GrindXDesign 8-week Telecourse
Event Information
Description
GrindXDesign is an eight-week group tele-course designed to show you how to get into the hip-hop music industry.
The series—conducted via conference call, with up to 1,000 attendees—consists of eight live, one-hour "modules." That is, one discussion every Wednesday, for eight weeks.
The dates for the calls are as follows:
- August 29th
- September 5th, 12th, 19th, and 26th
- October 3rd, 10th and 17th
Each week, starting at 8:00pm ET, for 60-90 minutes by phone, we'll discuss everything you need to know to get a jump on the next man. The modules cover everything from producing to songwriting; mixtapes to social media; publicity to perfecting your mental state.
Each call features working experts from the hip-hop music business. Invited guests include:
- rapper Chuck D (Public Enemy)
- legal activist & author Wendy Day (Rap Coalition)
- producer D.J. Drama (The Aphilliates)
- producer D.J. Premier (Gang Starr)
- publishing administrator Jamie Purpora (TuneCore)
- editor-in-chief Kim Osorio (The Source)
- percussionist Questlove (The Roots)
- editor-in-chief Vanessa Satten (XXL)
- engineer/producer Young Guru
- attorney Dan Booth (Booth Sweet LLP)
- social media strategist Lena West (Influence Expansion)
- film executive Arthur Wylie (Only the Crazy and Fearless Win BIG!)
- mixtape mogul Marcus Frasier (DatPiff.com)
- and many more...
I've tapped into the expertise of the people I know, so that I can share their expertise with you.
Plus, a question-and-answer period has been designated for each call. This program has been structured to address as many questions as time allows. Don't worry; if you are unable to make a particular call, you will be given access to the call recording within 24-48 hours of the live call.
I invite you to join me in a revolution of the mind: GrindXDesign. Register today.
