Clips are street performance and interviews; one video title notes explicit language ('Brass Band/Punk - The Stumblebums (Explicit)'), so profanity is flagged low to medium.

About gruevie
gruevie is a New York City YouTube channel that documents street performers, buskers and subway musicians through short interviews and live performance clips. Uploads date largely from 2007 and 2008, and the channel has posted nothing in the past year. Its 4,500 subscribers and roughly 27,000 median views per video suggest an audience of music fans and people interested in NYC street culture, though this is an estimate.
The channel's format is low-production, handheld and conversational, with most videos running three to six minutes. Its website, concretebeat.blogspot.com, is referenced in video descriptions for artist bios, but no website pages were available for this profile. Sponsored integrations were not found in the archived videos.
Given the inactivity, no current sponsorship rate is set. Brands wanting a music-focused NYC archive might consider it for reference or licensing conversations; a per-video rate would be calculated at $20 to $35 per 1,000 median views for long-form content, roughly $540 to $950 if the channel were active, which compares with paid ad CPMs of $10 to $30.
