Descripción del Episodio

What happens when the thing you struggle with most becomes the very thing that saves you? In this encore episode, host Lynn Hoffman sits down with Riley Smithson — the LA-based electronic and hip-hop producer known as Shrimpnose — for a raw, unforgettable conversation about music as medicine, identity, and transformation.

This Music Saved Me episode is a testament to the healing power of music.

Riley Smithson grew up navigating the world with a stutter, a condition that shaped how he moved through life, how he connected with others, and ultimately, how he found his voice — not through words, but through sound. He opens up about the profound emotional weight of feeling unheard and how producing music became a form of self-expression that language alone couldn’t offer. What emerged from that struggle is a sonic identity that is entirely his own: innovative, genre-blending, and deeply human.

In this episode, Riley Smithson and Lynn Hoffman explore the moment music shifted from a passion to a lifeline, the creative process behind his distinctive style, and why the healing power of music is never really about perfection — it’s about release.

Whether you’re a longtime fan of Shrimpnose’s work or hearing his music saved me story for the first time, this conversation is a powerful reminder that our greatest challenges can become our most defining gifts.
