How Oliver Tree Broke The Music Industry

Danny Duncan and Jon Youshaei
About this episode

We interviewed Oliver Tree who is changing the music industry by bringing together inspiration from different artists ranging from the Gorillaz to Weird Al to Wes Anderson and more. And he may or not have walked off our podcast set after a few too many jokes 😅

During the interview he talked about his early beginnings on Vine to his "Slime" stunt on Logan Paul's Impaulsive podcast and why people may think he's a parody or joke, but in reality, he's more serious than 99% of artists with the millions he's invested in his world tour, concerts, and production.
