    From growing up surrounded by music and trying to make it as a hip-hop artist, to reaching the point where he nearly gave it all away.

    Then came another shot.

    This week we get into the story of forming LMFAO, creating their sound, the early days before anyone knew who they were, and the insane rise that followed — Party Rock Anthem, Sexy and I Know It, global tours, massive festivals and becoming one of the biggest acts on the planet.

    We also dive into his connection with Australia, the Melbourne Shuffle, Stereosonic and the Aussie dance scene during one of its biggest eras.

    But what happens when that level of fame stops?

    Redfoo talks about where LMFAO sits today, whether he'd ever do it again, and what his life looks like now away from the madness.

    From struggling artist → giving up → LMFAO → global superstardom → life after Party Rock.

    This is the story of Redfoo.
