🎙️ Episode 8: The Come Up | 5 Disc Changer Podcast
In this episode, Ashley Autumn sits down with independent artists Ja'Cee. (country singer, Bluebird Café debut) and Lindsey Kaye (singer, actress in The Color Purple) to talk about the journey of “the come up” in today’s music industry.
They swap their 5 Disc Changer picks—from Usher, 50 Cent, and Stevie Wonder to Marvin Gaye and Glorilla—while unpacking the nostalgia, healing, and real-life lessons behind the music.
The conversation dives deep into:
-
Breaking barriers as Black independent artists in Nashville
-
Balancing family, authenticity, and the grind of music
-
Social media vs. real-life hustle in building a fanbase
-
Staying true to yourself in a trend-driven industry
-
The cultural weight of music then vs. now
The crew keeps it real with laughs, wisdom, and raw reflections on faith, love, and authenticity. From parking lot anthems to liner note reflections, this episode is all about the heart and hustle of the independent grind.
