Growing up in Jim Crow-era Louisiana, Slim moved to California for a better life. Although he went to the prestigious Lowell High School and played in blues bands, he was attracted to the nightlife of Fillmore Street and entered into the pimp game. As a musician and a player, Slim came across the likes of Etta James, Ike and Tina, SF Mayors Willie Brown and London Breed, and rappers like Snoop Dogg and Suga Free. His experience in the entertainment industry includes being friends with Rudy Ray Moore aka Dolemite and turning down the lead in "The Mack." -- Sponsored by Stem Social https://stemsocial.io https://instagram.com/stem.social Also sponsored by Lost Soul Courier Collective - call or text (415) 275-1922 for free Narcan delivery in San Francisco https://lostsoulcouriercollective.org For more info contact @traceyh415 -- For promo opportunities on the podcast, e-mail: [email protected] --- History of the Bay Spotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3ZUM4rCv6xfNbvB4r8TVWU?si=9218659b5f4b43aa Online Store: https://dregsone.myshopify.com Follow Dregs One: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1UNuCcJlRb8ImMc5haZHXF?si=poJT0BYUS-qCfpEzAX7mlA Instagram: https://instagram.com/dregs_one TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@dregs_one Twitter: https://twitter.com/dregs_one Facebook: https://facebook.com/dregsone415 --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/historyofthebay/support
