    Hey everybody! Thanks for watching this video on "The Wild World of Celebrities Making Music". Since the dawn of man, those with the necessary funds have been making terrible art for everybody else to suffer to (don't fact check me on that). I've been curious about this topic for a while. Actors/TikTok stars/athletes/whatever -- getting some fame and money...and then boom: they have a new music video out. How many famous people have done this over time? Which songs are bad and which are good? Are ANY good? That's what we're talking about today. Enjoy!

      Literally people just have to like you. Then they’ll support whatever you do. Cardi b proved it and now a lot of the TikToker are trying to diversify so they’re set once all the TikTok hype dies down. But it’s nothing new. The reason why Jack black went into acting was to get his name out there for his music. It’s fun to compare the different generations and how they navigate their success but societies tools and values change so there’s no point in comparing. If Bella poarch was born in Jack blacks time she probably wouldn’t be famous but the same could probably be said of Jack black if he were to be born in this generation. Metal is kinda a dying genre and half of the characters he plays would be cancelled nowadays. Fame and success aren’t guaranteed so it’s unlikely that anyone taken out of the circumstance that bred their success would still succeed. Let’s not confuse our admiration for someone with anything else

Im saying this as a musician who runs in many artistic circles. People who create like to create all sorts of stuff not just one. They might focus on the one they got better at than the others but.... Actors play piano...painters play guitar...dummers act in theater...singers throw ceramics...people who art...art.

    There's an underappreciated actor named Johnny Strong who did a few movies (most famously Black Hawk Down, and the original Fast And Furious).
    He has a kickass underrated band named Operator, which sounds like Chris Cornell meets Chester Bennington. Nothing to Lose, Soulcrusher, Burn up the Road, and The Only One are a few songs which spring to mind.

    Party All The Time is unknown? It's so iconic!
    That numetal Jada clip pulled my soul back fifteen years, I *have* to find that album

    No mention of Hugh Laurie and his blues albums? Damn. Thats a shame.
