And So

Listen to "And So" on Spreaker. In radio we call them crutches. That go to place in a talking break that sounds more like a time killer then a physical connection with listeners. Radio isn't the only game playing the same. As creative minds and builders there's something you do in your everyday that puts movement through your journey forward. Look at the way we treat people when we believe the conversation is over. We use vocal tones as a crutch. It signals the passerby that we're pretty much done. Grocery store checkout clerks say the same thing over and over again to their customers. It's a crutch! Instead of engaging in brand new conversation they rely on whatever it takes to make the line shorter. I usually choose to break the ice first by asking them questions about the outside world. Then I rely on my own crutches to pull a smile from their company cover. Which is the reason why I love sharing conversations with the nations top comedians. They've mastered the art of connection by way of listening then growing into a small collection of thoughts which leads to the passerby to be eased into something new. Doctors and Dentists are totally addicted to crutches. Mechanics and car salespeople are horrible with crutches. Are you aware of what's making you stale? Me asking questions all the time. A total crutch!

Selina Gomez

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update Selena Gomez On Why She Needs A Band" on Spreaker. Selena Gomez couldn't have said it better, "There's a huge difference in being a TV star and a musician. Music is much more competitive." Which is why she surrounded herself with a band. It became her support system inside an ever changing sound. Her latest releases on rBeatz Radio has her teamed up with Master Mixer and Festival DJ KYGO It Aint Me.

Redd

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update Redd On Combining Rap And EDM" on Spreaker. EDM isn't staying within it's own playing field. The rhythm and the language it speaks is showing up in others genres from Country to Top 40, New Rock to Hip Hop. We all know what EDM producers like to do. They throw everything into the mix. How does that affect and infect Hip Hop song lyricist Redd from Detroit? One of his latest releases from his new album True Color is called Beer and Papers.

Steve O

Listen to "Steve O On Tour" on Spreaker. There are Hollywood stunt artists and there's Steve O. Even at the age of 42 he shows me a video of him jumping out of a pickup off a trampoline...leaping over a metal fence on a bridge then falling over 50 feet into a river. Absolutely I want to talk to this man!

Redd

Listen to "Redd True Colors" on Spreaker. The story of Redd. Through his lyrics you learn so much of what it's like to grow into adult shoes on the streets of Detroit's rebirth. To hear his passion to build upon the beats has opened the door for his new project to invite an entire team of collaborators. True Colors lifts Redd's game to new chapter of how staying true to your art has an incredible payoff.

The Lyrics From Billy's Forest Chapter 62

Listen to "The Lyrics From Billys Forest Chapter 62" on Spreaker. What is your requirement? To wake up in the morning. Brush your teeth. Head to work then return home to spend what little money you made? We all carry forward a personal requirement. Not necessarily a purpose but a requirement. You challenge yourself daily to reach a place of security and or acceptability. You see struggles headed your direction and instantly you require yourself to prepare for the passing season. I ask a lot of questions. Not to be a know it all. I only want to better understand the requirement. And in asking those questions I wonder how I might be serving better. But you have to watch out for moments like this. To make yourself available means you have to meet the requirement. This opens a huge can of worms. Do business leaders truly mean their door is always open? Are you available to help heal beyond just being in the mood for it? It's an incredible feeling to say you are going to help usher in change. But a darker storm grows forward when those you shared it with fell witness to a lack of fruit being produced. What is your requirement?

Starley

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update Starley The True Art Of Music" on Spreaker. With so many talent shows broadcast worldwide we're forgetting about the true struggles of the singer/songwriters that have spent years crafting their sights and sounds. There's something to be said about going through the struggle. Starley was forced to move back in with her parents and making that ultimate decision of writing and performing her own music. Her latest release on rBeatz Radio is Call On Me.
