3 takeaways you should remember ⬇️
VU Mentor, Artists Manager, and Executive Producer Henry Usukumah explains to artists how they can utilize pop culture moments and
viral trends such as the Barbie movie to promote their music and message on social media.
3 takeaways:
- Social media platforms provide a dynamic space for music artists to capitalize on current trends. By staying attuned to the latest pop culture phenomena, artists can strategically align their music
with trending topics, events, or viral challenges.
- It’s crucial to avoid merely jumping on viral challenges for the sake of trendiness. Instead, use the resonance of pop culture moments like the Barbie moment to craft your own unique conversations and content that still align with your artistic identity.
- Being in tune with pop culture and trends can help music artists deepen the connection with their
audience, grow their community, and reinforce their song’s relevance in the context of the broader cultural conversation.

Thirty Seven.
Last year was a journey.
I feel like I accomplished more than I could of imagined and yet, not enough. Purchased my first home, worked with incredibly talented individuals and I got to see the beginning of something special bloom.
I also learned to believe people when they show you who they are. You can have the best intentions and hopes for someone you really believe in and they can be the first to lie and betray you. Not everyone is worth the precious time and energy I have. I need to do a better job of protecting that.
In 2023, we don’t slow down, we go harder! I want to make sure I’m always the hardest worker in the room at any time.
My main goal this year is to prioritize sleep. By doing that I know have even more energy to accomplish my goals at home, at the gym, and with my work.
