KNDRX aka Cory Kendricks joins us as his album, Gumbo, slides from 3 days sitting top 10 on the Itunes hip hop charts.
We discuss his journey here, from Portland to ATX and on to Denver, CO where most of Gumbo was created.
We talk about how he had his hands in a lot of places, and stumbled upon a DJ gig backing Griselda's Conway. From there,
his solo career seemingly gets a fire lit under it. He signs with Question, and Davies Entertainment, and the rest is history.
We wrap up by talking about his next moves, and planning the perfect follow-up album. KNDRX is aimed for success and undoubtebly
will be hitting the moon.

From open mic nights in St. Croix to packed residencies in Lake Charles, LA, and finally residing in Austin Texas- Ashes of Babylon has a very unique journey. Their story is felt through the music they created over the course of 8 years; as an 8 piece, 4 part vocal harmony, multi- instrumentalist, big band horn flexing, American reggae/ dancehall fusion (breath) act. We get the details from founding members Corey Saucier, and Jacob "Deebo" Crenshaw, and also some insight as to what ultimately led to the members deciding to take an extended hiatus, at what seemed to be the pinnacle of their career. Thanks for watching!

and how it ultimately led to a successful career on the management side of the music industry. This is a great episode for

Charles “Easy Lee” Peters (@thirdrootmusic) joined us in Episode 17
Easy is a poet, songwriter, MC, and Educator. We begin at the start of his musical career- fusing southern raps with timeless soul music, and his time touring the nation as a member of a signed group, Mo’Joe.
From this point we discuss various ups, and downs that lead Easy to a passionate, and ultimately championed path in education. Finally we arrive at Easy’s current work with Third Root, a project he co-founded with Marco Cervantes (MexStep). We cover their progression, and how they found their sound working with an array of renowned musicians, and producers.
We summarize by acknowleding Easy’s persistance, and how he accomplished a union between his passion for music, and possibly an even greater purpose- as an activist, teacher, and an inspiration.
