Hosted by Lucien Lewis (Crip Smasher) , Shakayla Rojas (Shay-K With The AK) , and Earl Jones (Sleepwalker). 3 friends come together to share ideas and perspectives on real life problems and occurrences, in a genuine manor.

On this episode, we have a very special guest, T-Bird of BRoc and The Biz. Well known for the hit song “My Baby Daddy”. After spending almost 2 decades trying to simply find a song that's played on the radio every year, I ended up having to actually track down the man behind it himself a few years ago. Thanks to the help of his producer “Fiya OnThe Track”. I was able to get in touch with him, what I didn't realize, was that he's an actual comedian that will brighten the mood of any room he steps foot in. Tune in to each segment as T-Bird speaks on his life and where things are now, along with non stop jokes. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/earl-jones/message

After setting up for a casual episode, Crip Smasher got a phone call from someone that said they may stop by to record with us. We said "Oh ok, that's cool" and didn't think too much of it. Until the caller showed up and we realized who we just invited onto the show! The legendary Baby Boy Da Prince! He stopped by to kick it with us for a while and took the time to explain a little about what it could be like dealing with shadiness in the industry, maneuvering through and or around the many pitfalls an up and coming artist may face, utilizing what we have, and most of all, the love for the city. It would be a great understatement to say that we truly appreciated this moment. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/earl-jones/message
