On this episode of T.I.P, we sit down with a multi-talented California native who wears a multitude of creative hats, by the name of "M.Dot". M.Dot is a Los Angeles native byway of Pasadena, and he is a Magazine Owner, Creative Director, Fashion Designer as well as a plethora of other titles. We first start our conversation with M. Dot; whose real name is Marcus, telling us how things were for him growing up in Pasadena and how he found his creative spark early due to his family and hip hop culture which was a major influence in him knowing what he wanted to do with his life. We then go on to talk about how he started his creative journey as a rapper and producer, Which lead to creatively directing visuals for music videos later on in life. Dot explains that he played sports, basketball specifically, but he was never the typical high school student, because he didn't go to parties and hang out much with friends, because he was always either in the studio, his parents radio station or in his mother's garage doing creative things. He explains to us that how he got his name "M.Dot", was inspired by Jay-z's nickname "S.Dot Carter", but he put his own twist on the name "M. Dot" because the acronym stood for "Marcus Does Overtime'. Dot talks about how he was popular in school mainly because of being a creative and just a trendsetter, in the sense he would go to thrift stores and find pieces of clothing that he would cut up and/or sew onto peoples clothing or sneakers for extra money as a side hustle. We transition our conversation to how he later befriended 2 time NBA Champion and Los Angeles Laker, Jordan Farmar. Dot tells us how it was such a inspiration and wild experience being around Jordan and the Championship Lakers, as well as being apart of the Laker parade twice. Dot goes on to explain how that experience helped turn his hustle up and broaden his understanding of an extravagant lifestyle. A lifestyle in which he made his mind up that he wanted for himself, through his own talent, dedication, and hard work. Like usual, our listeners are definitely in for a treat, and like alway this is one you do not want to miss! So sit back and enjoy the crazy world of The Tune’d In Podcast. Yay! Yay!

Special Guest: J SNOW
On this episode of T.I.P, we sit down with a Comedian, Writer, YouTuber, Film maker and Compton native; J Snow. We first start off our conversation talking about what it was like for J Snow growing up in Compton and how during his child hood he witnessed so many traumatic things that he became numb to the fact that a lot of those things he experienced weren't normal. He goes on to elaborate about the fact that he was very much so an "outside kid", who found himself getting into random things that were both fun and mischievous. J Snow explains how growing up in the hood for him gave him a different understanding of not only survival but self awareness at a young age, because not only did his father pass away when he was young but he also had to learn a lot on his own because he was the youngest of his siblings. We later transition the conversation to a more serious topic about J Snow's life when Tun brings up the fact that Snow has a rare health condition that he has been dealing with for the entirety of his life which is Sickle Cell Anemia. J Snow goes into detail about what exactly the unfortunate health condition is, how he's had to navigate through it as a child growing up in Compton and how it has effected his social and personal life as an adult. Our conversation progresses forward as we start to talk about how he got started doing Youtube sketches in his early 20's which he was just doing for fun, but later catch the attention of a very popular website called "WorldStar Hip Hop." After gaining notoriety from his sketches via WSHH he tells us how he kept working on sketches and dropping them on his YouTube channel which eventually landed him an opportunity to write for the BET Awards, The Hip Hop Awards and The Soul Train Awards. Like usual, our listeners are definitely in for a treat and like always, this is one you do not want to miss! So sit back and enjoy the crazy world of The Tune'd In Podcast. Yay! Yay!
