It's finally here! This is the first of many to come, and I honestly couldn't be more proud of this song. I poured my heart into this project, and It's been in the works for a while now.

Big shoutout to @matthew.castello. This song wouldn't be the same without you, man. Collaborating with you on this song was so special, and I can't wait to see what we create in the future.

I shot the music video for this song with my two best friends @maikaiii and @josiah.sears. Forever grateful for your friendship and support. Being able to work alongside my two closest friends on a project I care so much about is an experience I'll never forget.

Lastly, thank you @caths.adventures for going above and beyond on the music video. If any of you haven't seen her stuff, go checkout her page.

You can’t create at a level you’ve never been exposed to.

If you want to produce excellent work, chances are you don’t need better tools and more courses. You need quality exposure!

Exposure to the kind of work to aspire to create.

And as I always say, if you can’t afford to travel physically to change your exposure, travel virtually through Instagram, Substack, medium or even YouTube.

Keep creating great work🧡

Friends. Neighbors. Creators.

Thank you for joining us for the "Celebration of Life" last weekend—paying your respects for what once was, while celebrating what now is.

We'll have more to share soon, but for now, go grab your copy of The Creator Mag Book (there's <20 left!!)

Plus: Shout-out to our friends @fourthwall and @gigastar.official for powering this event.

See you offline.

Let’s flip the script👇

The spotlight often shines brightest on the top 1% - the creators getting millions of views, subscribers, and ad revenue. Basically, the names that aren’t just making A list, but EVERY list.

We’re changing the game by celebrating creators who've smashed it in 2025 and are set to blow up in 2026.

Go follow these creators, and keep an eye out for part 2:

@philfamous - The king of “anti-content”. Weird skits, unhinged comedy, awkward encounters and more.

@caths.adventures - Introspective stories, mixed-media genius, creative tutorials - all made with personality and warmth.

@d.gaf / SaltyCheeks - Corporate girly / surfer / model - chasing what she calls her “silly little dream to surf across China.”

Had you heard of these creators before? Are there others we should be watching?

YouTubers, TikTokers, Streamers, Podcasters, and everything in between – let us know 🙌

[we are so back 🤩😤] still can’t believe I just shot a campaign for @monostravel & @postcard last month

Monos launched their first-ever cafe concept in Chicago, so I knew this was such a HUGE moment for them. It was such a big responsibility with a quick turnaround time, but I’m so glad I took on this project. Being trusted with this was truly such an honor

After spending months of storyboarding, it was SO FUN getting to finally bring their vision to life. And getting to create it all with my friend @caths.adventures made it even more special

Keep believing in your art because you never know what cool opportunities await 👀

Behind the Scenes: Wanted to bring you all along a day of shooting for @postcard & @monostravel

Spent the afternoon filming the opening of Postcard — a cafe blending music, design, and hospitality

For launch day, @lefto_early_bird flew in from Belgium to perform, and it ended up being such a fun afternoon capturing the vibe and energy of the space ☕️
