In Episode 29 of Creative Evolution, host Josi J sits down with Kenneth Brown. He started on drums at four years old and picked up piano at six, and has spent a lifetime moving between jazz, blues, rock, R&B, and hip hop. He has performed with David "Fathead" Newman, Curtis Fuller, Steve Nelson, Warren Wolf, and Greg Tardy, lived and played in Colorado for about five years, and produces hip hop tracks on the side. After his debut album 3 Down, he wrote and recorded Love People during the pandemic, an album built on the idea of being a "love person" that started with a T-shirt.

In Episode 27 of Creative Evolution, host Josi J sits down with her longtime friend P Cha$e, an independent artist, producer, and entrepreneur who helped launch her music career in Knoxville. They talk his path from East Knoxville and West African drumming into the city's rap scene, the merch business he built from the ground up, the hard lessons of losing something he helped build, and what it means to stay authentic as an artist. They close it out in the Hot Seat.

In Episode 27 of Creative Evolution, host Josi J sits down with her longtime friend P Cha$e. He grew up on Knoxville's East Side, where soccer was one of the few outlets available to him growing up. He found his way into music through West African drumming as a teenager, and by his mid-teens he was writing, producing, and selling his own CDs out of his trunk, years before that hustle became a mainstream story. He came up in the early-to-mid two thousands Knoxville rap scene, producing for CJ Entertainment and running in the same circles as Starlito before he made it big. He formed the group Gangsters On Board and wrote the group's debut album himself, then went on to produce the community mixtape What You Don't Know Won't Hurt You, recorded entirely on his mother's computer. He is the founder of the streetwear brand It's Straight, and the friend who first brought Josi J into a recording studio, introducing her to the very musicians who would go on to become Josi J and Dessert.

In Episode 26 of Creative Evolution, host Josi J sits down with Greg Krutial Carney. He started in ninth grade as part of an anti-drug rap group called the Homeboys, turning his poetry into music to spread a message in schools. He has never had a drink. Never smoked. He went on to become a top one hundred finalist at Beyonce's world tour audition in Chicago, danced in an MC Hammer Pepsi commercial, founded Crucial Cardio, and has taught hip hop dance to generations of kids and adults across Knoxville Tennessee. He is also the choreographer behind the Josi J and Dessert music video for Gimme That Beat.
