I got to travel to nearby Portland, Oregon recently to visit my future in-laws and enjoyed witnessing the Mountains/Hills on the horizon. Everything was great about that week except for one neighborhood that gave up some bad vibes (evidently it was near a KKK stronghold). Thankfully I had my cup of coffee. with me, and S.F. + (redacted) does not hurt either. The situation in Ukraine did not help my anxiety. Thankfully there is a stalemate and Russia will have to admit to stop the situation to avoid full-blown war with the United States. I’m sure you’ve seen the Battlefield 2042 trailer. In the virtual world that’s fine, but in real-life, nobody wants that. Thanks in advance.

Until Next Time!

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 493 & BENKYO RADIO 493.

As you know, in ‘93, Wu-Tang started. They have a wonderful story. I’ve been watching them on Hulu, and I’m almost done with season 2. While those of you who don’t listen to them think they’re just gangsters, they actually make great music, and “Wu-Tang is for the Children” is truly real. Their music is inspiring, and everybody can relate to the old days when we walked into a music store and look through the Cassettes and CDs, looking for their favorite artists.

All my favorite DJs have told me that while they love that their fans can listen to their music around the world on streaming devices, they only receive a few pennies, if that, per play.

Therefore, I am asking Tim Cook to revolutionize music again. Tell fans that if they buy an album on iTunes, it automatically comes with an NFT that is directly connected to that artist for that particular album.

Same with the bald dude from Spotify. Under each album, still make it free for pro subscribers, but make an option to pay $5 or $10 for an album and receive an NFT. That NFT will be valuable in a few months or in a few years, just like a collector’s item.

I love my favorite musicians and I want to support them.

Just like when I spent thousands of dollars on MP3s on Beatport from 2005-2010.

Let’s revolutionize everything again. Steve Aoki told us he made more money selling one NFT than from streaming sales for like the past 5 years. Something is clearly not correct, and we all need to rectify it. Let’s help our favorite musicians. As always, please visit them performing when they come to your local city.

Until Next Time!

The situation in Ukraine continues to be alarming, but I’m somewhat baffled by the double standard. People have been suffering for about 74 years in Palestine, and nobody gave a shit (because it does not have Oil) meanwhile, within 2-3 weeks in Ukraine, and the entire planet is outpouring support. Please be more vocal about other refugees. The amount of worldwide care for Ukraine so quickly simply because they “look Christian and blue-eyes” makes us look extremely bad in the rest of the world. I mean, we’re doing everything in our power for Ukraine right now, donating billions, while millions of poor Americans, let’s be frank, African-Americans and other minorities don’t have money to put gas in their car, who could use another stimulus check, and have you seen all of this?

I’d like to remind you all, while it’s true, I do have access to a ridiculous super powerful supercomputer, it does not come with a bank account. I’m still doing this blog and my podcasts, but no one has given me a check yet. So please remember my Instagram post about Atlanta TV show with Spider-man: “It’s that time of the night where everybody is waiting for that next Mixtape but no one wants to pay for it, I see how it is.” I’m serious. I have given you my Bitcoin link and Ethereum (iamzaki.eth) URL. Support me. Elon Musk is a Billionaire. I am not. I live paycheck to paycheck. You know how Spider-man is a superhero but can’t even pay his bills? There you go. My username on Robinhood is “iamzaki.” Working for free is slavery. 4 of my podcasts (MU/OMEGA/DISCO/BETA) levels are at #65, and will remain that way until I receive funds or a salary position.

Aren’t you tired of these gas prices? This shit is ridiculous. It’s imperative that OPEC along with ExxonMobile, etc reduces the price at the pump since they have received record profits.

The following post is mostly redacted but I’ll get right to the point. 83 days before Trump was elected president in 2016, I had Bubble Tea at Quickly with __________ in Folsom, CA. In the parking lot, was an unknown driver of a White Ferrari 488 Italia with his lights on, while the two of us were inside having a conversation. In metaphor, he is an Espada. He must be found. He must be arrested. The FBI, including Mueller’s team has a lot of questions for him. I will not rest until he is found and arrested, and for making my life a living nightmare. Yes, that does mean the sheer magnitude of the Trump mafia investigation is even bigger than one has anticipated.

I’d like to point out that if Trump’s actions the other year against Biden’s son Hunter about Ukraine involved Trump preparing Putin for his war the following year, Former President or not, Trump is eligible to get the (electric) chair for this. We uphold the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC.

Until Next Time!
