Urban Grandstand Digital Volume 2, Issue 2 [Savvy Girl Money Edition] | Page 16

Did I do enough to not lose people. With each production, it’s definitely a battle with self. It’s ongoing, but I’m appreciative of the effort that everyone puts into it, and when your city backs you up, it feels great.

U.G. Digital Mag: I can feel that. Preparing for yesterday with Cocoa, I did so much all week to prep, and then when yesterday morning rolled around, I was running circles. My wife couldn’t figure out my nervousness, but it’s something different. To have a new studio, and immediately have someone come from outside of the city to do this. It’s major in every way.

Philly Weeden: When you told me, I said it’s monumental. It’s hard to get them to do interviews at all, let alone come on a show.

U.G. Digital Mag: The other piece was inviting people here to the meet & greet. This industry has grown to the point that nobody wants to work together. You can’t get ahead for people not wanting to help. My thought was let’s bring in people who are in similar areas, and help them make that connection. Get face to face and say how are you. Take a moment to get advice, and just take in the wisdom. The giants don’t do that, so we’re trying to change that aspect of the business. That was the whole premise for doing that. Nobody else will share that type of opportunity.

Philly Weeden: They definitely won’t.

U.G. Digital Mag: She was ready for it though. It was an experience that she appreciated as well.

Philly Weeden: That’s amazing man.

U.G. Digital Mag: I really do appreciate you though bro! I know you shouted your link for tickets. Showtime is May 28th at 6pm. Anything else to speak on?

Philly Weeden: I have 3 productions in the works right now. Viewers can subscribe to my email subscription, and they’ll find out everything first.

U.G. Digital Mag: I know first hand man. I see the emails coming through. If I don’t tell you anything else, know that I’m meticulously watching what you do, and it inspires me. It’s through what you’re doing that I’m learning more. I’m thoroughly watching and learning. My number one thing is support, and unity. We support Philly man!

Philly Weeden: I appreciate you James.
