▎ Internz, this one is special. ▎ ▎ This week I walked back into the Recording Academy for the first time in years, and I took a seat on the Producers and Engineers Wing. So this week's class is two halves of the same win: how ▎ you get in the room, and how you master the word once you are in it. ▎ ▎ The Room: the Recording Academy, how it works, the real benefits, and everything we broke down in my committee meeting today, from AI and keeping it human to the economics of owning your ▎ work. Your path to a voting seat starts here. ▎ ▎ The Word: the real engine of great songwriting, word association. One word pulls the next until the whole song lives in one world. We study how the biggest records do it, and I am playing two ▎ of my own live in class: Birthday Cake and White Butterfly. Same pen, two powers. One built on pure wordplay, one built on pure truth. ▎ ▎ Bring a pen. Pick a word. Come in hot. ▎ ▎ Tonight, 5 PM PT ▎ Zoom: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/89536201687?pwd=7bvHU6yqjfcvXBBajJDTERsas0LSRc.1 ▎ ▎ The intern never graduates. ▎ Kosine

A short tap in for those that can make it a 30min check in! Currently at my kids open house. 🙏🏾 I’ll send the link shortly before !

Family, class is TONIGHT at 7:30 PM Pacific. Time moved, adjust your alarms. JOIN AT 7:30: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/89536201687?pwd=7bvHU6yqjfcvXBBajJDTERsas0LSRc.1 I have spent this entire week inside the Recording Academy as a voting member. Member Welcome Week. The CEO. The chapters. The producers wing. Tonight I am bringing it all back to the house: what it actually means to be a voting member, what it takes to become one, and the question I asked in a room full of hundreds that changed the temperature. Also on the floor tonight: a 2 AM phone lesson from this week that proves everything we have been teaching about demand and trust. We have a special guest in the building tonight, a positive creative brother sharing his story and his journey. Show him what this house is about. And the new house rules hold: the floor opens with YOUR homework. Two Lane Drill testimony. Who named their number. Partners, your person's report card is due. 7:30. Link above. Come ready to testify. Real doors, not just lessons. See you tonight. Kosine

Family, one change and one warning for Tuesday. THE CHANGE: Class moves to 6:30 PM Pacific this week. It is back to school night for my kids, and in this house the doctrine is family first, so I will be in that school building at 5 and on your screen at 6:30. Adjust your alarms. JOIN AT 6:30: [ZOOM LINK] THE WARNING: This is the first week of the new house rules, and I meant what I said. Before I read a single word of the new piece, the floor belongs to YOU. We are opening with what the homework taught you. Not whether you did it. What it TAUGHT you. So come ready to testify on your Two Lane Drill: what surprised you when you flipped a reference in one sitting? What did you find when you went digging in your own vault? And who said their number out loud for the first time? I want to hear what your mouth did when you said it. And if you claimed an accountability partner last week, your partner's report card is due too. If they walk in empty handed, that is on both of you. Iron sharpens iron or it rusts in the drawer. New piece drops after the testimony. It has been a heavy week of lessons over here and I am bringing them all to the floor. 6:30 PM Tuesday. [ZOOM LINK]. Set the alarm. Real doors, not just lessons. See you Tuesday. Kosine
