when your card declines at therapy so they bring out the video of your goat dnfing after helping his teammate for 50 laps who don't help him back, only to break his 10 year points streak bcoz of a fuckass audi who dk how to drive.
Habรญa tenido buena racha hasta ahora evitando todo tema relacionado a las Kardashian- Jenner en mi feed (estaba limpio de ellas), pero ahora ODIO que por culpa de Hamilton aparezcan en todas mis redes ๐
A 13-year-old Canadian kid uploaded R&B covers to YouTube in 2008 from his bedroom. A talent manager named Scooter Braun stumbled on the videos and signed him.
For the next 15 years, Braun controlled everything. Tours, branding, business deals, public image. The kid became the biggest pop star on the planet, sold 150 million records, racked up 32 billion Spotify streams, and had three Diamond-certified singles before turning 25.
Then in 2022, he got hit with Ramsay Hunt syndrome. Partial facial paralysis. Cancelled the world tour. Disappeared from public life entirely.
Here's where it gets interesting.
In January 2023, he sold his entire 290-song catalog to Hipgnosis for $200 million. Every song he'd ever released. "Baby." "Sorry." "Love Yourself." All of it. Gone. At 28 years old, he cashed out his past.
Then he dropped Scooter Braun. After 15 years. No manager. No agent. For the first time in his career, nobody was making decisions for him.
Fast forward to this weekend. Coachella calls. He picks up the phone himself. Rolling Stone confirmed he negotiated his own headlining deal directly with Goldenvoice. No agent commission. No manager cut. $10 million for two weekends, and he kept all of it.
Then he walked onto the biggest stage in music, sat down behind a MacBook, and pulled up YouTube.
He played "Baby" from 2010. He played his bedroom covers from 2008. He harmonized with his 13-year-old self in front of 100,000 people. Katy Perry joked about whether he had YouTube Premium.
Half the internet called it lazy. The other half called it genius.
They're both wrong. It was a receipt.
He sold his catalog for $200 million. He fired the man who discovered him. He negotiated his own deal. And then he went back to the exact platform where it all started and said: I built this from a laptop. I'm headlining Coachella from a laptop. And for the first time in my life, every dollar is mine.
The kid from YouTube just closed the loop.
the people who have watched and follow carlos and alex and their dating saga advice know that every time carlos has said that if anyone ignores you or you advances you just should move on, and find someone better, he has always put the girls first, time after time
โif my crush ignores me..โ
carlos: โif the guy doesnโt come talk to you, new set of tyres immediatelyโ
โmy friends and family still ask me why i donโt have a boyfriend..โ
carlos: โiโd say because i still havenโt found someone that deserves me, simpleโ
โshould i text first or protect my dignityโ
carlos: โif you like him give him a hint, leave hints.. cheeky like, cheeky look, if he likes you he will go for itโ
alex: โand if he doesnโt?โ
carlos: โthen donโt worry he is not for you.. if you give him 700 hints and he still doesnโt go for it, donโt worry you are not gonna marry this guy, and he is not the man of your life, donโt worryโ

A veces queremos respuestas rรกpidas, pero Dios trabaja en procesos profundos. Hoy recuerda: aunque no veas movimiento, รl sigue obrando. No todo silencio es abandono. No toda espera es pรฉrdida. ๐๐ป
โLos que esperan en el Seรฑor renovarรกn sus fuerzas.โ Isaรญas 40:31 ๐ค
Benito Martรญnez Ocasio nos dio un show que honrรณ a toda Latinoamรฉrica con referencias que solo nosotros entendemos. El niรฑo durmiendo en las sillas juntadas, los puestos de comida, las fiestas, la familia, lo vibrante que es nuestra cultura desde sus colores hasta los sonidos.
La mejor protesta siempre serรก mostrar nuestra alegrรญa, nuestra cultura, porque ser capaces de sentir felicidad frente a la agresiรณn es un acto de protesta por si mismo. De aquรญ nadie nos saca, de aquรญ no nos movemos, esta es nuestra casa. Donde nacieron nuestros abuelos. Gracias Bad Bunny โค๏ธ
