Inside the Playbook: Clinton Sparks on Mixtape Culture

Clinton Sparks breaks down what it really means to do it for the culture.

In this clip from The Manager’s Playbook, Clinton reflects on supporting Clipse’s We Got It For Cheap mixtape series without profiting, spending his own money to press and distribute CDs, and why protecting trust mattered more than chasing a quick win.

He also talks about refusing payola, building Mixunit.com, helping DJ Drama and DJ Khaled, and the late-night DJ Kay Slay story that turned into a street classic.

A real music business lesson on integrity, mixtape culture, radio, networking, and staying focused on the mission.

Simply put, a conversation like this doesn't come cheap.
