In the heartwarming short documentary, Makayla's Voice: A Letter to the World, we are introduced to a remarkable young girl whose spirit and determination defy all expectations. Makayla, a black teenage girl, has spent her life grappling with a rare form of autism that rendered her essentially nonverbal. However, her parents (father, Grammy-award winning producer Needlz and business owner mother, Mañana), filled with unwavering belief in their daughter's potential, embarked on a transformative journey to discover the true depth of Makayla's inner world. Recently, through the help of Roxy Sewell, Makayla's letterboard therapist, a groundbreaking breakthrough came into their lives in the form of letter board therapy, a method that finally provided Makayla with the means to communicate. As her voice gradually emerges, the audience is invited into a world of wonder, poetry, and brilliance that was once hidden from sight. Through the lens of the documentary, we witness Makayla's courageous steps as she unveils her thoughts, feelings, and insights. With her newfound ability to express herself, she shines as an inspiring advocate for autism, determined to show the world the power and beauty of neurodiversity.  Makayla's Voice: A Letter to the World is directed, written and produced by Julio Palacio, who has won several awards for his short form documentaries. The film is also produced by Sam Hanson and Sasha Levinson, editor is Jeff Jay and cinematography is by Brock Hanson.

Khari “Needlz” Cain is on the show with us today. Needlz is an incredible record producer who is originally Michigan, but his journey has taken him all over the place. He ended up getting a masters degree in music business from NYU and planned on going into A&R in the record industry, but after an internship with Bad Boy Records he ended up pursuing production. Calling back to his days DJ'ing while at Florida State for his undergraduate degree which is where he got his nickname. He is a multiple grammy winner, multi-platinum producer who has worked with Cardi B, Bruno Mars, Drake, 50cent, and more, but he is also one of the most chill, humble, and talented people I've ever met… Khari “Needlz” Cain - Multi-platinum/Multi-grammy winning producer Social Media - @prodbyneedlz MyFi Podcast Website - www.myfipodcast.com Social Media - @myfipodcast / @leetbaker MyFi Stinger Music by Lee T.

This week on the pod the boys had the pleasure of sitting down with a true jack of all trades: DJ Sammy Needlz (@djsammyneedlz) for a producer paradise battle between J Dilla vs Pete Rock. After the close matchup the boys talk relocating to LA, adventures on the road with Duck Sauce ( @atrak and @armandvanhelden ), Goldie Awards, sticky situations in Brazil, and a RARE Top 3 New York pizza list! Sammy has truly done it all and this glimpse into a portion of his history in music will absolutely attest to how integral he is in the DJ community. Glad we could give flowers to a real one!

On this Episode of "This, That and The Third", Ammbaataa talks with the Homie and his first podcast guest ever in life, Seattle's own Jake One. Since the 1998 Conception Records “Walkman Rotation” Jake One has been on a slow and steady trajectory. A full fledge member of the G-Unit era sorority of producers: Hi-Tek, Needlz, Illmind, Focus, Buckwild, Red Spyda, DJ Khalil, Mr. Porter and last but definitely not least Nottz. Multiple Grammy nods, classic cuts like the De La Soul MF Doom assisted “Rock Co. Kane Flow”, to the Dynamic Duo comprised of himself and Mayer Hawthorne (Tuxedo), to his single from J. Cole's latest full length release The Off Season "My Life" (with 21 Savage and Morray). I was introduced to Jake One's music via the Bay Area music Don Dada Ian Davis (Little Brother/Heiroglyphics). Ian Davis would give me Jake One beat CD’s that eventually became my families Sunday morning traveling music. I wanted to talk specifically about J.Coles “My Life”, but a run down of some of Snare Jordan’s greatest hits became the mission. Tune in. TTT3 J. Cole 2013 • 06. "3 Wishes" J.

Read our afterthoughts for this episode at https://twitter.com/PodSematary/status/1376693080741580800 CW: Suicide, Rape, Animal Harm, Ableism It’s Easter Week on Pod Sematary! Chris & Kelsey watch two horror movies set during Easter to get into the holiday spirit and they're both... pretty bad. The Classic Film: Bless the Child (2000) "Cody, a little girl abandoned by her mother and raised by her aunt, a nurse, is kidnapped. The girl's guardian, aided by an F.B.I. agent, learns that Cody has supernatural abilities, and the abductees are a Satanic cult willing to do anything to gain them” (IMDb.com). Bless the Child WISHES it could be End of Days, and that's saying something. The Modern Film: Rottentail (2018) "Peter Cotton, a scientist that works on rabbits and infertility, learns that the military wishes to use his work to create superhuman soldiers. Cotton is bitten by an experimental mutant rabbit and changes into the evil Rottentail” (IMDb.com). Rottentail is dumb and gross and the filmmakers know that, but that's not why it's bad. It can be fun in the way that Troma movies are fun, but it just isn't as good as some of the heavy hitters in that style.

On this episode of The Brutally Delicious Podcast we speak with Davey Suicide about the bands upcoming tour, the bands writing process, and we put him through a hysterical round of The Furious 5. Hailing from Hollywood aka Unholywood Killafornia, Davey Suicide is fusing arena rock, gutter grit, sleaze, and theatrics into their own “nu” brand of industrial rock. The band, which features Davey Suicide along with Niko Gemini, Derek Obscura, & Needlz distills rock, industrial and punk into anthems that are as corrosive as they are catchy. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/brutally-delicious/message

This week BrandenLSK holds it down solo and talks with Dutch-Curaçaose R&B singer Nicole Bus. Many of you may have discovered her via her NPR Tiny Desk performance back in August, but she has been putting in the work for quite some time. In this conversation, Bus talks about growing up in Holland how the last 365 days, in particular, have changed her career and life.   1:25 Bus reveals that she and her team wrote and produced her entire debut album in Atlanta. She and Branden explore the idea that European listeners take Black music more seriously than American listeners.   7:15 Being half-Dutch and half-Curaçaose, Bus talks about how the two cultures have influenced her musical style. She later gets into how she started her musical journey after getting her first instrument as a child and actually making music in high school.  12:19 Bus explains the idea being her breakout single “You” and why she and producer Needlz decided to make a song uplifting Black men. She also reveals that she did not know that rappers like Ghostface and Rick Ross were hopping on remixes to her singles.  18:00 “You” came out in 2018 but didn’t break until this past summer. Bus admits that she hated the slow-burning process of breaking the song, but appreciates how it humbled her.  24:00 Bus talks about the challenges of being a producer and songwriter herself but having to respect the creative process of working with other producers and songwriters.  28:00 Bus lays out what to expect from her upcoming debut album. She also shares that she has an unreleased Issac Hayes arrangement featured on the album. She also tests Branden’s ear and Hip-Hop knowledge by challenging him to a trivia question about one of the samples on her record. 33:00 Bus talks about the inspiration behind the distinct artwork for her singles. 37:00 Bus shares her thoughts on the state of R&B music.  Day 1 Radio podcast is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Play, IHeartRadio, Spotify, Stitcher, Radio Public, and CLNS Mobile Media app. Follow us on Twitter, FB, and IG at @day1radio
