Chapter 1: How is AI transforming Hollywood?
Yeah. Oh, my gosh. Bars. Oh, yeah. He's always been talented. I mean, you know, it's... I always say, like, most of the white rappers, like... When they can get all the audiences, you win. When everyone messes with you fast forward, you're in there. It's like you're locked in for sure. Lil Dicky's one of those. He's one of those. Mac Miller was one. Oh, yeah, Mac Miller for sure.
Chapter 2: What are the risks of AI in the entertainment industry?
Eminem. Who else was white and killing it? I think even... G-Eazy? Well, yeah, G-Eazy. But I got to shout out to my boy.
who you know he's not he's not um as famous as everyone else but he's one of my favorite rappers of all time and he's capo capo capo i'm gonna send you his music you gotta check it out he's from like uh dothan alabama he's like country but he's got like the sauce and the sweat yeah he's like all right he's so hard bro he's like one of my favorite rappers well dude there's there's like rap country songs now have you seen this oh yeah with migos yeah yeah it actually sounds good
Oh yeah, man. I mean, country is one of those things. It's like another thing. It's kind of universal as well. Yeah. You know, a lot of people will say they don't listen to country, but then you put some shit on and they're singing that shit right along with you. A hundred percent. Lil Nas X was my gateway into country. Really? Remember that song? Of course. Oh my gosh.
Chapter 3: Can AI replace traditional roles in acting?
Who doesn't? You say you don't know that song, you're lying. Like, you're lying. Oh my gosh. I used to hate country, but that song was way too catchy. Oh yeah, it was a hit. It was definitely a hit. I'm not big on like old, like actual country though, I'd say. Okay, I mean. Like do you listen to country country or like?
Like do I put it on on my own? No. But do I like listen to it? Like I'm very like, I'm very cultured in a way where I listen to a lot of music, man. And it was, I think it was also kind of like growing up on my show. Like Sean Flynn, who played Chase on my show, he introduced me to a lot of music that I would never have listened to in my life. And I became a fan of it.
There's one group, I always talk about this. There's a group that was called Sigur Rós. I don't know if you've ever heard of it. I've never heard of it. Yeah, me neither. And it's crazy. They're like Icelandic. They're from Iceland. And they don't sing like...
melody songs it's like just sounds it's like weird that's actually cool yeah it's kind of it's kind of it's like ambient like sounds like this guy he makes like these very high pitch notes and like noises but it's like not like you know the regular formula if you would of music but it's really good though like i used to like listen to it on the plane to like go to sleep and shit it's like weird but like you know i was always like introduced to new music as a kid so like my
My palette for songs is kind of all over the place. People get in my car and they're like, bro, we listen to a trap song, a Frank Sinatra song, a Whitney Houston song, a Lil Wayne song. I'm like, yeah, my brain's kind of like that. You just appreciate music. Oh, yeah. I love good music. You just find the beauty in every genre.
Yeah. My kids, when they're in the car with me, they're listening to James Brown, Ray Charles, Mariah Carey, Boyz II Men. I kind of switch it up a lot, especially for my kids. They don't listen to any rap music. I'm with you on that. I think the programming with rap. Oh, yeah. They don't listen. I mean, it's just gotten so crazily out of hand. Yeah, with the drugs and violence.
Yeah. And for me, what I do is I let them hear good music. Because I want them to understand quality music. So that way, when they do hear other stuff, it's kind of like... You know what I mean?
Because that's how I grew up. When I grew up, we would go on trips and stuff with my mom and my dad. My mom would have all the Boyz II Men stuff, the Whitney Houston, Tony Braxton, all this kind of stuff. That's kind of what I grew up listening to. Did you feel like you had to grow up quick because you were working at a young age?
Yes and no. I think we grew up quick in a way that we learned how to communicate with people and adults a lot better than most people. But I don't think we grew up quick in a negative sense, just due to the fact that like my dad, um, both of my parents kept me and my brother very grounded. Oh yeah.

Chapter 5: How did Chris Massey become a successful actor?
Yeah, like, you know, I mean, literally stacks of like headshots and we were just like, you know, we're sitting next to each other like... Is your arm tired? My shit's done. But those used to be some really, really fun times, man. I think that the culture of film and television kind of has obviously swayed away from it. I mean, most shows don't even do 20 episodes anymore. It's like 5 to 10.
Yeah, like most shows now, you're getting a good 5 to 8, honestly, if we're being honest. But even the top ones, 10 might be max a season. So I think we kind of were the end of that golden era of television where people come up to me all the time and they're like, man, you were my childhood, man. You were my childhood. And I'm like, that's a really cool, warm thing to hear.
But it kind of sucks because, like, my kids, they don't have, like, shows like that. You know? Yeah. Like, you know, my oldest is nine. And, like, I took her to the Kids' Choice Awards last year. And I was like, she's going to be so excited. She's going to get to see her favorite, you know, people or whatever. And she was like, all she wanted to do. meet were influencers. That was it.
I think there was one or two girls that were on a show, I think Henry Danger or something, because she wanted to see, but everyone else was influencers. Crazy. Times have changed, man. Cartoon Network just went under. Really? Did you see that? No, I didn't. A couple weeks ago. Wow. I wonder how these networks are going to adapt, because now people watch stuff on Netflix and Hulu.
Yeah, man. I think it's good, but I also think that... What I truly believe is they need to bring back sitcoms. I think that all of your streaming platforms, they're going with the fact that people are trying to change the landscape of film and television, but I really do believe that sitcoms were something that people looked forward to. And obviously maybe the format can change up a little bit.
But I think people, don't get me wrong, there are a lot of great shows that people watch and they love to watch them, but something about that sitcom and that live audience that just did something. Because When my brother's show, for instance, That's a Raven, they filmed in front of a live audience. I didn't know that. Yeah, so that was like... So those laughs were real? All real, yeah. What?
I thought they just edited those in. No, man, that was all real. No way. And it was the most fun experience. And I think that was why, as a kid, I really enjoyed being on that set. Because my show filmed like most shows film now, right? You're just on set, you're filming, you go home. But on my brother's show, they would... They would do a table read on Monday.
So they would go out and they would have, you would get there early on Monday, all the cast, whoever's the guest stars would be there. We would all sit in a big room, big table. The producers, the writers, the cast, the director, they all sit there and they would read the episodes fully through the entire episode. So they go from start to finish with everyone reading their roles, right? Yeah.
So then Tuesday comes around, they block. They just say like, okay, you're going to come in through here. They go on the set and they kind of block through the shots. Wednesday, they do the same thing, rehearse. Thursday, they film. And then on Friday, they bring in a live audience.
