    Swayvo Twain Talks Losing His Parents, Angie Stone & D'Angelo, Making a Name for Himself +More

    In this emotional and powerful conversation, Swayvo speaks on losing both of his parents — R&B legend Angie Stone and Grammy-winning icon D’Angelo — and what it means to carry that legacy while building a name for himself. Growing up as the son of two musical pioneers comes with pressure, expectation, and comparison. But grief changes everything. Swayvo reflects on the lessons he learned from his parents, the weight of their influence, and the responsibility he feels to honor their impact while carving out his own identity as an artist. He also addresses: The emotional toll of loss Therapy and mental health after tragedy His father’s complicated relationship with the music industry Why he refuses to live under anyone’s shadow What integrity in music really means today And how he plans to build something timeless in his own lane This isn’t just about legacy — it’s about identity. It’s about becoming your own man when the world already knows your last name.

    One Percent Better Podcast 049 | Behind Enemy Lines

    In this episode of One Percent Better, the conversation moves beyond surface-level takes and into something deeper — what it really means to navigate systems that weren’t designed with you in mind. What starts as a discussion about holidays, religion, and questioning accepted traditions quickly evolves into a broader reflection on power, perception, and survival. The crew examines how stories change as they travel, how institutions shape what we believe, and how interpretation often becomes “truth” once the public runs with it. From fear-based Christianity and cultural narratives to hip-hop media machines, relationship privacy, step-parent tensions, and the importance of believing children, this episode explores what it feels like to operate inside structures that don’t always protect you.

    One Percent Better 048 | Social Experiment: What America Taught Us About Survival

    In this episode of One Percent Better, the conversation starts in one place — podcast metrics, music discourse, culture takes — but slowly unfolds into something much deeper. What begins as a debate about surface numbers and social media perception evolves into a powerful reflection on America, survival, distrust in institutions, and what it means to grow inside systems that were never built with you in mind. The crew dives into: Why podcast “views” don’t tell the full storyHow social media reshapes how we consume music and cultureThe tension between safety and growth in Black communitiesSurvival parenting vs healthy parentingTulsa, distrust, and generational memoryReparations, power, and moral responsibilityWhether America functions like a social experiment — and what that means for Black people navigating itAt the heart of the episode is one central idea: Sometimes what keeps you safe also keeps you small. Social Experiment isn’t about blame — it’s about awareness. It’s about understanding how systems shape behavior, how fear influences decisions, and how survival logic can both protect and limit growth. This episode challenges listeners to ask: Are we reacting to noise… or responding to structure? One Percent Better is about growth through reflection — and sometimes that reflection forces you to examine the environment itself.

    One Percent Better (Bonus) | Clout Isn’t Currency

    In this bonus episode of One Percent Better, comedian Daphnique joins the conversation for a wide-ranging, unfiltered discussion about visibility, value, and what actually sustains a career in today’s attention-driven world. What starts with humor and viral culture quickly evolves into a deeper breakdown of clout versus competence, fake transparency, and why being seen doesn’t always mean being valuable.

The group also dives into: Why clout doesn’t guarantee longevity How people perform success without building substance The double standard women face in comedy and public expression Why “potential” isn’t enough without execution The difference between resources being available and people being ready How skill, usefulness, and standards separate those who last from those who fade Throughout the episode, one truth keeps surfacing: attention may open doors, but value keeps them open. This bonus conversation blends humor, honesty, and real-world insight — reminding listeners that relevance isn’t built through performance alone, but through consistency, skill, and substance. One Percent Better is about growth beyond hype — and this episode is a reminder that clout fades, but value compounds.n this bonus episode of One Percent Better, comedian Daphnique joins the conversation for a wide-ranging, unfiltered discussion about visibility, value, and what actually sustains a career in today’s attention-driven world.

    One Percent Better 045 | Separate but Equal: How Power Created the Gender Divide

    In this episode of One Percent Better, the conversation digs into one of the most uncomfortable realities shaping modern relationships and society: the gender divide isn’t accidental — it was built through power, hierarchy, and control. What begins as a discussion about communication and misunderstanding between men and women quickly expands into a deeper examination of how systems — religion, culture, capitalism, and tradition — have reinforced separation while labeling it “balance” or “order.” The group unpacks how power has historically determined: who leads and who followswho provides and who sacrificeswho is protected and who is blamedand who is expected to carry emotional, physical, and moral responsibilityRather than framing men vs. women as enemies, the episode challenges the structures that benefit from division — exposing how hierarchy thrives when accountability is uneven and empathy is conditional. Throughout the conversation, they explore: How religion and tradition are often used to justify gender rolesWhy “separate but equal” thinking still shapes expectations todayThe difference between partnership and powerHow responsibility has been unevenly assigned across gendersWhy division feels normal when it’s inheritedAnd what happens when people start questioning the systems they were taught not toThis episode isn’t about choosing sides. It’s about understanding how we got here — and why healing the divide requires more honesty than comfort.

    One Percent Better 043 | Special Delivery: Parenthood, Pressure & the Moments That Change Everything

    n this episode of One Percent Better, the conversation starts where real life often hits hardest: raising a toddler and realizing just how unprepared you feel — even when you’re doing your best. What begins as a discussion about tantrums, patience, and emotional regulation slowly unfolds into something much deeper. The crew reflects on how parenting reshapes your perspective — from letting go of public judgment, to understanding that kids need presence more than perfection. From there, the episode takes a powerful turn into the delivery room — unpacking the fear, pressure, and trauma that can come with childbirth. Jay shares what it’s like witnessing emergency procedures unfold in real time, while Jamila brings essential perspective as a doula, explaining how language, preparation, and advocacy can completely change a birth experience. Together, they explore: Why toddler meltdowns are about communication, not defianceHow parents learn emotional regulation alongside their childrenLetting go of public judgment and parenting with confidenceThe realities of labor, emergency C-sections, and postpartum riskWhy “natural vs unnatural” birth language causes harmThe role doulas play as advocates, not accessoriesBlack maternal health, medical neglect, and systemic gapsHow presence before, during, and after birth shapes everything“Kids don’t need perfection — they need presence.”“Every birth story matters.”“Life doesn’t just arrive… it’s delivered.”Special Delivery is about the moments that change you — the ones that don’t come with instructions, but demand responsibility, humility, and growth. This episode is a reminder that becoming one percent better isn’t about having all the answers — it’s about showing up when it matters most.

    One Percent Better 042 | Blurred Lines: When Consent, Power & Pressure Collide

    In this episode of One Percent Better, the conversation tackles one of the most uncomfortable truths in our culture: harm doesn’t always come from force — sometimes it comes from pressure, silence, and what people allow to slide. Using trending topics as a starting point, the group unpacks how consent, alcohol, power, and social dynamics collide in real life. What begins as a discussion about public controversies quickly expands into a deeper examination of rape culture, coercion, and the ways “just having fun” can turn into something much darker when boundaries aren’t clear and nobody speaks up. The episode explores: How pressure can exist without anyone explicitly saying “do this”Why alcohol complicates consent and accountabilityThe difference between force and coercion — and why that line mattersHow environments normalize harmful behavior without intentWhy friends checking friends is a form of protection, not betrayalHow silence often becomes participationThe role of power, influence, and social validation in crossing linesWhy values matter most when they’re inconvenientAs the conversation widens, the group also reflects on disappointment in public figures and how alignment, optics, and silence signal values — whether intentionally or not. “Pressure doesn’t always look aggressive.”“Silence isn’t neutral.”“If nobody checks it, it becomes culture.”This episode doesn’t offer easy answers. Instead, it asks listeners to sit with the discomfort of recognizing how often harm hides in plain sight — and what responsibility looks like when no one wants to be the one to say something. One Percent Better isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being aware — and choosing to do better when it counts.
