We’re back from hiatus! After producing 18 #iVoted Concerts in 2024 to statistically increase voter turnout, Host Emily White has returned with a slew of special guest episodes of incredible music industry leaders and visionaries for you to learn from. To kick things off, Emily chats with Markeisha Darden. Markeisha manages Tee Grizzley, who is one of the top trending artists in Johns Hopkins University’s data on artists that can increase voter turnout the most. Emily saw that data come to life with incredible shows and wildly passionate fans . Markeisha also manages Jayla Darden, as well as Tay B who just scored his first gold record, in addition to co-managing the iconic Andra Day and so much more. This episode tracks Markeisha’s deeply impressive journey from day one and has a ton of knowledge to share with us all. Happy viewing and listening!

Are you a songwriter, music publisher, or administrator? If so, you need to know about the Mechanical Licensing Collective, or The MLC. They’re a nonprofit organization that’s revolutionizing how songwriters get paid their mechanical streaming royalties from platforms like Spotify and Apple Music in the U.S. Every month, The MLC collects the streaming data and royalties from those platforms, matches the money to the songwriter who has earned it, and then pays out the royalties due. With over $2.5 billion in royalties distributed and more than 50,000 Members worldwide, The MLC is already making a huge impact. And the best part? Membership is completely free!
