"What is important is seldom urgent and what is urgent is seldom important."

- Dwight D. Eisenhower

Urgent means tasks that require your immediate attention now.

Important means tasks that contribute to your overall vision, goals, dreams, and ambitions.

Rapper A.K.K. and I have had an blast recording this episode! You want to tune in to hear these golden nuggets he drops as he and I talk. Here's some information in his background:

Born in Lake Charles, Louisiana but raised in Houston, Texas, Ashford K. Kamau; formally known by his performing name ”A.K.K” is an upcoming artist with aspirations of changing the social dynamics of the music industry. By blending the soulful African sounds of his lineage as well as the uplifting tones influenced by modern Jazz, Gospel and Hip-Hop ”A.K.K” offers listeners an experience that engages to not only hear but feel the connection during the 2-3 minutes of his music. With his impactful lyricism, catchy choruses and production ability, ”A.K.K” brings back meaning to not only the word rapper but as well as musician. His biggest influences for both lyrical and production versatility include Kayne West, Eminem, J. Cole, Dr. Dre, and Kendrick Lamar; but has been compared favorably to Drake due to the similarities in singing ability, metaphorical word-play, and personality.
