37
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,640
I never got to the I never got 
to the Snapchat era. 

38
00:02:30,640 --> 00:02:31,880
I never got the whole what? 
What? 

39
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,480
What's, what's the unique 
selling point of Snapchat? 

40
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:39,960
The USP, as they call it. 
I mean sending pictures. 

41
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,600
Oh. 
So Instagram just like showing, 

42
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:48,240
like just the whole the whole 
having like your story, having a

43
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,240
story like that's came in 
Snapchat. 

44
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,320
OK, everybody. 
Everybody stole that idea. 

45
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,080
Remember when Instagram was just
like pictures? 

46
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:01,080
And then there's a whole thing 
about them stealing Snapchat's 

47
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,560
business model. 
All, all social media has 

48
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,960
morphed into one. 
They're all one thing now. 

49
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:08,600
The old one. 
Anyway, this is not the social

That's what AFAM is talking 
about and AFAM managed to snag a

86
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:11,160
couple placements on the joint. 
He he got two songs too late. 

87
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,280
And what's the other one called?

Formula One. 
So go play those please run them

89
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:17,320

Bro needs the money. 

90
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,720
Run them up. 
Run them up. 

91
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,000
Shout out to you man. 
That's that's that's cool. 

92
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,240
I had some joints on there, but 
they were they were cut. 

93
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:30,800
OK. 
Are we allowed to say that? 

94
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:35,560
Are we allowed to say that? 
Can I say that is it? 

95
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:36,640
Is it I? 
Think we can. 

96
00:05:36,840 --> 00:05:39,240
I think we can. 
I think we can mention, yeah, 

97
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,000
yeah, OK, we can, we can, we 
can. 

98
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:46,680
But just like within reason. 
So essentially me and Sam had 

99
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,320
worked on this album years ago. 
Like years. 

100
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,480
Like while the dinosaurs still 
roamed the Earth, so. 

101
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,120
Basically, yeah. 
You know how things are 

102
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:59,400
sometimes in the music industry.
Like music gets recorded and 

103
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,800
then released like way 
afterwards. 

104
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,840
So essentially, Mctindo was a 
very different album when Sam 

105
00:06:05,840 --> 00:06:09,400
and I both worked on it. 
At the time, me and Sam had 

106
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:13,320
collabed on a song together, but
like, you know, times change and

107
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,320
everything, so like, those songs
essentially got cut. 

108
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,120
Sucks as a sucks as a producer. 
It sucks as a producer when when

109
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,920
your joints get cut. 
But it's part of it because and 

110
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,360
and and actually like it because
that shows that he has he's 

111
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,600
taking time with the project so 
he's not just like giving us 

112
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:34,320
like what he initially recorded 
and he's like OK, I want to take

113
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,760
our stuff and that's cool. 
Like that's definitely a better 

114
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,240
it's it's it's helps for like 
it's more thoughtful, it's more 

115
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,720
curated, it's it's just better. 
Of the original. 

116
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,320
So the original album I believe 
was like 10 or 12 tracks. 

117
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,880
The only ones that survived were
two songs, and those are the two

118
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,840
songs that I happened to work. 
On the boy is working and of 

119
00:06:55,840 --> 00:06:59,200
course I I would think he would 
especially after after Angela 

120
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:00,240
blew up. 
I would think that there would 

121
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,840
be some restructuring of of of 
some of the sound. 

122
00:07:03,840 --> 00:07:07,720
They have to cater to that world
sound like because that's what's

123
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,720
putting. 
OK, now that we're here, we can 

124
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,160
kind of just talk about like 
Buttress a little bit like bro, 

125
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,000
no, actually, before we even 
talk about butchers a little 

126
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:17,840
bit. 
Sam, how was your. 

127
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,480
Week, Sam. 
My week is very important. 

128
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:21,520
Let's talk about butchers. 
Butchers. 

129
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:23,120
Just a project. 
No, no, no, no. 

130
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,280
How was my week, Sam? 
How was my week? 

131
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:26,640
It was cool, man. 
At school. 

132
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,400
I'm back to producing it. 
And I've been just. 

133
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,000
I've been making a bang. 
I'm working on a project. 

134
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,720
Hey, let's go. 
Yeah. 

135
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,520
I figured out what my first 
release is going to be. 

136
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,840
I just have to put it together 
now like I'm trying to get the 

137
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,280
visuals right and I'm trying to 
get I don't know if I want a 

138
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,240
feature on it but we'll see how 
it goes. 

139
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,440
It's it's I'm a piano promo is 
promo at this point it's I'm a 

140
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,440
piano but it's I'm doing a 
fusion between. 

141
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,720
I'm a piano and like electronic 
music. 

142
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,960
I'm a very. 
I lean heavily. 

143
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:58,840
I lean heavily. 
Electro piano. 

144
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,680
Yeah it's Electro piano. 
I've coined the term I've coined

145
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,640
the term Electro piano. 
So it has like a lot of 

146
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:09,000
electronic elements like the 
Saints and it's almost like not 

147
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,120
not dance music like with 
melodies and stuff but then like

148
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,880
you know like electronic sounds 
and just the ex the the 

149
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:20,600
experimenting of of of synths 
and and sine waves and all that 

150
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,560
business like what people did. 
So I've, I've tried to in 

151
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,760
incorporate that into like I'm a
piano, the basic I'm a piano 

152
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:34,440
sounds, the Shakers, the log 
drum, the Moody brooding pads 

153
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,200
and stuff like that. 
So yeah, I'm really excited 

154
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,919
about it. 
I've not played it for you, I've

155
00:08:38,919 --> 00:08:40,200
played for you. 
I'll send it to you, see what 

156
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:41,520
you think. 
But yeah, it's cool. 

157
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:42,960
I'll send it to a couple of 
people who've gotten some 

158
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:44,560
feedback. 
A lot of people like it. 

159
00:08:44,560 --> 00:08:46,040
So I'm hoping to release that 
soon. 

160
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:48,840
Yeah, just that and planning, 
man. 

161
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,120
Planning, planning, planning, 
trying to get some things done. 

162
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,680
But apart from that, not much 
has been happening. 

163
00:08:53,680 --> 00:08:58,960
It's been raining in Nairobi as 
it is now, and we all love a 

164
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:00,320
good shower. 
So Yep. 

165
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,080
Rain is good. 
Man, I really miss home. 

166
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,040
Well, anyway. 
Already. 

167
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,000
Yeah, bro. 
You can't start missing it 

168
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:10,760
already, man. 
You're not even a month. 

169
00:09:12,680 --> 00:09:14,720
Just stay strong, bro. 
Stay strong, brother. 

170
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,840
Stay strong. 
So like. 

171
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,440
But yeah, bro, so we were about 
to talk to talk about Boutros, 

172
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,840
man, what a guy. 
Like if you if you if you just 

173
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:24,840
think about. 
What a guy. 

174
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,960
Like from From our perspective 
as producers, yeah. 

175
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:34,800
Like for me, the biggest song 
that the time that he was coming

176
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,520
to the studio was was obviously,
yeah, yeah, yeah, shout out to 

177
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,720
Cap. 
I feel like yeah, yeah is what 

178
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:41,680
put Cap on the map as a 
producer. 

179
00:09:41,680 --> 00:09:44,960
So, like, shout out to him, Cap 
on the map. 

180
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,800
Don't need to doctor, sis. 
Making chap, making slaps. 

181
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,680
All right. 
Anyway, nice. 

182
00:09:51,680 --> 00:09:54,760
Don't list that with silence. 
That was the last episode, bro. 

183
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:56,640
That's the new thing. 
That's the new thing. 

184
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,680
No, that's the new thing. 
Whenever everyone makes a makes,

185
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,120
just throws a Hail Mary. 
Just let that one. 

186
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,000
Let that one simmer in the. 
Atmosphere. 

187
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,680
So at the time, at the time, 
like, yeah, Sharp was very much 

188
00:10:07,680 --> 00:10:11,720
like, I feel like it was like it
had already started for sure. 

189
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,440
Like it was a thing, but like, 
it was like, now you know what's

190
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,600
going to happen next. 
Like after. 

191
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,360
Yeah, yeah, yeah was everything.
So, so you see Boutros then. 

192
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,280
Ah, brah. 
I remember us working in the 

193
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,400
studio with him. 
Yeah, I remember bro. 

194
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,320
Me. 
I was, I'm not going to lie 

195
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,320
some. 
I was hungry like the moment. 

196
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,080
I was like because because bro, 
I really wanted to work with 

197
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,480
Boutros, man. 
And I remember that first time 

198
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,360
he came to the Stew, I was just 
like, I went home and I made 

199
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:41,760
beats. 
Forever. 

200
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,920
Like I just made so many beats 
man, and I was listening to them

201
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,280
yesterday and like a lot of them
sucked. 

202
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:55,800
But luckily, like there was 
there was the the too late one 

203
00:10:56,160 --> 00:11:00,600
and there was no no should I 
break the 4th wall. 

204
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:05,280
The Formula One beat like I had 
to rework that one just so that 

205
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,560
like it sounds more modern. 
Because remember, this is music 

206
00:11:08,560 --> 00:11:10,440
that was made three years. 
Ago. 

207
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,840
So I had to like just to say and
I'm not. 

208
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:13,680
I'm not. 
I'm not. 

209
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,200
I'm not. 
I'm not trying to to to pander 

210
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,280
too much to affirm. 
But then that really that was 

211
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:21,840
like a really dope thing where 
he's like farm. 

212
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,840
I have to reproduce and he 
didn't just do like one version.

213
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,280
Like bro did multiple versions 
of the song to make sure that he

214
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,800
got the one which was OK with 
like producers don't usually do 

215
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,160
that. 
That's that's like they take the

216
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:33,800
lazy way out or the artist likes
the song. 

217
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,400
All right, we are good with it 
but guys like farm now and and I

218
00:11:37,560 --> 00:11:40,360
understand it. 
It's like we made that in 20 

219
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,520
whenever. 
Bro, I felt like my reputation 

220
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,960
was on the on the line as well 
because like, I didn't want a 

221
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:51,000
song like I did. 
Like, sure, like the way I 

222
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,520
produced in 2021 was OK, but 
like, I didn't. 

223
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,560
That's not representative of me 
today. 

224
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,240
But anyway, this isn't about me.
This is about butcher. 

225
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,160
It is. 
And so like I remember, I 

226
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,000
remember some like, remember the
listening party. 

227
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:04,960
You were there for the 
listening. 

228
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:05,800
Party. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

229
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,520
Yeah. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 

230
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,640
And and just like he told the 
story of Tindo and everything. 

231
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:15,960
Was such a. 
Different person today. 

232
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:17,880
Were you there? 
You aren't there, You. 

233
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,400
Aren't there when they came to 
listening to do the listening 

234
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:20,680
part. 
Yeah. 

235
00:12:20,680 --> 00:12:22,400
I just don't remember. 
At at Oh, no. 

236
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:22,720
No. 
Yeah. 

237
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:22,960
Yeah. 
Yeah. 

238
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:23,720
I remember. 
I remember. 

239
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:24,640
I remember. 
I remember he was. 

240
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,480
We were we were at downstairs 
right where it was just all of 

241
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:28,240
us in there. 
Yeah. 

242
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:28,840
OK Yeah. 
Yeah. 

243
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,320
And then all those guys came. 
Guys for Boom Blake in a jinx. 

244
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,000
Yeah, yeah, all those. 
Yeah, I remember it. 

245
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,600
Was fine, bro. 
And see, we're such different 

246
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,760
people now because of me. 
I remember at that time I was 

247
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,960
really just an intern. 
And I remember I couldn't talk 

248
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,440
to anyone like me. 
I was just only talking to you 

249
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,080
and Eric. 
I didn't know anybody, like, so 

250
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,680
seeing Buttros then and then 
seeing him now, obviously in the

251
00:12:52,680 --> 00:12:56,560
time in between, like, I 
remember, bro, things kind of 

252
00:12:56,560 --> 00:13:00,000
went a little bit quiet. 
And then like, I was like, OK 

253
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,080
was like Butcher's next. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

254
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,760
And then he got like some 
energy. 

255
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:06,320
And then he released whoa, whoa,
whoa. 

256
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,560
With Cap produced that one as 
well. 

257
00:13:08,560 --> 00:13:11,760
And I was like, oh bro, maybe 
he's, he's back. 

258
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,560
But then I guess that sound was 
a little bit too similar to 

259
00:13:15,560 --> 00:13:17,080
yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Yeah, so he didn't people, he 

260
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:18,360
didn't really catch fire like 
that. 

261
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,560
It didn't really catch it. 
Caught a little bit of fire, but

262
00:13:21,560 --> 00:13:24,880
not that much. 
And then obviously Angela came 

263
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,080
out shut out to. 
Catch seat on the beat. 

264
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,800
It's my guy and. 
Shout out to taxi and CC. 

265
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,000
Yeah they all say that that was 
that was like a that was one of 

266
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,200
the mistake joints like like 
that was that was not a planned 

267
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,600
let's sit down and. 
Workout It was never planned 

268
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,280
like and that's the crazy thing 
about the music industry. 

269
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,320
But like now seeing the the 
success, like I was reading an 

270
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:49,480
article about how that song is 
doing massively in Oceania in 

271
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,000
Fiji. 
Just like that whole region, 

272
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,520
like people are making TikTok 
dances. 

273
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,320
People are making so much 
content, obviously. 

274
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:02,200
Honestly if I'm if I'm in 
butcher's team, I'm suggesting 

275
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,640
yo why don't you just go to her 
there and see what happens? 

276
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,760
Because they seem to love him 
over there. 

277
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,240
But that isn't that crazy 
though, Sam. 

278
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:16,120
Like that somebody can like just
like like in front of your eyes 

279
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:19,520
transform into like. 
Yeah, but you can tell though. 

280
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,520
You can tell like when, when? 
Like when, when, when you're. 

281
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,440
I haven't been in the studio 
with him as much, but you guys 

282
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,800
have and and but you guys, I 
mean like the people who we 

283
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,120
worked with on that album. 
And it's all the same stories. 

284
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,440
Like this guy is his his number 
one on the one he seems to 

285
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:40,720
really care about his craft in 
the sense that he's he's active 

286
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,640
he's an active musician. 
There's there's different types 

287
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,880
of musicians the people that 
musicians are very passive where

288
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,960
they just allow that they all 
they bring is like the talent 

289
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,040
and they're like OK I've written
I'm going to write but his 

290
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,480
active is like OK let's do this 
let's do this or let's change 

291
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:59,280
this let's you know and and 
people who do that it's extra 

292
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:03,680
legs for them and we've seen him
like we've so he's and to top 

293
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:07,040
that off he has he still sounds 
well I don't know if you if you 

294
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,840
had hunger on them did the album
but I think he's he's chilling a

295
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,760
bit like witches is is is is 
he's having fun. 

296
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:15,280
He's a fun guy. 
He's having fun. 

297
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,040
He's having fun now. 
Yeah, he's. 

298
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,960
He's being more himself. 
Now yeah, but but, but there was

299
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:21,960
a lot of hunger back then. 
Like yo, I'm coming to the 

300
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:22,920
studio. 
What are you doing? 

301
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,480
Let's let's throw on a beat. 
Let me hear something. 

302
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:28,120
Let me hear something else. 
So yeah, it's cool and it's cool

303
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:29,560
to see, man. 
He's he's definitely on a 

304
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:35,080
trajectory and his his 
credibility he's is that the 

305
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,560
word I wanted to use what's the 
word that we used for And we're 

306
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,440
talking about coal his legacy 
he's he's building that up. 

307
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:43,160
He's building, yeah, he's 
building. 

308
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,000
He's building that up. 
So man, it's really cool to see 

309
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:47,360
and. 
Obviously they had the whole 

310
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,080
bro. 
And then look at all the 

311
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:53,280
collaborations, bro. 
Like, it's kind of insane. 

312
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,560
It's kind of insane. 
OK, let me just. 

313
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,880
OK, listen, let me just list off
these collaborations and then 

314
00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:04,480
maybe we can move on. 
But bro like Ben Soul had the 

315
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:05,080
band. 
Boom. 

316
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:12,840
Joshua Baraka, Rizzicki Major 
NSG and Calligraph Jones Quiz. 

317
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:23,280
Timmy Blanco Bakro G, Fenagitu, 
Savara and Fathermore VB Blinky 

318
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:29,880
Bill, Ice Prince Jovi, Jov AJ 
from Brooklyn Boys and Black 

319
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:33,560
Viking Bro. 
That's a that's a full project 

320
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:34,480
too. 
It's a. 

321
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,600
Full project, OK. 
It's a full one. 

322
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,960
I mean, there's an argument I 
saw online that may, you know, 

323
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:44,080
maybe the the collaborations 
were a bit much because there 

324
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,640
was only like, how many songs 
were there that were just 

325
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:51,280
buttress. 
Yeah, 123. 

326
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,120
But you see, yeah, yeah. 
There were three songs that were

327
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:59,240
just Buttress by himself. 
Which you see but but you see 

328
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,760
The thing is I'm not mad. 
I'm not mad at at the features 

329
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,240
you're not mad at especially 
since he gave us, he gave us. 

330
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,119
I mean he's given us like a 
couple of projects in between 

331
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,839
like EPS and stuff right. 
And there's probably been 

332
00:17:08,839 --> 00:17:12,040
majority him on them. 
So it's it's not like he's he's 

333
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:17,079
afraid to to to be himself or to
to what do you call it to 

334
00:17:17,079 --> 00:17:18,760
release music. 
That's just him on it. 

335
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:20,800
So I'm not mad at it. 
I'm not mad at it. 

336
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,960
Of course it would be good to 
see a really good butcher's 

337
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,720
project where he's just going 
and he's just rapping and doing 

338
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,160
what he's doing. 
But his sound as is evolving and

339
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:29,960
it's more Afro. 
I mean, it's more of that 

340
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:35,520
dancehall, Afrobeat type style. 
And I would think that for that,

341
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,920
like maybe he might want more 
features on it. 

342
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,800
So I'm not mad at a team having 
all of those features. 

343
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,880
If I'm them me, I just go and 
like feature on like one of 

344
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,600
these Oceania peoples. 
Like I know they have rappers 

345
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,280
out there in Fiji. 
Yeah, and and everything. 

346
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,280
You just go feature, bro. 
See what happens, bro, see what 

347
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:54,800
happens. 
Become worldwide. 

348
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:56,200
Yeah man, shout out to him. 
Shout out to him. 

349
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,200
Shout out to the team with Sao 
and everyone there at AT. 

350
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:00,960
Is it ADF? 
Bro, that's why. 

351
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,880
Yeah, at ADF, yeah. 
I mean and shot, bro. 

352
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:05,880
That's why you need like a dope 
team. 

353
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,800
Because like you, you need a 
visionary and you need somebody 

354
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:10,800
who can like actually put things
in motion. 

355
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:17,800
So bro, like, if anything, this 
just shows me that like like a 

356
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:22,760
duel of an artist and a manager.
Like when they just gel 

357
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:24,200
perfectly. 
Log in. 

358
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:30,120
Unstoppable, Unstoppable. 
But yeah, shout out to them. 

359
00:18:30,120 --> 00:18:33,040
Shout out to Mintendo. 
Out now, man. 

360
00:18:34,120 --> 00:18:36,760
Sam. 
Out in your earlobes. 

361
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:43,680
Sam, bro, we need to talk about 
this because like honestly, I 

362
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:47,520
don't know what's going on this 
this is a mess. 

363
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,440
Our our music industry is a 
mess. 

364
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,880
And the reason why I'm saying 
this is because. 

365
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,560
Shambles. 
OK, what should I start with? 

366
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,160
Let's start with this. 
So I I find an article about 

367
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:02,040
Kekobo saying that they're 
forced to advertise for fresh 

368
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:06,320
CMO licenses amidst court drama.
So this guys. 

369
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,880
So just listen to this. 
Just a week after the High Court

370
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:14,200
barred Kenya Copyright Board AKA
Kekobo from extending 

371
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:19,760
operational licenses of MCSK 
Camp and Prisk, the regulator 

372
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:25,000
has now placed an open 
invitation from companies that 

373
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:29,800
possess the appropriate 
competence to function as ACMO 

374
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,720
to send in applications. 
So essentially what's happening 

375
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,240
right now in the Kenyan music 
industry is what is it This is 

376
00:19:37,360 --> 00:19:42,840
so you think You Can Dance. 
This is, this is, can you give 

377
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,080
me any of these like, talent 
competitions? 

378
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,000
This is America's Got Talent 
right now? 

379
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:49,640
All these people are now 
dancing. 

380
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,200
They're dancing to see who can 
be the next CMO. 

381
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,880
Like, honestly, what's happening
with our music industry, Sam? 

382
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:59,200
Like I've never heard of a a 
situation where like now they're

383
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:00,840
saying like, OK, who's going to 
apply? 

384
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:04,280
Who's going to be the next CMO? 
Find out next time on The 

385
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,480
Kenyan. 
Music industry on the Kenyan 

386
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:10,480
music industry? 
No. 

387
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,560
So it's. 
I mean it's real. 

388
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:19,360
This is this is turning this 
into a free for all at this 

389
00:20:19,360 --> 00:20:21,720
point. 
Like they where is this? 

390
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:25,640
Where is the structure? 
OK, so let me, let me let me 

391
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,800
think about this logically. 
I think there's two sides to 

392
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,920
this One, it looks weird. 
It looks nuts. 

393
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:33,560
It looks like we don't know what
we're doing. 

394
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,320
It looks ridiculous. 
But at this at the same time, I 

395
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:41,200
think this might the only reason
I think this would be a good 

396
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,120
thing is this might be an 
opportunity for, you know like 

397
00:20:44,120 --> 00:20:48,080
the real ones to stand up like 
can the real can the real. 

398
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,080
Can the real CMO please? 
Exactly. 

399
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,560
Exactly like this is like the 
opportunity for that. 

400
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,960
But other than that farm, this 
looks nuts. 

401
00:20:58,280 --> 00:20:59,640
Just, I wouldn't lie to you. 
It looks nuts. 

402
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:01,480
It's so nuts. 
And then with Kekobo. 

403
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:02,560
Yeah, with. 
Sorry. 

404
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,360
With we're looking at we're 
looking at numbers now like 

405
00:21:06,360 --> 00:21:10,880
trying to get the the camp had 
had talked about the, you know 

406
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,000
like MCSK did theirs a couple of
months ago. 

407
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,800
So camp said, all right, our 
turn. 

408
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:16,600
It's our turn now. 
Watch this. 

409
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:17,520
Yeah. 
Watch this. 

410
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:21,800
Exactly. 
It's like watch this, you guys. 

411
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,560
Oh, oh, those are your numbers. 
All right. 

412
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,520
We are doing. 
So they decided what's this? 

413
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:30,240
They're going to tell us how 
much money they're distributing 

414
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,040
again. 
Can you All right. 

415
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:36,240
Can we just side note, can we 
can we agree before we let's. 

416
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,320
Before we get to that can we 
just agree. 

417
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,800
I love the accountability, all 
right. 

418
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:44,920
It's amazing. 
It's good. 

419
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,640
It's it's it helps and it's 
definitely necessary. 

420
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,360
So let's keep that up in the 
industry. 

421
00:21:49,360 --> 00:21:51,320
OK. 
Accountability 100%. 

422
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,000
I give it to all you guys. 
MCSK except Prisk. 

423
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:55,240
We haven't heard anything from 
Prisk. 

424
00:21:55,960 --> 00:22:00,520
They've been quiet at camp. 
You know they're like this is 

425
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,600
what we're earning. 
This is what we're giving out. 

426
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,880
I like that. 
But you guys don't realize that 

427
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:10,760
every time you put out numbers, 
we come out with more questions.

428
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:12,000
That's what they do. 
It's. 

429
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,760
Very many questions. 
And we realize how much you're 

430
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:16,320
finale. 
Like anyone who really looks 

431
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,480
deep into it, we just realize, 
all right, wait, something, 

432
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,720
something is kind of off here. 
And that's exactly what happened

433
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:23,720
with this whole camp thing. 
Like something is a little bit 

434
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:24,680
off. 
We don't know. 

435
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:30,480
There's just so many questions, 
but like like, OK, one, right? 

436
00:22:31,360 --> 00:22:36,400
How did they arrive at the fact 
that, OK, so the article says 

437
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:41,200
that of all the 100% of what 
they are going to distribute, 

438
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:48,480
right, 61.59% is going to be 
given to the artist while 39% is

439
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:52,120
going to be used for expenses. 
Now my first question. 

440
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,720
Exactly. 
How do we arrive at 39% being 

441
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:58,120
used for expenses? 
Like yeah, what determines that?

442
00:22:58,120 --> 00:23:02,080
How do we arrive at that number?
Yeah, like, like, like, why? 

443
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,320
Because like I said, we've even 
said this before. 

444
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:09,080
In other music industries, for 
example in America like the CMOS

445
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:14,280
or whatever, the PR OS will most
likely take around 10% for 

446
00:23:14,360 --> 00:23:19,160
expenses, 90% is is given to the
artist, right? 

447
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,000
That seems kind of like, OK, 
that makes sense. 

448
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:26,520
So where do we come up with 40% 
been taken for expenses, right? 

449
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:31,000
That's step one, Step 2 about 
like this whole thing. 

450
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:37,280
So apparently Camp, the money 
that they've received from 

451
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:45,480
collecting royalties is or 
accounts for 21% of of the the 

452
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:50,400
total pie that's collected by 
Prisk, MCSK, and Camp. 

453
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:51,840
Right. 
The three. 

454
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,640
The So now the Big Three. 
The Big Three. 

455
00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:00,880
This. 
Comes this record, this is comes

456
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,160
this like it's just. 
Me. 

457
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,560
Essentially like motherfucker. 
The big three just beat me. 

458
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,880
Just beat me, Bomb. 
Yeah, and their bomb is not even

459
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,520
that good. 
They need to relax anyway. 

460
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:13,160
Sorry. 
Yeah. 

461
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:17,400
So essentially what we're 
referring to is later on in this

462
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,920
article, Camp kind of says 
listen, if there's going to be 1

463
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:25,640
singular CMO, it should be us, 
like screw, Prisk and FCSK. 

464
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,920
Oh, I like this. 
I like, I like, I like beef. 

465
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:29,000
I like. 
What do you call? 

466
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,320
It I like. 
Distribution, distribution, 

467
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,760
royalty distribution, beef, I'm 
here for royalty distribution. 

468
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:34,880
It's. 
Camp Kendrick? 

469
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,080
It's Camp Kendrick. 
All right, let's do this. 

470
00:24:37,120 --> 00:24:40,960
OK, so, so Prisk is cool because
Prisk is cool because they're 

471
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:42,640
quiet and they're CC. 
We've not heard anything from 

472
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,160
them and. 
MSSK has to be Dick, because 

473
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,680
that's the one everybody knows. 
Yeah, from sorted out, it's 

474
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,720
we've cracked the code. 
We've really cracked this thing 

475
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,800
up. 
We've really cracked good 

476
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,040
journalism over here. 
This is good journalism, This. 

477
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,320
Is great music journalism, by 
the way. 

478
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:08,960
Anyway, anyway, so. 20%, so, so 
yeah, so essentially they they 

479
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,720
are distributing or they've 
collected around 21%. 

480
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:17,840
This is the one of the total pie
that has been collected from Q1 

481
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,600
of 2024. 
Now the article goes out to out 

482
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:27,280
out goes on to outline that in 
the whole Q1 of 2024 in Kenya, 

483
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:32,240
131 million Kenya shillings has 
been collected in royalties, 

484
00:25:32,360 --> 00:25:38,040
which translates to round about 
$1 million, which to me is kind 

485
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,720
of SAS that it's such a perfect 
number like, oh, we collected $1

486
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:45,800
million in Q1, it's too perfect.
But anyway, that's just me being

487
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,440
like a crazy person. 
Like, why did they collect 

488
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:53,680
exactly $1 million? 
What would you have 998,727? 

489
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:56,360
It's 1,000,000, it's 1,000,000, 
bro. 

490
00:25:56,680 --> 00:26:01,600
But anyway, so now this is the 
questions that come into mind, 

491
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,200
right? 
So if we can just do like some 

492
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:08,600
quick maths, very like basic 
elementary maths projections, 

493
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,280
Yeah. 
Yeah, assuming that in Q1 we 

494
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:16,840
were able to generate 1,000,000 
and Q1 isn't really like a high 

495
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:20,360
music consumption time period, 
right? 

496
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,720
More people consume music like 
towards the end. 

497
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,200
So we can, there's more drops in
stuff, Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

498
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:31,400
So we can fairly assume that one
million can go across the board 

499
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,160
all quarters. 
So we can say that essentially 

500
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:39,760
in the year Kenya could 
potentially generate $4 million 

501
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,680
worth of royalties in music, 
right? 

502
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:47,560
That's a fair assumption, right.
I mean now A+B is equal to CI 

503
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,760
guess, yes. 
Yeah. 

504
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:54,720
So that translates to round 
about 500 million Kenyan 

505
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,160
shillings. 
Those numbers are kind of funny.

506
00:26:57,360 --> 00:27:00,200
Not not funny. 
I I would, I would hope they're 

507
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:01,680
real. 
Hey, it's the numbers that 

508
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:03,560
they're giving us. 
So let's work with what we're 

509
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,960
which by the way, Sam, if we're 
being realistic, this is very 

510
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,440
dangerous because look, those 
numbers look high. 

511
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,720
But if they're giving us those 
numbers, I feel like it's 

512
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,000
higher. 
I feel like what's actually been

513
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:17,160
collected. 
So you're onto something. 

514
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:18,240
I don't know. 
You're onto something. 

515
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:20,720
And I thought I I that that 
thought flushed in flashed in my

516
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:24,160
head. 
I'm like, but what? 

517
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,840
So this is what they've chosen 
to tell us. 

518
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:30,040
So what don't we know? 
And we especially since we don't

519
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,600
trust, we usually don't trust 
our systems because they've 

520
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:34,400
proved to us that they're not to
be trusted. 

521
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:42,640
So, so here's the thing, right? 
So 500, 1000 of no, 500 million,

522
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:47,040
half a billion Kenya shillings 
worth of royalties can be 

523
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:50,520
potentially collected in the 
music industry this year. 

524
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:54,280
How are people being sent for 30
Bob in their phone? 

525
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,240
Sam, you didn't tell me how 
that's happening. 

526
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,280
Well, see, see, here's the 
thing. 

527
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,000
I I started like, I started out 
like there somewhere. 

528
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,120
I was going, listen, it's all, I
don't know, man. 

529
00:28:04,120 --> 00:28:06,840
I have no idea. 
I don't know. 

530
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:11,160
I don't get it. 
The other frustrating part thing

531
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:15,440
about this article, it starts by
saying So the distribution 

532
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:21,240
format for that camp is going to
be undertaking in Q1 of 2024 

533
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:27,720
will be a hybrid form consisting
of a blend of general and 

534
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,200
scientific methods. 
By the way, if I saw that term 

535
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,520
scientific methods one more time
I'm going to slap somebody, 

536
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,000
because when MCSK what you mean 
by? 

537
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:37,800
Scientifically dropped their 
district. 

538
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,360
We saw that. 
Also they talked about the 

539
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:44,400
general and scientific too. 
So same bars. 

540
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:46,040
These guys are using the same 
bars in their. 

541
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,280
Same bars, same bro. 
They're using the same ghost 

542
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,440
writer, that's what. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, right now. 

543
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,120
Yeah, and MCSK would have a 
ghost writer. 

544
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:55,840
Bro, for real. 
For real. 

545
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:56,640
Oh. 
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. 

546
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:58,440
I mean, I'm. 
Seriously, you're not doing the 

547
00:28:58,480 --> 00:28:59,320
science. 
You know you know what's 

548
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:00,520
happening. 
You're not doing the science. 

549
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:06,120
So, so basically they're saying 
that they'll pay out nine 

550
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:11,160
million Kenya shillings in this 
Q1 generally, yeah, like it'll 

551
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:14,800
be issued to all the members and
then 8 million will be paid 

552
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,280
based off of the performance of 
all of members. 

553
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,120
How about you? 
My question is and maybe 

554
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:25,040
17,000,000. 
For me personally, Sam, maybe 

555
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:28,960
this is capitalist of me, maybe 
this is capitalist of me, but 

556
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,240
why not just pay people what 
they earned? 

557
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:35,440
No social I. 
Don't understand. 

558
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,320
Like for this please actually 
explain to me. 

559
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:41,320
Explain to me No, no. 
Maybe I'm a capitalist, but this

560
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:45,280
explained to me why if I 
generated 2 million worth, yeah,

561
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:48,640
shillings worth of revenue, why 
can't I just be paid 2 million? 

562
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:52,880
Like this is all a plot to fudge
the numbers, That's what. 

563
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:54,320
That's what my brother would 
say. 

564
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,480
Like I can just imagine him 
saying that this is all a plot 

565
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,720
to mess around with the numbers 
and to make those to make that 

566
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:07,240
39% seem seem legit. 
First of 39 for 39% for expenses

567
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,480
That I'm still stuck on that 
Where is that going? 

568
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:13,560
Why is it 39%? 
How many people are you? 

569
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:18,880
And and I remember Ezekiel Mutwa
was asked that question by when 

570
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:20,880
the interview that we're talking
about he was asked that question

571
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,480
and he proceeded not to give an 
answer for that. 

572
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:29,360
So shout out to you Sir, and I'm
pretty sure if you ask what's I 

573
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:32,200
don't know if if you ask Angela 
Dambuki because she's the 

574
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,240
chairperson of camp if you 
asked, I don't know. 

575
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,480
Maybe she'll be able to give. 
She used to go on that same hot 

576
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,920
seat and be grilled exactly like
like the MCSK guy was grilled. 

577
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,880
But this is ridiculous. 
Sorry I went on a tangent. 

578
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,520
This is ridiculous. 
We need to stop. 

579
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:49,240
We give do they do this in the 
States? 

580
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,840
Do you know whether this is how 
they do they generally give you 

581
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,720
paid what you you? 
Paid what you you you paid what 

582
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:59,480
you you you generated. 
Listen, if I generate 1000 in 

583
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:03,360
royalties, fine, pay me my 1000.
But if I generate 10,000, pay me

584
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,440
10,000. 
Like I don't understand why you 

585
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:08,120
have to have a blanket thing 
then have a tea tell. 

586
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:09,200
Me. 
Tell me though, what do you 

587
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:10,320
think? 
What do you think are the are 

588
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:15,040
the negatives of of them paying 
everyone? 

589
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:17,560
Because OK, listen, let's talk 
about that. 

590
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,600
That's what I'm saying. 
Maybe this is maybe this is 

591
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:23,520
capitalist of me. 
But like that means like an 

592
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:27,640
artist who generates high 
revenue, their money is being 

593
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:35,280
eaten into to to kind of like 
accommodate for the rest of the 

594
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:39,520
people which would be which I 
understand, especially like when

595
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:43,400
it comes to things like what am 
I going to say like I would 

596
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:47,120
understand if that's just like 
the only thing that was 

597
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:52,240
happening like but The thing is,
The thing is I feel like they're

598
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:58,560
using this as a way to kind of 
offset the money that should be 

599
00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:00,920
paid to the smaller artists, 
right. 

600
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:03,320
By paying. 
So. 

601
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:08,040
So essentially what's happening 
is money is being taken by these

602
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:12,400
collective, the CMOS, right? 
Like they're not paying out what

603
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,600
they need to be paying out. 
Yeah, interesting. 

604
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,960
Now there's a vacuum. 
How do we pay the people who we 

605
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,080
should be paying that money that
we've paid? 

606
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:25,560
Let's take general from the 
people who generate, right? 

607
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:27,720
Yeah. 
So like, let's take that money 

608
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,720
from the people who generate a 
lot of money and then spread it 

609
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,000
thin with the other people. 
So. 

610
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:34,880
So that's what's essentially 
happening, you know? 

611
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:36,000
Am I making sense? 
You know what? 

612
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,760
To solve this, we need new laws.
We need new copyright laws. 

613
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:40,400
We need new. 
We need new laws. 

614
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,120
This this can't continue. 
This is weird. 

615
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,160
But some this is now the 
problem. 

616
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,320
It's now back to the original 
article. 

617
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:54,480
Right now Kobo are said to So 
listen, the licenses for this 

618
00:32:54,480 --> 00:33:00,200
three CMOS, Prisk, MCSK and Camp
expire on May the 8th. 

619
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:01,960
Yeah, right. 
And now it's coming up. 

620
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:05,840
Kobo is set to to host this so 
you think You Can Dance or who 

621
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:10,240
wants to be the next CMO, right?
They're set to hold this new 

622
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:12,880
like application process right 
now. 

623
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:17,480
What happens like in a in an 
already fucked up system, right,

624
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,880
Like now? 
I mean, I don't mean I don't 

625
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,680
know all this legal stuff, but I
would imagine finding the next 

626
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:28,880
CMO that will be the one, right?
It's going to be like a long 

627
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:31,440
protracted process. 
There has to be so many things 

628
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,680
put in place ETCETC. 
So now in a system that's 

629
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:39,880
already not paying out what it 
needs to do or to pay out to 

630
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:44,160
people, right, we're taking away
this small semblance of like 

631
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,960
organization, trying to fill 
that in with a new one, right? 

632
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,200
And it's going to it's going to 
be a shit show. 

633
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:57,520
So essentially now this 500 
million Kenya shillings that's 

634
00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,040
been collected, which by the 
way, let me tell you guys, it 

635
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:03,360
will be perfectly collected. 
I can guarantee you that that 

636
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,280
money will still be collected, 
right? 

637
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:09,280
But now that these are the three
CMOS will will be barred from 

638
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:13,440
like potentially barred from 
collecting those royalties and 

639
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,840
distributing them, right. 
Yeah, that I feel like that 

640
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,639
money is just going to end up 
like just going an account. 

641
00:34:18,639 --> 00:34:21,040
Like imagine like you. 
Like while, while they figure 

642
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:22,000
out. 
Who's going to be watching? 

643
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:23,520
What if the Yeah, watch of The 
Desire. 

644
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:28,239
All right, so we're going to 
pick one for sure in 20/25/2026.

645
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:30,920
What do artists do between now 
and then? 

646
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,800
Like, do we just sit around and 
wait for you guys to get your 

647
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:38,320
acts together, or do we? 
This is ridiculous. 

648
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,239
You all need to get yourselves 
together. 

649
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:44,480
There needs to be someone in the
government who has a little bit 

650
00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:51,199
of desire to see art work and 
actually try and get these 

651
00:34:51,199 --> 00:34:53,960
things organized. 
Because the way it's going now, 

652
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,920
hey, I can't. 
I can't predict. 

653
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,920
I not predict. 
I can't see artists benefiting 

654
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,680
the way they're supposed to for 
a long, long time. 

655
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,160
This is, it's this is a big 
mess. 

656
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:09,120
It's a big. 
Mess. 

657
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:10,280
It's ridiculous. 
Guys. 

658
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,160
Listen. 
You know, things like sound, 

659
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,680
sound, exchange, ETC. 
Let's just do your research into

660
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:20,360
those things, because our 
systems here are just like. 

661
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:21,800
They're not set up. 
They're not set up. 

662
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,560
I mean it looks like, it looks 
like the pot is staring at least

663
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:29,520
it looks like people are trying 
to show out whatever it is. 

664
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:34,120
But all of this is just like 
they're they're they're showing 

665
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,360
out for the wrong reasons. 
They're showing out. 

666
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,680
MCSK is telling us oh look at 
how much we paid to artists. 

667
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,720
Look at how much and look at 
what we're doing for the for 

668
00:35:42,720 --> 00:35:46,040
Bill and Ezekiel Mcdois 
championing look at our moral 

669
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:51,160
grounds and that's great. 
And then camp is coming out 

670
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:55,720
talking about here we are the. 
Motherfuck the Big Three. 

671
00:35:55,720 --> 00:35:59,280
It's just me. 
It's just big. 

672
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:03,000
Me and your numbers are just as 
weird as the other two. 

673
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:07,480
Or we don't know what what comes
not come what Prisk. 

674
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:09,760
See, I'm even forgetting that 
there's a Prisk. 

675
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:14,200
Number The truth is, who even 
knows if 131 million was even 

676
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:15,840
collected in the first three 
months? 

677
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:17,960
No one knows. 
We don't know. 

678
00:36:18,240 --> 00:36:20,480
We don't know. 
This is, this is false 

679
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,040
accountability is what they're 
giving us. 

680
00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:26,600
They're this is consumer facing.
This is what this is. 

681
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:28,840
This is ridiculous. 
Like the game is angry. 

682
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:32,560
Like, like, like, listen. 
Like the numbers that they're 

683
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:36,040
saying they collect could be an 
extreme lie. 

684
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:40,120
Now walking off of that lie, 
we're also being lied to about 

685
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,680
how much that they're taking, 
like, and why they're taking 

686
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:44,840
what they're taking. 
So we're just being lied to. 

687
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,120
Like it's it's like compounded 
lies. 

688
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:50,480
Like it's like some, I don't 
know how to explain it. 

689
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:54,480
It's like if I, if I, if I say 
some bro I bought, I bought 20 

690
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,080
mangoes, right. 
But actually I bought 30 And 

691
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:58,760
then I say, but some you know 
what we'll do? 

692
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,520
We'll divide that 205050, right?
Yep. 

693
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:05,080
Or I'll say, you know what? 
Because of my hard work like him

694
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:08,600
getting goes mangoes, I'll take 
60 and you'll you'll take 40. 

695
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:10,840
Now, you might think that's 
fair. 

696
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,960
But listen, I've already fudged 
the numbers from the beginning. 

697
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:15,720
You know what I. 
Mean. 

698
00:37:15,720 --> 00:37:19,680
So I'm like, I'm here like I'm 
here like that The little. 

699
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,040
Yeah exactly. 
While you your it's nasty 

700
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:25,360
businessman. 
It's disgusting. 

701
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,960
But then you need to ask Alpha, 
Wait, but why do you think that 

702
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:33,240
because you went out to buy the 
mangoes, you deserve 60% or 

703
00:37:33,240 --> 00:37:34,160
like. 
Like you do. 

704
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,600
You know what I mean? 
Like, maybe that number should 

705
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:38,720
be 55. 
Maybe it should be 70. 

706
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,040
Like, how do you, like, what do 
you used to come up with 

707
00:37:41,240 --> 00:37:43,720
arbitrarily came up with? 
Yeah, you know what I mean? 

708
00:37:43,720 --> 00:37:45,280
Like and you know. 
I feel like they came up with 

709
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:50,080
that number of salaries. 
How much are we going to pay our

710
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:53,200
people? 
And then let's add expenses on 

711
00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,080
top of that. 
Oh, we need a technological 

712
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:56,960
budget, and I'm pretty sure 
there was. 

713
00:37:56,960 --> 00:37:59,040
Second, we need a technological 
budget or what? 

714
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:02,720
We need whatever maintenance 
fee. 

715
00:38:02,720 --> 00:38:05,320
You know, all the all the weird 
fees that they start adding on 

716
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:06,760
this. 
And then after that they're 

717
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:10,320
like, OK, and then let's just 
add like 5% on top for for any 

718
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:12,040
in case of any emergencies and 
whatnot. 

719
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,480
Oh, we've arrived at 39%. 
Oh well, I guess this is the 

720
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:16,600
number then. 
It's ridiculous. 

721
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:17,920
You're need to. 
This is why my own. 

722
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:22,160
This is like artists. 
Artists and moving like, oh, we 

723
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,800
can move into it. 
I see what you did there, bro. 

724
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,920
That's an amazing segue. 
That's an amazing segue. 

725
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:29,960
People are really people are 
really trying to. 

726
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,280
They're trying to. 
I mean at this point like it's 

727
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:35,360
just educate yourself on the 
music business and just on that 

728
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,520
point there's a lot of, if you 
really look, segue, suffer. 

729
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,160
Sorry. 
Nothing. 

730
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,160
You know, I listen to this back.
I listen to it back. 

731
00:38:45,240 --> 00:38:47,920
So you can't run away. 
I said you're the Segway surfer,

732
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,640
you know, like the Subway surfer
in the Segway Surfer. 

733
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:58,960
Anyway, you are telling us about
my own day, my own day. 

734
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,120
So, no. 
So before you get into that, so 

735
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:04,960
there's a lot of, if you really 
look closely, there's a lot of 

736
00:39:05,720 --> 00:39:08,920
small initiatives being done 
around Nairobi. 

737
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:15,840
There's like, like I know for 
about a there's like an IP 

738
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:19,120
workshop that's been done. 
It's by by I think it's by 

739
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,080
Harvard, actually, if I'm not 
wrong, there's an IP workshop 

740
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,080
that's been done by Harvard. 
It's it's ongoing. 

741
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:27,440
It's almost towards the end, but
it's ongoing where there's like 

742
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:30,920
people who are experts, lawyers,
IP lawyers come and teach about 

743
00:39:31,240 --> 00:39:33,000
intellectual property and how to
go about that. 

744
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,280
There's different, different 
education. 

745
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,800
I've seen maybe two or three 
already different education 

746
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,000
initiatives that have been done,
so if you're really interested, 

747
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:46,400
it's really not difficult 
information to find out. 

748
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:48,040
Google it. 
I wish I had all of them in 

749
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:49,800
front of in front of me. 
I would have told you I'd 

750
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:55,080
probably go research them, but. 
Well, there's also the Perform 

751
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:56,880
Incubator. 
Yes, yes. 

752
00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:58,360
Yeah. 
So that's actually one of the 

753
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:03,280
ones I'm talking about. 
So my under, my under was 

754
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:05,040
probably read this news like 
beforehand. 

755
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:06,240
It's just like fab. 
You know it. 

756
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:11,680
I am going to learn about this 
myself, so shout out to her. 

757
00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:13,640
Shout out to everyone who is, 
who is that? 

758
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:15,000
I don't really have much on 
that. 

759
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,360
It's just shout out to everyone 
who is really trying to to go 

760
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,360
and learn and so that we can 
have people who come back with 

761
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:24,480
different knowledge because the 
knowledge we have now is not it.

762
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:27,080
It's just not working. 
It's old school. 

763
00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:32,040
It's archaic. 
It's it's ridiculous, she says. 

764
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:34,200
I've, I've been in school. 
I was part of a program called 

765
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:37,480
the PMI Performance Perform 
Music Incubator that was founded

766
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:40,200
by Muthoni, the drama queen, 
which is really cool Muthoni is 

767
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:41,800
doing. 
Shout out to MDQ. 

768
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:44,200
For the music business, It's a 
music Business School and I've 

769
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:46,680
been in in it for about 3 years 
learning about the business side

770
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:50,800
of music. 
I was very frustrated as an 

771
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:54,040
artist, an artist with an E at 
the end, because that's fancy. 

772
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:57,040
I'd been doing music, but I 
wasn't getting any meaningful 

773
00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:59,360
returns. 
So I went to school to learn how

774
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,640
to grow my brand and use it to 
make money and understand the 

775
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:05,360
business side of music. 
And it's it's learning about in 

776
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:07,920
learning about about your brand,
learning about these things. 

777
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:09,920
You begin to learn because it's 
attached to the music industry, 

778
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:10,960
right. 
So you begin to learn a lot 

779
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,120
about the music industry and how
to move within the music 

780
00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:15,560
industry. 
And then you then you learn, you

781
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:21,080
then learn about what happens 
because I think they would use a

782
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,160
lot of examples of things that 
have worked, right. 

783
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:27,440
So what happens when you 
actually have systems in place? 

784
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:30,160
And then now, when your eyes are
open to that, when you're awoke,

785
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:36,280
when you're awake, then you can 
now see, OK, this is where our 

786
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:38,840
industry is lacking. 
And if you have that passion, 

787
00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:48,400
you can either one enact change 
yourself or connect and and 

788
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,120
mobilize the people who can who 
can enact the change. 

789
00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:54,920
So I'm all for this man. 
Shout out to her with only the 

790
00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:58,560
drama queen who is apparently is
seems to be the one who is 

791
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:01,680
spearheading that it was founded
by her and everyone who the 

792
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:06,480
different lawyers who are really
looking to educate a lot of 

793
00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:09,600
people about the music industry.
It's it's necessary bro. 

794
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:14,440
Because where we are, farm, 
farm, they're treating, they're 

795
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:17,560
treating music royalty 
collections like a dating, like 

796
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:20,040
one of these Netflix dating 
shows is what they're treating 

797
00:42:20,720 --> 00:42:23,240
like that's where we're headed, 
bro, anyway. 

798
00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:28,120
Love is Blind CMO Edition. 
That's what this is, man. 

799
00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:29,640
This is ridiculous. 
Bro, what is? 

800
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,560
That's how they're determining 
who the next CMO will be. 

801
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,360
Get into a room, but you can't 
see each other. 

802
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:39,040
You can just fall in love and 
marry after after what, get 

803
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:40,600
engaged after what, one week? 
Yeah. 

804
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:42,720
That's why it's wired. 
By the way how do this, all 

805
00:42:42,720 --> 00:42:44,080
this. 
First of they're very 

806
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:45,960
entertaining. 
I think they're entertaining 

807
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:47,480
because a lot of people don't 
have lives out here. 

808
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:50,040
We're we're just, we're we're 
living vicariously through them.

809
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:55,520
I love. 
I love trash TV man CMO Island. 

810
00:42:55,760 --> 00:43:03,880
Who will be the next CMO? 
Oh man, we need prayers. 

811
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,040
We need we need prayers. 
Either we need prayers, we need 

812
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:08,720
prayers or just a nice beating. 
Like they just need to bend us 

813
00:43:08,720 --> 00:43:11,280
over and get a paddle and walk 
us on our bottoms. 

814
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:13,280
Is that weird to say? 
Do you know who else needs 

815
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:15,400
prayers some? 
Who needs prayers, bro? 

816
00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:19,840
Ben Soul and Cindy K Man, have 
you heard the are? 

817
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:23,360
We doing this. 
Bro, yes, we're doing this. 

818
00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:25,680
We're doing this. 
So listen, Ben Soul. 

819
00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:29,720
Ridiculous. 
Anyway, so listen, listen, 

820
00:43:29,720 --> 00:43:33,640
listen. 
Anyway, there was just like an 

821
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:36,640
interesting article I saw about 
him and his relationship with 

822
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,640
Cindy K, and it's actually. 
It's all you ISO, this ISO, this

823
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:40,880
ISO and alpham let's. 
Listen. 

824
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:44,680
No, no, no, no. 
It's just that the web, the web 

825
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,520
of lies. 
The web of mistrust, the web of 

826
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:50,680
of just like exes, it's it's 
it's immense. 

827
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:55,000
You know like Ben Saul with 
Cindy K but Cindy K happened to 

828
00:43:55,000 --> 00:44:01,480
be Ben Saul's ex's best friend. 
And then Cindy K was dating Shaq

829
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,720
the Yanging. 
But then she cheated on Shaq the

830
00:44:04,720 --> 00:44:07,960
yanging with Shaq the Yanging's 
best friend. 

831
00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,600
I mean the centre of this web of
lies and web of like the. 

832
00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:16,920
Nairobi, But like the streets. 
Goodness the streets, Nairobi. 

833
00:44:19,720 --> 00:44:22,400
Anyway, that's just me being 
silly. 

834
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:24,080
No, no. 
But that was wild. 

835
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:26,120
That's kind of wild, man. 
That's kind of wild. 

836
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:28,880
It's kind of, it's such a weird 
story. 

837
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:32,960
It's. 
Honestly, I don't even be 

838
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:36,080
knowing these people. 
I can tell you for a fact like 

839
00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:39,840
reading this article is the 
first time I heard of Cindy K So

840
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:44,000
I I don't even be knowing this 
like drama, but like it. 

841
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:46,360
It seems like it's interesting, 
right? 

842
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:47,880
Would you date? 
Would you? 

843
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:51,920
Would you Would you date your 
best friend's ex? 

844
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:54,880
No, no. 
Why not? 

845
00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:57,080
What's the code behind that? 
What's the code behind that? 

846
00:44:57,240 --> 00:45:01,040
There is broke. 
There is a solid bro behind not 

847
00:45:01,240 --> 00:45:02,280
going back. 
You know what I. 

848
00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:05,880
Realized I realized that the bro
code is only within the Bros, 

849
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:09,400
like a lot of the times they 
don't be caring as much as we 

850
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,720
do. 
Nah, listen me. 

851
00:45:11,720 --> 00:45:15,240
I care like if it if it's my if 
it's my bro ski and this is 

852
00:45:15,240 --> 00:45:19,720
somebody he was dating right. 
I'm not going back there like 

853
00:45:19,720 --> 00:45:23,880
for anything like you could. 
There's no even at at going to 

854
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:26,160
ask them at yo by day yo, I'm. 
Talking. 

855
00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,240
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Not not going to check the 

856
00:45:28,240 --> 00:45:30,720
temperature. 
See, see, see if the streets are

857
00:45:30,720 --> 00:45:31,720
clear. 
You're not doing that. 

858
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:33,960
There's no checking the 
temperatures. 

859
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,800
There's nothing like that. 
So me personally, I think it's 

860
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:40,280
kind of weird doing that. 
But like, hey, listen, I'm not 

861
00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:43,360
the custodian of relationships. 
You all do what you want to do. 

862
00:45:44,720 --> 00:45:48,000
So anyway, new music, Sam. 
Speaking of custodian of 

863
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:49,680
relationship, I thought that's 
what you're going to do. 

864
00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:52,800
All right, new music, Dan. 
What was he listening to? 

865
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:56,880
Of course Butcher's dropped 
shout out to him with this. 

866
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,920
Is this his debut album now for 
for sure, Because he's been 

867
00:45:59,920 --> 00:46:00,400
saying. 
It is. 

868
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:01,240
It is. 
This is. 

869
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:02,720
Like 5 debut albums. 
Already. 

870
00:46:03,240 --> 00:46:05,920
No, no, no, no, no, no. 
This is the debut. 

871
00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:10,960
Let's do umoja sounds. 
Umoja sounds Frederick Muller 

872
00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:16,120
Dang provoke. 
And I think there's someone else

873
00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,520
in that group, if I'm not wrong,
but I hope I'm not wrong. 

874
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:21,600
I'll be really, really awkward 
if I'm wrong. 

875
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:24,600
But they dropped a project 
called Umoja Sounds Presents 

876
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:30,080
Flavour and that is it has it. 
It features Frederick Mullen and

877
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:32,080
BT really good joints on there. 
I like the last song. 

878
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:33,440
It was very instrumental, very 
chill. 

879
00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:35,960
It's very unexpected. 
But they did what they did. 

880
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,360
Friend for Life by Papa. 
I really enjoyed that song. 

881
00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:41,400
It's different. 
It's different. 

882
00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:42,400
It's different. 
It's cool. 

883
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,320
I don't know if you if you if 
you peeped. 

884
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:48,600
Did you peep? 
Yes, yes, you put me on and

Sabi Wu, they released Ziza Wadi
manga. 

898
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:35,720
It's actually part of a project,
I think, for Mr. Frank White. 

899
00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:37,640
I listened to the project, it 
was it was pretty cool. 

900
00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:39,960
There were a couple of songs I I
rocked with on there. 

901
00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:45,280
X-ray Tanua and Silverstone bars
with AZ release a song called 

902
00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:47,200

00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:59,040
Urban Tone. 
Urban Tone is still doing its 

907
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:02,080

You know, listen. 
Because Rich was rich was also 

911

Was that Gasolina? 

912
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:12,800
Of of was. 
Was that Gasolina that they saw?

913
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,360
Yes, yes, they just straight up,
Sam. 

914
00:48:15,720 --> 00:48:20,080
Listen, me, I told you, I'm I'm

915
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,120

enjoying. 

916
00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:25,600
Listen, why are we thinking 
about the future? 

917
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:27,040
Don't think about. 
Don't think about it now. 

918
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:30,080
And now what's happening is 
we're enjoying it and that's all

919
00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:32,920

Anyway, yeah, it's Yabba who

922
00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:40,880
now, so it's good to see the 
project out. 

923
00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:42,800
I need to sit down and give that
a nice listen. 

924
00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:45,200
That's cool. 
Afam, what were you? 

925
00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:46,160
What are you rocking with? 
What? 

926
00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:51,720
What did you? 
There was Craze Man by Guido and

927
00:48:51,720 --> 00:48:53,360
Caleb Awiti. 
Nigerian. 

928
00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:55,640
I think. 
That's that Kenya Niger 

929
00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:58,920
connection. 
Shout out to that connection. 

930
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:05,480
There was what they heard by 
basic City and Rumbi and Tihani.

931
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:08,640
Yeah, so shout out to them as 
well. 

932
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:14,000
What else did I listen to? 
Oh Kamasi way by Kanji and 

933
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:14,880
Pambi. 
Oh yo. 

934
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:19,360
I was actually like see, seeing 
kanji like on the on the 

935
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:22,040
playlist was really dope and 
really nostalgic. 

936
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:27,240
And I yo. 
Actually, before I even expand 

937
00:49:27,240 --> 00:49:31,200
on that, I also listened to Bury
My Face by Boy Lee Tyru three 

938
00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:34,920
Punch and DJ Prod Luigi and I 
just wanted to shout them out 

939
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,480
because like it was kind of 
interesting like the high 

940
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:40,800
pitched sample and then not 
sample but like the vocals. 

941
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:42,280
Yeah, yeah. 
Yeah. 

942
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:44,960
And very, yeah, I like, I like 
that experimental. 

943
00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:47,000
But yeah, yeah, back to Kamasi 
way. 

944
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:48,680
I think that was my favorite 
release. 

945
00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:54,240
This. 
That's 517 of course, aside from

946
00:49:54,240 --> 00:49:55,360
Tinder and the music I worked 
on. 

947
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:58,000
But like, this one was really 
nice and yes, unexpected. 

948
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:00,200
I mean, it's it's gospel music. 
It's just really. 

949
00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:03,560
Honestly, we realized we haven't
really played much gospel on 

950
00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:04,480
this project. 
It's not. 

951
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:08,600
Not because we don't listen to 
well we haven't really played 

952
00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:11,520
much gospel on this project so 
it'd be good just to feature and

953
00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:13,680
we're not we're not this is not 
and this is not for me. 

954
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:16,160
This is not like we're we're 
just featuring a gospel song to 

955
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:19,720
to check the the inclusion box. 
But the song was generally good 

956
00:50:19,720 --> 00:50:21,480
on Kanjin Bogo is a very good 
songwriter. 

957
00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:24,840
The production was also really, 
really decent. 

958
00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:26,120
There's a lot of guitars on that
joint. 

959
00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:30,280
A lot of guitars. 
So yeah we I'll pick this week 

960
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:33,160
there's I mean there's a lot of 
other music listen go check. 

961
00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:36,960
There's people like there's 
people making playlists on 

962
00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:39,440
Canyon music. 
Yeah. 

963
00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:42,040
Yeah, they're all over. 
If you look for them, you'll 

964
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:43,520
find them. 
But it's really cool to keep up 

965
00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:45,800
with what's happening. 
What's been released anyway. 

966
00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:46,800
Kamasi. 
Where? 

967
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:50,320
By Kanjin, Bugua and Pambio. 
If I'm pronouncing that right, 

968
00:50:50,920 --> 00:52:10,320
that is the song we're playing. 
I 

969
00:52:20,920 --> 00:53:00,320
the, 
the, 

970
00:53:40,320 --> 00:54:21,240
the 
I come on. 

971
00:54:54,560 --> 00:54:59,280
That was Kamasi way by Kanji and
Pam Leo shout out to them. 

972
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:02,000
That's going to be what are the 
churches all over? 

973
00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:02,720
I'm. 
Sure. 

974
00:55:02,720 --> 00:55:06,480
All over the country I'm sure. 
Oh Sam I I briefly I forgot to 

975
00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:10,240
mention there was also another 
song that came out called 

976
00:55:10,280 --> 00:55:12,440
Underwater. 
There was a music video with 

977
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:16,160
Benzema and Sabi Wu. 
So shout out to both of them for

978
00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:23,160
releasing Yo Sam. 
That was episode 77 of the 30% 

979
00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:26,320
podcast. 
Shout out to you. 

980
00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:29,160
The thing shout out to you as 
well. 

981
00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:30,800
Oh no. 
The thing I'm not feeling the 

982
00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:35,000
most is. 
Oh, I'm sorry. 

983
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:35,960
Go ahead. 
I'm sorry. 

984
00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:37,320
I'm sorry. 
That was rude of me. 

985
00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:41,400
That's hilarious. 
All right. 

986
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,800
But yeah, the vibe I'm just 
leaving this podcast with is 

987
00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:48,040
man, our CMOS. 
Just you don't need to apply for

988
00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:49,880
the dating show. 
They shouldn't even be apply. 

989
00:55:49,880 --> 00:55:52,520
They shouldn't even be a big 
three at this point. 

990
00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:54,720
Who should? 
Yo Kanye should just come and 

991
00:55:54,720 --> 00:55:56,840
say yo listen, this is actually,
we didn't talk about it. 

992
00:55:56,840 --> 00:55:58,640
We didn't touch that angle. 
But this is also a perfect 

993
00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:01,120
opportunity for. 
People outside to come in and 

994
00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:03,480
and. 
Take the whole beef some. 

995
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:05,920
Oh, we didn't talk about the 
beef. 

996
00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:09,440
Oh man, it didn't. 
But but listen, it's getting 

997
00:56:09,440 --> 00:56:11,240
messy. 
It's getting messy right now 

998
00:56:11,240 --> 00:56:13,240
bro. 
Like me personally, I think 

999
00:56:13,240 --> 00:56:15,720
Drake's. 
I know you think it's made, but 

1000
00:56:15,720 --> 00:56:19,080
I think Drake. 
'S both Drake and Ross. 

1001
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:24,920
Was fire that Drake delivered. 
In my opinion, Drake delivered. 

1002
00:56:24,920 --> 00:56:26,000
Yes, I know. 
He did deliver. 

1003
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:28,320
No, he did deliver. 
He delivered in, in the sense 

1004
00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:31,600
that he addressed, he addressed,
he addressed everything. 

1005
00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:33,440
I just feel like the song was. 
And it's 20. 

1006
00:56:33,720 --> 00:56:37,200
And listen, it's 20 versus 1. 
It's like Drake versus everyone.

1007
00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:39,560
J. 
Cole has bowed out everybody 

1008
00:56:39,880 --> 00:56:41,240
shamelessly. 
Honestly, I think. 

1009
00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:44,720
I think, listen, may I think 
these guys are corny because 

1010
00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:49,440
like, like, like no, because 
listen because these guys waited

1011
00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:52,800
for the big guy as AKA Kendrick 
to say something. 

1012
00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:54,240
Before they start shooting at 
yeah. 

1013
00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:56,640
That's true. 
Now they're all shooting at him.

1014
00:56:56,920 --> 00:56:59,560
Like, I think that's jumping on 
the way like the the there was 

1015
00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:00,160
those guys. 
Why? 

1016
00:57:00,160 --> 00:57:02,000
Why didn't we cross come out and
say this? 

1017
00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:04,280
It's those guys you know like 
when you have a when you had 

1018
00:57:04,280 --> 00:57:07,040
fights in high school and and of
course I when neither of us got 

1019
00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:08,680
into fights and neither of us 
got into fights. 

1020
00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:12,560
But when we see the other guys 
the the the other the guys that 

1021
00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:16,600
rejects having fights and random
people jump in just to get their

1022
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:19,080
frustration of or they hated 
their homework for last week 

1023
00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:21,080
let's let's kick a a bully on 
the. 

1024
00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:25,400
I mean the whoever we're ganging
up against on the ground just to

1025
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:27,680
get that off and say Oh no, 
yeah, we fought, we fought and 

1026
00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:30,760
then stupid just. 
I really wonder what Drake did 

1027
00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:33,200
to all these guys, because they 
seemingly all. 

1028
00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:35,120
Hate him. 
Drake is suffering from success.

1029
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:38,960
Speaking of Speaking of, what's 
going to happen to DJ Khaled 

1030
00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:41,520
because all the people on his 
next album are fighting against.

1031
00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:45,320
So the bro they're all fighting.
They're all DJ Khaled is the 

1032
00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:48,600
biggest loser from all of this. 
By the way, I I feel so bad for 

1033
00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:50,320
dude bro. 
Oh man. 

1034
00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:51,760
His next album is just going to 
be Khaled. 

1035
00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:53,200
His might have to take up 
rapping now. 

1036
00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:55,600
Khaled might have to. 
So he actually might. 

1037
00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:58,360
It'll just be like we the best. 
Exactly. 

1038
00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:00,920
The whole project just delays 
and be the best and maybe go go 

1039
00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:02,840
to the girlies now because even 
the girlies are fighting. 

1040
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:06,040
So I don't know, fam hip this 
is, hip hop is. 

1041
00:58:06,040 --> 00:58:07,480
Hip hop is. 
They're trying to, they're 

1042
00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:08,800
trying to get a little bit out 
of here. 

1043
00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:10,160
That's what these guys are 
doing. 

1044
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:12,320
So city girls. 
Are fighting. 

1045
00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:16,720
See The thing is, podcast is 
like in disarray like bro, 

1046
00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:19,000
everything is just. 
Like maybe it has something to 

1047
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:20,560
do with that eclipse. 
I think it's the eclipse. 

1048
00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:24,160
The eclipse activated. 
Oh man, yeah, let's let's blame 

1049
00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:26,720
the eclipse. 
Eclipse activated, activated 

1050
00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:28,480
some problems, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah. 

1051
00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:31,800
But anyway, listen, may have 
picked a side. 

1052
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:35,720
Me, I'm on me, I'm on the side 
of Mr. Of course Drake. 

1053
00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:37,520
Of course Drake. 
In nature, bro. 

1054
00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:39,120
Bro. 
What a guy, bro. 

1055
00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:41,880
I'm going to be the I just want 
to see everyone rap. 

1056
00:58:42,040 --> 00:58:43,240
I actually think this whole 
thing is corny. 

1057
00:58:43,240 --> 00:58:45,440
Like this is ridiculous to me. 
Like there's a grown men writing

1058
00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:48,240
poems about each other, very 
aggressive poems about each 

1059
00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:48,600
other. 
It's. 

1060
00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:50,920
Ridiculous fire. 
I feel like Hip Hop is back, 

1061
00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:54,600
bro. 
Hip Hop is back in the back, but

1062
00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:56,520
guys, the. 
Industry is tired of rubbish. 

1063
00:58:57,280 --> 00:58:59,320
They've had enough of remma and 
I restart. 

1064
00:58:59,720 --> 00:59:02,920
If you're if you're a conspiracy
theorist, that's your take away 

1065
00:59:02,920 --> 00:59:05,800
from this, because honestly, 
this is very happening, 

1066
00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:08,800
happening at a convenient time. 
When hip hop was. 

1067
00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:12,560
Kind of waning. 
So I feel like they're like 

1068
00:59:12,560 --> 00:59:14,960
trying to like, make Hip Hop 
great again. 

1069
00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:17,400
Maha. 
Anyway, anyway, that's that, 

1070
00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:19,120
man. 
Listen, guys, excited. 

1071
00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:23,240
Listen, that was episode 72, 
Guys. 

1072
00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:26,800
I like, I've been trying to push
man the three CS bro. 

1073
00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:29,760
I always want you guys to 
remember, please, please, please

1074
00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:33,600
be confident in your work. 
Confidence is key. 

1075
00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:36,960
You have to exude that because 
people can. 

1076
00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:39,480
People feed off of your 
confidence. 

1077
00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:42,240
If you're confident about your 
stuff, even if it's not great, 

1078
00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:46,000
people kind of tend to, like, 
believe in you just based off of

1079
00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:49,560
your confidence. 
Always be consistent. 

1080
00:59:49,640 --> 00:59:51,600
You have to keep on putting on 
music. 

1081
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:55,400
You have to keep on doing this 
music thing like because 

1082
00:59:55,400 --> 00:59:57,920
honestly, you can't take long 
hiatuses. 

1083
00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:00,760
We're we're living in a time 
where there's just so many 

1084
01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:02,040
people doing music. 
So. 

1085
01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:05,040
Please, please, please be 
consistent.

01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:21,040
Work on your craft man, every 
single day. 

1092
01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:24,680
Even if you're doing the 
smallest thing, that could be 

1093
01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:27,160
equivalent to doing just like 5 
sit ups. 

1094
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:31,680
Like just do that, you know but 
in the music industry and you'll

1095
01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:33,480
be good man. 
If you follow those three CS, 

1096
01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:37,160

1098
01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:40,000
Sign out. 
There's something I've been 

1099
01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:42,120
living by and it's actually it's
my wallpaper, which I could show

1100
01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:43,440
you. 
It's not really that 

1101
01:00:43,440 --> 01:00:45,760
interesting, it says. 
It's just a simple quote. 

1102
01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:49,160
If there's something you want to
do later, do it now. 

1103
01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:52,920
There is no later. 
That is the procrastinators 

1104
01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:56,960
medicine right there. 
The procrastinators around the 

1105
01:00:56,960 --> 01:00:58,560
world hate you right now, bro. 
What? 

1106
01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:00,680
Fox It's going to be, it's going
to be me if I said the 

1107
01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:02,080
procrastinators. 
But yeah, if there's something 

1108
01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:03,880
you want to do, I mean, that's 
just basically saying, I know 

1109
01:01:03,880 --> 01:01:06,200
sometimes we put things off 
because we're we're we're 

1110
01:01:06,320 --> 01:01:08,400
waiting for the right time, 
we're waiting for the moon and 

1111
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:11,440
the sun to align, we're waiting 
for whatever it is. 

1112
01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:15,120
Those things really happen and a
lot of times we're in control of

1113
01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:18,520
our own path. 
Destiny, right. 

1114
01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:23,000
So you doing The thing is making
the thing happen. 

1115
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:24,560
Not waiting, is making the 
thing. 

1116
01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:28,520
You doing the thing at the time 
you thought about doing it is 

1117
01:01:28,520 --> 01:01:31,000
the perfect time to do it. 
Not waiting for a perfect time 

1118
01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:32,560
before you do it. 
I don't know if that makes 

1119
01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:34,280
sense, makes a lot of sense in 
my head, but that is it. 

1120
01:01:34,280 --> 01:01:36,360
If there's something you want to
do later, do it now. 

1121
01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:41,800
There is no later and that is 7 
T two.

1126
01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:57,320
