RECESS serves as a multicultural financial playground for disadvantaged student-athletes, to educate them on the power of financial literacy. The aim of RECESS is to generate awareness and engagement through content creation and partnering events.

    Normalize Struggling ft Dale Thompson

    Welcome to EP6 of JustUs with Dale Thompson. Rapper/songwriter Dale Thompson’s love for music was present at an early age but truly sparked during his senior year while attending Brockton High School. Rapping through crowded hallways in-between classes and freestyling for friends at weekend kickbacks was just the beginning. After graduation he released his first mixtape, Everything and More. The tape received much attention locally for his wordplay and versatility and solidified Dale as a major potential in the state. Dale later expanded his network to Atlanta to learn the business and surround himself with like minded talent. In late 2021, he released his most recent project, Dreamland, which has currently accumulated over 300,000 streams across services. With a new year upon us, he plans to take his talents even further and show the world just how much he can do inside a booth.

    Welcome to the first episode of JustUs featuring Jeff Stately! Who is Jeff Stately? That question has spawned many answers over the years. As a stand-out artist, he's dabbled from solely hip hop music to creating house, alternative rock, and other genres. He is multifaceted. A content creator, Dj, producer, filmmaker, and all-around artist. He’s been making music since the age of 13-14. His energy is infectious. His pain is carried on each track. One word to describe him: eccentric.
