So in my career, I'm 2 years in working in Fed Audit at a Big 4 Accounting firm. I'm about to get promoted to senior in a couple of months and I am really interested in working for a music label, either working behind artists getting their finances in order or working with labels to create record deals with aspiring artists. Does anyone have insight about this? Good looks

I've been running a hip hop label since 2002. With minor profits - not enough to sustain a living. So I work in law on the side.

You sound like you have a great career. Props!

I would try to get to a major record label.
Which is hard for artists and anyone to crack into.

Most internet rappers do not have their business in order to see livable profits.

Hard, unrelenting work, opportunity and luck.

Don't mess up the great thing you have for something risky. Bless!
