About

After years as a successful record company executive I wanted more…

singer and guitar playerAfter years as a successful record company executive I wanted more. I wanted to make an even bigger impact in the arts, I wanted a family, I wanted more creative collaborations, I wanted more involvement in the community. Social good was on my mind. I wanted change.

I was already well known as a branding expert creating marketing plans for Mary J Blige, Kris Kross, Ziggy Marley, Supercat, En Vogue, Gerald Levert, The Fugees, Busta Rhymes. During my tenures at Sony and Elektra, I cut my teeth with projects from Sade, Michael Jackson and Alexander O’Neal.  I knew my shit. But I wanted more.

So I began creating collaborative and innovative programs that combined my love for marketing and branding with my desire to do social good and bring about change. I wanted to create ongoing experiences that would have an impact and build relationships that would last.

I wanted to be able to work with and manage artists and brands and design creative programs and collaborations that would allow both to shine.

The Music Business is Not What It Use To Be and This is a Good Thing
October 6, 2015  /  By Karen Marie Mason in Music Business

This is by far the greatest time to be an artist, a musician, a composer, a producer or any of the support services that an artist needs to thrive (PR, Marketing, Social Media Manager) in this business of music. The major record business went from a 30 billion dollar business to a 15 billion dollar business in less than 10 years and they haven’t recovered yet. Once platinum artists are now considered marginally successful if they sell a mere 50k to100k and the uncertainty in the future has many people worried. However you should see it as an opportunity.
