Life & Work with Jay Kelly of Atlanta

Today we’d like to introduce you to Jay Kelly.

Hi Jay, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Started as a artist 2012
Went viral Became friends with DJ Paul of 36mafia
The late Mac miller then
I started my management career with a Rockband called The Bunny The Bear in 2015. Later I tried working with a model building her from the bottom which helped me as a manager in hiphop world.
I began to use my resources
and became management for Sukihana,
She was my first big artist before she became big. I was there through the process
I currently manage Suki, Slim Jxmmi, Shamar ‘Big Marco’ McCoy, Sapphire Blazee and Fendi Da Rappa,

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
It wasn’t a smooth road. It has definitely been interesting. I love the journey of it all. Starting from the bottom having to gorilla our way through the industry constantly trying to make people believe in the artist just as much as I did.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
Artist Management. Specialized in helping artists matriculate. It’s an amazing feeling Starting from the ground to now managing Slim Jxmmi an A-List diamond selling artist.
What set me apart is, I don’t believe in people telling me what I can’t do. If it’s a will, it’s a way and GOD gave us free will so as I stated earlier, I gorilla my way through.

Are there any books, apps, podcasts or blogs that help you do your best?
No
