Welcome to the circle, wipe your eyes, don't trip.
This the place where we heal from the lies we gripped.
We all held strong while the chart did flips.
We all held strong while the chart did flips.
We all held strong while the chart did flips.
We all held strong while the chart did flips.
We all held strong while the chart did flips.
We all held strong while the chart did flips. We all held strong while the chart did flips. Yo. wallet that wheezes when i check my l's we all got wrecked by a vibe too loud by a thread from
a dude with a jpeg crowd up big one week then reverse our gains now we sit in a chat room
sharing our pain i watched the candle climb didn't take a cent then it hit my entry and i called it
met the grand fam said this one's rare but the chart just looped like musical chair i am phantom
i held too long now my bags got dust and my faith feels gone.
Used to mock paper, hands with pride. Now I got six coins I can't describe.
I was up like crazy, didn't tap that win. Now I meditate daily on what could have been.
I got gas fees tatted on my mental state and I DC ate into my own mistake.
The KOL said, Joe, this plays a a heater now i follow his tweets like a broken
believer no exit plan just vibes and now i study my entries like broken art it's a shame really i
love that coin it had soul and vibes and a celebrity join but i sold on about set of three
percent cut now i'm talking in spaces like we all stuck hello mr phantom where we flying today we
got a few trips left in this cycle play.
Would you like a bag with invisible gains?
A refundable charge with emotional pain?
Here's a project from a hype team with dreams where the founders are modding.
It's got tokenomics and a bridge that's fake.
But the logo's hard and the vibes feel great.
You can sit by the window of exit denial.
You roundtrip, you got flyer miles told
me book one way fell asleep on the ride woke up right back in that sideways slide here's your
passport expired again and a lanyard that says i believe back then captains of youtuber drunk on
calls your snacks are regretting protocol stalls there's a parachute under the seat for hope but
it's packed with charts from the weekly slope.
Welcome aboard where the hype runs thick and the profits vanish before you can click.
What's up, everybody? What's up, everybody? Go like and go retweet the room right now.
Go like and go retweet the room right now. We're going to play a couple more songs.
We're going to get a couple more of these, a couple of these spaces DM'd in other places. All right,'s do this, you guys. We're running spaces all day.
Here we go, you guys. I'm gonna get another one.
What up, Phantom? How you doing?
This is another one here, Generational Bottom.
Everybody, just rock and roll. Let's get some of these songs playing.
Here we go.
Let's get it going. Let's get it going. Let's get it going.
I'm gonna play another one, like I said.
I'm gonna refresh the page.
Refresh the page, and then I'm gonna fucking play this really one second here we go here we go i'm gonna refresh the page you guys go do me a favor like retweet
the room and go tag three people right now let them know you're here chilling here we go here
we go generational bottom Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I.
I. I. I. I. I. Call it pre-sale floor, I stay timed in the curves, let the yields restore. It's a bullish formation with soft resistance.
I read hips like charts, my convictions instant.
No red flags, just a green light candle.
High time frame play with the right to handle.
I don't chase pumps, I rotate precision.
I DCA cheeks with chart technician wisdom.
I spot volume spikes from the denim distortion.
You ape and thirst, I scale with proportion.
I see trend lines curve when she step on beat
Her back broke Twitter, had the threat on repeat
I whisper, you look like a low I could build from
She said, boy, stop
I said, that's yield, hon
This ain't lust, it's a value unlock
It's a macro reversal with a deep supply shock
Dick, 808s I'm shocked. Thick. Thick. Eight awaits. She got legs like liquidity, thick and deep.
Walk by, feels like an altcoin pick.
I don't accept. I construct a trade with logic, that's a generational bottom, I stay honest
Hasha like support when it double bounce, got influencers shook in the common countants
That ain't a pick, that's an ecosystem picture, I'm up 5x off the wrist flick physics
She the reasons the bulls break pattern and fold, you sold too high, I just held the road
I said stop lost, that emotional detachment.
Let her break neckline with natural attraction.
This ain't lust, it's market appreciation.
That's a rare curve back by desigualization.
Booty like that, you don't fade in front of it.
You frame the moment and say generational bottom.
Hate away. I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it, man.
How you doing, Phantom of the Swapper?

it's important in this space for people to be consistent.
All day, man. Earlier, the spaces earlier were popping, man.
We had over 140 people pop in there, man. So they were really, really good this morning. We had another space for the music space that I always do Tuesday, Thursday. We bump your music. We bump I Am Thanos' music and everybody. It's 9 a.m. Pacific Standard Time is when we do it. Yeah, man. So those rooms also, you know, you get a lot of exposure in those rooms because like I said, hundreds of people come by there. And like I said, you know, it's always a fun time right now. I'm going to tag people around and let them know that we're
doing this also so they can get the spotlight on you and let them know, man. But yeah,
hopefully everything's going good where you're at, man. Are you on the East Coast, West Coast,
Central, where you're at right now? South side, bro. I'm in the South. I'm in Houston, Texas.
So I'm deep in the south here.
Awesome, man.
That's what I mean, bro.
You're in the south, my friend. So, yeah.

But we're going to actually have a good time, man.
Let's go ahead and play this other song right here
so I can get this shit out in a couple more rooms, man.
And we'll let them know.
Phantom of the Swappera, this is actually your self-titled song.
Is this a self-titled?
It's like Phantom of the Swappera's Phantom of the Swappera, right?
Yeah, it was pretty much just like, you know, my introductory song.
I put it as one of the last songs on that EP. Yeah, it was pretty much just my introductory song.
I put it as one of the last songs on that EP.
I love it, man.
It's actually a dope song.
Phantom, put anything you want on the Jumbotron right now so that, like I said, we can get this algorithm.
I'm going to start putting a bunch of songs on.
What happens is I have to play this off of my Phantom wallet
so I can't put in my other profile, which is the cyberspaces profile.
So I'll play one more song, and then I'll put in my cyberspaces profile so that I can go ahead and get that algorithm also.
Because, like I said, I have both of those that I use.
And it helps the algorithm both left and right, man.
But, yeah, my friend, I'm excited.
I'm excited, my friend.
So we'll play another song so I can get it on because, like I said, I've got to go to the phantom wallet.
Sound good?
I'm going to tag it out, too.
Tag him around.
Let's do it, my friend.
Here we go.
This is a self-titled album, Phantom of the Swap, bro.
Here we go.
Before I do it, I haven't been able to retweet it off of my regular account,
so let me do that really fast.
Like I said, I try to get the show started,
and I'm going to get this retweeted from the spaces on X so that people see it off of my regular account. So let me do that really fast. Like I said, I try to get the show started and I'm going to get this retweeted from the spaces on X so that people see it off of my
regular one. And then I'll get some more comments in there. I'll put a bunch of comments and we'll
start getting this room popping, man. You'll see it's going to start to get popping. And that's
what we'll play these songs. Let people start rolling in and then we'll rock and roll, my
friend. Here we go. Phantom of the Swap, Phantom of the Swap, bro. I'm so excited. Life's a bitch and then you buy crypto Till I found out slow gains hit like a sick joke Used to want dead presidents, now I want presents
Used to chase wealth, describe my questions
I've been on stoops with a J in my brain
And a plan that changed with a typo
I've been in rooms where the truth got trimmed
Like fate got cleaned for the tightro
Used to run from pain like yo rewind that
Like the past got bars I could
time stamp. Like a line from Hove could reverse regret. But the beat don't bend for a mindset.
Used to sleep on floors with a note on the mirror that said wake up on your name. Used to think the
world is yours meant flex. Now I think it means hold your flame. Still got shame in the folds of
my chest. Still got quotes that I stole from stress.
Still got pride that I cold like death.
Still say one day just to slow regress.
I was in too deep when the charts turned red.
Used to lie to myself like the lost made sense.
Used to talk real smart, but the heart got dense.
Used to bet on vibes while I claimed its trends.
I remember the man in the gas station booth
Booking his hand like the math had proof
Thought he was mapped in a warm buffet genius
But a year passed by, turns out he was dreaming
Just a game log stacked like prophetic text
I respected the hustle, but I learned from the wreck
Cause I seen myself in the way he guessed
And I knew deep down I was chasing the next
I've been father and son, and a ghost in between.
Been the break in the verse that you skip for the screen.
Been the pressure that rhymes when the rhythm can't breathe.
Been the lesson that hits when the wind feels clean.
Buried my dad on my boy's first cake.
Two dates carved in the same damn weight.
I ain't cryin' the moment, I just stared at the gate.
Tryin' to figure which life I was meant to create.
I've been humble, been loud, been deep, been reckless.
Been pock talking pain in the face of a death wish.
Been a thought that survived what the past tried to edit.
Been a bar in the dark that the light don't question.
I'm a phantom, voice of a glitch that hit.
I'm the loop in your chest when the wrist don't quit.
I'm the song that a legend ain't right, but should've.
Cause it lives in the mind
Of a man that could've
Yeah That's what I'm talking about, man.
I love them smooth sound. Awesome, man. Phantom of Swapper, man. This is really good music, man. And like I

other profile spaces on X over here. Thank you guys very much, man. It's been a blast right now and uh yeah phantom this is great music my friend
yeah i appreciate it so it's nice to i still listen to it myself every now and then you know
pass over these these tracks in my phantom wallet you know and uh they're you know they're uh
they're contagious to me as well. You know,
I mean, I capture myself jamming them out and then listening to the verses and knowing the
verses all the time. Cause I play them, like I said, all the spaces that I do.
And that's when I vibe to them, you know what I mean? So in the morning, when I get my,
my morning on, get my C4, keep it going. That's when I, that's when I bump it. And then I'm

Let's get the first question going. I like to get these songs going so that we can get the vibe
going. And like I said, we're going on about 15 minutes since the actual show started. I had to
get a couple of things around and get these messages going around. So let's go ahead and
do this, Phantom of the Swap. Tell me about yourself, man, and what got you into crypto and how you
started getting into music, my friend. Yeah, man. Like I said, I'm from Houston. I'm born and raised
here. You know, as far as crypto, dude, it's kind of interesting. You know, Robinhood, you know,
back in, I guess it was like 2014, you know, there was like Bitcoin and Ethereum and whatever they had there, you know, their top five or whatever at the time.
And, you know, I was already trading on Robinhood.
So I've just seen that they had this crypto section.
I didn't know anything.
Like, I didn't know what it was.
But, you know, I knew that there was a lot of like volume. Like it was volatile. You know, it was but you know i i knew that there was a lot of like volume like it was volatile it was
volatile you know it was moving so i started trying to trade with bitcoin and i did i did decent
like at first and i pretty much got wrecked and uh didn't know anything about like you know all
the cycles and whatever at the time and i I had asked somebody, like, what the hell is this shit?
You know, it's doing work.
He, like, downplayed it so hard that I really didn't think anything of it.
So, like, I didn't really pay any attention to it until, like, around COVID, you know,
when Clubhouse was popping and a few of my friends down here in the audience, people I met back
then in that cycle.
So that's when I got real serious in crypto.
But yeah, for the music, dude, I've been a music junkie since I was a little kid.
My mom's a big music head, classic rock, and my dad's a big jazz.
He was a disco guy, you know, guy when he was younger.
So we always had shit rolling, you know.
We had the record player and, you know, all the little tapes and shit.
So, yeah, that's it.
So you're from Houston, man.
You're from Houston, right?
H-Town, yep.
All right, man.
So Lil' Kiki, man.
You know Lil' Kiki and all the people that are swinging and banging, right?
Yep, yep, yep, yep.
Zero Lil' Kiki, yep.
South Side.
South Side.
I'm going to South Side.
All the songs, right?
Yeah, man. That's amazing, man. There's a big, big following. People don going to South Side. All those songs, right? Yeah. Yeah, man.
That's amazing, man.
There's a big, big following.
People don't know that whenever you go to Houston, there's going to be a very, very big vibe of people over there.
If they've never seen anybody swing and bang, they don't even know what's happening.
They're going to take over your whole street, and they're going to swing and bang from every single lane, whether it's a five-lane highway or whatever.
They're going to take the whole thing left or right, and they're going to be like, what's happening over here, man?
It's really wild, but you know what I mean?
That's what it is, right?
Yeah, they'd be, yeah, you know, when they got their cars out, like, it's mostly during,
like, when I ever saw it growing up, like, we had, we had just, like, being at events
and shit, you know, and it'd be, like, them rolling down the street just doing that kind
of shit, and it's funny, because they do it out in the country, too, you know, because I moved a little further northwest from Houston when I was a little older out here.
And it's like it's like country mixed with the city, you know, and it's funny that like out there, they still do.
So if I like you said, you know, it's like.
I mean, in the greater Houston area, so big, bro, like I don't think people realize like when we talk about Houston, it's like, I mean, the greater Houston area is so big, bro. Like, I don't think people realize, like, when we talk about Houston,
it's like from Montgomery to, like, Katy down, you know.
Houston's massive, man.
I swear to you, whenever I drive through Texas, bro,
it takes me 75 hours just to drive from one side of Texas
to the other people need to realize.
And sometimes it actually takes me about 190 hours even to just drive from one side of Texas.
I swear to you, it took me about 200 hours one time to just drive from one end to Texas to the other side.
I just felt like I was going around the whole damn world, you know what I mean?
Yeah, no, I love Texas though, man.
It's a beautiful spot.
And what people don't realize is how much action is over there, how many people are constantly, you know what I mean,
vibing in every city to city to city.
So each city is big and there's a lot to do. That's the positivity. And especially when you're an artist, you know what I mean, vibing in every city to city to city. So each city is big and there's a lot to do.
That's the positivity.
And especially when you're an artist, you know what I mean?
Like, do you do live shows, man?
Or like when you started out playing in music, did you just start like just doing it from
like the heart of it, you know what I mean?
And then progressing into actually putting it onto a recording studio and stuff?
Or did you like start playing live shows and stuff and stuff like that?
Oh, yeah. No, I definitely didn't start out doing like live shit right away like i was always really
shy growing up you know or just quiet really not really shy like you know i was just really
observant and and uh you know so a lot of what i wrote was just shit that i thought about you know
and it was sometimes it was just you know romantic shit like whatever with some chicks or whatever and then you know the rest of it was like music that i liked you know listening
to and i would just try to write stuff like that and this was back i don't even remember the
software i was using at the time i would record stuff at home you know but it would sound like
shit i can't remember what software but you know it all, like, for fun for a long time.
Like, you know, we were freestyling in a gym at school, you know, during lunch and shit and at the games and at the parties.
And, like, music was, like, always really a fun thing for me.
Like, I never really took it all that serious other than, like, freestyle.
Mostly because that's what we used to do a lot.
Like, every day on the way to school.
Like, I'm telling you a lot and uh but writing was like always the thing that i did because you know like
i would be thinking about shit all day and like if i don't write it down i'm gonna forget it you
know i've always not really had that great of a memory so it's either like i get it written down
or i have to like try to remember it till I get to a notepad.
But when I got out of high school, I started I met this dude through a mutual friend and he had like a studio.
And I went over there one day and me and him started talking and I was telling him like how I was playing around with the stuff
at my house and you know I was looking at his shit like a kid in a candy shop you know like oh
he had all the knobs and then you know everything going on there and so I really wanted to spend
like time there doing that kind of shit so anyways like I recorded a song there with him
and uh he was like well he's like I'll tell you what, if you help me like make shit and like, you know, cut it and time it and everything, I'll let you just record for free.
So like I spent a lot of time.
A lot of time.
We used to just party at the house.
It was literally, it was in a house he had next to his house.
I know what you mean, man.
I've been a musician all my life, man.
So I've done everything possible.
I used to play clubs when I was 15, 16.
And everybody at school would be like, man, how are you playing these clubs?
I'd be like, just because we're rocking it out, we got our way out there.
We started showing people that we're pretty damn badass.
We'll play these clubs.
And I'll go back freshman year and fucking go to school.
And then the teachers will be like, yeah, they fucking be like,
I swear to you, they'll be thinking other kids are all like little kids.
And then we'll be playing shows and bars and rocking it out.
And it was very interesting, man.
But it's a process for sure, man.
People don't understand that you have to build yourself
and you have to build what you are, you know what I mean?
And especially to make people like it, right? People have to like like it they have to be a part of it and that's one
thing right for sure and what you do is amazing though man your tracks are flowing really good
dude you have a good style to it and like i said uh so around the 30 minute mark right here with
spaces man that's when people start coming in and you know we're barely even hitting around the 15
20 minute mark because we played a lot of music and also you know what i mean we uh just got the room started yeah man phantom i have a couple
questions and we'll run through them on after that we'll have anybody that wants to come up and speak
we'll give them the chance to come up and chill man but dude there's a lot of positivity in what
and what's happening man you know what i mean uh every single day when i come into the spaces bro
i come and i chill you know what i mean and i hear your name in many spaces. Mike Defy plays your stuff all the time,
man. I'm not sure if you know, but you go into the space with Mike Defy and bam, he'll be playing
some of your music, man. And like I said, that's a positivity. And other people like me, you'll hear
me playing your music a lot, man, just because I enjoy what you do out there and I support you,
man. But like whenever you're in the spaces, bro, what do you feel like is the main thing that you
got to do to get yourself
out so that people can hear you especially being a web3 artist uh like as far as being in spaces or
what do you mean like like in general right because of uh like so some of these web3 artists
right they they um i'm not sure if like um if they're always in specific music spaces or they
go into regular crypto spaces and let them all know too, you know what I mean?
Honestly, I would say like me, my main focus as like an artist would be if you have content.
And a good example would be people like Thanos and Adeka Fuel that have their music.
And they have, it's not really a music video, but they have video content with their music like and they have it's not really a music video but they have video
content with their music sometimes they have the lyrics with it you know stuff like that where you
can when you go to spaces you can share that shit you know like not just being in there because you
know sometimes like if you go to spaces that people don't know you it takes a while to get
on stage and like but if you can
just plant the seed down in the in the comments you know if it's a recorded space or whatever
then people can at least see and hear like and like you know if you put the lyrics you know
they can read along and sing along with it uh so like to me that's like the best marketing tactic
right now i would I would suggest.
And the reason I ask, look, is because there's a couple of things. And like I said, since I'm a musician, I know exactly how it is, right? If you go into a room and you're trying to show somebody
your music, how can you show somebody a three and a half minute song when all they want to hear
is something really quick, you know, and some people, you know how it is, they hear the music
and they think, oh man, if they don't have good quality and at least a decent sound, they're just
going to jump out and do another space they can just hear people talking
right so one thing is this the quality of sound is the main thing to actually have people need
quality of sound in order for them to have a good space because it's not that easy and then another
thing is like i said you know you go into a space and then um you know what i mean some people are
in there and they're just trying to hear what's happening around the vibe, you know, but you have to make sure that you give them a quick show enough for them to understand what you're doing, but enough for them to hear.
Do you have like do you have a show that you give people or you just go in there like like full force and let them know who you are? And I honestly, like, because at first I didn't have, I had like, what I would consider blind
confidence, you know, like, I really liked my music.
I still do.
I don't mean in the past tense, but like the songs that I picked for, let's, for example,
that last EP, there are several versions of like each of those songs and like the ones
that stick in my head the most that I like wake up every day and I'm like,
okay, that's the one I like. And sometimes it bounces between two and then I end up being like,
all right, it's this one, you know, sometimes a Digi and them help me pick, but shit. Forgot what I was talking about. What was the question?
No worries, man. So basically, man, like whenever you're getting into a room and then like having not to put a song on, but also let them know how badass you are.
What if somebody's a really good chiller and then they just suck on the mic, right?
See what I mean?
Yeah, I get what you're saying.
So anyway, like I was saying, for me, it was like it was blind confidence because like I didn't realize that it was such a polarizing topic at the time.
You know, when I made that, like people have been making AI music and it's been catching a lot of like controversy, I guess, more or less.
Right. And so I went I went into somebody's room.
I went into somebody's room. I think it was King of Hearts or Doodle. And it was like, it was either the day of or like a day or two after the mint. And I went in there and I was just listening. And they were on stage talking about AI music. And I was like, you know, I requested the mic and I went up. And I may have even interrupted. I don't remember.
and uh i may have even interrupted i don't remember because sometimes you might have to
just interrupt you know and so yeah i just went up there and i was like you know i got some ai
music or whatever and i just did this and whoopty whoop and he ended up playing it and i don't know
if like people didn't catch the context of what i was saying like i guess some people didn't realize it was all ai or
whatever and so like they were asking me like so what was like the beat was ai and you did the
vocals and i was like no the voice was ai and everybody so you did the beat and i was like
oh the whole thing is all of this shit is on from suno and they just like i don't know they just
everybody kind of the room like kind of went crazy for a little while,
like, like I said, it was a polarizing topic, and so that was interesting, right, and, you know,
Crypto Cam was in there, so he kind of was like, you know, this, I'm telling y'all, this dude can
make, like, anything, you know what I'm saying, and, like, I really can, like, I play around with all
different kind of genres, like, I really, I even play around with all different kind of genres like i really i even play around with like the music that sounds like it's live like you're sitting
out like concert type shit you know i'm saying i just haven't dropped a lot you know but
to shill yeah i mean to get back on topic you just got to get up there and i mean sometimes
they're gonna like it sometimes they won't but you just got to play it you know somebody's gonna
like hear it and then like i said you play your play your shit, you put your video in the comments, and they'll know where to find you.
All day, they have to look at it and do their own research, right?
Well, look, there's another couple of questions that I actually want to get to from there because you said a lot of things right there that I wanted to touch base on.
So music, man, AI, I have no problem with it, man.
I actually like it because if you do it right and you prompt it right, it'll come
out smooth. And also you could just get some instrumentals and those instrumentals you can
actually use, you know what I mean? To actually vibe with the instrumentals. So I don't mind it
at all. There's a lot of things, positivity with it that anybody can just really do. And also,
you know what I mean? Like for spaces hosts, I think it's the coolest thing ever. You know what
I mean? For a space host if
they know how to prompt it right and they know how to they know music they could come up with
something really really cool you know i know i have i use ai all the time i use ai for um
i use ai for some of my songs but the thing is i have to prompt it right and i have to listen to
it over and over and over to get a really good song. But I'll be honest, some of
it's really catchy, right? Some of it's catchy and people like that. That's what I vibe to.
So when you say you do AI, right? Now this is where we can go ahead and touch that subject.
As AI, do you do it as like all your songs or do you put a beat and you do vocals over it or you
have a special voice that you have that does all of your songs that you can use that voice for all of your songs
so essentially i take like lyrics and there's two ways to write songs in suno right so you can have
where you write like a prompt where you can say like write
me a hip-hop song about like whatever right with the jazz blah blah blah and you know whatever you
prompt it however you want you know and uh so you can it'll write like lyrics for you or you write
your own lyrics and then you put them in the in the lyrics section right and then there's a section where you can like
prompt the style like the overall it's basically like the original prompt like what you would have
done before but you're going to put the lyrics in right and there's several different ways
to go about it uh and reach the same end result and everybody's got their different style i've
seen several different things work on suno for some people and then it doesn't for others so um but like
when it comes to putting the lyrics together in the in the prompt section there is an art to that
it's like it's not just putting the words in there like there's stuff that i like kind of like not really back in it's you know i don't know how to explain it but it's it's like
yeah so i put i was actually yeah yeah i was like it's like they're called meta tags right so
you have like uh brackets um and so wish I knew that, you know,
and I want to make some like visual content for stuff like this,
but like, let's say you're going to start your song off,
like with, with intro or a verse one,
you're just going to get straight into it.
Like you have to put in the brackets, like verse one.
And then beneath that, you put your lyrics and then you put
you know some spaces and then you put a hook in the brackets and like you structure your song so
a lot of people that step right there yeah they don't know how to do that sound a lot better just
just based on that because the song now knows the software knows that it's not just one string of of lyrics you know it understands now
that like this is going to break it down break it down for explain it to a little bit right okay
that's perfect that's perfect see because i'm a producer right and i know already how to do uh
how to do you know the 16 36 they know what i mean i know triplets you know i was like i said
the music for so long so that's really cool that you can break it down
separately and you can say hey man I want to start it off
with the intro and then I want to start with the
I want to start with the verse
and then go with the pre-course and then do a chorus
and then start back with another verse
and then maybe do a pre-course and chorus and then
start a verse and then end it off with an outro
or something like that so you can structure it
like that right?
So that's basically your like skeleton of the song song. Now you've explained to the machine that
all these different sections have meaning. And it knows how to take your hook and if you want it to
be sung, it knows that you want that to be sung like a hook and not just like a melodic...
You know what i'm saying
yeah it dissects it it dissects it more into actually making it what it should sound like
right especially on how you on how you put it on there man yeah so that's the better part that it
can actually understand that you're trying to build a bridge or a hook to something you know
what i mean so if you're trying to bridge one part to another it knows how to bridge it right
rather than just uh ai thing just just prompting, prompting it and just giving you what they got, you know? Yeah.
Yeah, man. I've, I've been, uh, Hey guys, how's it going? Um, it's good. Uh, I've been messing
around with Tuno, uh, for a little bit myself. And yeah, I was just going to say, um, getting
used to like making it, uh, read your brackets and structuring your songs that way is massively helpful.
And then I have found that you do have to kind of like, you do have to mess with it just a little bit because every now and again, it will misread like a bracket or like a, let's say like, you know, how you do like a verse where it's like, and then I go and it's like, huh?
In the back, right?
And you put that in parentheses in order to get that backdrop, you know, that background, huh?
Like you would see it in a lyric.
And sometimes it'll, like, pronounce certain things.
Because you can also mix in sound effects.
Like, you can say, I want this to echo out.
And then, you know, do a drop here.
You can do stuff like that.
And then you can also, like, beatbox beat box or sing like right into the microphone.
it can also like do a cover of what you,
you bring up actually tried it with like beat boxing here and it,
it turned out pretty decent.
It was pretty crazy.
I know what you're talking about.
I haven't really played with it too much,
I've seen Timbaland playing around with it like that. And, you know, I've thought about i haven't really played with it too much but um i've seen timbaland
playing around with it like that and you know i've thought about it i've i've certainly definitely
have considered uh using that uh technique it's something i'd like like to experiment with but
you're absolutely right you know um it's all it's hit or miss you know like you you might get it
might take you 20 20 like times of
rendering a song before you get one that's like damn this is good you know and i'll be honest
there are times when i render so many versions of something just because i like do something
and i like have terrible adhd right so i listen to the songs and then like i'll be like oh wait
i actually i think i want to use this word or like,
I think it would sound better if I put, you know, like this,
I relate there or just whatever there, like this needs to go here.
And like, sometimes I'll miss stuff. And so like,
I'll render something and then I'll be like, Oh shit,
I forgot to do this. And then I'll go and I'll just like,
start another one, you know?
And then there's times where I have ones that I never have heard.
And so I go through, I go through my library and I listen to them and like, dude, the other day I came home from work.
I was dog tired, man.
I don't really ever come home and take a nap.
And I put my headphones on.
I was like, let me just listen to these like unheard songs or whatever.
And I kid you not, like I'm five minutes into my nap i'm
exhausted and like i'm asleep and the song comes on and i like open my eyes
i heard the uh the beat in the speakers and i at first i thought it was like a dream because it
sounds i don't know how else to explain it just sounds very phantom of the swapra like i don't know how else to explain it just sounds very phantom of the swap bro like I don't know
like you will find out when it comes out but anyways I woke up and I was like holy shit and
I looked and I was like I've never even played this on like now I gotta play around with it so
I feel that bro are you paying for pro are you paying for the $10 pro hell yeah worth it so
the editor if you use the editor I found that to be helpful but also it
does kind of suck it kind of sucks so but they're i will say their platform they're building it out
very fast and very good like they're advancing in a good direction so like i will continue to
stick with them for now i even reached out and asked to be on their affiliate team and they told me yeah i actually need to go i need to go fill out that email or whatever but um i need to maybe join
up with you because i'm right now using it for commercial reasons too like i'm i i made like my
solar company i made a theme song around it using a little bit of edm and stuff um and then i've
also made like other hemp companies uh some some tracks for them to kind of like boost up what they got going on and give their strains some specific tracks.
Yeah, and you could do it really cool like that, man.
That's what's special about this.
Look, I'm glad you came in here, Push, because like I said, you know, this is good for him.
Look, most people are probably wondering what Phantom's talking about.
So to have somebody to know exactly what he's talking about and come over here and explain it, it's pretty cool, man.
That's how you hit right on the spot with sometimes the spaces are
supposed to mean that you connect with people, man. I'm glad that you two are able to connect
and actually vibe with what's really talking because Phantom will talk about it. And he's
like, man, some people don't really know what I'm talking about. Well, you actually know what he's
talking about. You know what I mean? And I do too right here to a point because I do use an AI
version of, like I said, of music generated, right? And I do
pretty good because I know what I like, you know? I know what I like, I know what I hear. So if I
put something on there and I jam it out, I listen to it a bunch of times. I can listen to 10, 20
different songs and then I'll be like, I like this one. This one's catchy. And you know what I mean?
That's catchy to me. If it's catchy to me, it's probably going to be catchy to other people too.
So you know what I mean? I love it. I love it. I love it. And like you said, I can make music for anything. I made a song for my
wife the other day. It was actually a Spanish song. And also I made a song for, you know what
I mean? A song for her in English. I made a couple of songs in, but I get done. I made a couple of
punk rock songs, made a couple of rock. I love heavy metal, right? So it makes amazing heavy
metal songs, right? So I could just do a heavy metal instrumental and i could go in the background and really just let myself fly you know what i mean and everybody
some people will be like holy crap man you sound really good i'm like yeah it's just because at
this moment i can't get my band and i can't get us together so what other way to let myself out
than make a awesome generated heavy metal song that's to my t to exactly what i like with the
same breakdowns and i could just fucking go off on it to exactly what i like with the same breakdowns
and i could just fucking go off on it you know what i mean you can't beat that i i'll tell you
that for sure a thousand percent brother yeah like uh uh just just recently i was just messing
around you know most people expect me to make like cannabis and hemp videos and then all of a sudden
i dropped like a a fucking um what's it called it was an edm uh you know you know cotton eye joe it was like uh
you know it's like that country mixed with edm what was the right word for it bluegrass bluegrass
edm so i took a bluegrass edm concept and i was like i i wrote a whole song about getting uh
getting addicted to being trolled on x uh because everybody's like super dramatic and stuff.
And so I wrote a song about, about how like, oh man, I wish I should give it up, but I
So to speak, it's on my profile and I have tons of different like music styles.
Like one song that I listen to myself every day, cause like, like Phantom was saying,
you know, you make stuff that you like.
And if it's, if it's cool to you, it's cool.
One of them is a code coffee and cannabis. And that's like my wake and bake song. And that's like,
that's what I used to get going in the morning. You actually use it to get it. You get you going
in the morning, right? Cause there's songs that I make up and I actually use them in the morning.
I'm like, I like this song so much that, wow. Uh, it's cool. I can actually play it in my system
and it'll sound smooth. Yes a thousand i'm happy i'm
happy man you guys look i just want to let you guys know really quick so this is episode 28
web 3 music week we had uh i am thanos come on which was tuesday and then this is uh thursday
so we tuesday thursday saturday we do spaces we put on a person for spotlight speaking we have
phantom of the swapper right now in the beginning of the show we played about three songs so if
you listen to the recording you're gonna hear about three songs from have Phantom of the Swapera right now. In the beginning of the show, we played about three songs. So if you listen to the recording, you're going to hear about three songs from Phantom of the Swapera.
And then you'll hear us start talking.
I want to let people know, man, that thank you all for showing up and give Phantom the love.
Because Phantom is working his ass off out there every day.
And his music is amazing.
And I support everything he does, especially in the blockchain.
So yeah, Spaces on Next is going to continue always no matter what.
So we do Spaces Monday, Wednesday, Friday.
It's around the world.
Show the grill.
So go ahead and show the whole world around you.
And also Tuesday, Thursday is going to be DigiJoint sponsored space where I play a lot of Phantom of the Swappers tracks.
So I play Phantom of the Swappers around this DigiJoint sponsored space.
And then also Monday through Friday I do Blunt's Worth of Knowledge.
Today is Blunt's Worth of Knowledge.
In the end I had around 160 people.
So it was a really, really good show out.
And like I said, 160 people with people you show on your project to, they're going to
love it, you guys.
So I know.
One thing I always tell people is when you run spaces, don't worry about who shows up
in the beginning because you have to understand that the algorithm hits.
Keep it going for about 30 minutes to an hour.
Then you guys will have more than enough people in there for you to have a good time.
And in the end, who cares who shows up to your room in the end?
Because the reality is this.
If you continue a good show, some people get scared of the markets and some people are happy let them come back and
let them listen to the recordings on their time on their own free time right so you always have
to continue the show like nothing stopped and also give the vibe or if you're doing something
professional you keep it flowing don't stop and don't let anybody block you off on what you're
doing right so don't think oh man nobody's. Yesterday, one of my rooms had 55 people.
Today, it had 160 people.
It don't matter what happens one day to the other day.
The consistency matters, you guys.
So look, you guys, we're going to go ahead and move on.
Because we talked about right now, the last question was how you basically can show people
your quality of what you have and what you're building
without having to go on there and play a bunch of songs on Spaces for people to say,
oh, well, maybe I do or maybe I don't.
And what he was saying is he goes into the purple pill down there
and he puts his project down there and lets them listen for himself.
It's that simple.
If I were to listen to Phantom stuff, I'd like it.
Phantom does an amazing job.
And then we talked about the AI version of when he generates it, and that's how we got pushing here.
So yeah, you guys, I want to get on to the next question, man.
So Phantom, when you first jumped into Spaces, man, did you think that, like, was Spaces a really big help in pushing what you're doing?
Or were you already doing this before Spaces? Like, were you already having music on the blockchain?
Oh, no, I definitely didn't have any music on the blockchain.
So it's funny that you ask.
I stopped writing music.
Like, I don't want to say completely, but whatever you would consider it recreationally.
A very long time ago, like probably in my
early twenties, I just got really busy with work. I had like two jobs. So the most I ever wrote was
like whatever in my phone or like whatever, you know? And, uh, I didn't really take it that
serious, but I still would write like little, you know, I still had like, uh, lyric building
thoughts, you know? So I would write that shit down.
And, you know, I had a bunch of shit on my iPhone, but I don't really ever go back and look at it.
It's more just for fun type, you know, like I said.
But, you know, so coming into Web3, I had, you know, some people probably don't know and some of you do,
but I'm the dev for one of
the devs for pepe verse um and so when we when we launched that project
uh i had just started learning about the ai music thing and so you know i started making
little songs for like videos like you know what he said was he was making songs for like these weed companies and stuff
like that. And so it's basically the same thing, but you can take, you know,
anybody in here, you can take these songs and whether it's like a vibe part of
it with no like lyrics or whatever,
but you can take sections of these songs and make video content for your company other companies like it's a big thing going you know like a trend right now because
like it's basically what a commercial is it's just a custom song that's catchy and there's like 5 10
15 to 30 seconds of it you know you catch that part of them uh and you do your thing like that but
uh and you do your thing like that but yeah um phantom have you heard the cyber moon song that
i made the howling at the cyber moon i sing it everywhere man i think so but you can play it if
you want i think you heard it bro so look yeah see so look i made that song and i've been trying
to get a song with that type of caliber lately for that max community right so i know what you
mean like when you have something that you're like yeah man you can make a catchy song well everybody's like man
that was still the catchiest song that came out which is the howling at the cyber moon one so um
yeah there's always ways that you can use and um can you use it for commercial purposes also too
yeah so if you pay for the pro version of suno you are like fully able to sell the beats which i have a ton of you
know like the crazy thing about doing these is like they might like the vocals might sound goofy
or like certain parts of it are not what you want but in the background there's like a there's an
instrumental that you're like hmm and that's that's what, so to answer your question, that would make early your last question.
That's what made me get back into writing
was at first I was just trying to prompt it
because I didn't understand like
that you could like type in your own lyrics and stuff.
And once I figured that out, I was like, all right, well,
I tried to write like chat GPT,
but honestly, it's like, it was so corny.
I was like, no, you you know there's parts of it
that i'm like i don't like this is how it should sound and and it just that made me start writing
again it was like already having it kind of just i don't know how to explain it was like getting
back on the bicycle and somebody just pushing you and be like okay i remember this you know i don't
i don't mean to interrupt bro but like i totally feel that shit like deep down bro
because i used to make music uh way long ago i used to uh i i did rap on the piracy underground
side of things so like actually on hard drives out in iraq there's probably my sound my voice
on there somewhere um but uh what you're saying i actually kind of went through myself i am also kind of like i do
i'm a full stack so i build and develop and design and create and a lot like you i had to go through
uh going through like i checked out suno i saw it in a news article oddly enough and i was like
let me just see what the fuck this is and then i started prompting it like you and it was like
huh and i was like what could I do with this kind of power?
And I started messing around writing a few things and then just like you I saw there's a lyric side and as soon as I saw that
I was like I have to lock in I have to lock in right now
That's good that you could write your own lyrics though man because some people are really good poets and some people are really good
So if you could write good lyrics and you're just not good on the microphone
Then this is a perfect way for you to express yourself and show people what you're doing,
man. Because I'm good on both. I could write, I could do on the mic, I could do it with the
AI generator, whatever. But some people, they just don't have that flow on the mic. So it's
good to actually be able to use your style still and say, look, these are my lyrics, man. And it's
like, I know a lot of ghostwriters out there, man, that are much better than the actual people out
here really doing it and actually going on stage. And it's like, if know a lot of ghost writers out there, man, that are much better than the actual people out here really doing it and actually going on stage.
And it's like, if only they can do that and maybe get a screen in the background and put their music AI, man, they would still kill the people that are out here just, you know, showing the face.
For sure. And I'll also add to that and say that, like, the one thing that really stopped me, I mean, I'll spend like sometimes I just get into it and I'll turn on a beat and i'll just throw on random youtube stuff and i'll just freestyle out loud in the house and shit um but
the problem is uh for a lot of people is we don't have awesome recording equipment and a lot of us
don't feel like paying for fruity loop studio to make our own beats and shit so to be able to style
like a beat after your own stuff it takes so much effort and so much time and i know producers and
i've built you know i've worked with producers and made music before and it's a process and a half but to take this
and like just be able to plug it in and run and then like if you just like to be able to make a
beat within like five minutes is wild compared to having to sit down there and then make sure that
you dissect the beat and if there's a beat that's like a 10th of a second off, then you have to make sure you push it back there.
Like it's wild.
Like I said,
when I produce,
I dissect like crazy.
So if I go through a beat and if I make a drum beat,
and then one beats off that little,
I would have to go back and physically get that beat and move it back to the
spot throughout the whole song.
it's a lot of different things.
It takes a lot of time to create a real real real good beat you know what i mean i know
because i have tons of them and through here it seems like whoa man they created this beat which
sounds really good just like that and then you could fucking use it commercial you for commercial
use and use it for future things man i love it i mean i i was able to produce a uh drake style
song that totally sounded like something that drake produce, but you know, my style.
And, you know, it's like, it's one of those types of songs where like, my girl doesn't really like hip hop or my man doesn't really like hip hop.
But this is a song that we would probably both agree on if we felt like smoking to it.
It was that type of a type of a song.
But like, and then on the other side,
what program are you guys talking about?
Okay, yeah, Suno's the shit.
Yeah, okay, cool.
Sorry, sorry, I was just curious.
I just want to jump in.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Suno's strong as fuck.
And it's going to keep growing.
And all I see is unlimited potential.
You can sit here and extract an instrumental for yourself
and record
over it if you like and then or you could just go all in it really lets you be flexible and the fact
that it's so early in development is crazy so yeah there's a lot i love it man yo uh phantom
of the swapper you guys i'm gonna jump back on top of you guys really quick as i can say we want to
give phantom of the swapper the respect because this is episode 28 and also you know what i mean we're trying to put phantom of swapper on the spotlight you guys so we, because like I said, we want to give Phantom of the Swapper the respect, because this is episode 28, and also, you know what I mean, we're trying
to put Phantom of the Swapper on the spotlight, you guys, so we're going to move on to the
next question.
Phantom of the Swapper, man, look, there's a lot of things that you've been giving us
alpha on, you guys, look, and I didn't know that most of it was AI, now that I know, it's
even cooler to understand.
Now, look, question this, this is a question that I have off the, off the, off subject,
so, out of, like, a lot of the other artists that you know, because I know there's
some of them right here on the blockchain, are you the only one that's doing the AI, man?
And also, are the lyrics yours? Are those your lyrics that you're prompting in there? Because
man, like I said, they're the fire. I really like them. I enjoy them. And I listen to them
all the time, especially on the Tuesday, Thursday sessions. I try to play all of your tracks.
to play all of your tracks yeah so the so the first half of your question there are other people
that are doing ai music i'm not sure if anybody's gone to the extent of launching like you know a
seven track ep or and i'm really not trying to toot my own horn, but I kind of am, you know, and meant 577 copies,
you know, in a matter of two months. So that was a, you know, that was a big thing for me,
but it was a big thing I felt like for the people that are still figuring it out,
that they might be better than me one day, you know, like, I might not be the best AI artist
in eight months, you know, but like, I'm here to share information to help, like, I might not be the best AI artist in eight months, you know, but, like, I'm here to share information to help people, like, do this shit.
And maybe that's the route I go.
And I don't know what I'm going to be doing, but I'm going to always be involved with Pepeverse in some form or fashion.
And, like, honestly, I'm not going to stop doing music.
And I'm not going to, you know, there's a point that I'm going to get that. I probably will be out doing performances and stuff, but I won't talk about that too
much today.
Oh, no problem, man.
It's the cool stuff I got planned.
I really do have to.
That's for the future.
That's for the alpha.
You know what I mean?
That's for the future for people to say, all right, man, there is something to look forward
You know what I mean?
You kind of, you got to give them what they want, but at the same time, you have to hold
something in the back of the, in the back pocket. You know what I mean? This is the back pocket
thing where I pop out and he was like, no way, man. He had something ready for me and I never
knew it, man. But there's, yeah, man, everything that you're talking about, bro, people need to
not sleep on it, man. That's why I'm always out there, you know what I mean? Talking about you
from other spaces too. And it's a music space. I'll be like, yeah, you know, I play DigiBeats
from Spanimal Swapper, I Am Thanos. And you know what I mean? I always appreciate what you guys do out here, man.
And so you were talking about Pepeverse, man.
What else do you guys have planning, man, for Pepeverse?
And I know that, you know what I mean?
I was looking at that when you guys were – I remember Coco was talking about it,
and I believe Lady was speaking about it also.
Yeah, man, you know,'s whole story is very interesting in itself
because i met a really good group of people um and in a very short quick amount of time like i
really wasn't i wasn't like a mean point trader really like that you know i was i was a degen
you know to an extent but i wasn't that deep in the trenches. But I ended up stumbling upon this project, and it tanked.
And, like, me and, you know, we CTOed it and all this stuff.
And I ended up meeting Lady and her husband and eventually Coco through that.
And so we ended up launching this project, which we had ambitious roadmap from the jump, you know.
But we've pretty much made most of everything we promised in phase one
happen so far. And so, you know, it really started,
it honestly started like as an idea and we've just been building it since
then. And so what it was, was, you know, we, we,
we just like collaboration, you know, like the music I do, I do stuff for other projects and, you know,
I shout people out and like, you know, I know that makes people feel good.
And that's, that's what I aim for. It's like,
I want people to feel special because even though like, you know,
this is our corner of the crypto space, but like,
we're still important to hear. And so it's nice, you know,
for stuff like that. And, um, Jesus Christ, if I forget what I'm talking about one more time,
I need to stop in that pen. I'm just kidding. But, uh, no, just keep vibing and let it flow
off the tongue, man. That's the way it is. You know what I mean? Just like whenever you're
writing right there in the prompt right there and you're just like vibing, bro. You know what I mean?
So, uh, yeah, man, just keep it going let it flow man yeah um but yeah so Pepe first anyways we um you know we started out
it was like we wanted to have uh play to earn game and we made that happen which
I'll touch on that right now. It's actually really cool.
So most most play to earn games that I see, like, you know, it's like Flappy Bird or Temple Runner, which is this.
This is the style of like that kind of game.
And so but what we do is we run like these tournaments.
Right. So I'm getting ready to load the pot up with like probably about a soul.
Right. And so what happens is every time somebody
does like you pay for a run like you do you go to an arcade right and what you do you put like a
dollar a soul in or you know you got your wallet connected to it so like every run you do you
basically pay your ticket fee of one dollar worth of soul right and so you do your run you get three lives and uh at the end of it all whoever
wins ends up taking 90 of the pot and what we do with the other 10 when it goes back to the
marketing wallet and we end up burning it so we call it play to earn but it's like kind of play
to burn too so and the pots get big you know so i'm about
to put 150 whatever dollars in there and then each time a person runs that's another dollar another
dollar but like i mean eventually you know let her like so we're gonna run it for about a week
because we've got an nft launch coming up which is another thing on the road map you know and so
we're pretty much gonna let that run for about a week.
And who knows what it'll be at that point.
But that stuff, like, if you want,
let's see if it's in my bio right now.
No, it's not.
But somewhere in my page,
I'm sure you can find the Pepe.
You know what? Let me just go pin something up here
from Pepeverse.
I was actually going to go do it, too.
I was going to look in your bio right now and find whatever I found from Pepeverse and shove it up there.
Yeah, because I got the NFT.
So, like, this is really cool.
I don't know if you know this, but Coco, if he's in here, he's not in here right now.
But we had an NFT launch that was scheduled to be, I don't know, like, two weeks ago maybe three weeks ago it's for jude
20th now right uh something like that yeah yep it's up in the jumbo trunk so um so uh coco ends
up getting this like last minute opportunity to go on soft white underbelly which is like a really
popular uh i don't know how to like it's like what is it fringe i don't
know what the term for it but it's like you know it's like these very uh these kind of like stories
that you wouldn't normally see like this guy really gives people that have not had a chance
to like tell their story you know people that would probably normally get judged he gives them
a chance to like tell you, their life and stuff like that
and give them a voice to speak.
And so Coco ends up going on this show.
And, dude, before they took it off of monetization
because of the age restriction thing or whatever,
he was just, like, those numbers were going crazy.
In, like, two days, he had days he had like 350 000 views on him like people
were going nuts like and the comment section was so positive and like it's crazy bro like he got
so much love i don't know if you've seen it i would have to go find that and post it up here too
um yeah post it up man i want to see it he was talking about it in one of the spaces that i had
with the music spaces and just telling me about it yeah i think it was like a couple days when
it happened yeah he was like yeah man i've got like this many views i was like i was tripping man
dude it's you know it took me like two days to watch it because we were doing baseball season
with my son and stuff and i know you know how that is and uh yeah so like over the weekend we had a tournament and i
watched it and i think like saturday or sunday night we finished it and i just like i called
him halfway through and i was like bro i love you so much man you know i was like talking to him
about it and uh he's like dude you just gotta finish it and i finished it and me and my girl
like dude i'm not gonna lie bro like i love man. He's, he's a cool ass motherfucker. And, you know,
yeah. I was talking to him, man, about putting some stuff on the blockchain. Cause I was telling
him this, look, he was talking about a story and I said, look, why don't you write a storybook?
Like how fandom does. I told him fandom has this music. I said, why don't you just write like a,
a seven or eight um track story
story series and each each uh each one you basically put in uh two minutes of a story
or three minutes of a story and then break it into like paragraphs make it like eight paragraphs
into a storybook an audio man i'm i'm actually so funny that you say that i'm working on something
right now that's a brilliant idea though though. I should take his stories, too, and make them.
I told him that.
So if you do that, do it.
They remember me telling him that.
I was telling him, and I said, and then she's like, whoa, you're right.
And I was like, yeah, lady was there.
I was telling him, look, get in touch with Phantom.
Just said, it's easy.
Get five minutes or anywhere from three to five minutes on each song.
And then you don't even need to do much. You just a microphone you just get a microphone and you just talk in the
microphone and you put it you know what i mean it's easier than having to get a band and a group
and and making them all you know get together to make it you could literally just talk record it
bam sell it on the blockchain whatever you guys desire you know what i mean
yeah that's you know and that's that's that's what i'm trying to do for him right now so i'm
working on that for him but i that's a good idea actually so yeah when i finish this one that i'm
doing i'm gonna pitch that idea back to him to what he thinks about that i'm sure he'll eat it
up he's been wanting me to write stuff for him it's just you know i'm like yeah i'm doing a lot
right now so and i want his to be doing the idea I have for his. It's so good.
I'm just trying to get it right.
Always, man.
Always, man.
Look, you guys, we're running on the hour and 13-minute mark.
You guys, thank you all for showing up right now and rocking and rolling, y'all,
and giving Phantom the love right here.
So we're going to ask some more questions,
and then we'll go ahead and open it up to the speakers right now.
Any speakers, if you guys have any questions about what Phantom's doing,
go ahead and ask questions right now, and then we'll finish it off with the speakers right now. Any speakers, if you guys have any questions about what Phantom's doing, go ahead and ask questions right now
and then we'll finish it off
with the last couple of questions to go.
Usually around an hour and 30 minutes to two hours.
Usually we break the hour mark
and after that it goes an hour and a half,
maybe two hours.
We had one of these places go three hours
when we interviewed Budsy.
And yeah, it was pretty, pretty interesting.
But if anybody has any questions
to ask Phantom right now,
feel free to ask him any questions.
If you guys are down there in the bottom jump up you're asking some questions also if you
just want to give him his props and tell him that you enjoy what he does if you see him if you see
him in other spaces if you're also seeing him what he does you know what i mean just come over
and just give us the props let us know where you found him where you heard about him and also you
know what i mean if uh i mean anything you want to know anything you want to ask right now is the
time but yeah i'm glad that Push Pressure came in here.
I met Push Pressure today and he came in here to chill.
Now he's in here vibing with you, my friend.
So it's good to have people that are like-minded, you know?
Much love, guys.
Much love.
And actually, I do have a real question.
And this is going to be, I hope I don't open a shit storm with this question.
be i i hope i don't open a shit storm with this question um what would be your favorite thing to
uh to say to somebody who has zero nfts where to lock in what to lock in
as far as like how would you how would i go about like if you were to give a newbie like some great
tips about like a great tip about... How about this?
What would be your number one tip to give somebody brand new to NFTs
in terms of actually acquiring them?
Oh, as far as buying them?
Yeah, what would you say are your...
How about this?
What's a red flag for an NFT versus what what's something that would be like this is something
that you want to do i'm gonna tell you like this last cycle i didn't i didn't mess with nfts at all
just because i really didn't quite fully understand uh not that i had anything against
them but i just was like okay so it's like a JPEG and you can buy it.
I didn't quite get it. Right. So as far as art goes, I really don't know. Like,
I mean, being scammed, like what did you buy? You know, like you're buying the utility or you're buying the art of the NFT is the first question you have to ask yourself. And so when it comes
to music, it's very easy because the product is something that you it's not just something you look at.
Like, it's actually something you're interacting with auditorily.
So, you know, as far as on that end, I don't think you can really get scammed on a music NFT.
But when it comes to art, you know, they have music.
You're going to get music no matter what. Right.
You're going to get music and you're going to get what you paid for right then and there, man.
But if you're just paying for somebody's shitty NFT and they promise you something that's not going to get through it,
like you're getting music out of this Phantom NFT,
which is amazing.
You know what I mean?
You're going to push play.
It's going to play out of your Phantom wallet,
wherever you got it from.
Yeah, and it's actually going to be music, man.
You can mint it off of Launch My NFT up in the Jumbotron right there.
It's in the first, first post right there
where Phantom has his songs on there.
That's where you want to get those NFTs. And if anything man if you have never minted any nft go mint phantom's nft first man get phantom's nft right now up in the jumbotron man and go get
yourself one of these tracks bro i have i have three other tracks that i haven't played and also
phantom you have six songs on the uh on the nfts yeah six yeah six besides uh yeah six total i love them man
they're they're they're awesome man and we'll play some actually right now you guys once we
uh get through get to some more questions and the last uh the last questions that we have for phantom
anybody else have any more questions or push you have more things to ask them?
No, I mean, I was just mostly looking to see like if there was any real utility or viability in the art.
I see people flex with like their JPEGs all the time or whatever. Right. And I'm wondering, was there any value or is it just bragging rights at that point?
So there's like different to simplify it there's like three
different things you could be buying a nfp for right so like i have a kinfolks nft like i don't
care how much my resale value is for that like if i put my kinfolks nft on it's like it's like
belonging to this fraternity of people that it's like a network you know it's like I put that on I go to these spaces with them
you know we're cool people right so that's that's a value that that could be I could meet somebody
in that network that I could possibly do business with or whatever you know and then there's art
right so you can buy something just because there's art and a lot of like for me like I'm a
big Pepe art fan right and so like i would buy pepe art
just to buy the art and like if it was not really worth anything or if the artist was like
you know whatever you know like i bought that art like i can't really be mad at myself for
spending one each on a piece of art which i don't gotcha so it really is more about like uh for for when it comes to that side of
things it really is like like as you said more of a a community set a sense of community and
things that are driven behind ideas and that sort of thing until you find until you find the ones
that have like utility right so like with our nfts with pepeverse you know they're as as of this
point there's no utility because they're not out yet but
we once you have like my let's let's say for example like the music nfts that i have or these
pepe verse nfts it doesn't matter if like i don't have utility when we come out with them
because at any point you can build utility onto these things right so like i can take
for example this this pin tweet above the first one that i
have or whatever like let's say that golden uh there's six golden tracks in that mint out of
2 500 right i could eventually just be like if i'm making money doing ticket sales and shit or
whatever i could just be like yo if anybody has these six uh nfts like they account for one
percent of my ticket sales like if you whoever has that wallet you know like at that point i can
i can build utility on top of that so like if there had never been a frenzy for my music before
and like or you know what i'm saying and i'm getting popular and i'm like to want to kick
people back to this mint i I would do stuff like that.
So, like, why are you buying my music?
Not just because it's good.
Like, you know, why would somebody buy 20?
Like, oh, well, somebody with 20 could be in a raffle to win one solo every month or some shit.
You can do whatever you want.
There's also revenue sharing type things, man. So some people will
say, Hey man, the NFT holders will get revenue sharing from the token. So if there's an NFT
and a token, they'll say, if you hold the, you know, this, uh, if you hold this NFT right now,
then you'll get revenue shares from, you know, certain things from the token. Also there's
utilities behind it. Like for instance, we have a max token that I CTO'd and we have some nfts we have a massive trenching group that we have in order for you to get in
there you got to accumulate one soul of the nfts which we have them for 0.25 they sold out so we
have two collections that sold out so you can't really get them right now unless you're getting
them off of the aftermarket like the magic eden so the value of like i said there's all utilities
so you would have to buy uh one sole worth of
these nfts to be able to trench with us so we have a big trenching group of like 25 35 guys and we
have actually 45 with two different tiers so there is those values so it just depends on like he said
what you're looking for and what you're trying to get at and also what uh what person is coming out
with the nft and what their value is uh what the utility is you know also if it's just art you're
buying people's art,
or if the person has a really, really, really big room
and they say, I'm going to launch my NFT
because I don't want to have random people coming up here.
I want people who buy the NFT to come up here.
There's many things that you can use it for.
You can use it for tickets, you know what I mean?
So yeah, there's other things.
And like, okay, so I'll say this too,
it's like one thing is like on the art aspect,
like you might buy a piece of art that's
cheap right like let's say there's a person that has like a piece of art and there's like 2 500
of those copies right and it's the same thing or like maybe it's slightly different or whatever
like if you're paying two dollars for like one copy just because you like it you're still paying
that artist so like that's the best part of
you participating in NFTs in general is like, yeah, do your research or whatever. But if you
like a piece of art and it's cheap, I mean, those are some of my favorite NFTs are the things that
I didn't pay a lot of money for, but I looked at it and I was like, that's pretty cool. And I bought
it not because I think I'm going to sell it for 15 sold one day but because it looks
cool in my wallet and like that was something i didn't understand last cycle but this cycle i
have more of an affinity for art in general and look speaking of art i want to give uh my co-dev
miss lady opportunity to speak she's up here right now so i want to give her in the mic for a little bit come up lady how you doing lady what's up guys

Even Tom Vivian is giving away Phantom of the Swap for motherfucking NFTs, man.
And you know Tom Vivian's a motherfucking G, dude, you know?
Yeah, that was cool.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, that was fire, bro.
I went on there and tried to win it and shit last night,
but they were having a rap battle on there,
and they didn't want nothing to do with my Southern Hillbilly bullshit.
Anytime you want to rap battle, man, come in Tuesday, Thursday, man.
We do just regular music, but I have a spot where I put a couple tracks on,
and then anybody from the track comes on there.
I think you guys tuned in one day to that spot, but we already
were finishing up with the music. But yeah, we let people
come in. B-Swift actually comes in and gives himself
a little flow, which is pretty funny.
Shout out to B-Swift.
Oh, that's cool, bro.
Coco, you can feature on any one of my songs, bro.
I got you.
I'm going to send you a B-Swift.
You can give me that hip-billy shit. Oh, yeah. Man, I don't really got you. I'm going to send you a few. I want, I want. Give me that hip-billy shit.
Man, I don't got it.
I don't really got any.
I don't think so.
Just give it from the heart.
Just give it from the heart, man.
You know what I mean?
You never know.
It might be like that extra, extra vibe that somebody's like, whoa.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, man.
Coco, man, you're always amazing, man.
And also, lady, thank you very much.
And no, no, it's thank you very much for stopping by and giving the support for Fandom.
Fandom's amazing.
I play his music all the time.
And I also support him anytime I can through it, especially on the sponsor space.
I play most of Fandom's stuff all the time.
Yeah, he's the best, man.
Thank you, bro.
Thank you for loving us and supporting us how you do, you know what I mean?
And that's why anytime you got a space popping, boy, we're going to be coming.
All we always do, you know. Anytime, man. You know know what i mean i know we're always out here in the spaces
so anytime you guys are available jump in always out here in these crypto streets man
yeah even when solana's in the red it don't matter you know solana's in the red right now people
don't even want to jump into spaces that's the thing right now people don't want to look in their
bags to the point where their stomach's sick. It's crazy that
people do that.
I've been playing with me this whole time, you know what I mean?
Yeah, for me
I come out here vibing and we
continue the thing no matter what, man.
I don't worry about the charts. We continue
going no matter what it is. I'm always in the green.
That's the way I look at it because I really am always in the green.
Yeah, me too. I'm always in the green. That's the way I look at it. Because I really am always in the green. Yeah, me too. I'm not
an investor, so I can't
lose. I just make a lot
of art, but
I am a D-Gen and a
degenerate since I was about five years
old. That's why I fucking fit in these spaces
so good with all these people.
Because, you know,
We are D-Gens, man. We are D-Gens.
Airheads was with Brendan Fraser and Adam Sandler and Steve Buscemi.
And they had a song in the end that goes, degenerate.
Degenerate.
Yeah, man.
That's me.
We're degenerates, man. I know that shit, dude.
Oh, that's fire.
You seen Airheads?
Yeah, bro.
I definitely have seen it. Plenty of times. Lots of times. Okay, man, I swear you I've asked a hundred thousand people
Really many never seen Adam Sandler as the poor guy. I swear to you. It's the best
Yeah, yeah big shout out to everybody be swift is his hand up. What's up, B-Swift? B-Swift.
Especially if you want.
B-Swift, I don't think your microphone works, man.

Yeah, he's been trying to speak.
B, take a laugh, bro.
His microphone don't work.
I'm going to remove him from the speakers, and you're going to have to come back up.
You guys, man, we have one more question to ask.
Does anybody else have any questions to ask Mr. Phantom of the Swapper?
Because B-Swift had his hand up, and I invited him to speak against who's going to have to come up, you guys.
Yeah, get y'all's AI questions out now because like i might be in a generous mood
giving some output and not only that but just uh uh oh so phantom do you do spaces during the
week and if not then what spaces are you in um two check one two yo phantom yo big big shout
out phantom yo i've heard you and um you've done great music you know much
love and i don't know cyber knows this but any friend of cybers is a friend of mine so you know
even if i didn't know your music is the shit you know just by the way you speak and the way you
hold yourself and the way you have people like lady fucking showing love you know i'm saying like
you know you could say you're the best ever but it doesn't matter dude it's what other people say dude so you know you got advocates here bro you got pepe showing up
for you i see a bunch of pepes in the crowd you know i'm saying like you know you're a real one
so i appreciate you and salute to you bro yes sir and shout out to the moosters bro i like
i got a couple moosters jams i i don't know if you got them, but I've sent it to Bradley.
I've sent it to YouTube.
I want to mint them for you guys, too.
But, dude, yeah, man, I appreciate you and everything you guys got going on.
You're another one that shows up every fucking day.
And that kind of shit, like I said, in this corner of it all is really important.
That's the shit that keeps it going.
If nobody did that consistently, there would be nothing.
It'd be empty. We'd just be sitting here by ourselves playing the ukulele, but that's the shit that keeps it going. You know, if nobody did that consistently, there would be nothing. It'd be empty.
We'd just be sitting here by ourselves playing the ukulele.
But that's cool.
You know what I'm saying?
But now we're in a crowd.
We get to enjoy the ukulele together.
We get to enjoy Phantom.
And we get to enjoy people like Lady.
This guy's got jokes, yo.
He's funny, dude.
I like him and his wifey, you know.
They vibing and shit.
So it's cool, man.
And Pish P, he's my friend.
Yo, he's my brother from another mother.
I just met him.
I haven't even talked to the guy,
but I already know me and him are cut from the same cloth.
So, you know, we just sent a DM to each other.
And it's just about vibes, you know what I'm saying?
Right now, everything's in red.
Places are getting blown up.
And this is the best place to be
because it's a safe space.
We're all together, you know what I'm saying?
Like, you don't choose your blood family,
but you choose your spiritual family, you know? And there's a thousand million spaces going on right now. We're all together you know i'm saying like you don't choose your blood family but you choose your spiritual family you know and there's a thousand million spaces going on right now we're
all together in this space so it's special to me dude yeah no definitely and you know what i mean
through what's ever happening you know that what i always tell people is unless you have direct
control of what's happening you know what i mean you just got to be safe by yourself and continue
to fix what's happening in front of your face. So no matter what's happening over there on the news and everything, unless you have direct access to make something happen over there, all you can do is take care of your family, which is in front of your face and take care of yourself, which is in front of your face and figure out ways to only live day by day and not really overthinking too much about what's really happening because unless like i said you're working for the pentagon or you're over there really really doing it or you're a part of like a mass protest then you
know what i mean you're gonna just uh hurt your mind and mess up your mind about stuff that you
really can't have no control of at this moment if you do have that point of view where you can
you know what i mean control all this then power to the people that are in that position you know
what i mean so those kind of people you know what i mean um then then yes i would say you never know, you never know that music that you're playing while they're driving to go save somebody right now, you know what I'm saying? You'd be the superhero music. You know what I'm saying? You could be like the fucking phantom, the opera, you know, superhero music, like, you know, some phantom, you know what I'm saying? Some vibes, you know what I'm saying? So, you know, every phantom needs their Batman, every, every Batman needs their Robin, you know what I'm saying, some vibes, you know what I'm saying, so, you know,
every phantom needs their Batman, every Batman needs their Robin, you know what I'm saying,
that's Lady right there, that's your Robin, you know what I'm saying, and we got her, that girl,
you know what I'm saying, that's so lovely that you have people showing for you, bro, like, that
means so much for me, knowing how much that means for you, so I don't know if that makes any sense,
but much love to them yeah i appreciate
that you know and honestly when i started the phantom thing like the name it all just came
together right like the name came before me doing the music right like isn't that crazy
i believe it and you know and like now it's developed into this you know and the reason
i have the mask and everything is not like to hide who i am i don't care who if who knows what i look like or whatever it's because like to me when i write i write for
like us and so i want people not to like look and see a person i want them to like hear the music
and you know there's different people not judging by a fucking face but instead by your by your
whatever you know yeah for sure that's that's like the most important thing to me
and yeah having the people that supported like having come from and so this is where like digi
and them are really important to me too is because having come from like the background of working in
production and doing studio work and shit is like i know how much time goes into like doing recording
i think pushed even said earlier like the ai stuff makes it easy for somebody that is a poet or somebody that has even amateur songwriting
capabilities can turn a song into something that sounds really good even professional if you have
the right program you know and so you know having the people that like are able to make that happen
really quick so like that launch like they hit me up one day and was like yo we want to do a launch with you like put some shit together and so i did and uh it happened
really quick and you know they were able to make that happen and i you know i will pat myself for
this but i do have one of the i i think that might be a top mentor like i think that that album has
like the most mint out of all of them so far which is really cool you know and it was a
big statement for like ai music to me most importantly was for people to know like that
wasn't me vocally that wasn't me on the beats that was just somebody that like let's say i don't have
any capability or background in doing all that stuff and i was just a super nerd you could still
make really dope music and put it on youtube and like get paid for this shit like you know what
i'm saying you can do some really cool stuff with it that's right baby that's right you only you only
miss all the shoots you don't take all the shoots you only miss all the shots you don't take you
know what i meant you know for sure bro you're you're you're slam dunking on lots of them though
so keep it up bro appreciate it not only that Not only that, bro, but listen, dude.
Everybody here doesn't realize it,
but the fucking neighborhood
that me and him are from, dude.
Let me tell you something.
He's an anomaly, dude, to be here in Web3,
have education, and be doing this shit.
Dude, everybody where we're from
is in prison or dead.
And I spent 25 years of my life in fucking prison.
So I know.
You know what I'm saying? Where we come don't they don't get out of there so i'm so proud of him like just to be just to be
get rising above that and educating himself to move around and now he's just killing it up in
these with this music in these spaces and it just so many people are just it hits home to everybody because he writes this shit like
from a place where we all come from you know what i mean and uh so yeah man it's like i'm extremely
proud of him he might say he's a nerdy kid and all this and that i know that's true but i know he's
tough as nails coming from our hood because there ain't nobody soft ever came out of there dude and he's
he's uh tough and smart because his ass didn't go to prison he let all of us do that shit and
and he uh he's been out here playing with you guys all this time you know and that's that's
the coolest thing that's badass bro i'm very proud of you dude like honestly dude you know
i appreciate that bro but i want you know the coolest thing about it all is from me and you coming from that place is that you know like
you do have to fight your way out of a lot of shit and my parents made a decision to move us
when i was like 12 which was the smartest thing they could have ever done because even though i
was still a rascal i wasn't as bad as you know we came back to do like a job around there when i was like out
of high school and shit and i seen like what that area ended up turning into it's not good and so
you know for for like there's me that came out of it on this end and then there's you that went
through on that end but like look your story is fucking like honestly you know i don't like it's amazing bro like that
you went through all of that like while i was growing up and like to hear your side of that
you know after all of this is like it's crazy and like you know when people like lady who asked me
like isn't that crazy and i'm like it is but like i believe all of it like i never once doubt anything
you said because like i know where we came from.
I know exactly how we get down, dude.
It's crazy.
Your music speaks to him, dog.
That's what it is.
Your music speaks to him, bro.
That's my homie, man.
Yeah, I appreciate it, man, you guys, especially everybody coming out over here to show him love, you guys.
You know, we're going on about an hour and 42 minutes, you guys. And I appreciate everybody who has questions.
And also just showing love to them in general.
Yeah, you guys, you know.
And one thing is, you know, Spaces on X over here, you guys.
When I run these spaces, I try to make sure that everybody, you know, gets the time to basically ask their questions.
But at the same time, we want to get the shine on Phantom of the Swapper.
We want everybody to know that Phantom of the Swapper is out here really, really doing it, you guys.
And every single time I play a space that has music, he's going to be the person that's on there. And
as Spaces on Next does do 365 days out of the year, 24-hour spaces, you better believe that
we're playing Phantom of the Swappers music, you know, especially as we grow and as he grows and
the community grows, we're going to be having music like that, you guys. So, you know, be tuned
in for what's happening. Don't forget to like retweet the room. And also when you put a comment and you share and you put your project,
people always look back over here because we are spaces around the world. We have people that are
sleeping right now that haven't, you know what I mean, woke up yet. And when they wake up, they,
they've been telling me, man, can you run a space at a different time? And I said, I can't because
that's when I'm sleeping. So I can't just wake up at three in the morning to run a space. So,
you know, people will come in here and they'll read They'll listen to these spaces all the time. They'll go back to home. So always remember you guys that
What is recorded they will hear and more people will listen always end up getting like 30 to 50 people
extra listening to the spaces after so yeah
Much love to every single person out here
And I wish we could always have the people on the other side of the world be a part of this
But they will be a part of it once we get more spaces
But you guys we're gonna ask one more question to other side of the world be a part of this, but they will be a part of it once we get more spaces.
But, you guys, we're going to ask one more question to Phantom of the Swapera,
play a couple songs, and then wrap this baby up because we're going to be in the two-hour mark, you guys.
And you guys hear this little baby right here sitting down on me?
She's the cutest little thing in the world,
and I am a father out here in the world.
But at the same time, we're making sure that we shine, you guys.
So here we go.
I'm going to put – I'm going to ask you one last question, Mr. Phantom of the Swapera,
and I want everybody to know this. So what kind of things should we plan on seeing phantom of the swapper
in the next three to six months and also you know what kind of alpha do we have coming out here from
you is there any more new music new nfts and what should we prepare for man because i want everybody
to know i'm actually really glad you asked that because that's where I'm at right now.
What's next for me?
Okay, so like I said, it's crazy that this all came together, you know, the name before the music and then figuring all this out and stuff like that. And so, you know, and then the whole building the identity and brand of what is Phantom of the Swapper, right?
So right now what you can expect is i'm going to be basically focusing on the
storyline of like the character of this um because i want to build it out in much more of a
different multifaceted way than like just making music right so i want to be able to do other stuff
with it because i feel like with the name and everything, I do feel like I have a lot of, uh, like IP gold that I'm sitting on.
So I'm, I'm going to run with that.
Um, so, and then the other thing is the video content, you know, with the lyrics and stuff
like that.
And I do have a lot of stuff I'm cooking.
Um, and I think in my opinion, everything I work on is always better than the last thing.
So there are times that like I wake
up and I still listen to that old you know that EP but then like you know the stuff I'm working
on right now I'm like really excited about uh they've also upgraded their model since since
then um so the quality and everything is just a little bit like better in my opinion and more
crisp and um so you know i'm looking at
doing more music and stuff like that too but you know i'm mostly going to be tying all this with
with pepe verse so you know when i'm doing like uh when i get to the point you know and i've been
invited to go to new york and do like shows and shit and i want to get there and i will get there
i'm just not there right now you know what i'm saying and so you know what can you see it may be beyond six months but there will become a time that
so here's the thing look I wasn't going to talk about it earlier but if you've been sitting in
this room this long then you kind of deserve to get so when it comes to like doing performances
and shit like having this character or whatever I got a I have a friend of mine um she's a like literal
professional like i don't want to say costume designer but she does like outfits and shit for
like usher and beyonce megan the stallion and all these people right she's like repeat customers
like she's you know she's a person in the industry i don't want to say um but her her brand is
stinson house um you can look it up on here on x it's a she's a dope fucking she's really dope
fashion designer but she told me the other day she's like what do you need and i was like ah
you know i don't know i like i don't know i don't know what to say like you know where do i start
and she's like uh you know i'm gonna get you up, but you need something to at least be on, like,
to do, like, video content with, like, you.
So I'm going to do you, like, a mask and everything.
And I was like, well, that's so fucking dope, bro.
Like, so, you know, next is, like, doing stuff like that,
like interactive YouTubes and whatever.
And, you know, I don't, like I said,
it's not about hiding my face.
It's really just, to me, it's a fun,
the character of it is just fun to, you know, Phantom of like i said it's not about hiding my face it's really just it to me it's a fun the character of it is just you know phantom of the opera you know it's already a very household name phantom of the opera so piggybacking off of that is something that like if somebody were to
see that and like merch there's another thing i guess i should say is like having the merch uh
because i do have you know a certain
brand the same way we have pepe versus got like a galaxy type brand minus sort of like futuristic
uh like it's i guess it's kind of like a star wars mixed with like uh lost in space type shit i don't
really know how to like that's kind of the, the original prompt I had when I was making the character.
And so it just evolved into, you know, all these different things.
And the one I have now with the iridescent face and the brown robe or
whatever, it's like my favorite. So I'm going to run with that look for now.
And so look at branding and, and, you know, honestly,
I even thought about doing like getting like ip for the character and everything so but i don't know you know as
far as timeline goes i don't really know for all that but just know this is that i'm not gonna stop
doing this shit um and then i'm gonna keep speaking for web3 and i'm gonna be taking other
web3 artists with me and i'm gonna be be teaching people along the way. So like you asked me about hosting spaces earlier, it's something I would
like to do during the week more often, maybe something I will try to shoot for because I did
a pop-up space before and it actually had a really good outcome. And so I may look at doing some of
those in the future. So as far as like like that goes those are the most things i would say
right now um from me but also be looking for me to be building a pepe verse and working with lady
and coco and uh doing stuff with that and like you know don't sleep on it like i hate being that
kind of salesman to be like go buy it but like honestly what is 20 bucks gonna hurt you to go
buy some p-verse right now you know you know whatever you got like 10 bucks like just go put that shit in there and
leave it there because like we're not gonna stop building we got merch coming for that so like
that's how i'm piggybacking my merch is off of a deal we have with a close friend of ours um
and you know mike and so we're gonna be working with that and you know that kind of stuff's really cool
because once you get to the point where you're doing that you're generating revenue and you got
stuff that's in stores and shit like now we're talking right you know what i'm saying so like
just keep watching i'm gonna be i'm gonna be building we're all gonna be building uh i don't
know if we if ryan or if dirty told you guys this but I'm not taking
profit from this
NFT it's the NFT project
Pepeverse NFTs it's all
literally cycling right back into Pepeverse
every single penny of it it's all going
into our chart so
that's going to be really nice
he understands the tokenomics
but he's doing that part I'm just the artist
here let me get him
yeah I don't know Cyber
do you got a few minutes because like this is a really
big thing for us coming up soon
he's asking if you have a few minutes to talk about
the NFT and how we're going to do the tokenomics
he says he's just trying to listen
right now the dogs are going wild i mean so look i can i can
talk basically is look we got a thousand um total and like until he gets up here but you know we
have one it's limited so there's one thousand total uh it's a psychedelic collection so the
theme is like psychedelics it's very like trippy vibe's really cool. And they're all hand-drawn.
They've been done by Lady right here, who's next to V-Swift.
She's done the entire collection by herself.
She's worked really hard over the last like month and a half to get this done.
So I'm really proud of her.
Because, you know, the story behind that, like, we didn't know who was going to do the nfts
when we had it on the roadmap we just knew we were going to do them and uh she's like is it
something i can do and i'm like i didn't know her that well you know like we knew each other good
but not well and i was like i don't know you know i wanted to learn how to do it but if i you know
i'm a graphic artist too but not like her i didn't realize her level and uh she dude she fucking by herself learned how to do it and has gotten this far and she's
already done one collection for the vibe society which did really well and so i'm really excited
the vibe society has no like it's my project i'm not talking down about it but it's got nothing on
this one like i've learned so much yeah i've seen this
neat piece from doing the vibe society and while doing pet favors like these things are next level
like they're dope dude like they're really dope people are gonna buy them for the art i promise
they are dope yeah like ryan and i were thinking about actually having an NFT wall made in our house.
That would be really cool.
We also have other stuff too.
So what she's saying with the Pepe art is, to me, that's one of the biggest things in this space is Pepe and Pepe art.
Because it is a symbol of freedom and being able to do shit, whatever the fuck you want to do with it.
It's not copyrighted. We can do the fuck you want to do with it it's not
copyrighted like you can we can do literally whatever we want to do with pepe and that's
something that matt fury has made possible um and you know it's been used as a symbol of yeah
non-gate keeping and freedom and information sharing community and so like we've been also working with other pepe artists um some
big ones and so we're going to be doing more what we call like artist features or highlights where
i basically do like an interview with them um like in a message and then i type out this long
thread like about you know who they are their life how they got into Pepe art, et cetera, et cetera.
And then they end up doing an exchange.
We do like we do an art piece.
And so the lady that we did most recently, her name is Amy Digi.
And she's going to be doing here for us maybe in the next month.
She's going to be doing a physical piece and a digital piece, which will be minting.
Some of those profits will be kicked back to her,
but everything like what lady did for that NFT project will also be going
right back into the project. So, I mean, like I said,
I don't want to be that guy,
but I don't think it would hurt anybody to put a little bit of a,
a little bit of Solana somewhere for a little while, you know,
and just support projects that
are just you know i'm a real person i'm a dad i you know i take my son to baseball practice three
days a week and i work every day besides that you know except on the weekends and you know just we
do what we can in the meantime like we're not out here for a quick flip like we really are
business-minded people very artistic and intelligent
people and like this is something that we take very proud like a lot of pride and and we're very
proud of it i'm very proud of it i know they are so um art looks dope appreciate it yeah and i see
them everywhere man that's the thing you know the arts the arts awesome you know they're everywhere
and like i said one thing is when you see them out here really doing it you want to be a part of the
people who are out here doing it like you said you know check it out uh also if you guys have

want to hear uh you know what i mean what it sounds like through other through other different
spaces and everything everybody yeah I know but Phantom
man I appreciate you for coming out here
hanging out we're running on two hours y'all
you know what I mean so it's always good to give that one project
two hours and it gives them the big spotlight
hey you want to know something real quick before you play the music
you know I know a lot of people
think when I show up to the spaces it's like
to hear my stuff or whatever but
honestly I show up like to support people like you that play it, that take time out of your day to sit in a spot and commit time to doing that kind of stuff.
Because like the music is very important. But then like, how does it get to the end user?
How do people hear it? Like, how do people know my name in these spaces?
It's because of people like you so
i show up really to support dads like you you know you're sitting here with your baby in your lap and

in the morning evening and then the afternoon you know what i mean and we do it for people like you
we do it for people who are out here growing and also so we can grow community and show people that
man crypto ain't dead crypto ain't going nowhere but also as musicians musicians
on the blockchain so you're breaking barriers in many ways you know what i mean ai musicians
blockchain you're checking off many lists other people haven't even thought of uh so i mean i
would consider us the pioneers of what we're doing the pioneers of crypto the pioneers of
spaces the pioneers of nfts you know what i mean we're starting off when people still have no clue
you know what i mean seven percent of people in the world know about crypto and we're that part that continues
to grow, man. But yeah, man, everybody go up in the jumbotron and get yourself an NFT. Phantom
of the Swapera, thank you very much for coming out. We're literally going to break this two hour
mark in about two minutes. All right. So I want to give you the appreciation for coming out here
and answering these questions, but also vibing with us, man, letting us know. And one thing is, you know, today was a red market, right, Pia? There was
red market everywhere. You got to remember also in the red markets, people, their stomachs start
to twist. They're like, I don't want to go anywhere. I don't want to open up the phone right now.
Not here. Not here. Over here, we open up the phone every day, no matter red market,
because green markets, like I said, like I said, for me, every day is a green market, because I'm only playing with house
money, man.
I'm already up.
I'm already up by a lot, and I'm just over here doing my thing.
So not one day will I look at my crypto bag and let it affect what I'm doing out in life,
But much love, man.

us. That way you can always hear your music, but still, people
will be like, Phantom'soms are awesome, man.
He comes out here and he talks, and he comes out here and lets people know what's happening.
Thank you, lady.
Thank you, money man.
Alpha Fomo Flexing, a tucada right there.
And then we have Push Pressure, man.
Thank you, Push Pressure, man.
Thank you all for showing up.
The Vitamin K, and then also Dirty What's Up, Dirty Prairie.
You guys, I put some stuff up at the top from the from the other the pepe verse go check it out
Return also spliff 619 you guys see you guys later. Here's some music and wrap it up you guys. Peace out. Enjoy the music
Enjoy the music Man, I don't say much, I just watch how they move I see them rush plays that I never approve
Throw money at trends, act like that's a flex
But what's the return, what's really the next?
You still buying brands just to prove that you winning
I own the whole floor, I ain't renting a section
They want the applause, I want the percentage
They beg for attention, I need the investment
And it's crazy cause I see them all tweet like they got it
But wealth ain't a flex, it's a habit
It's silence, it's patience, it's moving in ways
Where the money don't see, entertainment is valid
I don't gotta be seen, I just gotta be paid I just gotta make plays while they're trying to get praise They be talking too much, trying to post every move Get some Pepe verse.
And also get yourself an NFT up in the Jumbotron. Just giving y'all kings with a check on the side, sell a dream, and then vanish on cue. Man, I ain't with the talking. I just do what I do.
If I say it, I'm in it.
No need for a proof.
I just move how I move.
I don't care for the views.
They react out of sight.
That's the difference in moves.
If the money don't flip, then it's barely a play.
If the wrist don't hit, then I'm out of the way.
They chase what's trending.
I'm building a space.
They still buying hype.
I've been buying a place.
Get yourself some Pepeverse.
See, I don't need to announce when I step. I don't need to make noise. Get yourself some Pepeverse. I flex by securing my name on the desk. I could give them the game, but they never gonna listen. They just wanna hear words that support the decisions.
They don't wanna hear patience.
They don't wanna hear building.
They just wanna hear flipping or reason or risk it.
They just wanna see Lambos and captions that match.
They don't wanna see structure or nothing that lasts.
They just wanna be rich for the gram.
Not for real, so I left them to chase it.
I'm good where I'm at.
Yeah, I peeped how they act.
Say they rich, but they stuck in the loop.
Buy high, sell low, then repeat it again.
Like the lesson ain't written in proof.
I ain't chasing no wave.
I ain't looking for hype. I't stunting for none of these fools
I'll be sitting on bids, I'll be patient with plays
I'll be stacking like money don't move
Look, man I ain't with the talking
I just do what I do if I say it, I meant it
No need for a proof, I just move how I move
I don't care for the views, they react, I decide
That's the difference in moves
If the money don't flip, then it's barely a play
If the wrist don't hit, then I'm out of the way
They chase what's trending, I'm building a space
They still buying hype, I've been buying the place Yes, yes, yes, everybody.
Yes, that's what I'm talking about, y'all.
Here we go.
Friends and Fandomies, now we'll wrap this up.
Later, Fandom.
Thank you very much.

and also Coco over there, you guys.
Go follow everything.
Peace out, you guys.
Have a good one, friends and frenemies.
Market cycles, vicious, only winners read the signs.
Seen them bet it all on luck and watch the exit close in time.
They was chasing candlesticks.
I was tracing paradigm.
Why they panic sold in fear.
I was adding on declines.
Digi-joins for victory, every play in position.
Coin still the future, real liquidity's the mission. Wake and Blake before the morning, every move a premon of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of the story of Bitch feel artificial, he just shipped him with a scan Somebody grabbed a camera, pervy got the char bananas
Everything he touched go parabolic, price been dodging gravity
Hawkeye spot a sniper from a distance, see the scam
Pepe pivot with the pivot, ain't no way they run it back
Trust the ledger, trust the play, markets move but I don't wait
Tag a friend, tag a friend of me
Took a loss, I made it back, every lesson still remains
Took a risk, I ran the track let him
marry michael defi get to bags no emotions just a math cam gone tag a frenemy archive it like a
past soul saver moonsters building party busts don't need no gas go get stuff in nft it's up
in the jumbotron you get one of these tracks four four is the first emotion never meant a second
hand nice lady brush a moment every canvas holds a trade phantom of the swapper flood
the system with the waves slick rick got the chilling spill the exit got delayed you could
play inside the cycle but the winners wrote the play watch them burn it off for nothing price
imploded overnight watch them think they saw the bottom while the volume said decline this ain't
hype this mathematics this ain't hope that's how it's time i've been reading off the ledger every
move been underlined trust the legend, trust the play
Markets move, but I don't wait
Tag a friend, tag a friend
And watch him watch us elevate
Took a loss, I made it back
Every lesson still remains
Took a risk, I ran the track
Let him marinate
Portnoy being Portnoy
By tomorrow, blame the chain
Molly rugged, half a nation
Now they tryna hide the stain
Millennial was a legend
Till she vanished with the name
They was waiting for a savior Now they praying for the stain. Millennia was a legend till she vanished with the name.
They was waiting for a savior.
Now they praying for the same.
Baby doors closed.
It's all dumped out the rain.
They was calling liquidation while the devs had set the stage.
Seen a tick or read a margin.
Seen the hackers crack a page.
Ain't no safety in the system.
They was coded to engrave.
I've been watching how they move.
I've been mapping out the steps.
I don't listen to predictions.
I just counter with finesse. This a market of you don't head you gonna regret if you waiting on the future best believe it come collect
Trust the ledger trust the play markets move but I don't wait tag a friend tag a friend of me
Tag a friend of me
Tag a friend of me
