    Dance Floors To Hollywood Doors W/ Woody McClain | The Underground Lounge S4 E.3

    Actor, producer, and fan-favorite star Woody McClain joins The Underground Lounge for an unforgettable conversation about the journey from viral internet sensation to one of Hollywood's most recognizable faces. Woody reflects on the early days of creating comedy skits online, touring as a dancer, and betting on himself before landing the role of Bobby Brown in The New Edition Story and The Bobby Brown Story. He also shares how stepping into the role of Kane on Power Book II: Ghost helped him break free from being typecast and introduced audiences to a completely different side of his talent. The conversation dives deep into fatherhood, raising twins, navigating Hollywood as an introvert, and the lessons he's learned from years of auditioning, rejection, and perseverance. Woody opens up about producing his own projects, developing a romantic comedy, and why understanding the business side of entertainment is just as important as performing in front of the camera. Along the way, the crew shares hilarious stories about dance crews, club nights, social media fame, waiting around on movie sets, and the evolution of content creators becoming legitimate Hollywood stars. From Kevin Hart's impact on his career to the importance of relationships in the industry, Woody delivers gems for anyone chasing a dream.

    This week in the Lounge, the guys tap in with music executive and LVRN co-founder Justice Baiden for a conversation that goes way beyond the music industry.

Justice talks about taking bold risks, including booking last-minute international flights just to chase an opportunity, and why putting yourself in position is the only way the universe can meet you halfway.

    In this episode, Domani pulls up to the Underground Lounge and proves real quick why he’s carved his own lane. From growing up around fame to intentionally stepping away from it, he breaks down why he chose to bet on himself instead of taking the easy route, and how that decision shaped his sound, his work ethic, and his identity as an artist. He opens up about discovering music at a young age, finding his creative voice through consistency, and why writing still matters to him. The conversation gets deeper as he talks about fatherhood, independence in the music industry, and the pressure of building something real without shortcuts. He also shares his unique studio process, why he creates best in solitude and how real-life moments, fuel his music. Things take an interesting turn when he speaks on responding to 50 Cent, revealing that the record wasn’t planned, it just came from a real moment.
