This company became creative during the pandemic, figuring out new ways to generate revenue to keep their doors open, and have the ability to pay their employees, all the while, expanding their footprint is not only in the music industry but also in the corporate world with their services.

There are still very vibrant fields of music out there that are thriving, including hip hop and R&B music.
