Hot & Delicious: Rocks The Planet

Why blend in when you’re born to stand out? . 5 years ago I had the pleasure of kickin’ it with L-FRESH The LION on my couch in West Melbourne, chewing the fat on Punjab, meditation, music and all the simple things in life. 5 years and 221 episodes later, it brings a broad smile to my face that L was my 9th everHot & Delicious: Rocks The Planet! podcast guest, that he’s part of my journey and I his. . And man L-FRESH has been BUSY!!! From festival appearances all over Australia, L-FRESH The LION addressed the United Nations Headquarters in New York in late 2018 and shared a stage in London with the youngest-ever Nobel Prize laureate, Pakistani human rights and female education activist Malala Yousafzai. . He was also selected as an ambassador for YouTube’s Creators For Change global initiative, with his resulting video RACI$T / OUR WORLD premiering at the Tribeca TV festival in New York and accumulating close to half a million views. . Step inside our world as we chat about the beauty of Goa (India), where he shot the music video for his latest single, 'Born To Stand Out’, how he stays refreshed and hungry at a time where he’s never been busier, our shared love for NBA, ‘Culture Strong’ x 500K+ views and so much more. . Breaking ground and exceeding expectations is a recurring theme of this South West Sydney artist, having performed alongside hip hop icons such as Nas, Talib Kweli, Chali 2NA and Dead Prez, and even the legendary Sir Elton John, it’s wonderfully refreshing that L-FRESH The LION remains so humble, thoughtful and community-focused. I doff my hat to you, sir. .

This episode was recorded 2 weeks ago just after the death of George Floyd, as the news was taking shape and just prior to the BLM protests taking off around the world, so for me it felt right to hold off publishing it until now and provides insight as to why we didn’t dive into it as subject matter on this episode. Love to all and stay safe, no matter where you are right now.
