This episode is long overdue but I've been super busy since I got back to NY for the 2018 New Year. I touched base a little bit in the intro of this episode on why the delay. On today's season finale episode, we have the founder and CEO of UpNext "Ayinde Arnett" telling us tips and tricks on how to raise money and how to get into multiple startup accelerators.

While being in Silicon Valley at the Startup Embassy, I had the pleasure to have Malcolm Howard and Salman Hijazi on today's episode to speak about the importance of learning how to code. From my personal experience of losing both time and money, I strongly recommend you to learn how to code or at least know the basics of coding. This special episode will give you helpful tips and resources on how or where to begin learning how to code and why it is extremely important to know how to code.

In this season finale episode, I shared a personal secret about me that I've never shared publicly with anybody. Only my close immediate family knows about this deep secret of mine. I also speak about our newest app "Nezz" that we will release on the App Store this week, and I speak briefly about my upcoming visit to Silicon Valley. You'll also get to hear exclusive details about the upcoming episodes as we wrap up season 1, and as I promised on the previous episode, I've added a brand new theme song called "Had Enough."

Would love to hear your feedback on the new theme song!

In this episode, I decode and go into full details line by line, on what inspired me to write and record the DreadHead in Tech theme song "New Face." Each bar I wrote has a deep meaning behind them, from my experience being on Apple Music reality show "Planet of the Apps" to launching the SubwayTalent app, pivoting, and going at it with Will.I.Am from the Black Eyed Peas, and Damon Wayans Jr....I promise you will enjoy listening to this podcast. As always I keep everything, real, raw & organic.
