APPLY FOR THE RED BULL MICROGRANTS!!
THIS IS THE RESOURCE A LOT OF PEOPLE STATED THAT WE DIDN’T HAVE. A COOL FOLKS AT RED BULL ARE NOT ONLY GIVING YOU WINGS BUT THEY’RE GIVING OUT A RACK (AS SCHOOLBOY Q WOULD SAY), A $1000 GRANT TO 2 CREATIVES PER MONTH. WITH THAT MONEY YOU COULD BUY A EXTRA LARGE IMOS PIZZA AND HAVE $500 LEFT OVER FOR YOUR CREATIVE ENDEAVORS! YOU GOOD OUT HERE MY PALS.
RED BULL HAS A REPUTATION OF SUPPORTING CREATIVES ACROSS THE COUNTRY FOR OVER 20 YEARS. THEIR REPUTATION IS VERY SOLID. A LOT OF ST.LOUIS ARTISTS HAVE BENEFITED FROM THE HELP OF RED BULL. BLVCK SPVDE, TRIFECKTA, MVSTERMIND JUST TO NAME A FEW. WHY NOT YOU? APPLY!
I’VE WATCHED PROBABLY EVERY RED BULL MUSIC ACADEMY LECTURE VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE. IF YOU HAVEN’T GO WATCH A COUPLE OF THEM AND APPLY WHILE YOU’RE LISTENING TO EM. JANELLE MONAE AND KAYTRANADA ARE A COUPLE OF MY FAVORITES.
THIS IS TIME FOR THE SELF PROCLAIMED SLEPT ON ARTISTS TO STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND APPLY FOR THIS GRANT. TELLING ME AND OTHERS IN ST.LOUIS THAT YOU’RE UNDERRATED HASN’T BEEN WORKING BECAUSE I DON’T HAVE ANYTHING TO GIVE YOU BUT “AW THAT’S CRAZY.” RED BULL IS ASKING YOU FOR THE INFORMATION THAT YOU TELL ME EVERY MONTH AND ARE WILLING TO PUT $1000 BEHIND IT. THIS IS YOUR TIME TO SHINE!
I FEEL LIKE I’M SOUNDING LIKE THE VATTEROTT COLLEGE GUY TELLING YOU THAT YOU’RE NOT DOING ANYTHING ALL DAY BUT SITTING ON THE COUCH WATCHING LIFE PASS YOU BY SAYING “MAYBE YOU’LL APPLY FOR THAT RED BULL MICRO GRANT NEXT YEAR.” NO! YOU DO IT RIGHT NOW! YOU SPEND ALL YOUR TIME ON THE INTERNET ANYHOW! WHY DON’T YOU SPEND THAT TIME PUTTING IT TOWARDS YOUR CREATIVE FUTURE! WHY ARE YOU MAKING IT COMPLICATED IT’S EASY!
AS MUCH AS I PREACH THE CREATIVE GOSPEL ON THIS SITE YOU THINK I’M NOT APPLYING? YOU DAMN RIGHT I’M APPLYING. YOU BETTER JOIN ME TOO. EVEN IF WE DON’T GET CHOSEN THIS IS THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY TO GET THE BUSINESS SIDE OF YOUR CREATIVITY IN ORDER. IF YOU DON’T GET CHOSEN IT’S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD. IT’S ONLY THE END OF THE WORLD IF YOU NEVER BET ON YOURSELF AND GAVE YOURSELF A CHANCE. REMEMBER THE MOVIE LITTLE GIANTS WHERE THE GREAT RICK MORANIS GAVE THE GREATEST HALFTIME SPEECH IN THE HISTORY OF FOOTBALL? EVEN IF YOU’RE BEAT 9 OUTTA 10 TIMES THAT LEAVES “ONE TIME.” YOUR ONE TIME FOR VICTORY MAY BE ON IT’S WAY WHEN YOU APPLY.
OKAY I’M ABOUT TO TAKE A BUBBLE BATH. APPLY A FACE MASK. LIGHT A LAVENDER CANDLE AND LISTEN TO SOUL II SOUL ON VINYL. APPLY FOR THE RED BULL MICRO GRANT AND GIVE YOUR CREATIVITY THE GLO UP!
LOVE, BENNY
