Special Message for Young Adults
Building up your name in a small town can be hard but sometimes you have to be in a small town to see the bigger picture of what your music is really about. FTF Star sits down with us and we understand from this interview that don’t ever doubt where you come from because it molded you into the individual you are today. On the move, FTF Star has had a lot of opportunities with big artist and they have collaborated on many different bodies of works such as his collaboration with music artist,Vino, called All I Need. FTF Star said “ I don’t feel my name is big enough yet. Even though I have worked with big artist.” So with that we want you to know that you should continue to build your brand no matter what occupation you choose. No matter who you work with it's up to you to make a name for yourself and find that purpose you was brought here for.

Episode: The Build Up
Being from Jamaica, Overlord has seen some things but that's just one portion of him. Using all that he learned back home he brought his flow to the states and began making a name for himself. Releasing his project entitled “Nightmare on Eight Killy” you will get a sense that its a different style of music not really from the states but adapted to fit the style that he loves and wants to bring to others.

In the first episode of EverydayPeople we talk to a retired veteran who wants to share his story of military experiences he has had and his life as it centered around the LGBT community guiding and mentoring them. Which ultimately helped him become stronger.
ShowNotes
Steven Davis, retired veteran, tells us how he grew up from a young to the age he is currently. He got in a lot of trouble which caused a lot of backlash and issues. But after he graduated high school he decided to enlist in the army to serve a bigger purpose than being all about himself. Within the army he was a human resource specialist who taught a human resource class to all his brigade who was in the human resource department.He speaks on how his military travels and experiences have changed him significantly as a person along with having to look after soldiers younger than him he really found most of them came from broken homes or homes with no sense of structure.
We all know that having no sense of structure at home can cause a young male to lash out on people or get into a lot of drugs / violence that they don’t really need to get into. Plus being apart of the LGBT community and all that on top can be even more dangerous. We see children, adults, and even young adults take their life because of people who don’t want to except which is a norm today. In some areas more than others but there are a many voices out there that will speak for them and sometimes it becomes too late for us to reach them. This isn’t in the interview posted but Steven Davis and myself were apart of this group called Generation X where we wanted to provide a safe space for LGBT members to communicate and sort out all their problems with help from like minds. I was the president and he was the vice president and we set out on a mission to empower LGBT youth and young adults to be themselves. We started back in 2015 and we had to put a halt on things due to the climate of Facebook changing and things that we had going on outside of our group that took over that priority. But we will continue this conversation with a follow up on Generation X on a future podcast episode.
