Mick Unplugged
DJ JayLew: From Beats to Business, A Journey of Innovation and Impact

I don't care if somebody wants to sit inside of the car. We have too many people now that are so stuck up. Like, oh, no, you can't take a picture in front of my car. I used to do that. Like, who cares? Like, you should be happy. You should be able to say, oh, wow, someone actually appreciates the hard work I put in to earn this car. Have fun. Take as many pictures as you want.

Like, for somebody to be out there and, like, to bash somebody to say, oh, you're a poser. You're not doing this. We should be congratulating people. Who cares? If you're really successful, it doesn't matter. It's the picture. It doesn't matter.

And I started to realize that because I've had to harness a lot of people that called me so many different names over my career to where now it's like, okay, the tide has shifted. There's a power shift happening. And I'm humble.

I'm humble because I understand there's a power shift happening and I still want to transact with people that didn't want to transact with me when I was in my development stages.

But these are going to be the same people, you know, you included Mike, who we'll see, you know, when we're on New York Stock Exchange, when we're, you know, doing the CNBC Squat Box interviews and, you know, all the other stuff. You know, I still have love for that. And I want people to understand I'm coming from hip hop, like rap music.

When I listen to that music now, I completely understand Jay-Z and why he doesn't want to be affiliated with certain things. Because now, even with my business partnerships and my affiliations, you can't go into certain settings. I'm doing a huge launch party on Saturday for 8th season with my creative director, Amy Kirsten. That party is at an art gallery.

There's no way you can go into an art gallery and start playing a bunch of derogatory music in that type of environment. So we have to also realize what we're doing too. Are we pouring poison into the community? Or are we adding life and value to the community?

And where I'm at right now, because going back to my point about DJing, the reason why I haven't DJed is because the music has gotten so bad to the point to where me being a hip-hop or rap DJ actually holds negative connotation to every part of my businesses that I'm going into at this point. Anyone that's in data tech and AI doesn't want to hear anything about hip-hop or rap.
