Just as much as I love music, I love understanding the genius behind the creativity.
Billboard has highlighted profiles of some key players in the industry in their upcoming Mavericks issue.
One of their features is Cortez Bryant – manager for artists including Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj.
In the profile he identifies his most recent achievement:
“During the Drake Vs. Lil Wayne Tour, we implemented a digital app component where fans actually got the chance to interact with the tour. I can’t take all the credit; it’s shared with Wayne and Drake. But it was definitely a groundbreaking move.”
On his major challenge:
“The shift as to how consumers are getting music. We’re trying to stay ahead of the curve, honing and building relationships to make sure we’re in tune with the tech world because that’s where music is going. We have to make sure we’re innovative in that sector.”
On is most important lesson:
“Failure has taught me to appreciate the things I do have. When I’ve been at rock bottom, I’ve been in a more thankful space because I know it could have been way worse. It gave me a bigger perspective on appreciating the little things. And understanding that I can get back up.”
