This week, we're honoured to welcome DJ Lazy Rich as our guest. Join us as Lazy Rich shares his remarkable journey, spanning from his groundbreaking days as an electro-house DJ and Producer to his pivotal decision to transition away from music and embark on new endeavours as the CTO of Create Music Group and the visionary founder of Label Engine.
Transporting us back to his university years, Lazy Rich reminisces about the days of lugging records and decks to gigs, laying the groundwork for his future triumphs. With tales of both exhilarating highs, such as achieving Beatport #1s, and challenges encountered during his global tours.
