Strategic Business Plan & Project Overview

Tom Jensen — Lyricist / Founder

29 Years. ~495 Songs. G to X. A Strategy No One Else Is Running.

Version 19 — Working Draft

I. Project Overview

The Artist

Name: Tom Jensen

Years of Work: 29 years

Catalog: 34 collections (24 Set Lists + 10 Song Lists)

Total Songs: ~495 (120 recorded, ~375 awaiting music and voices)

Website: collabtunes.com

Notable Achievement: Creator of the Bisexual Anthem

The Work

A massive, multi-thematic body of work spanning nearly three decades. This is not a collection of songs. It is a life's work — a document of survival, evolution, grief, rage, tenderness, addiction, recovery, love, loss, politics, parody, and the relentless pursuit of truth through rhyme. The catalog spans G to X:

Tender romance and devotion (G/PG)

Addiction narratives and recovery (PG-13)

Political critique — genocide, state violence, imperialism (PG-13/R)

Explicit sexual content and transgressive satire (R/X)

Spiritual reflection and existential philosophy (G/PG)

Social commentary and class critique (PG-13)

War trauma and survivor's guilt (PG-13)

Mental health, depression, suicide narratives (PG-13/R)

Parody and humor (R/X)

Key Collaborators

The following musicians and vocalists have already contributed to songs built from these lyrics. Their names are in the chain. Their rights are already established. This is not a plan waiting to be tested. It is already working.

Lady Weaver — Vocalist / songwriter — primary muse and founding collaborator (deceased)

Justin Justice — Musician / vocalist — co-writer on multiple songs including 'Fresco'

Klaus Bluetner — Musician — international collaborator

Tyler Thompson — Musician / vocalist

Bryan Magsayo — Vocalist — performed live in China

Lai Youttitham — Musician

Rebekah Ann Curtis — Vocalist

William Elmore — Musician

Tiffany Anne — Vocalist

Jon Jacobs — Musician

Justin Osowiecki — Musician

Big Suna — Musician

Sandy, Lynette, and others — Vocalists and contributors

120 songs have been completed and released using this model. Every contributor is verified. The chain already exists. Anyone who builds on these songs is building on a foundation that already has proof of concept.

II. The Rating System

The catalog is rated G through X. This is not a marketing gimmick — it is a navigation tool. Every collection is preceded by a detailed trigger warning. The rating system allows musicians, audiences, and collaborators to find exactly what they are looking for without wading through content they did not want.

G — Inoffensive / Loving. Safe for all ages. Wholesome, spiritual, or universally positive themes. No profanity, no sexual content, no violence.

PG — Mild themes. Rare mild profanity ('hell,' 'damn'), romantic themes without explicit detail, no drug glorification.

PG-13 — Moderate explicit content. Frequent mild profanity or occasional strong profanity, implied sexual situations, drug/alcohol references with anti-messaging, serious themes handled with artistic intent.

R — Strong explicit content. First-person narrator committing crimes, explicit sexual content, shock with artistic framing.

X — Hardcore. Pornographic intent, degradation as primary purpose, shock without artistic framing.

Catalog Breakdown by Song Count

G / PG — ~25% — ~120 songs

PG-13 — ~40% — ~200 songs

R — ~25% — ~125 songs

X — ~10% — ~50 songs

TOTAL — 100% — ~495 songs

Key Insight: The center of gravity is PG-13 — serious themes, real craft, artistic intent. The G/PG material (~120 songs across 5 entire clean collections) is the foundation of tenderness and trust-building. The R material is significant and intentional. The X material (~50 songs) is a small but strategic edge that filters audiences and establishes that this project does not play by industry rules.

III. G/PG Collections — The Foundation

There are entire collections that are G or PG throughout. These are not isolated clean songs buried in otherwise explicit albums. These are complete collections of tenderness, devotion, romance, and spiritual depth. They prove the range of the catalog and serve as the entry point for audiences who need to trust the work before they are ready for the edge.

Set List 14 — Lady Weaver trilogy — healing, romance, spirituality — pure heart

Set List 19 — Lady Weaver trilogy — romance, devotion, nostalgia — tender

Song List 5 — Lady Weaver trilogy — hopeful romance — warm, accessible

Song List 8 — Devotion, purpose — inspiring

Song List 9 — Spiritual, connection — meditative

These 5 collections alone represent approximately 60 songs that are clean entry points for any audience. An additional ~60 G/PG songs appear throughout other collections, bringing the total to approximately 120 G/PG songs.

The first three G/PG collections — Set List 14, Set List 19, and Song List 5 — were written specifically about and for Lady Weaver, the vocalist and collaborator who passed away from cancer. They are a memorial to her. They are the most tender work in the catalog. They are where the project begins.

IV. Artistic Philosophy: The Anti-Disney / Reverse Mossad Strategy

The Disney Model — What This Project Undoes

The music industry has a well-worn playbook for managing artists. It is designed to extract maximum profit while leaving the artist exposed, controlled, and ultimately disposable.

1. Create innocent, polished, marketable child star.

2. Audience falls in love with the innocence.

3. Child star breaks free and becomes hypersexual or provocative.

4. Media feasts on the corruption narrative.

5. Profit from the whiplash.

The dynamic: Lure with innocence. Betray it. Profit from the fallout. The artist is a product. The audience is the mark.

The Reverse Strategy — What This Project Does Instead

This project inverts the entire playbook. It leads with the edge, not the innocence. The filter comes first. The reward comes after. No one gets betrayed because no one was lied to.

1. Lead with the hardcore, the explicit, the transgressive. Filter hard.

2. Audience who stays has already proven they can handle the full range.

3. Reveal the beauty, tenderness, real craft, and serious political critique.

4. No one feels manipulated because the truth was always on the first page.

The dynamic: Filter first. Reward the survivors with depth. They earned access to the real work.

V. The 8 Mile Strategy — Pre-Empting Every Attack

In 8 Mile, Eminem's character Rabbit lists every insult his opponent could use against him before the opponent can say it. This catalog applies the same strategy. Every possible attack has already been pre-empted by the work itself.

'You're a pornographer' — The work went further than anyone would accuse.

'You're a radical' — The politically controversial content was written first, loudest.

'You're unstable' — The darkest material is on the page, owned completely.

'You're a bisexual slut' — The Bisexual Anthem was written. The sexuality is owned on the creator's terms.

'You're an asshole who doesn't collaborate' — Every musician in the world is invited to turn these 34 albums into their 34 albums.

'You're a hypocrite' — The catalog has loving G songs and hardcore X songs. Both are real. Both are owned.

The catalog is the defense. Everything that could be used as an attack is already inside the work, acknowledged louder and with more craft than any critic could deploy it.

VI. The Business Model — Two-Track Release

The business model has two primary tracks that work together and reinforce each other. Track 1 builds name recognition and proves commercial value. Track 2 turns that recognition into a sustainable revenue ecosystem and community. Both tracks feed into a third phase: the payday.

Track 1 — Free Lyric Licensing

All lyrics are made available for free use with one mandatory condition: attribution. Every use of any lyric by any musician, anywhere in the world, for any purpose, must credit: Lyrics by Collaborhythm Collabtunes' Tom Jensen.

This is not charity. This is strategy. Every version, every cover, every performance becomes an advertisement for the catalog.

What: License all ~495 lyrics for free use permanently.

Condition: Mandatory attribution on every use.

Terms: Non-exclusive only.

Commercial Use: Tracked. Musicians may profit from their versions.

Goal: Name ubiquity.

Scale: Cover of a cover of a cover — the chain compounds indefinitely.

Track 2 — Live Interactive Shows + Revenue-Share App

This is the physical and digital infrastructure layer. Live shows where musicians and audience members co-create songs in real time. An app that tracks who contributes what. Revenue sharing that turns passive listeners into active stakeholders.

Physical Venue: A bar, coffeehouse, or flexible space near public transportation where music is made live.

Online Component: A live moderator relays online audience input directly to performers on stage.

The App: Registers users, logs every contribution, and tracks timestamps as proof.

Revenue Share: Contributors get 3-10% of song revenue depending on contribution size.

Goal: Turn passive listeners into active collaborators.

The lottery ticket concept: Each of the ~495 songs is a lottery ticket that has not yet been scratched. The physical venue is the place where people come to scratch them.

The Covering Songs Framework — Legal Foundation

Rule 1: You can cover a song without permission once it has been officially released. All 120 existing songs are officially released.

Rule 2: You must pay mechanical royalties to the songwriter. The lyricist waives royalty collection on lyrics. Attribution is the cost of use.

Rule 3: You cannot change the song too much without permission. Permission to extend, rework, translate, or build on any lyric is granted in the license itself.

Rule 4: Video requires extra licenses. The lyricist will never claim monetization on a video that uses the lyrics with music someone else created.

Rule 5: Live performances are usually covered by venue licensing. Play these songs anywhere.

Rule 6: You cannot strip names from the chain. Strip a name from the chain and you lose permission to use the lyrics.

VII. The Payday — What Happens After the Catalog Is Free

The free catalog is the engine. The payday is the destination it builds toward. Once the name is ubiquitous, once thousands of versions exist across every platform, once the commercial value of the lyrics has been demonstrated by the market itself — the calculus changes for new work.

1. Free catalog builds the name.

2. Demand for new work skyrockets.

3. Announce that new lyrics will be exclusive and paid.

4. Artists, labels, and publishers come to the table.

5. Sell a new album of 10-12 songs for $500k or more. Exclusive first use only. Writer credit is always retained.

What is actually being sold: exclusive first use of new work backed by 29 years of proven material and a name that is already everywhere.

VIII. Legal and Business Protections

Every component of this model has been designed with legal protection in mind. The goal is a structure that cannot be bought, captured, or closed by any corporate entity.

Register all copyrights.

Use non-exclusive licenses only.

Require mandatory attribution.

Use a terms of use agreement.

Track contributions through the app.

Maintain a verified contributor chain.

Use neutral third-party dispute resolution.

Rely on community enforcement.

Creator retains all rights.

Corporate capture is structurally blocked.

IX. What This Project Has That Most Artists Don't

29 years of work.

120 recorded songs already released.

Verified contributor chain.

G/PG foundation of approximately 120 songs.

A clear artistic identity.

A proven release strategy.

Legal structure in place.

Range across all ratings.

The Bisexual Anthem.

The 8 Mile defense.

A complete emotional arc.

X. The Emotional Arc — The Weight and the Why

29 years of writing. Starting at 16 on a bathroom wall. Continuing through every job, every city, every relationship, every loss.

Hearing Bob Dylan's 'Like a Rolling Stone' at 17 in the car with his father, driving to the laundromat in Danversport. Knowing in that moment what he wanted to do for the rest of his life.

10,000 YouTube subscribers. 120 songs made with musicians from around the world. A working model. Then stopping. Deleting the channels. Losing the passion.

Lady Weaver — the female John Lennon. The greatest singer he ever heard. Three years of messages, emails, Skype calls, phone calls. Going there for three months. It not working out. Coming back crushed.

15 years of being a dented can. Not making music. Not connecting. Just writing, refining, waiting.

An email from Lady Weaver's mother. She had died of cancer. She left behind a fiancé, a son, and young babies.

Coming back. Healing. Set List 22, 23, 24 — made in the last two years. Two of the definitive works. The cave finally opening.

The creator is not afraid. He has been strategic — even during the years when it did not look like strategy. The 15-year pause stopped him from releasing work before it was ready.

The catalog is not just 495 songs. It is a life that got shaped, compressed, and poured into words. And now it is ready to go.

XI. What Is Needed Now — A Call to Partners

The creator has taken this as far as one person with a pen, a notebook, and a phone can go. The catalog is done. The strategy is clear. The model is designed. What is missing is the team, the space, and the resources to launch.

The Personal Ask

A guaranteed weekly salary — enough to pay bills and focus on the work.

Basic health coverage.

A sign-on bonus as a show of good faith and seriousness.

A percentage of revenue generated from this venture across all streams.

The creator does not need to be famous. He does not need to be the frontman. He is better behind the scenes — making songs, generating ideas, serving as the strategic voice on key decisions.

What a Business Partner Brings

CEO-level organizational skills and the ability to build and manage a team.

Contacts in music, venue management, tech development, or investment.

Vision for the larger potential.

Resources to fund the launch phase.

The Physical Space

Flexible — capable of hosting live music creation, not just performance.

Hospitable — able to sell food, drinks, merch, and the experience itself.

Accessible — near public transportation.

Wired for streaming — so the online audience can participate in real time.

What This Gives Back to Artists

Ownership of what they make. Always.

Credit that travels with the work. Forever.

A share of revenue that cannot be legally stripped from them.

A dispute process that does not require a label deal or a retainer.

A community with a stake in protecting their contribution.

A system where the person who actually makes something is the person who gets paid for it.

XII. Summary — The Three Moves

1. Free Catalog Release

~495 lyrics released free with mandatory attribution. Non-exclusive. Permanent. Cover of a cover of a cover — the chain compounds. This builds name ubiquity and proves commercial value through market action.

2. Community App + Live Shows

Physical venue + online stream. Real-time song creation. App tracks contributions. Contributors get 3-10% of revenue auto-split. This turns passive listeners into active stakeholders.

3. The Payday

New exclusive album of 10-12 songs sold for $500k+. Exclusive first use only. All copyrights retained. Free catalog remains free forever. This monetizes the demand created by the first two moves.

This is the playbook. 29 years. ~495 songs. G to X. A licensing model designed to stay open. A chain that cannot be bought, closed, or captured. A strategy that no one else is running — because it required 29 years to build the catalog that makes it possible.

When you are ready, it is yours to drop.
