On episode 154 with inter­na­tion­al DJ and pro­duc­er CMC$ (Yael Nahar) dur­ing the @lakesideliveca event in Keno­ra, Ontario. CMC$ shares his incred­i­ble jour­ney from near­ly quit­ting the music indus­try to achiev­ing viral suc­cess with hits like ​“Wake Up Call.” He dis­cuss­es how his time at the Her­man Brood Acad­e­mie, along­side Mar­tin Gar­rix, shaped his career and how Guc­ci Mane’s influ­ence played a sur­pris­ing role in his music. We also dive into the cre­ative process behind his sig­na­ture future bass and trap sound, the chal­lenges he faced, and what keeps him inspired. Whether you’re an aspir­ing artist or just a fan of great music, this episode offers deep insights into the life and mind of CMC$.

Tune in for an inspir­ing con­ver­sa­tion that reveals the highs and lows of a career in the music indus­try and what it takes to stay at the top.
