SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
0:26
SPEAKER_01: Sharing the stuff on on uh everybody out there was good.
0:32
SPEAKER_00: So we were debating uh whether to do Facebook monetization or YouTube monetization.
0:37
SPEAKER_00: What do you guys think?
0:38
SPEAKER_00: Both.
0:39
SPEAKER_00: Both shit.
0:40
SPEAKER_01: We're trying to get that TikTok monetization.
0:42
SPEAKER_01: I'm trying to get that TikTok up right now and the Twitch, everything's all streams, uh, uh streaming.
0:50
SPEAKER_03: You think uh TikTok pays more than that's why you think so?
0:54
SPEAKER_03: Yeah, from what I see.
0:57
SPEAKER_00: I guess because I don't really have experience with it, and I I really don't know how it would go, you know what I mean?
1:02
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, hell yeah.
1:03
SPEAKER_01: You know what I mean?
1:04
SPEAKER_00: And then and then I figure if you put it all in if you put it all in one instead of just doing like a bunch of I don't know.
1:10
SPEAKER_00: That's just my thought.
1:11
SPEAKER_01: Well the thing is you can't put it all in one.
1:13
SPEAKER_01: That's what sucks, unless they come out with some program where you can't put it all in one.
1:16
SPEAKER_01: But you literally uh like I'm talking like all the uh like man where there's a program where you could just uh how can I say uh monitor everything all in one program, like your Facebook uh monetization, your YouTube monetization, your Twitch monetization, and your uh whatever else you're trying to monetize on, you know what I'm saying?
1:34
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, if they could put it all in one place, that would be dope as hell.
1:37
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I don't like that Facebook, like you they want you to get ads.
1:41
SPEAKER_01: Like it seems like they That's how they make their money and that's how you make your money.
1:45
SPEAKER_00: Well, yeah, right.
1:46
SPEAKER_01: But that's the same thing with YouTube though.
1:48
SPEAKER_00: Well, I don't think that you have to pay for well, yeah.
1:51
SPEAKER_00: I mean you you kinda I think yeah.
1:53
SPEAKER_00: I mean it could go both ways too because like Facebook doesn't want you to they Facebook doesn't they want you to stay on their platform, yeah.
2:00
SPEAKER_01: If you put a YouTube video on there, they're not gonna, you know, yeah, really promote like the way it used to be back in 2006, 2007, actually.
2:08
SPEAKER_01: Hell yeah.
2:08
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
2:09
SPEAKER_00: So I don't know.
2:10
SPEAKER_00: I that's why that's why I decided to go over to YouTube just to help with the monetization to see because like I said, I had a personal channel to where I I've grown like up to 7,000 followers just on my programming videos, and then it got monetized, and I was getting like a check a check every month, 300 bucks or something like that.
2:28
SPEAKER_00: It's not much, but but just that much.
2:30
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
2:31
SPEAKER_00: I mean it's cut it helps out a little bit, and then uh I was like, let me just do that with with my uh my podcast, do it that way because I already experienced it in that sense.
2:40
SPEAKER_00: And I did start it the podcast on Facebook, yeah, and there were I I did get some you know uh monetization.
2:48
SPEAKER_00: I got like two bucks or something just recently.
2:50
SPEAKER_00: I looked at it on my email or something like that.
2:52
SPEAKER_00: So you are monetized on your Facebook already.
2:55
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
2:56
SPEAKER_00: I just decided to go to YouTube just because I I've had experience with it and I figure that I can grow following quicker that way.
3:03
SPEAKER_00: And the way that I'm doing it is I'm I'm uh putting a link to every video.
3:07
SPEAKER_00: Like if I make a reel, I'll put the link.
3:10
SPEAKER_00: You know what I'm saying?
3:11
SPEAKER_00: Uh or even like Instagram stories.
3:13
SPEAKER_00: Most people look like look at Instagram stories.
3:15
SPEAKER_00: Uh you can put a link on there.
3:16
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
3:16
SPEAKER_00: So put the link on there, it'll go over there, or whatever.
3:19
SPEAKER_00: So that uh and since I've done that, the the subscribers will go up.
3:23
SPEAKER_00: And I think I don't know.
3:26
SPEAKER_00: And since I do that, they know where I'm at now.
3:29
SPEAKER_00: Okay, he's not on Facebook, he's not here, he's directly on YouTube.
3:32
SPEAKER_00: And you know, and then the audio version, if they want to I I haven't figured out how to monetize on there, so I think sponsors is how I'm doing it for the audio version.
3:41
SPEAKER_01: And that's what uh uh what are you using for that?
3:44
SPEAKER_01: The anchor?
3:45
SPEAKER_00: Uh I'm using uh Castos.

36:03
SPEAKER_01: Before we go any further, I want to clarify like the differences and like the the mixtapes and stuff like that.
36:09
SPEAKER_01: So a DJ Lil King, this is me personally.
36:11
SPEAKER_01: This and I don't know how anybody else does their shit, but me personally, a DJ Lil King mixtape, which I charge a hundred dollars for, is basically you coming with songs that you want to hear slowed and chopped.
36:23
SPEAKER_01: They could be any songs, any genre, they could be your songs, they could be your homeboy songs, they could be future Drake, whoever it is.
36:29
SPEAKER_01: Come with 14 or 15 songs and I'll slow and chop them.
36:32
SPEAKER_01: You want to come in-house, you can come in-house and do your shout-outs or all that.
36:35
SPEAKER_01: That's a hundred dollars.
36:36
SPEAKER_01: Then I also do projects, which a project, that's something that you're gonna actually put out to where I'm doing this because you're gonna put this on streaming platform.
36:45
SPEAKER_01: So a mixtape is more or less something that I would just press up and give you.
36:50
SPEAKER_01: Maybe if you maybe say, Hey, can you give me like 10 extra copies?
36:53
SPEAKER_01: I want to give them out to my homeboys or sell a few copies, then we can work a deal to where we come up with a number, I'll press you up some copies like that.
36:58
SPEAKER_01: But the$100 mixtape is basically just a mixtape for you.
37:01
SPEAKER_01: Like I said, you want you could.
37:03
SPEAKER_01: I don't if you want to go burn a couple of copies yourself and give them to your homeboys, I don't give a damn because you've already been paid for my services.
37:09
SPEAKER_01: But if you want to like do a project to upload to a streaming platform to what we call a DSP, that's basically I charge$250 for projects.
37:18
SPEAKER_00: DSP, what is that?
37:19
SPEAKER_01: A digital streaming platform.
37:21

38:55
SPEAKER_01: Well, see, that wasn't even like a mixtape, and that's the this is a funny story too, because I'll just be in there just fucking around doing songs and shout out to Alex because Alex is one of the ones who always says it.
39:04
SPEAKER_01: Hey, you're not recording that?
39:06
SPEAKER_01: I'm like, I like man, I'm just fucking around with this shit, bro.
39:11
SPEAKER_01: Like, I either record, like I could be recorded, but it's not I'm not even like to me, doing a mixtape is structure.
39:17
SPEAKER_01: I'm not, I don't like to just press record and just start just mix it and did like I like to have structure to it, so I like to know what songs that I'm gonna do on the tape.
39:25
SPEAKER_01: But that's where my dog Adrian shot shut up community that's tuned in right now.
39:29
SPEAKER_01: Like, he would just be in my crib and we just be chilling, smoked out, sipping Hallelene and shit.
39:34
SPEAKER_01: And man, I'd be like, Man, you want to do a mixtape?
39:37
SPEAKER_01: And he'd be like, Hell yeah, fuck it, let's do it.
39:38
SPEAKER_01: And me with no playlists or nothing, I'm just getting on there, picking a song, starting off with that song and just going.
39:44
SPEAKER_01: And next thing you know, we just so a lot of the mixtapes that we have were like freestyle.
39:48
SPEAKER_01: Like, I like to do mixtapes with structure, but there's always like I could I consider those like our DJ screw style mixtapes because those are the ones that weren't like playing.
39:57
SPEAKER_01: Those were the ones we just feeling good, we in the zone, we ain't doing shit, but watching videos on YouTube.
40:02
SPEAKER_01: So it's like, hey, fuck it, let's record.
40:04
SPEAKER_01: And then next thing you know, we start recording and we got damaged at the mixtape.
40:06
SPEAKER_01: And to me, some of those are some of the best because I feel like it wasn't no pressure on me to do those mixtapes, those were just organic from us just chilling, being vibing, hot as fuck, cleaning and just record.
40:17
SPEAKER_01: If I fuck up, if I fuck up because it wasn't, I ain't commissioned to do this.
40:21
SPEAKER_01: This is just something we're just doing just because we're having fun.
40:23
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so is that the most rewarding rewarding part for you?
40:26
SPEAKER_01: The most rewarding is whenever I finish any mixtape, I'm like, damn, bro, I had to do it, do the mix, go back and slow it down, edit it before I slow it down, make sure all the vocal levels and everything's good, then go back and slow it down.
40:39
SPEAKER_01: Once I slow it down, then I gotta chop up the tracks into each individual track, and then I have it ready to go after I edit all the title names and the track names.
40:47
SPEAKER_01: And once once I send it off to the person or give them their copy, that's when it's like okay.
40:54
SPEAKER_00: Take the money up front or oh yeah, hell yeah.
