We recently connected with Callbackboard and have shared our conversation below.

Callbackboard, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Risking taking is a huge part of most people’s story but too often society overlooks those risks and only focuses on where you are today. Can you talk to us about a risk you’ve taken – it could be a big risk or a small one – but walk us through the backstory.

I think the biggest risk I’ve took that changed my life was betting on myself and pivoting from being a musician to a talent manager. I started my company “The Glass Experience” 5 years ago as a production company after finalizing my decision to take a leap of faith and get into the service providing industry within entertainment. Through all of my business adventures in that field of work expanded some vital personal attributes which then led me into managing/advising a diverse atmosphere creative talent such as: song writers, musicians, mural painters, videographers, DJ’s, producers, & other podcast network entities. My most life changing risk I took was assisting my older brother “Motizzy” with the re-branding of himself. Imagine us being 8 years apart which makes me his little brother, but not knowing each other from a can of paint when we crossed paths in life. Which was almost not even 10 years ago and with him entrusting my psychopathic yet innovative process on how we were going to revitalize and reintroduce him as an independent brand. I don’t even think I would have the fortunancy of even being able to discuss this with you guys.

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

So the name of my company is The Glass Experience LLC. I establish my company in November 2020. Was started off as an innovative idea for transitioning into video production over a five year span. I grew my company into a talent management agency company. I service all creative minds from social media content creators, mural, painters, rappers, singers, songwriters producers, DJs, an executive podcast producers. Along my journey of creating my company I then was proposed and offer to manage my first musician who is Homealone D-Rock. I met D-Rock fuel mutual acquaintance of ours who is more so like a brother than me and over a course of two years we had kept in touch about me advising D-Rock more so than managing at first. Once me and D-Rock had joined forces and decided to collaborate it, then grew a brotherhood of relationship which turned into me managing him. And just the six month span of time of advising/managing D-Rock. We then bumped into our first label offer from the hip-hop lab records. Who is owned by Lando Bando, which is BabyTron’s manager. Can’t tell you how a six month run of just trying to figure out what was best for somebody else. Other than myself. It turned into something that was very dream worthy and lucrative in the long run. So without Motizzy none of this is even imaginably possible without him believing in me & trusting me first.

Learning and unlearning are both critical parts of growth – can you share a story of a time when you had to unlearn a lesson?

I had to unlearn that everyone in life has a vision of how they want to win including the personnel they want around them when that happens. So don’t be afraid to embrace strangers in your journey. Taking this new lesson and applying to my life at the current moment has taken me all across the coast with strangers that have turned into family. And with those new bonds brought new blessings & opportunities.

Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?

Along my journey of meeting Homealone Drock & us being signed to The Hip Hop Lab, a few months after the celebrating was finished I lost my oldest daughter at 8 months and that took a toll on my entire mission & team. After taking a few months off from management I had to find some sort of light to get me back going, because I don’t like giving my word & not delivering on it. Seeing that at that time I had a full team of individuals depending on my leadership to help get our next tasks accomplished. Although, encountering and dealing with a child death can completely put an individual out of commission for life. I had to learn that I have a lifetime to recuperate and process the vacancy in my heart without having my daughter with me on this journey.
