Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to TR3VON. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
TR3VON, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. Have you signed with an agent or manager? Why or why not?
I am a part of Self-Exposure Management. My manager Guy Richardson and I have been working together for some years now. I met Guy in New York City after a performance one night and he was interested in my talents and wanted to help prepare me for a better career set up. Since working with Guy he’s introduced me to some great influential people that I had the pleasure of building relationships with and gaining some major opportunities. I believe Self-Exposure Management wanted to work with me because they believed in my talents and wanted to see me become more successful and it didn’t hurt that I had something to offer. These days we have been working together on a fresh new rebranding of my artistry.
TR3VON, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

Alright – so here’s a fun one. What do you think about NFTs?
I believe NFTs are the new wave of the future. I personally have been researching more about the NFT market and it’s something I am diving further into. My team and I have been figuring out new ways to build wealth and NFT is a sure thing that’s staying around for awhile. I am in the process of creating a few NFTs for my brand.
How about pivoting – can you share the story of a time you’ve had to pivot?
There was a point in my life where I was working with an entertainment company that eventually left me broke and homeless. This situation lasted for about 2 years and took me on a rollercoaster of emotions. After departing from that entertainment company I went into a dark spiral. I was battling depression, anxiety, doubt, and fear which took over my mind and it almost caused me to have a mental breakdown. During this time I took a 3 year hiatus which included the pandemic. I’ve been away from the scene for awhile but I am excited to say there’s new music coming and there’s a new sound coming from my soul. I am ready to pull others from their darkness. I am on a new mission to help change. I thank God for pulling me out of that dark pit. I am ready to show my supporters and the world that you can overcome it all.
