Are you a multi-faceted creative with diverse ambitions but don't know where to focus your energy?

The traditional “blueprint” to becoming successful in the music industry is becoming more & more outdated - the possibilities for entrepreneurship have expanded and artists don’t have to be pigeonholed into one lane. From content creation, to educational products, to brand partnerships, there are now endless ways to monetize your brand.

We're be joined by Jay Manuel, aka Mini Producer, and Jhny Wzdm who has found success in multiple pursuits including music production, acting, & influencer content creation.

-----------------

Atlanta-based music producer Jay Manuel, better known as Mini Producer, started his music production journey at the age of 14, after receiving his first music equipment set, from his father. Over the years, he has worked with both major and independent recording artists, gaining considerable industry experience and knowledge along the way.

To date, MP has been giving his audience a front row seat into the inner workings of his life on his Youtube Vlog Channel. He also hosts his IG LIVE Music Review Show titled, "The Come Up" in which artists and producers submit their best tracks for review by him and a celebrity host to give their honest feedback in real time. MP does this all while producing music, auditioning for acting roles, creating influencer content and submitting for voiceover placements.
