In this episode of "Hub City Now" host Tyrone Tony Reed Jr. interviewed singer Kristian Duncan.

Duncan spoke about his love of music and spreading his message of love and peace. He also spoke about overcoming depression and who helped him and loved him through it and about his new single “Success” and how the song came about to be because of that person.

Duncan also spoke working behind the music scene and gave advice to those who are thinking about or actively pursuing a career in music.

A portion of the sales of “Success”, which hit number 113 on the Apple iTunes USA R &B/Soul charts, will go to The Piney Woods School’s Woodsen Center, which is hosting a virtual fundraiser to support its scholarship fund. You can find out more at pineywoods.org.
