Chicken In Jeans Daniel Sadiq

It's been a crazy year to say the least but we are STILL here. This episode is my short retrospective on 2020.

An indie maker like you puts up a picture of a painting he made on Social Media, he got bazillion of traction, he got on TV shows, he sold over 10,000 pieces of his work in a day.

They call that the BIG BREAK.

But there is no BIG BREAK. On this bonus episode, I talked about how we as creatives need to be conscious of how we run with stories like this and how it affects our work.

About a decade ago, the words used to be “Go to School, Ace it, Get a good job and Live life.” then it evolved to “School is not enough, pursue your passion and live your best life.” But passion is not enough! Ideas are not enough! I also talked about how tech garage stories are motivating creatives.

My first time in JFK, I had lost my way. So I was happy when I saw a black dude. I walked up to him and said, “baba, howfa?” The next thing I heard was, “watchu saiying dawg!” It was at this point that I knew that black is different from black. This podcast dissects some of my concerns between the African and black culture. I also talked about representation and stereotypes.

Just record! If I was asked to describe this recording in two words, that would be my answer. On this episode of the Chicken In Jeans Podcast, I talked about procrastination vs doing and how I intend to grow with this podcast.
