This week on The R&B Money Podcast, Tank and J Valentine welcome the multi-hyphenate Lydia Asrat. From her early beginnings in the Bay Area to her rise as a force in the music industry, Lydia shares her inspiring journey of perseverance and passion.
Growing up in an Ethiopian household, Lydia's love for music was evident from a young age. She recounts the pivotal moments that shaped her path, from declining a life-changing opportunity at 14 to navigating her way through college at LMU while pursuing her dreams.
Lydia takes us behind the scenes of her internships and work with high-profile artists, sharing the invaluable lessons she learned along the way. She also emphasizes the importance of representation and empowering the next generation of Black women in the music industry, drawing inspiration from mentors like Ethiopia Habtemariam.
