After years of entertaining the idea of starting an interview based Hip-Hop podcast, but realizing how the saturated the genre was becoming, independent journalist Akil Pinnock decided to pivot. This spawned the Words Matter Pod w/ Akil Pinnock, a podcast dedicated to storytellers. Using his love for long-form interviewing, derived from listening to hours of interview Hip-Hop podcasts like Juan Epstein, Combat Jack, and Rap Radar. Akil Pinnock decided that he would take what he learned from those platforms, and apply it interviewing storytellers of varying fields and not just Hip-Hop.

Ep. 33 | Disrupting the Music Business w/ Senior Director of A&R/Publishing at Create Music Group, Carl LeGrett

Carl LeGrett is Senior Director of A&R/Publishing at Create Music Group, an independent data-driven media and technology company, that focuses on transparency with its creators. Aside from his work of finding talent, LeGrett has uncovered millions of dollars in unclaimed royalties for Create's artists, a practice not often synonymous with traditional record label structure. Last week, I sat down with LeGrett at Create's offices in Hollywood, where we spoke about him falling in love with Hip-Hop production from watching Hoopmixtape basketball highlights, the "Type Beat" production world, the importance of finding artists unclaimed royalties as well so much more important music business jewels.
