CJ The X
Philosophy Lecture: Optimized Grass Touching
How to lock in, optimize your grindset and work harder than anyone else at living a wholesome balanced meaningful life.
CJ The X a Toronto based independent artist and philosopher that began making YouTube videos in 2021. Since then they’ve amassed over 350 thousand subscribers, 15 million views, a robust crowdfunding base on Patreon, a loyal personal mailing list, and sold out lectures across the world. Their breathless interdisciplinary approach makes them one of the most unique cultural voices in the internet age, blending irreverent humour, sharp intellectualism, and earnest spirituality.
They speak passionately on an eclectic array of subjects, blending together art, religion, technology, community, and beauty in their singular style. They have developed 7 different lectures so far, each completely distinct from the rest while fitting into a cohesive whole.
When not philosophizing, CJ is a rapper and a writer, always most comfortable working on multiple things at once.
