It's the mat work. What's up everybody once again is brand man and I have another link up today. I'm linking up with Danny Asadi.  I say that right right that is instrumentalist or artist.  Let's be an artist. Artist a full blown artist and this guy has one of the best brands I've seen in as far as just producers who are doing their thing the way he conceptualized everything as a whole. We'll get into that. I want to see how much is intentional and how much is just organic and you don't even know what's happening. But yo Danny what's up man. I'm so glad to have you. I appreciate you having all. Dude like I'm honored to be interviewed by you.  So thank you. Appreciate it man. Appreciate it. Let's start here because I want to get right into the hustle of things. Before you know thing we hopped on we were talking about the hustle of getting to where you are now which I wanted to go to Vanity for people who need Vanity to know that people are worth listening to. You got 270k on Instagram right now. You're verified. You get a lot of views. You know important people follow you all that good stuff right. But like before and to get to this period you had to hustle right. And you talked about like you were just in a mode right. You were zoned out not necessarily appreciating things from a standpoint of happiness. So before we even get into any philosophy what did that what did that mindset that DNA really look like to get you where you were. I know you might not say it was necessary but you know I think it's necessary. It was necessary. Who were you in those moments. Yeah like who are you. Okay well yeah so I go by artist's name Asadi and I Danny Asadi is my full name. Daniel Asadi is my full name. People call me Danny. I grew up in Columbus Ohio. I was born in Dallas, Texas but I was like there for a month. But most of my life I was in Columbus. When I was probably I mean ever since I was like a little kid I love music. I really got into it the older and older I got. I was in a band you know then I started getting into producing music in high school and I was obsessed with it. Well no one around me did music production.  People barely played the guitar around me to begin with. I was raised in a very privileged like suburban white community. Everyone wanted to be like a doctor or this or that and so I was really hungry and kind of I think that's when I started developing this kind of attitude where I just really wanted it. And I took it very very seriously and that hunger just kept growing. And when I was like 19 I went to Full Sail University in Orlando. I started taking it even more seriously there and being about our production.  And while I'm at school you know I'm meeting all these professors and alumni's I would visit and they got Grammys they put this and that artists and all that stuff you know. And I'm just like every time I got some sort of like I don't know like every time I got some sort of like window of like what the industry is like and people actually doing it I was like motherfucker I want that you know. And so I don't know I think it came from when I was I'd say when I grew up in Columbus and everyone around me was telling me like you're not gonna make it. It's luck or you know it's you should take it as a hobby go to school for go to medical school go to go to school for like being an engineer or something like that you know. And it was I was really like no I don't want to do that screw this this is depressing I want to make music this is my passion. And I just didn't want any excuse to get in the way. I wanted to know everything it takes to make it in the industry. I never did drugs or alcohol because everyone was telling me how people didn't make it or whatever because they became drug addicts stuff. I didn't I immediately like found a mentor because I heard from someone like y'all you need to get a man anything I heard that felt right in my gut I was like I need that I need to do it I need to do it I need to do it and one of those things was you know making a lot making being consistent right like how you always talk about it making songs releasing songs consistently making content releasing content consistently I was trying to figure it out at first and I only did like a video a month and that did great for me because back then the algorithm was just like you make one video it could get like 300,000 views and you've never made a video before you know um yeah rest in peace Facebook but um so I I was doing that once a month I would make like six videos and I like worked so hard to make these six videos release one once a month and that's kind of how I started like really understanding wow this shit's working all I gotta do is make these videos make this music and do it consistently um and I guess long story short that's pretty much what I've been uh dedicating my passion towards for the past like three years and um I think looking back I like the positive um the positive things that the things that I accomplished were definitely like yo you work hard you hustled you were consistent good for you now look at you you got 270,000 followers on Instagram you got all these plays on Spotify you got all these uh plays on these videos and the other side of me is like man you could have been a lot more positive about this shit you know um well you know I I was I don't know about you but or anyone watching who's a musician or producer when you get advice from you know people who've done it and they're on YouTube or you know uh doing lectures or alumni's from uh from your college telling you giving you life advice it's all about being diligent working hard you know that kind of stuff but I never learned about like you gotta be you gotta enjoy it you know you gotta enjoy it you gotta have fun you gotta you know go out a little bit and um be fucking be social and uh but also I'm more specifically about the process like enjoy it you know don't make something because oh this is what I need to do to be famous you know make something because you like it even if no one is gonna like it and I realized looking back the ones that I just love I just wanted to make the songs that I just wanted to make the videos I just felt like making those are the ones that made me um that was a big like w for me not the ones that were like forced you know I forget sometimes you know there's a human element to being a content creator on the internet you know how many videos have you at your peak of like I'm on it I'm on it I'm on it I need to do this yeah yeah what do you make it a day well I'd say because the the way my videos are set up is I have to do them in chunks and I have to really plan them because I don't just sit here and just do this in front of my you know computer all day like I have to go to a nice location make sure it has a good theme make sure the song is well prepared all that kind of stuff and you know that takes a lot of planning and time and I also like to incorporate a lot of collaborations which we can get to later so I'd say I mean it's more about like I do a chunk of videos like 30 videos 30 to 40 videos for the next like I don't know fall season or winter season what are you doing that's interesting I never thought of someone doing it in terms of music that's pretty cool and that explains a little bit about again that aesthetic like all right I'm not gonna play for the volume sake but yeah I mean you have these cool as environments that's what I mean as far as being one of the best branded people I've seen man there's always exactly what you said right exactly what you said you do it comes across like there's always these cool locations this cool aesthetic that's part of why I'd like I didn't even think you lived in the country man like I was like where like what beautiful place like what place has all these beautiful places you know what I mean like there's no place that I know yeah so uh that's that's right there Santa Clarita California right above LA the if you look at the one on the top left with D sharp on the violin that's uh that's in his patio um I you know because when you do like a frame if you really think about it um you just gotta find something that has a lot of color and looks good but it's just in that frame you don't need to worry about like the video uh with um with the violinist there's there was like construction and shit happening in the background really and it was yeah there was just a bunch of stuff around him that we didn't have in the shop you know that kind of stuff um I think you just gotta have a I'd say you gotta you gotta really I for the longest time I cared about um like the aesthetic of my videos like just make sure they're not like they're clear they're nice they look good you know they're like I like my videos to be a little bit like eye candy you know they are man they really I mean they really are the different sets setups man one of my favorites I think the the first one that I like just watch watch was like yo I probably watched it 50 times it was actually this one right here oh look to kill it yeah I think they were my this was my first time seeing them which you made me become a fan of them I went and looked them up and everything and saw that they were on Ellen the scene was dope you were dope I was like this is crazy so I mean that so thank you man the way I mean I think if I gotta give any life advice to anyone trying to make it is and I mean I what am I to say because I haven't I don't think I like actually made it yet um I still consider myself as an up-and-coming artist but you know like what make sure you have an like practice um having an eye for things you know like on the spot like really think your best on making sure that the that it looks good or you know it sounds good and all that kind of stuff yeah it's like a practice it's like you know it's like working out like you gotta if you don't uh perfect practice makes things perfect you just gotta practice like having a good design um element you know that kind of thing definitely get it man even though it takes a short amount of time I'm in a longer about a time at the beginning over time when you build that catalog and you just get better at it so you do it faster you get the result of a page like yours right and it's not all about the instagram page but you get the result of a career where whether it's your instagram page or your your music videos or whatever you do it has that right like anything that you touch now has a sense of that energy so I definitely agree with it and I think you're a walking um testimonial of it and you said you haven't made it yet in your mind what level like what it what does making it look like to you have you had a specific goal in mind or is it just but nah I don't even want to imply any answers I wouldn't let you talk yeah is it a specific goal in mind how does that work for you I want to be so freaking successful and famous that if I walk I can't even walk into a grocery store that's what I want to be I want to be like I want to yeah I want to be like just top top of the food chain I want to just call the shots I just want to sit in my chair and be like I call the shots now you know yeah I mean shoot for the stars and I think that I mean you've got to be happy wherever you are you know wherever you are career wise you always got to be grateful you're just in a balance still wanting more right like being grateful but also a little bit cocky okay so what do you think based off your analysis in somebody who's already walked a certain you know amount of road how what does the road ahead look like right you made the progress you made but to get to that level in your mind what does what is it what have you studied in terms of what you need to do to become one of those people I mean at the end of the day I have no fucking idea but I just gotta give it a try act like I know and I think what I what I'm acting like I know now is collaboration but this time instead of focusing so much on collaborating on doing Instagram videos I'm focusing more on actually actual songs because as great as my Instagram is I cared way too much about it looking back I think I cared cared about it more than I cared about my Spotify actual music I know kids that have like 2,000 followers on Instagram but you know they're making way more Spotify streams than me way more and that really made me realize like dude you gotta have a balance not don't throw all your energy on one platform just because it's the poppin one look and look now TikTok's gonna blow up and Instagram is gonna be like Facebook and all that hard work I put into 270,000 followers is gonna go down the drain unless if I get started on TikTok which I did that's what I want to do I want to balance with with all the networks so that's one thing I want to do the collaboration aspect is that way I can get other people's spot of my followers to check out my content but that's like my business brain my artist brain is also like I really want to collaborate I've been working on music like on my own for the longest time and it's just super fun to collaborate with other people so that's what I that's my like main thing right now so collaborating on active music yeah and I think I want I want to secure that um collaboration hustles reaching the politics of it you know like reaching out to other people making music and all the way to the end product and doing that for and never giving up on that like I never gave up on my content creation you know it's interesting that you say that it is a muscle because what I think it translates everything that you're knowing translates which if I had to bet on you I would say you would be successful moving forward because creating the eye having the the perfection towards the content that you were creating on instagram that's going to help all right help not guarantee but help you on tiktok but that's also going to help you and your other artwork and however you catalog things but then also the collaboration yep once you know how to collaborate with people social media the rest of business is is collaboration collaborating on music collaborating in partnerships which is a harder part of of the game right just the actual basis of things and understanding yeah navigate your own ego and other people's egos but those the people who do it best in the industry you got to do it I one of my biggest struggles is communication because all I know is music you know the whole like you know from small talk to you know getting a cool deal together establishing relationships and stuff I'm like just getting into that which is really weird I mean I should have really taken that more seriously too I think these past few years I mean I'm not that I'm like it's too late but that's that's one thing I want to learn probably something you know way more than me I think that's really important is to like understand how to um I don't want to say deal with because you have an ego you're like I have an ego too but like you know other people's egos you got to have some respect you know think about like one thing I learned is it's always a good idea to think about what the other person wants and try to help them before you tell them what you want like like for a simple example I'd say like if you're in a studio and the first thing the person you're working with is like I want this I want that I think we should do this I think we should do that and that person doesn't have the set time of day to even tell you like ask you uh what do you think we should do what what is your opinion you know yeah and uh yeah just like you know don't be ignorant that was me like I'm always like I know what I want let's do it this way and obviously that's big dick move but you know yeah yeah I mean hey I mean I think in one way we watch so many people do that like so many people that a lot of times people admire seem like hey we just come into Rome and XYZ this is me especially in the entertainment world right in the back end especially when there's these people that are oftentimes even bigger than them because of business and controlling everything you have to be able to navigate and play that ego game and I don't even mean that negatively because even what you said as far as dealing with other people's egos oftentimes causes you to deal with your own ego because the only reason their ego becomes a problem is also the conflict with your own ego right right I managed this and how do I not escalate the process or make something go awry just because I have my own ego issues to deal with so it's an aspect of things but I think acknowledging that you have one is always going to be the first step and then it's not something you should try to get rid of it's just how do I channel it positively productively right it's a tool to be used but most people are like they're victims of their ego you know what I mean versus masters of it right I think two things that I um had for the longest time unfortunately was I was I felt like one the whole world was against me I acted like you know like I acted like everyone was out to get me and um I think it came from it definitely came from like back in 2017 I had a really good agent and he got me like 30 festival gigs and like no one knew me at the time I was like 20k on no 15k on instagram just because of a video and viral um and like 70k on facebook or whatever it didn't really matter but he just liked my music and he was like let's get you some shows and he had a lot of connections and a week later I'm getting like all these offers to play shows for money that I've never I never had this much money before like I was like 19 and um but when I went to these shows some of them a lot of them actually were really um I realized like the show industry even what even the most professional ones even the biggest ones um you know you can't control all the employees there and a lot of them do some like really fucking annoying shit you know and um there's been festivals I've been to where I had to just walk all day following this person just to collect a check to like not collecting like not getting paid um a lot of times there was a lot of times oh my god this was the worst I now I remember this is the worst I show up and they have my tech writer right everything I need to perform it's not much but it's very specific things that I need like I need a drum throne because I sit like I sit on the chair or at least a chair right and um I'm not a DJ I think everyone kept thinking I was a DJ but I'm playing on the pads and the audience needs to see me perform like I worked so hard learning how to play this shit live I'm not about to have that blocked off by a DJ booth you know so my I always sent my tech writer I always sent it they even the buyers even signed it like that we read it you know um and I show up and they're like all right what do you want CDJs and I'm like dude did you read my writer so yeah I go on stage and uh nothing set up and I'm freaking out and I'm like oh my god like I don't have anything you know so that happened a lot um another festival man there was like a really really trashy um like limousine service I think you know and yeah I almost died long story short it was like the guy's car um his brakes failed and I don't know maybe god was watching over me but I was I was like hey can you stop by like a convenience store I just want to like grab some water or something like that see the guy's like yeah I'm going for him he pulls in as he pulled in out from the highway which by the way he was going 80 miles per hour he pulled in to the parking lot and his brakes failed and we were there for like an hour waiting for another ride yeah it was crazy um yeah a lot of shit anyways I'm getting off topic um I think and oh and I never had a manager I I'd like tried out managers so I never had like my guy with me I never had anyone around me so when I went to all these festivals it's all on my own so I felt like I had to like really defend myself so that that was the defensive attitude got you and from that from that when it comes to negotiating deals when it comes to like even getting like opportunities in the first place I wouldn't even think like financially I would think this guy's trying to screw me over you know what I mean or I would think even if I got an opportunity I'd be like okay what what the fuck this is like what is this guy you know uh another another side of me I think was like the ego thing like I really thought I really thought I deserved things like not like instead of like deserving something like you want to say you earn something you work hard to actually get it and if you haven't gone yet then you just got to keep working hard but my attitude was like I'd compare a lot like like I would I would be trying to you know run as fast as I can to jump over this cliff and make it over to the other cliff you know and I keep failing and I keep failing and but I see people who from what I see you know from my point of view like how should hand it to them and are soaring over me to the other side you know what I mean and now that's a wrong mindset obviously because you have first of all man yeah because yeah because first of all you don't know what who they are what they've been through you have no idea and second of all like that's life like you're always going to see people soar over you you're always going to fail your way to success it's always going to seem like when you make it there were hundreds of other people who made it before you but one thing that I never um learned until not too long ago was but when you make it you made it and that's all that matters you know and that immediately just shut off my whole attitude about I deserve this I deserve that I've earned more it's like I'm going to keep working hard and I know I'm going to get it one day whether it's tomorrow or you know two or three years from now and believe it or not I've been getting amazing opportunities I mean I'm like that and I'm the least stressed that I've ever been um and you know I'm just happy because I don't care about that kind of I don't have that attitude anymore you know that that's what I was talking about earlier when we were talking before this interview was like um that's one thing I didn't learn from the the mentors I always learned about how to hustle because you know most people and unfortunately but fortunately because that's competition for me most people don't have the hustle that like you and I have most people don't really have it right you've got all these crazy um awesome like programs and videos and free content on youtube to really learn how to technically hustle how to financially hustle how to have your mind right you know um in the music industry though they don't really talk to you about like how to how to like actually have your mind right you know um and I think like a lot of times you know when you when you see like motivational speakers and stuff you don't really relate that to your music as much as you obviously would with brand man shot right like when you watch brand man shot your mind your your music hat is on uh when you're um when you're watching like you know tony robbins or whatever your your tony robbins has you know you're jumping on your trampoline but uh but I never like I thought I was like combining the two but I never I never really was into like not too long it's difficult the pressure that comes from watching so many other people you know you get that external input and now it's fucking up your own progress the way you think about yourself the way you see the world and it creates that unhappiness it creates that anxiety and even like you said it's perfect knowing who you are now you start to be in conflict with the world everybody's against me something's working against me how come not me how come not me now all right yeah in that process especially when you add an industry that can be as chaotic as music we've been trained um you know from childhood through a very segmented system or a structured system and you do this on the test a b c b plus e f like this is the answer to the test you get 100 I always tell people someone gonna have and then and then you look at your friend and your friend got an a and he was like oh I studied for this test this morning and I was like dude I've been studying for the past week for this test why did I get a fucking c on this and you got an a that's life and even worse than that music unlike school someone you have these answers and have an a you can copy those answers and fail in the real life right right just because you have the same answers and music I just so many other factors is so nuanced so I definitely understand that period and I feel like people who make it through that period are able to come out of it un you know I won't even say I'm scarred because the scars may be a lesson or reminder but unjaded right the older people who could win with both sides the success and the happiness spiritually have you want to look at it now tell me this though you never had a manager right never at all right I never I never have to manager like I've tried out managers every once in a while and it just never worked for me man like I guess maybe my expectations are too high because a lot of the stuff that managers do I already do on my own so I don't really need a manager except for the for the politics for someone who knows a lot of people that I don't know that can be a benefit to me if that person can just simply finesse those connections I mean I'll sign up for the starting team you know but I think a lot of managers that I've tried out like probably three or four managers in the past and first they say they know a lot of people because they know it's important that to the artist that you know they're well connected and but the at the end of the day it's like are you gonna do something about it though are you going to reach out are you gonna you know give me opportunities or at least give me potential opportunities that even if it didn't work out out of your control the fact that you do it makes you a manager to me right but I think a lot of a lot of managers out there they they their job is to like develop an artist and I don't need development necessarily I need opportunity to grow I'll develop myself so that's why I never really had ended up having a manager because a lot of them will just they ended up kind of twiddling their thumbs and not doing what I truly need them to do yeah I mean that you need to bring something to the table whoever you are on the team and yes there are plenty of artists who require certain things but there's some artists most things and doesn't mean you don't need it you can't use a manager but the manager has to has to be a compliment they have to add something it can't just be a generic one size fits all so I get that but what about the fact that I think 2017 you said you had a really good agent who got you on all those shows so do you not have that agent yeah man it sucks that guy was awesome um he left like the music industry like the dude just told me one day he was like man I can't do this anymore I hate my job I hate doing this I'm done I'm going to law school dude went to law school became a construction lawyer but uh I was like man I feel you I understand you know like I I totally totally understood where he came from like he was awesome man I mean he uh kind of referred me to another agent and two things were happening one the agent he referred me to uh I believe out of his knowledge because I don't think he would just pass it along to some inexperienced person but inexperienced she was inexperienced um she just wasn't in the game for a while she didn't know a lot of people and like she was an assistant agent for a long time and just became an agent and you know I just it just wasn't working out you know so we just kind of pardoned ways and then also the second thing was the agency just kind of fell apart you know I don't know the one of the biggest agents in that agency like laughed and took all his artists maybe there was like a fight or something but they just went as uh like as strong as they they used to be you know it's unfortunate but um that was the reason and you know ever since then I was um I've been looking for an agent and I've tried a couple of agents out they didn't really weren't weren't as weren't as great um you know but it's hard now I think I was just lucky honestly I think I was just lucky you know I made a video there was a guy who had a lot of connections um who uh he had a lot of connections and but he loved live electronic artists and he wanted to get me shows and I just think that that was really cool and two things I've learned um politics is so important like being connected being being that guy you know I mean that's so important um but equally as important as important is obviously being a good artist creating good content yeah what do you yeah right um in terms of maybe some failures you've had with politics and then what's maybe a tip now that you would give old self with politics yeah I know you probably don't think of yourself as perfect and that politician type guy still but I'm sure you have better I would say don't like bug people so much you know like I I would I would like try to really pressure people to like work are you working or like what's taking so long are we doing this we're doing that I don't know I think maybe it's because I'm just so like quick with things I don't like to wait around and whatnot I produce my I produce mix and master my own music because I like to wait on people to finish my songs you know that's my attitude so you know or like making videos um I just don't I don't I don't like to wait on people to do videos and stuff and um I like I try to use my tripod as much as possible to feel so I can just do it all myself and put it online um so I think you know don't push people so much I think that's what I would tell myself prior because when you're annoying when someone when someone says you're annoying oh it sucks because they they won't take it seriously anymore you know what I mean yeah yeah and on the other end of that if you're one of those people you're probably also start you'll get moments where you start to feel like people are against you um like people don't like you they're not responding fast enough like maybe it's something bigger than it actually is whereas yeah you freak yourself out yeah you create a narrative and so that that's definitely a gem it sounds so small but people who have actually been through it understand how important that small thing is it for you you know what's funny um I I've lived I've lived in LA for 2017 2018 2019 yeah three years I was in LA for three years um I just didn't like it man I didn't like the city uh all of my connections were happening online so the city wasn't doing anything for me um and like I'm freelance like I don't drive to work like I'm sitting in front of my computer like making beats all day and whatever so I'm at home well it's just doing harm for me that I have to pay way more rents living out here in LA when I could be way less stressed and still be doing what I love to do and still be getting all the opportunities I'm getting through the internet if I lived elsewhere you know so I moved out I moved to Michigan um I might end up in Chicago might end up in New Jersey I don't know I don't know where I'll end up but for now I'm in Michigan and I'm saving money and I feel great because I get to you know just do what I love to do and blah blah blah when I was in LA like I said I wasn't getting any opportunities okay when I was living here the people that I was hitting up that I knew in LA there I said yo I moved to LA let's link up some time you know like whoever the person is a big shot guy um a friend anyone yeah let's do it sometime right well I'm here visiting LA right now for three weeks okay yo I'm here for uh I'm here for three weeks let's link up you want to make music you want to like I can I can actually tell them you want to make music like straight up to their face and they're like oh my god yeah we gotta link up before you leave dude I've been getting the most opportunities these three weeks that I've ever gotten the past fucking three years I was in LA you know such a weird city man but um it makes sense right yeah you create urgency it's like a sales funnel man it's like yeah act or not and then I'm gonna be gone the opportunities go yeah and and in my opinion and I always tell this to everyone it's cheaper to visit LA I mean I guess depending where you're flying from but for the plane ticket cost but it's cheaper to visit LA than to actually live there when you break down the expenses because the cost of rent which is a big chunk of it is so high um but also you know when you live here you gotta have a have to have a car have to or else you're gonna go broke through over um and the car expenses are really expensive like it's trying to 450 a gallon for gas um oil changes are everything's more expensive oil changes are like a hundred bucks um like tires everything everything's expensive insurance is out the way like out to lunch insurance is out to lunch I'm talking car insurance medical insurance um groceries are spent like groceries are just like way more money out here for some reason um and I just thought to myself like dude I could pay way less living out somewhere else and then if I visit and I'm creating urgency I mean that's that's the best and because I know people out here I can I have a place to stay you know that's that's always good um I think if you know people in LA or try to try that's my advice that's my advice all the producers out there if you are or or producers or rappers or anyone in the music industry network with everyone you know in LA if you really want to try to get shit happening in LA network with everyone you know in LA if you live out of state um and then when the time is right hopefully you have a place to stay go there for a week hit up all the people that you uh you know we're networking with create that urgency hey I'm here for a week if you want to link up man if you establish good relationships over the internet I mean hand sound they're gonna be like oh he's in town let's go link up whatever dude one time my friend who's a like a he's a famous rapper I really wanted to make music with him sometime this one week he's like bro I can't my friend my friends in town um and I really want to see her like before she heads back to Toronto this girl's like a she has a successful like fashion uh company and stuff and and she has like a blog and everything like that and when she came to LA she had so much good content she made she was with this guy and you know they had all this good stuff going and and I'm and I'm fucking living here and I'm like man I can't even get a single uh day out of this guy to uh make a song and then a week after the guy went to Europe I'm like you know but that's you know like if I visited um if I visited you in Atlanta or I'm sorry if I visited Atlanta and I told you hey I'm here for a week I'm sure you would try to find time out of your week to be like I want to see if this week I can find time to see Danny like that's the simple thought that you're having in your head you know what I mean yeah it's I mean it's a it's a strategy that doesn't get used or pushed and I think everything you're saying especially when you have money coming in and it's coming in through the internet not the location that you're in stop being married to the don't stop being married to this dream you've been sold that this location will solve the problem for what you're still getting the income and now you can lower the the uh what is it the quality of life or the income needed for a quality of life so now it's less stress you can market yourself more with the extra money or do whatever you want to do for the extra money you invest in business all that stuff so it makes all the sense of the world then you get the benefit of people actually working with you when you act when they can do it so exactly I mean we live in the fucking future now like let's take advantage of it you don't need to live in LA LA is land of LA is the city of opportunity okay and so is Chicago and so is New York and so is Atlanta in Miami and London you know why would you uh live in LA when you can just visit it and you can still get probably six months worth of like scattered meetings into three weeks why wouldn't you do that you know that's what I'm thinking and we got planes we got the internet there's nothing else to worry about you don't need to don't move somewhere unless you really are in love with the city and you want to live there and you can afford it but I see a lot of musicians man they depress this shit out of themselves move out here they think that they're they're going to be a they're considered a failing artist if they move out you know a lot of a lot of people they uh they do judge me believe it or not um when I tell oh I don't live here anymore I live in a small town 12 hours in north of Detroit I think you you know they look at it yeah they're like I'm telling you a lot of people look at me like you know well meanwhile you're struggling and you're judging me living there and I'm good yeah yeah right interesting now I appreciate that I haven't heard anybody really break it down from their personal experience in that particular strategy and that insight that things like people and just take away a lot of pressure that doesn't need to be there like you said you don't need to you know live in the city a certain city you don't for an artist you don't have to blow up and like make your hometown love you first like we're not in that place anymore so if you're so talented if you're so talented why don't you be the what is the what is the phrase something fish uh big fish in the small pond something like that where you really stand out in your small community you know why wouldn't you want to be the diamond in the rock why wouldn't you want to be like have all these dedicated fans from the city who really appreciate you because you represent your hometown l.a. doesn't have that for you 100% l.a. is so corporate now because the the cost of real estate is so high that your local bar if it's not closed down yet doesn't have the time to give some singer a rapper or a unique electronic artist a chance to play his local gigs or open mic nights and stuff they didn't Chicago out here it's it's super like all right uh first of all who the fuck are you you know they laugh at you they laugh at you if you want to go play at their welcome to go like anyone watching i dare you to walk into a bar and be like hey uh what does it take to uh you know just play a play a show out here or whatever oh my god they know what you mean um it's all top 40 dj's that are well connected or bob about their this and that and stuff you know what it sucks sucks i like like i see so many movies and stories and everything about how sunset boulevard all the rock bands when they were just up and coming no one really knew where they were they were playing at these dingy bars and stuff like there's there's not really anything like that anymore uh in l.a. your new place i'm gonna have to somewhere else now yeah that's for sure okay well our tips when it comes to pricing yourself as a producer that you come up um and i kind of learned throughout the years pricing yourself like how much you charge for like music yeah dude i have no idea because all of my all of my music has been like from me just to release on Spotify as me um for the longest time i've always just tried to find a way to split the profits 50 50 with artists um and i don't know if a regular beat maker can bring that to the table um but a lot of my music is really i'm really involved in it more than just the production i also mix to master it but more than just that i have my own following my own fan base and i'm my own artist and i have my own fans so how did you do so you're basically saying yeah i am an artist these people are collaborating with me right so i'm you're releasing you under your name that other artists might collaborate so you're a part of the track it's not like you're just in the background making making beats for random people and then those artists yeah i'm not like sending a i'm not just sending like a you know way file to some rapper to rap on and it's his now i mean he can do that that's fine you know and i can sell it to him if he wants to just do that i'm not i'm not i'm not um i'm definitely open to that like i don't mind that but i feel like a lot of times when people want to make music with me they also want i mean my 270 000 followers to see their work right and if they want that you know then we got to create content and if they want content now now you they got my face on it you know it's kind of like dj call it right when you want to produce with dj call it now i mean i don't know what his rate is or whatever but i mean he's just as important on the track as you are yeah i think that um it's that's that's where the better comes down to you built a real brand right so like if you want to associate with my brand we're doing this 50 50 because now you're your brand and my brand are always what making this song something right but if you're if you just want this to be a song by you and you don't want any promotion from me then you know you can just call it that you know what i mean that's kind of my thing i think what that comes from right because most people are like how do i do this like particularly the do so right how do i do this and it's that thing that you referred to earlier in this talk about yeah i kind of went too hard on my instagram or i was too focused and overly focused but that actually resulted in you building your own brand right you actually have that selective eye of i want to always have these nice environments some people might say i want to always have these trash environments or that really like whatever your brand may be but having a point of view over time is what created your brand versus what video is going to maybe pop it oh they say i need to do behind the scenes and oh i need to do these videos and i need to do pictures it's not that it's communicating an artistic perspective over time and doing a following around that that actually projected the brand that you now have and you're even the benefits of this i just want to applaud you on that thank you man i appreciate it um on a side note that's a good point on a side note i realized there's an audience for everything because what i make i have been making for so long okay and it which is what i call purgeant trap music what i've been making for so long um everyone can now understand oh this is everyone now agrees right agrees that this guy's music is something at least something right but when i first started out everyone didn't really understand it didn't care about it or they passionately like hated it right they thought it was stupid you're ruining purgeant heritage or whatever one thing i've learned was that there's an audience for everything and even though it seems like there's not an audience for it kids don't know what they want you know most people don't know what they want musically they're not like i only you make purgeant stuff okay well you know like i'm from i'm from chicago what the hell is what do i have to do with purgeant music i know bye no people don't talk like that you know people are people are always open to realizing that wow i love this music that's why hip hop became big right i don't think purgeant trap music is going to be a genre like hip hop i don't think it's going to be genre i just consider it my style but i definitely think that i started something that a lot of other people are um not only like becoming in like like a passionate fan but also involved with like people want to do that kind of music they want to make that kind of music and now i started something and i think my best advice is just do what the fuck you want to do don't worry about if there's an audience or not you know so yeah i think that's it's very well said man and i appreciate you sharing your process like that and i mean i think that's yeah it's definitely the perfect closing where should people follow you most man just check out my music that's all i asked i think um you know obviously yeah follow me on spotify if you want to be connected that's where i mostly have my music on um not my music um like my content like to stay in touch but i mean spotify i have music check out my music tell me i hope you like it it's purgeant trap purgeant trap music middle eastern influence but it's hip hop it's electronic um it's cinematic a lot of hype it's kind of my thing don't add a lot of collaborations on the way and a lot of waiting along the way collaborations yeah man looking forward to the process as it unfolds i appreciate you doing this once again man and everybody this is yet another link up would love to get

Welcome to the Everton News Daily. Mason Hullgate is on the South Coast finalising his season-long loan move to Southampton from Everton. Hullgate has not featured at all for Everton this pre-season, certainly not a fifth team level anyway and has been looking to get away throughout the summer, but obviously Sean Dited made it clear that he wasn't going to be part of his first team plans. Hullgate, who has played 149 times for Everton and scored five goals, has been at the football club since signing from Barnsley in 2015 and he is set to finalise that move to Southampton. Staying with Southampton and Everton, both clubs are confident that a deal for Che Adams will be reached over the weekend. The £15 million fee has been bandied about. The 26-year-old has been identified by Everton's recruitment team to help them with their striker issues. He has played 149 games for Southampton and scored 34 goals in all competitions, including three in three championship games this season. Everton put an initial bid in last weekend, some thought that the deal would get done in the early part of the weekend. Maybe Adams would be part of an Everton side taking on Wolves this weekend at the Gouldersen Park. That hasn't happened. Everton had also been speaking to Rudin Aisy about their striker, Beto. Apparently that's still ongoing but the Adams moved this afternoon. The Adams news this afternoon is that this is edge closer. Southampton manager Russell Martin has said that Che Adams will hopefully be available to play for Southampton over the weekend but it depends on where the deal is up to and also his headspace. Southampton have also offered Adams a new contract as well to remain at St Mary's so the ball is very much in his court. Everton again today linked with a move for Leeds United winger, not Wilfred Nontrow, Lewis Sinistera. Sinistera was linked to Everton last week. The deal is thought to be an easier one to complete because Sinistera has a or had a relegation clause in his contract. The 24-year-old played 24 times for Leeds United and has scored seven goals since signing from Feyenoord. And finally PSV and Oven are weighing up another move for Jarrod Branthwaite. We've spoke about this already this week. Branthwaite was at Ibrox to see PSV playing Rangers in the Champions League qualifier. Sean Diter's reluctance to play Branthwaite could see the young defender ask for a move. That is according to some reports today. Everton thought someone around £15 million for the young centre back. A lot of Everton is hoping that Branthwaite would be given his opportunity this season to cement his place alongside James Tarkovsky. That has not happened so far and Everton have shipped five goals in two games. It remains to be seen whether or not Sean Diter makes a change over the weekend and Branthwaite gets the opportunity to stake his claim in the first team. If not, we could see this move intensify over the next seven days as Branthwaite could well look to leave Guddersen Park. Let's hope that isn't the case. That is it for the news today.

What I do particularly appreciate about the SDGs is this, you know, the primacy or the priority that it gives to focusing on gender equality in women's empowerment. And it's done that very much from a rights-based perspective as opposed to an instrumentalist perspective in the sense that gender equality in women's empowerment is something that we as society and the global community needs to be committed towards and that it is a goal in its own right and we shouldn't just be concerned with that because it will lead to other goals. And I think that sends a really powerful message to the way in which forests and forestry issues are being defined. Increasingly what we see is that gender issues are entering the forestry realm but very much so in terms of what gender equality in women's empowerment will bring to forests. You know, questions are still being asked about what is the role of women's contribution towards deforestation, towards sustainable forest management. And while there is momentum for change, but you know, there is definitely not enough emphasis in my view on how forests can contribute towards gender equality in women's empowerment too. So by having a global development agenda that really highlights and prioritizes the importance of gender equality in women's rights on its own terms and not because it will lead to other instrument of benefits, I think it has a lot to add to the way in which we understand and appreciate the value of forests both for people and for the environment.


Thanks for checking out this movie review video. This is for the 2018 film Incident in a Ghostland which was written and directed by Pascal Lagyay For people who don't know who Pascal Lagyay is he did a film called a martyrs Which is a French language film and is very highly revered. It was part of the whole French extreme horror movement in the early 2000s. I believe around theirs It may have been like 2005-ish somewhere in there. I don't remember but martyrs is actually a film that I think I will do a review on at some point I am a fan of that film although it is hard to get through for some people it is a very Brutal film in many ways and there's a reason for that Hence how Lagyay is as a filmmaker and some of that actually translates over into well actually a bunch of that translates over into Incident in a ghost land now for people out there Who have shudder it is currently streaming on shudder. I would recommend seeing this film But do know it is a little tough to handle at times potentially for you know some people I don't know for me. It was I'll just put it this way I needed a palette cleanser afterwards because I watched it at night right before I was gonna go to bed and After I got done. I was like that was brutal that was intense And it was good film and I enjoyed it, but I need a palette cleanser now So I just jumped on to YouTube and watched easy going fun videos So that's the last thing I saw before going to sleep because otherwise I could have ended up with some nightmares I'm just saying but check check out the movie. I do recommend it. It's on shudder streaming currently when I'm doing this review So I am gonna be talking spoilers for this one for a lot of the newer films I will not do spoilers, but for this one I feel like I kind of have to do spoilers to properly talk about it So just know that so go watch it then come back and watch this. All right, so Like I said written and directed by Pascal Lagyay who did martyrs, but he also did the tall man Now when I talk about martyrs be careful that you're not confusing it with the American version of martyrs Which is a remake if you want to see martyrs see the original French language Version because from what I hear they took a lot out of the American version and they took out some very pivotal pivotal stuff So French version. This is a shudder exclusive film. Just so people know it was a Canadian and French co-production Which is interesting The stars in this are Taylor Hickson Amelia Jones Crystal Reed and Anastasia Phillips, and I think they did excellent jobs now Taylor Hickson was in Deadpool. That's like her only other big-ish thing. She played the young Vera Amelia Jones What is actually hasn't been anything big, but she's actually going to be in the I believe it's a Netflix show coming this year called Lock and Key which is based on a comic book that was the story by Joe Hill, which is Stephen King's son Which I love that was a great comic series. It's a great story. I'm very excited for the show So Amelia Jones is going to be in that as Kinsey Lock, which I'm all for it because she did a great job in this Crystal Reed played the grown-up version of Beth Oh Amelia Jones was the the younger version of Beth and then Anastasia Phillips did the grown-up version of Vera Now those four women didn't outstanding job in their acting That's one of the big things about this film is the acting is so good now Yeah, I'll talk about this a little bit The one of the really bad things about this film is that there was an injury on the set And it was an injury to one of the stars and that was Taylor Hickson I'd actually I remember it making the news before the film even came out It was this headline that I saw about injury during the filming and it was bad She had a really large cut on her face Apparently there was a situation where and I could see what part of the film it was in it was towards the end where she was Beth the young Beth was like kind of trapped in her own mind and she was at a at a dinner party and her sister Would like ran through it and then she was behind a glass door and she was like banging on the glass door So apparently during that Pascal Lagi the director told her to like bang even harder And she banged so hard that she went the top half of her went through the glass door and it wasn't safety glass It was just glass so she got a huge cut on the left side of her face and You can look up pictures of it on Google images just put to Taylor Taylor Hickson scar You can see the scar from it and it goes from like her chin area back a bunch She had to have 70 stitches, which is a lot and It's always bad to hear these types of things I know you never want to hear that there were injuries on a set Especially not something that bad and that's career altering for someone like her so because of that reason she Fought a lawsuit she sued for them not taking the proper safety precautions including using safety glass and I Agree with that because if you've seen what her scar looks like that is beyond significant I mean 70 stitches is a lot of stitches and that's a lot to go through and that sort of stuff should not happen You have people on set to take care of that Well, unless you're a super low-budget film like you know I've done some filming before and we didn't have a whole lot of safety measures because We have no budget, you know no budget filming independent. Yeah so That's terrible, but getting on to the actual movie separating it from that stuff So it started in a in a super creepy way with that kind of like as they called a candy truck Just like driving erratically on the road And I feel like that's a really good way to kind of set things up because it's this immediate like Something is not just off, but something is extremely wrong and here comes something terrible Literally this truck is like barreling down on them goes to the side of them acting erratically and you're like This is a harbinger of terrible things to come and it certainly is when you pair that up with what? basically calls out the whole film where they stop at the at the gas station and I believe it's Vera is reading the article. I think it was Vera or maybe it was Beth I can't remember who but one of them was reading an article about how there was this this couple going about Invading homes killing the mother and then keeping the kids there and living there for a while And so basically when that whole conversation goes on it tells you exactly how the film is going to play out it tells you the entire film and But it kind of confuses you a little bit on how things are actually going to turn out because it kind of does that switch and There's a lot of spoilers here.  So she's kind of like aging in her mind and keeping herself locked in a daydream and sent in a sense to be able to mentally deal with her terrible life. So But that that serves to kind of like Confuse you as to what is really going on but the article is what really tells you what happens So it's a it's a kind of cool for foreshadowing The old house in this looks appropriately creepy and cluttered with creepy dolls. I mean This is this is one of those movies that brings a lot of things that people find creepy and scary together and that's dolls old Creaky creepy looking houses and I was in home invasion. That's the other one. I was like I've had it and then I lost it Yeah, and home invasion those three three things are scary enough on their own Put him putting them all together and you get a movie like this, which I would I would say there are plenty of people out There who would say this is a scary movie. I didn't find it scary I would say for me it was more like very tense and intense at times. It's very it's also very primal and brutal and that's just kind of Pascal Lagy's aesthetic how he shoots things He makes things seem less theatrical and more realistic in how they play out and that was very beneficial for how the Intrusion the home intruder portion was filmed because that made it particularly intense like it felt Like real acting it felt like this is what how it may very well be not super stylized in Hollywood Film ish and I think that for that reason it was very effective disturbing and Significantly more disturbing than what that kind of more stylized Hollywood look would be like but it's effective for that reason The doll jump scare did get me there actually a few jump scares in this that actually did get me It's hard for me to be hit with jump scares But I didn't see them coming in this film because it didn't strike me as that type of film And they did it in such a way that it just ended up getting you it was effective So I like it when you can actually pull off a jump scare because they're so overdone that it's hard to actually be effective with them anymore The sibling issues feel pretty realistic at least what's going on in the beginning where you know they have a bunch of problems with each other who hasn't had those types issues with their siblings when they're growing up and It just sometimes in film it can just feel very contrived and like overdone or not done enough But it felt good like the writing on it was nice. It felt real Which helps to kind of set up How how much more important their eventual bonding is over their terrible situation and obviously abuse So the home invasion like I said the home invasion shot very well super intense The amount of fighting back that the mother had in it was Excellent, it was very badass. It was very well done very put together it definitely made you feel like there was a chance that they were gonna make it and You think that's what happened initially because then you transition over to what's just going on inside of Beth's head and you don't know that until much later and Yeah, so you think oh man, they really fought them off So I was thinking wow this is amazing that they would really go to this level with this film because they usually don't do that Like it's always like a bunch of people die. It's not a terrible home invasion happens and then Everyone makes it. It usually doesn't happen that way It's usually at least someone gets killed or you know horribly disfigured or maimed But so I thought it was very bold move, but then you find out in the end It wasn't I mean it was for the moment, but it wasn't actually in the end because it's Not actually what happened It was just all on her head It's yeah already talked about the article Not sure why they would stay in a creepy house I'd put down now I put that no down when I didn't know What was going on? in reality of you know, I mean Beth and Vera Being held captive as each human dolls basically and being crazy abused So when I thought that just what was going on in Beth's head was reality I put down not sure why they would stay in that house with such a terrible trauma tied to it Yeah, that doesn't make sense, but in reality. They obviously didn't have a choice. So I'm usually not good with films that have things just ending up being in the character's head since it's so well trodden ground But this one actually doesn't in a very effective way in a very creative way, and I didn't see it coming It's all about how you set the story up ahead of time You know there are those types of stories where this is the path they choose to go down But they don't lay the story out all that well and you can see it coming and you just get that eye roll Even before the moment happens with this movie. It was definitely not like that I feel like they set it up really well They really tricked you into thinking what was going on in Beth's head was actually what was happening And then when it makes that switch, it just it brings everything down Like you at least that it when you're seeing what was going on in Beth's head You at least had hope for her and you were like oh well She's living a better life, and then you realize nope the mother got killed and both the sisters are living in this pure living hell Being just beaten and it's only a matter of time before they're dead And it's just it looks so bleak like there's absolutely no hope and that You know repeats itself a few times because then there will be like a glimmer of hope and then it's taken away and I mean well done so the scene with Beth as the doll is another one of those scenes that's Extremely intense just like the what I was talking about the actual home invasion part is extremely intense the part with Beth as the doll trying to stay as still as she can not cry not incur more of the wrath of this of this homicidal maniac and Also try and find a way out was just very well done and part of that actually has to go with also the music accompaniment and Just this overall sound design which was phenomenal in this film There were so many components to this film from a technical standpoint that were very very very good The moment when they do actually get out and they get away and they get to the police officers And they're gonna help them and then they both get killed is an unbelievable gut punch at that point I I really like felt like my stomach kind of sank when that happened in the film and that's another thing to kind of talk about I usually don't get as immersed in films that way that I like feel something like that like my stomach Drop or or feel particular intensity with scenes So it's it's a it speaks volumes to the quality of the film and the storytelling that I got that sucked into it so Very good, but yeah, you just literally felt like at that moment when you get that gut punch of those officers getting killed that there's no hope that it's gonna end very very badly at the very end because Pascal loggy. I could go that way. He's that type of filmmaker in my opinion So that's all I kind of have to say about the actual events of the film the directing and cinematography of this was awesome It looked amazing and like I said the music to go with it the sound design to go with it so so good the acting was so so good There's a lot of really good things there the And I wrote actually the acting I think raised up to the level of the story because the story is Relatively strong. It's not the best story, but it was executed in a very good way, and it was relatively unique So I did quite like it the film Films very brutal and violent as can be expected from a loggy a film His stuff is very much feels primal and very very raw And I felt like this film was very much that for people who don't know martyrs was actually unbelievably brutal unbelievably primal and raw and so much so that when I first watched that film I was feeling Not physically but mentally sickened by the amount of violence and brutality in it And I literally said with to the person I was watching it with the first time There better be a point to this because otherwise it's just too gratuitous And I'm very turned off And then there was a point to it and I liked it. So but that's loggy a that's just his his thing So it's not a um movie you just throw on You kind of have to be in the right mood martyrs and incident in a ghost land I will say both of those films. I haven't seen the tall man by him, but I would like to because he's a good filmmaker So going to some more of the themes So this tackles two degree survivors guilt in the mental portion when you're when you're in in Beth's perceived reality that she creates for her in the future There's a lot of survivors guilt that's shown in that Even though they all ended up surviving mentally. They all didn't survive in that realm, you know Um Beth was acting like everything was fine. She had a little bit of trauma, but she was pretty good. Obviously Vera was Living a very hellacious life being assaulted by ghosts In in that scenario and the mom was seemed like she was doing relatively okay but she was an alcoholic at that point and she was chain smoking all the time so You know the least affected was beth and she she was the least affected in the actual invasion physically She wasn't um It's kind of alluded to that maybe Vera was raped at that point Don't know for sure, but she was at least beaten at that point Beth was not and then the mother obviously she went through the most physical stuff because well, she ended up dying But even before we knew that she was actually dead. She went through a lot of physical stuff Vera loses Yeah, I already talked about the ghosts are the lingering trauma and the physical harm Vera suffers are the internal wounds being made visible That's what I wrote down in the part where it's just You know in best heads still For themes so let me read that again because I think it does apply The ghosts at that point are the lingering trauma And the physical harm that Vera suffers are the internal wounds. They're being made external so you can visibly see Her internal struggles So I think it plays like that When things end up switching to reality you see that Vera can't leave her situation Mentally and beth has actually found a way to zone out and mentally escape that situation But obviously that ends up changing because beth when she's kind of like snapped out of it by Vera Is it she feels guilty at some point and she's like look my sister is Present going through this hell this this present reality of awful And I feel like in order to be there for her in a sense We should go through this together and she then makes the decision to abandon her mental Her mental utopia in a sense which is a a A moment of speaking to the bond of sisterhood where you see it It's not very strong in the beginning the trauma and the invasion and the horrible stuff They go through makes them unbelievably strong in the end and you see that Wrapped up when they're both being kind of taken out on the gurneys by e m e m s And they're looking at each other and saying I love you So that's kind of like the full circle of it the 180 180 degree change in their relationship um In the end beth chooses to be present in hell And so she's not abandoning her sister. That's just kind of another way of putting it So that's kind of all I had to think about it But at the time and then I thought about it a little bit more right after the movie and I was like You know knowing Pascal Laugier and knowing what he said about his film martyrs This one felt inspired and and personal Just like martyrs was and when I had read an article about when martyrs was about Laugier had said that it was a a a visual representation of Depression that he went through just awful deep horrible depression And he wanted to put out on a film in a visual medium What he felt like having terrible depression And so that made sense And so I thought a bit more about that after watching incident in a ghost land and I thought I bet there's something deeper to this and if there is what would that be so This is just me spitballing I wrote knowing Laugier I wouldn't be surprised if this whole film is a metaphor for the idealization of screenwriting and filmmaking And the abusive and hellacious reality of it i.e. the intruders being the studio barging in And assaulting your story and changing it So just uh, you know just a theory I can see it from my standpoint You may be sitting there right now going I don't I don't know if I really see that but where I'm going with that is There there's a Big emphasis put on Beth and stories and being a storyteller and writing and her inspiration being hp. Lovecraft Which a lot of people who write horror stuff. That's what it's all about Um is going back to like one Main author that's their driving force So they obviously show that in this and then the amount of focus that they put on the typewriter At the very end of it. I thought was a symbolic thing So that kind of got me thinking there's got to be something else because you wouldn't just do that for no reason It's in the film for a very particular reason.  They say this is a great idea And then they just mess it all up and they're like we love this But we're going to change this now that we purchased it from you We're going to change this and we're going to gut this and we're going to add this And they totally change it and it's held for you as a filmmaker And also just the whole process of going through directing a film from what I've heard The studio tries to put their hands on things so many times Direct where you need to do things or not do things and it just becomes Terrible rob zombie talks about it a lot in interviews about how much he hates hollywood And how he would just love to do a bunch of independent stuff Georgie ramiro kind of talked about that stuff towards the end of his life as well It's a well-known thing the other thing is I I know for a fact that A lot of the french extreme horror filmmakers from the 2000s early 2000s They had a really bad time with american hollywood They Got known for their french extreme films and then hollywood tried to bring them in And they got there and they got Pretty disrespected and abused and thrown around. I mean uh one coming to mind xavier yens Who had done the movie frontiers, which is a good film when and he he did the um hitman movie And he shot it as an r rating then the studio jumped in and said No, it's gotta be a pg-13 and he said I didn't make a pg-13 film It is an r film and they're like, okay Well, if you won't do it, then we'll pay someone else to come in and cut it down to a pg-13 And that's when he walked away. He disavowed the movie. He said this is not my film So xavier yens did that film, but he asked to have his name taken off of it I don't know if it's still attributed to him or not The maury um maury and bestio. I think the guys who did the film inside In france they came over and they got kicked around a lot. I know they were attached to the hellraiser remake at one point And they were trying to get things going with that and the studio got way too involved and then they got kicked off So they got jerked around with that It's just the whole thing. So I wouldn't be surprised if log ye had a lot of that going on as well So sorry for the kind of going a little too far, but hopefully some people found that interesting But anyway, that's it for this review. I do have to give a star rating on Incident in a ghost land so out of five stars with a half star in play Um, it's not the best film, but it is quite good.  Definitely recommend it to people.
