In this episode, I was invited to be interviewed by a Music Business student, Jakobi Bonner, who saw me speak at Rollins College in Winter Park, FL. Jakobi interviewed me for his Master's thesis, where we speak about equity and diversity in the music business. What are the current issues that we need to address to be more inclusive as an industry, and what we can do to improve them? We talk about my experience in the business, how to succeed in the industry, and much more.    Get in touch with Jakobi Bonner at https://www.instagram.com/kobs.21/ Join the Academy: https://www.patreon.com/makingitacademy Who Am I?

My producer calls it Jazz. I have quite a few tics and have had Tourette Syndrome since I was 6 years old.
