Welcome to Heaven’s Bus Stop
Hey, I’m Happy Montana, and I write articles about music, tech, and the future-from a place I call Heaven’s Bus Stop.
It’s not just a metaphor. It’s real.
There’s a bench at the top of Runyon Canyon in Los Angeles a worn out, humble little perch overlooking the sprawl of the city. Locals call it “Heaven’s Bus Stop.” It’s not fancy. It’s not even marked. But if you’ve ever sat there, you know: it feels like something.
That spot inspired everything here.
Because Heaven’s Bus Stop isn’t about escape.
It’s about arrival.
It’s the pause between who you were and who you’re are…becoming…
Inhale before the drop.
The exact place where art, tech, soul, and hustle intersect.
This site is that pause point. Stop, motivate, plug-in, analog-style to yourself, your creativity, your reason for making all this noise in the first place.
While You’re Here…
Heaven’s Bus Stop isn’t a five-minute layover.
It’s a lifetime on the edge of the next thing.
And while you’re posted here on this dusty, earthly orbit your only job is this:
Plug into your soul.
Not the algorithm. Not the vanity metrics.
But your actual heart’s creative desire.
That thing that burns quietly until you give it a melody, a verse, a sketch, a movement.
This isn’t about chasing trends.
It’s all about transmitting truth.
So while you wait at this stop
make your stupid dreams a reality. (yeah, make so big they sound stupid!)
Be weird. Be honest. Be human.
Because heaven’s not the destination it’s what you carry into the next thing you create.
After all.. The Market Is a Clown Car
We live in absurd times. Let’s not pretend otherwise.
AI rappers are getting signed.
Playlist scams are par for the course.
Everyone’s selling $997 masterclasses on “how to go viral” (while quietly buying streams).
Meanwhile, artists like you are left wondering:
“Do I have to AI-ke it to make it?”
Answer: Absolutely.. not.
Use AI for Good (Not for Selling Out)
Let AI be your helper, not your identity thief:
- Auto-generate promo materials while you sleep
- Repurpose content without losing your soul
- Create fan funnels without becoming a sales funnel
- And yeah use it to find a joyous word that rhymes with car (Answer: star) Really. AI gives context-sensitive rhymes. Umm, buy, buy rhymezone. We had a good run.. It was fun.. That’s all I got.
But Don’t Get It Twisted
AI doesn’t dream at 2am.
It doesn’t cry in the chorus.
It doesn’t carry the soul print of your ancestors.
You do.
You are a creative node on a quantum timeline.
Your music and art carry frequencies passed from and down through generations.
When you show up and make from that place you’re not just making content.
You’re channeling legacy.
You’re planting seeds in the future.
Why I Write
I write to share what I’ve learned.
Yeah, to start, I’m kinda on a rampage against AI. To wake the peeps up.
But, ol Happy here’s gotcho back… and you’ll see my scribbles around the net..
To shine a light on tools that help you stay real.
To call out the BS, while celebrating the breakthroughs.
To remind you that you are not crazy for wanting your art to mean something.
This is Heaven’s Bus Stop.
Take a breath.
Tune in.
Then go create the next (unbig, you) thing that makes your soul hum.
This is the stop.
This is the sound.
This is the way forward.
Wooot!
