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.
Bila tengok gambar bulan terbaru Artemis ll, banyak hentaman Asteroid di permukaan bulan.
Tiba-tiba terfikir kalaulah kena di bumi ketika manusia ada, mesti ramai yang akan mati.
Cuma bumi kita dilindungi atmosfera yang bakar meteor kecil yang masuk. Selain itu, graviti Jupiter juga tarik majoriti meteor/asteroid berhampiran bumi. Kita sangat bertuah bab tu.
Kita juga ada magnetic shield yang lindung bumi dari ribut suria dan radiasi matahari.
Semua ni nampak macam kebetulan.
Tapi itulah kuasa Allah. Manusia mendiami bumi dengan aman dari ancaman begini.
Walau ada berpuluh ribu asteroid di sekeliling bumi sekarang, kita masih selamat setakat ini.
Saintis calculate kita selamat setakat ini dari dihentam sesuatu yang boleh buat kita pupus. Cuma ia sekadar kira-kira manusia.
Bila Allah bagitau, telah tiba kiamat kelak, tiada siapa dapat halang. Confirm kita semua mati. Yang penting ketika itu cuma amalan kita je. Untuk dibawa ke akhirat.
Everyone felt sad for the penguin walking alone and the monkey rejected by his mother. But this video is far more heartbreaking, yet it didn’t receive the same attention.
