14. Denarious Britt
You know how the music industry seems as though
anyone can get signed by a major label now?
Release music with no creative direction, sound the
same as everyone else and be deemed a star. Well, what I
do is help these artists develop their personal brands, express themselves artistically
in any way that please, and establish organic connections with their fans. As an
artist manager and creative director, I help artists see what they could become if the
trust themselves and fully allow themselves to be creative. In fact, I have acted as a
key consultant on 3 artist mixtapes of favor, providing direction for cover art and
assisting in developing a rollout plan.
