From Next Generation to Entrepreneur: Music & Building Moani | Micah G Keeps It Aloha (Ep. 226)
Q: What led you to start Moani Kapolei and Moani Waikiki?
Promoting at nightclubs and seeing the gaps in the live music scene, plus family collaboration and a desire to create a space where musicians could grow, led us to open Moani Kapolei and later expand to Waikiki.

Q: When did you first start Next Generation and how did that shape your early career?
We started while still in high school, releasing an album and performing widely, which helped us build a strong local following and set the stage for both our music and future business ventures.
