We had the good fortune of connecting with TJ Genosky and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi TJ, how has your background shaped the person you are today?
I’m from Burlington New Jersey I grew up as a child actor doing movies tv shows auditions constantly. I wasn’t the best in school I never enjoyed it and proffered music/photography. I dropped out of highschool to move to Los Angeles to pursue photography. It led me into music videos and working around a lot of artists and seeing all different styles. It influenced me to start making my own music which is where I’m at today just 4 days ago I dropped my first single Remember on all platforms and it’s doing amazing

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I think to get somewhere with you’re creativity it’s comes from taking a leap or doing something different from the rest of the world. I love to paint write music take photos make videos all different forms of art/creativity which I think is so important for myself to feel happy. I’ve learned that you need to live your life for yourself and do what makes you happy while making sure to be there for the ones who are there for you

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
We would go out to a dispensary probably check out Venice and the night would end with a party somewhere in the hills

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
My grandparents I wouldn’t be anywhere without them they took me in at a very young age when I had no one and helped me have the best life possible
