What’s it like to grow up with Jay-Z as your uncle… and then build your own legacy in the music industry?
In this episode of Don’t Quote Me, we sit down with Rel Carter - Roc Nation’s Director of Artist Partnerships (and JAY-Z’s nephew) for an unfiltered conversation about the state of A&Rs, navigating the industry without relying on family ties, Roc Nation’s roster, and hip-hop culture at large.
