I recently came across this photo from when I went to Nashville for @transcendmusicretreat in 2018. This day changed my life forever from having a chance to meet @theeginamiller to becoming an industry Unc to @mykegrizzlyofficial @rjaygreenofficial @omegageorge and @darnellenolin and I met so many great artists like @wendihwyatt and @bamitchellswap. This event allowed my dream of being signed to @indieblumusic for distribution to become a reality and it also taught me the importance of investing in yourself to be in the right rooms.

Great music can create momentum, but momentum without a foundation has nowhere to go.

Five for Five taught me that strong music and successful events are not enough. Your audience, systems, timing and infrastructure must be ready to support the opportunity.

Whether you are returning to church, looking for a fresh start, or searching for a place to belong, there is a seat waiting for you. Come worship with us, grow with us, and find your place at Greater Christ Temple Church—the church where everybody is somebody and nobody is a stranger. It will be good to see you in church.

Stop choosing producers just because you like their other work.

Before you spend your money, ask:

1. Do you understand my sound?
2. Can you develop my sound and the song?
3. Can you communicate honestly?
4. Do you handle business correctly and professionally?

The right producer should do more than make the track. They should understand your vision, strengthen the record, tell you the truth and handle deadlines, files, splits and money professionally.

Talent matters, but alignment matters more.

This is such a big deal. We're literally still sitting back reminiscing on Stellars Week in awe like did this really happen?! God really did His big one when He planted this seed in us, and this is only the beginning. Our Open Haus Artist Press Day was a success, AGAIN. We built this event so artists and media wouldn't have to fight for a seat at the table, and the event did just that all while cultivating a strong, safe community and network. We had TV, radio, podcasters, and online media outlets all in one HAUS. Happy Birthday to our lil baby, Open Haus! Your Mom and Dad @darnellenolin love watching you grow 🎈🎉

Thanks again to EVERY SINGLE PERSON who participated both artist and media, to our team, 🗣WE LOVE YOU, and our SPECTACULAR Haus Carpet host @mikeaaronj, whew grateful is an understatement 🙏🏾

A little glimpse of what happened when BRESHAHNA @breshahna_jeter pulled up to Room Three! 🎤✨

During @thecre8tivehaus OPEN HAUS: Artist Press Day for Stellar Awards Weekend, BRESHAHNA sat down with SNUBB3D Magazine @snubb3dmagazine, and we had an AMAZING time! From her journey as a recording artist to the inspiration behind her music, the creative process, and what happens when she steps into that space to create, we got into a little bit of everything. The vibes were REAL and the conversation was even better! 🔥

This is only a glimpse! 👀 Watch the FULL VIDEO now on the SNUBB3D YouTube channel.
