High On Life

Missable
The key to unlocking this achievement is timing. If the Drum is gifted too soon Globo won't progress at all. If you gift the Drum too late into the Story you'll run out of time and not see him appear on TV.

Here is both a video and text step by step guide on getting this to pop for you every time:

1. Start a new game.
2. Defeat 9-Torg in the Slums.
3. On your way home speak to Globo and his friend.
4. Hand in 9-Torg's bounty.
5. Defeat & hand in 2nd bounty (Douglas or Kurbis).
6. Don't start the 3rd bounty!
7. Buy the Drum from Mr. Keeps Pawn shop (78 Pesos).
8. Gift Globo the Drum.
9. Defeat & hand in 3rd bounty.
10. Check in on Globo - He now has a crowd.
11. Defeat & hand in 4th bounty (Dr. Giblets or Skrendel Bros).
12. Check in on Globo - He's gone but talk to his friend.
13. Defeat & hand in 5th bounty.
14. Check in on Globo during Blim City Invasion mission - Globo posters everywhere.
15. Defeat & hand in Nipulon's bounty.
16. Warp to Blim City and Globo should be visible on the TV Screens beside Blorto's Shop.

Most of the check-in steps aren't required for the achievement to pop. But it's nice to see the progression is moving and hasn't bugged out. Once you see Globo on TV the achievement should pop.

Hello everyone, so first things first this one was very tricky for me as it took me four tries to get it, so what you need to do first is when you do the Torg bounty do not I repeat, do not go to Globo and give him the drum what you need to do is finish another bounty I did Douglas first, after turning the Douglas bounty I went and talk to Globo and his friend -or father- then I went and purchased the drum and I went back to Globo and give him the drum exhausted all conversation options. Then what do you need to do is do another bounty which would be Kurbis then you turn the bounty. and you’ll meet up with the mayor after that go outside the house and you will see the crowd and it would be daytime then exhaust all conversation options with the father and Globo then you would proceed to buy the jet pack, and the daytime will change to night time. Then do another bounty. It would be the brothers after you finish up and turn the bounty go outside at night time you will not see Globo you will see his father. Exhaust all conversation options with him and you’ll find out that he signed a record deal with a label company. then do the doctor goblets bounty and then turn it. Then you will get the news about the sister and go to Applebee’s on your way to Applebee’s. You will see Globos posters on the wall, but you will not see his performance on TV. You have to finish the next bounty, which is the one before the last boss after that turn it do not talk to Glenn for final preparation instead go to Blim city automatically the video of Globo will be played on TV in the café on a loop you do not have to reload the checkpoint and it will be in daytime .
PS do not reload the checkpoint before finishing watching the Globo performance on TV on the mentioned day because if you do all the posters will disappear, and the video will not be shown.
Hopefully this answers all your questions about this horrendous achievement.

Highly missable, and spans across the entire game.

There are a few steps to completing this, and they should be started as early as possible in order to allow for all steps to take place. They are ass follows:
1. Wait until AFTER you complete either Kubris or Douglas Bounty. (If given too early, the next stages will not progress)
2. Talk to Globo's dad in Blim City, located outside of the house, slightly to the right, by a building.
3. Go to the Pawn Shop and buy the Drum for 78 credits,
2. Gift the drum to Globo and his dad in Blim City.
3. Return to Globo after completing 1-2 bounties and he will have a crowd near him cheering him on. Talk to the dad, and they'll thank you.
4. After completing another 1-2 bounties, return to this location and speak to the dad again. He will mention Globo was signed to a label.
5. A bit later on (even after the final boss), Globo posters can put up around Blim City. If they do, you can watch him performing on TV in Blim City to unlock this.

NOTE: Many people are reporting that this process does not work correctly on a 2nd playthrough or game save. In many cases, it seems like on subsequent plays of the game, the crowd does not appear.

POST-JANUARY 2023 PATCH

Most of the guides previously posted require you to do specific things at specific times. As of right now, this is no longer necessary. Simple guide is as follows:

1. Once you get to Blim City, buy the drum from the pawn shop. It's on the display case on the right and costs 78 pesos.
2. Give the drum to Globo. Globo is sitting against the wall to the right of the house. He's the one with a butt for a face.
3. Do a bounty. You will see a crowd near Globo. Talk to the guy next to him.
4. Do another bounty. Globo is no longer there. Talk to the guy again.
5. Do another bounty. Globo will now be on the TV. Look at him on the TV to obtain the achievement. (NOTE: He appears on both the TVs in Blim City and the TV in the house living room. I'm not sure if seeing him in the house living room TV will pop the achievement.)

After defeating the second boss (Douglas or Krubis), check the area to the right of your house for Globo and his dad, purchase the Drum from the Pawn Shop in Blim City for 78 Pesos. Speak with both of them and agree to give Globo the Drum. Complete the next bounty and return to this location to see Globo has a crowd. Speak with both of them. Then, complete another bounty and return to the same area again to find just the dad. He will tell you that Globo was signed to a music label. Now continue doing bounties and checking the café TVs across from Blorto's in Blim City for Globo's TV appearance.

I see everyone saying not to buy the drum after 9Torg, but I did. Also, before Applebee’s I went out into town to check to see if he would be on TV before I moved on, and he was. Achievement finally popped, my 4th playthrough.

Here are the steps that worked for me.

Defeat 9Torg.

Talked to the father and son

Bought drum and brought it back.

Defeated Douglas.

The crowd appeared and I talked to the dad, exhausting all his options. Talk to him until he says nothing else.

Defeated Krugin

Talked to father and he said kid got a record deal. Kid was gone.

Defected Dr.

Posters appeared.

Defeated the 3 brothers.

Before leaving for Applebees, went to check to see if movie would play. There was a poster I’d never noticed before on a stand in between the Kiosk and the place where the father and son were. It could have appeared with the other posters but I can’t recall seeing it in any playthrough.

Walked up to TVs over by the big restaurant and he was on TV. I watched it for several seconds and achievement popped. Freaking finally.

This is a developing achievement that will only progress as you play the rest of the story line!

When you gain access to Blim and are asked to go to the Pawn Shop for the thruster dodger, you will find a blue drum on the counter. Purchase the drum while your there and give it to Globo and his dad who are sitting right outside the House.

Play through a bounty or two and come back. There should be a crowd (not shown in the video) in the same spot with Globo playing the drum you gave him.

Play another mission and come back. Globo should no longer be there. Talking to his dad, you learn he signed a big international record deal.

Play another mission or two and come back to the tvs in the middle of the town center and you should find Globo playing the drum you gave him on tv! From there the achievement should pop once you watch his performance on tv for a little bit.

Note: if he is not on the tv, play another mission and revisit the tvs. You can also try to reload last checkpoint as well!

Five "interactions" need to happen with Globo and his friend to complete this quest/achievement:

1. Talk to them, buy the drum and give it to Globo;
2. Talk to them when Globo's playing for an audience;
3. Talk to Globo's friend when he is by himself (He will say Globo got signed by a record label);
4. You will notice posters, about Globo's performance on TV, all over the city;
5. Watch TV anywhere in the city.

The first interaction happened after killing my first bounty (Other guides are saying you need to wait after the second bounty to give him the drum. Actually, that's not true. I bought the drum and gave it to Globo, after killing my first bounty, and I didn't even talk to them before that. When I approached them, Globo's friend immediately noticed I had the drum. So, I gave it to him).
The second one happened after killing my second bounty.
The third one happened after killing my third bounty.
The fourth one happened after "test driving" the recently bought jetpack, before the fourth bounty;
The last one happened after killing my fourth bounty.

By the way, KEEP IN MIND that:

• I did it yesterday, April 1st, on my second playthrough, since I started this quest too late on my first one (during the game's release week);
• I exhausted all dialogue options on each interaction;
• I played the whole game on xCloud.

This method worked for me. I was able to successfully do it on two separate play throughs
