They're trying to get in guys. They're trying to get in. They're trying to get in. This is crazy. This is crazy.
The year, the shows me his iPhone.
And he's like, look at my ape.
This is how much my ape is.
Check out all my NFTs.
Check out my bags.
And I'm like, that's dope.
That's cool, man.
That's awesome.
And money's awesome, guys.
But then he started explaining to me blockchain technology. He started explaining to me utility and roadmap and all these crazy things
that are involved in this space. When I left that meeting at Panera Bread, Bapo, I went home.
You know what was the first thing I started doing what I'll knowing anything about this space
working on backgrounds, bro
digital designs
Month later or two months later. It's November our Basil starts cooking up guys
One of my friends
Which I thought was a bot or something on Instagram,
but he's a very good friend of mine.
He's DMing me on Instagram.
He's like, yo, I didn't know he was an ape at the time too.
He's like, yo, I think you should check out the Bored Ape Yacht Club.
I think you should check out Discord.
You should check out all the stuff.
My boy Post.
I didn't know it was Post at the time.
And I'm giving you guys lore right now i'm giving you guys the play-by-play book of how rock soul and christy love and all this shit came to be guys i didn't know at the time what this
shit was gonna be bro but i understood ip and i understood digital ownership and i remember going to disney world
and in disney world if you guys pay attention there's an art gallery in disney world where
other artists from disney that work full-time they get highlighted so when kid jet explained
to me blockchain technology at panera bread and ip which you guys know it costs an arm and a leg
to use Disney IP. If you look at what a board it costs or any of these IPs costs,
you see where I'm getting that. You see how I'm connecting the dots. I'm going to bring people up.
So Post, and it's crazy. He's like, yo, you should join join the discord i didn't know anything about wallets i didn't know
anything about converting eef into usd like my take on crypto was like people were telling me
that it was fugazi or some shit and i kind of wish i didn't fucking listen to them because
i would have fucking got bitcoin and a bunch of shit earlier on, but it's all good. Anyways, I'm telling you guys this story
because everything is a sequence of events. I get put in that discord. I start asking people,
like, I'm telling you, I'm giving you guys the blueprint right now. I start asking people,
hey guys, this is what I do. I create art. I do this. Is it okay? I always ask people, because remember,
it's their IP. Is it okay if I do a background or something for your ape? And instead of getting a
no, instead of being like, nah, man, we're cool. We don't need that art shit. These fucking apes,
bro, were like, bro, please do a background for me. So I did one, and I'm telling you, it was all like for the love,
and I'm in my studio efficiency, my tiny ass studio efficiency, the wifey knows what I'm
talking about, with our two cats, and I'm in between calls on my phone doing backgrounds for the apes from there we spend thanksgiving we go to disney world
i i watched the gary v interview where he's talking about goons and again it's not just
the apes it's all these different projects with ips and i'm there and i'm like holy shit this is
this is great for artists artists are going to be able to collaborate with projects
and then they can put out their original work.
And it's like, it's a win-win any way that you look at it.
And I asked again in the Discord, I go, guys,
or I asked the main person running the Discord,
I'm telling you guys this story.
This is crazy.
I asked the guy and I go, hey, is it okay if I, because he was throwing an
event, the person who ran the Discord for Art Basel, he was throwing an event for the Apes.
And I was like, hey, would it be cool if I do some live paintings there? He goes, of course.
How much do you charge? And I gave him a number. And I'm thinking these motherfuckers are going
to say no. He's like, no, we're going to do it. And then he goes and he makes a post on the Discord.
And we are in Orlando, Florida, in our hotel room.
And Christine can vouch for me on this one.
I get like one sale, two sales, three sales, five sales, six sales.
And started getting like 10.
And Christine's like, chill chill chill chill chill
how are you gonna paint these canvases you only got like two weeks for art basil how are you gonna
do this i go baby i don't know how but we're going to figure it out we're going to figure it out
so we stopped at 16 it was like i'm telling you guys like the most money I've ever seen in my life.
I, I, yeah, it was crazy. It was crazy. And it was motherfuckers supporting the art, you know,
and long story short, our lives changed after that. We've been in the space since 2021.
Um, and I just want to say thank you guys, everyone for being here. Um, I love you all in a few minutes, a few minutes.
We are dropping the rock soul certified mint on blever.
Um, our lives changed because of web three.
We're eternally grateful.
We're good to go.
First come first serve.
Good to go.
Good luck to everybody. Um, and, uh, yeah, man, I're good to go. First come, first serve. Good to go. Good luck to everybody.
And yeah, man, I got Mac up here. I got two times. Anyone else want to come up and chop it up?
You guys are more than welcome. Anyone got questions, we can speak on what we got cooking
more or less, but a lot of it will be redacted. But I tell people like this, whatever you guys seen that we've done in the past, just apply that logic to it.
And we've delivered every single time.
So we're just happy to be here two times.
What's up, man?
Hey, real quick, I just wanted to say, first of all, everybody, everything's going to be all right.
Everything's gonna be alright.
Other than that,
I'm kind of freaking out a little because
I gave you a minting
like a new wallet
and it's loaded with the ape
and all that, but it's
not showing up like the ape is.
The money's there.
I just wanted to, I didn't know
like if there was a way I could check it or something like that
if not i'll have to i don't know what i'm gonna do but the apes in there i've already i put it
in days ago and it's just been chilling and then i went and checked out maybe maybe because
blerver isn't open yet it's not showing it i don don't know. It's saying, oops, we don't see any
coins in this wallet, but
it has, you know, like 300
ape in it.
Hold on. I think
Christine's trying to talk, but
the wifey was trying to talk.
She's going to help you out. Don't worry. It's going to
be okay. She's going to guide you to the
promised land. Hold on. I think she's
coming up right now. Hold on a second. Let me bring her up. We're going to guide you to the promised land. Hold on, I think she's coming up right now.
Hold on a second.
Let me bring her up.
We're going to be Gucci, bro.
You're going to be situated right now.
I was literally talking, and for some reason, I got kicked out from being a speaker.
But it's okay.
So as I was saying, everything's going to be fine.
When you go on Blubber, sometimes it'll say ETH on the top or whatever it is that you
recently used, but
as soon as you try to
mint, it'll automatically switch you to
the ApeShane network.
The reason why you're not seeing it is because
you're currently connected to Blubber
and you have to go to
the Manage Permissions, and
instead of Ethereum, you need to make sure that you
just click if you just click only ape chain then it will show up um it's because you have ethereum
ape chain solana whatever it is that they have there you if you have all those clicked they're
just going to show you the main one which is eef but all of them should work so obviously ape on ape chain is what you need yeah so i have a bunny
chain and it's basically the only thing i have selected in my metamask wallet you're saying on
blerver i have to select it as well that's just i just want to get that clear yeah so as soon as you
when you when you click mint it'll automatically just accept that uh it'll automatically show the Ape.
I don't know why it does that, but I don't know the easy way to show it.
I know on desktop, I just go to my MetaMask or whatever,
and I change the permissions to allow it so I can see Ape on the right-hand corner.
But I don't know how to do it on mobile exactly.
I'll work on it.
I get a little bit of time.
And like I said, everyone else, it'll be okay.
I was told that by a verified source.
As long as the ape is in the ape chain network, you are stuck.
All right.
Yo, Machiavelli was goody.
There's not a GTD on that list. There's Bliver Pass, then First Come, First Serve, then Public.
There is no GTD.
Yes, there is. It's the first phase.
But I'm looking at it right now.
There's only Bliver Pass, First Come, First Serve, and Public.
It says Bliver Pass GTD, right?
No, it just says Bliver Pass.
There is no...
My wallet's not linked to that because I don't have a Bliver Pass, so I'm not able to vent on that.
It'll change, though, because I have GTD.
It doesn't say it, but it's with the Bliver Pass.
It said it yesterday when it changed from
eth to eight well i don't have any issues on my network or anything like i'm connected to the
side and i'm on my right thing like i've been doing this for a long time but like i'm just
telling you all right now my wallet's not in that on the blubber pass it's i'm not going to be able
to mint until first come first serve and rock you better put my shit on the blemper pass.
I think, are you on E? It's getting spicy.
It should work, Mecca Belly.
I'll check right now.
I'm checking to see if your wallet is available.
You want me to send my address real quick that I'm minting off of?
If you didn't send me the address you're minting off of and you send me a different address.
No, no, no.
I'm using my certified
wallet. You know what I'm saying?
Okay, send me that
and then I'll check and make sure that's the one
that's on there.
Yeah, Christy, I don't want to bug you, but
do you want me to send you? It's the same wallet
I sent originally.
You want me to send you mine?
Okay, is there a purple lock?
Do you guys see that you're eligible?
Well, I got to go back to it.
But yeah, I believe he's right.
Mine's blank.
I sent you the screenshot.
The screenshot says it looked purple.
When you sent me the screenshot, it says that you're eligible.
Okay, so it must be my phone.
Okay, let me check everybody hold on
Right I came in here trying to spread the word rock and then I'm the one freaking out the most
Sorry, don't worry, guys.
This is a good thing because we're excited.
I'm glad we got all this.
We're going to get the situation.
We're going to get the situation.
Spooky's up here.
I already know what he wants.
He wants to snipe all the white and grayscale monochromatics.
He's trying to snipe y'all.
Pay attention.
Pay attention. Yo, deadass, I hope I get one of grayscale monochromatics. He's trying to snipe y'all. Pay attention, pay attention.
Yo, deadass, I hope I get one of grayscale.
Just because a lot of people don't see that side of your art, you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, man.
You guys ever seen the movie Pleasantville?
I don't know if
it derived from that, but I always thought
that movie was pretty cool.
You guys ever seen it? It's like a movie where.
That's a dope ass movie.
Everything like these two kids get like,
they get teleported into like another world and the whole world's like in the
1950s and stuff and everything's black and white and everyone's very like,
you know, structure and proper.
And like, like, you know, people are very like, you know, meticulous. And then like, because these know people are very like you know meticulous and then like
because these two people are from the real world they start like changing the way everyone thinks
and it's kind of crazy but there's parts where like they start teaching people how to do art
and then what ends up happening is like they they turn from like black and white and start having
like colors and then people are painting murals and
feeling emotions and shit.
It's a fucking great movie, guys.
You should check it out. It's called Pleasantville.
But yeah, man, guys.
It's crazy, bro.
I can feel
the FOMO up here, man. It's crazy.
I can hear it in Mac's voice.
I can hear it in G's voice. The FOMO
is crazy. I do have a purple lock. I can hear it in Mac's voice. I can hear it in G's voice. The FOMO is crazy.
Mac, hit me up.
I do have a purple lock.
I don't have a bliver pass, but I have a purple unlock.
It looks like I'm good to go to mint at least 122.
It says unlimited on mine.
It's crazy.
Thank you, Christy.
I don't know what you did, but I'm here for it.
I'm ready.
We're cooking, man.
We're cooking.
We're cooking the customer service.
That's why we started.
We wanted a strong
collection of 500 people
so that me and Christine, we can,
me and the wife, we can figure out exactly
where we're going to go on this battleship.
Right now, we are formulating
the Rock Soul Army. You know what I'm
saying? This is the beginning of it, guys.
Yo, we bought in this
Bliver Pass mint right here. We minted out on
the first go, and then we hit in secondary. Sheesh! right here We minting out on the first go And then we hitting secondary

Did you wake up today, guys?
Did you go to the mirror?
Did you look at yourself in the mirror?
Did you tell yourself that it's going to be okay?
Guys, this is just the beginning.
This is an art collection, but we're going to put more art on top of the art. It's going to be like a fucking big ass burger of fucking flavor and shit. Like,
it's going to be amazing. Trust me. Trust me. Trust me. I got people. I got people requesting up. Don't worry. It's going to be okay. We're cooking. We're cooking. Look, look, man, they put
me on a felony war and they're like, Hey, we need you to go out, pick this dude up. And I'm like, look, chill out.
I need at least 40 minutes before I do anything.
So I got everything on hold right now.
I got no call.
That's the matrix.
Nothing pending.
That's the matrix.
Remember, Neil got the call.
And Neil didn't believe it at first.
He was like, what are you talking about?
What do you mean the agents are on the floor?
They're trying to get me.
What the hell do you mean?
He's like, dude, if you don't jump.
And remember, he didn't jump the first time.
He didn't do it the first time and they got him.
They fucking got him, bro.
So this we're not listening. You're doing this and you're a rebel right now, bro.

like this is something that again we've been working on since 2021 we didn't even know like
we knew that we wanted to put out a project we wanted to do stuff um it's just about you know
timing and everything and but we But we're super grateful.
I think the word today is fortunate.
We're very fortunate to have all you guys supporting us.
And, you know, we're just taking everything, like, you know, one day at a time.
And, yeah, there's just so much to be thankful for.
But, yeah, man, thank you for coming through.
Guys, when it comes to the Mint, like, we know it's a small curated collection,
and we did the best that we could while reaching out to everyone. But real talk, the support is
real. We appreciate every single one of you. Like I said, we have other things in the works. So the
chat that we created, we took notes. We saw who was supporting us we have you know things uh planned down the line
but you know just in case you know don't freak out it's gonna be okay but we just we appreciate
every single one of y'all like it really does mean a lot i'm gonna go over to my boy hype
what's good he hype aqua on top you know what time it is let's go
yo yo gm brother um congrats on everything today uh good luck on the mint uh check your dms
uh but yeah what's going on brother i see you got a good room two two hours of sleep bro two hours
of sleep i tried i i tried my best not like to get right you know when you meditate and you're
just like bro like i'm trying to like shut down my thoughts and not think about
stuff like it didn't work and then we had a little bit of coffee i'm gonna check the dms now um
appreciate you man yeah of course brother like i said i'm here i'm here to support
and uh like i said i'm sure everybody in this room is here to support you so
good luck i wouldn't stress it you, congrats to you and Chrissy.
And yeah, looking forward to seeing what I get.
Oh, yeah, absolutely, man.
No, we appreciate you, man.
Shout out to the robots, World of Tings, Bubble Gun Gang.
Yeah, just check your thing.
We fixed it for you, bro.
You're good to go.
Guys, this is crazy.
This is crazy. I just, I'm sorry I didn't drop.
I just wanted to drop in a
point um so um before like the the background you made so i've never really really like uh
loved the pfp enough to make uh you know you make uh you like uh kind of get it printed out and put
it into a frame but because of this background
i swear i swear to god i'm gonna get my pfp printed out in acrylic and like put it on my wall
it's because of your your background so i'm doing that man that's love i just wanted to add that
that was the that see that was the point man when we started like when i started doing the
backgrounds you know it's it's really for people just to create more art out of it.
So when you guys do mint this, if you want to put your PFP behind it or have me make a custom one for you, like I'll be more than happy to do that for the community. And again, you guys can make
prints if you want to make stickers. I've seen people make stickers and put them all over the
world. It's just really to motivate and to you know keep the culture and everything moving forward
here in the space so yeah man we're just again we're super honored to be here i know i probably
sound like a broken record saying the same thing but like we're very appreciative and um yeah man
the art is to make more art and uh to inspire people and uh yeah we're here
for real man and I really appreciate you
taking the time to make all these
you know like
you did this for each and everyone
who contacted you on the group
and you made these backgrounds
and the fact that you made
I'm seeing all the different PFPs everybody has
and I can see the personal touch
you've given to the people
with the type of PFP they've given to the people with the type
of PFP they have. I saw the one with Shanana I think and then he has a grayscale one and then
it goes so well with his board ape and then I have my trencher and the background kind of matches
with the trippy vibe. So you know you like everyone can definitely see the kind of efforts
you're putting into this you know in the background all the time you're giving to make all these things.
So this is what really sold me to your Mint.
Because, like, whenever, like, I'm kind of new to NFTs, like, not like OG 2021, but like kind of near 2024.
So for me to have, get really excited for art without any kind of like, you know, this, that, this is the roadmap,
this is the utility. But for me, like coming from me personally, this is really good, man. I mean,
this really sparked something in me. I'm really happy. I'm definitely going to get this printed
out and put in my wall, inside my room, for sure. You're going to see that very soon. Thank you.
No, it's all love, man. Greatly love man greatly appreciate it yo guys like it's been
super overwhelming you know like we we made a decision i think almost two or three weeks ago
we're like hey we're gonna drop something but um i don't know man like i feel like you know
ape chain came out like a year ago um the space was you know like there's amazing communities
on ape chain but to be honest like the space was always heading to, like there's amazing communities on Ape Chain.
But to be honest, like the space was always heading to a place where it's like, OK, where are we going and how are things going to look?
And one thing I started realizing is like, I don't know, guys, Ape Chain has been very like what I mean by everybody moving in the same direction.
It's everything that's like happening now.
Like people just working on what they got, you know.
You know, projects like G's, Token Gators, freaking robots with hype.
Everything that's happening right now.
All these things that we just paid attention.
We paid attention to the founders.
We paid attention to the why.
You know, why are people still here?
And we were like, okay, like, why not? You know, for us, why not?
Because, you know, on the back end, we've done a lot of stuff.
You know, I minted out in 20, not minted out, but I minted a small curated collection as well of like my characters and that was cool you know uh but
we wanted to just see like what would it be like for us to have a community and to get the support
and like i said it's been overwhelming we're eternally grateful uh we're a few minutes away
we're like 30 minutes away um but yeah man yo who's big what What's up, brother? How's everything? Yo, blessings, kings and queens, man.
Bro, I'm in the truck.
I had to pop in.
Bro, I can't miss this.
I wanted to come support you and your wife, man, everything you're doing.
Man, that's her right there on the coast, right?
I got to give her a follow.
I got to give her a follow after meeting you guys in Miami, man.
It was a beautiful, beautiful time.
But, yeah, man, you probably can hear my truck.
But, yeah, bro, I'm grinding. I'm definitely going to be minting as many as possible. So guys, you better not miss out because I need them all. um another beautiful thing is like everyone here is from different walks of life um and a lot of
people here um support each other and you know i i came from art i came from graffiti it can be very
pvp and uh very like competitive and uh you know when i started teaching music and art therapy
it gave me the kind of like emotional intelligence to
create the patterns that you guys see today, you know? And yeah, fast forward, you know,
doing backgrounds for you guys, for everybody here and releasing this project, even all the
projects that are on Ape Chain, like just killing it, excited for Ape Fest. Yeah, man, it's tough to talk about everything
because it's, you know, we're still telling the story, you know, but we wanted to have
creative control. And the reason for that is, you know, we see us building like a bigger team and
collaborating with, you know, projects and stuff like down the line.
But we needed people to kind of see like the perspective of Rock Soul or
Christy Love, you know, like she, you know, when you think about Rock Soul,
it's like Christina is Rock Soul, you know, and she's helped me out so far.
Like if you guys like, you know, like if you guys want to follow you,
you can follow her and stuff like that.
But I'm telling you guys like she is the gem.
She is the ace in the deck the the the queen pin and um and like i
said man behind every strong man is a strong woman and i'm very blessed and lucky to have her uh in
this journey and one of the reasons why i create art every day you know so like yeah i just wanted
to give give the wife you the roses she does a a lot for me and, and, and yeah, man, we're just super grateful, man.
Hey Rock, I changed that in my PMP, bro.
I went ahead and put the Rock Soul background DJ and tunes on for the OG vibes, baby.
Put the eight down just for a second, You know, get this mint party going.
Let's ride, baby.
Let's ride.

Give me a second, y'all. I'm outside.
Yo, McFly just came
in here to talk shit to me because I'm
not coming to New York tonight.
Oh, yeah. You're not safe,
Luke. Don't go nowhere. That's rough.
That's rough, y'all.
That's rough, man. Pause. Pause. Damn, that's crazy.
Y'all, listen, though. It's a blessing, bro.
You know, happy to be here with y'all. Grateful to still be alive.
You know, another year, thank God. And I'm honored, bro,
to have my man Rock Soul drop a collection on my birthday
you know uh that's super dope and i definitely can't wait to make my background and uh you know
utilize it with a bunch of my different nfts i think that shit is going to be fire seeing a bunch
of uh rock soul backgrounds on a timeline and uh you know i'm a big fan of the artwork so
i'm looking forward to uh you to having my timeline flooded with a bunch
of your artwork pieces.
What I love, bro, I'm just here to tap in
and support.
Happy birthday, King.
Yeah, I appreciate you, bro.
Happy birthday, McFly.
Yo, listen, y'all motherfuckers better rally up an encore
and all sing me happy birthday.
I'll wait for it.
We'll schedule a time. I got the beat already loaded up, man. We're going to do the happy birthday. I'll wait for it. We'll schedule a time.
I got the beat already loaded up, man.
We're going to do the happy birthday song.
Brother, we're going to be outside for the rest of our lives.
Like, this is, you know, it's going to be rock raw soon.
I know Baca wanted the CA, but, you know, in due time.
I told everybody Baca's going to have to break stuff if it's going to go down like that.
He's going to have to break stuff. If it's going to go down like that, he's going to have to break stuff. Um, guys, this is crazy. It's crazy. Cause it's
only been like, what a few weeks that we put, like, we like started like pushing this thing
out. And now it's like, wow. Like look at everyone, bro. And, and it's crazy too, man,
because it's so many different PFPs, so many different communities, bro. Like a lot of
sweat equity, a lot of love went into this. Each guys, each background is, is really is a one of
one. Like I really did, uh, digitally hand painted and it came from, uh, a lot of good days, a lot of
bad days. It's just like, just perseverance, you know what I'm saying? Like,
it is hard to create, especially on bad days, because a lot of the stuff that makes me happy,
you know, isn't here anymore. Like for those people, I don't know, like my own man,
you know, he passed a few months ago. And, you know, I had to keep moving and keep doing stuff. Like I'm not the type of person
that is going to be, um, you know, like stuck in wallow and stuff like that. And I just feel like
life is very precious. Life is very short. Like the day, that day was crazy, man. It was a very
crazy day. And, you know, and time, you know, obviously time heals,
but the art really helped me. The, you know, the canvases that I got commissioned for,
the murals that I painted, like it's brush. It's not easy, like painting on a wall and thinking
about life, you know what I'm saying? Like, and then, and that's kind of why like the project is
like, it's very like dear to us too you know what i'm
saying like it's it's for like everyone that that helped us get to like where we're at you know
so yeah man i saw that my dog uh i think he stepped down but yeah man um it's just a beautiful thing
man i think art and life uh kind of go hand in hand. And when you're able to channel your energy
and channel pain and create beautiful things out of it, that's kind of like a way of touching
grass. You know what I'm saying? So I know a lot of people here, we're kind of here in the space
24-7. We could also be like desensitized to a lot of stuff. But it's okay.
You know what I'm saying?
It's okay to kind of take a step back and reflect on things.
And that's how I've been able to do it.
I'm human just like everyone else here.
Our families, we're all human.
But that's what makes the art.
I think that's one of the things that resonates with people.
And it's also a different perspective.
Because a lot of people are used to my stained glass patterns and I in this collection there's
there's 16 different categories you know like I mentioned there's the monochromatic category
there's a glitch category there's portals pathways just different things that are going to cause conversations. Art is about conversation.
It's about perspective. Not my perspective, but everyone, everyone's perspective. It's an open
dialogue. And remember, when you have the art, you guys seen everything that I've done online,
content creating. If you guys want, you can go to my IG or go to my website you guys see all the work that me and
Christine have done the last four years it's you know it's the body of work but
people that connect the dots know that we're gonna be you know cooking up
something special but give me a second I'm gonna bring up some more people
upstage yo in the meantime in, Luke, get your wallet ready.
I will accept three backgrounds for you not being out here and participating on my birthday.
Just want to say thank you in advance.
Appreciate you.
You know what's crazy work is my birthday was less than seven days ago.

So blessings to you, McFly. mcfly blessings to the room for sure and big ups to life let's live and let's celebrate
man i'm i'm excited i woke up i was nervous i was like i forgot oh shit he texted me and everything
oh no i was i was crying i was like i gotta text him my hands was trembling i was like
it's too late he's like nah bro you good we got you i was like, is it too vague? He's like, nah, bro, you good. We got you. I was like, ah, shit.
But I was nervous as hell.
I ain't gonna lie.
Brother, I had a few of those texts and calls yesterday.
People were like, yo, I'm so sorry.
I'm like, yo, guys, the men's tomorrow.
He's like, yo, am I on the list?
I'm like, you're good.
You're good.
Like I said, me and Christine, we've been taking notes.
We've been paying attention.
This is a curated art collection, but we do plan on building you know more cool stuff down the line
um you know dot dot dot redacted can you know don't want to say too much because i rather you
know element of surprise and and also like we want to give back to the people that that are
early here to support us so yeah guys it's been, it's been a crazy-ass journey, man.
I know I've done, like, digital backgrounds for a lot of y'all, physical canvases.
Cam got a freaking Rock Soul Astronaut Canvas from Gary V's NFT collection.
That shit was crazy.
He got that raffle to him.
And I remembered I was painting the uh
other block mural and the wifey came up to me she's like yo look at this video this is cam
winning the raffle look at his face look at it look how happy this man is and i'm just like
okay that's that's what that's my why like the the why is very important here, guys? Because it's going to keep you sticking around, not the floor prize.
Not speculation, you know?
Yeah, your art hangs up in my fireplace room, bro.
My grandkids look at it.
My nieces and nephews, they talk about it, ask about it.
We take family pictures in front of it.
It's like a staple in my house, bro.
You live here, bro.
Your presence is is here like
you know i'm saying your art gives life to my house you know what i mean i got your hats around
i got your art up on the walls like my family knows you you know what i mean like you are part
of us bro like so we appreciate and respect everything you do bro and christy yeah she's on
the she's on the back end doing the clerical work right now.
Baby, do you want to say anything to the crowd?
Because I know that they want to hear from the queen herself.
So, guys, don't worry.
So, just so everyone is aware, originally it said Blubber Pass,
but it was supposed to be just gtd so there was some
confusion thinking that um all blubber pass had a gtd but it wasn't like that so that's what i'm
handling behind the scenes but we are um very excited for everybody on here if um if you're in
our chat and you know just kind of like check. Make sure your wallets are good.
Everything should be good now.
If not, then just DM me and let me know what's going on.
We got this.
Everyone breathe.
If the mint goes quick for whatever reason.
Again, guys, we don't know who's max minting or not.
It could go either way but i feel like we
did as well as best as we can to make it fair for everybody um to be able to mint
and um yeah i think everything will be okay
there you go working behind the scenes see she puts out the fires all the time guys i noticed that
our one of our really good friends kb she just joined the stage yo kb what's goody what's good
yo what's up i'm trying to connect to my metamask and it's just not even working
i can't when's the last time you used your metamask fam
well i've been i have another one but it's just i've been
doing test and that shit on it so like i don't i don't know if i have like real money on there
no you're good dude i don't know if you remember but remember when i showed you the video
for the background collection i think it was like a year or two ago and i was like
i'm gonna post up this video what do you think yeah i remember now we're here that's just crazy congrats i know what the why won't i'm annoyed
i hate crypto sometimes
why wouldn't it work it's because of the labubus you gotta get you you gotta freaking smash the
on the meta mass and it'll activate the uh it's saying it that's i've never seen this like it
says i can't connect to my ethereum mainnet wallet i'm like bro i don't like what how many
send this to you yeah send it to christine she'll she'll walk you through it
no it's not even like it's just straight up metamask like metamask like won't let me like
connect because i'm trying to figure out which wallet to like because i like which wallet has
like money but like for what reason this wallet won't let me connect i've never seen this before
but whatever i'll figure it out how um you guys excited you guys minting in like what 15 minutes bro this is our first time everyone coming on being like yo
the network this like no we're super excited we're just uh you know we we this is why we kind of
wanted it to be a more curated collection because the bigger things get the more of like you know
uh team and people involved and stuff like that.
And I'd rather like me and the wife, we have like creative control over that and stuff.
But, um, no, it's, it's, uh, it's, it's been dope. Uh, you know, like it was kind of like
a temperature test for us where we're just like, okay, like how much work did we put in
and what does it equate to? And, um, um and it is it is a tangible and i feel like
it's extremely tangible and uh it's just been even new people i don't know who we are it's you know
in this space one thing i can tell everyone is you have to constantly reintroduce yourself because
there's always new people coming in and you want to give them a reason to stay.
And that's one thing that we've been working hard towards, just physical items,
digital art and tangible results and deliverables.
I know that sounds very business coming from an artist, but that's kind of where we come from.
I come from a sales background and and i love creating art so just
bringing both of those worlds together um and web3 you know you get where you get here you know
but uh kb it means a lot to have your support you know you've known us since the very beginning and
stuff like that you've you've you've worked with us in different iro events that we've done and
you know you've always been very professional.

So I dropped it down to two, and it worked, and then I had to mint the third one.
I don't care.
That's no big deal.
But you said they instantly show up in your Magic Eden?
Yeah, they instantly show up.
They're instant revealed, guys.
So if you go to Rock Soul Certified, you'll see it.
They're instantly revealed.
All right, all right, because I didn't see it in my like actual wallet in magic eating, but yeah, I'll check it out
Yes, look up rocks will certify you'll see they're instantly revealing this is crazy guys. It's just crazy art on the blockchain
you know guys i'm really considerate here um i'm not gonna max mint to give public an opportunity
um but if you guys don't take the opportunity i'll just buy the rest in public
wow i gave you i love you guys i love so much. Yo, we're doing customer service. Yeah, I don't sell shit.
You know what I'm saying?

Hello, hello, hello. I wanted to say hi and I'm testing out the quality of this new iPhone because my old phone sucked. So I wanted to know if I sound any different. I was also tired of the shitty internet I was getting on my sounds clean. It sounds good. That's good.
I guess it's worth the $299 trading upgrade.
But good morning.
Happy weekend.
What are you guys up to?
We are minting Roxo Certified, my first Genesis collection on Ape Chain.
And we're doing both customer service on the back end. We're putting on fires.
And people are minting, and they're showing us what they got.
It's like Pokemon cards and stuff.
I'm so out of the loop.
That's fucking amazing.
I've known you for a long time and the stuff that you've created.
So this is nice.
Is it like your artistic stuff that I'm used to seeing?
Is it like that type of art, the NFTs?
So it's 500 one- one custom backgrounds and um it's uh i started
creating these backgrounds since 2021 started on the iphone and then moved on to the ipad
uh and i mean everyone you know knows me or is getting to know me for the stained glass patterns
that i've done to everyone's pfps but this was the opportunity to kind of reverse reverse engineer that that train of thought of just creating 16 different
categories of art styles and anyone that knows that what we've done since 2021 from the murals
to canvases to IRL events to artists workshops we plan on doing like a lot more creative stuff with with this
collection and expanding you know the big you know bigger things um but yeah we're super grateful for
anyone that's been showing us love anyone that we've done a background for um and if you mint
the collection guys you can make prints of the artwork uh you can you know i've seen people make
stickers and put them all over the world.
You can put your PFP in front of it.
You know, my thing was to enhance the backgrounds
when I first started for the different collections here
on ETH and on Ape Chain, all the different networks.
And just like I said, we're eternally honored to be here.
And, you know, and that's the project, Rock Salt Certified.
And we're minting right now on Ape Chain.
You can max mint three if you're on GTD or first come, first serve.
What's the price?
It's $38,800.
I'm in there.
You're in there?
Once I get home, I'm in.
I just want to jump in on you and be like, this is nice.
Like I said, I've known you for a while.
And it's nice that you're putting more of your work not only on the blockchain but you're putting it on ape chain yes community that's been i'll be
been behind you for a long time so yeah super dope man congratulations and i like the backgrounds i
see them in the crowd thank you i've seen what that what it kind of looks like means a lot man
like i said guys the love means a lot me and the wife we worked really hard behind the scenes
we were almost not thinking about putting out a project i remember showing the artwork to
kb like almost two years ago and we we needed like we we saw the track record that ape chain
had and the communities that were being consistent and the the morals and the pillars all these
things and we were we took all that stuff into consideration and we're like fuck it we're just
gonna put it out and we appreciate everybody and we're just gonna put it out and uh we we appreciate everybody and we're we're gonna keep putting stuff out so like that's always love you know
thank you guys thank you thank you shiva let's go yeah definitely as soon as i get home and
in my wallet i'll definitely take a look at some of the backgrounds you know me i'm probably gonna
snipe something i really like but yeah good luck to you i'm very sure it'll do really well and if
you guys don't know rock you definitely gotta check out some of his stuff. You still have to make me a painting
We were overdue. Oh, yeah, it was supposed to be originally a moon bird
But then I got a board ape so he might as well just do the board ape at this point
But let me know once you get out of this craziness
Guys we're going to Vegas so you guys get to meet us too and yeah, it's gonna be dope
But yeah, she would thank you so much, man
Yo, play plates. I've been pronounces from lady mama original. How's it going? How's everything? too and yeah it's gonna be dope but yeah she would thank you so much man uh yo uh plate uh
plates i'm gonna pronounce this wrong plating mama original how's it going how's everything
hi rock yes it's plating mama um i was all um excited to mint and there's something wrong with
my metamask i actually sent you a dm i don't know if you would be willing to mint for me if i send
the ape to a wallet of your choice if you have that power because i really don't know if you would be willing to mint for me if i send the ape to a wallet of
your choice if you have that power because i really don't want to miss it i should send you
a screenshot i somehow um i had first come first serve originally and it even showed that i have
guaranteed so um i was hoping to mint but it's not working. Somebody said I have to delete my MetaMask app and reinstall it,
but I don't have my seed phase.
I'm at work.
No, no, I completely understand.
If you DM Christy Love on the back end,
she'll be more than happy to help you out.
And guys, remember, I know this is a small collection and stuff.
Everybody wants to mint.
But actually, she's going to hop on real quick.
She's going to help you guys out.
Yeah, guys. Right now, I'm talking with blerver right now trying to get
this sorted out um it's they tested it on metamask mobile it seems to be working fine but i know that
you guys are having issues obviously if you delete metamask they're gonna you're gonna need
your seed face to go back in um so one thing that you can do before you do that is to see if your app
needs to be updated. You have to see what wallet and what device is it because sometimes it depends
like if you're trying to go on MetaMask it's better if you open the browser while you're in
MetaMask to be able to mint. If not, I would try
to find some access to like a computer that has the extension already with your wallet. Obviously,
if you're at work, it's going to be a little difficult. But yeah, I'm trying to see if there's
a workaround because I know a couple people are having issues with their MetaMask right now.
It seems to be a MetaMask only issue. I haven't seen anybody else with any other wallet
having issues. So I'm trying to see if I can find a workaround as quickly as possible. Sorry,
guys, that you guys are having this issue. Yeah, so I got that error message too. We were saying
that I wasn't able to do it. And that's what I had to do. I ended up having, but I'm at home,
thank goodness. So I had access to my C phrase, but I had to de-install it off my phone take the app off my phone go to the app store reinstall it
put my seed phrase back in and then I was able to just mint like normally and I should have checked
the update because I have not updated my metamask in a while so that may have you know that may have
done you know fix the bug or whatever
so i should have tried that so if anyone else is getting that issue uh you know definitely try to
see if you can just go into the app store and update your apps um or if that fixes it you know
share let everybody know you know because like you said not everybody is at home and has access
to receive phrases to to reinstall that but yeah i I was panicking too. I was like, what? No, Christy, help.
But yeah, I just ended up having to delete and reinstall.
So in my case, there is no update available in MetaMask
in the App Store.
And I cleared all the privacy data.
I cleared all the browser data.
I cleared everything.
I removed all connections. I closed the app. I cleared all the browser data i cleared everything i removed all connections
i closed the app i reopened the app um there yeah there's no update there's no nothing so
yeah nothing i can do like and i i'm doing it from a mobile device uh and i cannot access a computer
because i obviously don't have this Z-Race. So I
need, like, if I know
that they're going to be gone, and
I need somebody to mint for me.
So you said to DM
Who do I DM?
She's not in the space
right now.
Yeah, it's glitching. It's not showing you, Christy. She's going to come up right now. She's going to come up right now oh i'm yeah it's glitching it's not showing you christy
she's gonna come up right now don't she's gonna come up right now don't worry well guys this is
awesome like no for real like i'm sorry for the back end stuff but like this is crazy that everyone
is dope listen this is just the beginning guys too so like we take notes of everyone that's been
supporting we're going to be doing a lot more different things that are going to be interactive and really cool for
people to be a part of so i know everyone's yeah we still have a couple more minutes too so yeah
for gtd let's go let's go a lot of people trying to Max minted I max minted Let's go
Yo I got some heat rock

I don't want to miss it can you please save three for me
Because I feel like there's only eight minutes left
I don't want to miss it
Right now Christy's working on the back end.
Are getting better.
Try logging in.
On your...
There's nothing I can do
except send you Ape right now.
Give me a wallet.
I'll send you the Ape and the Mint for me
because the only solution is to delete my MetaMask.
I don't have my seed phrase,
but I have the ability to send money.
Let me see.
One second.
We're trying to see what we can do to help out.
Can you switch wallet addresses or not?
Like another wallet?
Do you have another wallet?
It's my MetaMask.
It's my MetaMask.
I'm at work.
I have my mobile device and I have MetaMask. I'm at work. I have my mobile device, and I have MetaMask.
What other wallet could I use?
You said another browser?
What do you mean another browser?
So you only have your phone?
Yeah, I only have my phone.
Yeah, that sucks.
Can you install another MetaMask on your phone while you have an app on there?
Like, you know what I mean?
Like, oh, no, you wouldn't be able to access that.
Never mind.
I was trying to brainstorm through it.
Yeah, you should get a Rabi wallet.
It's way better than MetaMask.
Patty, you can just send it to me.
I'll mint it for you really quick.
You have access to Mint 3 more because it's max three per wallet.
I have two.
I only minted one.
I want to mint three.
And I actually promised my community that I'm going to give one away.
We'll take care of it.
KB, if you can, that will help.
Thank you, KB.
Yo, you guys are the best.
We love you guys.
Bro, why are y'all still using metamask what is this we're the raby we're in the trenches bro
come on i'm kidding i'm kidding i'm a coinbase i'm a coinbase user
i'm a coinbase user so uh so don't listen to anything I say.
Yeah, don't listen to Spooky.
He got his name for a reason, y'all.
Yo, for real though, thank you guys.
This is beautiful. We're going to try to help everybody out the best way
that we can. I see a lot of people
requesting up. Hold on, let's see if you guys want you can rotate me because i'm just packing and i
gotta i gotta head out okay all right one second guys the hardest thing is gonna be figuring out
which background to use you know what i mean i'm gonna have to rotate them out every now and then geez these are fire
nah i'm good man i'm about to slap everything i own on that monochrome background i got
everything's getting that background uh i'm looking for more i think gilly hit on the other
uh monochrome rock i think there's only been two revealed. So, Rock, out of all the different ones you've done, like, what were a couple of your, like,
favorite, favorite ones, if that's a fair question. I know all your work is fire, but what were some of your
favorite ones that you like
to, you know, when you were designing them, or
whatever? Let me see.
I like the scribble, the ones with the
Lens. Lens is
dope, because it's kind of like the
type artwork.
I also like retro. Retro had like this very 80s vaporwave type vibe.
A lot of it just came from, you know, coming home from work, painting the murals or working on canvases or IRL vents and then, you know, watching TV shows, playing lo-fi music, just kind of like vibing out, you know?
And yeah, just creating like what came to mind. And a lot of them, like I went ham. So you could
tell detail-wise that I went ham on like different art techniques. And some of them, I went simple
because I felt like not every piece needed to be overwhelmed with technique.
Some of it just needed to be like simple.
So there's a balance and a duality with everything.
And yeah, a lot of different color palettes as well.
Yo, I have a question, guys.
Do we have any computer experts in the room?
Because I got a computer that I've only used for the other side.
Like, I literally don't do nothing else with it.
It's a brand new computer, and, like, it crashed on me or something.
Like, it's not hooking up.
It's weird.
Like, it just goes to this blank screen where, like, it has all the prompts,
and it gives you, like, setting, all this other stuff,
but, like, it won't actually log into Windows or anything.
I don't know if it's a dev or whatnot.
You might need to take it to a computer store or whatnot, fam.
Yeah, bro.
I'm trying to avoid that because I'm not going to go fix this shit.
I'm just going to go buy a new one.
Well, don't throw it away.
Don't throw it away.
No, I won't throw it away, but it'll just go in the corner until it gets thrown away.
And you booted in safe mode?
Like, it doesn't give me that option.
What kind of computer do you have?
It's an STG, Urgent Gaming Computer.
Normally, when you start booting up, if you hold the power key, the power button.
Oh, is that G telling me?
G, you're the last person to help me with computer, girl.
You have trouble every day on chain.
All right, guys.
That's different.
I used to build computers.
Don't disrespect her like that, man.
It's a joke, and I'm not disrespecting her hype.
I know Mac.
He's cool with it.
Thank you so much.
I love you.
No, I used to build computers. I had
a computer business,
tech support, and I would build custom
computers.
Gee, I will get on the line with you right now
here in a minute, girl.
There you go. And my nephew can help.
Yeah, y'all good. I mean,
nothing insults me
unless I'm in
one of those moods Did you get to
I was like the first
You got number one G
I think so
As soon as it said Mint I hit it
Because I was waiting with my cursor over
So where is it
Guy's weird
It says 91 That's that's weird you know because it was
nobody there but then again i can't see past that but i want to see how do you see others
i just see one background that's where i get stupid but yo hello hello Oh, by the way, I couldn't get in on any of my devices.
I cleared everything, did everything.
Finally, after crying a million times, I got through on my Mac.
With basically patience, I guess.
Did you get to Maxmin?
No, I still have two left, if anybody.
Oh, Grandma, Grandma, please.
If you can grab one. Grab that, please. If you can grab one.
If you can grab one, yeah.
I need three. So I need another person.
So grandma, I'll send you
eight for two
mints, but if somebody else can help
me because my metamask
it's allowing me to send money,
but it's just not allowing me to mint.
Hmm. Well, GTD ended, so It's allowing me to send money, but it's just not allowing me to mint.
Well, GTD ended, and we're at 4.35.
So I expect we will mint out in FCFS.
So hurry, hurry.
Please send me a million wallet.
Of course. Of course.
No problem.
Don't worry about it.
There was a bunch of people Saying that they had
Mints left
But I don't know them
Don't worry
KB that was going to help out
We'll help you all
Don't worry we'll figure it out
Okay KB will mint one for me

Wow. Bro, what's wrong with you? What wrong with you you seem to be like luke you didn't even think you were gonna mentor like luke no it's not that man it's
not that it's just that the you know the space hasn't been easy and um you know it's like what
you said like if you're gonna drop a project you need to have thick skin you know what i'm saying
and obviously we believe in ourselves like we're not delusional and we're not like we're humble It's like what you said, if you're going to drop a project, you need to have thick skin. You know what I'm saying?
Obviously, we believe in ourselves.
We're not delusional.
We're humble, but we know that we fucking put in the work.
We put in the sweat equity.
Like I said, the goal is to build and to create more art. I know everyone might be feeling a certain type of way because they minted. They minted out quickly.
Like, we tried our best to make it as fair as we can.
But we didn't want, like, we're going to, there's more stuff coming down the line, guys.
It doesn't just stop here.
You know what I'm saying?
Like I said, if people paid attention, and I know it sounds like a broken record, but they pay attention to the content that we've done, the art that we put out, the workshops, everything.
Like, just think about that and put that into context.
You'll see, like, those type of deliverables, you know?
But not financial advice, none of that shit.
Like, holy shit.
By the way, he's full of shit.
He's going to rub.
He's going to take all the mint funds and fucking we're never going to see him again.
I have proof because he hasn't been here for three years uh fucking working his ass off so i'm sure he's rugged
rita's mad because i i decided to do two backgrounds for him like three days ago
and i know i'm gonna go in the archive i know i did a background for you bro i know i did there's
no way and then uh honeybees uh geez wasn't you knowbee's G's was on Jenny Craig.

Like it's crazy.
Oh, my God.
Rita, can you give me a follow, please, so I can DM you?
Hey, Rocky, no one takes away the shock.
If you take a shot of a tequila, maybe some vodka, whatever you got in the cabinet,
it helps the shock factor just a little bit.
Bro, you're going to be in shock all day tomorrow when you start seeing the timeline flooding
with everybody's backgrounds bro okay it's
been a tough year guys i'll tell you that we needed this when it's not even about it minting
out is what it means for people to support artists my old man he's not here anymore i know he's very
proud bro he's super proud of you man i'm gonna i'm gonna cut in real quick and i'm gonna say
um this isn't just about supporting artist rock this is about supporting you you have been
you and chrissy have been probably one of the most like two two of the most like influential
like high-spirited amazing amazing, welcoming, just fantastic, giving people in this space.
Everyone knows you. Everyone loves you. Everyone is in awe of you. We're amazed by not just the
people that you are, but the talent that you have. And this is just showing the appreciation
that we have for you, for all that you've done for the
space for for the people for where you show up in spaces for others the way you show up
for others projects the way you have been gifting backgrounds to so many people
and like and and all the work that you've put in and i just want to acknowledge that yes
people still do support artists but this is celebrating you specifically and i wanted to
just like kind of double down on that because thank you, Jillian deserve all of this.
We need to double down on that because it is about rock soul.
You know what I'm saying?
I love all the artists, too.
You know what I'm saying?
But there's only one rock soul, period.
No big facts and a follow up on both.
You know, rock, this is about you and your missus, the queen.
You know what I mean?
Y'all two have given so much and put out so much blood, sweat, tears, equity into the space and into each and every one of us that are in this room.
You know, we all showed up to support both of y'all.
And just to try to give back a percent of the love that you've given over all the years
to the space and to every individual in here you know what i mean you never stop grinding you never
stop giving and you know this is just a small opportunity for us to show you a little love
back yeah we love artists yeah we love art yeah we love the space but you know what we love both
of y'all you know what i'm saying and this is just a way for us to just give a little bit of love back to you, brother.
traffic going into work and shit but um rock soul you know we uh we we told you how to
we we told you how to from day fucking one like legit you guys are loved you guys are seen
and you two are freaking brilliant this is what happens when good people last through
the the horse shit we've all been through in this space. Like, good ultimately prevails,
and this is proof of that.
Like, it comes back in tenfold.
And don't change for nothing.
You know, like, you know,
obviously don't take the funds and go to Disney and stuff.
Go to Disney.

more bangers i need you guys to start staking your fucking peanuts i need you guys to start
minting your robots i need you guys to fucking start supporting fucking eight games i need you bro like i'm telling you guys i know it's
overwhelming to support everyone but it it helps because you can't like i'm telling you i've done
it before where i try to paint murals i try to do stuff by myself it's not easy it fucking takes a
team and it takes time too bro like the vetting system and web 3 there is no hr there is any none
of that shit so it's hard
for artists and for people like to get recognized because of how pvp it is but i do i do see the
approach that everyone's doing on ape chain and i keep saying that people are moving in parallel
not not trying to get ahead of each other or behind each other none of that funny shit you
know i'm saying just moving in parallel you know and uh it doesn't matter like floor you know i'm saying what matters is
the type of shit that we're gonna put out you know that to me is real sustainability other than that
like oh i we're super grateful um i was supposed to be playing music and shit like i have a bunch
of original music that we've done but um yeah i'm just we're we're
super honored um holy fuck like this is real this is reality uh the wifey was gangster she's like
nah we're gonna fucking mint out and i'm like you know but what i fucking knew you were gonna
you got any any words sir no we're just super super grateful um that everybody minted
and for everybody that's been showing support i told them yeah of course i think you're gonna
mint out but you never really know until the day of you know what i'm saying um but uh we're just
extremely grateful um thank you to everyone here that has supported rock uh through and through
whether you guys minted a background or not i feel like everyone's certified anyways um especially if you've been here since the
beginning seeing his journey supporting buying a canvas any anything of that sort um we've always
appreciated it so we love you guys bro let's fucking go man rock so certified we fucking
minted out bro this, this is reality.
I told you guys, wake up.
Look in the mirror.
It's going to be okay.
This is literally just the beginning, guys.
Like, we're not going anywhere.
Yeah, we're not going anywhere.
Holy shit.
Holy shit.
Also, so people can know my love.
Now it's about me and my love for Rock and Christy.
Alex and i have
a sad beige apartment and we have a big ass fucking 40 by 30 rock soul painting in the middle
just just the show piece in our dining area where everybody who comes in our house fucking sees it
first and then we gush about rock soul on a constant and that's my flex okay thank you for listening my ted talk bye
let's go yo showbiz what's goody yo what's up rock gmgm bro um first off you know big
congratulations man i made it in the last two minutes of gtd to mint so i got in there i was
trying to see if i could mint some more but damn damn, that shit mended out quick, bro.
But yeah, man, big congratulations, man.
Thank you, bro.
Bro, no words.
I got marbles, man.
It's just crazy right now.
Usually, I got a whole script ready to go.
I don't know, bro.
I just, I create, me and the wife, we created art for four years.
What Christine does is art as well because she films and she captures content.
She not only highlights me, but she highlights everybody in the room.
So all the events that you guys seen, all the content that you guys seen online, it's all her.
And she does the clerical work and she sings.
We do this together as like
a power couple, you know? And our main thing is one thing I do want to say because this happened
and we did mint out, like we want to work with communities. We want to enhance. We want to just
add value. You know what I'm saying? It's not about trying to extract or whatnot. It's figuring
out how to make things work you know
however way that's possible and uh yeah man we're just we're super stoked one thing another thing i
want to say is like when i do work on canvases or physical paintings i know jillian owns one and
crypto camp owns one it is about energy and the energy that you put on that on on the on the
paintings because that stuff does resonate, and it does
translate into people's homes. And I'm always trying to be in the best frame of mind when
creating art. Even on tough days, it's a weird thing, but I find the duality of life. And it's
crazy, because when you look back at it, you look at the catalog, you see the work.
That's why we documented everything.
It's a reminder.
I believe artists should do that.
Document your work.
Document your time here.
And it's a reason for you to keep going.
You know what I'm saying?
So, yeah, just trying to drop as much gems as I can while I'm up here.
Christine is still on the back end handling stuff.
She's going to join in a minute.
Yo, Didi, what's good, homie?
What's up,
Sol? Congrats on the damn
mint out, man. I almost missed my mint.
I woke up an hour early and almost
missed it. Brother, people were hitting me up
yesterday. They were like, yo, I'm sorry. I missed
your mint. I was like, yo, it's today.
They're like, all right.
I'm really out of loss for words, man.
I mean, yeah, you've been around.
You've seen the murals that we've done.
We've connected and done a lot of cool stuff.
And I'm just happy to see everybody here.
The wifey is very happy, too.
She's a little busy on the back end.
But I think we love you, Didi.
That's what she said. Yeah, guys. Holy shit gonna bring up j vegas i know he's uh i know he was driving let me see what up kang how's it going
man kang the conqueror what's goody hey man i just i just wanted to come in and say, you know, congratulations, man. So.
Thank you, man. Thank you. I got a busy day at work and I was looking in the Hot Stars chat and
I saw there was a mint going on and it was this one. And I'm like, oh, crap, man. I don't have
any liquidation, but I'll see if I can pick up something on the secondary market, you know,
when I get back to my main PC. But I'm kind of disappointed that it meant it out that fast because I didn't get a chance to get in.
But that's all right. Because I'll get something on the secondary market. But, you know, congrats. But yeah, again, congratulations.
You know, we appreciate your artwork, you know, appreciate the fact that, you know, you're involved in the community.
You know, everybody loves you. That says a lot about who you are.
You know, it really instills a lot of confidence in the project.
I was reading in your backstory a while ago
when it came to how you got it started
teaching art to students
and them being excited about your background work
and you taking that to Web3.
So I'm really excited that you did that
and hoping that more artists take their work to Web3 as well.
So thank you for being a pioneer in that area.
We love you.
Happy to carry the torch.
Happy to teach kids and show them the way.
I mean, I'll be honest with you guys.
When I grew up, I had a lot of great art teachers.
And I also had a lot of teachers that were very difficult with, you know, I always tell
people, like, some of the best teachers are the ones that know how to teach the most difficult
students, because they understand, like, what perseverance is.
And it takes time.
It takes time to really get through to people.
So you may think that people know you, but they only know a
perception of you. And that's why, not that this is overwhelming, but it's like everything kind of
has to be, everything has to be shown in its own time in order for it to resonate. And that's what
it was like to gain the respect of students in those classrooms. So we, a lot of the kids that we taught came from, you know, rough
neighborhoods. And I grew up, I grew up in hip hop, you know, breaking graffiti, emceeing, DJing.
And, you know, these kids were already listening to trap. So it's like, you can't go in
cocky and being like, yo, I'm going to teach you, you know, how I learned hip hop. It's more of like,
where can we meet in the middle? And a lot
of times they started opening up through the songs that we were writing, through the artwork
that we were creating. And, you know, the patterns that you guys see today, I started creating it in
the class with those kids. And those kids, not the adults, but the kids were like, yo, Mr. Rocky,
these patterns, like, I like the graffiti, the letters.
I like all that stuff.
That stuff is cool, Mr. Rocky.
But if we could do more of these patterns and then I literally just applied that logic to the hats that I was painting, the jean jackets, the murals that I got commissioned out.
I painted gyms, barbershops.
This is all before Web 3. This is
just me and Christine painting and then documenting it because we saw people on YouTube. We saw
Iron Lack and all these different graffiti crews. And then Web 3 happened. And then when you look
at IP, I was painting Sonic the Hedgehog at Catalyst, you know, and then I started painting,
you know, the apes like four years, like two or three years later. And the amount of love that
we've gotten from these, from the communities, not just the apes, but all the communities
has been really dope. And then we've always just reinvested, you know, anything we've done,
we're like, all right, cool. We're going to put it into an IRL event or we're going to or we're gonna put it into a workshop we're gonna put into experience so that's kind of what we
want to do we want to build what we have going on but also like collaborate with people
bro we went to that that's fucking crazy bro i'm trying to bring up j vegas my dog
yeah i'm actually going to
drop down. I got to get my mind right for the
chaos in a few minutes.

And I think we all, like, needed something like this, you know, like, deep down.
Because it'd be crazy out here sometimes, man.
It'd be crazy out here.
But, man, I, like, I'm looking at the art right now, man.

Let's fucking go.
Bro, and I'm excited for what's going to happen with them all, bro.
Yeah, guys.
So, like, we're going to be cooking some activations probably within the next week or two.
So, if anyone's in South Florida, we'll be posting up details on that soon um we've done a lot of stuff with verizon and a lot of big brands
like paint by number activations and the goals with those is to kind of like get everyone to
participate in the art and to be a part of it and a lot of people when they when they get part of
these activations they're a little like timid or scared because they think they have to be like like super detailed with it and it's
just you just kind of plug and play you just fill in the colors everything's really simple and then
we have our our team our team is there to uh to guide you guys uh step by step so we're gonna be
you know releasing details on that soon. Um, it's crazy.
We're planning out this mint and, um, and working and building the actual wall for that. Uh, so
like, like on days, like we're, um, if we're here doing customer service at nighttime, we go to the
mall and we have like a team building out the walls and priming it and then, you know, sketching
it out. So yeah, we're going to be cooking guys.

Yeah, this is my first Genesis collection on the blockchain.
This is the first time.
This was like the temperature check of seeing where we're at with the communities and the work that we put in.
This is 500 custom one-of-one backgrounds.
Yeah, there's this, you know, creating art to add more value and art to it.
Our goal is not to dilute, you know, like we know we could have done something bigger
and probably get a lot more hype and a lot more people,
but we needed to kind of start here to build up.
I mean, we've already been building on the back end.
So that's what I meant by reverse engineering the whole thing.
Yeah, man.
You know, you've already proven yourself IRL.
And, bro, the Mint Out, you know, it's just everybody showing up
and showing love, man, to support you and YFy because y'all do some amazing stuff in this space, you know, with all the murals, all the one-on-one custom pieces, working with the kids, man.

rock soul thing you know um without someone else's like creative direction like this is literally just him and um yeah we're super excited
super stoked and i'm i'm seeing all these backgrounds on the timeline it looks amazing
um i'm gonna pin to the top but we did like an other page or i think it's called open page now
we did a badge so anybody that minted can claim that badge um so as long as it's in your wallet
and that you have a rock soul certified background you can claim that badge um it'll be up so it
doesn't matter if you got it in secondary or if you minted you can get it yo just letting y'all
know we're going to be putting in work so So just pay attention. You know, peep game. Pay attention.
You guys know the work that we put in, you know?
And who knows?
We might be, you know, we might be doing some crazy stuff.
So Vegas is going to be crazy.
Vegas is going to be crazy, guys.
Let me tell you.
It's going to be a movie.
I got to look at this.
I got to, at this. Wow.
My collection is on freaking magic.
It's on freaking ape chain.
That's crazy.
Did I hear that Spooky got a freaking gray background, a monochromatic one?
That guy just got so lucky.
There's so many.
Do you want to talk more in depth about the different art styles, baby? There's so many do you want to talk about like and more in depth about the different
art styles baby like there's there's so many of them like kb got a dope one she got a flair
um j vegas got a bench like they are all they're all dope you know i'm saying and uh there's a lot
of cool stuff that we want to do um with the art like to make it more like
interactive and stuff like that without saying too much but um i mean you're the one that can
speak more about the 16 categories i was like let's do five categories like no this one's this
type of style and this one's this type of style it has to be 16 so i was like all right here we go
but i personally love the glitch ones. I really like
the glitch ones. I like some of the bench ones. And I mean, they're all just so unique.
digest, DNA, flare, flow, glass, glitch, lens, matic, phases, portals, retro, scribble.
And basically, they're representations of different forms of artwork.
So glitch is more like glitchy.
Uh, bench is like the graffiti writings on the wall.
Bench is like the graffiti writings on the wall.
Uh, kind of looks like, you know, this crazy, you know, verbal, uh, Morse code, uh, asset
is like this, you know, psychedelic trip digest.
It's like, um, it's open to interpretation.
It's like different forms of art, you know?
So we just categorize everything based on like those types of feelings.
Uh, retro is one of my favorite ones
and uh portals is always dope too portals kind of reminds me of like vapor waves um phases
uh they look like patterns but they also look like one of one pieces you could see like if you
have a phase if you have the phases those are pretty pretty rare because they look like characters
and stuff and uh yeah there's just so much artwork,
a lot to unpack to your bro.
I can't wait.
And guys like feel free to make prints of it.
You need to make stickers.
You need to put your PFP behind it.
do the custom artwork for that.
we're going to be cooking,
cooking a lot of stuff.
what's good.
It was good.
No, no, because I was buying off
secondary and I saw one
called Phases, but you said it's rare,
right? Yeah, that's pretty
fucking rare. Anything that says
Phases is like, they look like they're
characters and stuff, and there's nothing
like that in the collection.
Then you got Lenses. Lenses is like, they're kind of like that in the collection. Then you got lenses.
Lenses is like the, they're kind of like, they look like Mondelez. So Christine was like, oh,
we should call them lens because it reminds us of like the eye, the eyes in the center.
There's so many that I would, I would probably snipe right now. That's crazy. Holy shit.
The fucking floor looking crazy. This is dope. This is dope. Yeah, guys, we also dropped
a song for the project. It's called Certified. It's out on all platforms. So if you guys,
we also write and record music. These are songs that I recorded about a year ago. Certified,
we didn't know we were going to call project certified so we were like we had a
song called certified we're like yo let's let's put those two things together um if you guys go
we'll make a post now but if you guys go on um apple music on itunes on spotify you look up rock

perseverance, like basically not

posted or something like that and i'm like shit i didn't know either but it sold out
so congratulations bro just want to pop in and also just grab it grab some off the secondary i
i was wondering where where to get it from but i i've been i've been creeping online and finding
finding my answers richard we didn't pay for any ads um we didn't have a marketing budget
you know we didn't even have devs but we we had we have fucking blever came in super clutch
it's on we minted on blever um but um now it's on secondary so you can get it i think on magic
eden and a few other platforms and it's real quick though real quick though there's a lot of fake
rock soul collections out there so make sure you pick So make sure you go to the
Blvver Roxxel drop page.
And then there it's going to have
the Magic Eden and the OpenSea
in that drop page.
So click that one only for the secondary.
Do not just type in Roxxel certified.
You're going to see a lot of whack shit.
She's like, fuck these fucking scammers and biters though you're doing something
right you're doing something right when you got imitators right yeah um but no i did i did copy
the link from the official page so no appreciate that yeah but um no i'm actually gonna just i was
coming in just to say what's up and congratulate you on the sold out drop.
I wouldn't expect anything less.
I was looking back.
I was trying to find my old rock soul pieces that you'd made for me just chilling in spaces before we actually even got to meet IRL.
So it's dope to see someone like yourself just has just been a constant giver in the space.
Dropping, dropping, you know, something of your own like this.
And and yeah, I just think it's awesome and wanted to congratulate your brother.
And I did hear about A-Fest.
You guys talking about A-Fest.
So if I'm, I would have mind, I'm actually going to my first A-Fest, y'all.
I became a mutant, what, last month?
So, so, but rookie ass move from me actually what technically i think two months ago
um i was talking to jay day and he told me last month that i should have bought my tickets that
i made the mistake of not buying my tickets yet so me and my girl but got got tickets to
out to las vegas but you know but i was i was actually buying it this week going to buy everything
this week once once we confirmed.
And I saw everything was fucking sold out.
Like, at least at the main event.
There's a couple side events we're going to be getting into. But anyway, dope to hear you're going to be there.
And dope to just at least experience some of the side events.
Yeah, Ape Fest, the satellite events are going to be dope.
Plus ComplexCon.
I would talk to, I guess, the people who are in charge of dope plus ComplexCon I would talk to
I guess the people who are in charge of
ApeFest because you never know
I don't know how it works
when the tickets are sold out or whatnot
if people can buy off other mutants or apes
that are not going
but yeah I would definitely check that out
because I'm pretty sure that that might be
a possibility or whatnot
but I don't know fully how it works but yeah I would definitely reach out to I'm pretty sure that that might be like a possibility or whatnot. But I don't know like fully like how it works.
But yeah, I would definitely reach out to the parties that do that.
You know, I saw Hype got his hand up.
So I'm going to go to Hype and then I'll go to Showbiz next.
What up, Hypey?
What's goody?
You know, if you guys don't know, Rock Soul the other night was on stream with us.
And we knew we had the Mint coming up.
But he was still in a mall
Putting up walls painting walls till like 5 a.m
So shout out to you and Chrissy for all the hard work you guys put in on the timeline
IRL and I'm gonna play a little something for you that you know, but I just want you to get in the mood, Rock. Ready? Let's go.
You know, I'm listening to Rock Soul.
We're Latin painting.
We just mint it out.
You've got to lower down your blood pressure. When you look outside the window, you're going
to see Rocksville backgrounds everywhere. When you go to Ape Fest, you're going to see
Rocksville backgrounds everywhere. And you need to follow your heart. You need to believe
in yourself. And yeah, just, you know, we're certified.
And I just want to give a special shout out to my dog, Rita.
Shout out to Hypey, Aqua on top.
And Showbiz, how are you doing today, sir?
How's everything going?
I am doing amazing.
You know, woke up this morning feeling blessed, highly favored.
I don't know who was talking about becoming a mutant holder last month, but if you go to the
Board of Ape Yacht Club page, you'll see the pinned tweet has the Luma links for, like you said,
a lot of the side events. I know Ape Games, more than welcome to come join in the fun. Just apply on the Luma link.
And we've got some easy ways for you to be an attendee or a contender. So we have different
options as far as like, minting our 8 games cards. If you mint 8, you're an attendee. You get to play the passive games like, you know,
Cornhole, Mutant Pong, Flip Cup, then compete in the tug of war. If you want to be a contender for
the cash pot prize, it's mint 18 passes and you get to play all those games, but then you get to
go through the obstacle course and play these strategy games that we're going to have as well.
That's part of the obstacle course.
So lots of fun.
Eight games, Vegas, you know, and yeah, man, we're cooking.
Also, we have the eight games digital game for those who are not going to Vegas, right?
The same competitive, you know, spirit that we had in Lisbon,
and you get to enjoy that online with your
friends from around the world.
So we've got a lot cooking with Ape Games.
Bro, I'm excited, bro.
And look, do you know what I like about it? That it's
indoors now. So like
a lot of us that are a little, you know, out of shape,
we haven't done the exercise or whatnot.
Like we're not going to like, you know, suffocate and die outside with the Vegas heat.
So, kudos on you guys.
On that, I heard there's obstacle courses.
I heard there's prizes and stuff.
Obviously, I'm going to be donating, you know, physical art to people.
Or to the winners, you know.
You know, I'm going to see how much I bring to Vegas to pass around, to donate.
Yeah, bro, it's going to be a movie, bro.
It's going to be a movie.
And then the wifey's over there, too, so she's going to document everything that we're doing.
So we'll probably document some of the games and stuff like that for you guys so you'll have some cool content.
Yeah, it's a movie, guys.
Richard, I saw you got your hand out.
What's good, bro? Welcome to uh roxwell certified mental yes sir holy shit no i'm busy multitasking

Oh, J-Day in the building.
J-Day is the one who gave me the message last month to sign up that I didn't open up until today.
Oh, shoot.
Earlier this week.
He was a competitor last year in Lisbon, Portugal.
Oh, hell yeah.
Yeah, a lot of people had fun, so we had to bring it back again to Vegas.
Eight games.
Bring the fun back.
Bro, it's going to be a movie. eight games bring the fun back and by the way to not to pivot so sharply but regarding the the um obviously while we're all here okay the rock so certified bro you you stole my idea you're out there telling people my my my
idea to to get these prints and and and actually put them on some things, you know?
Because I could see these looking real nice on, like, glasses and just, I don't know, other, I don't know, more tangible things that you can use.
Oh, my God, glasses.
Oh, my God.
Yeah, it's going to be a thing.
Like, we have a faq on the
website so if you guys go to our website you can read up on like you know what you can do
whatnot but we we already knew that people were probably gonna make prints and do stuff
it's just like the the mass producing thing that might be the only thing that's you know
uh it's just really to like protect the the brand and the in the community and stuff but like yeah
if you guys want to print out stuff or whatnot, who knows, man?
There's a lot of stuff that we're cooking up down the line.
Every piece is a one-of-one, guys.
Each piece is different, and there's going to be cool stuff added to it.
So it's like, yeah, you're collecting art.
But me and Christine, we can't just, you know, keep things simple.
We have to go a little crazy.
We're a little crazy with it.
You can tell by the art style.
Bro, yeah, glasses would be sick, you know.
I'm not going to go with that idea.
The glasses, imagine if it was on, like, not just the legs of the glasses, but the lenses for concerts.
Holy shit.
I'm telling you
guys i'm ordered a boo-boo might have like a jacket or something with the rock soul patterns
you know what i'm saying i swear to baby jesus if i don't get a la boo-boo hat or a hoodie with
the rock soul print i'm gonna riot in the street dude like a flag like the la boo-boo's holding
like the rock soul flag and shit you know like waving it and shit
like that's crazy bro yeah i'm gonna print a tiny mega death um painting that you did and then i'm
just gonna pose the little booboo in front of it and just like have it the same size that way it
