REPARATIONS FOR FUPU

We need support to sustain our projects within FUPU as we continue to navigate sharing our art independently. We need support to be able to perform with Uhuru, who is disabled. Unfortunately accessible accommodations are limited and very expensive in this ableist world.

Thank you so much for all of your support thus far. We have been able to invest a bit into in FUPU INC, and have been able to perform a few times, but we still have a long way to go. These are some of the costs necessary to protect our art, and to ensure that our collaborators and ourselves are paid fairly for all of the labor that goes into creating and sharing art independently.

What the funds will cover:

Labor

Recording, Mixing, Mastering Costs

Accessibility, including travel to Uhuru to record his album contributions

Registering as an LLC ✔️

Band Photos

Graphics

ASCAP registration for band to fully license their songs ✔️

Bookkeeping Software so that we can account for our earnings and expenses

Merch

Laptop for recording and day to day operations ✔️

Digital Distribution

Website ✔️

Music Videos

Building team for live show experience

Travel for shows and recording as we are spread out in different lands

Note on the Album: Fuck U Pay Us almost completed recording our first studio album and then we learned that the person who recorded our album was an abuser. Although so much energy and resources went into preparing the album, we have decided not to release the recordings. We still intend to record an album, when we have the resources to do so.
