New contenders for my Pixar debut

🚨Jeymes Samuel says JAY-Z works out every morning around 5-6AM & he raps the verses he comes up with to Jeymes over the phone, & then that’s it. He doesn’t record them anymore but he still let’s some people hear what he’s thinking

Jay-Z’s longtime collaborator Young Guru says it’s common for hip-hop producers to make funk and soul samples with AI, rather than license original music or hire musicians: “They’re getting really good at prompting.” #RollingStoneFutureOfMusic Read: rollingstone.com/music/music-fe…

Tef Poe & Ab-Soul Crow Life & TDE My first time meeting the god Ab Soul. He was supposed to hit the stage with us at Blue Note in Los Angeles but he had a schedule conflict and couldn’t make it. But he granted us a real interview for our show and that’s not easy to accomplish from one of the most isolated people in Hip Hop. We talked about an assortment of things for over an hour. KRS ONE was in the studio with us. Talib Kweli in the lab with us. #LemmeAskYouThis podcast being built out the mud and supported by the goats. I want to thank Soulo for chopping it up with us. I’m not sure when his episode will drop but it’s on the way. Also shout out to his producer Python P who was in the lab with us.

They gone try to make it look uncool when you access a place they know you will easily succeed in ...I learned that in the hood ... oh he a cameraman he a lame, he make clothes he soft , chase ya dreams dawg trust me I did it before!

I didn’t know that the farm dogs were going to lose their jobs too.

We need more talk about exponentials.

the world has never experienced exponential curves across every domain simultaneously. for the first time in our history, exponential growth won’t be isolated to a single domain — it will happen across everything, all at once. that’s why the “g” in agi is the unlock.

This is the time to be a mad scientist philosopher hacker.

KUMINGA NEARLY FULL COURT SHOT 😱 EVEN HE COULDN'T BELIEVE IT 😂🔥

I’m still chasing the flavor of that turkey and gravy that they served at lunch in elementary school.

A guy built a fake band, put it on Spotify, and 80,000 people had no idea. Then it got even weirder and the tech behind this is wild: - Used Suno AI to generate every song sounded completely real. - Created AI music videos with fake members and faces. - Built fake bios and a Tokyo address to sell the story. - 80,000+ monthly listeners, fans had it in their Spotify Wrapped top 5, merch was selling​. - Community sleuths exposed it and the AI-generated hands in the videos gave it away, creator traced to Europe, not Japan​ But here's where it gets insane: Instead of running, the creator flew to Tokyo and recruited 7 real musicians to perform the AI songs live​. they've played multiple shows, more are booked​. the creator's response: "In an age where AI is taking everyone's jobs, this has actually created jobs. It's done the complete opposite."​ This is the first time ever an AI fake band became a real touring act and it worked. Nobody in the music industry knows what to do about it​​.

Thinking about putting together a small monthly tech dinner in Miami. Nothing formal, just a table somewhere new each month. Anyone into that?

Doing it.

Oh nooo……..

Relive every single bucket from Bam's historic 83-PT performance 👏
