Radio Athlete or subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts. Morning.
Everybody is DJ Envy, angela Ye, Charlemgne the guy. We
are the breakfast Club. We're in the middle of ASKI.

(00:21):
I should say, this is Asky. Hello. Who's this? Russell?
Raymond read Russell? What's your question for you? I got
a couple of autists here in my city, you know,
just trying to get into the entertainment industry as far
as singing in music. Louisville, Kentucky. Home Alie, all right,
shout out to Louisville, Kentucky. I've been in the corporate world,
you know. I've been doing my little entrepreneurship in the city.
But I was trying to take my entertainment were not

(00:44):
my entertainment by my business background, and try to get
a couple of artists and get into this entertainment industry.
I feel like, you know, I can take my experience
and switch over. So I was trying to see, like,
is that a good look, I should I stay where
I'm math. You know, what's the opportunity. Well, this is
my recommendation. You really believe in your artists and that
they can do big things. Are you willing to invest
time and money into your artists because you can still

(01:05):
have your day job and devote all your extra time
to working on this music business thing. We'll see. I
got a little more than the day job, Like I've
been in corporate like a real estate. I do tactics
like I've been doing a whole more than just a
nine of facts. Okay, so you have so yeah, you know,
I do everything I can to feed the family, but
I feel like I want to switch over and add
to it, you know, along with the A A you,

(01:27):
I got the sports thing going with the kids. So
I just want to kind of put everything in the
one fucking and go full flared into the entertainment, you know,
and try to get some real real money instell us,
you know. But I just want to give you a
couple of pieces of advice. Number One, it's not like
it's gonna pay off immediately. That's a really rare situation
when you can put all your eggs in that one
bucket and that one bucket and it's gonna pay off

(01:49):
right away because that doesn't happen like that. So it
is gonna be a long grind. You're gonna have to
be really patient. There's a lot of variables here. You're
dealing with other people and whether or not they're gonna
work as hard as you work, whether or not you're
gonna get the support that you intend to get, whether
or not you have to invest all your money into them.
You have to be really ready, willing, and able to
do all of those things. I don't recommend giving up

(02:10):
all your other streams of income, but maybe sacrificing certain
things that you're not passionate about and making sure that
you have those streams of income because you're gonna need
that to fund this situation you're trying to do. Is
it a label situation? Is it a production? What are
you trying to do? I mean, the main thing I
want to do is shoulders with the right people. You know, Louisville,
Kentucky is not really a big city. I mean, we

(02:31):
get a couple of concepts tore lightning going on, but
I need to travel and get out in the main stream,
you know, you know the main stream and get to
you know, let people know what I didn't build for myself.
All right, Well, I just want to recommend you keep
those other streams of income, some of them coming into
that you can fund what it is that you need
to do and come up with a plan. You know,
I don't even know if you know for sure exactly
what it is. It can't just be bumping shoulders with

(02:51):
the right people. You have to have a plan of
where you want to be. Also, with these artists, make
sure you have contracts with them. You don't ever want
to put out money and time and effort into pe
Bo and not have them under contract. You have contracts.
I have contracts written, because what I want to do
is they signed. No, they're not signed. I just got them,
all right, So make sure before you start investing all
this time and money that you have some type of contract,

(03:12):
because you would hate to put some time and money
into these artists and you have nothing, you know, for them,
and then they go and sign somewhere else. Right, And
see that's the thing. So like I got an artist
that can sing and wrap, but then I got a
guy that can do beat, and so I'm trying to
put both of them together. But as far as the
details of the contract on, how do I like, so
say I got an artist and he got like twenty
beats right, and I'm trying to get ten of a master, Like,

(03:34):
how can I write the contract to say, if they
gets sold and becomes a hit, how do I get
royalties off there? Like those? Out the details? You have
an entertainment attorney. You have to have an entertainment attorney.
You need a lawyer to drive a real contracts Okay, sir,
it seems like you're starting from the very beginning. So
what I'm gonna do is hold on the line. I'm
gonna give you some information, but it's a lot of work,

(03:56):
and don't just jump into it thinking it's gonna just
happen like that. You really have just sent and playing
things out. I know we see stories of the time
we think success happened overnight. Never happens like that. Yeah,
I know it's not overnight. You know I've been I've
been going thirty five. I didn't about my first half
to two. I've been invested for teen and twelve years.
I'm just ready. I feel like it's thirty five. I
need to put another ten or fifteen into myself and

(04:17):
studying too. You know, maybe like a corporate bill, not
just doing this. You know, everything's letic. You know, I
ain't talking about doing nothing. Legal polists can't come take
nothing now. And I love that rest. So hold on
the line. I love that you're passionate about something. I'm
just trying to give you some advice so that you
don't waste time, you don't waste money, and that you
don't get disappointed and things don't happen the way that

(04:37):
you anticipate them to happen. Hold on the line. Okay,
we in the middle of ask ye, Hello, who's this? Hi?
Can I see anonymous? Okay, an imous? What's your question
for you? So? I haven't been with my X for
three years and last week I was home. It was
late at night, and all of a sudden, I hear
them banging on the door, and I let it go.
I was watching a Lifetime movie and then I feel

(04:58):
I feel you on that life Time movies. Then I
heard the door open. I still thought it was the
Lifetime movie because my dogs weren't moved back then, I
keep hearing it and I didn't know what to do.
So I lived with my mom. We both were scared.
We had no clue what to do, and then I
went to the door and end up being him, who's him?
I don't know your X from three years ago? Yeah, okay,

(05:19):
just banging on the door. Not belligerent, but just I
had a character and I ended up letting him in.
But I'm not really sure what to do at this point,
because you know, my mom's scared. I'm scared he dinna
come back, and we don't really know what to do.
So you went to your ex boyfriend of three from
three years ago back and he was acting erratically when

(05:41):
he came banging on your door on announce in the
middle of the night, right, But you do I don't
want him back. I want so do, But like, what
if he comes back? Do you feel like you're in danger?
You feel like you're in danger. Yeah, the way he
came at my in my house, then I think you
need to go to the police department and father restraining er.
Even if I was him in though, I mean, you
did let him in, but your scurity is gonna come back, right,

(06:01):
and you don't want him to and you're frightened for
what could potentially happen. You have to take those things
very seriously. If you have some type of intuition that's
telling you this could be a dangerous situation, don't risk that.
Make sure you go to the police department, follow police report.
That way to be monitoring your house, and he'll get
served with those papers and he'll know, he'll get arrested
and go to jail if he tries to bother you again.
He has to know that you're serious and you mean business. Okay,

(06:24):
I thought since I left him, and like they want,
oh my god, no, no, no, you are absolutely you
did nothing wrong. Don't feel like you did anything wrong.
Don't let him in again. But you were caught off
guard and you did something that now thinking back, you're like,
I shouldn't have done that, and you're not going to
do it again. And in order to make sure that
you want to protect yourself and protect your mom and
protect your house, go file that police report so that

(06:45):
he knows that you're serious. So he knows I don't
want you coming here again. It's not funny games. You'll
go to jail. And I mean I tried, I tried
to understand why he was there, and he just wanted
to tell me and like that makes me even more serious,
like you can't even let me know, like you showed up.
And it's not even about like you know, wanting to
be together or not. It's just like you don't show
up at somebody's house like that after three years, and

(07:07):
how we broke up was terrible, so it wasn't like
he was welcome back to my house. Listen, honey, go
with your intuition. I had to file a restraining order
against somebody before. It's not a fun thing to do
at all, it's not it, but it is a very
simple process. You just file the paperwork. They have to
show up in court and the judge will decide whether
or not he's gonna keep that restraining order or whether

(07:28):
to get thrown out. If he doesn't show up, you
will have a restraining order. If he does and he's
still acting erratically and you feel like you're in any
sort of danger, you will have a restraining order and
he's not supposed to come there anymore. And if he does,
you call it the police and he knows he's going
to jail. Right, it sounds good, but protect yourself. Take
it seriously and listen to your intuition. I promise you.
I'm I'm listening to it because he also knows like
where our part for for work and things like that.

(07:50):
So I'm just like, you just never know. After three years,
if you pop up, you never know what you can
pop up again. Alright, alright, well listen, be safe first
and foremost. Be safe. If you know something that's not right,
then it's not right. All right, Ma'm good luck. Be
very careful
