Episode 25: "From the $hadows With Love"
Quie
Los Angeles, CA
What defines real success in the music industry? Quie Francis joins me from the Velvet Room in Los Angeles to share his remarkable journey from New Orleans to becoming an independent artist carving his own path.
Quie opens up about his childhood in Louisiana, where gunshots were a nightly soundtrack. With a Trinidadian mother who instilled entrepreneurial values and a father who played drums alongside James Brown, music has always been in his blood. When Hurricane Katrina forced his family to relocate, it became the first step in a series of life-changing moves that would eventually lead him to Los Angeles.
The conversation takes us through pivotal moments that shaped Quie's perspective – from sleeping in his Wrangler after driving cross-country to chase his dreams, to studio sessions with A$AP Ferg, to the recent release of his EP "From The Shadows With Love." He shares how mentorship in the industry taught him to observe and learn, while also navigating the darker aspects of the business with integrity.
What makes this episode particularly powerful is Quie's philosophy on personal growth. "If a fish is in a small bowl, it doesn't know about the ocean," he explains, emphasizing how travel and new experiences have expanded his worldview and created opportunities. His insights on authenticity, mental health, and defining success on his own terms will resonate with anyone pursuing their passion.

In honor of those who served our country. During times of peace and war. Those who gave the supreme sacrifice, Those still missing and those who came home both whole and broken.
In honor of those still fighting everyday to keep their head above water.
