I'm your host, Brian Sazi, and we are taping this episode at the Milken Institute conference in Los Angeles, and I'm, it's a real honor to welcome on my next guest to this episode, uh, artist, composer, producer, entrepreneur, Wyclef. It's so good to see you. Like, it's a real honor to have you here, seriously, I appreciate it. Um you, man. What bringsyou to Milken? 0:22 spk_1 Um, well, first of all, thank you to Milke for having me. And I would say in the past, uh, 30 years, um, I started off at the Fugees, and I think a lot of times people look at the music and behind the music is the engineering. So, as an engineer, I started with hardware, uh, software conversion, uh, streaming.To AI Music, uh, I've been progressive in the process, I've been part of a few companies, one of them being Open Wave. I'm, uh, I also, I'm also a consultant for Google DeepMind.Um, division, um, so just I'm here as we move towards the future. The, the future of music is being shaped differently to talk about like how I see us moving forward in the next 10 years. 1:08 spk_0 The lasttime I saw you, it was maybe 2 or 3 years at Davos at a Google event.

So, um, so, and, and now it's, it's normality, right? Um, to do music, you have to have these studios, you have to have a sense of, um, you know, how these notes are going, how these beats are going now, whatever ...
