He then elaborates on the fact that because he was alone a lot it gave him the ability to think on a deeper level about the things he saw, and be able to embrace his creative side at a early age to the point he knew that he wanted to be in entertain at a young age. Our conversation gets interesting when our Co-host T-Reg asks Tun and CP who are their top five favorite and/or most influential comedians.

Aka Chocolate Papí aka TunGotJokes Twitter/IG/TikTok: @Tungotjokes Special Guest: @CASEYVEGGIES On this episode, we sit down with a true West-Coast Legend and native of Los Angeles, Rapper, Song-Writer and Artist Casey Veggies. Our conversation first starts off with us talking to Casey about how he came up in Los Angeles, being the youngest of his siblings and growing up predominantly in Inglewood. He goes on to share with us that when he was 7 years old he was outside and got hit by a car and had to leave school and be homeschooled. Casey also reveals a random fact that maybe some people knew but was new to Tunde, which was that his father used to be a body guard for Jay-Z when he was younger. We later go on to discuss how him and our Co-Host T.Reg became instant friends as kids through sports and lost touch for a little bit, but eventually linked back up in high school at the Legendary Crenshaw High School. Casey then goes into detail about how things were for him in high school, seeing that he was getting heavy buzz and notoriety for his music at a very young age. He talks about how he was influenced a lot by certain Midwest artists like Lupe Fiasco, and how the East Coast music vibes helped him cultivate his own sound that he develop on the West Coast. By 17 yrs old, because of his constant grind and being outside and on the Fairfax scene, he had develop a solid name in the city, which later had him being able to connect with the big homies from LA doing their own thing like Nipsey Hussle and Dom Kennedy early in their careers. Casey explains that he was really living a crazy life at such a young age because not only was he performing at major clubs in Los Angeles and had his music doing crazy numbers on the internet before streaming was a thing, but he eventually got the attention of Jay-Z and Roc Nation and was flown to New York to meet Jay-z in person. That meeting later turned into him getting signed to a management deal with Roc Nation. As the episode goes on, we continue to talk about his journey as an artist in the music industry and the ups and downs that come from being signed to a major label like Epic Records, which was the label he signed his first record deal with. Casey goes on to express that due to all the politics and lack of knowledge of the music business that at a point, certain things started to get a bit shakey which kind of lead to him going through a bit of depression. Casey keeps it real about how he was able to come back from being in a dark place personally and artistically. But with him continuing to stay creative and motivated by the art of making music got him back to the point where he's creating phenomenal music and now going back on tour with his long time friend and big homie Dom Kennedy. Like usual, our listeners are definitely in for a treat like always, this is one you do not want to miss! So sit back and enjoy the crazy world of The Tune'd In Podcast. Yay! Yay!

Our conversation first starts off talking about how Chef Jones grew up in New Orleans, and where his passion for cooking initial came from. Chef explains that outside of this natural interest in cooking because of being from the south, he went to college for business management. But it was one day that he saw a man walking around campus with the checker pants that culinary students and people who cook at restaurants wear and it really intrigued him. Chef Jones later goes on to reveal to us that he was not only inspired by the guy in the checker pants but he also had a older brother who cooked and another brother who was in the streets, who always looked out for him and push him to do positive things with his life. We then transition to a new topic, when our Co-Host T-Reg asks him about how he was effected by "Hurricane Katrina". Chef tells us that the hurricane was the best and worst thing that could've happened to him because he had to evacuate his home and leave everything behind, but also got a sign from God to move to Atlanta, and that's when his life changed drastically. And while being in Atlanta, he was working at a very popular restaurant where a lot of celebrities used to come to eat. After building connections and relationships in Atlanta, unfortunately his mother got sick and evidently passed away, but he then moved back to New Orleans and capitalize on his skills and connections which eventually got him cooking for the likes of star athletes like Reggie Bush, and now being Anthony Davis's personal chef.

    Welcome to Dussé and Backwoods, The Real Negus Roundtable. I'm your host TUNDEEEEEE!! Aka Chocolate Papí aka TunGotJokes Twitter/IG/TikTok: @Tungotjokes Special Guests: @TT_Got_it & @PrinceCharmingP On this episode Tun sits down with the Emmy Award winning dynamic rap duo and legendary products of the west side of Chicago, The Freaky Boiz. We first start off our conversation talking about what it was like for these two growing up on the westside of Chicago. Even though they went to revel schools where violence and gang activity was constantly around them, they found a way to build a bond and become close friends at an early age in life. Due to their upbringing being so rough, they stuck together through their love for entertainment, as they both were apart of a local dance group in Chicago. Although faced with several trials and tribulations because of the harsh environment and extreme circumstances they had to over come, the both of them ended up going to college and attending Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, Illinois. At SIUC, is where their lives changed forever because they were one of the first internet sensations to go viral due to their famous impromptu freestyle that they did in their dorms and uploaded to YouTube which made them overnight local and national celebrities. Not only did their freestyle catch a lot of notoriety, but they set the path and opened the door as the first male rap duo who were openly representing the LGBTQIA community. Because of their new and unique rapping styles and raunchy lyrics about their lives and experiences as openly gay black males, they developed a celebrity status which eventually got them to appear of the nationally syndicated radio show, "The Breakfast Club". We later go on to discuss on them catching fame early as young college students, that allowed them to gain a large following which later contributed to them moving out to Los Angeles to further advance themselves in their rap careers. We discuss how them coming out to Los Angeles, right after college allowed them to experience a multitude of adult life trials and tribulations which gave them the understanding of what their true calling and purpose was in life outside of just being entertainers. And that calling and purpose eventually leading one of them to become and Emmy Award Winner as well as a Guinness Book Record holder and the other to develop a love and passion of being a school teacher as well as an entrepreneur. Like usual, our listeners are definitely in for a treat like always, this is one you do not want to miss! So sit back and enjoy the crazy world of Dussé and Backwoods. Yay! Yay!

The conversation starts off a little spicy with our co-host T.Reg calling Chelcye out as a hater of the city, due to her funny side comments about Los Angeles men. But Chelcye later clears up her overgeneralized comments by elaborating on how with her being a "Southern Belle" at heart, its some things that she is just accustomed to due to her upbringing in the south. We go on to discuss what it was like growing up for her seeing as she is an only child, and she goes on telling us about how she had a great childhood, but also realized earlier in her life that she aspired to be a entertainer of some sort. Chelcye reveals that although she is a tall women at 5'9, she never had a interest in playing sports even though she ran track for her high school, but yet her passion ended up being public speaking because she was on the debate team. The experience gave her the confidence to be out spoken in front of a group of strangers as well as be able to stand alone in a male dominated field. We later transitioned our conversation to how she later went to college but found herself not being focused, and ended up dropping out and joining the navy. Our conversation continues as we discuss her trials and tribulations that she goes through which she ends finding herself in California, pursing entertainment as an Actress. Chelcye was having success in her acting career but it wasn't as fulfilling as she hoped it to be because she was constantly having to wait for opportunities to be seen as an Actress. But it wasn't until she saw a fellow Comedian and now a peer in stand up comedy by the name of Ron G perform stand up comedy, which sparked a fire and passion for comedy which eventually got her to pursuing comedy as a full time career.
