- Music Interviews
Finn McKenty interviews people who are making a living doing something they love: from musicians to filmmakers, designers, visual artists, engineers, athletes, business owners, writers - anybody who has turned their passion into their career.
The goal is always to pull out and of the big ideas that will help you quit your day job-- or if you're already doing what you love, help you level up your game, grow your business and make your life even more awesome.
If you are a creator or entrepreneur of any kind (or would like to be either of those things), then this show is for you!

Shinigami
Shinigami is hard to label - “alternative rapper” is probably the easiest term to use, but whatever label you want to use, he’s quickly become one of my favorite newer artists. He’s built a following of over 1 million Spotify listeners in just a few years with nothing more than a super simple home studio and his creativity, and I find his approach incredibly inspiring as an example of how every creator should think and act. He joins the podcast to talk about his DIY path to success, still feeling self-doubt, how he approaches his music and social media content, and so much more.
