Amplifying more gems from our incredible conversation with JaiYoko ENT soon. 🧡💎

Doing… You’re DOING, not trying. Give yourself the credit homie.

My vision is rooted in education. I believe in starting at the root—teaching artists how this industry works, so they can build careers on their own terms. Big thanks to my name is JAZZ (like the music) 🎶 and @unearthlystudios for having me on #IndustryTrailblazersChat 🤞🏾

A lot of creatives are struggling in the music industry because they don’t understand the BUSINESS they’re getting in. You can’t win at monopoly if you don’t know the rules. THE MUSIC INDUSTRY IS A ✨BUSINESS!✨

The most critical part of any album rollout is the artist’s full commitment. Without it, even the best plans fall flat. Some labels can’t even get their artists to accept an IG collab post. Clipse are putting in overtime.

Teaching creatives how to admin their publishing (aka collect their own royalties) >>> doing it on their behalf. I LOVE TEACHING creatives how to fish and feed THEMSELVES for LIFE!!

"Humble thy self" - @jaiyokoent 💎 For artists, creatives, and entrepreneurs, this is a message for you. Nobody succeeds alone. Your team is everything, and how you treat them matters. Full episode live on YouTube 🎥 More trailblazer chats coming soon.

Independent doesn’t mean you have to be alone…

I miss when songs featured in movies used to incorporate the MOVIE in their MUSIC VIDEI!! Literal clips/chorography/characters from the movie IN the video!! The cross marketing was INSANE
