On episode 22 of The Buddy Ruski Show, Justin interviews Lord Fess.
Fess is a rapper and entrepreneur hailing from Baltimore, Maryland but has called Durham home for most of his life. He is one of the first people I met on the scene way back in the early aughts when he was performing as part of the rap duo Toon & The Real Laww under the alias Professor Toon. Good times… good times.
We talked about overcoming childhood traumas and how those early experiences shaped the rest of his life and his music. As a student at Durham School of the Arts, Fess says being a “theatre kid” is where he developed his love for the stage. It wasn’t until years later that his love and knack for rapping would catch up.
Recently, Fess has pivoted into other creative endeavors including talent management and podcasting while still finding time to continue honing his craft as a musician.
