AARON SKYY'S Return To Music, Overcoming Hydrocephalus, Creative Therapy, Janet Jackson, & Tenacity!

AARON SKYY'S Return To Music, Overcoming Hydrocephalus, Creative Therapy, Janet Jackson, & Tenacity!

AARON SKYY is a star in the world of R&B, Trap, and Hip Hop music that has garnered a lot of attention, known for his soulful voice and emotionally charged lyrics. He was born in Lynnwood, California and raised in Compton until the age of 6, when he moved to Orange County. Skyy credits being prominently influenced by Maxwell, Justin Timberlake, and Prince Jodeci.


Aaron has been in the music scene since he was 19 years old. In 1997 he made his official debut with the release of his first single, The One. In the early 2000s, he signed with Red Ant Records and released his first album, Skyy’s the Limit. It quickly gained attention and sold an astounding number of records for a first album. This put him on the radar of industry insiders. Singles, The One and Chocolate became massively popular hits that defined the moment Aaron Skyy came into his own. Aaron Skyy's music has continued to evolve.

With the release of FREQUENCY, Skyy further proved his versatility as an artist. Skyy has toured with the likes of Maxwell, Donell Jones, and Beyoncé. While returning from his last UK tour, Aaron and his team made a shocking discovery. He had been diagnosed with hydrocephalus, a build-up of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain. In Aaron’s case, it was believed to be induced by stress. This life threatening condition forced him to leave the music scene and focus on getting better. After a near-death experience, multiple brain surgeries, and a lengthy recovery, he had a changed perspective on life and music.


Aaron realized that he had a greater purpose, and that his music had the power to inspire and uplift others. With renewed passion and drive, Aaron Skyy returned to the studio to create his latest project, THe ReTurn. The project showcases his growth as an artist and a person, with lyrics that are both introspective and inspiring. With a US tour on the way and additional projects in the works, expect to see a lot more of Aaron Skyy.

JON BRENNAN on The REAL WORLD Los Angeles, Country Music, The 90's, & More!

JON BRENNAN on The REAL WORLD Los Angeles, Country Music, The 90's, & More!

In the early 90's, MTV emerged with an all Television Genre known as "Reality TV." Initially the genre was meant to be a blip in the history, but as we've seen nearly 30+ years later, Reality TV has become a complete powerhouse. While the making-of has certainly changed, the early casts of The Real World certainly brought thee most authentic version of the art form. Jon Brennan was one of the breakout stars on Season 2's Venice Beach cast at the tender age of 18 years old. Growing up in Kentucky, Jon had never intended to join or even audition for The Real World. His experience in the Venice Beach House had led to some well-known notoriety which initially helped his Music Career, but also came with some stigma within the Music Industry and it's lack of experience of working with talented "Reality Stars." Throughout it all, the unique experience has allowed Jon to have a wonderful perspective and even more experience as he was cast is Season 2's, "The Real World, Homecoming." To support, make sure you log on to JonBrennan.com for more! The Podcast episode was powered by PATREON.COM/RandomlyRonnieJr
