I love when Spiritual leaders choose not to be discreet about other people's achievements when things of life are been discussed. It’s acceptable, in my opinion, for Christian singers to be signed by record labels; Tems’ victory in the Christian/Inspirational categories at the BETAwards shouldn’t make any Christian artists feel terrible. KIrk Franklin is under RCA Inspiration which the Parent company is Sony Music, Franklin has received 20 Grammy Awards, and 22 GMA Dove Awards. He has also received the BET Awards, he has won Soul Train Music Awards and Stellar Awards. All of these things wouldn’t have happened if his only priorities had been church invitations, self-management, or starting his own label independently of Major Label. Tems who recently won the #betawards is also under Same RCA Records which the parent company is Sony Music. This clearly indicates that having millions of fans or having excellent music are not as important as gaining international reputation, which can only occur under excellent global management. Here are some tips I have for Christian musicians: 1. Don’t see of record labels as something worldly; some producers who work on Christian Melody also compose music for mainstream artists. 2. Don’t just kick back and evaluate how you’re doing with church invites. Build a community of fans that will aid in the promotion of your music. 3. Keep in mind that everyone is in this world, and you should be aware that you must stay until the very end. It’s okay to be a member of the winning team; do not view awards as things that are not appreciated by Angels. 4. Appreciate music from different genres; not all genres are associated with devilry, and don’t view mainstream musicians as sinners.

We end a chapter in music history. The last album from legendary musician Childish Gambino has been released and has received critical acclaim from the masses. He leaves a legacy that many have built upon, inspiring many to start their own musical journeys and transform their musical styles. An authentic talent from a person that has many talents to speak of, whether it be directing and acting or being a producer and artist, Childish Gambino is in a league with the likes of Pharrell and many others, rising above the majority of talents with his cultural impact and prowess. I think this record emulates his last thoughts being in the music industry this long, the trials and errors, the lessons, and then realisations that happened through out his career, from songs like In the Night to No Excuses (this song being reminiscent of his ep Summer Pack) really tying to his music legacy track by track with meticulously placed features that make this record what it is. Donald Glover (Childish Gambino) spoke about his departure from music, saying, “There’s nothing worse than like a third sequel, like a third movie, and we’re like, ‘again?’” from his interview with Revolt Magazine, referring to his music becoming "expected" and dragged out when that's not his true intention. I think musicians can learn from this and really reflect, knowing when to stop. As in, talent and creativity will always be there, but when the feeling and authenticity leave, you should follow them and not force your art, because forceful art is the downfall of any great artist. #musiclegacy #unmatchedtalent #culturalicon #endofanera #youngtalent #creativeways #musicanmindset #knowingwhentostepback

“True talent is timeless, and appreciation comes from unexpected places. Which means we should not only never give up on sharing our gifts, but we also should never be remiss in celebrating the contributions of others.” I needed to hear this on this morning as I push through finishing a project I started years ago and have been working on in fits and starts. The fight in your own mind to work on something that is truly your own…and not something someone else told you to do…is dangerous. It’s risky. There is no-one and nothing else to point to when things don’t go well. Full frontal responsibility. Being an entrepreneur is not the same as being a gifted artist but, in many ways it is. You stand alone on the stage and expose your talent in a space where everyone can (and will) point and place judgment. And, you continue to stand…. Work on your art Fail Try again Trip and fall Stand with scraped knees You keep moving. What keeps me moving is actually looking back first. How far I have come. The lives I have already changed. Not because I have deluded myself in believing I have had impact. But, because I have been told by those who I have partnered with. Because I have been on the receiving end of appreciation. (And, that is so very hard to say as someone deeply trained in toxic humility.) Then, I look to the impact I am currently having. The work I am doing now. The projects that are moving forward and out of the place of ideation. Finally, I imagine what the future will look like for others (and, as a result, for me and my daughter) as I continue to show up. Whatever you are doing in the world, know you have impact. You are inspiring someone. You are encouraging others as you push forward. You are being an example of what is possible. You are showing others what simple, non-brag-worthy, quiet meaningful impact, and hidden greatness looks like. Appreciate your own progress and process because it is unlike anyone else’s. Keep putting one foot in front of the other. Keep moving. XOXO

Last night something beautiful happened: Respect and appreciation of talent was shown on a world stage. Performing for the first time publicly in years, 59 year old folk singer and songwriter Tracy Chapman sang her 36 year old iconic song, “Fast Car”, with 33 year old country music star Luke Combs. Tracy started the song to thunderous applause, the two exchanged verses while joining in beautiful harmony, and then Tracy ended, again to immense appreciation from the crowd. Yet, throughout the duration of the song, Luke could be seen singing along to the words under his breath as he watched- with genuine overt admiration- Tracy perform. Talented artists and icons in the crowd stood up, lifted their arms, cheered along. A song spanning generations and genres, Luke’s recent revival of the tune earned Tracy the first black songwriter to ever top the Country Billboards. Although she had performed the song at the Grammys in the late 1980’s and had recognition, at that time she was considered a “side along to Bruce Springsteen” or a last-minute fill-in for Stevie Wonder. I’ve always loved Tracy’s music. “Talkin’ Bout a Revolution”, “Baby Can I Hold You” and my absolute favourite, “Sing For You” often make my monthly playlist. But to watch the immense appreciation of her songwriting, lyrical, musical, and vocal talent be on display last night was something I wish we saw far more of. I’m thrilled that Tracy and Luke are gaining new fans. I’m thrilled for what must be an immensely humbling and exciting experience for them. But mostly, I’m thrilled for all of us. Because what that shows us is: True talent is timeless, and appreciation comes from unexpected places. Which means we should not only never give up on sharing our gifts, but we also should never be remiss in celebrating the contributions of others. As you go about this week, showcase your talent, don’t shirk from it afraid that it’s “not enough” or worry about what others might say. And also, champion the talent of those around you. It’s never too late. It’s never the wrong audience or market. It’s just the right thing. And right things? Well, they always seem to come to fruition- no matter the timing. Happy Growing, M. #MullMentum #NarrativeLeadership #GenerationalLeadership

The Elephant in the Room...The Truth Hurts. "Every single one's got a story to tell Everyone knows about it From the Queen of England to the Hounds of Hell" - Seven Nation Army, The White Stripes Let's face it, music industry folks get it wrong often. But mistakes and getting it wrong are key and crucial to learning and getting it right. We all have stories. When I was at V2 back in the day, went with Jeremy Pearce etc to see The White Stripes for the first time as we were looking to sign them in a big deal. They had just independently released their "White Blood Cells" album. I liked them but wasn't 100% convinced especially with the weight of the deal. Thankfully the rest of the crew saw the potential, V2 signed them, and the album they delivered, the mighty "Elephant" (featuring "Seven Nation Army") ended up being one of our label's biggest successes and The White Stripes ended up being one of my favourite groups ever. The Lesson? Surround yourself with the greatest team of really talented authentic smart music people you can find, so if you slip up and make a mistake, the others won't, and you'll all win. The big question is, what will the UK Music industry choose to learn from Raye? “Raye’s six Brit awards marked a huge vindication for the newly independent artist and rightly shamed the major label that apparently couldn’t see her potential”. #music #musicbusiness #ukmusic #truth #womenentrepreneurs #womeninmusic #musicindustry #lessonslearned
Raye’s record-breaking Brits defied the limited imaginations of the British music industry

The story revolves around the renowned violinist Joshua Bell and his unique social experiment in a Washington, D.C. subway station in 2007. In this experiment, Joshua Bell, one of the world's most celebrated violinists, played a Stradivarius violin worth around $3.5 million. For 45 minutes, he performed famous classical pieces in an unexpected and unconventional setting, aiming to gauge how much passersby would appreciate his talent and music. The story unveils how people value talents in different contexts. During that period, 1,097 people walked past him, and only a handful stopped to listen, with Bell collecting a mere $32 in tips. In the same week, Bell had performed at the Boston Symphony Hall, where ticket prices soared to hundreds of dollars each. The concert drew a large crowd of classical music enthusiasts and received extensive media coverage. The audience in the hall listened intently, showering him with enthusiastic applause and immense appreciation for his outstanding performance. This stark contrast between the reception in the subway and the symphony hall highlights a crucial idea: context and setting significantly influence how people value art. In the subway, people were engrossed in their daily routines, lacking the time or inclination to stop and listen, whereas in the symphony hall, they were ready and eager to enjoy the music. This social experiment demonstrates how people's responses to the same talent can vary based on the environment in which it is presented. It also underscores the notion that art and talents need the right context to be fully appreciated. The story sheds light on the impact of place and context on people's appreciation of talents, illustrating that individuals may not always recognize beauty and art in unexpected or non-traditional settings. In essence, the story imparts a valuable lesson about the importance of showcasing talent in the right place and in front of an appreciative audience. #Effective environment #Appreciation #Lessonlearned
