Luckily I was able to get this last podcast before we started social distancing. When I figure out to do some high-quality Zoom/Discord podcasts I will be doing some that way until things get back to normal. Mixing it Up Episode 13, Premieres Saturday at 10am on all podcast platforms and on Youtube.

      James is a Twitch streamer and runs (one of the locations ) of Crashmasters Computer, Phone, and Tablet Repair.  James was actually the person who built my computer that does most of everything that EDP does in the studio. James and I met when he was booking shows, a handful of years back, and at the time we were acquaintances but we have since cultivated a business relationship and now a friendship. 

      James has recently opened a brick and mortar location doing Computer, phone, and tablet repair. If you know James you know he is a man that wears many hats and is intelligent and very passionate about his work and interests. 

      In this episode, we chatted about being a Twitch Streamer, running a business, personal growth, education, and volunteer work with a local pet shelter.  

    This was another longer podcast but it was great being able to build on our relationship and learn while having a good conversation and laughs.

E-WILL is a touring hip-hop artist.   E-Will's work ethic and consistency have shown major progress over the last 10 years. He just got off his first tour with a high profile video shoot with the backing of an independent label.   We discuss things like spamming DMS, getting out there as an artist and shaking hands and the approach you should take when it comes to releasing your music.  This is the first time I got to meet E-Will and we made a day out of doing a podcast and he spit some bars and we did an EDP bars video (out now). We had some great laughs and I had a really good time hanging with E-Will. Make sure you check him out on all streaming platforms.

Tony talks about WHY he does music, collaborating, some advice for his young artist, and most Importantly our new project ELEVATE that drops early 2020.
