Join us as we explore the provocative concept of FYM tracing its journey from a Twitter rant to a potential class and eventually a radio show. We share the empowering idea that having FYM enables individuals to pursue their passions free from financial constraints or societal pressures. Discover how financial freedom can inspire bold choices and protect artists from bad contracts, while we also address the challenges of maintaining a lifestyle that aligns with rising incomes and the courage required to embark on new ventures. Next, we transport you to the vibrant Atlanta music scene of the early 2010s. Amidst unexpected career turns and a bizarre saga with Delta Airlines, we recount our immersion in Atlanta's burgeoning indie and experimental sounds. Reflect on the emergence of artists like EarthGang, Trinidad James, and Makonnen, and the impact of events like A3C, which celebrated diverse musical talents. Through personal anecdotes, we capture the spirit of experimentation and innovation that defined Atlanta's music culture during this transformative era. Our journey continues with nostalgic reflections on Atlanta's past, from the legendary Freaknik events of the mid-90s to humorous driving adventures and early work experiences. We reminisce about growing up in Atlanta, navigating culture shocks, and witnessing the city's rapid evolution. With tales of car thefts, family dynamics, and creative entrepreneurship advice, we offer a heartfelt and humorous glimpse into life on Atlanta's south side, celebrating the city's unique cultural tapestry and the lessons learned along the way.
