Thanks, @swiggle_mandela & @g.swendsen, for  🛑👋 The Stoop‼️  •  @swiggle_mandela wrote his first “rap” in the year 2000 when he was 9 years old. When he was 11, he would record tapes on old stereo systems until he learned of a free recording studio for kids located in Northeastern Portland. Therefore in middle school, Swiggle began giving away CDs in an attempt to build a fan base, which would only continue to grow, especially when given the opportunity when he was 20 to open for Dead Prez, D12, and Immortal Technique at the Wonder Ballroom. At 30 years old, he is one of the most prominent Hip-Hop artists in Oregon with over 50 music videos and performing regularly at Kelly’s Olympian and Roseland Theather. Swiggle’s music encompasses the concepts of love, unity, and having fun but can be at times can serious and profound. When he is not performing on stage, Swiggle is mentoring other young artists, students, and incarcerated youth to make the world a better place for the next generation.  •  @g.swendsen is an emerging artist from the Pacific Northwest and is making himself a name through his music.

Thanks, @tim_judah for 🛑👋 The Stoop‼️  •  Cincinnati Musician & @redefinemuzik group member @tim_judah ‼️  •  “I’m Tim Judah, a musician from Cincinnati, OH, and I make music for people to vibe to as I share my gifted talents and creativity with the world. I don’t want to put myself in a box as far as what genre of music I release. I want to be an all-around creator that forges connections with all of those who listen. My new single “Gassin’” will be released on all platforms on August 6th at midnight. The song sheds light on how it feels to have my loved ones supporting me in my endeavors. I also think it’s essential to be confident in yourself because if you aren’t, you’ll have regrets about the choices you could’ve but didn’t take. I’m not gonna have any and neither should you 👑”  •  Website: www.legendzofthestoop.com  Sponsored by: Follow the Trees Ride the Vibe (Promo code: StoopLegendz)  Intro: Colby.wav/Redge  Audio Equipment: Conrad Flater

Thanks, @1slimtrendy for 🛑👋 The Stoop‼️  •  Khalil Young a.k.a Slim Trendy, Pittsburgh Rapper‼️  •  “Hi everyone, my name is Khalil Young, but those who know me call me by my stage name, Slim Trendy or Slim for short. I reside in Pittsburgh, Pa, where I am an active presence in the music scene. I started making music about seven years ago but didn’t seriously start pursuing and perfecting my sound until about two years ago. These past couple of years have been grueling but rewarding as I have experienced many memorable events and have collaborated with other talented creatives along the way. I want my music to channel everyone’s inner demons, force them to take them head-on, to then be able to unleash the hero that resides in all of us! Whatever that might mean for you, I just want those around me to succeed in their endeavors as me for mine.”  •  Website: www.legendzofthestoop.com  Sponsored by: Follow the Trees Ride the Vibe (Promo code: StoopLegendz)  Intro: Colby.wav/Redge  Audio Equipment: Conrad Flater

Thanks Dad for 🛑👋 The Stoop‼️  •  Frank Pernice, owner of whatscookinatcaseys.net ‼️  •  “Upon graduating from IUP, I started my career with my uncle, selling grocery and HBC items to national wholesale and retail accounts primarily on the East Coast. I took some dead accounts, developed relationships with the buyers, and turned them into market leaders. I then moved on to SUPERVALU in Charleston, South Carolina as an HBC buyer and secondary wholesale sales consultant, where I developed a profit center for the Southeast market. I then moved back to Pittsburgh in 1994 and worked for Thrift Drug Inc, the sixth-largest Drugstore in the U.S. I started as the grocery buyer and was promoted to secondary wholesale manager and Pharmaceutical sourcing consultant. After Thrift Drug merged with Ecker Drug and offices were moved to Florida, I started my own company Steel City Trading. There I was importing nationally branded products from Canada and selling to wholesale and retail accounts in the U.S. simultaneously; I went to work for GNC in downtown Pittsburgh as a Senior buyer for the Sports Nutrition category. All this experience in purchasing, sales, contract negotiation, and inventory management lends itself well to what I do today. Running a restaurant is managing people, managing inventory, listening to your guests to see what they are hungry for, and motivating your staff to provide excellent service and create an experience that will bring patrons back. I am honored to serve the people of Oakmont and the surrounding communities; I thank you for all your support through the pandemic and this overall challenging yet exciting year. I look forward to making Casey’s a part of your family’s history like Oakmont is for mine.” - Frank Pernice  •  Website: www.legendzofthestoop.com  Sponsored by: Follow the Trees Ride the Vibe (Promo code: StoopLegendz)  Intro: Colby.wav/Redge  Audio Equipment: Conrad Flater
