Mitchell, Grammy-nominees and winners John Legend, Major., Ledisi, Melanie Fiona, Ivan Barias and KOSINE, singer/songwriter D Smoke, industry executives like LRVN’s Tunde Balogun and Priority Records/Capital Music Group GM William “Fuzzy” West, among others.
Moderated by Chapter Executive Director’s Qiana Conley (L.A.) and Jeriel Johnson (Washington, D.C.), additional topics like adapting one's craft given the effects of the pandemic, the creator’s voice in the fight against racial injustice and how to promote care given the stress on the culture were also addressed.
