PPP Poetry Lounge

The Barbershop has always been more than a place for a haircut. It's a sanctuary, a space built for peace, laughter, and connection.

In this Poetry Lounge debut, CandyJae reflects on the unspoken rule of keeping politics out of certain spaces, not out of ignorance, rather out of respect for energy and community. This spoken-word piece explores why some rooms were created to restore us, not divide us.

This episode invites listeners to consider the wisdom there is when speaking on politics in shared spaces. and how informative it could be for people that don't understand politics.

Barbershop Talk on corporations vs independent.

This track is a salute to the ones who move different — the ones who build, hustle, create, and rise without waiting for permission. “The Independent Grind” is a tribute to the elite mindset it takes to carry your own vision, fund your own dreams, and stand on your own standards in a world built on shortcuts and handouts.

CandyJae breaks down the pressure, the discipline, and the emotional toll behind being self-driven. This track highlights the sacrifices, the lonely moments, the silent wins, and the unwavering belief required to walk the independent path. This grind isn’t for the weak or the wavering — it’s for those who understand that leadership, creativity, and consistency demand a different level of soul.

This conversation fuels the listener with encouragement, clarity, and truth: independence is expensive, selective, and powerful. Not everyone can carry it. Not everyone is built for it. And that’s exactly what makes it elite.

Pressure makes diamonds — and the independent grind reveals them.
