Episode 129 - 360 - The dark side of fame & addiction, too a new found sense of self and god
Today, I sit down with 360, a defining figure in Australian hip-hop. If you were tuned into the scene in the early 2010s, his name was impossible to miss. His album Falling & Flying wasn’t just successful—It dominated the charts and cemented his place at the forefront of the music industry.But while his career was thriving, his personal life was crumbling.360 has been open about his battle with codeine addiction—an addiction so severe that at one point, he was consuming up to 90 pills a day. It pushed him to the brink, nearly costing him his life. In this conversation, we go beyond the headlines. We talk about the pressure that came with fame, the mental toll of chasing success, and the dark spiral that followed.This is an honest, raw, and powerful insight into the man behind the music, his fight to reclaim his life, and the lessons he’s learned along the way.National tour: https://360music.com.au/shows?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaYzi2wmDHLX536FBt-rn0wO60x_NGPu3xfuUH-zpGj2TXpegDoCrfCEPbA_aem_F5d2vBXkVcElf3PtGXHAsQConnect with 360 and myself:https://www.instagram.com/3ree6ixty/https://www.instagram.com/dnms.with.dean/https://www.instagram.com/deanos_mykonos/This episode is brought to you by Athletic Greens.If a comprehensive solution is what you need from your supplement routine, then Athletic Greens is giving youA FREE 1-year supply of Vitamin D AND 5 free travel packs with your first purchase.
