00:00You know what I realize? You have some musicians, actors, actresses who go by a certain name
00:23as a persona. Or, let's just go with musicians instead. You got certain musicians, majority
00:34of the time, that go with their name, their alter ego, as their persona. Like a hero that
00:48goes about their name. On some Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Elastigirl. Elastigirl, not
01:04Elastigirl. And it's like, afterwards, after the show they put on, they take off the persona
01:19behind the scenes and enjoy their private life. That is the best way of living, as long
01:27as your alter ego and persona is generating money for you to make you have financial freedom.
01:36The only thing is, there are some that can manage to go that far, and some that just
01:44can't put up with it no more. Whenever you see an artist go about themself with an alter
01:52ego, and then come out saying, no, no, no, man. I am, and they said their real name.
02:03I'm not just only Superguy, in the eyes of all my fans as a musician. I am also John
02:18Withersun. And it's like, bro, you're in entertainment. Or the woman, musician name
02:31is Fire Shot. But then she said, no, I am Sammy Trina. I'm like, the whole point of
02:49you is just to go by a certain entertainment name. And just make your money. And then leave
03:07the limelight. Whatever cameras see, paparazzi see, all that see, like the audience and everything.
03:17Just give them that look. Do you really want them all to know about you? This is what I
03:23call musicians who don't want to just ride with their alter ego and want everyone to
03:31even know their private life and their real name. I call y'all Tony Stark. Y'all the type
03:40of celebrities that you don't want people to only just know you by your alter ego and your
03:49persona. You want them to know you by your real name. You want everyone to know like,
03:54yeah, I'm this guy. Yeah. Yeah, I'm Iron Man. Or I'm Iron Woman. Yeah, I'm the guy in the armor.
04:06Yep. That's me. All me. I have this. I have that. Yes, you know me as this, but I am also that.
04:12Mm-hmm. Yep. Yep. Yep. And it's like, damn, it's always fun to be a mystery. Why y'all always want
04:21the whole world to know who you are privately? Don't you want to live a good private life? Why
04:29expose everything just so you can relate with everybody? I just want to let you know,
04:35every single person, every single grown man and woman have a little child in them. And that little
04:41child in them is interested in mysteries, interested in alter egos, characters that
04:50are supposedly fictional, but to them, it's nonfiction. They love seeing someone try to like
05:01be so intriguing, interesting, strange, some weirdness. When you bring too much real,
05:13they just back down like, damn, I use your alter egos as an escapism from reality itself. Because
05:21reality is looking like shit for so many people. Too much pills, too much this, too much that.
05:28So if someone can take them out of reality, entertainment wise, they will love to be
05:34interested in you, invest in you, make fan art of you and all that because you make them feel like
05:39there's more to life than all the miserable stuff around them.
05:47Just saying, industry secret.
