Gary Vaynerchuk
About this episode

LOVED having Drake Bell come by to dive deep into something I talk a lot about - the massive advantage independent music artists have when distributing their music. I think this was a really different & interesting meeting because Drake's mindset and experience in the industry gives him a super interesting perspective on the industry. We talk about his come up, how he got both himself and his music on the TV show Drake & Josh and advice for pushing his career further. Really cool talk here for anyone that has roots or interest in producing music. Hope you enjoy!
