"The Network Studios Owners"

The Network Studios hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony at its headquarters in Culver City announcing it’s new ownership change. Not only did they roll out their new in-house podcast Socially Xceptable featuring Corrie Renee and SB Press, but they also hosted a reception to connect the community to the The Network Studios team. Guests were seen taking photos on the step and repeat, toasting to the occasion and engaging in organic banter while congratulating the owners for having one of the only black owned podcast studios in the greater Los Angeles area.   

The Network Studios is the #1 podcast studio in the greater Los Angeles area. Having produced over 12,000 episodes since its inception in 2012. In 2023, the business became 100 percent black owned under the ownership of Kenyon Ates (Tech Entrepreneur), Jalon Daniels (Kansas University Starting Football QB), Tyrone Dubose (IT Business Owner) and Les James (Real Estate Professional). Since acquiring the business, they have created a hub for black and brown content creators to bring their dreams to life. With the vision to redefine the brand identity of TNS by expanding the mission of the business, they have developed community partnerships. Through the creation and offering of a new media curriculum that is geared towards middle and senior high school students the current owners have built partnerships with the 501C3 Youth Guidance and their B.A.M initiative that is serving Los Angeles area students, LAUSD and Wilder’s preparatory academy in Inglewood.

I had the pleasure of interviewing Ates, Dubose, and Daniels to talk about their original content production, vision for the future of the business and what The Network Studios means to the community. Check it out below.

“I have been a guest on Sincere’s radio show many times over the years,” says Rhasun of Dominion Hill Records. “When the opportunity became available to co-executive produce the show, my first thought was ‘this is gonna be a lot of work.’ I already had a lot on my plate Sincere is a vet in this business both as a DJ and radio host – I knew his transition from radio to video podcast wouldn’t be a problem.

We ran into one setback with a communication issue with a previous studio as we were filming the demo run and had to relocate to the Wall Street location but it was meant to be. The setback landed us in a better location and with all the right people.”

Manifesting Success: PopoutJe’s Journey to Becoming a Hip Hop Star

Harnessing the Hustle: Lessons in Grynding from an Emerging Hip-Hop Artist

In an era where the rap industry evolves at an unmatched pace, young and determined artists continually emerge, eager to leave their imprint on the scene. One such artist, PopoutJe, candidly sits down with Shah Cypha on “On the Grynd Live,” providing an in-depth look into his journey, motivations, and aspirations as he carves out his path in the dynamic world of hip-hop.

Crafting a Personal Brand in Hip-Hop

Discussing his pseudonym, ‘PopoutJe,’ the artist highlights the pivotal role of a name in establishing an artist’s brand. It encapsulates identity, journey, and creative ethos. Prefacing ‘Je’ – derived from his real name Eric – with ‘Popout’ reflects his desire to stand out and resonate with his audience, “*Come pop out,*” he encapsulates, signifying an open invitation to see the world through his perspective.

Studying the significance of this branding through an SEO lens, ‘PopoutJe’ also becomes a piece of digital strategy, ensuring a unique imprint within search engines. The move speaks to a broader understanding of the necessity for singularity in the digital age, where SEO plays an increasingly critical role in an artist’s visibility and success.

The Unyielding Journey Towards Success: A Young Artist’s Perspective

When discussing the core of his work ethic, PopoutJe redefines the concept of grinding, “it’s doing what you got to do, no matter what,” mirroring the resilience seen in his family. This mentality, rooted in his upbringing, confronts the often glamorous portrayal of success with a grittier reality—it’s persistent hard work, imbued with tenacity and a sense of responsibility.

Where many may see ‘grind’ as a colloquial term loosely thrown around in the musical realm, for PopoutJe, it’s an ancestral legacy carried forward, a continuous, purposeful action that outlasts temporary setbacks and hardships. He draws a parallel to the struggles his parents endured for their family, cementing the grind as an ethos rather than a transient state.

Ambition and Strategy: The Balance for Future Artists

PopoutJe’s articulation of future ambitions frames his understanding of music as more than art—it’s a business venture with expansion potential. Aiming to transform his label into an umbrella for diverse media endeavors, he hopes to elevate the label’s reach. He also emphasizes learning and growing through networking and experiences like traveling and performing.

Balancing immediate and long-term goals is essential in the artist’s vision. He aims not just to create but also to build lasting structures that advance his career and support emerging talent—a move that reflects the industry’s shift from ephemeral trends to sustainable growth strategies.

With calculated goals like releasing a large-scale project by his 18th birthday, PopoutJe demonstrates a keen sense of strategic thinking required to maintain relevance and longevity in the ever-competitive rap game.

Throughout the interview with Shah Cypha, PopoutJe gives a grounded picture of what it means to hustle in today’s rap industry. His focus on unique branding, a well-defined work ethic, and a clear-eyed view of his future sets him apart as not just an artist, but as an emerging mogul who understands the business acumen required in modern music’s landscape.

By conveying his story with authenticity and ambition, PopoutJe invites his audience to join him on a journey that’s both personal and expansive. His narrative serves as a powerful reminder that the grind is more than a rite of passage; it’s the foundation upon which lasting empires in music are built.
