1) Sex. Never seen it. heard of it, never seen it. Drugs. On occasion. Boozing. I've been known to have a Whiskey neat while in the studio, nothing overboard

2)Usually tend to treat them like children.

3)More than $30k less than $200k haha

4)Youtube. There's a goldmine of tutorials

5) Perk: Travel! I love to travel! Downfall: People from my past "suddenly remembering" we're best friends

6) A lot of people laugh at that illuminati bullshit. A lot of artists play it up, just to get people talking about their video. It's honestly just a marketing gimmick at this point

7) HARD motherfucking WORK. There's no way around it. You need to spend hours mastering your craft before you'll even be considered.

8) Cash: 500k at once. Drugs: I honestly try my hardest to stay away from all that shit.

9) 2 Chainz & Tyler, the Creator

10) I've had girls from my home town offer me untolds amount of sexual favours to have me let them meet their favourite singer/rapper/musician. Girls can honestly be the worst.

"Discovered" - No. I've worked with people before they were famous however. Notably - The Weeknd and Conor Maynard (although that was only mixing and mastering some records).

Babysit. Oh God. I've been waiting awhile to tell this story.

One of my jobs in high school was a studio technician at a local studio in my home town. As a studio technician I was basically there to work all the cable running and mic set-ups within the studio. One rainy night (gotta set the mood ;) ) I get a call from the studio manager telling me the normal studio engineer is out of town and they need me to take over for him for this 13 year old girl whose daddy was paying good money to record her demo. So, I raced to the studio, set-up the session and began the recording process. The records were all demo'd and done for her before hand, she literally just had to go in and lay vocals. Now even in my youth I had a good ear of what sounded good and what was terrible (I'm blessed with perfect pitch to top it off). Every take, this girls father would be bouncing around in the studio shouting "THATS THE TAKE! THIS IS THE ONE!". To the point of it becoming incredibly irritating. Now anyone who works in a studio will tell you, singers will rarely ever get it on the first take. After 5 hours of dealing with this, I eventually kicked them out of the studio for the night because I simply couldn't deal with her father.

TL;DR - Father was a Prima Donna - got his ass kicked out of the studio

If we could line the 100 duck sized horses in a choir line, and have them attend weekly practices. We might have something.

Although, the 1 horse-size duck might have an amazing baritone.

I'll take the choir.

Edit* I'm a retard at spelling apparently
