Sep 15 2021 • 1 hr 30 mins

Welcome to Season 2, Episode 8 of Deeply-Rooted…our second season finale – woot, woot!!  For this week’s episode, we turned tables and flipped script…landing our Season 2 finale guest in the hot seat. Please join us in celebrating and giving some MUCH deserved flowers to the creator, innovator, levitator, host, visionary, leader, and seed…from which sprouted and grew the Deeply-Rooted podcast, web series, community, discussion group, social network, culture and vibe of the Deeply-Rooted tribe – my friend, Tony Wisdom…aka…Tony Gaines…aka…Don Dada of all things Deeply-Rooted.

A locally grown –LFK legend – who’s a father first in his personal life…community oriented, to say the least….and has dedicated himself to the pursuit of healing oneself, for the sole purpose of then being able to heal and help and show others the way, as well. Professionally, he spent 20 years in the music business as a Producer, Engineer, Label Owner, and Executive. Tony is self-taught and self-trained – both in music and in the tools to create it – learning via perseverance, dedication, and a crazy level work ethic. All of with,he provided himself the opportunity to work with industry heavyweights such as Berner, Raekwon, Shock G, Tech N9ne, Rich the Factor, J Diggs, Young Buck, as well as,a slew of other artists.

After many moons in the music industry, there came a point in life where Tony felt there to be a greater need or calling. His wish was to know the answers that can help you figure out what to do with your life or understand who you are and how you want to roll as a person.  Amassing a lot of information – via an insane reading habit he picked up, as well as, lots and lots of networking and speaking to peeps from all around the world in an attempt to gather and understand new perspectives - and then utilizing this information to form a more concrete view of himself and in turn, the world around him.  After which, gaining a better understanding of how life works – what is needed and not needed to have inner peace, be happy, feel cleansed, vibrate higher…aka…all the good stuff.

Feeling the need to achieve balance between heart and mind…to experience healing, cleansing, and soothing of the soul, in order to obtain greater creativity, deeper awareness, a death of ego and one day, enlightenment…is what drives and is the core motivation for this week’s guest, our Deeply-Rooted creator and host, Tony Wisdom Gaines.  Fueled by a strong desire to excel…to keep challenging himself to be better and to keep raising his own personal bar of excellence….Tony is and always will be game for anything – forever aggressive when it comes to opportunities and his pursuit of them – all that ‘type A’ behavior and flair, while still naturally able to attune to the moods and emotions of others…organically, able to see, hear, and feel what others don’t – AKA – The Magic that is Tony Wisdom Gaines.

With this incredible innate ability of seeing the future he wants to achieve almost as if it were in the present….that right there, is Law of Attraction in the most profound sense.  Tony is the perfect example of explosive dynamism and charisma – determined and focused – but at the same time humane and benevolent, always working for the greater good.

Buckle up…we’re going EXTRA deep.
