As he takes his Artium label independent, the veteran producer-turned-exec is emphasizing a different way of doing business: education instead of exploitation, collaboration instead of competition

But No I.D. is equally interested in nurturing like-minded executives — a valuable break for anyone, but an especially rare opportunity for black men and women in the music industry, who are underrepresented in positions of power relative to their white counterparts.

He has popped up in discussions on the social media app Clubhouse, which is popular in the music industry, and appeared on Blackmon’s lively panel, part of a series called the WEBINA&R Sessions.
