Welcome to “When Words Fail, Music Speaks,” the podcast that turns melodies into medicine for the soul.In today's episode host James Cox sits down with Jastin Artis—a gold‑and‑platinum‑streamed indie producer, songwriter, A&R mentor, and relentless “chronic‑health warrior.” From the origins of his unusual middle name—Jastin, a blend of his parents' names, and Artist, a tribute to a grandfather he never met—to his journey from a class‑room clarinet player to a guitar‑driven “hip‑hop Renaissance” creator, Justin shares the stories that have shaped his sound.We'll dive deep into his creative process, exploring how a simple keyboard chord evolves into the layered instrumentals of Love in Darkness and the genre‑bending anthem “Tag This.” Jastin reveals the challenges of living with fibromyalgia, insomnia and low testosterone, and how music, meditation, video games, and even Netflix binge‑watching become his lifelines when depression looms.The conversation also touches on:The power of naming and identity in an artis' career.The mastermind collaborations he'd love to see—Pharrell, Jimi Hendrix, and a female legend like Queen Latifah or Alanis Morissette.The songs that move him to the brink of tears—Lauryn Hill's MTV Unplugged performance and John Mayer's “Gravity.”A glimpse of his future merch empire (stickers, throw‑pillows, beach towels) and his relentless drive to turn streams into tangible support for creators.If you've ever felt the weight of chronic illness, the sting of creative doubt, or simply crave a soundtrack for resilience, this episode is your reminder that when words stumble, music never does. Grab your headphones, press play, and let Jastin's story inspire the next stanza of your own journey.As always.....when words fail...music speaks!

It is a privilege to welcome alt-pop recording artist and producer ROHAN to The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast. ROHAN was an Australian kid with big dreams. Indian parents raised him in Australia and Singapore. He was introduced to music through Australian Idol and Green Day's American Idiot, which led him to explore computers and front bands in Melbourne and Singapore. After high school, he moved to California and attended Stanford to continue exploring his love for technology and music. Now, out of his own studio in San Francisco and pulling inspiration from Australian recording artists such as Skeggs, 90s R&B and hip-hop such as Ms. Lauryn Hill, and contemporary pop artists like Dominic Fike, he's ready to officially introduce himself with his own blend of Australian indie rock with R&B, electronic, and folk musical influences that form his self-produced confessional alt-pop anthems. Earlier in 2025, ROHAN opened for Chappell Roan's favorite pop artist, Devon Again, at her sold-out show in San Francisco. He also opened for Contradash, Frex, and Marco Luka. In October, he will be supporting Will Paquin when he visits the city. On this episode of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, ROHAN spoke about performing alongside Green Day, overcoming challenges while staying in the music industry, and shared the stories behind some of his most-streamed Spotify songs.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/jake-s-take-with-jacob-elyachar--4112003/support.

Send us a textThis week on Third Eye Roll, Dr. Justine Lemos and Scarlett Trillia dive into a potent eclipse season packed with major transits: Venus struts into Leo, Mars slips into Libra, and the Sun and Mercury shift into Virgo—right in time for a partial solar eclipse in Uttara Phalguni.We unpack what all this means for love, breakups, contracts, and karmic audits. From tangled wigs and drag queen Venus vibes to Mars demanding couples counseling (or speed dating), the astro-weather has us questioning what's ending, what's sustainable, and what vows we're really bound to.Along the way, we honor the passing of Robert Redford, explore Virgo's filing-cabinet fashion sense, spin music picks from Eurythmics to Lauryn Hill, and share the Vedic myth of Ariaman, guardian of oaths—reminding us how broken contracts blind both heart and society.Expect astro insight, mythic storytelling, pop culture flair, and a lot of laughter as we navigate endings, beginnings, and the cosmic contracts that hold us together.Support the show
För en del är framgång mer skrämmande än misslyckande. Framgång begränsar friheten, och kan bli det som dödar. Mamman, aktivisten och sångerskan sa nej till alla orimliga krav och förväntningar, och återvände hem. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Lauryn Hill flög till Detroit med sin nyfödde son och sin mamma 1997. Dagarna i studion med Aretha Franklin resulterade inte bara i drottningens bästa utspel på femton år (”A rose is still a rose”). Aretha delade också med sig av erfarenheter, som historien om hur Jerry Wexler på sin tid fick äran för produktionen trots att Franklin var högst delaktig i processen. Något som Lauryn Hill kände igen från dagarna i Fugees. Även om Wyclef och Pras såg Lauryn som sin jämlike, så betraktade många henne enbart som sångerska och MC, inte som låtskrivare och producent. När Lauryn skulle lämna Detroit gjorde hon på väg till flygplatsen ett besök på Motownmuseet. Det blåvita huset vid West Grand Boulevard där drömmarna för några av hennes idoler förverkligades. Vid sidan om Arethasamarbetet verkade det bidra till kraften och självförtroendet som krävdes för att skapa musik med samma tidlösa kvaliteter som Stevie och Marvin (”The miseducation of Lauryn Hill”). Det här är ett av flera nedslag i en berättelse som bygger på Mats Nileskärs två möten med Lauryn Hill. Han har även intervjuat Wyclef, Pras, John Forte och D'Angelo.
One of the biggest songs of the 90s has a surprising origin with some very surprising originators. But we all know where this episode ends up. Torn, originally by Ednaswap, covered by Natalie Imbruglia. Outro music is Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You (I Love You Baby) by Lauryn Hill, who was in the same grammy race we discuss in the show. It was a heck of a year, no doubt.
So this started as a boom bap kinda mix but then I blended some other stuff in and the parameters got widened. The BPM's float from 85-95 and the vibe goes from Lauryn Hill to classics reinterpreted, blended with demos of songs that became hits and songs that we've yet to get released. Its not turn up, but its not lay down either. Enjoy

Why the Golden Era? What makes it so special? Along with the fashion that has been part of Hip Hop culture from the start was the message, much like reggae shifted from love songs during the Rocksteady era to Roots Reggae in the 70s, where people were trying to unite and bring something more conscious and durable to the recordings. HipHop would repeat this shift 20 years later, from the early 80s with Run DMC, LL Cool J, Doug E. Fresh, and Kurtis Blow to Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Digable Planets, & Public Enemy amongst others - they formed a coalition of unity, consciousness, and empowerment. The Golden Era wasn't just about hits; it was a cultural movement. It set the blueprint for what hip-hop could be: raw yet refined, rebellious but thoughtful. Whether you grew up with these tracks or are just discovering them, this mix is a celebration of the sound and soul of one of music's most influential periods.

On this episode of The Rickey Smiley Morning Show Podcast, the studio dives into four headline-grabbing stories. “American Idol” winner Jamal Roberts turned down a key to the city in Laurel, Mississippi, citing death threats linked to resentment in the town—he ultimately wants to focus on his music, not the spotlight. Shifting to cultural trends, the crew noticed during the “What’s Trending” segment that Black family reunions are increasingly fading from tradition, a conversation prompted by the declining attendance and discussions around their deep-rooted significance. Finally, the show addresses Lauryn Hill’s famously late Essence Fest set—delayed until 2:30 a.m. and ending to a near-empty stadium. Organizers have since defended her, stating that the delay stemmed from event scheduling issues, not the artist herself.

His 2015 album The Epic won the American Music Prize and stands, in our opinion, as one of the greatest jazz records of the 21st century. Kamasi contributed to Kendrick Lamar's Grammy-winning To Pimp a Butterfly, scored Michelle Obama's Netflix documentary Becoming, and has collaborated with musical legends like Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Lauryn Hill, Nas, Snoop Dogg, Chaka Khan, and many more. In this episode, we spent an evening with Kamasi, exploring his creative process, what he's learned from his collaborators, his philosophy on collaboration, and his latest album, Fearless Movement. Zero Gravity, Wayne Shorter documentary on Amazon Prime Kamasi's newest record, Fearless Movement The Epic Kamasi Washington's website Kamasi Washington, born in Los Angeles in 1981, grew up surrounded by music, with a saxophonist father and a flutist mother who nurtured his musical talent from a young age. Kamasi's journey began with drums and piano in his early years, progressing to the clarinet at age seven and finally to the tenor saxophone at twelve, mirroring his father's path. His high school years at Hamilton High School Music Academy were pivotal; there, he joined the renowned Multi School Jazz Band and learned from jazz icons like Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter. Kamasi's talent was quickly recognized when he won the John Coltrane Saxophone Competition, and he co-founded "The Young Jazz Giants," which marked his early step into professional music. Kamasi's musical evolution continued at UCLA, where he studied ethnomusicology and expanded his understanding of global music traditions. This foundation supported his wide-ranging collaborations beyond jazz, where he worked with artists like Snoop Dogg, Raphael Saadiq, and Kendrick Lamar. Yet, despite his diverse influences, Kamasi remained firmly rooted in jazz, ultimately channeling these experiences into his innovative sound. His 2015 debut album, The Epic, was a monumental release—a three-disc exploration of jazz that introduced a unique blend of spiritual depth and musical complexity. The album garnered critical acclaim, broadening Kamasi's reach and establishing him as a leader in modern jazz. *** This ad-supported episode is available to everyone.
