Starting point is 00:00:03 Now here I am thinking to myself, NBA young boy was just in prison, right? He was just in prison and he just was released from prison. And now he's going on a tour and just guess what the title of the tour is. Just guess what the title of the tour is. Well, if you haven't guessed it by now, it is titled Massa Tour. But then you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on?
Starting point is 00:00:29 Now, as a black man in America, whenever I hear the word, Massa, I do not think make America slime again, which is what he's trying to say their abbreviation stands for it. The way I'm thinking for what I'm thinking about is the actual massive term that's been engraved in black people's brains for quite some time as far as the 500 plus year period where we were enslaved and the unthinkable was happening to us, right? There was this term that was thrown around that was massive, right? And it was used by enslaved people to a address the white slave holder or overseer. Now hold on now. I know NBA young boy did not just get out of prison and how he got out of prison only God knows, right? But one could say, I'm no
Starting point is 00:01:17 conspiracy theories, but one could say the people who helped him get out of prison is the same people who's about to eat off of this tour. And what is the title? But then you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like what's going on? M. B and young boy being helped as far as the process of getting him out of prison and then going on this mass tour is beyond sickening in my opinion now it may not be that that serious for other people they probably just actually think make america slime again is the reason why it's titled the mass of tour it's probably the same people that believe young thug in court when he said that thug stood for truly humble under god i know that ain't who i think it is young thug facing a life
Starting point is 00:02:08 sentence said to the judge with a straight face that thug meant truly humble under god i know that ladies and gentlemen when i tell you egregious things are happening in hip-hop and nobody's pointing it out nobody's acting like this stuff is blasphemous right so here i am time and time again to let the obvious be known and be shown that this is not acceptable while you coming out of prison putting out a tour titled master when we already know all of the hands in your pot as far as helping you out on the charts and now when it comes to you being a free man they've helped you out to the point when now you have to title your tour massa maybe i'm looking too deep into it but y'all let me know so anyways uh this tour is produced by live nation so that definitely means he's in
Starting point is 00:02:57 great hands as if you don't know lob nation is the big dogs when it comes to the touring industry to the point where i even covered them because of them being such of a uh ginormous power in the live stream and atmosphere as let me see yeah okay back at october 24 well october 7th 2024 i covered doge having a lawsuit against lob nation slash ticket master why is there a lawsuit Because essentially speaking, the suit alleges that Live Nation allegedly monopolize the live events industry leading to inflated ticket prices, reduced competition, and harm to artists and fans alike. So if you want to hear that segment, just type in Lob Nation analytic dreams or the Z and it should pop up. Anyways, so already covered that in detail. But essentially speaking, NBA Young Boy is under one of the more powerful brands in touring.
Starting point is 00:03:54 So he should be straight as far as selling out these. arenas and even when it comes to selling out arenas right you get to find out that state farm arena came out uh today no yes yesterday and they basically said due to phenomenal fan demand a second show has been added on saturday october 18th for nba young boy to mass a tour at state farm arena get your pre-sell tickets for both shows tomorrow may 21st at 12 p.m. local with code Atlanta this is not an ad i'm just letting you know that the sales for the NBA young boy tour is doing phenomenal right now so anyways that's why i brought that up but essentially speaking if you want to know the entire track listing uh not trick listing the whole entire tour date in how long he's going to be on tour
Starting point is 00:04:44 just go to analytic dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with audio because currently i have all the dates up as he's touring from september 2nd to october 19 and of course i just covered the surprise track with Kanye West as they have a surprise track out on the internet titled Alive. And when I tell you, that track is beyond phenomenal. And I'm not even sugar-coding it a bit, like, not even a little bit. It is a straightfire. So anyways, when it comes to that, the ticketing and prices, you have the pre-sale that has already been on sale as far as May 18th.
Starting point is 00:05:17 And that's already passed, right? So there's New Orleans pre-sale code as far as Red Stick. The Stubhubb Hub prices as as of right now. now and Houston is starting at 200 Los Angeles is starting at 130 but the lowest available tour wide is $89 so of course I believe if you dig deep enough you should be able to find prices for this tour that's acceptable as far as your bank account because when it comes to NBN young boy you know how all the critique is that young boy has YouTube fans that doesn't want to pay for anything well I can't tell because this tour is performing phenomenally when it comes
Starting point is 00:05:54 comes to sales and pre-sell tickets. So anyways, there's VIP packages that includes premium seating, exclusive merch slash gift packs, backstage tours, pre-show lounge access, and then of course the opening acts. At first, I thought it was the baby, but it's actually D-E-E-B-A-B-Y. I know it's hard to keep up with these rappers nowadays, but I've never heard of the baby, so that's why I thought it was the baby. anyways but that being said e bk j bow is also on tour and then k3 is the last opening act for the tour so you have d baby not the baby d baby e bk j bow k3 and then of course uh n b and young boy comes out after that and then you
Starting point is 00:06:45 have the career ultimate status of mb young boy how he's just one of the more prominent figures in a hip-hop game and unbeknownst to a lot of people he actually already has an entire album out you know as far as this year march 7th uh 2025 a whole entire album came out from young boy titled more leaks so we already received new music from m being young boy in the year of 2025 and he has a single titled shot callin that i believe is the latest offering from him yeah may 6th 2025 i'm not talking about the conier surprise track alive because that's currently not out on d s That's more of just a I don't even know what that is. I mean, being on the contract, dropping music for free on the internet,
Starting point is 00:07:28 I know that his label is heated. But anyways, with that being said, if you didn't know, Young Boy is under Motown Records. Now, more specifically, let me see, where Motown Records is. So we have Motown Records and then is it under, okay. So Young Boy is under Motown Records. and then never broke again LLC. And then Motown Records is a subsidiary of the big dogs in the music group,
Starting point is 00:08:00 in the music industry as far as Universal Music Group. If you don't know, he's, as far as Live Nation and Universal Music Group being, or having a hand and the execution of this tour and maybe a hand in him getting out of prison, let's just say now I totally understand why this tour is titled the Massa Tour. you guys see that's the problem if you don't know you universal music group currently does not have a stronghold like they used to have but it's still a whopping 47 percent of the entire music market share right usually they're in the high 50s to to low 60s right now is at 47 percent i think the numbers are kind of skewed a little bit because technically drake and party next
Starting point is 00:08:43 door have the fifth most play album in the world and they're under uh sony for the credit for the album but technically Drake's a UMG artist so that's why I say the numbers are skewed a little bit anyways uh there there are a lot of to be fair Sony has the second highest with 26 but you see that drop off from 47 to 26 like UMG always has that strong hold over the entire music industry so as far as Sony artists i mean you have sleep token uh scyza you have uh Drake and party next door which drake's a UMG artist but because it's a collab album and of course because he's still in UMG you know they gave the credit to Sony even though UMG still gets points off of it I'm talking about the overall crediting when you look at billboard so then you have a fresa regita there's a lot of
Starting point is 00:09:31 sony artists in the top 10 and usually that's filled with UMG artists so hopefully our UMG and drake comes to some type of settlement sometime soon because that lawsuit is still going i don't know if y'all know but my coverage of the Drake lawsuit has been extensive pause y'all already know you guys see that's the problem when it comes to Drake and the lawsuit I cut the last time I covered that was April 24 of 2025 I believe let me see yeah so I if you just type in Drake analytic dreams it will pop up so with that being said that's all I had to say Young boy is going to do phenomenally especially with this upcoming album especially with this tour so that's not the sentiments that I'm trying to spread as far as me
Starting point is 00:10:13 thinking or you think it's gonna underperform which if you listen to the entire segment you definitely know at this point with everything i just threw at you it is not going to underperform in the slightest so uh with that being said um the tour starts september 2nd in dallas texas it ends october 19th in new orleans l a well new Orleans louisiana so um ultimately click my link in my bio let me know in one of my social medias why do y'all think that this nbain young boy tour is titled the massa tour
