Alright, Daquan thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. The first dollar you earn is always exciting – it’s like the start of a new chapter and so we’d love to hear about the first time you sold or generated revenue from your creative work?

I remember i was maybe like 13. i sold this dude a beat from like alaska for $20. He mailed me a $20 bill. My mother cursed me out so bad lol but thay day on i knew like i can make money from music is crazy.

Daquan, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

Hey, My Name Bake I Am A DJ & Mulit platinum producer. I Started djing like 8th grade but i didnt start taking it serious till maybe 16. thats when i started to make actually money from it snd building my name. i always had a talent for computers and music though. i used to burn cds and make ring tones in elementary school. I use to record songs in middle school also. I Always was that go to person. I think im very different from other djs and producer cause my style and swagg i put into me and my talents. Everybody can dj snd play a song but can they play it like me? Im must proud of the fan base i built for myself . im a household name in Nj!

Is there mission driving your creative journey?

Yes , I Want to get rich off doing something i love. Like to wake up and just do something i want to do and get paid ? Hell Yeah
