0:04 Speaker 2: Hello, Yo, Yo, what's the worry you are y'all doing?

0:08 Speaker 1: Hey? Good? Good good.

0:09 Speaker 2: Yeah.

0:09 Speaker 1: I'm sorry you couldn't be here with us live in studio,

0:12 Speaker 1: but it's good to talk to you via phone.

0:14 Speaker 2: Work.

0:14 Speaker 1: Are you in Boston right now?

0:17 Speaker 2: Yeah? I'm in Boston right now. Man. You have a

0:19 Speaker 2: whole show tonight the Lords. You and French part of

0:21 Speaker 2: Jim Jones's artist I went Brockton whoever was in Boston

0:25 Speaker 2: and she I'll pull ups and be a vibe.

0:27 Speaker 1: Excellent, excellent. Now, tell us about yourself because you obviously

0:32 Speaker 1: you know you're a musician, but you also do you

0:34 Speaker 1: host a radio show and podcast.

0:38 Speaker 2: Yeah, so basically my you know, for everybody, I don't

0:41 Speaker 2: know why you are in when you you know, you

0:42 Speaker 2: save a old g Hontow represent Talk of the Town.

0:45 Speaker 2: I am the CEO of Talk to Town six and

0:47 Speaker 2: seven podcasts. I used to do music, but I stopped

0:50 Speaker 2: doing music. I'm more so and you know, going showcases

0:54 Speaker 2: and you know, being the pop ups for local businesses,

0:58 Speaker 2: you know, and that's big, you know basically mean now

1:02 Speaker 2: theaically go showcases, let artists come on the stage, you know,

1:04 Speaker 2: you know, do what they do, showcase their craft, and

1:07 Speaker 2: you know that's fun doing it.

1:09 Speaker 1: Now, I'm curious what is it that caused you to

1:13 Speaker 1: make that switch, because, like you said, you used to

1:15 Speaker 1: do music, but now you're you're instead of creating your

1:18 Speaker 1: own music, you're more interested. It sounds like you're just

1:20 Speaker 1: more interested in helping other artists. Was there something specific

1:25 Speaker 1: that precipitated you kind of shifting your focus over to

1:29 Speaker 1: helping others?

1:32 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just felt like there was so many artists

1:34 Speaker 2: out here and not enough help. There was like there's

1:37 Speaker 2: a lot of artists out here, but there's not enough

1:39 Speaker 2: people that feut here, don't showcases for these artists to

1:41 Speaker 2: come out and perform and you know, do what they

1:44 Speaker 2: love to do. So I just felt like I wanted

1:47 Speaker 2: to make that switch. Instead of being the artist, I'll

1:49 Speaker 2: be the person that you know, provide the opportunity.

1:51 Speaker 1: Sure, sure, excellent. And how long has Talk of the

1:54 Speaker 1: Town existed? How long have you been doing that show?

1:57 Speaker 2: Three years? And now three years? We just celebrated three

2:29 Speaker 1: Who did we have on the show? Who was talking

2:30 Speaker 1: about Charlie Clips? You remember? No, was it? Oh? It

2:33 Speaker 1: might have been mister Goodbars because we're talking about battle

2:36 Speaker 1: Rop Oh that's who was Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, he

2:39 Speaker 1: was mentioning Charlie Clips. Yeah. So what do you do

2:41 Speaker 1: on Top of the Town? Is it an interview or

2:43 Speaker 1: do they perform or how does that work?

2:47 Speaker 2: So on the podcast we I basically interview everybody, interview artists,

2:51 Speaker 2: celebrity says and stylists. Whatever you do. Basically I done

2:55 Speaker 2: probably covered and interviewed. I also do like food review,

3:00 Speaker 2: restaurant reviews. I do a little you know, tricky trippy episodes.

3:05 Speaker 2: I then did a stream episode before, so you know,

3:07 Speaker 2: it's it's basically all content type thing, Like we just

3:11 Speaker 2: shot the Popya balloon, the fond Love episode, so that's

3:13 Speaker 2: dropping real soon. So it's basically like, you know, everything

3:16 Speaker 2: that you could think of, but mainly podcasting. Yeah, it's

3:20 Speaker 2: different channels, but mainly podcasting.

3:22 Speaker 1: Okay. And how often does it come out? Is it

3:24 Speaker 1: weekly or you've got a lot on it every week?

3:27 Speaker 1: Every week? Yeah, excellent, every week. Do you have a

3:31 Speaker 1: Is there a particular episode of the show that's really

3:34 Speaker 1: kind of blown up where you just got a lot

3:36 Speaker 1: of traffic? Have you had anything that went viral, any

3:39 Speaker 1: particular interviews that people don't seem really interested in.

3:42 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we had a few. We had the episode

3:45 Speaker 2: with uh Charlie quits will close. You have the episode

3:49 Speaker 2: with Bobby Schmurder. We had one episode, the Shoom episode

3:52 Speaker 2: that went viral. We were I am episode when it

3:56 Speaker 2: got Yeah, we have one episode when a guy came

3:58 Speaker 2: on in eight straight Glee marijuana like he just ate

4:01 Speaker 2: week like it was it was crazy.

4:03 Speaker 1: Oh my god.

4:04 Speaker 2: Yeah, it gets it gets crazy, like it gets real crazy.

4:08 Speaker 2: But my favorite episode, I tell everybody this had to

4:11 Speaker 2: be the part one with Missiana Bean from BT. She

4:16 Speaker 2: was the first one to show me nothing but the

4:17 Speaker 2: utmost love. She came on for part two and then

4:21 Speaker 2: he's just been walked in ever since. So that's probably

4:23 Speaker 2: my favorite episode.

4:24 Speaker 1: Okay, okay, And where do you do it? Where do

4:26 Speaker 1: you do? You have a do you record these in

4:28 Speaker 1: a podcast studio or are you out and about remotely

4:32 Speaker 1: or how does that work?

4:33 Speaker 2: So I have my business partner, Hugh shout out to

4:36 Speaker 2: my guy and anybody that needs a studio when y'all

4:38 Speaker 2: come to mask me. She's happening with Undeniable Sound. He

4:40 Speaker 2: literally does everything everything, okay, recording to you know, to editing,

4:47 Speaker 2: to videos to all of that. He actually shoot you

4:49 Speaker 2: shot all of my episodes for my podcast, so tapping

4:52 Speaker 2: with him Underniable Sound. He's in my bio's under every

4:56 Speaker 2: video in my YouTube. So Undeniable Sound, Undeniable SAMD.

5:00 Speaker 1: She's happ and that oh that's cool. Does he work

5:04 Speaker 1: with other podcasters as well?

5:07 Speaker 2: He can, but he mainly works with me because you

5:09 Speaker 2: know we that's my business partner. So yeah, and he's

5:12 Speaker 2: he's also an artist as well, So any like any

5:15 Speaker 2: showed that I have, y'all probably don't see him on

5:18 Speaker 2: to see him on.

5:18 Speaker 1: The flyers, so oh, very cool, very cool. And where

5:22 Speaker 1: are you from?

5:24 Speaker 2: I'm from Dorchester, Boston, mass Dorchester born and raised, grew

5:27 Speaker 2: up there.

5:27 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I was born in Boston. Yeah yeah, yeah,

5:31 Speaker 1: Jenny was born in Boston too.

5:32 Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh had a connection.

5:35 Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go. How is uh? How's the hip

5:41 Speaker 1: hop scene changed there over the years. I'm a little

5:43 Speaker 1: you know, I I I talked to a lot of

5:45 Speaker 1: hip hop artists from from up here, but not really

5:48 Speaker 1: too many from Boston. I don't know what, at least

5:50 Speaker 1: not lately, has the scene changed. Is it more competitive

5:53 Speaker 1: than it used to be?

5:55 Speaker 2: I wouldn't say more competitive. I always there's more on

5:57 Speaker 2: the map. He got more people that take in their

6:00 Speaker 2: craft series that's actually going and dropping, not even weekly

6:06 Speaker 2: like they'll drop every two days. Yeah, you feel what

6:08 Speaker 2: I'm saying. So it's just like I wouldn't say it's

6:12 Speaker 2: more competition. More wise, I would say there's more people

6:15 Speaker 2: showing that they're hungry and just showing that they basically

6:18 Speaker 2: got that talent in the city.

6:19 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I was curious because one of the things

6:22 Speaker 1: that we talked about a lot on this show, it's

6:24 Speaker 1: really a recurring subject, is how the Internet and how

6:28 Speaker 1: social media has changed everything and how it affects the

6:30 Speaker 1: music industry. And you know, hip hop artists tend to

6:34 Speaker 1: be very prolific. You know, there's a lot of you know,

6:37 Speaker 1: a lot of rhymes that the most hip hop artists

6:40 Speaker 1: that I meet, you know, they're constantly writing and they're

6:42 Speaker 1: always making new new tracks. So it's now you have

6:46 Speaker 1: a delivery system with social media where you can have

6:49 Speaker 1: an idea, record something that day and get it out immediately.

6:54 Speaker 1: So and and to kind of to be able to

6:58 Speaker 1: promote something, well, let me ask you this, so podcast

7:00 Speaker 1: like Talk of the Town, how did you what was

7:03 Speaker 1: your strategy in terms of promoting that. You're obviously successful

7:06 Speaker 1: with it. You've had some some pretty big guests, and

7:08 Speaker 1: you're getting a lot of traffic with it and podcasting,

7:12 Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of competition. What's been your

7:14 Speaker 1: strategy to really put that out there and to have

7:18 Speaker 1: the success that you've had.

7:20 Speaker 2: Being outside, literally being outside of every event that you

7:25 Speaker 2: could think of, even if it's not my event. I

7:27 Speaker 2: make sure me and my brother who the outside. We

7:30 Speaker 2: have the cameras to do interviews or artists, but we

7:32 Speaker 2: just do random interviews just you know, just to catch

7:34 Speaker 2: some content. So, yeah, this is being outside showing support

7:37 Speaker 2: to others, you know, and hopefully getting the support back,

7:40 Speaker 2: you know, what I'm saying, because that's one thing I

7:42 Speaker 2: will say out here, there is a lack of support.

7:45 Speaker 2: But we're fixing that. We're getting we're getting better with that.

7:49 Speaker 2: So yeah, I was just saying being outside and just

7:52 Speaker 2: being being present.

7:55 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're out there putting the work in, that's for sure,

7:58 Speaker 1: and that's what it takes. Yeah, It's like, you know,

8:00 Speaker 1: in the music industry, a lot of people get into it,

8:02 Speaker 1: whether it's as an artist or you know, or or

8:05 Speaker 1: doing something else, and they and they think it's going

8:08 Speaker 1: to be easy, and they think if they put something

8:09 Speaker 1: out there that you know, people are just going to

8:12 Speaker 1: come to them, and it's really you know, you have

8:13 Speaker 1: to put the work in, you have to build, and

8:15 Speaker 1: that's exactly what you're doing. So I commend you. Has

8:19 Speaker 1: the has the podcast changed over the three years? Has

8:22 Speaker 1: it kind of evolved is it? Or or has it

8:25 Speaker 1: kind of stayed the same in terms of what the

8:27 Speaker 1: original concept was.

8:29 Speaker 2: Oh? No, it definitely evolved. My very first episode, My

8:34 Speaker 2: very first episode was with Trevor Holmes from out of

8:37 Speaker 2: Boston as well, so you know, it definitely evolved. Now

8:40 Speaker 2: you could tell the difference from there to now. You

8:43 Speaker 2: can see how like I wasn't as confident back then,

8:47 Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, I didn't really know if

8:49 Speaker 2: I really want to do this, But now you can tell, like,

8:52 Speaker 2: this is what I want to do. So it definitely

8:55 Speaker 2: has evolved with me, evolved in my personality, evolved with

8:58 Speaker 2: the content and the way I create the content, you know,

9:02 Speaker 2: and my different ideas. So at first there was just

9:05 Speaker 2: gonna be a podcast strictly a podcast, but now I'm

9:08 Speaker 2: literally covering all types of content that will, you know,

9:11 Speaker 2: either make you laugh, you know, make you sit down

9:14 Speaker 2: and think, or whatever the case may be.

9:15 Speaker 1: So right, right, No, that's excellent. Is everything available online?

9:20 Speaker 1: Is the entire three years if people want to go

9:22 Speaker 1: back and kind of go through the archive, Is everything

9:24 Speaker 1: up and available?

9:26 Speaker 2: Yep, yep. You can go right on top of the

9:28 Speaker 2: Town six one seven on YouTube there on ig so

9:30 Speaker 2: it's my very first post and just scroll up. Excellent,

9:33 Speaker 2: you'll see the evolution.

9:35 Speaker 1: Excellent, excellent. And I think did we meet you through

9:38 Speaker 1: our friend Hope the rapper? Is that how we met you?

9:40 Speaker 2: Yes? No, yes, yes, that's my brother right there.

9:43 Speaker 1: Yeah.

9:44 Speaker 2: He has him performing August twenty third for my birthday

9:47 Speaker 2: bash with Charlie clips excellent case. He will be hitting

9:50 Speaker 2: the stage. He shall hope the rapper.

9:52 Speaker 1: Oh, very cool, very yeah, he's amazing. We love him.

9:54 Speaker 1: Has he been on I assume he's been on the podcast.

9:57 Speaker 2: Now he hasn't. He hasn't been an episode yet. Surprisingly,

10:00 Speaker 2: he's been on about about eighty of my showcases, but

10:04 Speaker 2: never on the podcast. That's kind of crazy. Oh no,

10:06 Speaker 2: we gotta make that happen.

10:07 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm surprised. Something to look forward.

10:10 Speaker 2: Yeah, we got to get you. We gotta get you

10:12 Speaker 2: up on the podcast too.

10:13 Speaker 1: Absolutely, we would love it. Definitely, count us in definitely.

10:18 Speaker 1: And what now, when you talk about showcases, for some

10:20 Speaker 1: of our listeners will know what you mean because we uh,

10:23 Speaker 1: we know that we have a lot of people in

10:25 Speaker 1: the music industry who listen to our show. But but

10:27 Speaker 1: for people who don't know what exactly is a showcase

10:29 Speaker 1: and how is that different from a regular show.

10:32 Speaker 2: So a showcase is basically you can get I like

10:37 Speaker 2: gathering artists, so I probably do about ten to fifteen

10:40 Speaker 2: artists on my lineups. We get everybody the opportunity or

10:42 Speaker 2: whatever the case may be, so you know, they let

10:44 Speaker 2: them come up whether they want to perform seven minutes.

10:46 Speaker 2: I do two different things to see the seven minutes

10:49 Speaker 2: or ten minutes, just to you know, they depending on

10:53 Speaker 2: the comfortability of whatever the case may be. And you know,

10:56 Speaker 2: they come up, they do, they do, they think. So

10:58 Speaker 2: if you're an artists out there, if you make music,

11:00 Speaker 2: you have you've never been on the stage, you never performed,

11:03 Speaker 2: but you've always been looking to get on the stage.

11:05 Speaker 2: You're always looking at perform. Let us know, we're actually

11:08 Speaker 2: about to start the tour. The day counted us out

11:11 Speaker 2: tour to start in September twenty seventh, out Row at Smokehouse.

11:15 Speaker 2: So make sure y'all tap in. You got a lot

11:17 Speaker 2: of opportunity for a lot of artists podcasts, you're trying

11:21 Speaker 2: to work. Let's work. Anybody's trying to work.

11:22 Speaker 1: Let's just work and the tour. How many dates are

11:25 Speaker 1: on the tour?

11:28 Speaker 2: I believe ten for the first way.

11:31 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so we'll.

11:32 Speaker 2: Basically book We're booked from September up until this no November,

11:39 Speaker 2: late November, then we take it December. You know, we're

11:41 Speaker 2: going to start the second leg of the tour in

11:44 Speaker 2: late January.

11:45 Speaker 1: Oh outstanding, Yeah, very cool, very cool? Is that that

11:50 Speaker 1: must be challenging to manage, right a showcase where you've

11:52 Speaker 1: got where you've got that many artists on it. I mean,

11:55 Speaker 1: is it difficult to kind of keep everybody organized and

11:57 Speaker 1: make sure they get enough time and all that. Is

12:00 Speaker 1: that a challenge to pull that off?

12:02 Speaker 2: Definitely? Definitely, because people are showing up on black people

12:05 Speaker 2: turn people are showing up link it by we we

12:09 Speaker 2: some people only got the venue from eight to so like,

12:11 Speaker 2: so many time we'd be having a venue till like

12:13 Speaker 2: one o'clock and people like showing up at time. You

12:15 Speaker 2: got to scrunch up seven minutes to ten minutes you

12:18 Speaker 2: have you know what I'm saying that I host the show.

12:20 Speaker 2: So it was just like you gotta over the time.

12:23 Speaker 2: We get used to it, but when you know your

12:25 Speaker 2: first couple of times, you're gonna be like geeesh, yeah,

12:28 Speaker 2: come on time a little barely.

12:32 Speaker 1: No, I can I can relate to that because so

12:34 Speaker 1: I don't do it currently. But I used to promote

12:36 Speaker 1: a lot of shows and sometimes we would have you know,

12:39 Speaker 1: we would have full bands, but we would have five

12:42 Speaker 1: four or five bands in a night on a show

12:46 Speaker 1: and uh yeah, if somebody, if somebody was late or

12:48 Speaker 1: if somebody, you know, they got to the venue. You

12:51 Speaker 1: know what happened a lot with bands is you know,

12:53 Speaker 1: part of the band would be there on time, but

12:55 Speaker 1: not everybody could be there on time. Maybe somebody was

12:58 Speaker 1: getting out of work late or whatever. You know, which happens,

13:00 Speaker 1: and you just have to make the best of it.

13:02 Speaker 1: But it can be really stressful. So I can only

13:05 Speaker 1: imagine what it's like when you've got a showcase of

13:07 Speaker 1: that many different artists and trying to do you do

13:11 Speaker 1: you have like a list, like do you try to do?

13:15 Speaker 1: You try to map it out ahead of time Who's

13:17 Speaker 1: gonna go on when? Or does it kind of go

13:19 Speaker 1: by who shows up when? And then you just kind

13:21 Speaker 1: of slot them in in the moment.

13:24 Speaker 2: Neither Actually I go by off the vibe of the crowd.

13:27 Speaker 1: Oh okay.

13:28 Speaker 2: You know some artists have you know, upbeat music, some

13:31 Speaker 2: artists have R and B music. You don't want to

13:34 Speaker 2: put on the artists or like drove music and then

13:36 Speaker 2: put on the artist that singing right after, you know

13:38 Speaker 2: what I mean. So it's like you just got to

13:40 Speaker 2: me personally, I just go with the vibe of the crowd.

13:42 Speaker 2: I go with the vibe of the art the vibe

13:44 Speaker 2: of the artists and who what type of music they

13:46 Speaker 2: make or whatever, because I know when it comes to

13:48 Speaker 2: my playlist, like when I'm like listening to music, if

13:51 Speaker 2: I'm listening to rap, I like slowly transition into R

13:55 Speaker 2: and B. Me if I'm listening to R and B,

13:56 Speaker 2: I'm slowly transitioned into rap. So that's how I try

13:59 Speaker 2: to keep it the lineups as well.

14:01 Speaker 1: Oh that makes sense, that's interesting. I like that approach.

14:04 Speaker 1: That's uh, that's that's really cool. Now at these showcases,

14:09 Speaker 1: have you seen are there specific artists who have participated

14:12 Speaker 1: in these showcases who've then you've seen go on to

14:15 Speaker 1: uh to be really successful either locally or regionally, or

14:19 Speaker 1: or any any success stories that we should know about.

14:24 Speaker 2: Yeah, honestly there is as every artist that I would

14:27 Speaker 2: say have been on my lineups, been on my lineups consistently,

14:30 Speaker 2: that you would say been on my lineups more than

14:34 Speaker 2: like Hope, he've been on my line up probably more

14:35 Speaker 2: than twenty times. I haven't been over I think almost

14:39 Speaker 2: three hundred showcases now, I'm not like to eighty seven,

14:43 Speaker 2: I believe, So it's just like over the over the

14:46 Speaker 2: three years, so he been on a lot of them.

14:48 Speaker 2: So I think any any person that I consistently put

14:50 Speaker 2: on my lineup I know for sure is gonna take off.

14:55 Speaker 2: And I know for sure they mean business and they

14:57 Speaker 2: actually mean what they that they you know, they work ethic, right,

15:02 Speaker 2: they work crafts, so they mean you know, some people't

15:05 Speaker 2: Smorrros don't understand that you got to put money behind

15:07 Speaker 2: you yourself. You feel what I'm saying to Mars don't

15:09 Speaker 2: understand so Tomorrows think that you just can get everything

15:12 Speaker 2: handed to them or whatever the case may be, just

15:13 Speaker 2: because they know they're nice. No, don't go like that.

15:16 Speaker 2: It's it's like it's like a once in the blue

15:18 Speaker 2: moon that goes like that. You feel what I'm saying,

15:19 Speaker 2: so right, That's basically why I'm at with many artist

15:23 Speaker 2: I put on my lineup persistently that shows me that

15:25 Speaker 2: they're here's about their work ethic and network in their craft.

15:28 Speaker 2: Then I know they're gonna make it.

15:29 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, oh excellent, excellent. All right, So tell us again,

15:35 Speaker 1: Well actually two things. Let me ask you this first,

15:37 Speaker 1: because I want to make sure our listeners know exactly

15:39 Speaker 1: where to find the podcast. And yeah, so just remind

15:44 Speaker 1: everybody is it is it. YouTube the best place to
