Using An Alarm Clock To Create a 3-Part Harmony - Ron Smith | Ep. 7
"Using An Alarm Clock To Create a 3-Part Harmony"
In this episode of the Creative Roots Podcast, we sit down with Ron Smith — a gospel artist, lyricist, rapper, singer, and father — whose journey from adversity to purpose is nothing short of inspiring.
From creating 3-part harmonies with nothing but an alarm clock to building a lasting music program for youth at the Boys & Girls Club in Jersey, Ron shares how his faith, environment, and drive helped him rise above excuses. Now partnered with Holy Culture Radio, the only major station for gospel hip hop, Ron’s mission is clear: use his gift to serve others, elevate the culture, and lead with impact.
If you’re a fan of Christian rap, gospel music, independent artists, or want to hear how music education can change lives, this one’s a must-watch.
