Making It From The 6IX

I hope you enjoyed our previous panel from A3C in ATL. Here is another exclusive from the Northern Power Summit, which is a one-day conference with a showcase component. Their primary objective is to provide education and tools, as well as access to individuals to help artists and industry professionals develop their careers internationally.This panel features Rich Kidd, Rookz, DJ Andre 905. Take a look at the description below if you want to learn more about them, they do also give a brief intro about themselves. I’m excited about this panel and the gems that were shared.Toronto is recognized as one of the biggest hotbeds of musical talent in the world, but that hasn’t always been the case. This panel will dive into a discussion about tackling the challenges artists have faced due to the lack of infrastructure in the Canadian Urban Music industry. It will provide suggestions and solutions for how an artist can (and reasons they should) build their career locally to effectively take it worldwide.As mentioned in the podcast, Northern Power Summit is coming up on Saturday August 17 2019 in Toronto.
