The one with the former drug addict emcee ft Jimmy Davis

Welcome to Episode 10 of the Game is the Game.

 

I've been fortunate in life to meet an array of inspirational individuals across varied professions. The Game is the Game is an opportunity for them to tell their stories and hopefully inspire others to find their calling.

On this episode I sit down with Jimmy Davis.

Jimmy Davis is a multi-faceted talent. Emcee, university lecturer, podcast host, presenter, public speaker, DJ and everything else in between.

We first met circa 2013 when I saw Jimmy support Luke Concannon (formerly Nizlopi) at a gig in London.

His music immediately resonated with me because he was an emcee willing to spit about more than the usual mundane subjects associated with the genre. 

Socially conscious and hard hitting lyricism matched with must see stage presence led to Jimmy and I forming a connection which has existed for many years.

Yet for all of his music success - Jimmy has a deeper story that speaks to personal hurdles he had to overcome, that being drug addiction and how he came out the other side.

Jimmy didnt hesitate to agree when I asked him if he was willing to chop this all up on the game is the game. I hope you enjoy the episode.
