Friday night on The Pop-Up!, Tacoma media professional and culture curator, Elisha Michelle, was back in the hosting seat for another Tacoma Takeover episode. Elisha, the visionary behind The Legendary Dope Show and the Legendary AF brand, spotlighted two renowned artists from the 253: KGodd and Sentu Taylor.

KGodd is a Federal Way, Washington-based artist bringing authentic West Coast flavor to the forefront. Versatile in his craft but rooted in that signature West Coast sound, KGodd is building momentum with his sights set on a global stage. With new music on the way, he’s just getting started on putting his city where it belongs: on the map.

Sentu Taylor is a Tacoma-bred creative entrepreneur whose work sits at the intersection of art, culture, and community. As the founder of the clothing brand “Random Idiot,” Sentu built a brand around the idea that self-awareness beats self-absorption, symbolized by a lightbulb wearing a dunce cap. Sentu is a published author, film writer, blogger, and graphic designer.
