#1 Modi Oyewole - Jabari Johnson's Words with Friends

Support this podcast with a tip for as little as $1 an episode at www.patreon.com/jabari Welcome to the first episode of the Words With Friends podcast! I'm going to be interviewing my friends that I think people can learn a thing or two from on this show. Some music industry folks, some artists, just people who I think are incredible and have something to say about life, careers, and things that we are all experiencing as millennials (I don't even know if i like that word but whatever). With that being said, Modi Oyewole is one of the co-founders of DC to BC, an event company that most notably throws the Trillectro Music Festival in Washington, DC. We talk about Modi growing up in DC, his growth as a man, and ending up working for Nike in Portland, Oregon. Some highlights include: Going to the same private school as Obama's kids Meeting Ty Dolla Sign's father Having the first Kid Cudi interview ever and then Kid Cudi hating him Trillectro and starting a music festival from scratch Ups and downs of social media His new job at Nike "The more occupied you are the better you schedule your life" - Modi Oyewole Follow Modi at www.twitter.com/DCtoBC and www.instagram.com/DCtoBC ***Please excuse any sound hiccups, it peaks at times but this is my first one!
