[0:00 - 0:16] (snaps)
[0:16 - 0:18] Good morning, everyone.
[0:18 - 0:24] (snaps)
[0:24 - 0:26] Good morning, everybody.
[0:26 - 0:28] Um...
[0:28 - 0:32] I'm just making this short video
[0:32 - 0:36] to let everybody know
[0:36 - 0:40] that from here on out
[0:40 - 0:46] I will not be doing any more free handout freebies.
[0:46 - 0:50] When it comes to my music, I will not be doing any more
[0:50 - 0:54] free handouts or anything.
[0:54 - 0:58] And I will not be doing free commissions
[0:58 - 1:02] for artwork, music, whatever.
[1:02 - 1:10] The only people I will be
[1:10 - 1:14] sharing my stuff with are people that I absolutely
[1:14 - 1:18] 110% know
[1:18 - 1:22] will not say a damn thing.
[1:22 - 1:26] People like my good friend Chris Friend,
[1:26 - 1:28] aka Nightlife.
[1:28 - 1:32] People like him, I can trust.
[1:32 - 1:40] People like my brother Jake, I can trust.
[1:40 - 1:46] And I know this might disappoint some of you, but I have to
[1:46 - 1:50] start thinking about myself
[1:50 - 1:52] and my future.
[1:52 - 1:56] Because I found out the other day that for the last two to
[1:56 - 2:00] three years, I've been having money stolen away from me
[2:00 - 2:04] and I've been being taken advantage of
[2:04 - 2:08] and I'm honestly sick of it.
[2:08 - 2:18] I come to find out the other day that I've been losing thousands of dollars
[2:18 - 2:22] because of the YouTuber known as MusicBizMarty.
[2:22 - 2:30] And I'm sick of being stolen from, I'm sick of being ripped off from.
[2:30 - 2:38] For the past two years I've been being taken advantage of
[2:38 - 2:42] and have been losing out on thousands of dollars that I could have been using
[2:42 - 2:46] to not only boost my career in music,
[2:46 - 2:50] but to help my family and help friends
[2:50 - 2:54] that could use the money.
[2:54 - 3:02] And it's not that I don't appreciate the fans or the people that listen to my stuff.
[3:02 - 3:06] That's not it.
[3:06 - 3:10] Because I do appreciate you guys.
[3:10 - 3:14] I do appreciate y'all that enjoying my artwork.
[3:14 - 3:20] But from now on, I will now be doing free handouts.
[3:20 - 3:24] If you guys would like me to commission
[3:24 - 3:28] some cartoon work for you guys
[3:28 - 3:32] to where I take your image and I turn you into a cartoon character,
[3:32 - 3:40] if you would like that, message me and we can work out a deal.
[3:40 - 3:44] But when it comes to my music,
[3:44 - 3:48] the same as my art commissions, no more handouts.
[3:48 - 3:52] No more freebies.
[3:52 - 3:56] Because every time I do, I wind up getting fucked over.
[3:56 - 4:02] Because people like Marty come in and they steal my money.
[4:02 - 4:08] And I'm sick of being taken advantage of.
[4:08 - 4:12] It's not that I don't appreciate you guys,
[4:12 - 4:16] but I need to start thinking like
[4:16 - 4:20] I should have been thinking the entire time as a business.
[4:20 - 4:24] I am my own brain. I am my own business.
[4:24 - 4:32] And if I'm going to make a living doing art commissions
[4:32 - 4:36] and doing music, then I need to start thinking that way.
[4:36 - 4:40] I need to start putting my mindset back in a business state of mind.
[4:40 - 4:52] So I'm sorry to say, but from here on out, no more freebies.
[4:52 - 4:56] If you want a beat from me, you're going to have to buy it.
[4:56 - 5:02] If you want any of my albums, you're going to have to purchase.
[5:02 - 5:06] If you want an art commission, you're going to have to buy it.
[5:06 - 5:10] No handouts, no IOUs, no hey can you
[5:10 - 5:14] you know do this for me now and I'll pay you later on, no.
[5:14 - 5:26] I am tired of being taken advantage of.
[5:26 - 5:28] Plain and simple.
[5:28 - 5:32] For the last two years I've been being ripped off and stolen from
[5:32 - 5:36] and taken advantage of and I'm sick of it.
[5:36 - 5:40] No more handouts. Period.
[5:40 - 5:44] I need to look out for my family and myself and my people.
[5:44 - 5:48] And the best way for me to do that is to cut off the free shit.
[5:54 - 5:58] Like I said, I do appreciate you guys.
[5:58 - 6:02] For all y'all that do support me, I do genuinely appreciate you guys.
[6:02 - 6:06] Don't think that I don't. Because I do.
[6:06 - 6:10] But I need to start thinking about myself and my future.
[6:10 - 6:16] So as of today, starting from
[6:16 - 6:20] after this stream on, no more handouts.
[6:20 - 6:32] No more freebies.
