LIL DURK PARTNERS WITH EXCEED FOR PLANNED IPO OF UPCOMING MUSIC

 

OFFERS EXCLUSIVE ACCESS TO CUSTOM GRAND THEFT AUTO SERVER AS PART OF FAN EXPERIENCE

 

Rapper. Entrepreneur. Investor: Lil Durk Fuses Music and Gaming with Upcoming GTA-Based Digital Collectible Release

 

(Los Angeles, CA) - October 25th, 2022 - Exceed Talent Capital, the top platform enabling people to purchase SEC-compliant shares of talent, announced Chicago's Voice of the Streets, Lil Durk has partnered with them to offer a planned IPO for his upcoming OTF collaboration release of the song "Bedtime" with his artist Doodie Lo, giving fans a chance to participate in the revenues of royalties from the song. 

 

To commemorate this partnership, Lil Durk and Exceed will release the "Trenches All-Access Pass," which will enable exclusive access to the private Grand Theft Auto roleplay server custom-built by Lil Durk and his OTF Gaming company. The Exceed pre-sale grants immediate lifetime access, limited edition in-game wearables, and gives holders first dibs on shares from the intended music IPO.

 

Exceed's core mission, as the platform's President, Anthony Martini, explains, is to "Enable artists to IPO their work so fans can literally become partners with them," said Martini. "We believe this incentivizes the highest levels of engagement which is a win all around."

 

Lil Durk explains his motivation behind the partnership, “Where I’m from, few own anything. As The Voice of the Trenches and for my label OTF, I’m always looking for ways to expand and give back to my people. Exceed makes it possible for my fans to become part of my team and share in our success together.”

 

Rita Lee, CEO of TTPMG adds, “I’ve always wanted to implement a fractional IP sale, but there are so many legal and regulatory barriers. Exceed is the first company that seems to have taken time to do it properly and I’m excited about how we can empower more creatives and democratize access to blue chip IP for the community and beyond. The industry needed this.”

  

Since its release last month, Lil Durk's gaming initiative has acted as a space to promote music through the server's radio broadcasting and for players to interact with each other and their favorite artist. The experience will become an even more intimate space following the sale.

 

Each Trenches Pass contains the following:

 

Priority list reservation for first dibs on Talentshares from Lil Durk’s planned IPO for his upcoming OTF collaboration release of the song "Bedtime" with his artist Doodie Lo

 

Instant and lifetime access to Lil Durk's Premium Trenches GTA server, where fans can interact and game alongside Lil Durk

 

Trenches GTA Online Loot Box - each Loot Box will contain limited edition in-game wearables from a collection of over 1000 custom items made exclusively for Trenches Pass holders.

 

A selection of IRL perks, like one-of-a-kind physical items, interactions with Lil Durk himself, VIP designation for in-person events, free concert tickets and more.

 

 

 

 

 29 

 

 

While the "Trenches All-Access Pass" can technically be considered an NFT, Exceed takes a unique approach to web3. Martini explains, "We believe the blockchain is a really efficient way to deliver and authenticate digital assets. We're not talking about JPEGs that sit in your wallet; in fact, you don't even need a wallet to participate. We're simply using tokens to deliver assets that people can use in ways they're already familiar with. Think of it as web 2.5."

 

Lil Durk, alongside OTF Gaming Co-Founder and former FaZe Clan member Zephyr, looks forward to the upcoming release and the prospect of growing the platform further. "We wanted to create an amazingly refreshing experience for gamers and roleplayers in the RP and FiveM community with a combination of the Gaming Industry and Music Industry," said Zephyr. "The Trenches Server will host regular events and integrate them with both endemic and non-endemic brands in the gaming space to showcase them and have our players engage with their brands/products. This includes digital music festivals and a lot more."

What is Exceed?

Unlike royalty sharing platforms, Exceed seeks to offer fans a broad range of investment opportunities from musical artists, influencers, creators, athletes and other talents who have impacted our lives. In addition, Exceed enables Fans to benefit beyond royalty-related income and extend it to live performance, physical sales, merchandise, advertising & sponsorship, and a variety of other talent income sources.

 32 
 

 

How do I get started?

 

Firstly, you need to download the Exceed app.

 

The process is simple. Everything you need is in the Exceed app and it will guide you step by step.

 

Who can invest?

 

Anyone 18 years of age and older can invest. Because of the risks involved with this type of investing, however, you are limited in how much you should invest during any 12-month period in these transactions. The limitation on how much you can invest depends on your net worth and annual income.

 

What payment methods can I use to buy TalentShares?

 

Currently the Exceed App accepts ACH payments, Credit and Debit Cards

 

Coming soon - cryptocurrency payments.

 

Why is it important that Exceed offers securities that are SEC qualified?

 

There are many talent marketplaces, each offering different methods and levels of participation for fans and investors. Exceed has chosen to take a rigorous regulatory approach to creating its talent investment platform and, eventually, its exchange.

 

What are TalentShares?

 

TalentShares are a new way for Fans to buy a stake in the success of Talent they love and share in their success. TalentShares are offered under Regulation A+ of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. In the run-up to each offering, Exceed’s market experts work with the Talent and their representation to evaluate and determine what to offer to the public, the number of TalentShares to be offered, and at what price.

 

How do I make money on my TalentShares?

 

Fans may be able to benefit financially from their TalentShares in two ways:

 

1. Trading. You may make (or lose) money by buying or selling TalentShares in the market at a different price to the one that you purchased it for.

 

2. Collect Piece of the Pie (POPs) - similar to stock dividends, POPs provide the holders of TalentShares with the potential of a financial distribution, based on the performance of the Talent. POPs, or any form of income or capital distribution, are not guaranteed, and it is possible that the TalentShares you own will never distribute any money at all.

 

How do I trade my TalentShares?

 

TalentShares are, theoretically, immediately tradable following purchase. There are no mandatory holding periods, and you can sell your TalentShares privately as soon as you take possession of them. However trading in TalentShares can only take place on a suitably licensed Alternative Trading Platform. Exceed intends to offer this functionality in the near future via its app, although please note that there is no guarantee that any such trading platform will be made available to TalentShare holders, and even if it is, there is no guarantee of liquidity, or of you finding a willing buyer or seller for your TalentShares.

How does my investment support the Talent?

 

This depends on the type of investment that is being offered. Our investments range from investing in a Talent’s project before it has been completed (new projects) to Talent creations that may have been completed years earlier (historical IP).

 

If a Fan invests in a Talent’s new project, the funds are typically utilized by the Talent to complete the project and bring it to market. In this case, the funds go directly to assisting the Talent in advancing their career. Once the Fan has invested, it is then through Exceed’s fan engagement app that they can promote the Talent and be part of the future of the project in which they invested.

 

If a Fan invests in a completed project (historical IP), then the proceeds may go to the Talent to allow them to create new projects based on the investment they received from historical ones. In this case, the fan can also promote the Talent and be part of their continuing journey using our fan engagement app.

 

What are music royalties?

 

Music royalties are payments received by rights holders such as songwriters, composers, and recording artists, in exchange for the licensed use of their music. These royalties are paid out by institutions that use the music (from TV channels, radio stations and venues to streaming platforms and beyond), and collected on behalf of rights holders most of the time by Performance Rights Organizations (PROs). In some cases, the user (such as major labels) will pay out the royalties directly to rights holders.

 

Performance royalties are licensed and collected by PROs. Songwriters and publishers register with these organizations to collect performance royalties due them whenever a song is played in public. This includes the playing of a song on radio (AM/FM, streaming, or satellite), in a concert hall or in a restaurant, and on television shows and commercials. These PROs pay both the publisher and the songwriter for their respective share of the performance royalty that they collect.

 

In some cases, the offerings that are presented on the Exceed platform go beyond music rights deals and often have a higher income potential. If the offering is related to an associated record label or distributor, the owners shares in such an offering will also potentially receive income from physical sales of albums & CDs and other sources of revenue such as merchandise sales

 

What is “Testing the Waters”?

 

Testing the Waters was introduced by the SEC in 2012 as a method of allowing companies to gauge interest in their potential public offerings, without risking their own resources on expensive and time-consuming offering processes, and without investors risking their money on offerings that may never come to fruition. In short, Testing the Waters is a mechanism that allows Exceed to gauge public interest in its TalentShare offerings without Fans committing to purchasing anything.

 

Exceed Is ‘Testing The Waters’ to gauge investor interest in an offering under SEC Regulation A (a “Mini IPO”). During the Testing Waters phase, no money or other consideration is being solicited at this time for the sale of securities, and if any is sent, it will not be accepted. No offer to buy securities is being accepted. Any indication of interest in purchasing securities involves no obligation or commitment of any kind by you or exceed. There is no guarantee that this, or any other offering on the Exceed platform will proceed.
