Aweston Backwards

From Compton to SLC - CJ Arnell

CJ Arnell is known to many of us Utah locals as the guy who brought Kanye West to the gateway. Aside from his extended, premiere network, the man works around the clock to pursue his place as a musician and a mentor to the industries his brands are established in. I First got to meet CJ through colleagues of mine and we started talking through Instagram. It wasn't until a few months later did we actually get to meet in person. He has got to be one of the most influential artists in the community I work in due to his steadfast involvement with his community through social media and directly at his studio and through his other ventures. I'm grateful to have him both as a mentor and a friend.

Sitting Down with a Master, JD Allen

JD Allen has been a heavy name in our community and a name I've heard of since I first started making videos for our artists. He is the CEO and Executive Producer for Inglewood Films which is a staple of media not just for our local community but for the films community as a whole. With his productions like 'Fear Level' which is on Amazon Prime, as well as Saiya which is out soon, he has proven time and time again that his story-telling is the key to his vision.   I was so excited to sit down with JD finally. With his busy schedule, he was able to squeeze me in and it has been a true highlight of my journey.

Benjamin Major 2 Timin' - Full Interview

As a preface, one of my cameras was experiencing technical difficulties and so during part of the interview, you will notice Ben's mic going out. Luckily, my mic was able to pick him up just fine.  This is the full interview of our second interview with Ben Major. It was so great being able to sit with him again inside his home studio. Ben Major, has been a consistent mover in the Utah community, making frequent appearances on Slap Lake City as well as consistently bringing new tracks and videos to his followers. His music has always been the type of music I love to listen to. It sounds like a nice powder run first thing in the morning on a sunny winter day.  On this episode we discuss what it's been like being Ben Major during covid, as well as what headspace he's been in for him to perform at the level he has been. We hope you enjoy!

Sippin' Coffee with Sarah Baytop Scott

I first met Sarah because we were both working with the same client at the same time for two separate projects. Entrepreneurs out here know the name 'Sarah Baytop Scott'. She has ran successful ventures for various Fortune 500 companies as well as reached her network towards Silicon Valley. Having the opportunity to work with her, let alone sit with her has been a true highlight in my own entrepreneurial adventures.   In this video, we discuss a lot of what she is doing now with the Salt Lake City artists and how these types of ventures came to be.

Aweston Backwards

Auston Backwards is a musician and poet that has been created by the local Utah art communities. Auston talks about his string of bad luck and adheres to all listeners and how to re-assess how to address life as a person. Sitting down with Auston was very human and inspirational due to his near-death experience and the circumstances he's had to deal with his whole life. Definitely nothing but respect, appreciation, and self-awareness on this episode. This episode was sponsored by Muzic Clan Productions as well as our family at Omunity Moons. Enjoy!
