What You Need To Know About The Music Business
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Well if you’ve read this far it must mean you’re curious.
Next step? Perhaps attending the Connective Panel Series’ first regional panel this Sunday at 4 p.m. Eddie’s Attic
“What You Need To Know To Succeed In The Music Business” panelists will include such industry powers as Butch Lowery of Lowery Music Publishing; Tremayne Anchrum, director of creative affairs for Rhythm & Soul/ ASCAP; Bruce Burch, a songwriter for Reba McEntire, Faith Hill, Aaron Tippin and others as well as head of the UGA Music Business program and Jennie Walker, founder of Connective Panel Series, president emeritus of the Georgia Music Industry Association and the moderator of this event.
This 90-minute panel is to benefit the GMIA, as well as (of course) educate artists about the music industry. It’s $20 -$15 for ASCAP members and GMIA, UGA and GSU music business students. Registration is from 3 to 4 p.m. . (And afterwards, there’s a tribute to John Jarrard featuring Clay Cook, Jan Smith (above), Larry Jon Wilson and Pat Terry).
Interested in attending? Are you an emerging artist in the Atlanta Music Scene - and if so, what sources have you found to be helpful?

Rate T.I.’s First (Official) Single
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
No you didn’t misread the headline.
Yes, Atlanta rapper-actor T.I. did release a single back in April titled “No Matter What”. But that was what the label called a “street” single, to generate buzz for his upcoming CD “Paper Trail.”
“Whatever You Like” is what Grand Hustle/Atlantic is touting as the first OFFICIAL single from the Sept. 9 release.
Hear the original version HERE and/or the “clean” version HERE, then tell us, is it what you want to hear from T.I.? On par with other other lead-off singles from his albums, such as “Big Things Poppin’ (Do It)” and the Grammy winner “What You Know”? Better than “No Matter What?”
(The video for which is BELOW)
