00:00 It seems like Elon Musk can't afford to get Mr. Beast to post on X.

00:05 Mr. Beast just politely slammed Elon Musk after the billionaire asked the creator to

00:10 post video content on X.

00:12 Mr. Beast has won creator of the year at the Streamy Awards four years in a row now, marking

00:17 him as one of, if not the top creator in the world.

00:21 Beast has become known for his larger than life videos such as building a Wonka chocolate

00:25 factory and paying for laser eye surgery for 1,000 legally blind participants.

00:31 The drama between Musk and Mr. Beast started on December 30th when the creator tweeted

00:36 that he'd just uploaded a video.

00:38 An X user then responded to that tweet writing "Upload on this platform too" and Elon

00:43 Musk agreed, chiming in with a simple "yeah".

00:46 Mr. Beast did not dance around anything when he responded to Musk bluntly, saying "My

00:51 videos cost millions to make and even if they got a billion views on X it wouldn't fund

00:55 a fraction of it.

00:57 I'm down though to test stuff once monetization is really cranking."

01:01 X has had issues with securing advertisers for the platform since Musk took over, and

01:06 the issue has yet to be resolved.
