"Grit and perseverance are the reasons I’m still here” - DJ Drama   DJ Drama is a quintessential example of the resilience it requires to achieve longevity and lasting success in the music industry.  Drama was at the top of the game as a DJ, putting out mixtapes that launched artists' careers and elevated the sound of hip-hop during the early 2000's.  But when the music industry collapsed, mixtapes took the blame - and Drama was the FBI’s poster child for selling illegal music via mixtapes. He lost everything.   Without grit and perseverance, that could have been the end of Drama's career.  However, winners understand this critical truth: there is no straight path to success and long-term greatness is achieved by those who are creative, strategic, resilient, and driven.  Despite Drama's setbacks, which he elaborates on in our conversation, he remains one of the most wildly influential people in music culture today, even winning a Grammy Award in 2022 for Best Rap Album.    To win big, you must be prepared to navigate setbacks and maintain the focus and motivation to KEEP MOVING FORWARD.     Most try to avoid drama in their lives, but if you listen to hip hop, this is one Drama you can't avoid.
