Authenticity in Branding. an episode from myself and @norarahimian.bsky.social on YouTube from our Office Hours series. www.youtube.com/live/ZIR3rJC...

people really be like "YOU NEED TO HEAL" while actively causing damage that needs to be healed from.

little pup is not happy after his shots yesterday. and has been side eyeing ever since.

you just gotta let people run with their assumptions. like you're way tf off but if you wanna run with it who am i to stop you?

Live right now! the morning show with Open Mike Eagle: Jimmy Kimmel | new Danny Brown | new Thundercat | Jay Electronica til it gets weird twitch.tv/open_mike_ea...

released an interview on Saturday. got at least 3 more in the works to put out before the end of the year.

don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up. don't give up.

Stardust is a new LP incoming from Danny Brown. no clue when it drops but vinyl preorders are available on Amazon with a February 2026 date. could be a placeholder though.

if you're in the studio working on your 2026 effort/release for the love of bacon pancakes DOCUMENT even a few pieces of that process as it gives YOU ENDLESS PROMO material to use during your rollout. AND IT COSTS $0. you're already in the studio TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT TIME.

i do a smidge of everything. need written assets like a bio or a press release. i do that. need hands-on help with your rollout, goals to grow your audience etc. i do that too. need a speaker at your event, university or the like i do that as well. i'd be honored to work with you. drop a line!

the Gorillaz new album 'The Mountain' doesn't come out for SIX MORE MONTHS but they've already started their rollout. a rollout can last much much longer than a month before and after release.

grateful to have people compliment how ive trained my little pup because i super needed that you have no idea 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

gonna watch Superman with my pup today and tell him he's related to Krypto.

new interview with the great great Jai Yoko is out now! bigsto.substack.com/p/nine-quest...

in between subliminal street sounds and critical beatdowns.

oh Megan Thee Stallion was on Family Feud lemme watch for educational purposes to figure out what the masses have to say about critical topics in our society.

Bandcamp Friday is 16 days away. take a second to reach out to your supporters and EXPLAIN what that means and how their support is important. whether you're releasing something new that day or not.

send out a newsletter by the end of the month going over how you're going to close out the year. no need to overthink it. -remind subs what you've accomplished this year so far. -include a call to action -host a contest -let subs know what's to come and how they can help.

If anyone wants to indulge in some reality TV convo, @bigsto.bsky.social and i are talking about Secret Lives and Real Housewives on Office Hours today because we can all use a mental health episode: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouXP...

give me Marvel Epic Collection suggestions idk what to get next...can't be Spiderman tho i just got Kraven's Last Hunt.

uhhh hold up a minute. just laying here pondering life's mysteries watching Hot Ones ya know how it is and... Keke Palmer and Sean Evans brought the fantasy from Chicken Shop Date to fruition. we are in a simulation. but there's hope yet.

YouTube is for more than music videos. discussed it for the channel for 30 mins. easy free game. tired of yall not using the literal free resources at your fingertips. but complaining about the scammers. sit down for 30. take some notes. apply it. then cook. www.youtube.com/live/-0XRtCS...

artists will ignore your work. then eventually realize you know what you're doing and inquiry. then ghost. ignore your follow up after ghosting. then months later hit you with a track to playlist 😑😑😑

if you're a Cincinnati...or Ohio, Kentucky artist in general id consider reaching out to some of the INDEPENDENT bookstores that are a part of the Book Crawl next month. sounds like a prime and perfect opportunity to land PERFORM and land some more fans.

direct-to-consumer. keep funneling followers to your platforms. because change is coming and soon.

the next edition of Skate comes out in EARLY ACCESS for FREE tomorrow at 1pm.

a brand new week is here. another chance to learn. another chance to earn. may the bag be forever in your favor.

really fucking hard to narrow down my album list to 10 im supposed to write about because so much good music and OVERLOOKED music dropped this year.

i have 3 different tabs of untitled.stream unreleased projects on my phone from all over the hip-hop spectrum. some of it will be released this week others won't be released til...who knows. regardless i am thankful & blessed.

if you have a library card see if your library is linked up with Libby or Hoopla...both platforms over a plethora of books, comics, audiobooks and more you can access STRAIGHT FROM YOUR PHONE. years ago i read all of Batman: Court of Owls for free on Hoopla.

two comics down since ive found my way back to em. -Green Lantern: Far Sector -Garfield Hangs Out next up is Infinity Gauntlet, then Sonic IDW #1 and then we dive into our Halloween reading list.

if those leaked panels are true. that DC & Marvel crossover is looking kinda fire.

after your release write a thank you letter to your supporters, another simple way to get them involved while pushing to the album too.

opportunity. x.com/FatHippyOhio...

there are some artists out there who are just as rude, selfish and scummy as the industry they're constantly complaining about but simultaneously want to be accepted in.

if you're performing LIVE. record the footage. chop it up into multiple clips. boom you have enough content to rollout for a month or two.

make liner notes for your album. another easy and free way to have some promo material for it.

ups and downs. ebs and flows. highs and lows.

writing bios. writing press releases. tackling Q&A sessions. doing consultations if you need help with your rollout, retaining and activating your audience. hit me up if you wanna work!

now that some artists are snapping out of the shackles of streaming. it's a perfect time to mention that you should be promoting your Bandcamp OFTEN. not just when Bandcamp Friday is coming up.

thankful for the artists that stick to the deadlines they've set out. and thankful for the ones that communicate honestly when they can't make said deadline.

today is World Suicide Prevention Day.....as someone who almost Thanos'd himself multiple times this year included.....we need YOU here. there is only one YOU, and you're already a legend whether people see it or not.

my only beef with the DC Finest & Marvel Epic Collection lines are that a lot of the comics are old af.

last week @norarahimian.bsky.social and i hopped on YouTube to talk about......how artists can use YouTube. check it out here: www.youtube.com/live/-0XRtCS...

sheesh. another epic day in gaming September 9th is. -the PlayStation 1 (1995) -Crash Bandicoot 1 (1996) -Spyro the Dragon (1998) -the Sega Dreamcast (1999) -Sonic Adventure (1999) -Advance Wars (2001) -Mega Man Zero (2002) -Destiny (2014) -Splatoon 3 (2022) all came out on September 9th.

i love my puppy. he's a passionate ball of energy. but any time i sit down if even to work my puppy will immediately run and sit in my lap. i am thankful for that. especially now and these days.

obsessing over the algorithm will drive you insane. and im seeing too many artists & creatives go crazy trying to understand it.

after Far Sector, im officially reading Garfield and the first four issues of the Sonic IDW run until i can figure out what to read next. Kraven's Last Hunt will officially be a story i read for Halloween along with the usual Batman crap.
