    Lizzo shares stories about her struggles and sleeping in her car she named “Harvey Dent”

    Singer-rapper Melissa Jefferson aka Lizzo was born in Detroit, grew up in Houston (where she got her moniker) and eventually moved to Minneapolis and collaborated with Prince.There, she rapped with a few hip-hop groups but was equally drawn toward the indie-rock world. If you have heard my interview with her, you can tell how far she has come as an artist and popularity. 2019 is her breakout year with the #1 single, Truth Hurts on billboard for weeks. I think you’ll appreciate this interview, especially if you don’t know her come-up story.

    Ruben Young talks Dreamstate, trusting yourself and how to remove yourself from your art

    The Come Up Show podcast is back with a brand new interview!  Our special guest goes by the name of Ruben Young, originally from Calgary, Alberta, and now resides in Toronto. Since Ruben's debut in 2017, he has released six singles and earned millions of streams, independently, on his own label, Young and Lucky. BOSS! *Rick Ross voice*. Ruben's crossover sound has given him the opportunity to share the stage with a diverse resume of artists from The Chainsmokers, Akon, Classified, Langston Francis and the Phony Ppl.  Ruben's debut EP Dreamstate is an introduction to his world, and the time he spent travelling across North America writing and collaborating with other artists/producers. His writing experience includes sessions with T-Minus (Drake, Justin Bieber), Chin Injeti (Eminem, P!NK), Kuya Productions (Alessia Cara, JRDN), Classified, Slakah The Beatchild, and the list goes on.  "This EP is a step into the world of the blurry middle ground that stands between our dreams and the realities we crave." Ruben Young. Ruben has become best known for his single "Rachel Green" (over one million streams), an ode to 90's dream girl played by Jennifer Aniston on 'FRIENDS,' which featured American rapper Hodgy Beats from Odd Future.  I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation, and I think you will too. We talked about the importance of travel and how time alone in different environments changes you. How in order to trust someone (in the context of your creative career) you have to trust yourself first. We talk about oversaturation in media and the distractions that can take us away from music listening experience and so much more.  Subscribe to The Come Up Show Podcast on your favourite platform: bit.ly/2k57m7r Show us love and leave us a review: bit.ly/tcuspodcastreview Follow us on Instagram & Twitter Join our newsletter: bit.ly/tcusnewsletter Check out the new book "Stop Playing By Their Rules: An Artist Guide On How To Market To Fans" bit.ly/2kgGzEV Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/thecomeupshow.

  4. You are going to have to serve two masters when you have a hit

    You are going to have to serve two masters when you have a hit

    I'd like want to thank D.O. aka Duane Gibson and his team for another successful Northern Power Summit. From the educational panels and networking opportunities, there was a lot of informational gems, jewels, MAJOR KEYS (DJ Khaled voice). I moderated the Next Level panel featuring speakers Chris “Deep” Henderson and David “Click” Cox.  Seemingly since the beginning of time, the hit single has been elusive, yet a huge source of pride for artists. As the industry has moved from radio spins to YouTube views to Instagram “likes”, what makes a hit these days? This panel will discuss how to determine success and how artists can find it in today’s music economy. Panellists biography  Christopher “Deep” Henderson is a multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning songwriter and music producer whose hits include Jamie Foxx & T-Pain’s “Blame It” along with a host of others from artists like 50cent with G-Unit, Trey Songz, Mario, Dru Hill, Jacob Latimore and others. In a career now spanning over 18 years, this 3 time ASCAP Award recipient was listed among Billboard Magazine’s Top 5 Hot Hip-hop/R&B Producers of Year in both the 2000 and the 2010 year-end issues. Currently, Christopher has founded and is developing a multimedia platform he calls SongBuildersTV. It is designed to connect and empower the creative community, providing professional insights and front row seat views to the process as songs are built from the inspiration phase to the rough mix. He also takes the show on the road as he hosts song building master classes at various music conferences around the world and through partnerships with various non-profit and community serving charities. Henderson continues to work on both established and developing upcoming music projects. David “Click” Cox started his career as a member of the MMVA winning and JUNO nominated group, The Maximum Definitive. Created reputation for his promotional and marketing efforts working closely with concert promotions company REMG. Soon after, he started his career working with BMG Music Canada and then worked at Universal Music Canada as A&R. During his time with Universal, David founded the Stylus Awards to celebrate the Canadian urban music talents and recognition of DJs. After 8 years with Universal, David created his own entertainment company, CLK Creative Works. Today, CLK is responsible for managing an eclectic roster of highly skilled and experienced artists including Ruben Young, SATE, King Reign, and DJ Agile. Along with management, David teaches music business at Metalworks and The Remix Project.

    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. Get your tickets at Eventbrite http://bit.ly/3281PjK and you can also visit the website at http://bit.ly/324IH6l More details will be coming about their programming.

Rich Kidd is one of the most recognized and respected creatives in Canada’s urban music industry today. He is a Juno award winner with Naturally Born Strangers and as a record producer he has crafted music for hip-hop superstars Drake, k-os, and Busta Rhymes and so many more.  Rookz is the Founder & Director at Sandbox Studios, one of the most successful Recording Facilities in Toronto. With sessions with Cardi B, Tory Lanez, and most of the city’s up and coming, Sandbox has become a staple in the scene and more importantly a hub for learning and connecting. Former music manager and now an award winning serial entrepreneur, Rookz is a public speaker, consultant and innovator, sitting on panels from Toronto to New York.

  8. Haviah Mighty: I am the underdog experience

    Haviah Mighty: I am the underdog experience

    She was named in the top 15 Toronto Rappers you should know in 2019. I met Haviah mighty several years ago in London while she attended Fanshawe College. I still remember her guest appearance on our radio show in 2012, there was a caller who was listening to her performance and sat in his car parked in his driveway for a half an hour because he was blown away.  Haviah Mighty was raised in a musical household in Brampton, Ontario, Mighty started singing at the age of 4, rapping at 11, and producing at 15. She is well-known for being one of the three MCs who make up The Sorority. In 2018, Mighty’s track “Vámonos” appeared on HBO’s hit series, Insecure.  If you haven’t seen Haviah live show, she opened up for Maestro Fresh Wes in London for the Juno’s, and Maestro legitimately said he was nervous that she made him step his game up. It was a pleasure catching up with Haviah Mighty to talk about her career, the importance of having the time to find out who she is an artist.  Subscribe to The Come Up Show Podcast on your favourite platform: bit.ly/2k57m7r Show us love and leave us a review: bit.ly/tcuspodcastreview Follow us on Instagram & Twitter Join our newsletter: bit.ly/tcusnewsletter Check out the book I wrote "Stop Playing By Their Rules: An Artist Guide On How To Market To Fans" bit.ly/2kgGzEV Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/thecomeupshow.
