E23: Amaechi Uzoigwe - Co-Manager of Run the Jewels, Co-Founder of Studio A, Investor & Advocate
Episode description
Amaechi Uzoigwe's resume / CV speaks for itself as Co-Manager of Run the Jewels, Co-Founder of Studio A, an investor, advocate, and more. But to host Emily White, he is pure inspiration as a human being.
This is a candid conversation on Amaechi's career and rise to becoming one of the top managers and most respected minds in the industry. However his journey has been far from a straight and narrow path. Settle in to learn how getting out there to do the work, and always doing right by artists, can lead to organic professional relationships that last a career and a lifetime. Similarly, Amaechi is a true modern manager in the sense that his work in film, branding, and activating around causes important to Africa & Africans throughout the Diaspora takes his work and artists to the next level and beyond.
As we begin to wrap up the series of this podcast based on Emily's book of the same name, she felt it was crucial to speak with Amaechi and share his story with you. We hope you enjoy it and happy listening!
