Art slave.
So I am a Talent Representative at Kaki Entertainment. I manage actors, designers, singers, models, directors, producers, directors, etc. You can check out my company profile to learn more about what I do, but I only add people there that I have worked with or are currently working with. Feel free to add me here though. I do not turn anyone away.
I'm an artist too (although not professionally anymore), so I am very pro artist.The bottom line is all artists need management!
Now, a word about music.
Once you've obtained a record deal, you will certainly need a manager, so holla at ya boi! My company will assist your record label in their efforts to distribute and promote your music.
A lot of people seem to think they are ready for a manager, but very few truly are. Are you ready to have a music manager? Do you practice until you are sick ( I mean, if you play the keyboard, the keys should be blood stained)? Been booking a bunch of shows? Have you sold a few thousand CD's? These are the sort of qualifying points I look for when making a decision on whether or not to enter into a contractual agreement with an artist. I give 200%. I will have no less from you, so keep this in mind when approaching me about music management.
A Music Managers role is very sophisticated these days so it would not be a bad idea to make sure that they have taken a course in Music Management, especially if you are using one of your friends, family member, or anything outside of an experienced professional manager. Music Managers have a lot of responsibility including development, getting a booking agent for tours, developing a great promotional package, creating the artists image including wardrobe & stage presence, getting the artist a web site, songs, producers, studio time, publishing, publicity, etc.
Many music managers can and will sometimes act as an investor if he/she really believes in you. So will I… If your package is not up to par I will do the things necessary to bring your package to a certain level of professionalism. This includes, but of course is not limited to photography, recording, mastering & biography. Kaki Entertainment also handles anything administrative and financial including publishing deals, royalties, recording, public relations, publicity and promotion. A real manager does not just have connections, but knows the intricacies of the business.
Put me in coach!
