If you're in, I'm in
Added 2021-11-06 13:37:25 +0000 UTCGood morning, wonderful peoples:
As of this writing, 67 of you have agreed to support me and my channel and this wonderful musical journey I'm on. While I'm not quite in retirement territory yet, I'm honestly surprised to see these numbers climbing the way they are (from 30-ish to 60-ish in a day). And this is with my totally botching the Patreon launch and not actively promoting it until it gets straightened out. That means many of you actively sought this page out to sign up. You put in effort to kick in some support. That means a lot to me.
Some of you may be aware of my weekly upload limit through Vimeo. I'm happy to say that limit is no more. I just upgraded my account to Business level (oh, so fancy 🧐) which means I'm free to upload as much as I want without limits.
This also means I just put up $500 (yearly) of my own money to show you how much your support means to me.
The full, uncut video of 'Late Registration' is uploading now. I'm going to spend a lot of this weekend uploading everything I have so you all can enjoy the uncut versions. It's going to take time. Uploads are slow, but it'll get there.
I really do believe we're at the start of something special here. We're gaining momentum. I'm going to do everything I can to curate what's happening and allow it to grow into whatever it will become. Thank you again, again and again and again, for all of the support—in likes, in views, in comments, in spreading the word, in kicking in $2 a month.
As I so often say (I recently noticed) after pausing a song to discuss something and I'm ready to continue: "Let's keep going"

I'm loving this community, man. It's incredible, even the people that screw with me on the live streams lol... it's been a lot of fun. Thanks for all the support!

2021-11-07 10:18:13 +0000 UTCI agree. I think you can have polls for miscellaneous stuff or community engagement but polls for reactions seems like a slippery slope this early in the channel imo (especially when you're trying to work thru the backlog of these marquee hip hop artists)
2021-11-06 14:56:05 +0000 UTCI agree to an extent, but for now I don't want to get into a situation where people think they're paying for requests. Polls are good (I like that idea), but I don't want to create a scenario where people are making requests and thinking they'll get done soon after because then I up end with a 'paid' request list that looks exactly like my normal request list and I can't fulfill it because I don't have the time. I don't want people feeling like they got ripped off by paying for something that didn't happen. Does that make sense?
