not to mention the 7 children he's supporting

Anthony, i'm not sure "doing coke" is a productivity tip you would want to give to your watchers...
Opiated workflow way better; stimulants distract
For real, what’s his problem? He should’ve said Adderall.
Pepsi’s clearly the superior choice

My name is Anthony Fantano. I'm 37years old. I believe in taking care of myself, and a balanced diet and a rigorous exercise routine. In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the ice pack, I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower, I use a water activated gel cleanser. Then a honey almond body scrub. And on the face, an exfoliating gel scrub. Then apply an herb mint facial mask, which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine while listening to Hopsin. I always use an aftershave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion. There is an idea of a Anthony Fantano, some kind of abstraction, but there is no real me. Only an entity, something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our life styles are probably comparable, I simply am not there.
....Hey Drake!
This is fake- I saw nothing about maintaining those beautiful teeth of his. This only shows that Anthony Fantano has the best skin in the game. Subscribed.
I just know it's an american psycho reference and i've never seen that scene lmao
This made me laugh so hard
Nice.
Lets see Drakes card…
they dont call you the internets busiest music nerd for nothin
also, this was pretty inspiring and motivating. as someone with adhd too, especially.
I don't have ADHD and this video has honestly been slightly demotivating. He is the third highly productive youtuber that I watch, who turned out to have ADHD. This makes me think that being neurodivergent might be the true key to productivity... I hope that I'm wrong though.
@@SchlegelSchlingel no way dude, adhd is a disability, no question. he is able to put this much effort in because it's something he's really passionate about, but i assume that he, like me, would struggle in almost any other job lol. if i'm following my whims and doing things that i love, i can do a million things at a time. but if not... it's almost physically painful. adhd is caused by our brains not producing enough dopamine, so we need to squeeze every last drop of dopamine we can find out of anything we can. if i didnt have this issue, i could do a lot more.
rather than be jealous of us or admire us for adhd or whatever, i think most of us would just prefer if you understand where we're coming from and cut us some slack sometimes lol. shit's hard. sometimes it's even hard to focus on things that we love, just cause... idk... life isnt fair. seriously, if fantano can do stuff like this, you definitely can too.
@@SchlegelSchlingel ADHD is anti-productivity
@@SchlegelSchlingel ADHD hinders productivity and focus, doesn’t help it. It’s only when you really enjoy something you can zone in. For me the only thing I can do that for is gaming or watching films lol
thank you Gary Vee you really inspired me in this video I just liquidated my parents house and bought all of your nfts because I'm passionate just like you said in the video!
Lolol
I honestly admire you A LOT. Its kinda sad that most of the comments in your videos are memes because your hard work is truly inspiring. Keep It going we love you man!
I love the fact that his comments are mostly memes. Most youtubers would either get frustrated or wouldn't know how to handle it

@@BREATHER_ nah that shit was only funny 5 years ago
@@xbenci LMFAO
TIMESTAMPS/CHAPTERS:
1:52 - Passion (do what you enjoy doing and what you have interest in)
2:38 - Make the process as easy as possible (to save time, energy for the thing you are doing and focus better)
3:57 - Repetition/Practice (so it becomes almost a habit and you have the constant flow)
5:17 - Delegate (when you don't know how to do something, ask people to do it for you or explain you how to do it; if you don't have a skill of doing something, someone else might have it and you can just ask them to help you instead of trying to learn it yourself and probably waste a lot of time and effort (but learning sometimes works too, so pick whatever is better for you))
7:40 TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF (both physically and mentally, remember to take a step back sometimes, it's better to take a rest and then work with full energy than being tired, unfocused, unmotivated and have way less effectiveness that you can)
You forgot the good people at the Ridge :,(

Anthony, I know I among others of your fans really appreciate how much you do. Constantly making reviews on the newest albums and singles, and having the most consistent upload schedule
Honestly, the quality and consistency of the reviews kinda make sense to me becuase that's his bread and butter for so many years. The absolute madness of production that occurs on this channel and his streaming and his TND streams is what impresses me so much.
Among? Among who?
@@hiddengardenflowerdance among us
Among!
@@hiddengardenflowerdance Among your step moms
I hyperfocus too, and this really resonated with me. The creative process doesn’t need to be too convoluted in order to yield a quality result. Thank you for the insight, man!
My music will blow you away
this was honesly very helpful, shoutout ADHD gang!
yoooo ADHD gang lets go
Hell yeah remember Joyner got a 10 on ADHD
Everybody is ADD now...americans and their pseudodeseases for trending around the world...
ADHD gang
SO Add gang
Shout out to ADHD fr. For the negatives it brings, I can easily turn into a workhorse with tunnel vision on a particular task, more-so if I enjoy it
Y’all are lucky cause I never hyperfocus on anything useful or something I need to do rip lol
@@Bundpataka yep lol hyperfocus on everything that is a complete waste of my time is what I deal with
Anthony really has found the ADHD hacks and has harnessed them, having a straightforward, consistent, simple setup, asking for help as much as possible, forcing yourself to remember to take care of yourself on the most basic level, my ADHD ass could learn a lot
All I see is your content whenever it's posted. Never thought about how busy you might be. I can't imagine how long it takes to shave your head on top of all of this. Keep it up buddy
Yeah, a lot of cocaine
Knowing you have ADHD really explains your love and connection to Joyner Lucas' hit album ADHD.
I give his productivity a strong 9 to a light 10
I guess i take for granted how often you upload, and how much effort you put in to your content. This is a sincere thank you to you, Mr Fantano, for being a productive human. You truly are the internet's busiest music nerd.
7:40 i was so called out, thanks for this video, i'm gonna go shower now!
8:00 onwards. I needed to hear all this.
Thank you
Anthony does a lot because he's the Internet's Busiest Music Nerd, and if he starts slacking he'll just be the Internet's second busiest music nerd
4:00 am: wake up
4:05 am: take a sht
4:10 am 3: eat
5:00 am: get out of bed
5:10 am: have breakfast
This was a lot more informative and motivating than I was expecting it to be. Especially that last point about taking care of yourself.
Thanks, Fantano. ✌🏼
I was always curious about how you balanced everything, especially when you're so consistent. I'm trying to balance music reviews, Twitch streams, and art/drawing and it's EXHAUSTING. I get burnt out quite often, and it kinds sucks seeing things that I used to enjoy start being the source of some of my negative mental health. I never got tested yet but I also suspect I'm on the ADHD spectrum, from hyper-focusing on something only to just be blatantly uninterested in it or it starts feeling like a chore very quickly. I feel like the years that I spent in retail not being able to focus on my passions also made me kinda jaded lmao.
Either way, really loved hearing your thoughts on this! Really appreciate you putting this out there and trying to help!!
These tips are actually really useful. Making it as easy as possible for yourself seems like a no brainer, but it made me realise that i’m not actually doing stuff efficiently yet.
I actually really appreciate this video Anthony, seriously. Being someone who has ADHD and knowing how hard and easy at the same time it is to focus and to do things, from hyper focus to wandering thoughts, watching you do the amount of things you do and you don't let things hold you back while going even harder with new ideas and new ways to flow better, that's fucking amazing. Truly. Respect to you. very motivational honestly. Genuinely.
As an artist, all of these apply, thank you fantano, your success is inspiring
Honestly the fact that you’re this active on all your socials, putting out great quality content, makes it crazy to believe that you’re turning 56 this year!
This might be one of the most inspirational videos I've watched, no lie. Makes me want to keep trying, and to try some new things. I appreciate this video Melon :)
Thanks for this Anthony
Ok fantano if vasectomies make you 20x more productive I guess I’ll get one 🙄
Was hoping to hear more about like what a day is like for you, from the moment you wake up to when you sleep. How much you get done in a day. But this was still an interesting insight into knowing more about you.
thank u fantano. U just hyped a young aspiring content creator up. I made a second channel where I want to have honest opinions on my favorite pop culture topics, from movies, comicbooks, music and fashion - something similar to soulr and I will not worry myself about the quality being like that of a spielberg film but I will rather use what I have to make the best possible videos I can make. Again thank u so much fantano 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hey Melon been with you since you reviewed bastard in 2010 when I was just like prolly a 12 year old. I just wanna comment to tell you how you’ve been with me through a journey of self discovery. Art has always been identity/expressive mechanism for me in my life and you were like the older brother/friend I never had- in this weird internet age where you live your formative years in the interwebs. It was really great to have a glimpse inside your process. You are a genuine person, and though you’re also a performer I see the love in your work. That I have a true admiration for.
PS. Our opinions differ on a LOT of things. When it comes to music never by more than 2 points which is a lot by twitters standards (Que people that wanna 10 on MBDTF🙄((which is a solid 7 and you know it😮😂)).
Anthony’s hot take on how to get more done in the day: “Do more stuff faster”
ridge wallet, ordered. productivity, skyrocketing.
I don't have adhd but I have an anxiety/panic disorder that pretty much stops me from being able to buckle down and focus on things I want to get good at. Most of my energy is expended on trying to not lose my shit everyday and it sucks :(
watching this while putting off the laundry that’s been sitting in my room for three months, thanks anthony
literally such good advice, make things as easy for yourself as possible
Sorry you get depressed at times Melon. We’re so grateful for the work you put in 🌐❤️
I absolutely loved the authentic laugh when he plugged the ridge wallet 😂😂😂
thank you for the reminder to keep working at it every day. i really hope to one day have the kind of structure and discipline that you have with your channel, even with medication i still hyperfocus on the wrong things.
Getting those teeth back up to snuff makes our boy's job even harder.
Fuck. Turns out this whole time, the only thing holding me back was my non-sleek, non-minimal, disgusting, old, bulky, leather wallet. I could’ve just used promo code ‘melon’ for 10% off my order.
One thing I think isn't talked about enough is that most people who are starting out trying to turn a passion into a full time career are also trying to juggle another job, often one that's completely energy sapping and not actually what you want to be doing.
I work full time in education, and I'm trying to organise setting up a club night,. Not even as a career but as something I love doing regardless if it becomes viable. But the lack of energy I have after work means I'm really losing time and damaging my potential productivity as a result
He walks uphill, both ways to the RUclips store to upload videos all to feed his kids man. That says enough to me
give this is happening the 10 it deserves already
it's been 12 years bro
This isn't happening
This is Happening is unlistenable garbage with occasional moments of quality
My mans is ADHD and getting all this done meanwhile I don’t even want to get outta bed
Thanks for sharing this, really appreciate your insights. The peek behind the curtain is something I wish more people understood about the creative process. It’s WAY deeper than I feel like people realize.
“It’s sleek it’s minimal”
Thanks for the advice, I have been considering doing a blog or video series purely for personal enjoyment and these tips are golden.
Thank you Mr. Fantanyl. I realized along time ago how consistent your upload schedule was and that's the main reason why I pretty much click on almost every video you upload. I try to put myself in your shoes and imagine how I'd feel not seeing my hard work being appreciated.
Honestly, Anthony is a huge inspiration to me, and I really admire how passionate and consistent he is about what he does
That vid is an actual motivian for fucking free. Thank you tbh
What a TED talk. "Productivity forever."
a minute buildup to ridge wallet had me audibly saying "oh fuck you" never change melon
I know that the comments are mostly memes and you welcome that, but I do want to give a genuine thanks for how hard you work. You’ve really expanded my music taste with your reviews and have helped me discover artists I would’ve never heard. So I want to give a genuine thanks for how hard you work and how consistent you are with content on both your channels. I can really tell your passionate about music and want to give honest, non biased critiques, even if they’re unpopular opinions you stand by them. It’s really appreciated.
You can’t just claim the title of Internet busiest music nerd without this type of grind.
Thank you! This is super helpful. It's hard to feel like the process will get faster in the beginning, but it will!
2:35 yeah that's pretty much what it feels like
Science. Thanks for the tips. The part about asking for help is very helpful for me
How to be productive
1. Ridge wallet
2. Passion
3. Make the process as easy as possible
4. Ask for help
5. Take care of yourself
The point about giving up as soon as you hit the learning curve is insanely important. I'm ADHD as hell and have meandered away most of my life so far under this impression I'm just awful at everything I do, because I never really developed meaningful skills growing up. Any attempt as an adult has always been met with severe feelings of inadequacy, but the fact is that people accomplish things they set out to do every day, and unless you're aiming for things that are genuinely unrealistic and difficult to do for even very competent people, you're probably capable of whatever it is you're trying to accomplish.
I'm kinda starting to get my act together though, and the biggest contribution has honestly been practicing basic mindfulness, as obvious as it may seem to some people. Examining the way I think about things, I've realized that I wrap pretty much every thought I have about anything up with negativity, minor or major. Even waking up and saying to myself "I feel like shit, fuck today" is insanely harmful to me, and may be for others as well. Maybe you do, and I certainly do often, but what good does it do to say? Even at my absolute most depressed moments, nothing has ever forced me to wake up and and feed my negativity in trivial ways like that, that's all me. It's hard to do, because negativity is a habit to me at this point, but I try to wake up and Identify why I feel that way, and it's usually not even that serious. If I wake up feeling sore and groggy, which I usually do, that's not the same as feeling like shit. That's just being sore and groggy, which aren't feelings that should warrant me starting my day with abject negativity, you know? They're not great feelings to have in the morning, but I'm finding that doing things as simple as adjusting how I react to minor things makes my days just a little more tolerable.
I think it has unfortunately become ingrained in our culture to feed and acknowledge minor negativity as much as we can, even broadcast it, not that I can even really blame anyone for it with the state of the world. But for me at least, continuing to do that is only going to make my life worse. It's hard to make it a habit, and I still let it get to me sometimes, but fifteen years of therapy and meds were less useful to me than doing this, so I'm convinced that for me it's worth it. I made the negativity a habit over more than a decade, I can certainly make positivity a habit if I try, that sorta thing.
I'm actually investing myself into the things I want to learn how to do now, and I'm not great, and I won't be for a long time, but I've had my fill of failure, you know? Not trying at all is easier day-to-day, but it's insanely damaging long-term. Shit's hard, man. I hope more people start to prioritize their mental health.
This video needed a better title. I thought this was gonna be him whining, but came out with a motivational boost. Good job 😊👌
Feels really great to hear stuff like this from someone who has ADHD and is successful.
I understand, Anthony. It’s hard to run a RUclips channel and be on the run from INTERPOL for multiple war crimes at the same time.
One of my next recommended videos is 'Gus Fring, Scarier Than we Think' and I think it's trying to tell me something about you Anthony.
I have ADHD too, but I don't have meds for it and I have so many problems focusing on things I need to do. I've tried to use tips from other people to work around it, but I've not been very successful. I'm easily overwhelmed by the backlog of stuff I need to do, and I feel like I don't even know how to prioritize what is important.
Was this Fantano's way of saying I am taking a break? He has not uploaded or streamed since this video came out that I am aware of.
As a long time viewer and fan I appreciate this vid, exactly what I needed to hear. Also nice knowing my favorite music critic also understands being ADHD and living life with it. Appreciate you Melon ☺️
21 Savage: How much do you do?
Fantano: A lot.

Much love, Anthony. Keep up the great work :)
I don’t know what HD is but it’s cool that Anthony had 80 of them
just found out i have adhd after 28 years. finally understanding that hyper focus thing and confused it for thinking i can focus in general... nah im ass at paying attention to anything outside of what im passionate or intensely curious about. >_> alot of shit would've been easier when i was younger if i knew, and had addy or anything to help attention wise.
Not many biracial content creator out here, you inspiring us melon.
This is motivating for me and many others ADHDers. I want to give it a go to making videos.
Also, that sponsors ad was amazing.
Lowkey needed to hear this today. Thanks!
I hate that I instantly recognized the Super Sonic Racing theme from that sped up 2 second snippet at 5:14
I wish I could say this is the longest Ridge Wallet ad I've ever watched
That wallet thing was hilarious
If this was KSG you would’ve given it a 10.
I expected this to be a shitpost video but honestly that's great advice and I will definetly try to implement some of your tips into my life. Great to see someone who also has ADHD do well and be productive etc.
Thank you so much for this video!
I've always loved your hustle Anthony, please never stop!!!
would be amazing to hear Fantano on Tim Ferriss's show one day, for this exact reason!
the realization that you sit while recording shocked me WAY more than it should have. like, did i really just assume you stood the whole time? crazy bro
*hits ketamine pen*
Wow 🤩 ADHD and uses my favorite pens @2:37! We’re almost brothers Fantanthony
Not the rig wallet plug Lmao. Perfect.
That ridge wallet and was hilarious. That is something artists today can learn from you. The art of selling out without becoming a 'sellout'
It's all in the Ridge Wallets
Do a TEDx Talk or a masterclass on routine. The whole world would take interest in that
I shit on you a lot for not reviewing certain albums (tbf, it’s from a good place still IMO, you *do* miss out on a lot of amazing and popular/famous albums just because they’re foreign) but I always still do appreciate how hard you do work on this stuff. There’s always room for improvement, but that goes for everyone and everything, but I still always appreciate how hard you *do* work regardless.
2:36 I felt that
