Finally!!

Hi All,
 I have had the privilege of knowing and working with some of the greatest entertainers in my lifetime. Thanks to my mother, Mallia "Queen of Funk" Franklin of Parliament-Funkadelic, she basically raised me in the music industry. I was born into it. Bootsy Collins is my Godfather, Frankie "Cash" Waddy", Larry Graham and Sly Stone changed my diapers. George Clinton and his family lived with us. I witnessed many anthems like "Flashlight, One Nation Under A Groove and Atomic Dog" be created right in front of my eyes. Rick James, The GAP Band, EW&F... You name it, they were around. I also learned a lot about the business through her experiences, other artists that have been in my life and even my own. When I was younger, I wanted to be the artist... the singer... the star and even had a few opportunity to pursue it, but I was a little afraid of the uncertainty and fickle, and most times shady nature of the business. I went behind the scenes. Did choreography for artists, photography and developed images for singers and bands. I was great at the visuals. I went into management, not artists management, but hospitality. Did that for about a decade. I moved to Los Angeles about five years ago and really stared to get creative and let my ideas blossom. I was in the middle of writing the memoirs of my mom and her P-Funk female comrades and looked forward to developing other things. All through the years, artists that I knew have asked me to engage in what they were doing career-wise. My first love is/was always the creative aspect, but my natural managerial nature always seemed to rear its head. There were two things that I knew. One was how to get things done in a business manor, the other was the tricks, bulls**t and wheeling and dealing of the entertainment industry. In 2010, I lost my beautiful mother, she was a struggling singer all of her life. She never got her just due. Her favorite line to singers that she knew was, "Go ask Seth... He knows his s**t when it comes to that business." I also lost Garry "StarChild" Shider (P-Funk guitarist) that same year. He would always say, "Seth... You are going to be the next Clive Davis." I never understood it. I never embraced it. I can't even say that i necessarily agree with it. Since their passing, my creative life has exploded like a firecracker on the 4th of July. I have realized that i don't have to understand it... It just is.
