Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Damon Sharpe. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Hi Damon, thanks for joining us today. What sort of legacy are you hoping to build. What do you think people will say about you after you are gone, what do you hope to be remembered for?
I am hoping to leave a legacy of inspiration through the music I have created not only as an artist, but through my label Brainjack Music.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
I’ve been through many iterations of my career. I started as a singer, dancer and actor. Achieving early success in my teenage years and having it all taken away just as quickly as it happened. I never allowed the dark voices to get into my head. I allowed that early success that was taken away to be a driver and fuel my work ethic. I was very fortunate to be handed a second chapter of my career as a producer songwriter, and I have not looked back since.
Have you ever had to pivot?
There was a period of time where I was still very busy as a producer and songwriter but was starting to feel a bit stagnant being tied strictly to the recording studio. At that point in time, I not only sparked my career as a DJ and recording artist, but also launched my record label Brainjack music.
How did you build your audience on social media?
I was very cynical about social media and finally had a moment of epiphany where I had to embrace it. I hired my current content shooter Trenton Negrete who had been shooting content since he was 10 years old. He is only 20 years old now and really has his finger on the pulse. We work together to create fun content that will work not only from my brand as Damon Sharpe but also for the label Brainjack music. Consistency is key!
