We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Polow Mob Tv a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Polow , thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today Can you walk us through some of the key steps that allowed you move beyond an idea and actually launch?
Mob Tv Kinda Just Fell In My Lap To Be Honest. I Been Cool With Lots Of Artist Prior To Picking Up A Camera. My Old Buissness Partner Came With The Name Mob Tv He Brought The Idea To Me & I Reached Out To All My Industry Friends & They Was WIth It. Relationships Are Worth More Then Money I Always Say. My 9 To 5 Job Paid For Every Thing All The Trips The Equipment The Logos The GFX Every Thing. But Unfortunately Me & My Partner Parted Ways Due To Disagreements & Just Growing Apart We Couldn’t Get On The Same Page. I Knew Were I Wanted To Take Mob Tv. So I Branched Out & Started Polow’s Mob Tv. You Know I Take Credit For My Work I Was Doing That I Was Not Being Credited For. It Took Off & Now Its Easyer For Me To Tell You Who I Haven’t Shot. He Went On To Be A Great Promoter Wish Him Nothing But The Best. But For Me Every Thing Has Always Gone Smoothly For Me. I Don’t Run Into A Whole Lot Of Problems Cause So Many People Rock With Me. People Say I’m A Legend & A GOAT But I Dont See My Self Like That. I’m Blessed & Highly Favored & To God Be All The Glory.

Is there something you think non-creatives will struggle to understand about your journey as a creative?
Stay Consistent I Know It’s Hard Sometimes To Stay Motivated. But Progress Is Progress As Long A U Not Were U Started. Never Give Up On Your Dreams U Dont Wana Be Old One Day & Say I Wish I Put More Effort Into That With Regrets. I’m Not Where I Wana Be But I Have Came A Long Way. Ive Worked With More Artist Than Alot Of People Can Say With Bigger Platforms Then Me. I’ve Achieved So Much Its Crazy I’m Really Blessed.
Learning and unlearning are both critical parts of growth – can you share a story of a time when you had to unlearn a lesson?
Trusting People There Alot Of Evil People In This Industry. There Main Focus Is How Can I Get Over. But My Parents Dint Raise Me Like That. I’m Really A Good Dude But You Never Know Who Rock With You For You. Lots Of People Get Mad At Me When I Cut Them Off. But I Can’t Let People Use Me & Be Ok With That I Know My Self Worth & What I Bring To The Table. People Ussaly Cut Them Selfs Off With Me I’m Very Observent. But Trusting Is A Big Issue For Me So I Have To Make People Earn That Now. I Have To See Were There Mind & Heart At. Cause I Know I Have The Power To Change Your Life. I’m Just That Guy I Got The X-Factor & People Love Me They Know I’m Genuine.
