💫 Over 32 years ago. I had my heart set in getting into the music industry. Registered with BMI. Did music seminars. Worked and learned the business. But. It seemed like no matter what I did. Something got in the way. After 7 years. I just left it as fate not being on my side. This wasn't to be a part of my journey. Years would pass before i learned of the evil that has been in the industry for decades. All along. God was protecting me.
yes, he was, I completely understand. I'm an artist and God saved me from all this evil, my dream did not fully come true, I'm grateful He saved me from that.
I was a music manger when I lived in SC and one of my artists finally gained the attention of labels. This was back in 2004 and it wasn’t as easy to get on. I drove him to the label office and the man told me I had to stay in the lobby area. I thought it was weird the manager couldn’t go in the back with the artist. My artist ran out about 30 minutes and told me he was done & he’d never try to get on with a label again. He literally grabbed my arm and ran us out of that office. Till this day I have no idea what they tried to do to him but he quit music a few years later & now he’s a pastor. That was my first and last time managing secular artists.
@@unfilteredtruth5164 man I asked him for years what happened and he won’t expose it. I even asked his wife to find out and he won’t tell her either. I’m assuming because he was a real street dude that it was something gay related & he’s just uncomfortable speaking on it. He was shook tho and I never seen someone that shook in the eyes before.
@@MsRayBay Wow yea insane story, but yea MsRay just like this dirty demonic music business right in our face but we don’t acknowledge it as that, it’s the same with the God n Devil business ( Sin being wages of death in the after life 2nd death ) we don’t take serious even tho right in our face.
@@andrewbrunnette1412 You really think tethering yourself to a corporation will fair much better? They have no intention of getting you paid. In fact, they actively work against it.

To make it in the music industry you have to have the strongest discernment, morals set in stone, and be able to think like a wolf, while keeping the spirit of a lamb. Evil lives and walks among us, and the only way to protect yourself is through prayer, and using wisdom. 🙏🏽
Artists need to be struggling with the world, as we're e addicted to chaos & conflict by design. Being dead helps to reinforce your chance to succes as an artist...😆😆😆
Nonono. You can't make it in the music industry unless you sell out. Which means forgetting about your morals, and the spirit of the lamb, and all that shit
The music business is very dark. You love your favorite singers and rappers. I believe they put dark spells into their music. The industry is not what you think! Please think before you get into the entertainment business.
@@jamarri7340 it's crazy because before I was an addict any song about oxy or Percocet would have no affect on me. But I can no longer listen to a song bout drugs cause it tempts me to contact a connection to get some. I could feel the evil.
With people warning you about the cartel/mafia, and how this puts a target on you, I want to remind you, “I say to you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that have no more that they can do. But I will warn you whom to fear: fear the One who, after He has killed, has authority to cast into hell; yes, I tell you, fear Him!” Luke 12:4-5

The military, the alphabets, the police, big business...it's all hollywood and entertainment industry. We independent Artists have to snatch it from them because Art is life, but they gonna make it hard as hell
Ever since I was 15, I started waking up to the evil world we live in and industries that run it. With the current path I’m on, I’ll be going into the film/music industry and it’s something I’m not entirely looking forward to because I don’t wanna be associated with other weird and predatory men. Recently, I even had my own crazy experience with a public figure who propositioned me with something (to say the least) in return for payment and connecting me with his people and when I said no, he started getting agitated and saying I’m “not willing to do what it takes to make it” amongst other things. I had always heard of people experiencing what I went through, but it was crazy to actually go through that myself and that let me know what games had to be played to make it and such
@@cueshq789 yeah you are totally right I’m guilty of putting myself/body/mind through the some of the worst life adversity just to try and keep my soul in place but amen
I've always believed that the music industry is the most demonic thing on earth (film and tv aren't too far behind). No one should own anyones god given talent. So glad that the world is waking up about the illusion of celebrities. I believe Lil Rod, and it's such a shame that this horrible stuff happened to him. I hope he continues to make music on his own terms.
Wow Game! You're a truly special individual! Thank you for sharing these truths and for gutting it out in your craft and delivering value and guidance to us. Much love. ✌🏾❤️
@@jaideveremy4371 if you think that’s fucked up, look into the medal of freedom. It’s literally the government giving medals to those who follow the agenda “like Ellen, Tom hanks, etc..” Crazy how the government is allowed to shape the public opinion of those in media “If they’re getting an award surely they’re good for society”
I was in music for the passion, found out what it really is and had to adapt! DONT CHANGE THE PERSON YOU ARE AND DONT SELL YOUR SOUL! You can still win and feed your family just have to understand what you thought it was it’s not! NOBODY CARES WORK HARDER
FACTS! he’s speaking truth, I’m in the industry, started out years ago as an assistant for top people even in the music video world. Its dark AF…. What I’ve seen and been asked to do would blow your mind. I moved in to producing movies in theaters etc so i got access to the top world of entertainment, intimate circles and scenarios. Celebrities and stars that i was close to. Diddy is not the only one, there are others, i was part of a clique with young Hollywood stars and there’s so much that happens behind the scenes. I knew tons of club owners who were shady. White Lotus, Avalon, Hollywood Athletic Club, they closed them down and reopened them over and over…. I got stories and receipts This guy has good energy he’s telling the truth but there’s more and he knows what I’m saying Stay strong stay vigilant stay faithful Jesus in King We are his his soldiers Together we rise!!!
Thank you for sharing. I got out. The hard rock / grunge scene was the same only it was more drug and sex involved. I got pretty far up but left because it destroys the spirit. Their time is up. God Bless and Carry On Brother. Subbed Wa, State 🙌
Since I started back in 2014, you were one the guys that gave us the information that you were able to provide from your perspective. We thank you for you service AND your drum kits !
this was the biggest gem about the music industry eye ever seen! i dont think this couldve been explained any better than how u did .. eye hope you do more videos like this not about music industry but jus things in life general we all need to hear as humans that podcasting type shiii 🔥🔥💯💯💜💜
Rappers been washing their money thru the music industry for 30+ years AKA how Trap Music came about meanwhile ppl think artists are making all their money from their music lmaoooo
@@Danthomas829 Yep. That's why "Meech" got into that shit. Just lost his way partying too fkn much and talking on that phone lol. You know a lot of those parties were deals going on in the club. That's why they'd lock it down when they show up. That bottle popping shit was a front too. Can't front on EXTACY though! lolol
Makes sense. I remember it came out that one was a scammer, like credit card lol and folks were shocked. I’m like when was the last time you bought a CD, they’re not as “wealthy” as you think.
U probably get this a lot but I replayed that Drake tutorial you made back in the day for hours. One of the true OGs that need their flowers. Nd now you’re exposing the truths for the next gen. Thank you for your work 🙏
Why is it sad, they could use NFTs instead of music atleast they are supporting. Even drug money is still funding. Could be worse than drugs like foreign overthrow, or enslavement. End of the day addiction and self destructive choices in life are a personal choice everyone is going to pass anyway so what is so bad about some people enjoying themselves in a way that destroys themselves quickly, and not all drugs will destroy you, technical food and water are chemicals too. I think making healthy lifestyle choices can help people find happiness but whether it is a chemical in a powder from or a juicy burger there are limits on what the body can take before it destroys self. IMO all the criminalization stuff is probably what perpetuates a culture of abuse rather than people accessing stuff that is good and people use it in a way that is relatively responsible and non self destructive. IMO the music industry should be happy anyone is funding them. I don't personally use illicit drugs but I am eating canned pork right now and I realize if I were taking MDMA instead right now in the right dose it might be less destructive than the pork.
New York City, late 1970's and early eighties. If you walked the streets of Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan or the Bronx on a saturday, you'd come upon a block party or they be setting up for a block party that day. So we'd double back and it would turn into a dope jam. They would have stacks of speakers and shiny new McIntosh, Cerwin Vega, Crown, Phase Linear amps. I'd wonder...where'd they get the money for all this dope ass equipment. Ah ha, the drug game. The DJ's would have crew or affiliates. It was the same thing when the disco's started in New York.The first disco's were restaurants with the tables removed and or hotel ballrooms. There was always someone circulating in the crowd that had anything you want. Who would think that when you listen to your fav song on the radio and your humming along, what went into the making of that song. And it's a shame that in most situations someone got ripped off as well either by the label, the manager, the promoter or even the club owner. And you with stars and dollar signs in your eyes are thinking; yeah i'm doing the damn thing. Guess again. If it ain't in writing and you don't or aren't seeing any real money then it's most likely you who's getting ripped off. The music game can be seedy, cut throat, dangerous and weird all at the same time.
As Americans we should stand together against all this evil. And why shame this man who may help bring light to this evil. We as human beings can wake up and try to love and live a decent life then no one would trip on pride or power trip. I know I’m not the only one who’s praying constantly to Jesus the true living God for peace! Christ will have the last laugh repent and believe in Jesus before it’s too late, in Christ amen!
This dude knows what's up , im from mexico , he has the facts right even not being from here , i'm from one of mexicos hot spots for covert cartel activity , meaning "nice quiet neighborhood" , lots of human traficcking, peple missing , all young women being exposed to "being madamed" at any given day by one of their own friends , those business are all covered up by the "local economy" meaning these people take the slavery and prostitution money and put on "small local shops" such as grocery, fruit , "car washes" , car engineering / mechanics. On a side note what crushed me is to see women actually interested in such , like some of mexicos biggest femalemurder cases or public in the media point to have happened in ways that most people don't understand because it lacks the part where there wasn't a crazy stalker guy involved , but a lot of them happen at "partys" where people "network" , so a lot of these people knew exactly where they were going to make business , it just went wrong at some point, horrible horrible things , too heartbreaking and paradigm view of the world altering , so sad , may god or love or the universe or whatever is the representation of good to you be with us because damn, stuff is effed up.
I definitely believe the stories I've heard about those disgusting diddy parties and I believe everything cassie and others have came forward with and after seeing the video of diddy attacking cassie I can only imagine all the other horrifying stuff that either wasn't captured or hasn't been leaked yet. He's a monster and I don't think he's the only one in the music industry that is just as horrible. I think we'll be seeing more come out about it in the future.
Some people in the Music Industry are Trapped, some are sellouts, some r cowards, some brave, some ok but have no pull 😁 and some r just no-good. Somebody gotta be the scapegoat ... somebody have to be the Fall Guy. Some of their asses gotta take one for the Team. 💰 The world 🌎 is Ying-yang. 💯 Plus... good and evil Spirits are real. 💯 Most people are in the dark as usual. Sometimes they eventually understand but a lot of times they never know the real deal. There's a sucker born everyday. God Speed. 🙌🙏
Jesus is king. Lord I know you have a purpose for me. Even though at times I do not understand. I have complete trust in you. Heavenly Father. Being a single mom with two children with special needs is overwhelming at times. Every month is a struggle to get by. But as I struggle to pay rent and as I struggle to buy groceries for my children. God give me strength.❤️
Truly, this video was so helpful! I am a growing musician and I have big dreams of fulfilling all my creative visions but I want to make sure I’m doing it the right way, and showing love in the world with an end result of love, not twisted into something corrupt. I’m not in the music industry yet but this was so helpful to learn about the ways artists truly are controlled. Thank you I will not forget this advice, and god bless you man 🌸🌸
The fun of music culture is in its hedonistic accoutrements. Having pleasure and joy get corrupted by hurting people drags it down to evil. Record labels' investment in for-profit carceral system furthers exploitation.
Been a fan of yours since 2018 since I started producing, been a huge help to the community my man. Appreciate you calling out the industry for what it is so no one is blind sided by the evil that lurks. Keep it real G 🙏🏻
When I was younger I thought it would be amazing to be a singer and become famous! As I grew and learned more about the truth in that industry I thank God I didn't get involved in it!! Sometimes when you want something and it doesn't happen you are being protected from evil. God bless you all
back in the 90's with the rise off the hardcore scene in the netherlands , there where party's everywhere. but most off the smaller venue's income came off the profit off selling alcohol..But well.. most of the visitors didn't need alcohol to party all night through. So there where certain places which turned off the water in the bathrooms ,just to sell you water. and some had there own "associates" to sell the s... and shared their profits with the owners... So some people where caught by the "security" , and then offered to buy back the goods they just confiscated. But what you described with how they lure in women..damm that's way more evil imho.. thank you for this video
What tripped me out is when I started to learn about Shirley Temple. Of course I've always known who she was and what she was known for. But i never questioned the movies and roles that she did. I was born in '89, so it was a little antsy to sit there and watch the black n white shows but curiosity made me able to watch and OMG!!! when I watched and listened and watched some more and then learned of the parents motives I was behooved! (they only cared about their daughter making them money no matter what). This is a sick and cruel world that we live in. And the name of one of her movies is Virgi. I thought I was trippn and misreading it, thinking that her characters' name was Virginia. But nope! It was "Virgi" for a reason. Sp much more...............
We have been learning for quite a while now that the music industry is in fact very evil, but this video had substance and has very valuable information. So thank you brother and God bless! 🙏
The entertainment business is nothing more than just a cover for illegal trades and money laundering that actually takes place. It's basically organised crime that takes place from behind the scenes. As long as the illusions of wealth, popularity, and influence are shown to the masses, you will never comprehend what the artists actually had to do to achieve those successes. It's a place of broken dreams and vices that ruin a person, and the more you align yourself with some of these sick individuals, the sicker you end up. In most cases, the abused go on to become the abuser if no help is properly sought after. The entertainment business has always had strong ties to mobs and cartels. And when you follow the money, you'll be shocked to discover who the real players are behind the scenes. Always stay prayed up no matter what. "All that glitters is never gold."
Thank you for exposing this I pray more people in all areas of our world come forward and expose this evil. The Scripture states we are to expose the evil and bring it into the light.
I've been watching the channel to try and learn FL Studio. I'm not a religious person, but from a moral standpoint -- and as a career DJ/performer -- I appreciate where you're coming from on how the dark side of the music business functions. That said, would you be down to do a follow-up and talk about some examples of people who were able to gain success without getting sucked into that dark side?
I'm glad you are putting this out there. These are actual facts. I also have insider info on how and when the payola thing began with Funk Flex at Hot 97. He had a whole DJ conglomarate called Big Dawg Pitbulls all over the tri-state area that he taught how to take payments for airplay by unsigned independent artists. Those unknown artists are usually funded by street dudes with street money that pay the DJ'S $1000-1500 or whatever to play their artist song a certain amount of times a day for a certain amount of time, eventually the song becomes hot because it gets played so much that people start to request the song. I'll just stop there.
we are entering the Aquarius age for the next 20 years. This is why the truth is coming out, and why people are stopping to care about hierarchy. For the last 20 years, we had Capricorn and the cap thrives on hierarchy and status, image, climbing all the time

This is a sick universal operation.
I pieced this together on the outside when I noticed rappers had eras for drugs- 2010’s Molly
2015’s xans and lean and 2020’s percs
And back further, too. 80s coke into crack and heroin in the 90s.. the metal scene had very similar trends:/
artists need drugs to cope with how fake + vile the industry is

@@starchild7820Hailey who?
@SilviaHoard are u serious, the one that played blk little mermaid
The military, the alphabets, the police, big business...it's all hollywood and entertainment industry. We independent Artists have to snatch it from them because Art is life, but they gonna make it hard as hell
Exactly right
"The alphabets"? oh damn i didn't think we were part of the elite despite the elite and society screwing us up in the daily.
Ever since I was 15, I started waking up to the evil world we live in and industries that run it. With the current path I’m on, I’ll be going into the film/music industry and it’s something I’m not entirely looking forward to because I don’t wanna be associated with other weird and predatory men. Recently, I even had my own crazy experience with a public figure who propositioned me with something (to say the least) in return for payment and connecting me with his people and when I said no, he started getting agitated and saying I’m “not willing to do what it takes to make it” amongst other things. I had always heard of people experiencing what I went through, but it was crazy to actually go through that myself and that let me know what games had to be played to make it and such
Bro stop apologizing for exposing evil. Ur protected by good 👍. Thanks for the information and education.❤
His soul may be but doesnt mean his life is 😭😭
@@cueshq789 I fully believe in protecting our souls with our lives. Our soul is eternal, our lives are not.
@@GaryTornado-zy2mz we have this external shell for a reason 👍🏾
@@cueshq789 yeah you are totally right I’m guilty of putting myself/body/mind through the some of the worst life adversity just to try and keep my soul in place but amen
I was blind but now I see the industry as it is and not what it appears to be.
It appears to be dark.
I've always believed that the music industry is the most demonic thing on earth (film and tv aren't too far behind). No one should own anyones god given talent. So glad that the world is waking up about the illusion of celebrities. I believe Lil Rod, and it's such a shame that this horrible stuff happened to him. I hope he continues to make music on his own terms.
I appreciate the path you chose and the knowledge you share
the true nature of the music business is crazy and deep , damn it goes too deep , everything about music
It goes even more darker down the rabbit hole,ppl don’t even know 😅🤐
Oh I know
Then tell us. Chances are we wont believe it.
@ Adenochrome and sacrifices
Wow Game! You're a truly special individual! Thank you for sharing these truths and for gutting it out in your craft and delivering value and guidance to us. Much love. ✌🏾❤️
I concur. Through my experience with music I met a wide spectrum of folks. Some clean, but others...were either using or selling... big facts my guy.
Thank you for Truth. May you be blessed always and remain brave.
Finally I understand how mediocre and no talent “ artists” are so prevalent!!! I knew it wasn’t Bout the art but I couldn’t explain it!
Also the most evil thing in the music industry is that all the artists sell their souls to the devil for Money and fame
nah that's just the tip of the iceberg
@@jaideveremy4371 if they selling their souls it’s to demonic entities. Meaning demons walk among the earth in disguise.🥸
@@jaideveremy4371 if you think that’s fucked up, look into the medal of freedom. It’s literally the government giving medals to those who follow the agenda “like Ellen, Tom hanks, etc..”
Crazy how the government is allowed to shape the public opinion of those in media “If they’re getting an award surely they’re good for society”
Facts
Michael Rubin's "All White" party? lol
This world is completly fake
True 😢
I was in music for the passion, found out what it really is and had to adapt! DONT CHANGE THE PERSON YOU ARE AND DONT SELL YOUR SOUL! You can still win and feed your family just have to understand what you thought it was it’s not! NOBODY CARES WORK HARDER
Thank you for sharing this . Everyone who wants to join the industry needs to hear this.
FACTS! he’s speaking truth, I’m in the industry, started out years ago as an assistant for top people even in the music video world. Its dark AF…. What I’ve seen and been asked to do would blow your mind.
I moved in to producing movies in theaters etc so i got access to the top world of entertainment, intimate circles and scenarios. Celebrities and stars that i was close to. Diddy is not the only one, there are others, i was part of a clique with young Hollywood stars and there’s so much that happens behind the scenes.
I knew tons of club owners who were shady. White Lotus, Avalon, Hollywood Athletic Club, they closed them down and reopened them over and over…. I got stories and receipts
This guy has good energy he’s telling the truth but there’s more and he knows what I’m saying
Stay strong stay vigilant stay faithful
Jesus in King
We are his his soldiers
Together we rise!!!
Thank you for sharing. I got out. The hard rock / grunge scene was the same only it was more drug and sex involved. I got pretty far up but left because it destroys the spirit. Their time is up. God Bless and Carry On Brother. Subbed Wa, State 🙌
Since I started back in 2014, you were one the guys that gave us the information that you were able to provide from your perspective. We thank you for you service AND your drum kits !
this was the biggest gem about the music industry eye ever seen! i dont think this couldve been explained any better than how u did .. eye hope you do more videos like this not about music industry but jus things in life general we all need to hear as humans that podcasting type shiii 🔥🔥💯💯💜💜
for future use bro, it’s “i” not eye..
Game you're really giving important resources and knowledge to music lovers, God bless you dude
Rappers been washing their money thru the music industry for 30+ years AKA how Trap Music came about meanwhile ppl think artists are making all their money from their music lmaoooo
This explains why trap music is so lifeless and boring. Low quality people making low quality art. Makes absolute sense.
Yeah that Shii is basic common sense.. it’s right in ppls faces.. best place to hide is in plain sight
@@Danthomas829 Yep. That's why "Meech" got into that shit. Just lost his way partying too fkn much and talking on that phone lol. You know a lot of those parties were deals going on in the club. That's why they'd lock it down when they show up. That bottle popping shit was a front too. Can't front on EXTACY though! lolol
Ecstasy* @@fawtyseven5516
Makes sense. I remember it came out that one was a scammer, like credit card lol and folks were shocked. I’m like when was the last time you bought a CD, they’re not as “wealthy” as you think.
U probably get this a lot but I replayed that Drake tutorial you made back in the day for hours. One of the true OGs that need their flowers. Nd now you’re exposing the truths for the next gen. Thank you for your work 🙏
FL LEGEND💐
never thought that the music industry would have to do with cartels. kinda sad that they would do that just for money
Organized crime has always been intertwined with entertainment
Key word is “Industry”
@@dyce3008 big facts.
Why is it sad, they could use NFTs instead of music atleast they are supporting. Even drug money is still funding. Could be worse than drugs like foreign overthrow, or enslavement. End of the day addiction and self destructive choices in life are a personal choice everyone is going to pass anyway so what is so bad about some people enjoying themselves in a way that destroys themselves quickly, and not all drugs will destroy you, technical food and water are chemicals too. I think making healthy lifestyle choices can help people find happiness but whether it is a chemical in a powder from or a juicy burger there are limits on what the body can take before it destroys self. IMO all the criminalization stuff is probably what perpetuates a culture of abuse rather than people accessing stuff that is good and people use it in a way that is relatively responsible and non self destructive. IMO the music industry should be happy anyone is funding them. I don't personally use illicit drugs but I am eating canned pork right now and I realize if I were taking MDMA instead right now in the right dose it might be less destructive than the pork.
That's why they always rapping about illicit activities in their songs
New York City, late 1970's and early eighties. If you walked the streets of Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan or the Bronx on a saturday, you'd come upon a block party or they be setting up for a block party that day. So we'd double back and it would turn into a dope jam. They would have stacks of speakers and shiny new McIntosh, Cerwin Vega, Crown, Phase Linear amps. I'd wonder...where'd they get the money for all this dope ass equipment. Ah ha, the drug game. The DJ's would have crew or affiliates. It was the same thing when the disco's started in New York.The first disco's were restaurants with the tables removed and or hotel ballrooms. There was always someone circulating in the crowd that had anything you want.
Who would think that when you listen to your fav song on the radio and your humming along, what went into the making of that song. And it's a shame that in most situations someone got ripped off as well either by the label, the manager, the promoter or even the club owner. And you with stars and dollar signs in your eyes are thinking; yeah i'm doing the damn thing. Guess again. If it ain't in writing and you don't or aren't seeing any real money then it's most likely you who's getting ripped off. The music game can be seedy, cut throat, dangerous and weird all at the same time.
Damn…thank you for sharing your stories and experiences.
Rejection is Gods protection.
As Americans we should stand together against all this evil. And why shame this man who may help bring light to this evil. We as human beings can wake up and try to love and live a decent life then no one would trip on pride or power trip. I know I’m not the only one who’s praying constantly to Jesus the true living God for peace! Christ will have the last laugh repent and believe in Jesus before it’s too late, in Christ amen!
This dude knows what's up , im from mexico , he has the facts right even not being from here , i'm from one of mexicos hot spots for covert cartel activity , meaning "nice quiet neighborhood" , lots of human traficcking, peple missing , all young women being exposed to "being madamed" at any given day by one of their own friends , those business are all covered up by the "local economy" meaning these people take the slavery and prostitution money and put on "small local shops" such as grocery, fruit , "car washes" , car engineering / mechanics.
On a side note what crushed me is to see women actually interested in such , like some of mexicos biggest femalemurder cases or public in the media point to have happened in ways that most people don't understand because it lacks the part where there wasn't a crazy stalker guy involved , but a lot of them happen at "partys" where people "network" , so a lot of these people knew exactly where they were going to make business , it just went wrong at some point, horrible horrible things , too heartbreaking and paradigm view of the world altering , so sad , may god or love or the universe or whatever is the representation of good to you be with us because damn, stuff is effed up.
Thank you for this.
I definitely believe the stories I've heard about those disgusting diddy parties and I believe everything cassie and others have came forward with and after seeing the video of diddy attacking cassie I can only imagine all the other horrifying stuff that either wasn't captured or hasn't been leaked yet. He's a monster and I don't think he's the only one in the music industry that is just as horrible. I think we'll be seeing more come out about it in the future.
That was on point and explained well. Great content.
14 minutes in... looking at the name of the channel.. you taught me fl studio way back. I used to watch your tutorials
Some people in the Music Industry are Trapped, some are sellouts, some r cowards, some brave, some ok but have no pull 😁 and some r just no-good. Somebody gotta be the scapegoat ... somebody have to be the Fall Guy. Some of their asses gotta take one for the Team. 💰 The world 🌎 is Ying-yang. 💯 Plus... good and evil Spirits are real. 💯 Most people are in the dark as usual. Sometimes they eventually understand but a lot of times they never know the real deal. There's a sucker born everyday. God Speed. 🙌🙏
Jesus is king. Lord I know you have a purpose for me. Even though at times I do not understand. I have complete trust in you. Heavenly Father. Being a single mom with two children with special needs is overwhelming at times. Every month is a struggle to get by. But as I struggle to pay rent and as I struggle to buy groceries for my children. God give me strength.❤️
Truly, this video was so helpful! I am a growing musician and I have big dreams of fulfilling all my creative visions but I want to make sure I’m doing it the right way, and showing love in the world with an end result of love, not twisted into something corrupt. I’m not in the music industry yet but this was so helpful to learn about the ways artists truly are controlled. Thank you I will not forget this advice, and god bless you man 🌸🌸
It’s sad thinking about this side of the industry when you are so passionate about music…
a producer told me straight up "You Get in the industry on your back"
You are brave because a lot of the labels are gangster/Cartel run.
and now I need to set up a cartel ring to make it in the industry, this is just getting harder and harder.
Loool
😂😂😂
😂😂😂 naah u just gotta get around the guys that are in it and earn their trust
Yeah keep these coming . These talks is the best
Thank You for being 1 of the few who is not scared to speak the truth without being so vague!!
The fun of music culture is in its hedonistic accoutrements. Having pleasure and joy get corrupted by hurting people drags it down to evil. Record labels' investment in for-profit carceral system furthers exploitation.
Been a fan of yours since 2018 since I started producing, been a huge help to the community my man. Appreciate you calling out the industry for what it is so no one is blind sided by the evil that lurks. Keep it real G 🙏🏻
this video really spoke to me on a deeper level! needed that, good word fam!
When I was younger I thought it would be amazing to be a singer and become famous! As I grew and learned more about the truth in that industry I thank God I didn't get involved in it!!
Sometimes when you want something and it doesn't happen you are being protected from evil.
God bless you all
I’m lowkey addicted to these stories
Same
Omg you just blew my mind about the entertainment industry 🤯 thanks for educating me and speaking the truth 🙏🏾✌️
This is actually crazy I thought that the music industry was passion.
I hear some people have a passion for cocaine. (Bad joke)
💔 My ❤️ when I found out what goes on behind the scenes in the music industry
Welcome to earth
"be filled with the spirit of truth" i know what God he serves. 😊
Look into the death clause of every recording contract and you will understand why things keep happening the way they do in the industry.
The only way i found this video was by going through a rabbit whole of diddy and exposing the music industry videos
welcome to the other side of the matrix 😎
back in the 90's with the rise off the hardcore scene in the netherlands , there where party's everywhere. but most off the smaller venue's income came off the profit off selling alcohol..But well.. most of the visitors didn't need alcohol to party all night through. So there where certain places which turned off the water in the bathrooms ,just to sell you water. and some had there own "associates" to sell the s... and shared their profits with the owners... So some people where caught by the "security" , and then offered to buy back the goods they just confiscated. But what you described with how they lure in women..damm that's way more evil imho.. thank you for this video
Thank you for sharing you truly care about us bro love you
What tripped me out is when I started to learn about Shirley Temple. Of course I've always known who she was and what she was known for. But i never questioned the movies and roles that she did. I was born in '89, so it was a little antsy to sit there and watch the black n white shows but curiosity made me able to watch and OMG!!! when I watched and listened and watched some more and then learned of the parents motives I was behooved! (they only cared about their daughter making them money no matter what). This is a sick and cruel world that we live in. And the name of one of her movies is Virgi. I thought I was trippn and misreading it, thinking that her characters' name was Virginia. But nope! It was "Virgi" for a reason. Sp much more...............
Nice that you tied that to the parables of Jesus. The Spirit of truth is so important too. Interesting video for sure.
I need more of this cartel/street money stories..
We have been learning for quite a while now that the music industry is in fact very evil, but this video had substance and has very valuable information. So thank you brother and God bless! 🙏
The entertainment business is nothing more than just a cover for illegal trades and money laundering that actually takes place. It's basically organised crime that takes place from behind the scenes. As long as the illusions of wealth, popularity, and influence are shown to the masses, you will never comprehend what the artists actually had to do to achieve those successes.
It's a place of broken dreams and vices that ruin a person, and the more you align yourself with some of these sick individuals, the sicker you end up. In most cases, the abused go on to become the abuser if no help is properly sought after. The entertainment business has always had strong ties to mobs and cartels. And when you follow the money, you'll be shocked to discover who the real players are behind the scenes. Always stay prayed up no matter what. "All that glitters is never gold."
Wow you are AWESOME thank you so much for your love and courage to be putting this INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT INFORMATION out there!!
He just told Belly, Exit Wounds, Scarface, and all the other movies that's been made like that
Thank you for exposing this I pray more people in all areas of our world come forward and expose this evil. The Scripture states we are to expose the evil and bring it into the light.
I've been watching the channel to try and learn FL Studio. I'm not a religious person, but from a moral standpoint -- and as a career DJ/performer -- I appreciate where you're coming from on how the dark side of the music business functions.
That said, would you be down to do a follow-up and talk about some examples of people who were able to gain success without getting sucked into that dark side?
I'm glad you are putting this out there. These are actual facts. I also have insider info on how and when the payola thing began with Funk Flex at Hot 97. He had a whole DJ conglomarate called Big Dawg Pitbulls all over the tri-state area that he taught how to take payments for airplay by unsigned independent artists. Those unknown artists are usually funded by street dudes with street money that pay the DJ'S $1000-1500 or whatever to play their artist song a certain amount of times a day for a certain amount of time, eventually the song becomes hot because it gets played so much that people start to request the song. I'll just stop there.
we are entering the Aquarius age for the next 20 years. This is why the truth is coming out, and why people are stopping to care about hierarchy. For the last 20 years, we had Capricorn and the cap thrives on hierarchy and status, image, climbing all the time
Yes! Not enough people understand how the ages and Pluto generations affect the world. It’s observable, and so obvious to me!
It’s going to be larger than that….
U seem soo trust worthy. Its to the point…I’d give you my banking info lol 😂😂
8:05 the people that assisted and also aren’t held accountable make me sick.
I took the love away from music production a while ago for myself, and hearing stories like this is essentially “never meet your hero’s” in a sense. I like this type of vid!
@@TheRav3n crazy how the ones you look up to the most end up disappointing in real life, shattering the deep admiration we have. lil quill def disappointed me over text. Just goes to show how this system is keeping those passionate about music OUT because they don’t sell themselves for the agents
@@prod.wall23 preach preacher!!
@@TheRav3n I try man but nobody cares about what a non-celebrity thinks🚮
@@prod.wall23 we the trend setters, my boy! Keep preaching, it only falls on deaf ears when you stop speaking!
Thw dirty money explanation makes a lot of sense because tt is what Shug Night was all about...dirty money. Even Diddy had the title "Dirty Money ". 😊
Jesus is God the same yesterday today and forever
Thank you for speaking out love, bless you!
Dont go to networking parties
Facts 💯
💯percent my bwoii...I love how you broke it down...anyone viewing this if they were oblivious to the inner workings of the 🎼industry...they shouldn't be anymore...good stuff champ..keep going..✊🏾
YOU DID GOOD MAN, KEEP THE TRUTH UP FRONT,NO MATTER WHAT
I'm going to say you are telling the truth! You have been waiting to get this truth and I hope it saves someone from getting caught in that soul trap! We are accountable for what we know to be true and reward or consequence, always follows!
you needed to say this everyone will realize this eventually its crazy how naive young kids are getting into music thinking its all about having fun making music
This was an incredible explanation. Thank you for sharing ❤
Dude. You rule.
Makes alot of sense. Please protect yourself
yo this video is crazy thanks for posting this 🙏
