Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Dameon “Bagg$$” Broussard. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Dameon “Bagg$$”, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today Coming up with the idea is so exciting, but then comes the hard part – executing. Too often the media ignores the execution part and goes from idea to success, skipping over the nitty, gritty details of executing in the early days. We think that’s a disservice both to the entrepreneurs who built something amazing as well as the public who isn’t getting a realistic picture of what it takes to succeed. So, we’d really appreciate if you could open up about your execution story – how did you go from idea to execution?
Early 2020 I bought the basic equipment needed to record music (laptop, interface and microphone). Got my DBA (08/18/2020) for my brand “Bagglyfe Mafia”. Getting started I was clueless on the business aspect of the business. Put a mixtape together and put it out. No marketing/promo team. Tried to build a team but it didn’t work out due to everybody wanting to be the star instead of everyone on the team having the same vision and goals. So I stopped looking for artists and etc. I took on all the work myself. Taught myself how to record myself, how to design Merch, promote my music and merchandise and etc. 2021 is the year my buzz started to build with my mixtape “ELEVATED”. I carried the momentum into 2022 the year I became a 1-Man army releasing 7 singles and 3 mixtapes AVAILABLE ON ALL PLATFORMS the lastest mixtape being “BEAT THE ODDS” by BAGG$$. Improving every project doubling streams from 2021 to 2022. The sky’s the limit in 2023 for Bagg$$ and his brand Bagglyfe Mafia.
Dameon “Bagg$$”, 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?

How did you build your audience on social media?
I built my social media presence by being myself telling jokes posting funny memes. Started to post my music and got some good feedback. Posted my merchandise and shortly after started to have sales. Getting love and support is part of what keeps me going. It’s my way of returning the love to those who support me. I also post my kids a lot I’m definitely an active father to me 3 kids Bryson, Brayden and Arielle. Also do everything for my Grannny and my brother (Rest In Peace)
Learning and unlearning are both critical parts of growth – can you share a story of a time when you had to unlearn a lesson?
A lesson I’ve learned is you can’t expect others to have the same loyalty as you. Everybody i attempted to put into position to build and win with me as a team. They all eventually changed on me because of jealousy.
