For our Season 4 finale, we made history with our first-ever live show at Thirsty First in Lowell, MA , and it was only right that we brought out a legend. In this unforgettable episode, we sit down with Termanology, the rapper who put 978 on the map and whose music has taken him all over the world, collaborating with some of the biggest names in hip-hop.
But this conversation goes deeper than music. We explore Termanology’s real story from being inspired by his mom’s ex-boyfriend who rapped, to the moment he knew he was destined to become an artist. We also dive into the heart of who he is today: a proud father, a community leader, and the founder of Good Dad Gang, a movement dedicated to highlighting the importance of fatherhood.
We talk about the inspiration behind his book "100 Ways to Be a Better Dad", how he's helping change the narrative around fathers, and the incredible impact of his annual backpack drives ,now reaching far beyond Lawrence and into cities across the country.
At its core, this episode reveals the man behind the music (Daniel) a genuine soul, a loving father, a loyal friend, and a selfless leader dedicated to lifting up his friends, family, and community without hesitation. His journey reminds us that true success isn’t just about making it , it’s about bringing others with you, giving back, and building a legacy that lasts.
This finale is all about love, legacy, and living with purpose. Thank you for rocking with us all season and trust us, we’re just getting started.
