The music industry witnesses thousands of talents coming to the limelight every day and numerous others being lost in the competition. With the advent of digital media, the music industry has become a highly competitive space for budding artists.
Despite all the challenges that this space throws at a newbie, the industry always has a place for original talent. Rapper and producer flipking believes he is a perfect example. The 25-year-old artist has been storming the clubbing scene in Los Angeles for the last 5 years and last year dropped his debut single as an independent artist.
The struggles and challenges that flipking overcame in his brief career in the industry, make him a case study for any aspiring artist. Moving to LA at 19, he soon had a reality check when he found himself homeless and sleeping on the street. He still had dreams of making it big in the industry. He landed his first opportunity to perform at a local club and he nailed it. The crowd kept growing all night. This was his entrance into the live music scene.
Currently, as the resident DJ of three elite clubs in LA, he believes that diligence and persistence are the keys to success. He talks about setting strong goals and having stronger willpower to fulfill them. If a genuine talent is ready to give his heart and soul to pursue his passion and chase it relentlessly until he accomplishes the goal, then he becomes unstoppable in the industry and he wants to share his real-life story to inspire others.
