“From Mixtapes 2 Monetization: DJs and Creators Rocking the Economy" with Ashli Jones-Mejia (S2:206)
On this episode of POPLAW, I’m joined by powerhouse entertainment attorney and culture curator Ashli Jones-Mejia, who’s been behind the decks of some of the most iconic legal deals in the creator economy—from music contracts and DJ agreements to co-producing the legendary Club Quarantine Live.
We dive into the legal beats behind how creators turned quarantine into a cultural reset, remixing their content into thriving businesses. Ashli shares her journey from law school to repping D-Nice and building his brand BRANDnice, discusses the legal strategy behind transforming Club Quarantine from Instagram into live shows at the Kennedy Center, and breaks down what it takes to protect creators in the age of infinite scrolling.
But it’s not all glam and brand deals—we also explore the darker side of digital growth, including the impact of social media on mental health, and whether the law should be hitting the pause button on addictive platform behavior.
Legal gems, social commentary, and a few rapid-fire questions (yes, we debated Claire Huxtable vs. Judge Judy) — this episode is for the creators, the lawyers, and everyone spinning their own lane in the new digital economy.
