LIVE: Creator's Diary

Put a couple of music lovers in a room and they’ll talk for hours, days, maybe even weeks. My friend Ron D. is an excellent drummer and fellow music lover, so shooting the sh*t with him is always a good time. He knows his music and plays practically every week so younger struggling musicians may be able to pick up a few tips. This is part 1 of 2 for the music lovers series.

15 years ago I met Shottie over the Internet. We went from being fans of each other’s music, to creating music videos together and becoming good friends. Now Shottie’s rocking his own business 24/7! Shotwellproductions.net

Hosts of "Olympia Academy", "On My Way To Church" and myself over drinks.

This show kicked off with a segment from Get Barbershop, 30 Days ago. Fifteen episodes later, I'm closing the first cycle with Popeye, owner of Get Fresh. He's doing a "few" things. Getfresh.com

After I spoke with Smitty about his son Pierce's battle with depression and addiction, I immediately wanted to speak to Pierce's sister Mandii. She had the courage to speak on her brother & addiction.

If you want to meet someone full of inspiration and life, you want to speak to Big Shot of the legendary rap group DMP and The Proz. We touched on many topics from taking care of his niece, the craft of songwriting and being inspired by others

"Music is my Kung Fu" was a quote that stood out to me when talking to Top Gee of DMP & The Proz. As you'll discover from our convo that's not the only jewel you'll pick up, if you're listening.

Circling back to the convo with Smitty, everyone deals with depression differently. The thing is to always show love, a high level of understanding, instead of judging or gossiping. Just my two cents

Popeye, owner of Get Fresh (the brand), kicked off the opening of the podcast. Why? 'Cause that's where I get my haircuts and have some real convos. In this segment we talk briefly on team building.

A realist, is a person who accepts a situation as it is and is prepared to deal with it according. When I spoke with Boogie, one of the members of DMP, it became evident that this was his lifestyle.

Doesn’t matter what it is, you won’t accomplish anything by sitting on your hands. Go after it! #univsolmc

While at the @get_fresh_barber_shop today, Popeye (@therealgetfresh) introduces me to the owner of the meal prep company @adaptlive

I met Mr. Ortiz through a mutual friend years ago. Over time we've had convos on family, fashion, music, boxing, hustling and making money. He ran a fashion line and now teaches others to be styli...

My friend Smitty, lost his son Pierce to a heroine addiction. What we found out was the underlying depression that slowly spiraled out of control and eventually took my friend/partner-in-rhyme.

If you never heard of singer-songwriter Teresa Cook, it's probably because she's spent most of her time behind the scenes writing and singing for some of your favorite artist. Here's our phone call.

Behind the scenes birth of another show "The Olympia Academy" with Benny aka Big Bone. He was the host of DLHH show that opened the door for me and many others. He's back! Sauli on the check in.

Headed for a weekend at Benny's and I just felt like giving a little insight as to what I'm doing with this outlet. What I love most about this app, is I can record anytime. Straight raw in the mix!!

I was reading a blog post by Gary V and he mentioned this app, Anchor. I thought it was the coolest little thing, so I decided to use it while I got my haircut...and BOOM a show was born!
