That's ultimately how he was able to, hey, I'm hooking you up with these, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

And it's like, all right.

So I started doing business with him in the ecstasy context.

He became the connection for these compact discs.

So now what we wanted to do was take these and create a separate band.

Revenue stream.

Not only was capital being surfaced through the hip-hop genre with the CDs going into Santa Monica Bay, this, we could legitimately sell these.

Now, the problem with these type of artists is that if you go to any domestic compact disc manufacturing company and you're a small business owner and you show up with the original master recordings of T-Bone's album.

They're going to have no problem.

Yeah, you want 25 copies, we'll make them for you.

But if you show up with U2, or if you show up with Pearl Jam or Nirvana, they're going to be like, hold on a second.

They'll take the order.

We'll get your 50,000 CDs made for you.

No problem.

Then as soon as you leave, they pick up the phone.

They call the FBI.

Or before they call the FBI, they're going to call Universal Music Group.

They're going to call Warner Music Group.

They're going to call Interscope Records or Island Records.

We got a guy here with a master recording of a live concert for U2, and he wants 25,000 copies of the album.
