160 features an old friend of mine who has been making a name for himself behind the scenes in the music industry for almost a decade. My man Brett Bassock is in The Booth and we had an amazing conversation on this episode.
Brett has worn many hats in his time in music and has been an instrumental part in making artists, producers, and songwriters careers blossom. 🌷
In episode 160 we discussed:
-Brett's early days in music: Raised in Connecticut by music-loving parents, Brett has always had a true passion for all types of music. He got involved in tons of different music-related events and shows that he would put on for the community. He has some incredible stories from his early days (involving Usher for example) that you have to hear! ⭐️
-Becoming the connector: Brett has experience in artist management/development, publishing, A&R, event curation and has worked at various labels while learning from some of the most experienced people in the industry. Now, Brett has unique insight on how to put together the best teams in order to create desired outcomes - his invaluable experience and ability to bring out the best in others is what makes him a special member of the music industry. 🤝
-Building "Renegade Songs": Brett runs an LA based management/publishing company with a focus on artist/songwriter/producer development at an early stage in their career. Renegade Songs is truly special because Brett makes sure to consider the mental health status of each person he works with. His calculated approach has led some of his artists to work with worldwide talent like Selena Gomez, Bebe Rexha, MATOMA, G-Eazy and more. 👏
-Artist Q&A - I had a great conversation with Brett on how the world of management and publishing works when you are an upcoming artist. I receive questions all the time on things like "When is it time for management" - "How do I make money in the music industry?" - and "How do I get discovered?". Brett gave some amazing insight on questions like this - would highly recommend paying close attention to this section if you have questions like these! 📝
Truly a pleasure to connect with Brett and get a behind-the-scenes look on the role he plays in the industry. I love interviewing people like Brett because I strongly believe they are the bridges that connect all the "towns" of artists. 🏘🎵
Incredible to see how much he has accomplished over the years and I can't wait to see the impact he is going to make on a long-term scale. 📈
Much love and respect my man and thank you coming on! 💯
