Toying With Greatness

Confessions Of A Toy Artist

Welcome weirdos! Did you know I have my own show? Of course you didn't. I mean, it's only been like nine months. It's ok, just your friendly neighborhood Jabbo doing what he does best.  I have been a bit silent on the art toy front for a bit, now it's tome to find out why. I finally buckled down and committed to the dream of creating my very own first collectable art piece. I never really knew what to focus on, but I knew I wanted to design something that would absolutely require me to work WELL outside of my comfort zone and force me to grow as a person and as an artist. Enter Rafē.  Come behind the scenes (so to speak), as I fill you in on what Rafē is, why I decided to make him, and all the fun/not fun things I had to accomplish to pull this off.  This may not be the episode that you'd normally get from me, but trust me, this one is pretty huge for me, so enjoy. Lol.

...And I Podcast As Well

Alot can happen in six months and now you get to hear about some of it. Oh. You thought Jabbology was dead? Nope. Not at all. Find out what's going on behind the scenes at Proper Rumpus and what new things there are to unroll. You know what, just give it a play, I promise you that you'll get all the wonderful pieces of Jabbo that you've been missing and then some. Finally, the head lunatic is back!

We've Been Everywhere, Man

Since I have a podcast network, I mean I guess I can actually put out my own show, right? With the gap closing, I guess that's improvement lol. Welcome to another episode of Jabbology. I had to do SOMETHING. There is always so much going on, that I have to take breaks and fill you all in. It's a great catch up episode with the promise of more. I believe I even say that in the episode. It's not a total story dump, but it's a good opener to all the new shit coming. Hope you enjoy it!

They Are Forecasting Snow

Jabbology is rolling with a few new future changes, but one thing that will stay constant is the adoration I have for the skills, talents, and personalities of the guests. It's not always that I get to sit with someone, but when I do, I geek out just the same. This is no different. As hip hop turns the big 5-0, it just so happened that I had a friend that I wanted to catch up with and he just so happens to be a disciple of the "birthday boy/girl". Big. Bruddah. Snow. A Louisi-Animal in his own right. A creative on a path that only he could curate and follow. A storyteller from "The Boot" with an unconventional view that he is more than happy to share. Controversial in his thoughts, you're seeing a poet on the rise. One with an unflinching and honest look at the course of life that has him where he is today. I couldn't introduce him any better. I could tell you about his home life, his kids, his 9 to 5. I could even tell you his journey into music. Or I can try to shut up and let the man tell you himself. New Jabbology. Enjoy!

Toying With Greatness

People have been askng when another Jabbology episode would be popping up, well, here is your answer. Long overdue in both content AND frequency, I finally got another episde out. This time, I get to sit and be insipired by Alex Parker, the creater/owner of To The House Collectibles. You have heard me delve with Nashon into the story of our resin art, so this is in the same circle. Representation matters. What you get here is a awesome story of the roots of what I feel is an amazing pitch into the designer art world. Trust me, its not one to miss. The Prospect is such an amazing platform and the story and passion behind Alex's dream is one that will inspire anyone. Also, you will get to hear me go fanboy a little. Lol Enjoy!
