Bobby O Interviewed On Inspirational Creatives

I want to thank Rob Lawrence for having me on his Inspirational Creatives webcast.

He asked a lot of thoughtful and insightful questions regarding the creative process that I'm not often asked.

He also got me thinking and talking about a lot of people that have helped me in the past, that I can probably never thank enough.

Check it out if you get a chance.

My "Future Of The Music Business" Interview

Here's an interview that I did with my friend Slawek Blich regarding the future of the music business.

The interview was originally for a Polish publication, but was also published in Forbes International, then AudioPro International.

Making A Living In Music Is The Same Everywhere

We have one of the most sophisticated networks for making money from all aspects from music in the United States, but when it comes down to it, it's not that different from some of the less developed entertainment areas of the world.

Take Nigeria, for instance. The music business is primitive in so many ways, but when you dig deep into it, it's exactly the same as the US if you're a DIY artist and not a huge corporation. Here's an interesting video interview of Rapper LD on SmartMonkey TV that illustrates the point. LD is smart and hip, and has been at it long enough that he knows just what to do in Nigeria. My guess is that he'd make it in the States in a minute.
