FROM THE EDITOR

busy Busy BUSY! That’s what I’ve been lately pumping out content, and getting ready for my big reveal next week at an event where I’ll be sharing with the world publicly what I’ve been working on here at irl Media NEWS.

I couldn’t be more excited, but also admittedly a little nervous.

I think we all have a little big of impostor’s syndrome when we step into a new role we’re not 100% comfortable with yet, but for me that’s also part of the exhilaration of doing something new!

As a serial entrepreneur this isn’t my 1st rodeo, but that doesn’t mean I won’t have a few butterflies in my stomach when I get up on stage in front of 250+ strangers and pitch irl Media next week.

Wish me luck!

Why Is Spotify Adding Music Videos?

Spotify is making a major move in the music streaming wars by adding music videos to its platform, a strategic step aimed at competing more directly with YouTube. With this feature, Spotify is expanding beyond its roots in audio streaming, acknowledging that the future of music engagement lies in video content. This development comes as Spotify strives to keep up with other platforms that offer both music and video, like YouTube, which has long been a dominant player in both arenas. Read More

His involvement with the Raiders follows his recent acquisition of a stake in the Las Vegas Aces, the WNBA team co-owned by Raiders’ owner Mark Davis. Pending NFL approval, Tom Brady will join the exclusive club of former athletes who have parlayed their on-field success into team ownership. Read More
