🪩All-Access Members Update -14/04/2025🪩

Hi Hello!

I cannot believe we have over 575 people in our Patreon All-Access fam now🤯 but I'm so happy you're here! First, I apologize for being a bit MIA in the comments and chats; I've been trying to catch up after all the audio equipment issues. That said, thank you for all the support and love this past week🖤🙌🏽🥹 I think this update will answer a lot of outstanding things, but if I missed anything you were wondering about, please let me know in the comments :) Apologies for the length of this in advance🤦🏻‍♀️😹

• I finally decided on drop times to go with: 5:15 pm (CST) on Thursdays and 8:15 am (CST) on Sundays. I also wanted to mention that I know the live drops aren't loved by everyone ( as a viewer of other Patreon creators I feel you ) ,but unfortunately (& much to my dismay) Patreon doesn't have the ability to schedule ahead without the use of the live drop:/ and the time it takes to upload fluctuates and is unpredictable so the live drop is safest for following a schedule.

Last month when I had Patreon and YouTube vote about mixing in other artists or focusing on Kendrick first, there was a valid concern brought up by numerous people that doing the albums so close together and not having enough time to "sit" with them if you will. I added "buffer" time between filming, but I promised everyone I would keep and eye on it and I would be transparent if anything came up. Ultimately, I want to give each artist I cover the respect they deserve and, in turn, give everyone watching the best content I'm able to, even if that means deviating from the original plan. I think I made a miscalculation. For example, I'm in the process of editing the TPAB Live Performances which will be posted Thursday evening, but with my schedule if I want to be able to make the Sunday drop of untitled unmastered. I would need to film it tomorrow. So this is what I'm thinking of doing going forward and I'd love your feedback:

• First, I think I should post pone the untitled unmastered reaction to Thursday, April 24th. You will still get posts this week more info below.

• Add in a buffer after a big album drop. To use TPAB as an example I dropped it on Thursday, April 10th. In the buffer scenario, the music videos would have been Thursday, April 17th and the live performances Sunday, April 20th. That way there would have been "two weeks" dedicated instead of trying to squeeze it into a week.

I've mentioned this previously, but it is really important to me that I try to ensure that those who choose to support the channel financially are getting benefits worthy of your hard-earned money. I don't want to change things without explaining first and getting your feedback. If we move forward with this here is an updated potential drop schedule would look like:

• Thursday, April 17th = TPAB Live Performances, which includes i on SNL (2014) + the late show w/ Stephen Colbert (2015) + BET awards w/ Beyonce (2016) + Grammy's performance (2016)

• Sunday, April 20th / sometime this week = GKMC missed tracks (Cartoons & Cereal + County Building Blues) & Drake interview response + BET Cypher

• Thursday, April 24th = untitled unmastered.

  [p.s. I didn't see any music videos connected to this, but there was two live performances requested (Untitled 03 -Live on The Colbert Report & Untitled 8- The Late Show) since the album is short I figured I would just include that in one video, but if there is more live performances that might require a separate video let me know.]

• Sunday, April 27th = The Heart iv

• Thursday, May 1st = DAMN. + DAMN Collectors Edition

  [p.s. many have requested to do both and to that I say considering TPAB video was 3 hours 45 minutes, do you really want that many hours of my chaos? If most of you want it I'm in lol]

• Thursday, May 8th =DAMN. [MVs]

As always thank you for all your support and I hope you have a great night or day wherever you are :) - Vambie
