Lisa Cambridge-Mitchell: Part 2

Send us a text In Part 2 of our conversation with Lisa Cambridge-Mitchell, we follow her journey from LaFace Records—where she went from publicity to marketing and helped launch Usher’s My Way—through the politics of Arista, HBO’s digital experiment, and Jive Records. She shares raw stories of industry clashes, the reality of being paid not to work during her most lucrative years, and the constant challenges of being a Black woman executive in a business built on loyalty and power plays. Along the way, Lisa gives us a front-row seat to artist development at its highest stakes, from guiding a teenage Chris Brown to shaping how international audiences experienced some of the biggest names in R&B. Lisa also opens up about her transition into coaching and why mentorship alone won’t sustain the next generation of creatives. For her, true patronage—the intentional act of surrounding emerging talent with the support they need to succeed—is what built her own career and what’s missing in today’s music and media landscape. It’s a conversation that mixes career highs and industry politics with timeless lessons on leadership, resilience, and the future of creative communities. This is Mixed and Mastered with Lisa Cambridge-Mitchell. Support the show Mixed and Mastered is produced and distributed by Merrick Studio, and hosted by music industry veteran, Jeffrey Sledge.

Datwon Thomas: Part 1

Send us a text From Brooklyn to Tokyo and back again, Datwon Thomas’ story is as global as it is deeply rooted in hip-hop. In Part 1, he shares how growing up during the crack era, moving to Japan in the mid-’80s, and facing both culture shock and racism shaped his worldview long before he became an architect of music media. Datwon walks us through his early hustle—interning at VIBE, boldly cold-calling XXL’s Reginald Dennis, and turning deep knowledge of the culture into paid opportunities that launched his career. Along the way, he reflects on the golden era of hip-hop, the mentors who opened doors, and the relationships that would carry him through XXL, King, and eventually to producing some of the biggest stages in entertainment.

Caron Veazey

Send us a text This week, Jeffrey sits down with the incomparable Caron Veazey — a music industry force whose career has spanned MCA, Epic, RCA, Island Def Jam, global marketing at Sony, and nearly a decade managing Pharrell Williams.

Bomani Jones: Playoffs, Prince, and Perspective

This week on Unglossy, Bomani Jones joins the fellas and turns a conversation about the NBA Playoffs and NFL Draft into a deeper look at the business of sports—streaming chaos, rising costs, and why access isn’t what it used to be. From there, it goes where it wants: travel, chasing awe around the world, and why a waterfall might hit harder than front-row seats. Plus a no-holds debate on Prince vs. Michael Jackson, influence vs. popularity, and what really shapes culture. Along the way: sneaker resale, concert prices, and an Emmy that may or may not be a “participation trophy.” Smart, funny, and unpredictable—just like Bomani. Unglossy is hosted by Bun B, Jeffrey Sledge and Tom Frank and is produced and distributed by Merrick Studios. Check out this and all our episodes at wearemerrickstudios.com/unglossy-pod

Datwon Thomas: Part 2

Send us a text In Part 2 of our conversation with Datwon Thomas, we trace his path from creating King Magazine to producing some of the biggest shows on television.

He also reflects on surviving open-heart surgery in 2022, reminding us that no career milestone matters without your health.
