Sometime ago Turbulence, who broke out on the reggae scene in the early 2000’s, got together with British / Canadian producer Demolition Man to lay vocals for a track with then emerging hip-hop artist Tha Vor. Both Turbulenceand Tha Vor were under the impression that the song, titled Hip-Hop Ambassadors Questlove & DMC Will Be At This Year’s DIY Musician Conference In Austin (@cdbaby)
Join hip-hop ambassadors Questlove and DMC, alongside the CD Baby team and dozens of other industry experts this August 16th through the 18th in Austin, Texas. Both of these Hip-Hop ambassadors will be at the event to share their wisdom, meet the DIY artist community, and deliver inspiring keynotes!
Questlove (drummer and band leader of The Roots) will explore the tools and technology that can support a musician’s creativity and business goals. While Darryl McDaniels (aka DMC from pioneering hip-hop group Run-D.M.C.) will reveal some things you rarely see beneath celebrity success. He’ll talk about his struggles, triumphs and how he reconnected with the power and meaning of his own musical life.
