Jacoby Shaddix of Papa Roach (Rerun)

On this week's rerun episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Jacoby Shaddix of Papa Roach. More than 20 years since their inception, ⁠Papa Roach⁠ continue to thrive. Their 2000 album Infest seems to grow bigger every year as new people discover songs like “Last Resort” and “Blood Brothers.” They also remain on the road in support of their 2022 LP Ego Trip, including wrapping the second leg of their own Rockzilla tour and supporting Shinedown across the U.S. last year. “I’m not good when shit’s just calm, quiet, still — I need some chaos,” Shaddix ⁠told ⁠⁠Alternative Press⁠ in 2022. “I’ve got too much energy inside, and if I just sit stagnant, it drives me f*****g mad. I need that release — that’s why I go run all the time. That’s why I go to the gym, because I’m an energetic being. So performing is such a healthy experience for me. I get to explode, physically and emotionally.” ------- Listen to their Artist Friendly conversation on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ------- Follow Artist Friendly!

Richard Marx

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Richard Marx. Marx delivered his self-titled debut album in the spring of 1987 and has kept up the pace, adding over a dozen more to his catalog since. All the while, he frequently showed up on the pop charts, shared a Grammy for Song of the Year with Luther Vandross, and sang background vocals on Madonna’s “White Heat.” In 2021, he released a memoir called Stories to Tell, which unpacked his four-decade career, but it also serves as the title of his podcast. This week, the roles are reversed, sitting down with Madden to delve into his latest full-length, After Hours, and beyond. ------- Listen to their Artist Friendly conversation on ⁠⁠Spotify.⁠ ------- Follow Artist Friendly!

Bebe Rexha

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Bebe Rexha. Before she signed to Warner in 2013, Rexha was in a short-lived electropop band with Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz called Black Cards, which led to touring with Travie McCoy, multiple solo albums, and a summer on Warped Tour in 2015. Now she’s freshly independent, forming a partnership with indie label and distributor EMPIRE. In a conversation with Joel, they get into pushing yourself forward, turning pain into songwriting, and her new visual album, Dirty Blonde, out Friday (June 12). “I feel like I can always do better — this is the problem with me — but there are some records on there that I’m absolutely so proud of…” she says. “I don’t like being stuck in a box. I grew up on so many different sounds… If I wanna do a classical album next, I’m gonna do that.” ------- Listen to their Artist Friendly conversation on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ------- Follow Artist Friendly!

Lizzo

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Lizzo. Lizzo shows up fully in everything she does, and this Artist Friendly conversation is no different.

Additionally, they speak about her upcoming album, Bitch, a fall tour, and a children’s book about a flute who can’t find her voice — based on her life. ------- Listen to their Artist Friendly conversation on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ------- Follow Artist Friendly!

Linda Perry

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Linda Perry. Perry quickly made her mark as the primary songwriter, vocalist, and guitarist for 4 Non Blondes, where she penned the international hit “What’s Up?” (which Thursday covered earlier this year). That album, 1992’s Bigger, Better, Faster, More!, spent more than a year on the Billboard 200 following its release, going platinum and racking up millions of streams. Beyond that, Perry has become a major presence behind the scenes, producing Surfbort’s Keep On Truckin’ in 2021 and working with a slew of pop stars — including Gwen Stefani, Miley Cyrus, and Ariana Grande. Stopping by the Artist Friendly studio, she joins Madden for a wide-ranging conversation about legacy, creativity, and Let It Die Here — her first solo album in 25 years. ------- Listen to their Artist Friendly conversation on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ------- Follow Artist Friendly!

Lionel Richie

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Lionel Richie. Richie is a legend in his own right, making several classic love songs through the years. However, he revealed the profound overwhelm of stardom in a near-500-page memoir, Truly, last year, documenting his journey from a “painfully shy” child to a stadium-sized musician. Ahead of a busy summer, Madden sits down with the music icon, American Idol judge, and his father-in-law for an unfiltered look at what it means to build a legacy. From a standing ovation at the Oscars to the real weight of fame, family, and survival in the industry, this is a conversation 20 years in the making.------- Listen to their Artist Friendly conversation on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify.⁠⁠⁠⁠ ------- Follow Artist Friendly!

Before the release of his ninth full-length, Brightside, Marley stopped by the Artist Friendly studio for a grounded, soulful conversation with Madden. The two go deep on the making of his record, the song he wrote as a love letter to his father, and what it means to find your path without imitating someone else. “We all have a purpose here, so I’m just doing my part,” he tells Madden. “I’m not trying to be the brain if I’m the heart.” ------- Listen to their Artist Friendly conversation on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ------- Follow Artist Friendly!

Deryck Whibley of Sum 41

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Deryck Whibley of Sum 41. Sum 41 defined an entire generation of skate punk before they played their last show in January 2025. Their final LP, Heaven :x: Hell, was a feat, showing off their signature styles. The Heaven side called back to their snotty pop-punk days, whereas Hell channeled their metallic side that ramped up with 2004’s Chuck. In the time since, Whibley has released a potent memoir, Walking Disaster, and a clothing brand with the same name, debuting at Warped Tour Orlando last year. Stopping by the Artist Friendly studio, they get into a raw, reflective conversation where Deryck opens up about his near-death experience, burnout, and what’s next. ------- Listen to their Artist Friendly conversation on ⁠Spotify. ------- Follow Artist Friendly!

Jordan Pundik of New Found Glory will join Joel Madden on the latest episode of the series.New Found Glory became the soundtrack for teen angst during pop punk’s golden age in the early 2000s, blending their upbringings in Coral Springs, Florida DIY scenes with bouncy hooks. That angst, though, came from a very real place. “I wish I went back a long time ago to deal with [my anxiety],” Pundik tells Madden. “I haven’t been that vocal about it until recently because I would just hide it and push it down and pretend that everything was OK… That’s my biggest regret — not dealing with it sooner.” In a conversation with his longtime peer, the New Found Glory frontman elaborates on the positive effects of therapy, growing up on tour together, and Listen Up!, out this Friday (Feb. 20). ------- Listen to their Artist Friendly conversation on ⁠⁠Spotify.⁠ ------- Follow Artist Friendly!

Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes. Following 2024’s Happiness Bastards, the Black Crowes got straight to work. In early 2025, the Robinson brothers traveled to Nashville to reunite with producer Jay Joyce and build on the momentum of their last album. The resulting A Pound of Feathers captures a similar energy, full of swaggering rock that, as Robinson tells it, “hits harder, more jagged, but is still true to our musical essence.” Before heading out on an extensive tour, the frontman stopped by the Artist Friendly studio for a conversation about grief, rebuilding the Black Crowes, and making their newest record in under two weeks. ------- Listen to their Artist Friendly conversation on ⁠⁠⁠Spotify.⁠⁠ ------- Follow Artist Friendly!

Michael Bingham of Spiritual Cramp

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Michael Bingham of Spiritual Cramp. Last year brought us RUDE, the punk group’s second album, where self-deprecating humor, anxiety, and bruised love songs melded with their “hard mod” style. Their first U.S. headline tour, presented by AP, soon followed, where the band delivered ferocious cool night after night. Having wrapped the run in late March, the Spiritual Cramp frontman stopped by the Artist Friendly studio for an engaging conversation with Madden.
