EP #659 SPEECH - ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT
THE VIBEwith Kelly Cardenas presentsSPEECH - ARRESTED DEVELOPMENTTodd "Speech" Thomas is a Grammy-winning artist, poet, and trailblazing cultural icon whose impact on hip-hop, social justice, and Black culture is both profound and enduring. As the visionary leader of Arrested Development, the two-time Grammy Award-winning hip-hop collective, Speech has used music as a force for empowerment, reflection, and positive change. His artistry and activism have paved the way for generations, blending socially conscious themes with a commitment to equity, unity, and creative integrity. Since their debut in 1991, Speech and Arrested Development have been a groundbreaking influence in hip-hop, celebrated for their bold reimagining of the genre. Their debut album, 3 Years, 5 Months and 2 Days in the Life of…, sold over 4 million copies and garnered numerous accolades, including Grammys for Best New Artist and Best Rap Single (“Tennessee”), two MTV Awards, a Soul Train Music Award, and an NAACP Image Award. Rolling Stone named them Band of the Year, and VH-1 recognized Arrested Development as one of the greatest hip-hop artists of all time. Their hit song "Tennessee" was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's list of the "500 Songs That Shaped Rock and Roll," a testament to its lasting influence on music and culture. Speech’s contributions were spotlighted in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution's acclaimed documentary South Has Got Something to Say, where he remarked, “There would be no Outkast without Arrested Development”—a powerful reminder of Arrested Development's role in shaping Southern hip-hop and paving the way for future icons. Arrested Development’s fusion of Afrocentric spirituality, social consciousness, and community-centered themes forged a path in hip-hop that few have rivaled, influencing artists globally and solidifying their legacy as cultural innovators. Despite these contributions, Speech and Arrested Development’s pioneering role in popular culture is often underrecognized, though their influence is undeniable.In 2024, Speech’s legendary status was further cemented as he joined an elite lineup performing with Queen Latifah, Common, De La Soul on the CBS Grammy Tribute to 50 Years of Hip Hop. This performance underscored his contributions to the genre, which were also recently honored by the State of Georgia with the prestigious Privilege House Resolution, recognizing his lifelong dedication to the arts, social justice, and cultural advocacy.

EP #657 PAUL McCARTHY
THE VIBEwith Kelly Cardenas presents PAUL McCARTHYDirector of Sales at Hero Facility Services, husband to Marcee, proud dad and Big Mac to my grandson Mason. But titles don’t tell the story.I was adopted as a baby, lost my brother at 14, and spent years running from pain I didn’t know how to process. I battled addiction, shame, and a belief that I wouldn’t live past 21. But God had other plans.What the world saw as broken, He saw as the beginning.Today, I lead with faith. I show up with authenticity. I use my story—not to impress people—but to impact them. Whether I’m mentoring men, helping facility managers solve headaches, or just having a real conversation, I keep it simple:Be kind. Be real. Give God the glory.At work, I lead with the principles Jesus modeled: humility, service, consistency, and grace. Sales isn’t about chasing deals—it’s about building trust, solving problems, and being the first call when things go wrong.I’m not perfect, but I’m proof that God uses the messy parts for a mission. My life is no longer about success—it’s about surrender.http://linkedin.com/in/paul-mccarthy1101INCHSTONES PLAYBOOKhttps://a.co/d/hil3nloSUBSCRIBE TO MY SUBSTACKhttps://thevibebykellycardenas.substack.com?r=4nn6y5&utm_medium=iosBUY THE VIBE BOOK https://a.co/d/6tgAJ4c BUY BLING https://shop.kellycardenas.com/products/kelly-cardenas-salon-bling SUPPORT HIGH FIVES FOUNDATION https://highfivesfoundation.org/ EXECUTIVE PRODUCER - BROOKLYN CARDENAS https://www.brooklyncardenas.com/
