Reason For My Rhyme - Charley's Song

The first song on this playlist, Ashley's Song, tells the story about a young indigenous man who lost his arm and leg in a train accident when he was only 15 and how that incident made him the man he is today.

Through the 4ZZZ and Whoopeedo Crew's collaboration, Taking Radio 2 Community, this and other stories of hope have been produced with residents at OzCare men's shelter in West End, using music as a way to show the strength of people who experience life on the streets.

Ashley and others talk about life in the upcoming radio series Home Truths, produced by Kim Stewart, Craig Garrett, Renee Jones and Nic Huntington and to be released in March 2019.
