D Caesar Nation

So we got a chance to talk to a great friend of ours, mentor, big brother, father figure, Randee Drew. Randee, just like us, went to a PWI and these days he’s working hard in the realm of education all while helping others reach their goals and provide resources that others like us didn’t have growing up. Just going to throw this out there… in between those two periods of his life he just so happened to get the opportunity to live out one of his dreams which was becoming a pro Defensive Back in the NFL with the San Francisco 49ers. He played football in Europe and Canda and eventually, he changed course into what he’s doing now. Tap in as we talk to Randee about the process along his journey.

Back at it again with a new voice and a familiar one as well. In this episode D Mott and I got a chance to sit down with our brother Vic, aka City Boy, who is a writer and a poet, amongst other things. Over the course of the past ehhh maybe year Vic has shared some of his work with us and in return he has gotten the push to share it with you all. Our other guest is Dari who has rebranded himself as King Gold, and recently dropped his new single "Pay Me Sum". Right away the song was a hit as the views on YouTube and the streams on Spotify, Apple Music and etc. were gained in an instant. We just took a bit of time to talk about our crafts, what it takes to create, and hold ourselves and each other accountable. Enjoy!

What happens when you put a group featuring entrepreneurship, skill development, coaching, and education, all who also happen to be camp counselors at the same summer camp in a room? You get great conversation and content of course! Twain G and I had the pleasure to step away from our camp counselor duties for a moment to talk to three great friends of ours: Coach Reggie Rembert, Coach Chris Robinson and Alex Mullet. We got into some discussions about what they do aside from working to build up the next generation of leaders. We also discussed some staples in our respective households growing up in black homes, and how that has shaped us. Whether it be movies, hobbies, sports, or playing spades—which Alex gave me a hard time about because I only learned how to play two years ago—we all have things that set us apart but bring us together at the same time. Enjoy as we share a balance of deep conversation and laughs!

We’ll keep this short and sweet… people have been wanting to hear D Mott a little more so we briefly interviewed him, we talked about things we would like to try that we haven’t yet, Twain is a chicken finger type of dude and at the end D Caesar and D Mott almost die from doing the Paqui One Chip challenge 🥵. You’ll get a kick out of that… no pun intended.

So, D Caesar came across a thread on Instagram that sparked a conversation. The thread showed some people talking about how quickly they may have quit a job, how they've handled push back and disrespect from employers, and etc. Show the guys talked about some ways they could relate and joked about some of their experiences. Some a little more serious but others turned into laughs but per usual overall great conversation. On top of all that, TWAIN G DROPS A BOMB ON THE CREW AND D MOTT HAS A MESSAGE FOR YOU ALL! TUNE IN!

We get a chance to talk to local up and coming artist, Dari. If you haven't tapped in with this young man, you are missing out on a treat. We chat about his origin story with getting into music and how he's progressed in the three years since. He's caught fire a little bit with his single, "Cold Motion" and more recently his EP Classic Dream. With not having too much time in between the two projects and them both having unquestionably different sounds, this seemed to really have piqued interest of listeners. We also shared some laughs in between Dari talking about his approach to cancel culture and his inspirations as D Caesar and Jake, our Creative Director trade jokes back and forth. Come find out about Dari as he and D Caesar Nation prepare for a HOT summer.

So we've been working on a few things in the background and behind the scenes as of late. Leading up to the summer we are looking to add dimensions to the show. We've got merchandise that is available on our website and we've added a Creative Director & Producer. Our friend Jake McCoy brings his skills with audio and visuals along with other ideas to add he sat down to discuss that with D Caesar. Here's a quick episode to fill everybody in on what to expect from the self-proclaimed, Last Angle Bender.

In this episode, D Mott and I some how go over a few topics surrounding "comebacks" as the conversation carries. First off, D Mott is back with some good news surrounding his work place, so we're going to keep our fingers crossed for him. With the country slowly starting to open back up, we talked about how we felt about potentially gaining access to things like going to sports arenas and even music festivals that have been pushed back to the fall season. We discussed being excited to see rapper Bobby Shmurda home and D Mott answered the question about whether he is looking forward to getting new music him. We also took time to give a shoutout to our partnership with new local custom printing service, RAW DESIGNS! Also did Drake steal our flow with his latest EP "Scary Hours 2"? Did D Mott give us a preview of one of his own tracks for the ladies? Press play to find out! 🚰💪🏾

Another solo session and this time I brought on a good friend of mine. My guy, Monty Long, works as a Service Facilitator in the mental health field while based in Madison, WI. We started off by talking about how he got into his career and what it means for him to be able to represent his community and culture in a field still surrounded by stigmas. We also discussed what may cause someone to find success or fame and not being able to leave their old ways behind and Monty made some great points on that along with what he thinks about cancel culture and whether society is "soft." There were a lot of great takes and thoughts provided in this episode and I know you all will enjoy it as much as I did.

So obviously 2020 ended as weird as we probably expected, and 2021 didn't start off too hot either. Politically a lot of us feel like we're are going in the right direction with the Biden-Harris administration. Between the three of us came up with one word to describe what we think is coming up next for Trump and came up with some good ones on the spot. We dive into some "New Years resolutions such as putting ideas into action, investing, and continuing to keep up with our health. We also touched on keeping up with the mental health as well and D Caesar briefly opens up on his struggles and rising above it. You know we brought the laughs along with us as well and we hope y'all enjoy this. Shout out Michelle Obama by the way 😍😂.
