because I felt like when I was trying to
8:17
break into music media and entertainment
8:18
I felt like there was really no
8:20
resources or anywhere to go to learn
8:21
about how to break into the industry so
8:23
I created that you know so I created
8:25
that space so people can come and learn
8:28
um and then also to um just have access

8:44
media you can do that you have access to
8:45

12:33
the bay and then me and my man naels and
12:35
the whole team from red coral we G to
12:37
bring it down to La our judges so far
12:40
have been Eric Surman King crooked Rod
12:42
Digger and my man nails and when we come
12:45
to La it's official now we got DJ head
12:48
who's going to be a part of our La
12:51
show so man we going to need you to get
12:54
all the dopest producers dopest MC's who
12:57
want to be a part of this it's going to
12:58
be it's going to come in a few weeks do
13:01
you accept the offer I accept the
13:05
offer Nails we got them I'm in bro I
13:08
think it's an amazing platform you
13:10
always provide platform and I think this
13:12
is dope off also there's nobody really
13:14
just like a lot of these different
13:16
platforms and shows and whatnot they
13:18
give the artist the money but it'd be
13:20
stipulations tied to it it' be like oh
13:22
you got to sign to us to our production
13:24
deal or you got to spend the money with
13:25
us and all that kind of stuff so I
13:27
really like you know when you explained
13:28
it to me with what Y what y'all doing
13:30
and what you building so I'm I'm in
13:32
everybody who's a part of this show
13:34
which is different and this is a credit
13:35
to Larry and the guys over at R red
13:37
coral which is a new platform that we're
13:39
partnering up with if you're on that
13:41
show you will get equity in that show
13:43
you will get backend royalty so the most
13:45
that most every time it's a stream
13:48
everybody even people who audition and
13:50
don't go for it they still get paid from
13:52
it and so that's the new you know we
13:55
heard about uh the story with Jay-Z and
13:57
those guys teaming up with a partnering
13:59
up with a company to make sure that
14:01
artists are getting the proprietorship
14:03
in their music it's the same thing with
14:05
this with uh beats and bars everybody
14:07
will get proprietorship in the show that
14:10
participate so you going to get some
14:11
money in your hand and on the back
14:13
because it's that V we bring that value
14:15
to it and it has to be recognized and
14:17
we'd be foolish to do shows like this if
14:19
everybody can't benefit from it all
14:21
right so welcome aboard man let me read
