What’s Happening Now? New York Mag Ahmed, Tell us about the representation of POWER IS INDUSTRY? Every successful artist or group was unsigned at some point in their career and struggle to get into the music industry.
AHMED RODRIGUEZ
POWER IS INDUSTRY main focus is to bring together today's most talented artist from all over the world and connect them with real individuals that are creditable, current and most of all relevant in the music industry. The overall goal is to give unsigned artist opportunities as well as create a teachable moment for their music careers, while increasing their knowledge about the music business. You are known in this music industry for being a champion for the unsigned artist. You conduct private listening session, hosts release parties, and even have provided the longest running unsigned artist showcase in New York City, hosted by you and POWER 105.1FM DJ REYMO featuring the likes of representatives from Republic Records, Empire Music, Atlantic Records, Bad Boy, Cash Money, and even Multiplatinum producers. It’s also my understanding you are even doing celebrity interviews with POWER 105.1FM DJ REYMO. Tell us some of the things that you are involved with and also what makes your showcase different from other showcase out there? First and foremost, I want to acknowledge Maria Davis who is the Pioneer of the Open Mic world.
