Never Too Young to Go For Extraordinary | Logan "Logistx" Edra Oct 14, 2020

Show notes

On this weeks episode we have the vegan b-girl extraordinaire, Logan "Logistx" Edra. She has appeared on Ellen, So You Think You Can Dance, Lip Sync Battle, LSB Shortie's, at Justin Bieber's Purpose Tour, and Dance Off Juniors just to name a few.

She full on reps her crews Underground Flow and The Lab from NBC's World of Dance.

**Warning** In our effort to improve the quality of the show overall we've been trying to up the game and introduce video just in case our listeners wanted to connect the visual aspect to our auditory experience. We have had hiccups along the way and although small we are trying our best to learn as we go. With that said sit back, relax, and enjoy!**

On the PodKast we discuss the Daddy/Daughter dynamic between her and her father, Herren, dance inspirations, words of wisdom, and shares her love for podcasts. Did we mention she was 15?

Breaking an Industry | James "Prohgress" Roh Oct 14, 2020

Show notes

Today in the pod, we have a pioneer in the game. James “Prohgress” Roh @prohfm of @fareastmovement has been putting it down in the music industry for years. From grinding it hard in their early years to getting signed to Interscope Records.

Taking the leap to starting their own label and management company @transparentfeed, Proh talks about everything from the highest of successes to the tough lessons of life in the industry as well as building and maintaining a business with some of his closest friends.

His transparency and wisdom from just being a seasoned vet is simply enlightening and absolutely golden.
