LIKEITORNOT is back with another episode for you to iron your clothes to! We’ve got producer extraordinaire, DJ, Spark Studios owner and wordsmith Mr. Torbjorn in the building! My guy is a gem in our PNW music & arts community and he didn’t hold anything back in this one. From telling us of his early days growing up in music heavy family, instruments in hand, to creating bands with friends in his adolescent years up to attending prestigious music & audio recording schools in Europe. He breaks down the formula for his success and attributes it to nothing else other than hard work, patience and perseverance. So much to unpack in this episode from world tours to the British Basketball League. Come get to know the man behind the beats, LIKEITORNOT. Super huge shout out to y’all for finding this amazingly refreshing episode with a truly genuine dude. Appreciate you guys and like I always say, LIKEITORNOT is nothing with out you guys, the listeners.

It’s really him, the episode, LIKEITORNOT. 

Welcome back to another episode of the LIKEITORNOT podcast, this time we welcome in Christian Taylor to Post Office Studios, alongside my co-host 5 o’clock Rich, & we call this one the ‘It’s Really Him' episode. 

Christian first tells us why he changed his name from Baja Boy to his government name and also where he even got Baja Boy from. Hint, it’s exactly what you think. I then get into a sort of timeline sort of groove as me and my shrooms I took before the show start to kick in. We talk his earliest musical influences. The first instruments he played. We even discover he played with his Dad’s friends band when he was 10 or 11. We talk BATH TOYS, if you know, we’ll then.. you know. We transition into how he and Baloogz met and speaks on Splash’s influence on his success as well. We talk Buddy Ross and him being a factor in Christian’s move down to Portland and eventually Los Angeles. He also later speaks on Buddy’s influence on him as an artist as well. We break off into shroom talk which 5 o’clock leads like a stampede. Rich also breaks down the art of heckling, why we need to eat at PARKY’S PIZZA on the EASTSIDE & just more awesome shit I don’t wanna giveaway here in the ol’ write up. All in all it was an absolute pleasure talking with Christian and we hope you all can take a listen to his music if you haven’t already, LIKEITORNOT.

I haven’t met many famous music artists but I couldn’t imagine any of them to be as down to earth as Travis Thompson is. If you follow him on any social media platform, you know how much he engages with his fans. And if you’ve ever been to one of his shows, you know what I’m talking about. He stays after or will come out to the crowd and allow fans to take picture after picture and sign autographs as well, just like a pro ball player. LIKEITORNOT, it was a privilege and an honor to have a real conversation with him that saw absolutely no boundaries as we dove into everything from his childhood, to touring with Macklemore and what that meant, to throwing out the first pitch at a Mariners game. We talk about him working with legendary Seattle music producer and beat maker, Jake One. We speak on his love for Tacoma, what his first rap name was, his character Tino on Rez Dawgs and the Hulu experience in general, and much, much more in this hour long episode that opens up season 4 for y’all, LIKEITORNOT. I am joined by my old running mate Baloogz, who also asks some great questions, DJ QJ, who I end up having a few questions for & Durrdy Dan. Topo Chico & Natty Wine were the unofficial sponsors and of course S/O to backwoods and all the fire smoke we burned that evening.  Also, S/O young Jayce for gracing us with his presence and Billee Thorp of course for getting some amazing photos. Throw your 1’s up now as well for Q and Travis as they’ve embarked on their nationwide tour and are in Houston at the moment & a huge S/O to our listeners out there around the world, LIKEITORNOT.

Welcome back folks, LIKEITORNOT is here to give y’all a quick intro to season 4 with a quick summer recap brought to you by host A-HYB. Nestled away in cozy Post Office Studios in downtown Tacoma, WA, you can tell Hyp gets in a groove while recording at home base. We talk re-opening of the Pine Cone restaurant. We touch on the basics of the Fester Inc. Umi’s Corner collab that is now available on https://www.umiscorner.com/Are you team python or team cheetah when bowling rounds with your friends? We also speak on a new foodie crew in town known as BIG ZESTY. Really looking forward to watching them put in work. Hyb then talks a little about the Mary Mart 8 year anniversary and the double contributions of eTc Tacoma & Community Gardens NW to help make that day a special one. Also talked about: NBA players complaining about the ratings on 2K23. A recap of QJ & Friends 1 year at The Zodiac Supper Club. The fall opening of the Tacoma Sunday Market 10/2. I give love and insight into the last two episodes and why NYC snow days took a hit this last week when they announced if it did snow that kids would be expected to then attend class virtually. I call BULLSHIT on the NYC public education system. Let kids enjoy the snow, it’s the last little bit of joy a school kid has lmao. We play 'Party Lick Prince' from Travis Thompson’s new EP IF IM ALIVE, THAT IS. Hyp also freestyles to the Big Pimpin beat from the Above The Rim soundtrack, so you know it’s must hear content, LIKEITORNOT.

CHUUCH! LIKEITORNOT is back with another episode, this one recorded from The Tacoma Darkroom. Durrdy Dan co-hosts with me and we welcome C-Legz & Dracula Milk on the podcast, the duo that forms 202059 Bllang Thaang, a YouTube cartoon they’ve created together, from scratch. Nothing but an idea from D-Milk is what you’ll find out. They go back and talk about how they met and a bunch of crazy stories growing up in Pierce County together. C-Legz explains the process behind each episode. He also freestyles, as does Milk, over a Khris P/DJ QJ beat. Can’t miss action like always.  Unofficially Sponsored by Remy Martin & Lemon Pound Mintz, LIKEITORNOT.

LIKEITORNOT is back with another episode. This time I’ve got Kwabi, creator/owner of the Peace Bus, the soon to be Peace Plane & just a true humanitarian to the highest degree on the podcast w/ my co-hosts JP of ItsUrbanNature Candles & rapper/producer Seaan Brooks. Kwabi tells all in this hour long episode that’ll have you wanting to make sure you do your part to make the world a better place, LIKEITORNOT. He talks about what equal education should look like, what he plans to do once he obtains his own plane and why he decided to take the humanitarian path after he was initially the frontman in a reggae band he formed while at Western Washington University. I’ll let you listen to the rest but do yourself a favor and tune in and feel the energy of this powerful human being, LIKEITORNOT.

This episode features Tacoma legend @chriscrayzie253_  @seaan_brooks & @durddydan co-host and we just have a blast laughing our asses off most of the time and then getting serious when we talk about the Reign Man & his friendship.

As soon as Chris’ piece ends, young @darrionzane joins the podcast for the last 20 mins and freestyles for us and breaks down for us how he comes up with his content as well as his new releases.
