The Josie Show

Guests are Teen talk show host Lenore Luca, and Grime Artist Dreema. Lenore is the host of 'Teen Groove On The Move', and internet radio show like The Josie Show, located at teengrooveonthemove.com In his school life he was picked on a lot because of how he looked or the clothes he wore, sometimes even both, which made life stressful. As he got older his granddad (his idol and the only one to ever push him to his dream) gave him a keyboard to play and his music started from there. He would spend hours on end up in his room trying to compose a song but never quite grasped the concept of writing music. He took music as a GCSE at school in year 10 but his results came back as a G. After failing his music GCSE he moved away from music and set his sights on applying for jobs, in which he had no look no matter how hard he tried. At the age of 19 life was getting more and more stressful and Dreema ended up being diagnosed with depression along with low blood pressure. The stress that people brought sometimes got too much and so he turned his head towards music. Just writing down his feelings and making the words fit together he started to use instrumentals he could find off Youtube.

As most kids wait anxiously for their turn on the slide, ride on the zip line, or shot at the four square court, another group forms around a solitary raised platform. At any other time of day, this spot would be unremarkable. But after lunch, at this elementary school, it is transformed into a stage… where Skyler would perform. And from nearby this makeshift venue, educators can witness a mini “Hard Day’s Night” moment. From these unusual beginnings, it should be no surprise that by 6th grade, Skyler was a multi-instrumentalist; by 7th grade, he was sleeping on the couch, so as not disturb the sanctity of the recording studio that his bedroom had become; or that by 9th grade, he had released his first full-length, all original CD
