Rob’s had a fascinating career, from working at major labels to managing artists, and now mentoring them through his platform. We dive into the changing landscape of the music industry, exploring how technology like AI, web3, and NFTs is reshaping how artists connect directly with their fans.

We discuss the resurgence of vinyl and the potential of music NFTs to foster deeper artist-fan relationships, contrasting these tangible formats with the limitations of digital music.
