    Going Viral Isn’t Enough: Bratz Country, Branding & Building Your Own Lane

    This week on The Green Room, I’m sitting down with the queen of Bratz Country herself, Tyra Madison.Tyra and I get into what it really looks like to build a career as an independent artist in Nashville, from figuring out your brand and finding your sound to building a team, touring, and trying to survive the constantly changing world of social media. We talk about the pressure to create content every single day, why her casual karaoke videos have racked up millions of views, and the struggle of turning viral attention into fans who actually care about your original music.We also get personal about growing up confident and creative, being judged before people actually know you, navigating female friendships and competition, dating as an artist, and learning that turning 30 definitely does not mean your life is over.Tyra opens up about the success of “Right Girl, Wrong Time,” staying independent after early label meetings, the financial realities behind pursuing music full time, and her new song “Break My Heart.” Plus, we get into fashion, beauty, hair disasters, Nashville nightlife, and plenty of girl talk along the way.This one feels like hanging out with two friends who happen to be figuring out the music industry at the same time. If you’re an artist trying to build something of your own, or you’re just trying to stay confident while figuring out what comes next, there’s a lot in this conversation for you.Follow Me On Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/iamjademillion/ Podcast IG: https://www.instagram.com/thegreenroomwithjademillion/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jademillion Podcast TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thegreenroomwjademillion Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/itsjademillion Spotify Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/2gTaexd5a25IlWfqAg7PsW?si=fad02fb7e5c5445e&nd=1&dlsi=37194162ca594fac Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-green-room-with-jade-million/id1636767247

    The Point of No Return: Choosing a Life in Music feat. Pertinence

    This week on The Green Room, I’m sitting down with Pertinence for a conversation that immediately goes off the rails in the best way possible. We get into his first impressions of Nashville, how he went from making music as a teenager to building a career as an independent artist, and what it actually takes to keep going when there’s no guaranteed path to success. We talk about the changing world of social media, why millions of views don’t necessarily translate into real fans anymore, and how building an actual community around your music might be more important than ever. Pertinence also breaks down his experience touring, opening for bigger artists, reinvesting everything back into his career, and why playing for 30 people with everything you’ve got can matter just as much as playing for thousands. We talk about defining success beyond numbers, betting on yourself, staying authentic as your career grows, and the sacrifices that come with choosing a life in music. Somewhere along the way we also talk about Nashville bugs, dating, astrology, questionable song titles, and approximately a hundred other things that probably shouldn’t have made it onto a podcast. This one is chaotic, hilarious, and surprisingly deep — basically exactly what The Green Room is supposed to be.

    New Jobs, Bad Decisions & FaceApp Blindness

    Lauren is back, and apparently she’s lived an entire lifetime since the last time we sat down together. This episode is basically one giant best-friend catch-up. We talk about Lauren leaving the Nashville bartending world behind and going back to teaching, why the career change feels like the final piece of a much bigger personal transformation, her new car, her Cabo trip, accidentally hitting someone’s car, and why we’re officially ready to graduate from chasing the next “fun” bar in Nashville to taking trips where somebody else plans everything for us. We also get into the absolute minefield that is being a woman on the internet. We’re talking FaceApp blindness, AI-edited Instagram photos, how insane beauty standards have become, and looking back at pictures of ourselves from ten years ago and realizing that neither of us would actually want to be 21 again. As much as people romanticize their early 20s, I genuinely feel happier, more confident, and more myself at 30 than I ever did back then. And because this is Lauren and me, things obviously go off the rails. We get into dating, money and happiness, keeping things exciting in long-term relationships, our very specific opinions on taking sexy photos, the realities of having a personal life online, and Lauren’s upcoming Italy trip. It’s chaotic, inappropriate, nostalgic, and somehow therapeutic. Basically, exactly what happens when Lauren and I sit down with microphones and decide to “just catch up.” Follow Me On Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/iamjademillion/ Podcast IG: https://www.instagram.com/thegreenroomwithjademillion/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jademillion Podcast TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thegreenroomwjademillion Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/itsjademillion Spotify Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/2gTaexd5a25IlWfqAg7PsW?si=fad02fb7e5c5445e&nd=1&dlsi=37194162ca594fac Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-green-room-with-jade-million/id1636767247

    Perfectionism, ADHD & Finding Your Identity with Spencer Sutherland

    This week on The Green Room, I’m sitting down with Spencer Sutherland, and this one honestly felt like hanging out with an old friend. We popped a bottle to celebrate the release of his new single, “Somebody’s Going to Love Me,” and got into the long, sometimes messy road that brought him to the artist he is today. Spencer opens up about his X Factor days, coming back to the U.S. and essentially starting over, and the moment TikTok completely changed the trajectory of his career. We talk about what happened when he finally stopped chasing trends, started dressing and creating the way he actually wanted to, and realized that being different wasn’t something he needed to tone down. We also get into perfectionism, discipline, the pressure of constantly creating content, sacrificing real life for your career, and why sometimes working harder isn’t actually the answer. Somewhere along the way, we also end up having a very real conversation about ADHD, creativity, medication, time blindness, and that feeling of having a million things to do but struggling to finish any of them. And because it’s The Green Room, we obviously get sidetracked into everything from Trisha Paytas and musical Mount Rushmores to School of Rock, dating as an artist, ASAP Rocky, and why neither of us was built to fit neatly into a box. This episode is funny, chaotic, vulnerable, and ultimately a conversation about learning to trust the person and artist you already are instead of trying to become the version everyone else thinks will work.

    Going Viral, Staying Authentic & Building a Brand with Gage Briney

    What does it really take to build a massive audience by simply being yourself? This week in The Green Room, I’m joined by one of the internet’s funniest creators, Gage Briney. From bartending at Applebee’s in Arkansas to becoming a viral sensation, working with brands like Applebee’s, meeting Jennifer Lopez, being featured on the Today Show, and inspiring millions with his unapologetic personality, Gage shares the wild journey behind his success. We talk about why authenticity always wins, how consistency matters more than perfection, what it’s really like making a living as a full-time content creator, and why chasing trends will never outperform simply leaning into who you already are. Gage also opens up about the financial realities of influencing, handling social media pressure, manifesting the career you want, and the importance of creating content that genuinely makes people smile. Of course, we also dive into plenty of hilarious stories—from blackout margarita nights and frozen mango Sauvignon Blanc to Broadway adventures, chain restaurant nostalgia, Nashville life, dating disasters, and his iconic “Tina Turner” philosophy. If you’ve ever dreamed of building a platform online, needed a reminder to stop overthinking, or just want to laugh for an hour, this conversation is packed with inspiration, chaos, and some of the best one-liners I’ve heard on the podcast.

    The Mindset Independent Artists Need feat. Big Soph

    This episode of The Green Room completely shifted the way I think about being an independent artist. I sat down with music industry strategist and educator Big Soph to unpack what it really takes to build a career in today’s music industry. We talk about everything from personal branding, content strategy, and storytelling to funding your music independently, attracting brand partnerships, and why artists need to stop thinking of themselves as just musicians and start thinking like creators and entrepreneurs. But this conversation goes so much deeper than marketing. We dive into the mindset traps that keep artists stuck, the fear of being “too much” online, the pressure to constantly work harder, and why so many of us struggle to believe we’re already enough. I open up about where I’m currently at in my own career, the burnout I’ve been feeling, and the scary changes I know I need to make. Big South shares some of the most powerful advice I’ve ever heard about trusting yourself, protecting your energy, embracing abundance, and building a career that actually aligns with who you are. If you’ve been questioning your path, feeling overwhelmed by social media, wondering how to make a living as an independent artist, or simply need a reminder that you’re capable of creating the life you want, this episode is for you. This isn’t just a conversation about the music industry. It’s a conversation about belief, purpose, and becoming the artist—and the person—you were meant to be.

    Barstool Nashville’s Resident DJ spills the tea- NESH

    This week, I’m catching up with one of Nashville’s most recognizable DJs, Nesh, and trust me, this conversation goes way beyond nightlife. We talk about what it’s really like behind the DJ booth at Barstool Nashville, building a residency from the ground up, and why reading a crowd is just as important as reading people in everyday life. Nash shares how throwing his own events opened doors that waiting for opportunities never could, the lessons he’s learned from nearly nine years of sobriety, and why hospitality—not just good service—is the secret to creating unforgettable experiences. We also get into the realities of dating while working in nightlife, the misconceptions people have about DJs, the evolution of Nashville’s music scene, launching the Azure rooftop party series, fashion, tattoos, festivals, and why success isn’t about playing the biggest stage—it’s about genuinely loving what you do. If you’ve ever wondered what happens behind the scenes of the city’s biggest parties, or you’re chasing a creative career of your own, this episode is packed with honest conversations, laughs, and a reminder that building relationships will always take you further than chasing status.

    Why Consistency Beats Virality with Christian French

    In this episode, I sit down with the incredibly talented Christian French for one of the most honest conversations I’ve had about what it really takes to build a lasting career in music. We dive into everything from his journey growing up in Indiana to touring the world, signing with a major label, walking away from it, and rediscovering his love for making music as an independent artist. Christian opens up about the realities behind nearly a million monthly listeners, why streaming success isn’t as simple as people think, and how consistency has mattered far more than chasing viral moments. We also talk about the pressure every artist feels today—from social media burnout and content creation to the constant battle of wondering if you’re doing enough. Together, we unpack the mental side of being an artist, navigating setbacks, learning to let go of perfection, and finding joy in the creative process again. Christian shares incredible stories from touring with Chelsea Cutler and Quinn XCII, performing Lollapalooza after attending it for years as a fan, moving from Los Angeles to Nashville, and why producing his own music completely changed his perspective as an artist. We even get into songwriting, production, touring, the reality of selling tickets independently, and why your 30s might actually be the best time to build the career you’ve always wanted. This conversation reminded me that there are no shortcuts in this industry. The artists who stick around are the ones who keep showing up, keep learning, and keep creating even when nobody’s watching. If you’re an artist, songwriter, creative, or someone who’s ever questioned whether to keep chasing your dream, I think this episode will give you exactly the encouragement you need.
