    Let It Rock Origin Story Kevin Rudolf Reveals His Reaction to Lil Wayne's Verse | Simplistic Podcast

    Kevin Rudolf walks into the studio and instantly turns it into 2009 again. In this episode of Simplistic Podcast, the hitmaker behind “Let It Rock” finally breaks down how the record REALLY happened, what it was like being the rock guy on Cash Money, and why a Four Seasons dinner turned into a $20,000 oyster and caviar disaster that earned him the nickname “Caviar Kevin.” From touring with Jeremy back in the Myspace era, to getting Lil Wayne on “Let It Rock” at 6am, to quietly stacking 6x platinum plaques and WWE theme songs, Kevin opens up about the grind, the magic, and the dark side of the music industry. Then things get heated when the guys debate AI music, artistry, and whether “robot records” will kill real musicians. To top it all off, Kevin picks up the guitar and performs an insane live medley of “Let It Rock,” “Welcome To The World,” and “I Made It” in studio. No backing track, no auto-tune, just straight up superstar energy. IN THIS EPISODE: • The full story of “Let It Rock” and how Lil Wayne’s verse came in at sunrise • How Kevin went from bedroom producer to Cash Money artist with Slim and Birdman • Why WWE kept calling him back for theme songs and live performances • The $20,000 oyster + caviar bill at the Four Seasons and the birth of “Caviar Kevin” • Inside stories from touring, tour buses, and Myspace-era fame • Timberland, FutureSex/LoveSounds, and learning from the greatest producers alive • Raw debate: AI music vs real musicians – evolution or the death of soul? • Emotional live acoustic performance of “Let It Rock,” “Welcome To The World,” and “I Made It” If you grew up screaming “WAYNE’S WORLD, PLANET ROCK” or blasting “I Made It” in your first car, this episode is going to hit you right in the nostalgia. 0:00 – The $20,000 Oyster Story (“Caviar Kevin”) 0:38 – Kevin Rudolf Joins the Podcast 0:56 – “Let It Rock” Goes 6x Platinum & The Ringtone Era 1:29 – How Kevin & Jeremy Met on Tour 3:54 – WWE Themes, Touring, & Early Music Memories 6:31 – Inside Cash Money: Wayne, Drake, Nicki 7:13 – How Kevin Got Signed & The Slim/Birdman Story 9:00 – The Making of “Let It Rock” & Wayne’s 6AM Verse 13:39 – Playing Guitar for Timbaland, JT, Nelly Furtado 18:10 – Kevin Finds His Sound: Rock + Hip-Hop Drums 23:35 – The Night “Let It Rock” Became a Hit 26:47 – The Miami Dinner That Created ‘Caviar Kevin’ 31:39 – Kevin Reacts to AI Music & Industry Future 41:01 – Can AI Replace Original Artists? 45:15 – Kevin Rudolf Performs “Let It Rock,” “Welcome to the World,” & “I Made It” Live LISTEN TO SIMPLISTIC PODCAST: Available on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, iHeart, and everywhere else you listen.

    In this explosive episode of the Simplistic Podcast, Marciano Brunette finally breaks his silence on everything — Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, Vanderpump Villa, the cheating scandal, the emotional affair, the truth behind the “sexual assault” allegation, and exactly how the show used his real life as the season’s main storyline without ever protecting him. For the first time on camera, Marciano goes scene by scene and exposes what REALLY went down: the FaceTime calls, the husband in the background, the truth-or-dare kiss, the emotional connection, the jealousy, the betrayal, and the moment he learned a cast member accused him of sexual assault on national television. He reveals how production brought him in under one contract, used him as the cliffhanger for an entire season, then left him in the dark while the internet went wild. Jeremy and the crew break down the mental toll, the producer manipulation, the power games, and what actually happens behind the scenes of reality TV that viewers never see.
