What's going on our internet, analytic here, aka Dreams, and I would like to welcome you to mine, which I call the notorious mass effect podcast. I'm your gaming and music, news source diving deep into both industries with data-driven analysis to give you a clearer understanding of both cultures. Now, with that being said, of course, the episode for today is one, which is obviously the notorious mass effect episode 145 titled could marvel rivals take home game of the year and obviously you see the cover for the episode right there as far as us getting into a plethora of topics on both the music and gaming industry even though marvel rivals is going to be a pivotal play until this entire episode before i break down to rest of the topics let's get into a life update because of course that is a consistent thing i've always wanted to have in the beginning of the episodes and y'all seem to like it so we're going

to keep doing that so that being considered obviously December just passed and with that i do believe that not only is christmas christmas such a great time just for the overall positive factor of everybody being nice to one another because guess what it's supposedly the best time of the year so with that being said all the christmas anthems are popping up left and right spending time with friends spending time with family spending time with the ones that you deem to have a positive impact on your life right so that being said i did a lot of that and took a little hiatus and by hiatus obviously i was still posting consistently on the podcast but when it comes to to overall output I definitely scaled it back a little bit to go on a mini vacation so

that being said a lot of the instances that happened while I was relaxing is basically just spending time with family close ones you know definitely recharge recharging my content creator battery because if you don't know this would never be harder than a nine to five as far as the mental aspect it definitely is great to take some time to yourself to just simply live life because obviously you recharging your content creator battery is what matters most as far as me specifically but for you you recharging your emotional battery is just as important as being with family and close ones can definitely help rejuvenate your spirit in general and just help you all overall in life

as far as reducing stress and just leaning on your emotional support. Because not only was I spending time with family, both of my parents' birthdays was in December. The whole family was together as far as the entire extended family and obviously my parents and my sibling, right? But honestly, when it comes to creating memories, that's one of my favorite times of the year because you, can never get too much time with the people in your family tree for the simple fact that there's a lot of unique traditions and cultures that you come from that you learn more about if you hang around the ones that are older than you in your family tree you learn a lot that you otherwise wouldn't have if you didn't spend that time with them so with that being said of course strengthening relationships

was another thing so i spent a lot of time with close friends and definitely was very happy to be able to celebrate one of my close friends birthday because that was one of my, obviously, close friends growing up. So that was great. And then ultimately, that whole time away from here was enjoyed for the simple fact that it reminded me what was ultimately important, which I've always had at the top of my priority list, but definitely doing it and executing that time spent with family and close ones reminds you that even though we are in this hustle mentality, the ultimate capitalist society, just remember to focus on relationships rather than material or superficial concerns. Because family and who you deem to have a positive, long lasting impact on your life is what's most important.

Now, of course, I'm not trying to preach. You know what I mean? I'm not trying to get on my soapbox. I'm just letting y'all know. You know, it's notorious mass effect. So I know this goes out, well, at this point, it goes out to a lot of people on a weekly basis. You know, shout out to the 160,000 weekly downloads we have. Y'all coming back time and time again, the support is why I would never take this for granted.

And I consistently try to give y'all the deepest insights on the music and gaming industry. If you haven't noticed, I think I've covered a lot of genres. I'm not saying that I cover the most variety as far as genres, because I'm never getting into the rage music and the, what was the other one? The rock and, you know, the, what's the electric, the techno. I'm not getting into that. So that's going to be for somebody else to review. But for the most part, I think I do cover enough genres to say at this point,

I cover the entire music industry. not just specifically hip hop so not to be long windy of course you see the cover of the episode basically with ciza on the music side we're going to have more diverse artists on these covers simply for the fact that i'm now covering more genres but just so happened that ciza has one of the top albums in the world so it just made sense to put on the cover for the for uh today's episode or for this episode so with all of the life updates out of the way. Let's get into

analytic interactions. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, we're getting back into one of my favorite, one of my favorite segments, because it seems to be a fan favorite for the simple fact that a lot of people are included in this that support the podcast. So not only do we have a TikTok to go over at Instagram and a YouTube,

but obviously it won't be a lengthy segment as it's just me showing how I interact with some of my supporters. Well, even after hating, it's just, you know, support, whether you hate is positive, you know, still support, still goes up on the ticker as far as engagement helps out in the algorithm. So I always engage. That's what I call this analytic interactions because at the end of the day, it's just a numbers game and this is nothing, um, this is nothing seriously important as far as going over this.

because when I'm getting into these analytic interactions, they're basically me showcasing how the people are gravitating to the content and how you should also gravitate toward the content if you enjoy any social media and want to follow. Sorry, I was pulling this up. Yeah, here we go. All right, so I'm not going to have my face cam up because obviously we're going over my own video, so I don't want to have myself up twice.

But here we go. So for the first one, we're going over TikTok. now basically tictock's getting banned right so tictock's getting banned and the main thing about ticot in the in the in the band on independent artists is the base is basically a lot of people aren't understanding the overall complexity of this situation because it's been going over it's been going for a while and the first time i ever talked about ticot and the band was basically march 8th oh no march 18th 24 so this is one of the snippets from my update that happened december 31st which is titled tic talk ban everything you need to know and this is one of the analytic interactions i had so somebody said

as far as my segment in the clip i put up julius blackwall 142 said on ticot they want that algorithm they've been in silicon valley for probably five years trying to recreate TikTok algorithm, they can't recreate it, so they either won't. Okay, so the way he typed this is, it's kind of horrendous. I ain't going to lie to you, but we're going to fix it up for him. So I think he's trying to say they can recreate it so they either won't, they either want bite dance. He definitely put bike, but it's okay, we're not going to say anything.

They either want bite dance to hand it over or they just want to get rid of it all together. And of course, I left a fire emoji because that was a great comment. So that was just one of the comments I wanted to highlight in this segment as far as analytic interactions. But now let's get to the discourse, right? Jello. Jello has a 2000s banger out right now that is going crazy on the internet. If you hear somebody say, I might swear been that corner, whoa. This is where it came from because Jello has a new track title tweaker.

And I put out a snippet of me having that segment out. Basically, if you look it up, Jello, analytic dreams, it should pop up. I put out a segment covering the track, and this is just a snippet from it on TikTok, of course. Somebody responded to my snippet. Well, Coach V from TikTok responding said, it's catchy, very mid. He isn't saying anything. And honestly, going back, well, going back to my coverage of it, I was gassing it a little bit. As far as the lyrical aspect, it really wasn't all too.

special let's just put it like that the delivery wasn't the grip with the delivery i do enjoy that part of it as far as the lyrical content of it i was gassing a little bit so going back i realized i was putting a little sauce on it so you know i'm definitely gonna admit when i'm wrong so i basically said listening back i responded to this comment said listening back i do agree if he hold on can i see that i made the text a little bigger listening back i do agree but if he lyrically improves but keeps the same 2000 feel, I believe he'll create a new sound. Coach V responded and said, it wouldn't be new, catchy beat, and subpar lyrics. So he doubled down.

Well, why don't you, Coach V? I mean, he out here coaching Jello telling him to double down, right? Double down on the garbage because Coach V ain't feeling it at all. So Coach V said it wouldn't be new, catchy B, and subpar lyrics. And guess what I responded with? That's fair, because obviously at the end of the day, if a supporter, has a valid take, I'll co-sign it. So he said what he said, and I'm not mad at it.

I think it's a valid take. So I said, well, I've responded to his comment saying, that's fair. And then we had another Jello snippet I put up that a lot of people commented on, basically saying that, well, Pablo Swift from TikTok said, they can't stop it when the people choose it. Now, this was in response to my snippet of the segment. Basically, this snippet was talking about how Jello needs to sign to a major label, or they'll stop this track from reaching the heights that it could, which is definitely a fact.

If you don't know, let's go to this right quick. The overall music market share is 4% taken up of the entire 100%. Only 4% is taken up by independent artists. So when I tell you to sign to a major label, it's not because I think that you're not talented to market yourself. I'm just saying that major labels dominate the music market share, and that's for a reason. they hold the strings to a lot of these behind the scenes deals with DSPs so when UMG has 58% when Sony has 24% when Warner has 14% guess what that only leaves 4% for the other independent acts which is why I say to sign to a major label so with that being said this is what the snippet was about and that's why Pablo Swift from TikTok said they can't stop it when the people choose it which technically the People do choose the hot music, but as far as the top 50 is considered on Billboard, which I cover extensively, major labels, majority of the time have every single one of those slots signed to them.

Whether it's Warner, whether it's Sony, whether it's UMG. They have them signed to a major label. So anyways, that's why I responded to Pablo saying, I hope so. But I've seen it before when they shut out indie artists from Radio Airplay DSP playlisting or magazine endorsements, is all factual if I do say so myself so anyways cheese Jesus this man must not be lactose intolerant because he loves cheese enough to put it next to Jesus so this man says cheese Jesus 03 on TikTok said you ever heard a bow wow early soldier boy Q-tip Kanye West Drake JZ question mark now i love when supporters just come with blasphemous statements because what in the world is this

man trying to get across i don't understand if you listen to this snippet it had nothing to do with those artists i'm talking about him bringing back to 2000s field i don't know where he's trying to get across with this sentiment so literally i'm befuddled right i'm not even going to act like i understand what this man's trying to get across he brought up all these artists like i was about to argue with them. So I just said, I responded with the year is 2025 currently. I'm petty, ain't I? The year is 2025 currently. So I don't understand your point. Plain as day. As simple as that. I don't understand what you're trying to get across. I'm not going to act like I understand. So I'm just going to say the year is 2025, my brother. I don't understand your point. So with that out the way, so that's enough for the

TikTok analytic interactions. Let's switch over to Instagram. Now, you have to excuse the quality because this is when i was on vacation right working on vacation that's why you should subscribe definitely rate this five stars or follow me on or or slash and follow me on my social medias via my link tree and my bio because your boy be working even when he's not right so anyways i basically had a segment talking about how drake and his fighting irish freestyle had a lot of questionable bars one of them being about him bragging about him bragging about about your empire crumbling over judges conviction convictions which a judge conviction comes after certain things in the the legal system right so now i'm pinpointing in this snippet how

drake is literally bragging about suing and winning a lawsuit what hip-hop is this right so anyways somebody responded to this snippet on instagram right well a lot of people responded but we're just going to breeze through it. We're not going to read every comment with this specific one. So I said in the caption, is Drake the first rapper ever to brag about suing another rapper. Esclamation point, question mark. And guess what?

Cap underscore of underscore the underscore brother ship on Instagram said he introducing the new quotation marks, Sue Flo. I ain't going to lie to you. That had me really. If Drake has actually invented a new flow, titled Sue Flow, I mean, he already has the UK flow, he has the pop-con flow, he has the passive-aggressive flow, he has, I'm a gangster flow, he has, I'm a scent flow, he has all type of flows, right? Drake can get in multiple bags, because don't forget, he was once in a wheelchair on the grassy, so this man knows how to act, right? so Aubrey has I mean according to brother ship on Instagram he has introduced a new flow titled sue flow I want to have gun

or six nine going to collab on that anyways you know that's what's the point so with that being said somebody was super just flabbergasted at this snippet right he was completely lost on the point so he put in the comment section well underscore sped okay i can't read underscored spend money on instagram said what rapper did he sue now honestly this i believe this was just a a comment that i think he was honestly confused i don't think he had any malicious intent with this one i think he was just wanting clarification so he said what rapper did he sue and then so i responded because you know i was like i think he honestly wants a uh an answer right so i responded saying drake is suing for defamation against umg for kendricks song not like us basically just

clearing it up that kendrick is under umg drake is also under umg so technically he's suing kendrick as well when he sues umg because it specifically says kendrick's song not like us in the defamation lawsuit right so spend money responded and says so how's that suing kendrick After I clarified it, he doubled down on being flabbergasted and lost as far as gaining or grasping the point of what I was trying to get across. So I basically responded again saying if Drake wins that affects Kendrick. If Drake wins that lawsuit, right, it affects Kendrick. The guy he just lost two in a rap battle. So I'm just trying to break it down for him on why this is such a big deal and why this is blasphemous in the hip-hop community, right?

He doesn't understand. He basically says, he responds to my comment by saying, he bodied Kendrick. Kendrick not like us was just a banger. First of all, I thought I was a Drake stand. This man must take the crown

because he just said Drake bodied Kendrick in the right battle. Now, I know we're only one year removed from the battle, but y'all can't be this dense. There's no earth, there's no planet that Drake won the battle. battle. The reason why Drake is crashing out to the point he would never return to his heights is because he lost the battle to Kendrick. But this man, he's not trying to hear all that. He said,

quote, he bodied Kendrick. Kendrick, not like us was a panger. Him suing UMG won't affect Kendrick until he wins and then sues Kendrick after crying emoji. Let me tell y'all some. Some of y'all don't know how the law works and you just got to act like it, right? It's okay to be completely lost in the justice system, right? Because if you don't understand how the justice system works, if you sue somebody for defamation and you end up winning, that person is going to be affected. Kendrick is named in the defamation lawsuit.

Who do you think gets affected if Drake wins, right? It's not UMG. UMG even said. If we get sued, we sue in Kendrick. Guess what? Kendrick's already named in a defamation lawsuit. So he's losing regardless if Drake wins the lawsuit, right? So anyways.

So now I got to break down this whole paragraph because simply this man doesn't get it. So I responded to his comment saying technically suing UMG affects the whole music industry if he wins. So I have to give him the whole broad implications of this lawsuit because he doesn't understand what I'm trying to get across. Technically suing UMG affects the whole music industry if he wins. It definitely will affect Kendrick because that's specifically mentioned in the lawsuit. suit. Plus is Kendrick's most popular track ever of all time. So he'll either have to pay Drake or give royalties for damages to Drake's image way bigger than you think. That's my response. I think that's pretty fair as far as putting my ultimate point in a proper perspective, right?

So this man obviously doesn't want to retort to anything I said. He just says, a win is a win for the goat. Now, at that point, you just realized that some people are meant to be consumers and some people are meant to give information to the consumer because at that point, I was flabbergast. I was like, no way, I just wrote a whole dissertation breaking down my point and you just said, a win is a win for the goat. I was like, at that point, I was like, you got it, my brother. I think he just wants to be confused forever. So anyway, so that was another tidbit of analytic interactions on Instagram, right? And then we switch all, well, take a quick break shameless plug click my link tree in my bio to follow me on my social

medias so you can be notified when i post clips like these let's keep on call of duty ex defiant yes ladies and gentlemen for the first time ever my channel that i do not promote at all so i can get some so i could get a new audience well not like a new audience like that. I'm talking about social media as far as to, you know, let me clear that up. You know what I'm saying? I love everybody who supports the podcast, but of course, I'm always trying to grow bigger. So I made a completely different channel, YouTube channel. This is on social media. I split up

podcast platforms from social media channels. For me, this is my separate YouTube channel to get a different audience because obviously I need some help when it comes to social media. So with that being said, this is the YouTube channel that I just throw up random stuff on, uh, step up. I throw random stuff on to see what grasp the masses, right? So this is one of the videos that receive some more comments.

And I don't promote this channel at all. I think this is the first time I'm ever even talking about this channel. Or even showcasing it like this. So anyways, I put out, I threw out of my segment talking about call of duty killer ex-difying gets shut down by Ubisoft, right? Obviously tongue and cheat because X-Define was no call-of-duty killer. So anyways, comment section. They were definitely enthused as it varies. These comments vary.

So I know these people definitely watch the video, which I definitely appreciate. So even if you hate the video, right, if you watch it at the end of the day, I appreciate any type of engagement and analytic improvement as far as y'all supporting the content. So when you comment like this, I do believe that you actually watch the video because this man, toast soup for, 8 9 said it's unbelievable how Ubisoft gave skull and bones a second year of content but shut down x to find so quickly let me bring myself back in this one uh let's see all right here i am i'm back it's unbelievable how ubsoft gave skull and bones a second year of content but shut down x defiant so quickly it's been l after l after all after all after all you get the point right?

If Assassin Creed shadows bombs Hubysoft won't make it past 2025 perhaps all those great IPs might be better off

in more capable hands RIP so I love this state and so I responded to ToastSoup 489 on YouTube by saying I wouldn't be mad if they start licensing their most popular IPs because at this point

if y'all don't know Ubisoft is in a lot of trouble. I cover Ubisoft back in January 2nd, 2025, right? Basically, Ubisoft is being threatened by Tencent, who is a majority stakeholder, to either go into privatization because Bloomberg reported that it would boost their stock or they will have a hostile takeover

targeted towards Ubisoft. now while that's a big deal is because assassin creed shadows is the game that a lot of ubysaw fans have been clamoring for as far as an assassin creed game in japan they've been wanting it so now that you give it when you are literally under the microscope of either having a hostile takeover by tinsent or you have to go private as far as your stocks to boost the stocks right because basically 10 cents said that Bloomberg reported that your stocks would go up a certain amount right if you privatize your investments or as far as your stock so they want a shift towards privatization that's 10 cent standpoint and if they don't get it they may have a hostile takeover so now

not only is 10 cent clamoring for that but the gul the gulmot my family i'm definitely butchering that's like g u i l l-e-m-o-t i think that's gulmont how you pronounce this gillamott family okay thank you thank you a i gillamont family i definitely butcher that so the gillamont family is basically another majority uh stakeholder and ubissau so two majority stakeholders well you can't have two i don't think um two of the bigger holders of their shares are targeting them and telling them to either go private or they're going to have a hostile takeover. So the Goulamot family and Tinsent have put a lot of pressure on Ubisoft to the point where now

Assassin Creed Shadows is coming out, right? But basically with Assassin Creed Shadows, people been winning this game forever. So if this bombs, it's officially over. That's why they keep pushing the game back, which you are going to talk about in this episode, potentially. We may talk about that in this episode as Ubisoft has pushed back, Assassin Creek Shadows once again because I think they realize if this game flops it's over. They already had

Star Wars Outlaws which is the first open world Star Wars game of all time like of all time. You had the first Star Wars open world game ever and it flop. The first Star Wars open world game and it flopped.

That don't even make sense do it. It don't. So Ubisoft is in a whole world of trouble. So that's why I said I wouldn't. That's basically to come back full circle. That's why I responded to Toast Soup 489 saying I wouldn't be mad if they start licensing the most popular IPs. Now, Brandon Grotha 7508 from YouTube said, Blackop 6 is one of the best cause of all time quotation marks. And guess what? He was talking about me. And he was basically responding to my quote saying Black Op 6 is one of the best cause of all time. And he responded to that

saying you stand alone my guy ain't gonna lie to you i think he had a valid point so i basically say you know what i'll stand alone but besides the maps everything in blackout six is peak which i do stand by the campaign the zombies the multiplayer now the battle reall ain't going to not to you they kind of fumble that ball but overall i think in the maps obviously the maps are atrocious i just don't understand how the maps are always so bad like why can't you just copy the pathways of the classic maps and just re-scan it and then put it out like I just don't know I'm not

developer so maybe it's more complicated than that but anyways I said I'll stand alone but besides the maps everything in Black Top 6th is peak see when somebody has a very um constructive way of giving their critique I'm all for it so I basically concede it to his point I was like you know what

it is definitely a hot take but I'll stand in that hot take and then it gave my reasoning saying everything besides the maps and every uh in black off six was peak so anyway so all of these are great interactions that's why i like to highlight analytic interactions and because in general this is nothing serious we're talking about games and music right we're basically getting into escapism entertainment lane and this is what we're having discourse over so whenever people engage in my content whether it's negatively or positively I'm not affected by it because this is why I signed up for. So that's why I always, as you can see, I always respond, which is why another reason

why you should follow me on my social media is because if you comment, there's a 90% chance I'm probably going to respond because I appreciate each and every person that engage this with my content, whether it's just a view, a like, a comment, whatever. So anyways, let's keep going. Pardon the opinion, 8679 said, wait, I always thought X-Dify it was a recording, software. This man must have been trolling. What in the world? We ain't talking about that. I was like, I was so flabbergasted. So I just put laughing emojis because I ain't know what he was saying. You know, laughing emojis is always the safest way to get out of some nonsense. Like,

somebody says something blasphemists, just laughing emoji and keep going. Whether it's positive and negative. They just let them take it how you, take it how you want, my brother. I don't know what you're saying. So I'm just going to put two laughing emojis. So anyways, that's about it for analytic interactions. Now, let's get back to the episode. So, so episode 1.45, as you can see right here, which is titled, Could Marvel Rivals Take Home Game of the Year? That's the main focal point of the episode as Marvel Rivals is what I'm not going to compare it to any substance. Let's just say Marvel Rivals is highly addicting because it's peak. Everything is so. Everything is so fleshed out from the training modules to the multiplayer to the overall mechanics it's already a balance

the game and that's hard to do coming out as a competitor to overwatch it's basically the best overwatch type game in the world currently and that's hard to do because when overwatch came out back in 2016 i believe it won game of the year at the game awards which is why this proposition of marvel rivals winning game of the year isn't a it isn't far fetch it could end up winning game of the year. I do believe season 1, 2, and 3 has to be straightfire, no hiccups for it to be even nominated. But if

season 1 through 4 continues its momentum, it's a wrap for game of the year. I don't care if GTA comes out. I don't care if any of which, you know, GTA is reported to be pushed back. But even if it does come out, I ain't a lie. GTA may still get it because yeah, GTA 6 will probably still get it.

I went kind of crazy with that one. All right, my fault. But anyways, if GTA doesn't come out, it's a it is a huge possibility that we receive game of the year for 2025 in the month of December because hold on I'll make sure I don't know if that's when it came out I think it came out in December yeah December 6th 2024 there's a whole possibility that we just received game of the year and we're only one month in to 2025 that's insane so that's why it's titled that

but obviously we have other topics as we're getting into Siza, the SOS deluxe titled Laina, Alana, however you want to pronounce it. Then of course we're going to transition into Drake and Aden Ross as far as the biggest streaming giveaway ever. Because if you don't know, basically, Drake is doing a lot of different moves to stay in the public image without having to release music. because him and UMG are currently beefing. Why?

Because he sued them. You sue somebody who you're working for. They're going to make your life a living. You know what. So Drake can't release music. If he gets, well, he can't release music in the way he's been doing by putting it up on social media. Like the 100 gigs, I still don't know how that account hasn't been copyrighted and took

and like straight up just wiped off the map. But anyways, Drake is finding every way in the book to re-release new music. music for free, right? And UMG is having no parts of it. So they're taking down everything. So now another strategy for Drake is to basically show up on these popular streamers platform and basically give away or have a giveaway in, you know, in hopes of getting into the good graces of the public. Because if you don't know, Drake's image is going through the, going through the mud right now.

I don't know if you're all aware of that, but you probably are. Because I think the NFL playoffs are coming right now. So right now, man, it's, hey, clock is ticking. Clock is ticking. When Kendrick hit that Super Bowl stage, if he's singing, sort of, come on now. On the Super Bowl stage, if he, when the Super Bowl? I know the NFL playoffs are going right now.

When is Super, let me see, Super Bowl, okay. February, oh, no, that's coming up. February 9th, 2025, my brother Drake, if Kendrick gets on that stage singing certified, Love a Boy certified, you know what, it's over. So Drake, the clock is ticking. I don't think you understand the impact that Kendrick performing that song is going to have. That's why the lawsuit is in full effect right now because he's trying everything in the book to get Kendrick not to, not only to, you know, obviously it's a broader.

scope is not just that but he also wants to put enough smut on that track to to the point where NFL would back off on having Kendrick perform it which honestly he's already going to probably have to perform the clean version that was a given but now Drake's trying to get it to where he doesn't perform it at all so anyways that goes back to whole Drake public perception thing because it's definitely going through the mud right now and if Kendrick gets on that stage in the Super Bowl well he's already he's going to be on the stage but if he performs not like us at the Super Bowl, it's going to be a sad day in history for Drake fans, myself included. Anyways, then we're going to get into Bad Bunny and his album, which I can't pronounce this,

so we're going to let the AI do it. Debbie Tarrah Ma's Photos. All y'all got that? Because I can't, you know, I can't pronounce that. So anyways, that from Bad Bunny has is his latest album. And we're going to get into, you know, a lot of the surroundings when it comes to Bad Bunny, Because for some reason, it did not sell as much as I thought it would. And I just can't put my finger on why that happened.

Because in general, I do believe that Bad Bunny is one of the greatest artists in the past two to three years when it comes to the Latin music region as far as how he's brought it to new heights. But he was just outsold by Little Baby's album, Wham. And if you follow hip-hop, you already know the ultimate public perception of Little Baby. So now, if little baby is outselling you in your first week, this reminds me of when DS Forever, the album by Gunna, outsold the weekend's Dawn FM and first week sales, because that's never supposed to happen. The weekend and Bad Bunny are never supposed to get outsold, especially in the first week. Like, we know over time they'll probably listen to your music the most, but as far as first week sales,

it's very spooky how you lost the first week's sales. sells to an artist that wasn't even on the list of like top artists listened to because if you don't know bad bunny in the weekend both was on the billboard awards list as far as the most listened to artists in the world like of all the artists on planet earth they are in like the top 10 top five right so to get out sold by little baby in the first week with your latest album when you have when your last album was like two years ago it's definitely a red for flag but so I'm gonna get into that and then of course the guy I was just talking about we're gonna get into his album little baby as currently he has the number one album in the world

little baby is on fire right now who would have thunk right his public perception is basically at a point where people are not taking his music seriously because they're thinking it's lacklustre and while I do believe it has fell off significantly the sales the sales as far as the first week sales it did drop off significantly because his last album which i forget what his last album was called but basically that sold like around 200 000 first week sales right and this album sold 130 000 first week sales which obviously is phenomenal for any musician but we're comparing little baby to himself and so that is objectively speaking a drop off from his last album that came out

in 2022. So it's only me sold like 200 something 1,000 first week. I think it was like one of his highest selling

albums. And then Wham he followed that with Wham and he only sold I say only we're comparing it to himself sold 130,000

first week. So significant drop off but nonetheless still has the most popular album in the world with those numbers as

he coming into the second week, or not second week. Yeah. So he's projected to have the number one. Actually, he already had the number one album in the world. So that's a significant accomplishment, especially for the public perception that's currently on him from hip-hop fans. Then we're going to get into CES 2025. I'm going to talk about the consumer. I totally forgot what CES stands for. Because it's consumer something. Oh, consumer electronic show. Okay, so basically we're getting into the consumer electronic show 2025 and you're probably wondering to yourself this is a music

and gaming podcast why in the world are you talking about a consumer electronic show i don't know if y'all know but the gaming industry relies heavily on electronics so that's why i'm getting into it so uh with that being said then we're going to get into delta force because that is currently one of the most played games on steam right now and just in general we're going to get into the overview of the reviews and sales roundup like I usually do for these type of games and then from Delta force we're going to go into Assassin Creed shadows being delayed once again I told you all we're going to get into Ubisoft and we are going to get into Ubisoft's ultimate downfall and we're just seeing it right in front of our eyes then we're going to get into mobile legends bang bang which is the

mobile version of the game so we're getting into the mobile video game mobile legends bang bang getting to review sales roundup then we're going to get into ginchin impact as that game is doing phenomenal on the playstation platform currently and finally we're going to get it well no not finally we're going to uh well before the genshin impact topic we're going to get into marvel rivals update so we're going to get into the marvel rivals update basically talking about how the season one is officially launched with Reed Richards and Sue Storm. Well, is the name Seuss? It's like Sue Richards, I guess. Yeah, so, Reed Richards and Sue Richards technically. I don't know.

Sometimes the Sue Storm, when they get married, it's Sue Richards. You know, let me get into my nerd bag. Anyways, we're going to get into that. As Marvel rivals,

it's just, obviously, it's the title of the episode, right? So, we're going to get into that extensively and just how much of a chance

it has to win game of the year. year and we're going to talk about obviously everything surrounding the game because i've been enjoying it i've been playing it myself like off stream like even a so shameless plug if you look at marvel rivals analytic dreams it'll pop up as far as my gameplay of uh marvel rivals right and you can watch it um on whatever podcast platform you listen well you can listen to it on whatever podcast platform you listen on but as far as if you want to watch it which is you know it's a gameplay walk through so analytic dreams video on spot to see the video along with the audio so if you look at marvel rivals analytic dreams video it should pop up so i have multiple gameplay walkthroughs out as far as that game but for me personally

i ain't gonna lie i've been playing this off stream and this game is straight up addicting this game is phenomenal like the entertainment the joy level even when i'm losing it's fun like and i don't do that too often like you know i play ring now i'm pretty nice i'm one of the few Spider-Man players that you will play with that's actually nice and let me tell you if you play Marvel rivals you know what type of statement that is and I have the stats to back it up because I ain't just talking so I may just pull that up while I'm going over Marvel rivals because I be annoying the living you know what out of people when I play Spider-Man so man man I love that game anyways yeah they were gonna get into the raft the final chapter and before y'all like why in the world are

getting into this game well basically a lot of people over at xbox i believe yeah xbox is playing this game titled raft the final chapter so we're going to get into that specific game and basically talk about the overall impact and just the intrigue of this game to where it ends up on the bestsellers list on xbox because you know xbox they always get a cue well xbox players always get accused of not playing no games right well we're going to get accused of not playing no games right well we're going to get into the reason why with this specific game as with raft the final chapter is definitely impacting the masses especially over at x-box so anyways with that being said then we're going to transition into cyberpunk 277 y'all just knew every chance i have to talk about cyberpunk which

i still believe is one one of the greatest games of all time i have it up there with mass effect. It's not better than mass effect because I ain't going to lie to you. Some of the supporting characters are kind of lame. And by kind I mean very lame. Like, I don't want to spoil anything, but the girl with all the tattoos, I forget, I forget a name.

Is it Lucy? Let me find her name. I think it's Lucy. Let me see, Cyberpunk. No, that's from Edge Runners. Yeah, that's from Edge Runners. Let me see who I'm talking about, because this is one character which her entire

The entire arc of this character is just straight atrocious. I ain't going to lie to you. Whoever likes this character, let me tell you. I don't care because I don't. This character is straight up trash. I think it's Misty. Isn't Misty? Let me see.

Yeah, Misty. No, that's not Misty. My fault. Hey, my fault to all the Misty lovers out there. I do like Misty. I feel like she makes the game great. Judy, that's her name. That's what I don't like.

Judy is one of the worst side characters ever. when I tell you her whole character progression is pointless like obviously it gives you some nice missions and set designs but overall her as a character straight up trash so that's why I say it's not better than Mass Effect because you had like Garris Miranda Leara Talia Rex like come on like those five alone

it's just like peak character development and we working with characters like Judy and don't even give me started what's the other girl that only that people only like because of the way she looked what was she at y'all already know who I'm talking about is emeritus

it's definitely emeritus I think that's the old let's see what is her name is she not even on here she may not even be on here oh here it is Panam yeah

Panam is also people only like her because the way she look I ain't gonna lie to you like she the character development is non-existent and I'm not going to say like non-existent because I do have this game as one of my favorite of all times. So I'm like obviously it's tongue in cheek. Compared to Mass Effect, the character developments of your companions is really not at that level at all. So gameplay wise, story wise, and the D.C is why I have it up there with Mass Effect.

But I do believe that Mass Effect is still a significantly better game. But going back to my original point, any chance I have of talking about Cyperpunk 2077, I'm going to take it because guess what this is one of my favorite games of all time so we're going to get into the update 2.2 which actually they added a lot and you know every time the developers come out and tell you that they're done adding stuff to the game just don't believe them at this point fool me once for me twice and now y'all know what the president said when he messed up in that entire phrase right he's like you can't get fooled again right that's basically how i feel about the rock star not rockstar my fault that's how i feel about cd project red that's how i feel about cd project red

the developers of cyberpunk every time they tell you that they're done with cyberpunk just don't believe them they've given us too many additions to cyberpunk after they've said after they've said that to the to the point where now it just feels like they just love lying to us to surprise us with new content which i'm all for you know if you're going to lie to us in a way of it benefiting us in the future then that's fine but you know obviously that's a great area you don't want to be lied to by the developers but the way that cd project red has done it as far as delivering on these surprise updates, I don't think we can be mad at. So also, now we're going to switch gears into the beef portion of the podcast, which everybody

seems to love is always at the tell end of the episode. So basically, Apple versus the consumer. Now, at first glance, you're probably like, what in the world does it have to do with the price of tea in China, right? Well, technically, Apple just lost a. a huge settlement to the point where they had to pay out $95 million because they are spying on y'all they were they lost and settled because they are spying on you 95 million dollars they paid out because they got caught spying on you and we're going to get all into that later in this episode

insomnia versus the developers i wanted to talk about this because basically the Wolverine creative director left to go to Xbox Perfect Dark. Whenever the lead developer for a video game leaves, it's never a good sign. Ever. So with that being said, Insomac has a lot of things that are dealing with, you know, in the aftermath of the entire just roadmap being just completely leaked to the public. This is what happens when you give us a subpar Spiderman sequel. People just crash out.

Fans crashed out, leaked all their stuff as far as the roadmap. Now Insomniac is crashing out. They basically say, guess what? You get no D-O-C for Spider-Man 2. You know why? Because we said so. Bet y'all won't leak none again, right? So yeah, Insomniax mad at us. We mad at Insomnia. So it's really a love-hate relationship. And right now, Insomnia hates our guts. So with that being said, the Wolverine creative director left because basically he's probably at a stalemate. He's probably like stuff's getting leaked left and right. They're not going to love the game regardless because they've already seen like. an unfinished version and now they already hate the game right how you hate the game off an unfinished version i would never understand this is why leagues are terrible in the gaming industry so anyways then we're going to get into some music beef with south korea versus k-pop now obviously

when we get into south korea versus k-pop i'm basically talking about the martial law which we're going to get into a little bit of politics but we have to because it involves music a A lot of K-pop musicians and groups and major labels are affected by this martial law in South Korea. So we're going to dive all into that and all the details surrounding that situation. And then finally, you already know, I'm talking about my goat, not once, but twice, as Drake versus UMG. And we're going to throw the Playboy Max, or the Plaque Boy Max beef in there as well. But really, I want to give you all an update on Drake versus UMG. because it's been further

um evolutions of this lawsuit and let's just say it's not going away anytime soon drake wants more money UMG wants Drake to stop being a you know what so now since UMG has been sued by Drake they are officially at war this is the year

that will turn Drake's career either to rubble or he's going to be able to salvage enough to continue for the next five to ten year which I do believe he'll find some type of settlement with the UMG because you do not want to beef with the people who put you on top. Why is that making sense to anyone on his team?

I have no idea. Maybe what Kendrick said is true. Maybe OVO is really working for Kendrick because who advised him to sue the major label that put him on top? The world may never know. So that's technically the last topic of the episode. But I forgot to mention at the end of me, at the at the end of the music portion of this podcast I am because of the goodness of my heart

I mean technically I do want to get into it because it's a very serious situation at the end of the music portion of this episode I'm going to touch on in the intermission of the music and gaming topics I'm going to touch on the LA fires because when I tell you this is one of the more horrific events ever in LA history. Now, it's not the most horrific because, of course, there's a lot of history in the United States. But as far as specifically LA, this is one of the top tier horrific events that ever occurred. I really want to get into it.

I want to get into the political aspect. I want to get into the insurance aspect. State Farm, I'm looking directly at you. We're going to get into them because these insurance companies. Let me, let me chill. All right, so we're going to cover the LA. extensively. I did a lot of research and basically you're going to be interested to find out how some of these insurance companies and how Gavin Newsom, I ain't forget about you either.

Let's just say the black vans may pull up to my apartment after I'm done with that segment because I'm about to break this down like a kilo of my Lys Cyrus. I'm saying? So anyways, that's basically it. So with that being said, let's get into the, mass effect portion of the intro which is basically me going over the biggest albums songs and video games that have impacted the masses the most so let's go full screen with this because now we're getting into music lane right we're going to start with music and

then where's my thing at I can't find it is this it no that's not it let me take that off right quick okay Let's start with albums. Okay. Top five albums currently, the fifth most played album in the world goes to Sabrina Carpenter short and sweet. Basically put under UMG and Sabrina having the fifth most played album in the world still is a pretty significant accomplishment. Because if I'm not mistaken, I do believe. Let me see.

I do believe Sabrina Carpenter had this album put out in August 23rd, 2024, Short and Sweet came out, right? So, what was I saying that? Oh yeah, because it's 2025. And it's still the fifth most play album in the world. It really shows you the type of longevity. Sabrina Carpenter has had with this album Short and Sweet. Very significant accomplishment, especially for an artist like Sabrina Carpenter, coming out of the gate. And then also

for the fourth most play album in the world I was looking at some of my creep. The fourth most play album in the world currently is the boogeyman aka White Tank Top all my fault. I mean also known as Kendrick Lamar. I get my names

mixed up. My fault. Kendrick Lamar's GNX is the fourth most play album in the world. Obviously that's under UMG as well. Third most play album in the world goes to my girl right here as sOS the deluxe it says sOS but technically is everything so it's sOS and the deluxe which she's calling it lena or loner whatever but we're also going to get to that deluxe in detail in this episode right but that's currently the third most play album in the world second most play album bad bunny debby my fault let me get my i y'all thing right because i

can't pronounce this at all right so let me find this right quick uh here we go so bad bunny's album debby tarah maz photos all you heard that all right cool so that album put out by bad bunny is currently the second most play album in the world but bad bunny was also one of the most streamed artists of the year of 2024 so it's so interesting how when he put out an album it wasn't number one even though it was number two we're comparing bad bunny to himself we expect you to have dominance every single time you initially release an album like even an artist thinking to put out an album on your date should be completely disrespectful but obviously he didn't see it like that as he put out his album at the same time as another artist but that artist came out

on top now who is that artist you may ask of course the one and only little baby with this album, Wham, the most popular album in the world. Currently, all genres considered, Little Baby currently has the most popular album in the world. So, that being said, going back over my list, the fifth most play album in the world, we have Sabrina Carpenter, short and sweet, that's under UMG. Fourth most play album in the world is Kendrick Lamar's GNX, that's also under UMG. Third most play album in the world as CISA's SOS Deluxe titled, Lena. That's under

Sony. Bad Bunny has the second most played album in the world. Obviously I don't know how to pronounce it, but that's under Remos, the Orchard music label. And then Little Baby, Wham! It's the most played album

in the world. And guess what that's under? Of course, UMG. Like I said, the market share currently, UMG has 58%, Sony has 24%. Warner has 14%. And guess how many independent artists have a whopping 4% that's why I always tell rappers when you have a song blowing up sign to a major label because

no matter what they tell you in the world you will not get to the heights that you could possibly reach if you don't play ball with the major labels now obviously don't let them put you in a trash 360 deal you got to come with the right lawyer and not their lawyer that they'll tell you to get get your own lawyer that you know have your best interest at heart would definitely be a process because these lawyers being bought out but that's a whole other discussion but definitely

signed to a major label because I feel like that's the best outcome I mean just look at the market share 4% goes to independent artists that's not signed you look at the numbers obviously something's happening behind the scenes that the major labels are in control of so anyways

so that's the top five albums in the world currently that's impacting the masses now let's get into the top five songs in the world that's impacting the massive songs in the world that's impacting the masses. So at number five, obviously we have APT by Rosie and Bruton Marr's been on the charts for about 11 weeks

and it's been on the charts for about, I already said that. It's been on the charts for about 11 weeks and it's currently the fifth most play track in the world. The fourth most play track in the world obviously is lose control by Teddy Swims as that's the fourth most played track in the world. Been on the charts for about 72 weeks. That is insane.

as far as on the charts it's the longest track that's been on the charts or been in the top four for this long well been on the charts for this long really period because it's been on the charts for 72 weeks

the third most played track in the world is birds of a feather by the one and only Billy Eilish that track has been on the charge for about 33 weeks then you have

a bar song in parentheses tipsy by Shabuzi that's been on a charts for two weeks, not two weeks. A bar song in parentheses tipsy by Shibuzzi that's been on the charge for about 38 weeks. So a little bit, you know, a little increase from 2 to 38, right? So that's been on a chart for about 38 weeks.

And it's the second most played track in the world. Then of course, what is the most played track out of every single song being released on planet earth currently it goes to bruno mars the lady gaga once again with the track die with a smile this track came out of nowhere but it's been dominating since it released when does track come out because it's been on the charts about 20 weeks but die with a smile came out august 16th 2024 it's january 2025 and it's still the most played track in the world So that being said, the top five tracks that's currently impacted masses, we have APT by Rosie from Black Pink and Bruno Mars. Number four, we have Lose Control by Teddy Swims.

Number three, we have Birds of a Feather by Billy Elish. Number two, we have a bar song by Shibuzi. And then number one, we have Die with a Smile by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars. So Bruno Mars has two tracks in the top five. I mean, this man is a certified hitmaker. I know there's all type of jokes about Bruno Mars getting washed by the weekend and the versus or whatever. But I don't know, man. If you put up the top hits, Bruno Mars could definitely hang with the weekend.

In my humble opinion, I'm a huge Ontario fan. I mean, they star. I mean, Abel, I mean Aubrey. Y'all don't know what those names mean, right? That should let you know. I'm a huge Ontario fan. And I'm not going to clarify for you. I'm just going to leave you lost.

just to prove the point that I'm a huge weekend fan right so that being said I do believe a versus versus him and Bruno Mars would be more competitive than people think but I do believe that the weekend will come out on top there's a reason why he's the most streamed artists

or one of the most streamed artists in the world consistently so with that being said now let's transition from music to gaming transition from music to gaming let's start with Xbox because everybody loves to play on

Xbox, nobody loves to play games. I don't know what they're doing on Xbox. Maybe they're playing D, like, they're playing Spotify? They play in YouTube? Like, what is Xbox? What do Xbox players play? Well, I'm glad you asked. So, do I want to get to the top 10?

Let me see, top 10 or top five? I should do top five. We've been doing top five consistently. Top five, most play games on Xbox is number one, of course, NBA 2K-25. Call of Duty EA College Football 25 Minecraft

Oh and just when you thought that was going to switch it up Red Dev Redemption 2 Ultimate Edition I'm not going to lie Play what you want I don't care

But as a gaming Connoisseur The discussions that you can have When it comes to game in the year When it comes to what you prefer As game of the year It's invalid because you only play sports games and shooting games.

I mean, there's no discredit to those people who play only sports games. I'm just letting you know if you get into a real hardcore game or discussion, you are going to be left out. We don't care about your opinion. You only play, put ball and hoop, run to end zone type games. All right. So that being said, that's the top five. Shout out to the raft, the final chapter,

the game that we're going to get into later in this episode. That's the sixth most play game on Xbox, but obviously we only get into the top five. So top five and on Xbox, top five video games is currently impacting the masses on Xbox is Red Dead Redemption 2, the Ultimate Edition. NBA, I don't know, my fault. Redoubt Redemption 2 at number 5.

Minecraft and number 4. EA college football, 25 at number 3. Call of Duty, Blackop 6. and number two and then NBA 2K25 and number one that's the top five video games that's currently impacting the masses on Xbox now let's get into the Sony ponies and see what's the top five games on PlayStation ladies and gentlemen it's the same list but a little mixed up number one we have NBA 2K25 once again number two we have fortnight so that's you know a significant jump compared to Xbox.

Call of Duty, we have number three. Marvel Rivals. Why is the most... I think it's the best game, but, you know, I may be a little biased, you know what I'm saying? Y'all see my cover for this episode. Why is Marvel Rivals completely missing from Xbox?

That's what I want to know. Actually, let me pull that back up. I believe it was, like, completely missing from the list. Like, do they not play games at all? Like, I know they have access to that game. I know this game came out on on Xbox Let me see

I mean it just had to The player count is Yeah Xbox Y'all don't play games Like y'all don't like Marvel I mean it's cool if you don't like the game But everybody on the Xbox platform

Don't play Marvel rivals It's not Intriguing to y'all Like y'all just Put ball and hoop Run in the end zone Like that's what y'all do Xbox players man

We gotta talk We gotta talk man. It's a free to play game. I'm not even asked you y'all to spend money. That's crazy, right? Free to play game. That's one of the best games that we receive as far as a 6V6 competitive

game, right? It's one of the better games out there, and it's free to play. I don't know, man. I mean, whatever. All right, so it's not on Xbox at all. It's completely missing from the top 10 list on Xbox. Really really intriguing on how that even happens. Anyways, going back to PlayStation.

It's the fourth most play game on PlayStation, and rounding off at the number five is EA College Football 25. So as far as the top five, when it comes to video games on a PlayStation platform, number five, we have EA sports college football 25. Number four, we have Marvel rivals. Number three, we have Call of Duty, Blackop Six. Number two, we have Fortnite. And then number one, we have NBA, two,

So of course, shout out the NBA 2K25 for being the most played game on both consoles in the world. So that being said, let's get into Steam. My PC players, where are y'all at? Because now we're going to get into y'all's preference, right? Top 5 on PC, obviously Counterstrike 2. Let's just kill the suspense. Already number 1. Counterstrike 2 is like the Taylor Swift of the PC platform.

I don't understand all the intrigues. about it I think I've covered let me see don't tell me I've never covered counter strike let me see I definitely clicked that but it's cool I don't see it at all so I guess I've never

never got to fix it at some point I'm not to talk about this game at some point but yeah it's like consistently number one on the Steam platform like consistently I mean just to put in perspective Marvel rivals is flaming hot right now and that's the fourth most play game on PC. As Counter Strike 2, you know,

the Steam data and analytics is a little bit more transparent than the consoles as far as Nintendo and mobile gaming. Like PC is probably the most transparent when it comes to numbers and analytics. Counterstrike 2 is the most play game on a PC platform with 924,000 people currently playing the game with a 24-hour peak of 1.4 million. That's disgusting.

the second closest is 736,000 which is a lot but it's not 1.4 million goodness counterstrike two just runs away with being the most played game on a steam platform time and time again all right anyways number two pbgbj battlegrounds with a 501,000 players playing right now with a 24 hour peak of 736,000 then we have dota two with with well at number three with 443,000 players currently playing it with a 24 hour peak of 715,000 then of course we have the game we're talking about and is the focal point of the episode Marvel rivals being the fourth most play game on Steam currently with 349,000 players currently playing it with a 24 hour peak of 565,000 then to round off the top five

which this game I did cover Path of Exile 2, analytic dreams and it should pop up on whatever podcast platform you listen on. Path of Exile 2 currently has 177,000 people playing the game with a 24 hour peak of

288,000. So getting back into the top five video games is currently impacting the masses when it comes to the Steam platform and PC gamers. number five we have path of exile two number four we have marvel rivals number three we have dota two

number two we have pub g battlegrounds and of course number one we have counter strike two so now like i always say and i've been keeping my word on this my mobile game is out there i have been putting respect

immense respect on your name as we're getting into the top five mobile games once again and I already now I'm up to two I'm up to two we're gonna we're gonna just keep stacking you know what I mean that's all life is all about evolution we're just gonna keep stacking you feel me the reason why I say that is because I reviewed Marvel contest of champions mobile video game I reviewed Pokemon Go mobile video games so if you look at Pokemon Go analytic dreams or Marvel Contest of Champions analytic dreams I now have officially two mobile game review you and sales roundups out there and i give you some history to how the mobile game grew to where

it is now currently so i'ma keep that trend going as the number one most play mobile game currently mobile legends bang bang i will be getting into in this episode the second most play game on the mobile platform is squad busters the third most play game on the mobile platform is Dragon Air Silent Gods. The fourth most play game on the mobile platform is Roblox. And then the fifth most played game is Marvel Contests of Champions. Pokemon Goge's barely missed the cut, as is the sixth most game, six most play game on the mobile platform currently.

But there's a top five list. So going back into the top five games currently impacting the masses on the mobile platform, We have mobile legend we have Marvel Contest of Champions at five Roblox at four Dragon Air Silent Gods At three I don't know why I froze right there my fault Squadbusters at two

Mobile Legends bang bang At number one as far as the most played Mobile game in the world So my mobile game Is out there just no Forever and always from now Until the end of time I will be putting respect in your name

because y'all help out the gaming industry tremendously. So I love to talk about what impacts the masses a lot in your current field. Transitioning to our last platform or no, yeah, our last platform that definitely impacts the gaming industry. Nintendo, I've been neglecting y'all. I haven't been talking about y'all too much

because guess what? It's straight Mario in these games. I ain't got a lot to you. The way that Mario carries this platform is egregious. I need somebody else to take the, Mario's back hurts. He's tired of carrying the Nintendo platform. Can somebody else help him out?

Please and thank you. So that being said, the most play game on a Nintendo platform is, of course, Super Mario Party jimbary. Now, second most play game is Dragon Quest 3 and the legend of, no, it just says in the legend. And it's like three dots.

Okay, well, great title. I mean, it's the second most played game on the platform, so obviously they're doing something right. Third most play game on the Nintendo platform is Mario Car 8 Deluxe. The fourth most play game on the Nintendo platform is Minecraft. And of course, the fifth most play game on Nintendo is Animal Crossing.

Also, make sure to share the show. this podcast rating the show five stars as this helps the show reach more people so we can grow together and affect the masses and with that being said let's get into the next or the first segment of the episode which is Siza and her album that is technically a deluxe but we're just going to call

it an album because it has a whole different name Laina right now now getting into Siza is a great pleasure because when it comes to great music, especially in the R&B space, I don't know if we get this too often. I don't know any other R&B artists in the mainstream that impacts the masses like Siza does currently. Because if you don't know, currently, Siza has the third most played album in the world. with the deluxe edition which she's titling it lena now when it comes to her album rollouts obviously there's some significant gaps in between albums the sOS deluxe came out in 2024 sOS the original body of work came out in 2022 control came out and well the control deluxe came out 2022 so that was technically 22 SZA fans was eaten right two projects technically from Siza now she was on the dear even Hanson original motion picture soundtrack back in 2021 now she also was on the black panther soundtrack back in 2018 which that was phenomenal still one of the greatest songs of all time with

Her and Kendrick with the track titled All the Stars. That track to this day, I feel like Deonté Wilde. I need to get that sound bike. I use that too often because to this day, that track, All the Stars by Kendrick and Siza is unequivocally one of the greatest tracks of all time. And Kendrick was still dissing Drake. Isn't that funny? That whole verse was dissing Drake.

Looking back at it now, it all made sense. This man had a hatred for that Canadian. here anyways let's keep going control came out back in 2017 and her original body of work z came out in 2014 now the reason i'm saying this is to basically put into a landscape of what i'm about to go over because as far as control it has 60,000 first week sales but i want to start with z back in 2014 which was technically her first album because z came out, obviously in 2014, and it sold around 7,000 copies first week. Control came out in 2017, and it sold 60,000 copies first week.

SOS came out in 2022, and that sold 300, a whopping. You know, I got to put the adjectives in front of it, a whopping, 315,000 first week. And of course her deluxe edition, Laina, which, you know, is a part of SOS sold 170,000 first week. So definitely a significant drop off from a 314,000. But I do believe this is more of a overall music consumption, not going downhill, but not as prominent as it used to be with the likes of content creators, with the likes of streamers, taking away the overall market share of time. spent on music now scissors competing with a kysenat aden ross black boy max competing with streamers podcasters who can hold your attention for hours at a time used to only be music now of course you have your radio personalities but back in the day you really couldn't have a voice unless you was

what they call it, like grandfathered in or whatever, as far as getting a position on a prominent radio station. Nowadays, you buy a sure SM7B, you get a focus right, and you learn how to use OBS and Adobe. Guess what? You are now a radio broadcaster, technically. So now is way easier to start your own platform. And now the people get a choice on who they want to support

as far as having a more vast palette to choose from who they want to get their information from, right? So now musicians are battling with this new revelation of new influencers infiltrating their market share of time, right? So that's why I believe that the 170,000 first week sales is not as a big deal. It's not as much of a big deal as you would probably think with a significant drop off from the 2022 first week sales. because like I just mentioned, the time spent on other things is a lot more, especially the content creator lane. Now, as far as the overall market share, she has the third most played album in the world. So even though it's a significant dropout from a last release, guess what? She's still outselling majority of all the majority of artists, especially with her deluxe.

Only ones that came out on top as far as releasing around. around her same date was a bad bunny with his album and little baby with his album wham little baby's album willem is currently the most play album in the world also as far as this specific album cyza has 11 tracks on the charts right now with her most successful track being with kentra off of his album gnx titled luther her second most successful album is off of her deluxe edition lena with 30 for 30, which emphasizes the public's point and them clamoring for a Kendrick and Sizza collab. Because like I just said, the 2018 collab should have already told you that these two and the studio is only going to come out with peak material as far as music creation.

So an album from Siza and Kendrick Lamar does seem like the likely uter project from both of them, especially with them both going on a studio tour. They're going to be spending a lot of time together. So now we might get a possible album, collaborative album, from Kendrick and Siza, and we've already had enough sample size to probably assume it's going to be one of the better albums ever created. I know that's a mouthful. If you have the greatest rapper ever, and then you have one of the most,

prominent R&B artists who's impacting the masses more than any other R&B musician, put them together for a collaborative album because Kendrick's not going to make no collab album with The Weekend or Chris Brown, right? It only makes sense for him to do it with Siza because Sizz is a part of Top Dog Entertainment. So now, if that album ends up happening, the likelihood of it becoming a classic is through the roof. So I think that's the future plans for Siza, especially going on the stadium tour. with Kendrick, which is definitely going to sell out

everywhere they go. I mean, the Grand National Tour with Kendrick Lamar that's happening April to June 2025 and there's potential for UK tour dates is going to be phenomenal as far as when they go on tour as far as the stadium venues. Now, as far as other tip bits, as far as SZA, it's very interesting when we get into Siza

because, oh, I didn't even finish the rest of the track she had on charts. So those are the two tracks she has on the top, as far as the top, what's that, top 20? Top 22. So, yeah, Luther is the seventh most played track in the world with Kendrick. 30 for 30 is the 22nd most played track in the world. And then you have BMF, which is the 29th most played track in the world. And that's specifically off of the Lane a Deluxe edition.

Then you have Scorsese. Scorsese. I think that's how you said. I'm probably completely butchering that. But Scorsesee, how have you said, baby daddy. That's the fourth, that's the 41st most play track in the world currently. And then you have Drive, which is the 51st most played track. You have Diamond Boy, which is the 60th most played track.

You have, What Do I Do, 62nd most played track in the world, like Siza has hits on the charts right now. Another life is the 64th most played track in the world. Cry Baby. is the 71st most played track in the world. Kitchen is the 77th most played track in the world. And then of course, Chill Baby is the 95th most played track in the world, which brings it a total 10 tracks that's on the chart,

specifically from the deluxe album Lainer. Because, of course, her top track currently is with Kendrick off of his album GNX, which is titled Luther. Now, interestingly enough, not like us, is nowhere to be found. on the charts in the top five and top 10. I'm not saying there's any type of payola going on because of course, that's how you get a lawsuit.

And I kind of like this content creator thing. So I'm just going to keep it at that. But not like us. It's currently the 20th most played track in the world. But in the whole year of 2024, it wouldn't even get past five, right? Interesting how that works out. But anyways, we're talking about scissors right now. So getting back into CISA, something else I wanted to point out is the fact that she is,

having her acting debut. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, Siza is taking the Aubrey Graham route and she is acting in a film titled One of Them Days that is releasing January 17th, 2025, with her co-star being Kiki Palmer and a lot of notable actors in the movie as well, like Kat Williams and Janelle James.

So also, when it comes to this movie, I wonder if I could find that. Let me see if I can. Analytic Dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio. Let me see, Kiki Palmer. I guess I should just look up Sizzas. She probably posted it. I don't know.

These musicians don't like to post anything. But let me see. I think she, I would just assume she posted it. Let me see. Did she have the trailer for it? Yeah, here it goes. Okay, here you go. So yeah, I can watch this.

So basically, I just wanted you all to see that Sizz was on my cover for the episode. now you can look at the trailer for the movie so sis is a busy lady a busy woman currently because she is doing a lot she's going on a stadium tour she's having her acting debut her album well deluxe edition technically that she just put out has 11 tracks on the charts and overall it's a third most play album in the world i mean talk about being successful right like you ever see those memes where it's like oh good skin uh good music um good life like forget you but you know they use the expeditive you know the more provocative way of saying it that's that's what i feel about scissors right now like the overall happenings of scissors life when it comes to the entertainment

factor seems to be firing on all cylinders acting debut popular album stadium tour i mean at this point what can go wrong well i'm glad you asked well ladies and gentlemen we have some drama because let me me tell you something if somebody feels they're not getting a credit and they're broke they're definitely going to speak out because usually if you have a little bit of coins you can let things go but this specific person has some things to get off his chest as there's been a copyright lawsuit from victor victory boyd technically this is Travis scott's song so i blame you Travis scott but cissa is attached to it so now i have to bring it up during the ciza segment so allegedly they copied victory boyd's 2019 song like the way it sounds for their track

Travis Scott's and futures track telekinesis offer Travis Scott's album Utopia was it utopia yeah utopia so now he's suing and he said he was initially credited but later but later offered a percent songwriting credit. And so the lawsuit, essentially, demands that the destruction of infringing works and financial compensation. So he's coming for his fetichini. For the ones who's not culture, that's basically money. So he wants to get paid.

And he's like, y'all stole my work. Y'all stole my creation. And y'all was going to give me credit. But that's not enough. What they say on the network, would it, would it, would it Andrew Garfield say on the network? I'm not coming back for half. I'm coming back for everything. So this man's not going with it.

He's not going for it. He wants compensation and he's suing him. So he's technically suing Travis Scott, but Sizzan and Future is also on the track. And we're covering Sizzah, so I just felt like throwing that in there. But also, as far as Siza, she's phenomenal.

I mean, there's really nothing more to say about Sizzer. I basically just covered everything. Like anything you wanted to know about Sizzo going forward. Stadium tour, acting debut, as you see right here, out January 24th. mean it's coming up soon right and then of course um the album that's already out the deluxe edition lena is currently the third most played track in the world 11 tracks on the charts i mean what can't scissor do so that being said click my link to my bio let me know one of my social media is

what do you think about scissors deluxe edition lena and then also what do you think about the overall trajectory of her career and will you be going to see her acting debut in the movie one of them days when it initially releases January 24th. Ryan Cabot, I'm the lucky man who gets called by, called dad by three wonderful kids, Jackson, Alea, and Braden. And I'm a husband to my wife, Lexi. As a Chicago firefighter, we've been fighting for a new contract to help uniform members financially. We haven't received a pay grade step since 2017, It's been extremely taxing on my time and energy and not only our finances.

I went out. I got another job to give my wife the opportunity to be home with our kids and raise them rather than a daycare. All right. Let me pause it right there. Analytic dreams on video to see the video along with the audio because right now we're getting into the biggest, well, the quote unquote biggest giveaway ever on stream that was conducted by Drake and Aden Ross. So let's, with that out the way, let's get back into it. Analytic Dreams on video,

but Analytic Dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio. Because I constantly fall behind on my car note payment and I have to get to work to earn our keep. So freeing up the money I pay for a car note would be super helpful to my family and me as well. As much as I would love a vacation for two or your concert for two, my children come first. I hope my submission is considered But as a Drake fan I think it's great that you do this

And your fans like my wife and myself Respect you for doing so Thank you so much Ryan Cobat Let's call Ryan right now Firefighter real one Chicago Firefighter Hey man Firefighters got that special

Shout out to everybody Across the world I'm not gonna lie I watch this entire stream And there was many moments like this Where I was thinking to myself Because obviously You just don't want to put drugs on anybody

Right but I was thinking to myself are they under the influence question mark that's all I was thinking the whole time watching the stream because it was some very interesting facial interactions pause no ditty and the overall

interactions was uh very off and very interesting to watch doing the work that the rest of us can't even fathom doing Literally. You're a hero, bro. Yeah, yeah. Shout out to Ryan, man. Ryan. Shout out to Ryan.

Pick up the phone, baby. Shout out to Ryan. What if they don't have FaceTime or anything? I mean, you see the double curve right there. You see Drake looking. I think that's smiley. I believe that's smile. You see Drake looking at smiley.

Like, why are you asking the most nonsensical questions while I'm trying to give this money away? So anyways, let's keep going back to it. I'm about to break this down in a second. I just want you all to see a part of what the entire stream was about. We're gonna make you. It's a crazy logistic question. Ryan, Drake, you're playing. Yo, Ryan.

What's going on, my man? Ryan, it's great to meet you, brother. It's a pleasure to me to be a good fan. Listen, if you got, first of all, I just want to say, if you guys are from America, we need W's in the chat for this legend right here. Real Chicago firefighter, real legend, are you crazy? W. Dad, W. Ryan. You're a hero, man.

You're a hero, brother. Oh, thank you, man. Listen, obviously, we got your, we got your letter. We're going to get you. We're going to get you a vehicle for the family, right? I don't even care what happens with my gambling tonight. I'm giving you 20, I'm giving you 25K from me to you. Of course.

What do you mean? Of course, brother. I'm giving you a car. I'm giving you 25K. Make sure somebody writes that down. Ryan gets a, right? All right. All right.

So that's what the entire stream. consisted of just Drake being the male version of Oprah during an entire stream while also and I have to put this in there because while this is a very monumental moment as far as just giving away and showcasing how to give away because when you accumulate so much wealth to the point where you're willing to give away this much to random individuals it definitely showcases that Giving back is definitely something you should do if you're more fortunate than others, right? Because what goes around comes around is never great to be stingy with your wealth if you can afford to give back. So that's why it's always good to give back. But anyways, the reason why I'm talking about or giving a caveat or just the ultimate disclaimer to this life-changing, life-changing stream for many people.

it's for the simple fact that Drake and Aidan Ross was streaming for steak. Now, if you don't know what steak is, it's a gambling site. Ladies and gentlemen, I would tell you right now not to gamble because hence the word, you can end up losing more than you think because it's addicting. And overall, steak is promoting gambling because if you don't know, these gambles, company have the biggest bag for content creators so me even speaking up like this on these type of companies is a huge pun intended gamble on my brand deals because i prefer to separate the two but sometimes when you look at something as far as being by far the biggest supporter of content

creators when it comes to prize picks comes to fan duel and of course steak they have the biggest bag to give to influences. Why is that? Because the people that they're influencing to gamble are losing majority of their money on these sites. So even though this is life-changing for a lot of people throughout the entire stream, they went back into the reason that they were even streaming. It was a contractual deal with stake to promote gambling. So on one hand, a lot of people are going to lose money by the influence of them gambling on steak, the other hand is such a monumental giveaway that it's a lot of gray area to how you can look at this event but what's not gray area is the objective facts about what went on so basically

this was a giveaway between drake and ader and ross obviously sponsored by stake it was on the platform kick exclusively so if you go to twitch if you go to any other well this is off of youtube so I guess technically it's on YouTube now but it exclusively happened the live stream exclusively happened on kick December 26th 2024 now what it consisted of was a hundred thousand dollar prize for a Toronto based artist slash entrepreneur 250,000 dollar prize for two individuals dream vacation for two couples trip for two to see Drake in Australia in his 2020 25 tour that's coincidentally starting on the same day that Kendrick is going to perform at the

Super Bowl. Just a little snap effect. One year's rent for two people. So these are monumental giveaways. Like this is ultimately something you can never discredit from anybody who is doing it. Because if you discredit it, where's your $250,000 to give away? Where's your three cars to give the families? Like, if you ain't got it, you can't discredit other people who give it away, right?

you know the famous phrase it ain't tricking if you got it is applied to the wealthy because guess what they have it to give away and if you're discrediting somebody from giving away a certain portion when you feel like they could have gave more well you put your giveaway up and let's see how much you're willing to give away because obviously just the fact in the thought of the gift is enough in itself you know how sometimes your family members will say to you as the thought that matter is basically because you're broke. It's the thought that matters because you're broke. If you give them a gift,

they are just like, you know what? This is the worst prize, present, gift, whatever I ever received. So let me just hit them with the phrase. It's the thought that matters.

I'm sorry to break that harsh reality to you, but hey, somebody had to do it. So Drake is out here blessing families, blessing individuals, blessing a lot of people with life-changing financial gain and life-changing tools as far as three cars for three families. And not only was it a car, but not only did he give away three cars, but he also gave away the choice of a Lamborghini or Mercedes G-Wagon for one winner. Now, that one, I ain't a lot.

That's a little tough because if you give it to somebody who may not be as financially well-off, how are they going to upkeep the VIN? vehicle but that's just me that's going back on what I'll say about discrediting people who give away stuff I'm not living I'm not looking to give horse in his mouth I think that's how you say it pause but that's just a you know a very I think an understandable question to present to the public how are they going to upkeep it anyways as far as how you could receive these prizes fans emailed stories to Drake and Aiden through like a they had like a whole system at place right you email them and explained why you do are deserving on one of one of those

prizes and the participants had to be 21 plus years old right it was a over a hundred eighty thousand viewers of the live stream when it was happening winners were called obviously on live stream as you can see right now analytic dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio basically after Drake reading off their stories right they FaceTime them and their reactions, I ain't going to lie to you, a straight, priceless. It really showcases how giving back makes the world go round and never pays to be stingy. So with that, that's basically all I wanted to cover.

It's not a huge story, but the charitable aspect of it, I think is fantastic. I'm not saying this is a direct response to the Christmas drive that TDE is. and Kendrick had. But all I'm going to say is, and I could be completely making this up. But Kendrick Lamar performed GNX for the first time at the TDE Christmas concert December 16th, 2024. And Drake and Aiden Ross's Christmas giveaway happened December 16th, 2024. for 10 days after Kendrick performed at the Christmas concert.

I could be making it up. I don't even know why I got this information from, but maybe, just maybe, Drake is making it his lifelong mission to one up everything that Kendrick does. And with that be you say, click my link to your bio. Let me know on one of my social medias.

What do you think about Drake and Aiden Ross having one of the most charitable streams of all times? and what was your biggest takeaway from this event so quick to pick up a gun you're scared to take an ass weapon this one makes you a man when I was growing up this was all the protection we needed you win some you lose some but you live you live to fight another day analytic dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio because right now I have the official document up on your screens as far as the actual withdrawal from Frozen Moments LLC the company that's representing Drake of course and them

pulling back their petitions that they filed back in November 2024 essentially I think through November December and in mid-January they figured out that we have to live to fight another other day. Whenever you put out a freestyle and the producer of that freestyle conductor puts out that actual song on his YouTube channel and then guess who it gets copy written by. UMG. So now the ultimate realization that you just sued a major conglomerate that's helped your career for decades. So you can't release anything. If you're suing us, you're not going to be able to release anything. Not a freestyle. Well, not a, well, I guess he could put out an audio book.

But you get the point, right? There's nothing that Drake could release music-wise because he's contractually under UMG. So he is suing UMG. So now they're taking down anything and everything that has to do with new Drake music, which is why just yesterday, January 14th, 2025, we've received an update. on Drake and his team coming to his senses as they have withdrew all petitions well not all of them we're going to get to that in a second they've withdrew the order to show cause seeking pre-action disclosure and basically the voluntary discontinuance of the special proceeding with no cost to any

party now this is the important part in this entire document because the entire document is basically three pages long. So as far as you have, it's really nothing on a third page. And then you have the second page and then you have the first page, right? There's not too much on the second and third page besides like the actual date and the signatures

and the attorney details. And on the third page, they basically have a service of notice to UMG recordings and to Spotify. USA and corporation's attorney. So with that, this is the most interesting part of the whole withdrawal, right? UMG reserved its position on the matter, but Spotify has no objection to the withdrawal and

discontinuance. So now technically and, oh, this is another important fact. The confirmation of them meeting, like, basically. the parties involved there was it was confirmed that they met right so now when you come to this voluntary discontinuance with no cost to any party one could assume that you basically came to a behind closed doors agreement to take away these petitions now that brings me to my next point because everybody in the mom was screaming to the high heavens and keep in my Drake is my favorite artists. So whenever I'm saying these things, it does not bring joy to

my heart, but you have to keep it eight more than 92. What's going on right now as far as Drake being positioned as the champion for independent artists and artists who get screwed over their 360 deals to major labels that they could never recoup on the advancement, right? People thought that Drake was going to spearhead that movement when in all actuality, he, he, He was looking out for his own fetichini, his own Alfredo, his own guala. Basically, I'm talking about money. So to compare it to another situation that would put it more in layman's terms, this situation is like if LeBron sued the NBA for letting KD join the Warriors.

Everybody would have came out in this situation, like comparing the two. This would be the same as if everybody came out and said that LeBron was spearheading the movement for ending super teams, right? When in all actuality, because he supposedly lost down on rings because KD. joining the Warriors, now you just look like you're bitter and upset that you lost. That is the same situation with Drake versus UMG. Drake, Kendrick are both under UMG. Kendrick ended up defeating Drake in a rap battle, mind you. Wasn't anything malicious as far as before the rap battle, because if you don't know, when not like us came out,

the bars that Kendrick sent towards Drake's way was really lighthearted. If Drake would have just let that go, because if you realize that the deluxe edition for All the Dogs came out November 17, 2023, and that had red button on it, which basically lets you know that is when Drake and UMG were beefing. So now when that happens and then the overall 100 gig, 100 gigs for your headtop comes out August 9, 2024, which makes it all come to a head because he's basically releasing free documentary footage

to the public, right, to his fans. And Lord knows how much UMG could have made off of that footage, right? so the Todd is back So November 17th, 2023, Red Button came out on the deluxe edition for all the dogs. When it comes to Kendrick

and his bars towards Drake, it was very lighthearted. I mean, we really have to start looking at the totality of this Kendrick versus Drake debacle. This man started off by saying, I have a K with all these nines, he's going to see Pet Cemetery. We really have to compare that

to what we have in today's age as certified level boy certified i think kendrick didn't want to take it there but obviously like he said in euphoria he had to because drake kept telling lies don't tell lies about me and i won't tell truth about you which you know technically is twofold because he was still lying about the well you know at this point in time it seemingly uh it's it's showcasing that he had no evidence for the PDF allegations and the daughter. Where's the daughter? Throughout this whole time,

I still want to know where the daughter's at. Kendrick's been talking about this imaginary daughter, making up characters like he's the second coming of Stanley and nobody calls him out on it. Anyways, all right, my fault. Like I told y'all, Drake's my favorite artist. I'd just be trying to keep it eight more than 92. You know what I'm saying?

All right, back to the petition because I totally forgot what I was saying. Oh, yeah. So basically, when a not like us verse came out, If you're in the middle of negotiation from UMG, you're trying to get an extension. Why would you enter a beef, a rap battle with Kendrick? When the bars towards you wasn't even that serious. You could have easily came out and had an interview like you had, like when control came out and basically just de-escalated. You could de-escalate the situation, right?

Similar to how when control came out, Kendrick basically said it wasn't. that series it was just rap now you gain a full-fledged rap beef where the pdf the imaginary daughter all type of stuff is just coming out on you to the point where now you've lost the battle so bad it's been unprecedented the way that we've seen somebody just get drugged through the mud as far as lyrically now you're suing the same label that you're both are under because guess what you're saying that they helped him beat you in a rap battle went no my brother you just lost and like the iconic scene from Friday you win some you lose some but you live to fight another day because you brought this upon yourself and now you want to sue

UMG now you want to take back the petition but guess what if you look at page one of the document UMG has reserved its position on the matter they don't know they don't know if they want to forgive you or not At this point, the ball is in their court. Should they forgive you or should they not? I mean, let's just look at the charts right now. UMG has 58% of the entire music market share. So let me say this again. UMG has 58% of the entire music market share.

Y'all want to know who's under UMG currently just running the charts right now. Currently, the most popular album in the world is Little Babies Wham. I know very unprecedented because he'd be. beat out bad bunny for his first week sales but somehow little baby is putting up monumental numbers but anyways little baby's on the UMG right scissors well no scissors under sony uh kendrick's on the umg Sabrina carpenter's on the UMG the entire wicked soundtrack that's like going crazy in the movie theaters and on DSPs because all right because of ariana grande like she's really she's like pee Kirkland right now as far as actor and musician she's really running up the numbers on both so anyways

that entire project is on the UMG right um billy elish under UMG m g morgan wallin under UMG i'm talking about some of the biggest acts in the world taylor swift the like y'all don't have to yeah y'all don't need me to let y'n know that UMG i'm not going to say they don't need drake but for drake to act out the way that he is when there's other artists that they could easily replicate his numbers with. Like obviously, there's no rapper you could replicate Drake's numbers with. But as far as a Billy Elish, as far as a Taylor Swift, a Sabrina Carpenter, like, you get enough of those, you may just forget the whole rap genre. Because now they're bringing in billions of dollars. Meanwhile, somebody's throwing to fit because he lost

a rap battle. So it's very apparent when I start to cover the entire music industry that this is just a very angry man right now. What do they say in Canada? This is just an angry you. Because currently UMG, like I keep saying, because this is the most important part of the whole entire document.

UMG has reserved its position on the matter, which is basically letting Drake know that we hold all the cards, and guess what? We don't know if we want to forgive you just yet. I do believe they'll probably end up forgiving Drake because Drake's still a pivotal player for UMG. I mean, he's one of the most streamed musicians in the world.

But like I just went over the numbers, a lot of the albums in the top 10 most consumed in the world, majority of them are under UMG. So they don't have to find another Drake. They could find two to three Sabrina Carpenter's and make that one Drake. So, yeah, he's in a tough position. But anyways, there's some other things that,

and I've already covered this in detail as far as the entire document, if you want to, because this was probably one of my more standout segments, I ain't going to lie to you. I feel like a lawyer when I dove into these documents. So if you look up, Drake crashes out,

analytic dreams, it should pop up. But basically the full title is Drake crashes out and sues UMG and Spotify over Kendrick Lamar's not like us. And that, I mean, it's at like 30,000 right now as far as views.

So, you know, people really enjoy it. And I do try to, have actual like evidence when I'm talking about these things which is why I basically taught myself

how to pull up these documents because there's ways you could do it that I don't think a lot of people are aware of so yeah that's why I had to pull up the actual full document for y'all to see so even though it's not too much on page two on page three as you can see right here like page three like I said like

it just has the dates and stuff as far as who's the notice for and then of course page two page two has the dates again with signatures and attorney details for petitioner and then of course page one is where all the meat and potatoes are technically let me see if I can zoom in because I think I can see that I don't want to zoom in too much because then y'all can't see like majority of it so anyways y'all y'all see the petition it's really not too much you get into I mean drake showed his ham and crashing out and now he's trying to take it back which

brings me to the ultimate point that you win some you lose some but you live to fight another day now i have another point because drake currently does have one of the most played albums in the world y'all want to know what that album is this is how you know i follow the music industry because these type of tidbits you will only know if you follow the music industry closely so ladies and gentlemen come uh let's go back to memory lane november 15th 2011 Take Care of Game Out, one of Drake's greatest albums of all time, right? That album is currently the 46 most played album in the world, but technically is Drake's most played album as of right now.

Now, why is that interesting? Because if you know anything about Drake's overall deal with UMG, you realize that his deal as far as him owning majority of the royalties and masters, started in 2016 with views when ovo sound slash republic records was the prominent owner of the royalties right the reason why that's so significant because it's almost like umg is letting drake know we made you so we're going to make the album that we own majority of the royalties to the most popular album for you currently so on dsps no it's just in general take care of is Drake's most play album as of right now. And that was back when Drake was signed through

young money entertainment, cash money records, and y'all need push your tea to tell you again how that was signed to one man, signed to three men to sign to four, that's bad luck or whatever that line was. That basically applied to Drake back in 2010. And that was the same type of deal that he had for take care as far as the thank me later type of distribution. So why would an album that Drake holds less of the royalties and masters for it would be the most popular album at this time. It's almost like UMG is letting him know, we dictate how this game goes. And forever and always, y'all need to know that. So, yeah, you can, I mean, basically, if you look at the bottom of any album, it would tell you. So as far as thank me later,

young money entertainment cash money records and universal motown like goodness how many people can own a slice of the pie like is there that how many slices you know how uh most deaf said how many skews like how many slices young money entertainment cash money records universal motown i mean goodness and they were all under umg so anyways that was the same that was the same type of distribution model for take care and then nothing was the same you know the list got a little bit shorter because Drake's starting to boss up right

so 2013 nothing was the same it was released under young money cash money and Republic so now they cut out Motown specifically right now let's get to 2016 now Drake has fully transformed into his super sane

saga sorry I don't watch anime like that but y'all get what I'm saying right 2016 views OVO sound slash republic records and has been like that up until today so very interesting how UMG is just playing with Drake in front of his face not letting you release freestyles mind you through your producer conductor they took that down off of his official YouTube channel now they're looking at you and they're like hey guess what we're about to play with you a little more no ditty well actually I don't know but They made Take Care the most popular album from Drake in today's age. Why is that even possible when obviously take care, you know, it's a great album. But when you think about it, how ironic and how much of a quinky dink that the album that Drake holds less of the shares and less of the royalties and masters for is the most popular in today's age shortly after. because he used to be for all the dogs used to be on this list as far as his most popular album which obviously is under majority owned by him with ovo sound slash republic records but now

shortly after your petition to sue and basically bite the hand that feeds you now is reversed to now take care is the most popular album that's consumed right now and you own less than like 20% of the overall master's and royalties too. So very interesting. There was something else I wanted to get into, but I think that may have been it. Oh, not like us, obviously,

is up for five Grammy nominations. Y'all don't need me to tell you that Kendrick has the opportunity to do one of the funniest things ever. As if you look up 2025 Grammy Award analytic dreams, basically I talked about how the only rap song to everyone's song of the year was technically a Drake disc. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, Childish Gambino said that this is America started out as a Drake disc.

And that's the only, we've had Jay-Z, Kanye 50 cent. I mean, Eminem, out of all people, you would have thought he would have won, like, record a year at some point. basically all of these iconic rappers and this is America was the first hip-hop song to win record of the year and child just gambino came out and said it started as a Drake disc well guess what guess what is also nominated for record of the year yes I swear you can't make this stuff up hold let me see if I could bring this up because as far as the Grammys they know exactly what they are doing they were they was tired of that speech when Drake was talking about how um you don't need a grammy and people showing up to your shows is real validation which i technically i definitely agree with that but you know they they didn't want to hear none of that so if you ever look up that speech really they was playing music throughout his entire uh artists uh try to see if i could find it okay so album record biansey this is a very incohesive list let's try to find something that's a

actual website uh let me see ah billboard you got a love when billboard put stuff behind the paywall so this is we're going to do right quick type this in let me see copy this link don't try this at home kids even though i'm not showing you because you know i want you tried at home put this right here and guess what now we're past the paywall all you got love it so anyways uh here we go so record of the year right y'all let me know what this is right here let me know know what this is right here let me see if i can find this what does it say oh let me make this bigger so i can see the full category that was kind of too big pause um let me see okay um there we go here we go record of the year category and then i wonder what track that is that i

just highlighted i think that's not like us by kendrick lamar who would have thought that another drake disc would be up for record of the year. So that's what I'm saying that Grammys have an opportunity to do something that's very hilarious as far as having two hip hop tracks winning record of the year. That's basically a Drake disc track. So with that being said, you know, Drake should probably realize that he's made a lot of powerful enemies and suing and biting the hand that feeds you and basically trying to sue your way out of them opening up that can, as they said on Piccaboo, right? Because after getting drug through the mud like you did lyrically,

I just think that you're going away and then coming back for fire music, that would have been the best path of, that would have been the best action as far as a marketing strategy. But now, crashed out you crashed out you sued your major label and not only that but you announced a tour and guess when the tour starts i swear you can't make this stuff up this the tour starts uh february fourth now i just want you to look up some right quick because let me see what uh well what else happens february fourth i really can't put a finger i really can't put a finger on it i don't

know what else happens on february fourth so drake announced that so Drake announced that he's going on tour and it begins February 4th right and one of the dates is February 9th now hmm super bowl is set to be in New Orleans Louisiana on February 9th 2025 I swear you can't make this stuff up Drake honestly is doing things in spite of And I think that's making his moves a lot more transparent than they otherwise would have been. If he were to sued UMG before the Kendrick fiasco, people or as far as him speaking up for the independent content creators and the musicians who were screwed in their music deal, it would hold a lot more credence. But because it came after the fact of him getting verbally mutilated by. Kendra Gilmar, it just holds a lot more, it's just a lot less credibility that you could put on his

actual intentions. It seems very self-serving and basically it's all about him when he doesn't get his way. It's definitely like an angry child that's not getting his way, that's been getting his way for the past, 10 to 20 years. So that's basically it. I mean, I do believe Drake, oh, this is another thing. I'm glad I kept this to the end. So Drake's going to release an album in like a week or two. When that album comes out, just realize the amount of marketing strategies that are lacking and ultimately tie this into Drake withdrawing this petition because even though that Spotify, basically they said that they have no objection to the withdrawal and a discontinuous meaning that they will let it go through right UMG on the other hand has reserved its position uh its position on the matter so that ultimately tells me that drake could have made behind the scenes deal uh behind the scenes deal with spotify but as far as UMG and specifically i heart because the The second petition as far as alleging that UMG funneled payments to I Heart Radio to promote Kendrick Lamar's song and accused UMG of defamation for releasing the track, that has not went away.

That has not been with draw. The second petition, as far as what I just named, right, that remains active. So he is still actively suing. Don't get it twisted. He's still actively suing. He just wanted to stop the first lawsuit because now. Now, Spotify agreed to take away the first petition. So now he could put out music.

So whenever he puts out music, people are going to be able to find it. Right. It's not going to be black. It's not going to be blacklisted, supposedly. So anyways, with that being said, that's basically all I had. I think those, yeah, was that it? That was basically it. So at the end of the day, November, December, and mid-January, that's all it took.

And you think you're a man with that gun in your hand, don't you? That's all it took. I'm a man without it. Put the gun down. That's UMG talking to Drake right now. Put the gun down. Like, like, what you're doing? What you're doing, Sue and us?

Come on, put up your deuce. So that's ultimately what Drake and UMG is doing right now. Because best believe this back and forth between UMG has only started as far as what can end up happening. for the detriment of Drake's career. So that been said, click my link to view my bio. Let me know one of my social medias.

What do you think about Drake filing his petition to take away the first, well, basically filing to take away the first petition back in November, 2024? And ultimately, what do y'all think about the second petition still being active as far as him suing? So he's still suing UMG funneling payments to IHehard Radio. for Kendrick Lamar's song. So he's still suing Kendrick. I don't want that to get lost in translation. Hopefully I said that enough throughout this segment.

But he's still suing Kendrick. So click my link to you in my bio. Let me know one of my social medias. What do you think about the overall document as far as Drake and Frozen Momas LLC with drawing the order to show cause and seeking pre-action disclosure? And ultimately, what is your biggest takeaway from this whole Drake and his ultimate debacle.

Without a doubt, this is my best project of my career. comma. The most special, the most beautiful, and with the purest feeling, period. I dedicate this to Puerto Rico,

three exclamation points. I dedicate this to all my family and friends. Three exclamation points. I dedicate this to Latina America. Another three exclamation points. Thanks to all the people who were part of this project without you, nothing would have been possible. I don't know if that's how you phrase it, but that's how you put it.

I love them. Four exclamation points. When they think I've achieved it, and everything and nothing can surprise me anymore. The best experience of my career arrives, comma, this moment, exclamation point. This week has been a lot about happy, tears, and thankfulness. My heart goes out to you all.

Thank you. Because of I didn't keep up the day, this translation is trash. Okay, I'm doing my... I'm done reading that. Ain't a lot to you. Translating from Spanish to English on IG was horrendous. Because I'm pretty sure that's not what he's trying to get across.

But as you can tell, Bad Bunny is thanking his fans in a recent Instagram post as his album, Debbie Tarar Moss Photos. I think that's how you say it. I've had the AI read it out enough to where I think I'm able to accurately, you know what I'm saying. But basically, this man has an album out, right? it came out January 5th, 2025. If you don't know,

Bad Bunny was the most streamed Latin musician of last year. He is essentially Drake of the Latin music industry. Even though my favorite Latin musician is Paiso Pluma, I have to acknowledge the facts, which is essentially Bad Bunny being one of the top tier impactors as far as the masses when it comes to putting out Caritos, tombados type music, right? And just the Latin music field in general. So with that being said, when we get it,

into this man's album when we're talking about first week sales obviously that's a very very pivotal point i wanted to highlight because who in the world thought that little baby's album that dropped the same day as bad bunnies would sell more first week now little baby is under umg who is the big dogs in the music industry bad bunny is under remus music label which you look at the market ship is very interesting how Universal Music Group has 58% of the entire music market share. Currently, as far as the top five albums, UMG owns three of them, just to put in perspective as far as the conglomerates, pulling streams behind the scenes to affect the masses.

Little Baby, Kendrick, and Sabrina Carpenter are all under UMG. Obviously, UMG is the major label and their subdivisions, but as far as the big dogs of the industry, they're all under that specific umbrella. Now, Bad Bunny is under Riemas, which is probably on their knees and feet. Now, that makes no sense. They're probably on their knees begging

for Bad Bunny to stay with them because he is single-handedly carrying that entire music label. But also, it showcases Bad Bunny's loyalty to that specific major label. But the reason why I keep talking major label talk and talking about the market share is because I do believe if bad bunny was under UMG he would have had the most play album in the world UMG does technical tactics to make sure that their artists are taken care of let's just put it like that I'm not trying to end up like Drake right so little baby

outsold bad bunny interestingly enough nobody saw this coming bad bunny's album would have been number one if it wasn't for little baby outselling it as little baby had 144,000 first week sales bad bunny had a hundred and eighteen now this is a significant drop off from his last album because let me see as bad bunny's last album i believe it sold like 200 300 something 1st week because um when you're looking at the overall trajectory of bad bunny's career obviously is 10 times bigger than little baby so this type of achievement from Little Baby charting the top topping the charts

as far as his album Wham when it comes to Bad Bunny's album is pretty surprising to say the least so basically in the album of 2023 how do you say this? Okay, I definitely can't say this one.

I need to pull AI back again. I'll give me a second. El Ultimo Tour del Mood It's not even when I highlight it Hold up Nadee say blow Q var Apesa maniana All right

All right? That's the album that That released in 2023 Right That sold around 183,000 in first week sales Now apparently This album

Well not apparently objectively speaking This album Debbie Tarar Mazz Photos Sold 90,000 First Week What is the cause for a significant drop-off the world may never know because technically 274,000 is what he sold

with unverino scene t i think that's how he said that sold 274,000 first week back in 2022 the year after when he put out the album that just had read off by AI that album sold 183,000 first week in 2023 right fast forward to 2025 in today's age now his latest project is selling 90,000 first week sales now very interesting that is a trickle off effect with every single album for the past three years i am very i'm not concerned but let's just say it's something to highlight that he may be in negotiation with his major label because it's a very significant drop off every single time he drops because he went from 44 000 with his first album 100 uh pre i have you say that back in 2018 50 000

back in 2019 with his album Oasis with Jay Baldwin, 179,000 with his album back in 2020. 100, okay, he did have a fall off back in 2020. 116,000 with El Otimo Tor, whatever, L. D.B. Bro, I don't know what that is. El Otimo Tor del Mundo. That sold 116,000 back in 2020.

Unverino, CENT. So 274,000 back in 2020. 2. Nadi Sebi Loqueva Apasar Mniana. I think that's how he said. That sold $183,000 back in 2023. Then you had

Debbie Tarar Mast Photos today's age 2025 sold around 90,000. So that's the complete rundown of his first week sales of his entire career. Right. I think this is something to pay attention to. I don't think it's like a old bad bunnies falling

off. I mean, objectively speaking, he was one of the five most played artists in the world. So I don't think he's really stressing over a first week album sales type statistic. It's just very surprising that little baby end up topping the charts on the same day that Bad Bunny put out his album. Very, very much an upset. So with that being said, I do believe that when it comes to Bad Bunny, he is going to be teasing more music for 2025 because he already put out this album but of course he's about

to go on tour in speculation of a European tour this year rumored to be stadium as far as the venues is considered and they did say that the overall future of Bad Bunny as far as this year seems to be focused on going on his European tour but obviously that's just a rumor we don't know for sure yet but ultimately bad bunny definitely has to figure out a way to raise the first week sale numbers because at some point the public perception is going to be that he's not as hot as he used to be back in 2022 because at this point in time technically that's three years ago so i don't know what the remedy is for it because if you look at the projections for january 18th i mean he's projected to have about six tracks and the top five

50. So obviously people listening to your music as it keeps topping the chart, well, not topping the charts, but it keeps entering the top 50. I just believe that some type of marketing strategy needs to be put behind the next album because obviously whatever marketing strategy you've used for the past two albums just were not yet. So with that being said, click my link to your bio. Let me know one of my social media is. What do you think about Bad Bunny's latest album, Debbie Tarar Moss Photos? And what do you think is the reason for the significant drop-off year after year as far as his albums are considered. Now it's time to get into my favorite artist, Little Baby,

because obviously I'm telling a bold face lie, because ladies and gentlemen, the time has come to keep it eight more than 92 and just let y'all know that it's over. As far as Little Baby and his impact on the masses, this man has won, the competition of putting out impactful music. Now, when I say it's over, the quality side, ironically, because he's under quality control

by, you know, P from QC, is finished. It's finito. There's no saving the quality of Little Baby's music. But as far as objectively speaking, Little Baby has the number one album in the world currently. beating out bad bunny i don't think you understand how much of a monumental accomplishment that is in general like bad bunny last year was top five most listened to artists in the world if any top five artists in the world drops and they don't have a number one album i don't care who else was dropping unless it was somebody else on that list you should probably outsell

them i know in a new year new circumstances i guess but that's like when when you're And the weekend Don FM was outsold by Gunna's DS forever. Ultimately, that's an upset. In sports terms, that's a big upset. That's like if I'm watching the sports at this point to make any comparisons. Is the Pistons still trash? Pistons are always trash, right? That's like if the Detroit Pistons played the Boston Celtics and the finals,

or not the finals, my fault. In the playoffs, you know, Pistons getting even that far as a stretch. In the playoffs and beating them like 4-0. Like, that's just a monumental upset. We did not think that little baby was going to have the number one album in the world when he dropped well.

But ultimately, here we are. This man is the number one album in the world with some, and obviously this is my subjective opinion, some garbage. This man put out some garbage, and guess what? Now it's number one. I ain't going to lie to you. Garbage is a little harsh.

It's not great. It's not bad. It's just lukewarm. It's like as far as being underwhelmed or being overwhelmed, I'm just overwhelmed. I don't understand why he would put this out and think we will champion this as his return. Because the main thing about this rollout was little baby acknowledging to the fans like, yes, I've slipped a little bit, but guess. what i'm coming back and i'm coming back with avengers because i'm little baby i got to remind y'all how i can really get down when it comes to putting words together well as far as

putting stuff together let's just say your marketing team did a phenomenal job as showcasing to the public what a superstar should be treated like as far as from a marketing PR standpoint, a music label standpoint, you must be very liked in that building because they did everything in their power to make Wham look like a success. And guess what? It's the number one album in the world. Objectively speaking. Subjectively speaking, I think this is some lukewarm music from Little Baby. But a simple fact that it's only so many, times you can remaster the same hit track and not evolve as a musician. Production-wise, I've already given advice. Style-wise, I've already given advice. At this point, I don't know if

he's listening to anybody's advice. This man's making, this man's doing what he wants to do. Like, obviously, he's the most, one of the most successful rappers in the past two to three years, as far as the top dogs are considered. But when it comes to a, quality level is obviously taking a downturn to a point where now we're pointing out a lot of the inconsistencies with little babies quality compared to a once in these type verse compares to a uh what was the voice and the heroes the collab album with little dirk like the way you was sliding on those beats i mean even though people say little dirk was to stand out of that album but still you was rapping on those beats to the point where that entire album to this day is a very underrated hip hop collab album

the voice in the heroes or let me get this title right i forget what it was called yeah the voice of the heroes that's actually what it's called okay so when that album came out what was it back in 2021 dang i feel old making a call back from like four years ago yeah back in 2021 when the voice of the heroes came out with little baby and little dirk on it. That was a phenomenal album. Once in these, when that came out and you, to my, you know, obviously this is all subjective. But in my opinion, I feel like he outwrapped Drake.

And that's my favorite rapper. You know how hard it was to say that. That's like when I said, Germain outwrap Drake on for all the dogs. Like, we don't want to say that. We don't want to say that ever. We don't want to acknowledge our goat ever getting outwrapped on a track. And you did that consistently on once in the news.

to the point where people were putting you up there to be the next Drake. People were literally calling you the modern day little Wayne because the way that you was having a tear through your features. Every feature was hitting. And honestly, what I think happened was he lost one of his ghostwriters because I ain't going to lie to you. It just makes no sense. I just don't understand.

How has everything sounded the same but worse? Like you would think that you would just get the person. person who creatively made your hits and just have them, just cook up all type of tracks and pick from that, right? I think he lost one of his ghost writers. I think because it's such a significant drop off from quality, from a quality standpoint to the point where I'm like, there's no other, as far as the music creation process, you keep trying the same thing over and over again is almost like you lost the ability

to make something different that's great quality. as far as music. So now when we're looking at it, it's like you must have lost your ghost writer. There's just no other reason for the quality to drop off the way it has. But anyways, I'm not here to just rag on little baby. Obviously, I want to get into QC as a whole, because if you don't know, quality control is owned by P from QC, right? I want to talk about how that label is undergoing some serious construction right now, because if you don't know, ultimately founded in 2019 by Pierre P. Thomas and Kevin Coach K. Lee, right? Quality control was recently sold. I'm trying to find out who they were sold to. So basically, do I have it on here? I don't know if I

have it on here. I totally lost why. I definitely had it, but I guess I lost it. Oh, I found it. Okay, so quality control owned by P and founded by P in 2019, right? Well, Pierre P. Thomas, that's a full name. Basically, well, okay, so the founders is Kevin Coach K. Lee and Pierre P. Thomas, and it was technically founded in 2013 in Atlanta, Georgia. I don't know why this is saying 2019. Oh, that's for something else I was getting into. Okay, my fault.

That was my fault. So founded in 2013 obviously has standout musicians like Migos, Little Baby, City Girls, Little Yachty, Carter B, etc. So they previously were bought out by, or acquired, that's the business technical term, by Hybe America. Y'all want to know who the CEO is of Hybe America? Let's just say, Justin Bieber said, never say never. and people are still doing it.

Sad day in history. But anyways, Scooter Braun is the CEO of Hib America. He acquired quality control for $300 million. $250 million in cold, hard cash. You know how people ask you, what would you do,

and then they put a dollar amount on it? Well, guess what? School of Brond asks Coach K and P from me from, QC what would you do if I gave you $250 million cash and guess what they gave them quality control it was like hey have the label I don't need this label no more I have 250 million so 50 million in hyb stock issued to coach K and P so they was paid 250 in cold hard cash I don't know if it was to coach K and to P or if they split that but also 50 million

in Hive stock issued to Coach K&P. I think it's $300 million total. So they split to 250. And then, so what would that be like, uh, 125, right? 125? I'm not no mathematician, but I'm pretty sure that's right.

And then, um, what else was I saying? 50 million and Hib stock issued to coach K&P. So that would be like 25 apiece. So basically, Hive acquiring QC for $300 million is insane

he just gave up Cardi Migos Little Baby City girls I mean City girls gave up on themselves but you know what I'm saying Little Yadi I think I already said him y'all get the point right he's just like hey

250 million that's a lot of money I mean obviously so yeah so now right now they're going under a transition period where Coach K and P have control of operations under Hib oversight because there's a continued partnership until they fully take over.

So with that being said, they've started to broaden the horizon as far as what they do as a company and that's where the 2019 stuff comes in. So basically, quality control has QC sports that was founded. So this is what the 2019 comes into play.

QC Sports was founded in 2019 by Pierre Pek Thomas and Kevin Coach K. Lee, right? They represent notable athletes like Alvin Camara from the New Orleans Saints and D'Andre Swift from the Detroit Lions. Now, I don't know what you get from being under QC Sports Entertainment, but hey, I mean, obviously if they signed to them, because I'm pretty sure Alvin Camara is like a huge deal, right? Like I don't even watch sports. I'm pretty sure I know he's like one of them, like as far as like one of the top football players. But anyways, so they have him and I don't know what they offer, but obviously they offer something for an athlete like Alvin Kamara to sign them.

Also, they have this thing called QC films. I'm assuming that this was also created in 2019 where they aim to produce content that resonate with a culture and demographic that they cultivated through music. and then the film QC films produced Wash Me in the River featuring Cuevo from Amigos right alongside Robert De Niro

imagine that parent right your Robert De Niro just spent your whole life learning how to act and you're about to enter into a movie and they say your co-star is Quavius how would you feel

how would you feel man walked on set found a whole musician reading lines he was like hold up now am I getting prank? But anyways, but shout out to Quavo. I'm pretty sure he did great.

You know, just jokes, you know what I'm saying? So Quabo featured alongside Robert De Niro and the film Wash Me in the River. And that's basically, you know, QC getting more into film production. Obviously, they said, you know, the numbers for that movie wasn't the greatest, but it was more of a test waters type of film

rather than like a all-out budget, for a blockbuster. So, and then they have Vocal Network, which is a podcasting label. Hey, they need to sign me.

I'm over here being independent. The whole time, QC, got a whole podcast company. They probably ain't going to sign me after a while

I said about Little Baby's music, but you know, got to keep it eight more than time. 92. Anyways, Quality Ventures

partner with the network advisory to launch vocal, a podcast network focusing on music, sports, fashion, and culture. So as far as this, they said that

it was aiming to attract listeners interested in the... Okay, yeah, we already know that. So overall, Scooter Braun ain't paid that $300 million for nothing. He's trying to recoup. And part of recouping is making sure one of your premier mascots of quality control music label, Little Baby, is successful in his specific field, which is the music industry,

which to tie it in full circle is why I believe he had the biggest album he has the biggest album currently in the world and he outsold bad bunny as far as first week sales to tie it all back in that is why I believe that the quality level could be subpar from little baby but objectively speaking the sales it was like a seesaw the sales could be so high as having i mean the highest i mean you have the most play i'm in the world like it's no higher than that right so that is why i'm saying little baby's marketing team and the strategies that they're putting behind him if you're a marketing major or whatever i would definitely pay attention to the way the marketing little baby because if you think about it that's the flagship premier driver as far as engagement to quality control and you just pay 300 million for quality control. Who would you want to put all your money behind as far as marketing budgets? And ladies and gentlemen, that is why this is called notorious mass effect, because that's why we get

into, because we get into things like this, because it ends up affecting the masses by behind the scenes tactics. And that's why I'm here to explain it for you. And that's basically what it is. So Scooter Braun paid $300 million. Of course, little baby is going to outsell bad bunny first. week sales and of course he's going to have currently as of january 10th the most played album in the world so that be said click my link sure in my bio let me know on one of my social medias what do you think about a little baby currently have the having the most successful album in a world wow and ultimately where do you think quality control the music label will be three to five years from now tonight la is back on high alert as the

The Santa Ana wins ramp up fanning already uncontained blazers. Amid fears of new ones as well. It all comes as at least 13 people have died, including one Australian. We lost everything. I'm so sad that we lost everything. Analytic Dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio. Because, objectively speaking, this is one of the most. horrific events historical disasters that we've ever seen as far as a wildfire in

LA being up there with one of the top US disasters of all time especially when it's still going on as of January 13th 2025 that's the update as far as the information that I'm about to give, I want you to also be able to see the effects of this just horrific, one of the most significant wildfires ever in the nation's history. And especially for L.A. because with California's fire history, I don't think we've ever seen something like this. As with the Palisades fire,

with the Eaton fire, the Hearst fire, the sunset fire, Kenneth fire, the Lydia fire, up to date, 16 people have lost the lives because of this. So my prayers and condolences goes out to everyone affected and especially the loved ones because this is something that is hard to even put into words because personally putting it into your own perspective as if it would have happened to you. I couldn't even come up with the words to even give somebody advice for them losing.

everything as far as all the overall memorabilia that you have in your house, all of the different family pictures, all of the files that you've saved as far as video recordings of maybe your kids growing up, your family events or vacations or just life in general. Everything as far as people having a sense of home was just taken away by this wildfire and we have a lot to get into but first I want to finish this video before I get into the up-to-date analytics as far as the overall impact of this wildfire in LA as we know it is over I feel like I'm looking at my own funeral we actually came to say thank you to our house for being good to us We were good to it.

As residents come to terms with unimaginable loss, the fight against the inferno remains at fever pitch. A water drop on this particular home. And tonight, predictions that conditions are set once again to become life-threatening. Looking forward over the next few days and into the next week, we will be facing another critical... Now remember this face and name, because we're going to come back to this in a second in detail as far as what she has to say. about this overall situation. But that's why I paused to just remember this face and name because we're going to come back to her.

The four fires dubbed Palisades, Eton, Kenneth, and Hearst have in total ripped through an area almost the size of Newcastle. More than 10,000 structures destroyed, close to 180,000 evacuated amid fears, worsening winds could spark new blazes. LA's mayor and fire chief are united front after mass criticism over the way the crisis has been handled. We're both focused on our urgent needs to mitigate these devastating wildfires. The chief and I are lockstep in our number one mission.

And that mission is to get us past this emergency right now. And as the firefronts worsen, the grim search for bodies goes on. Tragically, one of the dead was Australian former child star Rory Callum Sykes, who was blind and suffered from cerebral pausing. He said, Mom, leave me. No, Mom can leave the kid. And I got a broken out. I couldn't lift him, I couldn't move him.

When the fire department brought me back, his cottage was burnt to the ground. has helped pause in from around the country and the world just how long can LA hold on. So ultimately that was an overview video, but this is where I'm going to dive into a lot of details as far as this entire horrendous event because it's still ongoing, but as of the up-to-date statistics and overall analysis, I believe, especially with me covering music and gaming. When things like this happen and the country that you live in, I believe it's your due diligence, especially if you have a little influence to be able to let people know what's actually affecting. It's probably going to affect your everyday life going forward,

even if you don't live in L.A. I want to get into solutions because, of course, living in this country, I think the overall scope, which we're about to get into, a lot of people are going to be wondering to themselves, how can I positively affect the lives that was affected by the LA wildfires from afar? Right. And of course, this is for people who can afford to give away and have expendable income as far as for the victims of this wildfire. So, First off, I wanted to say the American Cross, the California Fire Foundation, and the World Central Kitchen, all three of those organizations can positively impact the people who were affected by the LA wildfires. Because essentially, the American Red Cross helps out with shelter, food, and health services. the California Fire Foundation supports both firefighters and fire victims.

And of course, the World Central Kitchen helps provide meals to evacuees and first responders. So if you want a way to positively impact the victims of this L.A. wildfire, that is an actual, an actual, actionable item is i think that's how they say i don't know basically that's a way to help positively positively impact these people who are affected and then of course when it comes to local shelters and organizations you have the ymca when it comes to volunteering for food distribution you have organizations like the no res gourmet i think that's how you pronounce it looking for volunteers to help cook package and distribute meals to the ones affected by the fires and of course when it comes to overall essential items food water hygiene products clothing you can drop off at designated locations

like the Anderson Munger family YMCA or Korea Town YMCA as far as if you want to actually impact the people in this situation, in this natural disaster, one of the top wildfire disasters in U.S. history. So spreading awareness obviously helps. is you know i cover gaming and music but i thought me covering this would do help to someone because of course with 160 000 weekly downloads somebody is bound to take this information and actually act upon it because there's so many people you'd be surprised who say thoughts and prayers and they don't do anything to help out victims whose whole life have been turned upside down by these natural disasters, right? So that's why I wanted to give actual foundations and names to help out from afar

because a lot of people are going to be wondering to themselves, what can I do? And as far as remote help, GoFundMe's help out a lot as far as you looking up different go fund mes that are verified fundraisers on GoFundMe set up for individuals or small businesses if you want to go to GoFundMe route. personally to be on a safer side, the three organizations that I said at the beginning are the best solutions in my opinion. The American Red Cross,

the California Fire Foundation, and the World Central Kitchen. I think those are the three solutions as far as being able to impact, positively impact the victims from afar, right? So that's what I wanted to get off. That's where I wanted to lay out, before I got into the overall impact because throughout this entire segment, you may be wondering to

yourself, how can I positively help these people if you're able to? Obviously, this is for people who like have expendable income to give to people who have suffered a lot from these LA wildfires. But want to lay that out so you know where to go to contribute from afar because a lot of people from all over wanting to know how they can help. So that's basically why. I wanted to lay out first because we're solution based over here as far as laying out some solutions and not being divisive but we are going to hold some people accountable which is a very great area of course because accountable definitely comes with some divisive rhetoric but for me I like to look at both sides I'm going to present both sides and let y'all decide who

and it's not even like picking size but it's basically laying out information about this entire situation right so anyways the wildfire and los angeles well the wildfires plural in los angeles up-to-day analytics have at least 16 fatalities of course it's still ongoing but i'm covering everything from january 13th 2025 we don't know how long these wildfires are going to go right now the palisades fire 22 000 acres have been burned by that fire alone the containment is at six percent The destruction of the Palisades fire is 4,000 to 5,000 structures, including a lot of celebrity neighborhoods, right? And as far as up-to-date developments, there are flare-ups leading to evacuations in places like Mandeval Canyon and Brentwood. The other fire, Eaton, fire currently has burned 4,000.

14,000 acres. The containment is currently at zero. That has 11 fatalities alone attributed to the eaten fire. And the destruction is still widespread damages to homes and infrastructure. So that one seems to be the fire that's a little more difficult than the other fires to contain. None of these fires have been completely contained. But I'm just giving you the percentage from the analytics that I've looked up. Other fires, such as sunset fire, has been contained. That originated in the Hollywood Hills.

The Hearst Fire, that's 33% contained with significant structural damage. The Kenneth Fire has rapid spread and calabasas and hidden hills, but that's been contained. The Lydia fires is 40% contained

in acting is minor compared to others, but definitely still impactful. Right. So why is this fire or these fires, these wildfires? Why are they so hard to contain? Because for most people, they're going to think of some conspiracy theory way that they're just letting the fire burn, everything to the ground. But ultimately, nature always wins.

Earthquakes, hurricanes, wildfires. fires, floods. I mean, I mean, that's basically a hurricane, you know, it basically entails that. But nature always wins. That's what I'm trying to say. So with that, that is why these wildfires are so hard to contain because basically there's been gusts up to 100 miles per hour accelerated fire spread.

So you have all these winds, specifically the San Francisco. to end a winds having a hundred miles per hour winds accelerating the fire spray so not only is a fire but now you have a hundred miles per hour winds do y'all know basically it's very force it's very strong winds let's just put it like that i just gave a number for the people who know but if you don't know let's just say it's very strong wins that will probably lift you up off your feet I ain't going to lie to you. Like the winds will move a grown man. That's how fast these winds are.

So that's what's pushing these wildfires, right? And then of course, when it comes to the climate of California, that's what I'm saving for later in this segment, because we have some very interesting tips to get into. Also, as far as the firefighter's response, just wanted to lay it out plainly before I get more into detail. There's been over 750,000 firemen. firefighters deployed and people are probably wondering to themselves how do you have that many

firefighters and the fire is still not being contained well as far as the fire hydrants which you're going to get to more in detail but plain and simple it's been limited due to dry hydrants don't kill the messenger i'm just letting y'all know that the hydrants are dry how does that make sense the world may never know so anyways let's keep going we're going to get more into that in a second i'm just laying it out right now obviously it's been all type of evacuation efforts like i said at the beginning 1759 they had 180 but you know that's whatever basically 180 000 order to evacuate so with that a lot of people are losing just their livelihood in an instant simply due to this wildfire right now another thing i wanted to say was we're going to get to

that in a second because that basically goes into the financial impact of everything but um there was something else i was wanted to talk about before i got into that point because basically with this overall issue it's essentially one of the biggest u.s disasters it's not the biggest because i looked it up but it's one of the biggest but it's within the context of california. California's fire history is one of the most significant wildfire events. So now, let's get into the financial aspect. Ladies and gentlemen, the insurance piece of California is in shambles. When I tell you that the only positive thing to come out of this as far as insurance is the $20 billion in insured losses from JP.

working because the other insurance companies which we're about to get into right now they have shown their true colors and yes talking about state farm Jake from state farm he ain't going to answer to this ain't is he Jake from state farm nowhere to be found when we're talking about real cultural events that they could be helping with right state farm I know he's just the mask off of state farm just all state and farmers, all of them, every single one of them, have stopped issuing new policies or they haven't renewed existing ones in high risk areas. And this happened before the wildfires.

So a lot of people are just now finding out that their homes are not insured. Guess what? All those millions gone. That's what I'm talking about with celebrities and the everyday workers. everybody's impacted. This is a very impactful wildfire to say the very least. That's why I'm getting into actual numbers because when you look at it, an example, right? State Farm canceled nearly 70% of his policies in the Pacific Palisays in July 2024.

July 2024, State Farm canceled nearly 70% of his policies in the Pacific. Pacific Palisades area. Now, let's go back to this. Palisades fire. 22,000 acres burned to the ground. It's almost like, it's almost like these insurance companies know more than they let on when they take away these insurance policies. Like it's, it's almost like they knew this was going to happen and took away the main

reason people even fund or put money into their company for it. The main reason you're here, you pulled out because you just had an inclination that this was going to happen. Isn't it funny how that works out how the biggest company as far as insurance? Instead of just telling people, hey, you know, you should probably move or we have numbers that suggest that this is going to get burnt to the ground at this point in time. That's not what they said. But they basically said we're not ensuring any fire risk because you're in a high risk area for fires. Now, as far as those two statements, a lot of people could be like, well, that technically is letting them know that their house could get burned to the ground. But when you take away the fire insurance, July 2024, when your main purpose is to ensure, isn't that defeating the whole purpose of funding this insurance?

insurance plan? So you're telling me the reason I'm funding this insurance plan, one of the main factors that could put this insurance policy into place. You just took that factor away, saying you don't cover wildfires. That sounds messed up to me, which is a bigger conversation because I'm not going to say any names, but there's a certain someone being treated like he should be because he broke the law but what he did as far as i don't even know if i can say that let's just say there's a certain someone that there was a lot of gray area and the reasons for his actions as far as people condemning it and then people co-signing it and now when you see the insurance companies pulling out july 2024 as far as specifically state farm canceling 70% of his policies in the pacific palisades and

And now we see that the Palisades fire. Fast forward to 2025 has burned down 22,000 acres. And it's only 6% contained. Somebody's at fault for this. And it's not the owners of the home. So anyways, let's keep going. Even though I'm pointing out these obvious downfalls as far as how the system just failed, the working class, I still want to offer solutions. So basically, if you haven't yet, and if you're in California, I would turn to the Fair Plan,

which is designed as an insurer of last resort for those who can't obtain coverage for private insurers. I'm not a financial advisor on this specific segment. So if you do this, I'm not a financial advisor. I'm just laying out some tidbits that could help you. The Fair Plan offers limited coverage, capping payout. at $3 million per household, which is often insufficient for high value property in the areas like Pacific palisades where homes can exceed this value significantly. Once again, in this specific segment, I am not a financial advisor.

I'm just letting y'all know what's out there for people who want to have some type of hope in ensuring something, right? Their cap and payouts at $3 million. DDG just spent $10 million on the home that burnt down. Obviously, it doesn't cover everything, but if it's something, I'm pretty sure people would take it as far as some type of recoup on what they thought was going to be a lucrative investment. Let's keep going. So when it comes to the insurance aspect of California, it's in shambles. Like people been knew that, I don't know, the insurance company's been new that something was up.

Why I take away 70% of the policies like State Farm did back in July, 2024, when now in early January 2025, these wildfires are rampant, one of the worst wildfires in the nation's history, right? So as far as the response, you know, California's insurance commissioner introduced rules allowing insurers to factor in reassurance cost and use content. Catastrophe. I said that right. Yeah, catastrophe. I don't know why I thought I messed it up. Anyways. I was like catastrophic.

No, that's catastrophe. You know, sometimes getting to my Floyd Mayweather bag. Anyways, modeling for premium setting, right? This means higher premiums for consumers as insurers can now more accurately, more accurately price the risk but at higher cost. So basically, that's what is happening on the California. California insurance aspect at this point in time. Also, when it comes to the fair plan that is now being the last resort, like the last ditch effort, right, to get some type of insurance, right,

who can't obtain coverage from these other insurance companies. Just know that they're capping payouts at $3 million per household. Once again, not a financial advisor. Just letting you know some of the tools that are out there for you specifically if you're impacted from this wildfire. Also, another thing I wanted to go over is that the insurance commissioner Ricardo Laura issued a one-year moratorium on policy cancellations and fire-affected areas to provide some stability for residents. So once again, insurance commissioner Ricardo Laura issued a one-year moratorium on policy cancellations and fire-affected areas to provide some stability for residents. That's basically it for the insurance side of things. Now, Gavin Newsom, I knew, I just knew, I just knew that time and time again, people kept trying to warn him about these wildfires. Because if you don't know, this has been a history, this has been in California's history as far as wildfires.

Like they're known for wildfires, like Florida is known for hurricanes, right? So when it comes to the preventive measures, there's been documented footage of a lot of people. coming out and basically speaking against Gavin Newsom to why he doesn't actually face some of the concerns that's been brought up time and time again with these wildfires whether it's the hydrants whether it is overall um i think it was like dead leaves or whatever that they just leave out there after a wildfire um a lot of just political figures have came out and it's not a you know political platform. And also, I'm going to lay out both sides.

I'm going to lay out what Gavin says and also what the fire chief said. We're going to get into that in the second. But basically, Gavin Newsom is under fire and, well, that's a bad pun. My fault. Gavin Newsom is under scrutiny for basically a lot of key issues as far as it not being addressed, leading to this uncontainable wildfire. There's a lot of things he could have did, which is the water

management situation, the forest management situation, firefighting resources, which the lady, I was just telling you to keep her face, the name in mind, we're about to bring her up right now. The budget priorities, there's a lot of things that he could have did, but we're not pointing to blame. We're just saying that now you have to chance to do better and we're pointing out the significant areas that's underfunded and that's literally coming from the fire chief's mouth that they're not getting enough tools and resources as if you don't know basically when it comes to the fire chief right and and i'm going to see if i can

find this basically I'm trying to figure out that I take that way I think I took it away so oh here go okay I don't know where that went anyways um Kristen Crowley she is the fire chief of the Los Angeles Fire Department right so when I bring up Gavin Newsom and what he tweeted out and then when I get into the actual words of Kristen Crowley I'll Obviously, Gavin Newsom is also doing interviews and stuff, which I would definitely recommend you to get both sides of the story, at all times, both sides of the story, what overall help your perspective, right?

Kristen Crowley, she basically has been through the ranks of the LAFD, right? She has so much credibility when it comes to the overall department, when it comes to her rise in the ranks and her public reception, or public perception, right? And overall involvement, everybody looks towards her for her involvement in the national and international discussions as far as the firefighting and Homeland Security. So she's very much respected in her field.

And she was appointed as the 19th Fire Chief in 2022, making history as the first female and the first female fire chief, of the LAFD. So the reason why I'm saying all this is because when she comes out and says these type of things and we're going to pair it with some actual criticism of Gavin Newsom, just know that I took both sides into consideration and I'm leaning towards Crowley and the other political figures who are pointing out some of the things when it comes to Gavin Newsom. But it's not blame.

This is not the blame game. This is just laying out what should happen. going forward from here on what should happen going forward as far as putting all the resources towards these specific things and these are some of the more important aspects of where i got my information from so let's get into what the la fire chief crowley said in response to people asking about these LA wildfires period did the city of los angeles fail you and your department at our city it's my job to stand up as a chief and exactly say justifiably what the fire department needs to operate to meet the demands of the

community did they fail you that is our job and I tell you that's why I'm here so let's get us what we need so our firefighters can do their jobs did they fail you yes chief Kristen Crowley I believe the anchors that wanted to ask a question yes we had some comments we do Gigi if you could please ask her regarding the Times article that came out that the Santanaise Reservoir was closed to repairs and was empty, 117 million gallons of water could have been used in this fight. The question is about the Santa Inez Reservoir being empty.

There's been a lot of questions about that. Sure. So my stance on this is when a firefighter comes up to a hydrant, we expect there's going to be water. We don't control the water supply. Our firefighters are there to protect lives and property and to make sure that we're properly trained and equipped. That's my position on this. So if there's no water, I don't know how the water gets to the hydrants. Please defer that to DWP or whomever controls that part.

But I can tell you the resiliency of our firefighters, if there's no water, they're going to go find water. They're going to figure out a way to do the best they can with what they've got in a very dynamic situation. And I know you expressed concerns that those DWP hydrants would not be inspected thoroughly because of the budget cuts. that is something to discuss and we're going to look into that in regard to once again i want to say that because of these la wildfires the economic impact is estimated to be around 50 billion dollars that was just lost and it's well not lost the overall economic impact which takes into account everything the rebuilding you know the cleanup everything that's basically estimated to be 50 billion

dollars. And she's basically saying this could have been avoided. How we can ensure there's going to be water when we need it. But in the end, you know, I'm going to defer that to DWP and whomever else controls the supply. I can guarantee you that when our firefighters showed up on that day with what they had, they did absolutely everything they could do to rescue and to save people's lives and property. And that's the bottom line. Now let's get them what they need. to do their jobs.

And so- Let's get them water, Chief, because I was with your firefighters and they literally were watching a house burn down with pain in their eyes, not being able to do anything except pool, pull water from a swimming pool to try to save a nearby structure that wasn't burning and literally watching a house burned to the ground because they had no water. That's exactly right. But did they continue to work and did they continue to do what they had to do to do the best they could with what they had? Yes.

follow up. Thank you very much. All right. So that's directly from Kristen Crowley. So now let's look at what Gavin Newsom had to say because of course we want to take in both sides. So Gavin Newsom, he tweeted out and he basically said a lot of misinformation out there. Just launched a new site to ensure the public has access to fact-based data. around the southern California fires. The truth, California did not cut our firefighting budget. We have nearly doubled the size of our firefighting army

and built the world's largest, and built the world's largest aerial firefighting fleet. California has increased forest management tenfold since we took office. California will not allow for looting. And then he puts get the facts at Californiafire.com, which is right here if you want to look at this site. So obviously he's, you know, back in the claims

that he did not cut the firefighting budget. And obviously, imagine if he came out and said the opposite, right? Like, what's he supposed to say? Like, yeah, I cut the budget, so what? Like, imagine him coming out saying that. Like, that would be blasphemous in itself. So to say face, I think him coming out and saying that we did not cut the budget when the firefighter, you know, she's basically saying a lot of resources that could have been used and she laid out that they needed, they were not given.

So whose side are you on as far as the person who's actually over the actual firefighting department or the governor who's now under scrutiny for the simple fact that. These missteps and judgment have led to a wildfire that could have been not completely avoided, but it could have been significantly drastically improved as far as the containment factor. So when I'm looking at Gavin Newsom, and I'm looking at his responses, I do believe that he is somewhat trying to stay in the good graces of the public. But when there's ultimate footage and just news of people coming out and pinpointing how you could have avoided this, I just don't understand why now you want to come out and address this after the fact. when you know of course Trump in a political scene has been saying a lot of things when it came to this situation

but as far as the not allowing the redirection of water from northern California to the south which they claim could have helped in fighting the fires that these containment issues have risen right so as far as the forest management which i actually listened to the trump and joe rogan interview, because I listen to all the president's interviews, you know, it's not just one. But as far as, well, not the president, sorry, I listen to all the candidates who's running for president's interviews, right, just to see where their head is at. And for Trump, he was talking about the forest management for California being a big deal and basically saying that clearing the forest underbrush, which I think is like after a previous wildfire, like that stuff,

Like clearing that out would have decreased the fire's intensity and could prove more of a preventive, preventive measure. Also, they talked about, well, okay, so this is not Trump. This is other people. When they was talking about the firefighting resource, well, I literally just had to chief speak. So we don't even have to go over that. We understand the budget, the firefighting, they didn't have the appropriate resource. She said they laid out what they needed for the year. And guess what?

They told them to kick rocks. and now look at the LA wildfire situation. Right. So we literally just heard from the chief and she said they didn't have enough after they laid out what they needed to properly and adequately handle these wildfires. So that being said, overall,

this is a very horrendous situation. A lot of people are pointing towards climate change. A lot of people are ignorantly saying it's just because of the way that L.A. residents are living. I think the latter as far as the way they're living is very insensitive, especially at this point in time. And we just got to focus on the key concerns as far as the management of getting the firefighters, the resources that they need.

And the economic hurdles as far as the insurance companies, I'm not going to act like I have all the answers. This is a very complex issue. Insurance companies don't want to pay something that they feel like could be avoided. people who literally fund and put money into these insurance companies to get insured on a specific thing if that if that gets taken away because of some clause in the contract i could see while they're also upset so now it's not a black and white issue but what it is black and white is support or don't support i think even though i'm pointing out these issues with gavin newsome

we should still be able to support each other. You can condemn certain actions, but also push forward towards the solution. So hopefully that makes sense. I think it's basically, let me see. Oh, let's go over one more time. Okay, so the solution, I've covered everything as far as the LA wildfires.

That's basically what I wanted to get across is the overall complexity of this whole situation. the economic impact that this is going to have, remember, $50 billion. That money has to come from somewhere. It's going to impact way more people that you think. It may even impact you as far as prices. I think it's, I don't want to sound ignorant, but it's plywood what they use to put the houses back together.

Like the price of that, the price of a lot of these things when it comes to building houses is about to go through the roof. And then you have Trump, when he's about to put tariffs in place, And now companies are going to try to counteract that by raising their prices as far as buying in bulk. Like, it's going to be a lot of, which politics in general is very complex. People like to act like, you know, there's an overall answer for everything. But really, it's a lot of great area in politics. So I'm not going to act like I have all the answers.

But what I will say is that the water management, the forest management, the firefighting resources, and the budget. I'm not a politician, but I'm just saying those are the four things that needs to be addressed. So that is my coverage of the Los Angeles wildfires. Obviously, it's still ongoing. This is just my current analysis of the whole situation. And ultimately, it's just very saddening to see this happened, especially when people were saying that this could have been avoided.

And now not only, it's just, I mean, looking at some of these videos, looking at like how some of this ended up happening, like, honestly, this is insane. Like, it's estimated to be around, like I said, what was it, $50 billion? and that's at the low end 50 to 150 obviously 150 is a little exaggeration so let's just stick with 50 it could end up being

one of the more catastrophic events of all time I mean to put in perspective Hurricane Katrina that was in 2005 was the costliest natural disaster of all time that exceeded

$158 billion just to put in a perspective. So now when you look at this with the potential to be in the same light, that's what that 150 number came from. So I guess I wasn't too off. So that is why this is such a big deal and everybody is talking about it because even if you cover something that don't even dabble in this arena, I think as an influencer, you should bring these type of situations to the public because it's going to affect you if you live in the states if you don't live in LA it could still affect you because that 50 to 150 billion has to be recouped somehow has to be pulled from somewhere and gas groceries those are necessities that they know you

have to spend money on what happens when they start the two three X the price to pay for these types of these type of things right so that's what I'm talking about the effect of the wildfires. This is just something you need to know, no matter what you do in life. But it's just a sad situation overall. I ain't going to lie to you. I mean, I don't know what else to say.

One of the worst disasters of all time. And definitely within the California's fire history and maybe the most disastrous wildfire we've ever seen as far as in California and definitely one of, the most horrendous events ever as far as wildfires and the damage that is done up to this point. So with that being said, prayers and condolences to everybody affected by the LA wildfires. And as always, I like to provide solutions instead of just talking about just issues over and over instead of providing solutions.

So this is a solutions-based podcast in general. So I wanted to provide solutions for this. So basically, if you're far from L.A. and want to impact this positively as far as the victims, just know. The American Red Cross Foundation, California Fire Foundation, and the World Central Kitchen Foundation, or you could donate to local funds like the California, Community Foundation's wildfire recovery fund.

Let me say that again, just in case people are taking notes, you know, just in case the people who actually mean prayers and condolences are taking notes, right? The California Community Foundation's Wildfire Recovery Fund or the LAFD Foundation's Wildfire Emergency Fund, that will immediately help the long-term recovery of the California victims because of the, these wildfires. So once again, the American Red Cross for Shelter Food Health Services, that's what they help out with. The California Fire Foundation that helps out with the firefighters

and fire victims. The World Central Kitchen that helps out with meals to evacuees, the first responders, the California Community Foundation Wildfire Recovery, and the LAFD Foundation Wildfire Emergency Fund help with both immediate relief and long-term recovery. And with that being said, click my link to your bio. Let me know on one of my social medias. What do you think about this horrific situation when it comes to the Los Angeles wildfires? And ultimately, I mean, that's it. Like, ultimately, what do you think about this entire situation?
