Abstract generation in progress

The Netflix documentary "FYRE: The King's Luxury Music Festival" reported on a "King's Music Festival," which Fyre Media CEO Billy McFarland and musician Ja Rule planned a non-existent music festival in 2017. They recruited many internet celebrities in advance, including Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber, Bella Hadid, etc., to help promote it. However, it was actually unable to be held due to various factors. Billy was even jailed for this. Unexpectedly, it was recently announced that the FYRE music festival will be held again in 2025, with VIP tickets costing as much as $5000, indicating a strong hype.

Multiple internet celebrities were paid to promote the FYRE music festival.

In 2017, Billy McFarland held the FYRE music festival to promote the Fyre app used for booking musicians, collaborating with musician Ja Rule. The event went to great lengths in its promotion, enlisting influencers like Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber, Bella Hadid, etc., without clearly indicating that it was paid promotion.

On the way to Panama, Billy McFarland stopped at the private island Norman Island owned by drug lord Carlos Lehder, and the two parties negotiated a venue rental cooperation, which mentioned not mentioning Carlos's boss, the notorious drug dealer Pablo Escobar. After everything was on track for promotion, Billy McFarland still mentioned the most famous drug dealer Pablo, so the island owner decided to cancel the cooperation between the two parties.

Billy was imprisoned for fraud and the documentary received rave reviews

As the event approached, the team urgently searched for a venue, and Billy McFarland, who had no experience in organizing music festivals, set the stage for disaster. Subsequent events unfolded as described in 'FYRE: The Greatest Party That Never Happened,' with promised luxury accommodations, delicious food, and even the music festival all turning into a mirage. Ticket holders were taken to a makeshift venue in Panama. To make matters worse, as it was a cashless event, participants had no money to pay for taxi fares.

Billy McFarland and Ja Rule were later sued for one hundred million US dollars and sentenced to six years in federal prison, with parole in 2022. The documentary was released on Netflix in 2019 with a Rotten Tomatoes rating of 7.6.

Did the community team cause trouble for the sake of launching meme coins?

After his release from prison, Billy McFarland repeatedly stated to the community that he would hold the second FYRE Music Festival. On the 24th, he even specified that it would take place from May 30th to June 2nd this year on Woman Island in Mexico. A total of 2,000 tickets will be available, priced from $1,400 to $1.1 million. Another key player in the whole event is Jerry Media, an advertising agency that manages multiple fan pages. The most well-known is @fuckjerry managed by Elliot Tebele.

The news of FYRE 2 has been widely circulated in Europe and America, but some players with a keen sense of narrative believe that the team may take advantage of the attention while it is hot to cash in (, and at the same time, North Korean hackers also have a demand for laundering money through meme coins ).

Will this article be re-enacted in 2025, the Netflix documentary 'FYRE: The Luxury Music Festival'? Specific time, location exposure first appeared in Chain News ABMedia.
