in their POV. That certain stereotypical Andy Warhol multicolor thing, we all would know that people are copying Andy Warhol, same thing applies to artists, but not just your music. When you put out something like this, people are like, oh, he has a sense of humor and he went through this work to put this together. And of course your brand might not be a funny brand or something you feel like you wanted to take lightly, but there's other ways that you can put in additional work and then come out with something creative. Versus, I'm just gonna put in two prompts and come out with an AI cover and say, hey, hashtag AI cover, it's just the fake people think you use some AI and did something special, you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. What I like about this too, especially compared to the last video is like this one is unbelievable at all. It's not. It's not. Exactly, it didn't even go for it. Yeah, exactly, it's like that was the joke of it, versus the ice spice one. Like I said, we probably felt, well, the joke of that was to make you think it was real, right, until you kind of hit the gotcha point. So I think it's showing that it can be done on both sides and consumers are okay with the joke on both sides, right? They are. You know what I'm saying? Like whether you're trying to make me feel like this is real or you're just trying to like create some, you know, wild situation for me to enjoy around your music. Like cool with it, you know what I'm saying? That's cool with it either way. Exactly. But the AI promo is coming soon, man. We don't figure out our AI promo. Yeah, I mean, I think we should do that. Yeah, don't put it out there for them. But if y'all got some AI promo idea, that's something else to drop in the comments. Let us know. I'd be interested. We might mess around and do something for real. We should make like a 10 minute interview. I mean, argument between Dave Chappelle and Joe Rogan on, I don't know, about us. Oh, about us? Yeah. Okay, okay, for our promo. So I was going with the idea. I thought you were about to say a random subject. I forgot. Oh, about us, man. Yeah, about us, yeah. Yeah, it'd be Joe Rogan and Dave Chappelle. I would love that. So who would be on our side? Would it be like Joe Rogan saying, oh, country we're amazing in days, but like fuck contraband, like that kind of shit. No, I think in order for the video to have maximum range, Joe Rogan has to be off. And Dave Chappelle has to be the hero in this instance. I see what you're going for. Yeah. Yeah, Joe is definitely easier to hate right now. Yeah, exactly. You know what I'm saying? Then Dave Chappelle? They vote, build their equal hate though. That's a polarizing conversation. Yeah, but I feel like Joe Rogan is bigger in a sense. So there are more out there that disagree with him. Particularly in a political space right now. Yes, for sure. For sure. So yeah, man. So Joe Rogan and Easybilling, bro. We have Joe Rogan showing us. Maybe then we have some follow-up clips of Dave Chappelle defending us. And then we leaked that whole conversation. I don't know, see where it go. The Joe and Dave selection, I didn't see coming. But, hey, bro, let's try it. Let's see how it goes. In other news, Eminem is out here suing these folks over at AI. So why? Because somebody used Eminem's style and a little bit of his voice to create a cat rap. I don't get it, man. Like the cat rap or the frustration? I don't get the frustration of suing. But then I kind of get it. But I'm surprised. I'll say that. I'm surprised. Eminem is so damn big. You know, you can kind of let this go and keep moving. I feel like I feel like he's at that level. People have done so many Eminem parodies type things. He started with the parody brand. I think that's part of the thing that I don't like to see. Right? People who start with the have such an unserious brand and making fun of people become the older person. And now, hey, kids on that point. He grew out of that. That's what I'm saying. You try to remind him of a dark place that he used to be. And he trying to get past that. But we think it's funny as consumers. Maybe he don't think it's funny as Eminem. It's tough as you introduce yourself that way. Now, people are keeping you to who you told him to be. Maybe. Maybe he don't like cats. Maybe you don't like cats. I don't blame them, man. I don't blame them. Well, I think the serious note of it, though, is your brand. Him still. He's so big. I don't think it would have that impact. Nothing crazy, if anything. Just a joke to make it bigger. But let's just pretend he was smaller. This will be equivalent to Ella May. I don't want to call it Ella May. DJ Mustard stopping Jacquees from doing the boot up remix that Jacquees did of Ella May. All right. That was boot up, right? Yeah. All right. Because Jacquees junk started popping, popping. That thing was crazy. I'm not even someone who downloads shit. Because this is post-download error, where you really don't have to download most music. But they were really wiping this thing, getting off the internet. So Ella May has this joint popping at the end of the rainbow she won a Grammy. But on that route, before it really was known by everybody to be her track, and it was the biggest, biggest, and synonymously hers, Jacquees' joints start taking off. There was Jacquees, too. And a lot of people felt like that thing was better. Or they felt like it was up to par. And I was, I loved both songs. And I literally downed it, like, oh, she was being taken out. I downloaded on my computer, had this file on my desktop, and was playing that thing, right? What's the problem with that? Again, the ability to overtake and the brand and change who's getting credit of it, or just take some of it from Ella May in that moment, especially when he saw that as he being DJ Mustard as a moment that they can come out with a Grammy, which they did. Or just something big. Grammy's not guaranteed, but like, this is a moment. This is hard to come by. You were a smaller artist, or not even smaller, you could be pretty big, because that's relative. You could have a big, be a pretty big size within your niche, right? Like, you could be Playboy Cardi Big, Lil Yachty Big. Like, you could be pretty damn big and have a moment like this change the perception of how your brand is perceived. Yeah, correct, like a whole joke, a whole running gag or something that everybody takes over it. That you have no control of. Now, we know things can happen anyway, based on your brand. But when it's something like this, it's like, okay, let me go ahead and nip that in the bud, because this is an actual song. And maybe, again, maybe I don't like Cats, or maybe I really don't find this joke funny, or I don't want to hear, like, relations to this at the show, because fans might not even know that you don't think it's funny, right? And they're at your show, and they're doing the cat rap, and you're like, bruh, bruh. See, but this is what leads me to my grand conspiracy theory. I was thinking about this the other day, right? Well, I think it's gonna be interesting by A.O. Right, so we are at a time right now where on the regular consumer level, like it's fear mongering, right? There are like the, I don't know if you heard the story of the lady whose daughter got, but these are like fake kidnappers playing her like an A.O. voice of her daughter. Yes, yeah, let's get into that. You know what I'm saying? So it's like surface level, you know what I'm saying? Regular people level, we getting stories like that, right? Like kidnappings, just fucked up things happening around A.O. You come to the world of music and entertainment. You're getting things like this. We're getting Juice World covers, and Kanye covers of songs, and Cat Raps with Eminem. It's really like wholesome, lighthearted stuff, you know what I'm saying? That I think is gonna confuse the general consumer about A.O., right? Regular people are telling me this shit is scary. Music industry is like they having fun with it, you know what I'm saying? And all these different things are going on, even though despite the fears that are kind of coming up in music, right? Now, what I thought about the other day is I was looking at, it was like another like Juice World cover. I just been down to rap a whole like Juice World A.O. cover. And I was thinking like, man, I wonder how much monthly listeners of Juice World jumped up because people went to look for this song. You know what I'm saying? That's how I think about that. And then they just kind of hit me. And this is what I think A.O. is gonna go to in music. I think that they're gonna have to find a waiter to manage the copyrights of voices, or at least have licensing on voices. And I think that A.O. generated songs are gonna be cheered like UGC content, right? Because remember there was like a big issue when memes and shit first came along, right? Hey, people are to your point, people are taking our image and manipulating it in ways that once it kind of hits the internet, there's nothing we can do about it. The A.O. cover is kind of the same shit, you know what I'm saying? It's like, oh, I look at it the same way, right? Like two entities, right? A person can go make a meme about you, that goes viral, has nothing to do with your brand, but still positively, you know what I'm saying, leads back to the brand's people your way. It's the same way like these A.O. songs came, right? Like, I mean, we gonna get into it, but there's a guy who did some A.O. shit that made me go fuck with his music, you know what I'm saying? And it's kind of like tied to it. So I think that in order for the music industry to get along with A.I., and this is me being speculative and just knowing nothing about the laws behind what's about to come with this and just being real, I think it's gonna get to the point to where we treat these different A.I. M&M versions of songs or Drake versions of songs as just like UGC, right? And I think the industry's gonna have to find a way to maybe credit these A.I. creators as maybe some type of separate creator. And then maybe that becomes a license and fee for voices, right? So I'm not gonna take your Drake A.I. covers on them, but you gotta pay, I don't know, $5 a month for your Drake, your Drake license or something like that. I think it's gonna get done. I don't want the whole track, not no 5%. No, no, I said just like, I'm just saying like whatever for the voice. I'm saying like, but that's how I think, I think it's gonna have to be there. Like probably like regular royalty splits but the A.I. person has to be credit. I agree that royalties for using voices would matter. One, because we're already doing this basically in commercials where you use somebody's recognizable voice and they're getting paid whatever they get paid based on a negotiation. So we know voice that's recognized what has the power to move things, right? Create an emotion positive or negative. We just mentioned Barack and Trump. They both got identifiable voices that and then people feel however they feel about them, right? Now Drake, that boy right there has an identifiable recognizable voice and he's an artist, right? So I'm Drake. I'm like, yo, bro, not only are you using my voice and not only do I want that money, now I want more of that. Give me the track damn near because I would, I'm what made it pop. And I feel like that's what the A.I. creator will argue. Yeah, I'm sure they will. My lawyers are bigger. That's what I'm going with it. But that's why I think it's going to hit the same spear as UGC because it makes me think of the shit one, like when labels were getting videos of me taking down with music in it. And it got to a point where it's like consumer want for this outpace how fast the labels would keep up with taking it down. If A.I. music keeps becoming popular amongst regular consumers, it's gonna get to the same point where the amount of songs being pumped out is going, I mean, we see it with the China thing, you know what I'm saying? Like the China thing and the things, but it's like so many songs are gonna get pumped out to where it's like, okay, we can't keep up with taking all these down. Yeah, maybe someone like a Drake or, it's probably gonna be a big art trying to make an example out of some A.I. creator part. But we already know what's gonna happen. They're gonna violate one of them, sue the shot of them, try to make an example. I think it's gonna backfire. I don't think it's gonna work. And it's gonna get worse. And then the industry is gonna have to find a way to play along with it. The same way they had to find a way to play along with memes and covers and UGC in general, right? Think about the music industry lost this shit about TikTok. Man, all these kids are making these viral TikToks with millions of views and we not making no money. And the platform was like, yeah, but what about all the attention you getting back from it? You know what I'm saying? Like what about all the- See, that one's a little different. It is, but- If that one was like, we just want our cut, we see the impact, we just want our cut. What you're talking about is the thing that's historically right. Music industry is just fucking behind, right? Like something happens technologically. So first law, government is behind, right? When you compare with technology, something happens, things are moving faster than before. And you're like, oh snap, we gotta create laws to actually account for this, right? Yeah, to keep up with it. But like government is still this bureaucracy that you gotta move through. So the laws end up having a gap between the impact of the technology and when the laws get passed. So you end up having these blips where things were wild, wild west. People took advantage. Some people like made millions or made millions of views. And then next thing you know, gate got closed. So you missed that window, right? But a lot of weird things happen. A lot of great things happen. But then that's the government side of it. And music industry is like doing the same thing in many ways, except it's like the disruption of the capital. So like we can just start into what? 2000, 2001, whenever Napster started popping off. Oh snap, this internet thing. What are we gonna do about it? We gotta figure out how to stop all this. Like that's their first move. Like you said, they try to stop it. Didn't they realize they can't stop it? Then they've tried to figure out well, how can we participate? Cause you know, even though it's not ideal, we gotta try to get something. iTunes came out to kind of try to save them a little bit, but it never was as good as the old model in terms of capitalization. What was another thing? I mean, the AI is definitely gonna be another thing. I feel like something happened. There's maybe one or two things that happened between the Napster and like today. I mean, it was a national thing. I mean, there was just, well, I'll say that. I guess streaming. Yeah, streaming, yeah. There we go. Which is crazy, right? Like that made a big deal about national just for Spotify and iTunes to become a thing. Yeah, exactly, exactly. Like streaming's moving in the way it is. And then yeah, how can we just figure out how we can latch on to this? Because the music industry is notorious for lack of innovation, but through themselves, but it's always following the fan base, right? It's always the people and the people end up dictating everything else. Just like, yeah, like you said, TikTok, the people dictate this. Well, we just gonna go where the people are. Oh snap, Spotify has this amount of people. Well, should we try to get up on there? But the problem is the way they do that, the deals are always gonna suck. Like for the music industry themselves, the labels, and then they're gonna be even worse for the artists. Like, cause they're gonna suck for the labels or the labels always want like damn near hundreds and anyway, but like, it's like, well, you're never the leverage. The people are always the leverage and the platform in today's era is always in control of the people and the industry's never like creating the new platform or the new thing. So I think, yes, AI is gonna have to become a norm just for the reason you said. The more fans start finding more stuff, they like, well, we've both found shit that we like. Hey, bro, I'm gonna have to keep this one. I might need to keep it on the top. You know what I mean? I might have to treat it like the Jacquees track and put it on my desktop or something, but like, I'm keeping this one. I'm trying to grab some Juice World covers I don't found some as, you know, staying right where they are, right in the old YouTube queue, you know what I'm saying? It's gonna be there. It's gonna be there. You know, we just gonna have to see what that adjustment looks like. I think the award show, the AI award show is gonna have to be it. Yeah, I don't feel bad. I was booed like in CDs back in the day. I don't feel no talk about it. We already know it's coming. The purists, the new purists will be human. They're like, I remember when humans used to be on the charts and make the music and all that stuff. Cause no difference then, the digitization of the instruments, right? I remember we used to use real instruments. You can feel it different. People saying, I want auto tune and shit heavy. When people got real great voices out here and they not even using it cause they try to compete in this other face. Which is weird, you know, we got this homogenization of everything. But, I mean, I don't see how you stop it. Yeah, me either. That's why I never get the argument, but it confuses me that, you know, it makes you think about like, man, like me and all these like millions of people that live around me all went to like the same school system that we all like, you know, seeing the same world events happen and read about the same things and history books. I don't get how people would be thinking like, oh, we don't fight this shit. It's like, no, bro. No, you don't. One that is not a fact. We did not all go to the same school system. We did not receive the same education, you know, better or worse, whatever side of the fence that is. People be arguing every day, trying to figure out a politic, trying to figure out and get the kids in one school, another and play that game. That is, that's part of it. Like everybody got different information. And I think social media amplified that shit, right? You got different information, which is interesting because people just weren't aware to the same extent, the level of different information when they were in the, you know, regular school education system, social media, it's still different information optimized to your algorithm. So then people arguing based off of how can you like believe this and come to this conclusion based on this set of information right here. And, but you're arguing, well, nigga, how can you believe that? Based on this set of information right here that everybody knows. And the fact is, everybody don't know that shit. Y'all got two different sets of information or it only overlaps like 60% and nobody's aware that like this other person don't know. So you just like, man, this man stupid, right? That's what's happening, man. I believe that for everything but technology. Everything with technology? Enough examples of technology throughout history. For who? For all of us. All right, great example, man. Look, this is personal. Okay. All right, so like the town, the small country town that I grew up in used to be known as like the buggy capital of the world. The buggy? Yes. Like the shopping carts. No, like horse and buggy. When horse and buggy were a thing, apparently we was killing shit, you know what I'm saying? And then, you know, the automotive industry came along and Henry Ford, y'all, y'all, y'all the... Hey, there was a Henry Ford of buggy making back in the day. Exactly, what I'm saying, bro. Like that was the Tesla of buggies, you know what I'm saying? Like whoever came up with like the roofing part first and all that shit, bro, it was like a whole innovation thing, you know what I'm saying? From what I learned, you know? And then the town didn't keep up. Like it was like, there was like, oh, cars are gonna be like a fad, you know what I'm saying? Like, it's gonna be buggies and horses forever. And now we could have been, we could have become Atlanta. I'd like to think that. I like to think if we had chased our car industry dream, if we had followed the buggy thing into the car industry, who knows what Barnesville would be today? Who knows what massive metropolis it would be today? Right, but it didn't. And then it's a small country town with a Dairy Queen and like a big chicken, you know what I'm saying? Hey, Dane, it's crazy. You know what I'm saying? Y'all could have been away then. I take group gatherings against technology seriously. Cause I just, you know, imagine what my whole future would have been different if the town had deal with what I was supposed to do. You're not down with the Lulites. The Lulites, I think that's what they call. The anti-technology people? Uh-huh. No, 100% not, no. You can't be, so you're just automatically down for every technology? Not every technology, but like 95% of it. Okay, how do you decide this one's good or not? I give it time. I wait to see the extreme of the good and the bad and then go like, damn, right like I can write my essay faster and then five minutes or less, but damn man, these AI voice generated kidnappings are starting to kind of go out of hand. Every I should step back up from supporting this and look into something else. They don't always go that way, you know what I'm saying? It might be a little too late by the time you, you know, that patience. I mean, I would have learned with technology that if you live long enough, somebody would figure out how to use it the right way. You just gotta make it to that point. You just gotta make it to that point. You just gotta not die. Exactly, but you just gotta live to see the innovation get perfected. Now, look, I definitely agree with the overall idea that it's just so much that you can't fight, but there are, but there's a needed pushback that happens. Yeah, definitely. Just to make sure there's a checks and balances because some of these people, like the guy who like create, he's working on creating a virtual reality helmet where you die in the virtual world, you die for real. Yeah, like he needs to stop. He's gonna be shit like that. Yeah, he gotta be stopped. Like why? Why? Right? So, I mean, that's what we're working with, but. Although, although I would like to see the first person to take that first one in that helmet. I ain't gonna stay for the whole thing. Maybe like the first two levels, but I would want to see that. You wanna see that? Yeah, I ain't gonna lie. I just watch it in a movie and that. I don't need to see it. He really dodging them. He really dodging them. And it's about to end real soon. He really wanna win. But he looking tired. All right, now, I digress. Drake gave this dude a cosine hop on his track and gave his lyrics a big up. That's what it looks like when you watch this video. I'm gonna just play a little bit. She started my mergers in retro break. I don't even know what the fuck that means, check us out. All right. Yeah, can't play the whole song. I hate doing that to y'all, but like we done gotten strikes for songs that got like one stream, but point is what's happening right here is this guy literally has Drake performing his track. So you have all these artists that are getting artists to cover other famous artists tracks, right? I listened to Ariana Grande doing Drake's passion fruit earlier when y'all put me on to it. Well, instead of doing that, well, I'm gonna have Drake cover my song. I should. So what it says on the screen is Mercury, Drake, AI covered. Drake's singing it. Everybody's interested in hearing AI covers anyway. I wanna hear this one. But then eventually it's like, yo, what's Mercury? I haven't heard that song before. So if people listen to the lyrics, they wanna check it out. Great promo idea. Brilliant, brilliant moment in time not to mention he did exactly the strategy that we just talked about. You got a person at the top. You got a game basically looping at the bottom. It works on TikTok, folks. It works. The other one had like 458,000 likes. This one, I don't think this one is as popping just yet. Where is it in the likes category? This one only at 621, but it's spread more places than just here. I've seen it other places. Yeah, it was on Instagram, I'm sure. Exactly. So like, look, be creative with this AI. Like just play with it, have fun with it, figure out some stupid shit and then work backwards from there. That's what it usually takes. Just to get out your own box and overthink it, have a little fun with it. And maybe you don't drop something yourself, but I don't know. Let's brainstorm some promo AI ideas. Well, firstly, I am throwing AI features on all my songs. All your songs, okay. Track A featuring Drake, Track B featuring J Cole, Track C featuring whatever different artists I want to come together. And it just depends on my brand too, you know what I'm saying? Like what I kind of fall for. But assuming I'm an artist, one, I'm putting, actually, you know that one idea we put in the TikTok shit, right, the, what if this song was on my remix or what if this song, the artist was on my song, what if this artist was on my song or something like that? I would do that for real. Yeah. What if Drake was on my shit? Oh, you can hear it. What if Kendrick was on my shit? You can hear it. So I would do a bunch of those. Basically the challenges, open verse challenges. Essentially, yeah. Maybe even work it in like that. Maybe try to get one of those AI video things to make it look like, oh, shit. Like J Cole jumped on my open verse challenge. Here we go. Let's make it real. Start the open verse challenge, have a couple of real rappers do it, but didn't have all of a sudden some real, well, some AI people do it, yeah. Crazy. Maybe some type of AI artist mixtape. And I would throw myself on there to make it. That's exactly what I was thinking. I was thinking about like a one train type song, what if Drake and Jay-Z or insert three artists or whatever, we're all on the same song, let people listen, and then you'd be like another artist and people like, who this person? So yep, another one. I would probably, I think you would do like a fan contestant. If I was an artist, let's say I had this one song and I would be like, hey, which artist should I give this song to? And then maybe do like three different versions of three different artists doing my song, right? So let's say I wrote this song, I'm thinking about giving it to Ice Spice, SZA or like Ruby Rose or something, right? And then I would do the song and each of their voices and then be like, hey audience, which one should I put out or something like that? Who should I give it to? Who won type of thing? I think that could be cool. If you got a, if you have a track that's like relationship based, like if I'm rapping or I'm singing and it's like talking to the girl, right? And then I can use the AI to find a female artist to respond or vice versa, right? So they be a part of the conversation and it just be interesting because stuff like that, when you have the concept done well, people wanna hear the call and response regardless, right? Just if it's done well and they're connected with the lyrics, the AI just grabs a little of the attention. So concepts, like bringing concepts and into these AI is like the next level while people are still kind of just playing with it loosely for sure. Yeah, yeah. Even I still think what these artists did, Conor Massour, the Drake that I cover, I still think that's probably like the best direct song promo. For a while, that's gonna be, yeah. Yeah, exactly. Until they close that window like it's not really, right? So it was like, man, I would literally be like, man, who are some artists in my demo? I'm just gonna make AI covers of my show with all their voices and put all these shits out on it. I wonder if he has it on like YouTube or anything like that. Because it's not even that wild and it's just simple. It's like, yeah, they're just covering the song. Yeah, exactly. Not like the most like the point, like abstract thing or thing that, oh, Drake could have did the cover of a song he heard that he like, it happens, not with Drake, but it happens, you know what I'm saying? Oh, shit. But who does it happen with or could it happen with? Beyonce? Nah, she don't do that shit. Taylor Swift? If they do it, it's gonna be on some level that it benefits them or whatever. But I'm talking about J. Cole. He's been on this bag where I connect with the normal peasants, you know, I'm kind of like one of y'all type of media run and hopping, pulling up. I'm using the producers be pulling up. I'm listening for the freestyle. You can figure out some way anybody who has a J. Cole type of audience, how can I get J. Cole and like position myself as the normal person and J. Cole showed me some love. Yeah, yeah. Right up his alley brand-wise. People could believe it. This is, this is what I'm saying. Yeah, that's probably the easier one too. Cause, you know, we already used to artists doing shit like that. Cause of that, what's that one site where you can like hire artists to say stuff for you, like send birthday messages and things. You know what I'm talking about? Something with C. Oh, cameo. Cameo, right? I think because of cameo, like, you know, we already were pretty used to just hearing artists say shit and we ain't used to him. I mean, like it's not the weirdest thing that like, you know, Oprah is like telling your niece, happy birthday. It's not the weirdest thing cause of cameo. So I would do a bunch of stuff like that. You know, just like the guy that did the ice fight. It's true. That's believable, except you just don't gotta pay for it. Yeah, like do like a, do like a phone call, you know, make it seem like the situation is, yo man. Did I do that? Cause some of them, I'm sure they do so many cameos. That ain't for a member. Exactly. Man, maybe I did tell little Harold, his song is going to be go gold. I don't know. I don't fucking know. So I would do that. I would do a bunch of those, you know, and just shoot them out and see what's believable. That's a threat to cameo and I thought about it. Because the brand, not because people don't have to pay them, but because the idea that the AI exists, make things so unbelievable and skeptical in the marketplace. Now if I did a real one, nobody's going to leave it. Well, cameo, you get a video. So that's like their proof. Well, I'm saying, but we could do the AI videos. That's true. And they're getting better. Nah, I like it. But I could tell an artist, I'm going to go ahead. I was like, did you ever like make like a friend on like MySpace back in the day? And you make, they take a picture with like a piece of paper with their name on it, like a spoon or something. You tell them to do something. You never met like an internet friend. You like, I didn't even know if you real, you know what I'm saying? Like put a spoon on your nose and like send me a pic. You ain't never did nothing like that, bro. That's what cameo is going to get, man. But I want to believe this is you Drake. I really do. And it's going to sound wild for me to ask you this, but I need you to put a piece of paper on your head and send me a picture of that piece of paper on your head. And they're going to have to do it. That will be interesting. It's going to be real life capture, like real life by detection. Hey, that'd be funny. That'd be funny as hell. Oh, that's why you say real life capture. Talk about like the have multiple artists do a verse and then you slide in one of those verses on the song. Maybe think about that being a musical version of Instagram carousels or you just slide your promo post in between other people's promo posts. Absolutely. That's all the same thing. Yo, now we'll be crazy. Talk about J. Cole. Because again, just because he's the most believable and being on them, I'm normal and that's when normal people meteorize. If he or any big artist flipped it and they did AI of a smaller artist's voice and they put on their song. That'd be interesting. It would be because I would feel bad for the smaller. I'm like, damn, why don't you just come get me? Right. I could have been available. But it'll still give them clout. Yeah. And then the uproar around it would be probably even bigger than the initial thing. Like, if I really just got you, it's like when 50 Cent was talking shit about Chameleonair. And Chameleonair was like, bro, I could have swung. We were cool. I just talked to a buddy. But it was just weird to him. And then he was like, next time I saw 50, he was like, yo, what's up with you? Good. Like, 50 was like, yo, man, I threw you an alley-oop. You were supposed to take that. And he was like, man, this man's crazy. Because 50 Cent was basically, no, bro, I was starting a beef. And I like you. So I started a beef just so you could beef back and get more visibility for yourself. That was a moment for you. Right? Like, it's that type of thing. So, hey, man, I'm going to throw you this moment. Creator, up around you, I'm not. I did not reach out to you because I wanted to do you wrong. I didn't reach out to you because I wanted to do you right. Which sounds like some, like, some play of shit that's all we're trying to verse. But yeah, it would get me. I will fall for it. You know, at least at least the first time I would fall for it. For at least the first time. Because I'll be confused. Like, I would still be like, damn, I get it. Cold. But yeah. Why? You know what I'm saying? Hey, but again, it'll be an interesting promo idea for even a big artist to kind of flip something like that and expect it and use it in a way. Because it's all, you know, we can we can never say enough, this whole game is relative, right? Like moves matter differently and have a different impact. When you're in different places, when you're smaller, you're usually trying to look larger. When you're larger, you try to normalize yourself with normal behavior. Yeah, coming down from the clouds and blessing people with your presence because you're one of them. That's the type of like things like again, that's why literally the Oscars and these a lot of these shows have the comedian making fun of them so they can appear normal and that like they have a sense of humor. You know, that didn't go too well. You know, some of these shows, but so. But like that's that's the thing. Or if we go with the zero to one perspective. So Peter Taylor wrote this book called Zero to One. He was one of the PayPal mafia and one of the primary concepts. He talked about is those who do not have a monopoly, which would be the smaller artists in the example. Try to appear as if they have a monopoly. Why do we see that? All right. Always trying to differentiate yourself. He usually uses restaurants. Oh, I have the only Chicago pizza joint in town, but it's still pizza, right? And you know, I got the only New York pizza in town, Jersey or whatever, whatever. And then also you're still moving in the category of food because he was only eating so much food, right? But then if you are a monopoly, the big artists, you're trying to make yourself. This just this this falls apart a little bit with artists in some ways because artists don't want to try and make themselves seem smaller, but they do want to make themselves seem more normal, right? And in an example, strategically, strategically, I want you to think at times that I'm more normal. A monopoly, Google, Facebook, YouTube, these massive companies, whoa, whoa, whoa. No, we don't have a monopoly. You know, I'm alphabet. I'm not just Google. Google is just one part of my business, right? We don't own, but the argument is, oh, well, no, Google, you have a massive monopoly on search engines. Like that whole type of thing. Like, so the big usually tries to appear more normal. They should appear more smaller. The small try to appear bigger. So these strategies apply the same way conceptually. There's some things that you can do now and then, but then when you get bigger, just flip it. And then it's gonna move different. Which is why y'all should stop watching these big artists promo strategies. Be inspired by it. Love them, you know, appreciate them, but don't think that you're gonna apply them yourself the next day and get anywhere near the same result. Yeah. All right. Now, you got any more AI, like gold for us to drop or anything, like anything on the AI promo that you've seen personally yet? No? No, not really. Nothing, yeah, nothing with this. Okay, well, I would love to see the AI ideas from our community, man. Like, we've seen some really cool shit and other types of promo, but like, you know, just AI what always is happening. I wanna see somebody do something and then maybe we can highlight the idea on the pod or something like that. Y'all come up with something. Actually, I do have one more. All right, what's that? I would make an AI voice thing of a popular media personality rating a rank in my music. Yes. Charlamagne, Needle Drop, God, Joe Budden. Yes, yes, AI is something, especially that, right? AI is somebody who's already doing that, right? So, Needle Drop, Anthony Fantano or whatever. This is the name, yeah. Somebody who's in your category. Ac. Academics, yeah. Do the AI and then get that posted somewhere and then people never know and I would try to do that as well as possible where people just don't think it. Academics wouldn't even notice immediately because it probably wouldn't go viral enough immediately. That's what I'm saying. So it didn't even catch you. And the right personality of the academic would respond back to it, so you know. Exactly, exactly. You start some booths, you don't go back and forth and beef with you, give you a little bit more attention. So, academics would be a good demographic or you could just do it for yourself and then run an ad. And do well. We've seen what a quick 5K in 14 days would do. All I need is that boost. You never have to know. You never have to know. Be in and out before it starts catching. No man, be turning the ads off the day people get mad about it. People start saying, you know, man, I've been a fan since you did that, like since I saw that video with Jay-Z talking about your song or whatever. You gotta be like, whoa, what are you talking about, sir? That never happened. Me? Yeah, I don't know what you mean, but I'm glad you made it here. I'm glad you found me. I don't remember that happening. So you got, you had these strategies that the rest of the world don't have to find out about but which is getting into more the black hat strategies and stuff is one of the things that's kind of beneficial. About the internet being so big, there are some things that you can do just to get you 30% there real quick and cheap and then make sure you wipe the table off. Yeah, bro. You know what I mean? The internet is literally like those sci-fi movies where the portal is closing and everybody's trying to get out before it closes. It's like somebody gets through and then it just closes behind everybody else. That's one of all the rules and regulations get kicked in. It's like, oh, sorry guys, you know what I'm saying? You should have ran through a little bit faster before this shit got checked. That's how I think about all this shit. Now there's just a bunch of people racing towards the portal to use it as best as they can. We probably made it worse with this episode. There's a bunch of people running towards the portal trying to figure out how to use it before it closes behind them and shuts everybody off. We definitely added to the fire. Let's shoot, part of the race. I'm here for it. We only benefit from this. We don't really lose. I agree. I agree. That's the best commission we have. Yo, this is another episode of No Labels Necessary. I'm Brandon and Sean. And I'm Corey. We out. Peace.
