🎤 FROM BEATS TO APP KING: ISAAC HAYES III’S POWER MOVE FOR CREATOR-CONTROLLED MEDIA
POWER OPENING: THE SHIFT FROM CONSUMER TO CONTROLLER
Isaac Hayes III isn’t just a son of soul legend Isaac Hayes—he’s a blueprint architect of fanbase and an advocate of the next generation of digital creators.
He’s moved past the music studio and into the tech boardroom, founding Fanbase, a Black-owned, culture-driven tech platform.
His philosophy is simple: Every creator should operate like their own network head, not a gig worker.
Hayes saw that platforms like Twitch and TikTok gave rise to digital moguls like Kai Cenat and Khaby Lame, but those platforms keep the real power—and the biggest checks—for themselves. Hayes wants to flip the script.
Fanbase is not another social app. It’s a rapid-monetization engine, letting users earn their first dollars within minutes of signing up.
Hayes is making sure creators don’t beg for ad revenue scraps—they collect direct from fans, fast. With $27 million raised in total, including a fresh $13 million. Fanbase is now a dominant force in Black-founded tech and a powerful tool for creator independence.
DEEP DIVE: WHY FANBASE MATTERS RIGHT NOW
Hayes believes the days of creators building billion-dollar followings only to hand them to other platforms are over. Instead, creators need to act as CEOs and own every piece of their digital real estate.
On Fanbase, content is currency—every post, every stream, every interaction has monetization baked in from the start. Unlike YouTube or Instagram, which might take months to pay out.
Fanbase shortens the cycle. Fans can tip, subscribe, or support with a single tap. It’s not about hoping to go viral, but about building real income, real quick.
CULTURE-FIRST INFRASTRUCTURE: THE BLACK-OWNED ADVANTAGE
Fanbase is a movement. Hayes designed it as a platform rooted in cultural power, designed for creators by a founder who knows the system.
He saw that culture was being exported for profit by other platforms but rarely owned at the source.
By building Fanbase with cultural infrastructure and giving Black creators, artists, and thought leaders a direct pipeline to their audience and cashflow, Hayes is restoring power where it belongs.
KEY INSIGHTS FOR PRIMAL MOGUL MEMBERS
ACT LIKE A MEDIA CEO
Hayes teaches creators to move like business leaders. You are not just content—you are the distribution, the brand, and the monetization.
Primal Mogul members must see themselves as broadcasters, not just posters.
Own your content and control your revenue. Use Fanbase to experiment with live shows, content series, exclusive drops, and digital products that fans can buy or subscribe to.
BUILD COMMUNITY INTO CULTURE
Fanbase is proof that the new economy is rooted in engagement and identity.
Members should focus on building communities that aren’t just followers, but connected networks ready to pay for value. Think beyond likes—focus on paid supporters who show up and buy in.
QUICK MONETIZATION AND MODEL VALIDATION
Fanbase shortens the test phase for creators. Instead of waiting months to see if your work converts, you can launch paid content and see results in real time.
Primal Mogul members should take this as a lesson: launch quickly, refine fast, and let the community’s support signal what scales.
THINK ECOSYSTEM, NOT JUST CONTENT
Hayes built Fanbase as a platform, not a product. That means every creator should think about building ecosystems—channels, merch, exclusive groups, coaching, consulting. Build layers of value that extend far past a single post or viral moment.
FUNDING THAT MATCHES THE MISSION
Hayes’s $27 million funding haul isn’t about hype. It’s validation from the market that creator-first, culture-first business models work.
Members looking to scale must learn how to pitch their vision: empowerment, fast monetization, and authenticity. Investors want to see systems that move the culture forward and reward creators directly.
REAL MOVES MEMBERS CAN MAKE
- Launch exclusive content on Fanbase and test paid support models.
- Host interactive lives or member Q&As where payment is immediate.
- Build your brand as a channel, offering multiple formats: podcasts, blogs, videos, and drops.
- Partner with other culture-first creators for events, series, or collaborations.
- Use direct feedback and payments to validate new product or service ideas before scaling.
- Position your story as a Black-owned business or brand—own your cultural advantage.
HOW TO WIN IN THE NEW CREATOR ECONOMY
The key lesson from Isaac Hayes III is this: Control is profit. The more you own—your audience, your platform, your brand—the more you earn.
The gatekeepers are gone for those bold enough to operate like digital TV executives. Fanbase is just the beginning—members should use these tools to build communities, convert attention to income, and own every step from post to payment.
